The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

Was Dumbledore a good man?

In order to get rid of Voldemort, he could even sacrifice himself. From the perspective of the wizarding world, he was willing to die in order for the wizarding world to be freed from the terrifying shadow of Voldemort. In this way, Dumbledore is not only a good man, but even a great man.

Why was Harry’s mother, Lily Evans, able to keep Harry from Voldemort in his heyday? Why should she? It is based on the Blood Protection Spell, referred to as the Blood Curse. This magic is not an ordinary spell, you can use it whenever you want, it has strict requirements for the conditions of use and the casting time. It’s too late to use it when the danger is imminent, and only before the danger arrives, there is enough time to cast this magic.

Solim knew very well why Voldemort had gone to kill Harry. Because of Professor Trelawney’s prophecy, when Snape was a Death Eater loyal to Voldemort, he overheard the prophecy and told his master. It was Dumbledore’s younger brother, Aberforth, who threw him out. Will Dumbledore, who was at the scene, not know about the prophecy that Snape overheard? Will he, Dumbledore, a great wizard, not be able to stop Snape?

Solim believed that this was all the result of Dumbledore’s intentional indulgence. Otherwise, the night Trelawney made the prophecy, he Snape would not have escaped from Dumbledore’s hands, and Voldemort would not have known that there was a prophecy about him.

What kind of role did Dumbledore play in the tragedy of the Potter family, about this, although Solim has some speculation, but there is no evidence, and even if there is evidence that Dumbledore played a dishonorable role in the tragedy of the Potter family, what can be done? Besides, whether the Potters dies or not does it matter to him Solim. Solim has always believed that Voldemort’s death is an inevitable result, and the tragedy of the Potter family only accelerated the time of Voldemort’s demise, but the sacrifice of the Potter family is not meaningless, it has at least given the wizarding world of Ying Country more than ten years of respite, and also allowed ordinary wizards who have been oppressed by Voldemort and his henchmen for a long time to spend more than ten years of peace.

As for Quirrell, it’s even more revealing. Of course Dumbledore knew Quirrell was wrong, but what did Quirrell do when he deliberately attacked Harry on the pitch? The headmaster of Hogwarts did nothing, Quirrell was also a student of Hogwarts, that is, his Dumbledore’s student, he watched his former student being possessed and step by step to death, but he watched coldly.

Did Dumbledore have the power to save Quirrell? Does he have the power to drive away Voldemort, who possessed him? Solim is not clear about these questions, but Solim is clear that even if it can be done, the price will be enormous.

One of the reasons why Dumbledore used the Philosopher’s Stone to set up this bureau for Voldemort was to understand Voldemort’s current specific state. Another is to see clearly how Harry Potter will make choices when his life is at stake, the more critical the situation, the more clearly he can see a person’s character, and exercising Harry is actually secondary.

Harry Potter is the “savior”, and wizards believe that he will finally defeat Voldemort and end the long darkness of the wizarding world. But did Harry Potter himself have such qualifications? Does he have such qualities to carry the hopes of wizards?

Like this time: under the threat of Voldemort, will Harry bow down like a coward? Or will it rise up like a fighter? What Dumbledore wanted to see was Harry’s choice in this situation. As long as Harry is not a coward, Dumbledore naturally has a way to use Harry as a banner to rally the hearts and minds of the people to resist Voldemort, who is preparing to make a comeback.

For this purpose, Quirrell did not care whether he lived or died. Watching his former student die, he didn’t tell everyone about Quirrell’s rebellion against Voldemort.

Is this something a good person would do?

Solim was not as naïve as Harry. He doesn’t have to distinguish a person as good or bad, people are very complex animals. Just like Dumbledore, he is undoubtedly a good man from the point of view of fighting Voldemort. But from Quirrell’s point of view, watching coldly throughout the whole process, sitting and watching Quirrell helplessly step by step towards death, such Dumbledore seems to be a ruthless person who can achieve his own goals without caring about the life or death of others.

Pure “good” and pure “evil” simply do not exist in the creature of “man”, which is a contradictory creature. There is both a good side and an evil side, and chaos is the essence of man.

It is certainly shameful for an evil person who does nothing evil and likes to take the pain of others as his own pleasure, but does an extremely honest and extremely responsible person also make the people around him unhappy? When you have a person who keeps pointing out your shortcomings and constantly urging you to correct your shortcomings, will it be annoying to make people feel bored, so as to want to keep people away from this kind of person?

Solim didn’t think much of Dumbledore because of his death to Quirrell. He wasn’t an extreme Gryffindor, and Quirrell’s affairs had nothing to do with Solim, and he didn’t care about Quirrell’s life or death.

Although Solim knew what kind of choice Harry would make when he first met Voldemort, Dumbledore did not know, he needed to see Harry’s choice clearly, he needed to see Harry’s character clearly. Because Harry will play a crucial role in Dumbledore’s plan.

“Okay, let’s put those temptations aside and get into the real conversation, Professor.”

“Solim, you know what? When you give me the Gunt family’s ring…”

“…… Temporarily…… It’s ‘temporary’, Professor, and there’s a big difference. Solim reminded Dumbledore to be careful with the wording.

“Well, it’s ‘temporary’, I didn’t sleep that night after you handed it over to me, and I kept thinking about you, or your grandfather, what your purpose is, what you want from me. Now it’s just the two of us, can you answer my question? I don’t think what you want is my poor Fox’s tears. ”

Solim was not surprised that Dumbledore doubted his purpose in giving him the Resurrection Stone, because anyone who was personally doubted would. Such a precious thing, are afraid that others will remember, these two are good, take the initiative to give it to others, although it is only “temporary”.

“Professor,” Solim thought for a moment, thinking that it would be better to open up and say, after all, there were some questions Solim would have to ask Dumbledore sooner or later. “You searched for the whereabouts of the Deathly Hallows with that one in your early years, and you did. You must know them all, right? ”

Is it really for the Elder Wand? Dumbledore thought for a moment.

“In the early years… Huh,” Dumbledore chuckled, “Solim, you know, it’s people who are young, and young people—all hot-blooded and whimsical, and Gellert and I were trying to gain strength, although it seemed like a cheesy pursuit now. With that, Dumbledore took out his Elder Wand.

This was the first time Solim had seen the Elder Wand, fifteen inches in hand—an extremely long wand. Because the vast majority of wands are between ten and thirteen inches. In front of this legendary wand, Solim was also attracted to the attention and seriously looked at the famous “Destiny Staff”.

“People say that the owner of the Elder Wand is invincible. But what? Dumbledore sighed, “Which of his masters has a good end?” ”

“It’s a really powerful wand, very powerful, and I can still say that. But it’s not necessarily better than that wand of yours. Dumbledore glanced at the ring on Solim’s right hand.

“Kidding, Headmaster.” Solim retorted: “I do not deny that Mr. Ollivander is a brilliant wandmaker. However, I don’t think even the dragon wand he made would be stronger than the old wand. ”

“I’m talking about your other wand. Mr. Selwyn. Dumbledore smiled and pointed to Solim’s right hand.
