Chapter 513: The Collapse of the Majestic Image, Is the Contract a Truce Agreement? (1/2)

Chapter 513 The collapse of the majestic image, is the contract an armistice agreement?

Harry was stunned for a moment, then looked at Dumbledore in astonishment, his eyes full of disbelief.

"You mean... Aaron came last night because you arranged it? How is this possible?"

"Under normal circumstances, it is indeed impossible. He is a strong man, but he is not ordinary... cautious.

But last night was an opportunity, and I just went with the flow."

"What exactly is going on?" Harry asked with a puzzled face.

"Ever since you dreamed that Arthur was attacked by Voldemort in the Department of Mysteries, I knew that he started planning the prophecy. After all, he only got half of the prophecy more than ten years ago, and the other half was very important to him.

At that time, I took the time to go to the Department of Mysteries and cast a magic on the prophecy. This was inspired by Miss Adrian Crane, which allowed me to remotely monitor the prophecy through the prophecy. Even if the prophecy is destroyed, the magic can last for a period of time."

"Remote monitoring?" Harry murmured, and then suddenly realized: "That means that from the moment we found the prophecy last night, our every move was in your sight. "In the line?"

"You can say that." Dumbledore said bluntly, "The Order of the Phoenix has special means of communication. After you dreamed that Sirius was captured, Aaron notified Snape, and he notified the Order of the Phoenix as quickly as possible to confirm the situation. "

"He...didn't delay?"

"Why do you think so?" Dumbledore frowned slightly, "Snape and Sirius have some grievances, but this does not mean that he does not distinguish between public and private.

I must tell you solemnly that you can trust Snape at any time. "

Harry was silent. He lacked trust in Professor Snape, so he rode the Thestral to the Ministry of Magic.

But if Professor Snape did not delay, then what happened last night was purely his own fault, and Sirius paid for his impulsiveness.

"And Kreacher." Harry found a reason to defend himself, "I spoke to Kreacher through Umbridge's hearth, and he told me that Sirius was not in the Order of the Phoenix."

"He lied." Dumbledore said calmly, "House elves will be loyal to their masters, but you are not his master, he can lie to you."

"You mean he wants me to go to the Ministry of Magic?"

"I'm afraid so." Dumbledore sighed, "Kreacher is loyal to the Black family, but the Black family is not only Sirius.

Narcissa Malfoy, Bellatrix's sister, Sirius's sister can also be his loyal object.

He can't betray Sirius, and he has never left Grimmauld Place, but Sirius is too indifferent to house elves, and said the word "get lost" when he cursed.

This gave him the opportunity to leave Grimmauld Place and find other members of the Black family he is willing to be loyal to."

"But he can't provide any important information, right?" Harry said with difficulty.

"A lot of information can be inferred from trivial things. For example, you and Sirius have a father-son relationship, so you dreamed that he was captured in the Department of Mysteries.

Yesterday he injured Buckbeak. When Sirius was taking care of it upstairs, you went to the Order of the Phoenix to confirm the situation."

Bang!

Harry slammed the table angrily, "It's all his fault. He is a disloyal and lying guy, and Hermione has always asked us to be nicer to him."

"We should be nicer to him." Dumbledore said noncommittally, "The personality of the house elf is shaped by the wizard. I also reminded Sirius that he should respect Kreacher more, but he didn't seem to listen to me."

"Don't say that to him." Harry said angrily.

"But Kreacher does deserve mercy. He is forced to obey the orders of a master who thinks he is insignificant. His life is as miserable as Dobby's."

Harry gritted his teeth and felt a blockage in his chest.

"How do you know this?" Harry asked tiredly.

"Acquire Divine Thoughts." Dumbledore said calmly, "I used this magic to learn all this after Snape notified the Order of the Phoenix.

But it was too late then. When Snape wanted to tell you that Sirius was safe, he couldn't find you in the Forbidden Forest.

He was worried that you still believed that Sirius was in Voldemort's hands, so he contacted the Order of the Phoenix again.

At that time, Lupin, Moody, Sirius, Kingsley, Nymphadora and I were all at the headquarters.

Sirius was too concerned about you. He didn't know if you had arrived at the Ministry of Magic, so he wanted to support you immediately. Others had the same idea, and only Snape suggested that he stay at the headquarters."

"Then why did you come so late?" Harry asked blankly.

"This is my idea." Dumbledore said softly, "Voldemort wants the prophecy. Before you get the prophecy, you are still safe, and I set a magic on the prophecy to control your every move.

We were ready for Apparition at that time and could rush over at any time.

But before I rush over, I want to see your current level. After all, this is the first actual combat of Dumbledore's Army. We must admit that your fighting power and courage are indeed gratifying to us. "

Harry stood up and asked unacceptably: "We almost died there, and Neville was tortured by Bellatrix with the Cruciatus Curse. You just watched it?"

"Calm down, Harry, of course we won't watch it.

When we were about to Apparate, Miss Granger took out the flintlock.

I have a good relationship with Nicolas Flamel and have a certain understanding of alchemy. That gun is an absolute magic weapon with inestimable value, especially those enchanted bullets, which are comparable to the full force of the magician. "

"What does this mean?" Harry asked impatiently.

"It shows Gaius's background." Dumbledore said in a deep voice, "It also shows how much Aaron cares about Miss Granger.

This makes me think that this is an opportunity, Aaron might get involved, so I decided to wait a little longer on the premise of ensuring your safety. "

Harry's eyes widened immediately, and Dumbledore's fair and majestic image collapsed in his heart, "Professor, you... is it that serious?"

Dumbledore smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I know it's not very kind to do this, but I have no choice.

The Order of the Phoenix does not have an advantage over the Death Eaters. We have sacrificed too many people in previous battles, including your parents and Neville's parents, and this is just a small part.

For this, we need a strong ally. I have been thinking about this since Aaron's first year of school, but I have never found a suitable opportunity.

His attitude is very clear, he will not participate in disputes in the wizarding world, nor will he support any party. "

Harry nodded, not quite understanding, and understood Dumbledore.

"Since he's here, why don't you show up?"

"This is my little selfishness." Dumbledore did not hide it, "Aaron Gaius has been keeping a low profile in his five years at Hogwarts.

He obviously has a standard far beyond his peers, but he is always lowering his presence.

In the first year, all the professors were excited that Hogwarts welcomed a genius wizard. He was obviously a Slytherin, but he was able to handle the relationship with classmates in the other three colleges. Even Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, and Professor Sprout asked me to transfer him to another school more than once.

In the second year, the three deans were much less enthusiastic about transferring him to another school, but they still admired this genius very much.

But after the third year, many people would think of Aaron as a genius when they mentioned him, but where was the genius? It was just pure academic performance.

He used time to reduce his presence to the level of an ordinary academic master, but the professor's appreciation and classmates' respect only increased. "

"Hiss!"

Harry took a breath of cold air, it seems to be true.

Aaron is very strong, and he is very capable in all aspects.

But if you really look into it, his popularity and influence are not as good as his "savior", but if he wants to, it is not difficult to get a hundred people to respond.

Thinking of this, a picture appeared in Harry's mind. He was in front of him with various titles, blocking the open and hidden arrows from all directions, and not far behind him, Aaron Gaius lay down easily, quietly developing.

"I want to see the real him and understand his true strength, so that I can make arrangements later." Dumbledore continued, "He really did not disappoint us, and even shocked us.

Let's not talk about his strength for the time being. I have never seen the prophecy book and the magic props that can control dozens of puppet ninjas when wearing the mask. "

"After that, Barty Jr. arrived. He gave up the chance to leave and teleported Hermione away.

This made me feel very relieved. Although the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend may have played a big role, it at least showed that he was a man of affection and righteousness, and I could entrust him with the heavy responsibility in the future."

"After that, Voldemort came and revealed the secret of the Gaius family." Dumbledore said with emotion, "At that time, I really understood why the Gaius family had to remain neutral.

The Dumbledore family also had some records about the four families, but not much. Between the lines, there was only respect and fear.

I thought it was because of the huge network of people in the four families, and one move would affect the whole body, but last night I realized that with the family background of their descendants of gods, whoever they support will win. "

"That's great." Harry said excitedly, "Aaron must be on our side."

"It's not that simple." Dumbledore said, "Unless the development direction of the magic world is a road of no return, they will never intervene.

This is their ancestral precept, to prevent future generations from imposing their own will on the entire magic world.

It can only be said that the ancestors of the Gaius family were too far-sighted and suppressed the ambitions of their descendants. Otherwise, the magic world would definitely be a strict class rule now, because no one can stop their four wizard families, and there won't be many people who oppose them. "

"Too exaggerated!" Harry murmured.

"You don't understand the power and influence of the God of Magic. Merlin is still the belief of most wizards!

He left no offspring, but the Merlin Knights, who were established by the magic world based on his name, have a very high status. Even the Minister of Magic has to respect them, not to mention the descendants of the God of Magic.

You also see how much Voldemort values ​​him. For any wizard who pursues eternity, the secret of becoming a god is an irresistible temptation. "

Harry nodded a little blankly, and then asked: "Since he has been dragged into the water, you can just train him to fight Voldemort! "

"He doesn't need my training. The Gaius family has always attached great importance to the training of heirs.

And from what I know about him, he won't face Voldemort head-on unless he is absolutely sure."

"You are really good at judging people." Harry secretly smacked his lips, "I think so too.

But even if you calculated him like this, he wouldn't want to kill you, right?

Anyway, you arrived in time last night and helped him out, preventing him from signing the humiliating contract with Voldemort."

Dumbledore's mouth twitched, and his face became very wonderful, "Things may be a little different from what you think."

"What's different?"

"Do you really think it was a humiliating contract?" Dumbledore asked in a profound way, "Harry, you are very smart, but still a little too naive.

In fact, the contract has nothing to do with the word humiliation. It is more like a truce agreement that Aaron and his twin brother forced Voldemort to sign.

What did he say at that time... Let you go, and don't bother him within a year. I have to say he is very rational.

After getting the prophecy, Voldemort satisfied his curiosity. The most basic goal has been achieved, but to achieve a greater goal, it takes time to integrate the power, no more, no less.

When Aaron took out the contract, two choices were placed in front of Voldemort.

Either fight to the death. He may be able to kill one of the two Gaius, but the other will become his future rival, and they will fight to the death.

Or take a year off. Aaron's brother said that he would leave the wizarding world to do things, which means that after he integrates the power, Aaron will be alone and easier to control.

Harry, if it were you, what would you choose? "

"The second one." Harry said without hesitation. "The first one is too risky and there is no benefit."

"Yes! Voldemort thinks so too." Dumbledore said, and then changed the subject, "But it was Aaron who led Voldemort to think so.

A year of truce will allow him to get out of last night's predicament and get out of it unscathed.

As for a year later... hehe! There are only the first and countless times to sign the contract.

By then, he will think of a way to make Voldemort temporarily focus his energy on other things, such as the Order of the Phoenix. I guarantee that Voldemort will not be able to refuse the big cake he draws.

At worst, do you think it is really difficult to avoid Voldemort with his IQ? "
