Chapter Seven Hundred and Fiftieth Eight Back to the Past
George laughed, he sighed, "It looks like you're doing well. I've seen your memory magic too, and I'm very inspired."
When Lockhart left Hogwarts, he left his notes to George. George has always been interested in changing his memory, and he also got a lot of inspiration from Lockhart's notes.
"Indeed." Lockhart nodded. "As I continued to improve my memory magic, I returned to what I was good at, and I began to understand that I was also a gifted wizard."
"For me, the past can be changed, and changing the memory of the past changes the past."
Lockhart said slowly, "It took me a year to strengthen my memory magic enough to modify people's memories, and I changed the past. Then, I went back to the past."
"certainly,"
"It's not really going back in time, it's just for me," he explained.
He said slowly, "I went back to America, and I found the old wizard who helped the village get rid of the werewolf. We met again, and I gave him back my memory and became friends with him."
His tone was a bit sighed, when he gained the power to change the past, the past really changed in his hands.
"That's not easy."
George sighed, "A series of memory changes, this is a very difficult technique. I guess you implanted fuzzy memories."
Lockhart nodded, "It's true, the old wizard's magic power is stronger than mine. It is not only troublesome to implant a complete story into memory, but the story must also be exciting."
He smiled and said, "In my new memory, I became a novelist based on materials. After I became friends with him, he agreed to lend me his story. I gave him a portion of the manuscript fee."
"That's a wonderful story," he emphasized.
"In addition to the old wizard in America, and the witch who expelled the ghost of Wan Lun, in the year after that, I have traveled all over the road I have traveled. I went back to the past and changed all my past."
He had a big smile on his face, "Everything has changed, the past has been changed."
"That's a huge project."
George said with emotion, "Although I don't know what to say, you are indeed a powerful wizard."
He could imagine how thrilling Lockhart's plain words were. Using memory magic to change his past is an amazing move.
He can't rate, this approach is right or wrong. All in all, Lockhart is doing well now, and he doesn't need to feel sorry for those wizards he doesn't know.
Lockhart drank another cup of tea, "I know, it's not fair."
He continued, "But this is the way to make my life safe. I can't deal with the past. I can only try to make amends. As you can see, I've always been selfish."
"And after that, how did you get to St Mungo's Hospital and how did you become a therapist?"
Hermione just wanted to quickly skip the terrifying topic just now. She couldn't imagine how terrifying it would be to use magic to change the past.
"Oh!"
Lockhart began to recall, "After I changed my past, I finally relaxed. I have been reborn, I can't go back to those days in the past, I don't plan to get other people's memories, I want to start Create my own memory."
When he changed his past, he was really completely reborn, he was completely different from the past. He was reborn, in every sense.
He smiled. "At that time, I started to think about what I should be doing. I tried to find my greatest strength, where I excelled."
When the freshman Lockhart began to think about his future, he found his purpose without much effort.
He laughed, "There is no doubt that I am a master at the use of memory magic.
At this point, I guess, I may only lose to one or two wizards. "
He looked at George, who was the only great wizard he had ever believed in.
"In memory magic, Dumbledore is definitely not as good as you." George said with certainty.
Dumbledore, at least from yesterday's defense, cannot fully shape a person's memory. Otherwise, he might have rescued Neville's parents long ago.
Lockhart smiled even brighter. "I know, at least in this area, that I've really become a great wizard."
"Since I plan to start a new life, I naturally don't plan to give up my achievements, I plan to carry forward these abilities."
He smiled happily, "So, I started to think about where I can use my abilities. Where can I use my abilities. Without spending too much effort, I thought, I Can be a therapist."
He blinked, "Maybe you may not believe it, but I am indeed a very good person. During my journey, I actually helped a lot of people. In addition to simple medical treatment, more often I I also know how to inspire confidence. I can change people's memories and give them new courage to live."
"During my wandering time, I helped a lot of Muggles. I found that for me, the easiest and most satisfying thing to do is to change a person's cognition and life. So, I'm back in the wizarding world again."
"And that's how you got to St Mungo's?" Harry asked. Like a story that ends suddenly, the process is a bit too simple
Lockhart laughed, "Why not?"
"Life is like this, when you think about it, just do it. There is no legendary experience, and there will be no sudden enlightenment. I suddenly found that I have this ability, I have this strength, and it is natural to use it as a job. thing."
"congratulations."
George sincerely congratulated Lockhart, "Compared to when you just left Hogwarts, you are really reborn now."
"Of course." Lockhart laughed and lowered his voice. "When I just left Hogwarts, I didn't even know if I should continue to live."
His tone became cheerful, "Now, I am living well, and I plan to live longer. If I can make some progress in memory magic, it is not impossible for me to be remembered in the annals of history."
"It's very possible." George said with certainty.
"Well, are you interested in making your career bigger?" he suggested, "Hogwarts will offer courses related to psychological counseling in the future, and I think you will be very suitable for this position."
