Chapter 613: Saving the Longbottoms, and Losing His Mind After Waking up (1/2)

Chapter 613 Treating the Longbottoms, and his mentality collapsed after waking up

Augusta looked at Gandalf helplessly, pretending to be calm and asked: "What are you going to do?"

She has lived for most of her life. Although her strength is mediocre, she still has good eyesight. Just the barrier created by Gandalf made her clearly realize that the man in front of her is definitely not someone she can deal with.

She definitely can't beat him, and the way to ask for help is blocked, so she simply gave up resisting.

"If I say I'm here to treat the Longbottoms, do you believe it?"

"No." Augusta said coldly, "A stranger suddenly broke into the room of two mentally disabled patients who even made the doctors helpless and said he wanted to cure them. It's ridiculous no matter how you look at it."

"That's right." Gandalf snapped his fingers and restored his original appearance.

"You..."

Augusta was shocked and looked at Aaron in disbelief.

"Let me introduce myself, Aaron Gaius, a friend of Neville Longbottom, you may have heard of me."

Augusta nodded blankly, "Neville has told me about you more than once.

Wait, you are lying to me, Aaron Gaius should be studying at Hogwarts at this time."

"It is not difficult for me to create a substitute." Aaron said half-truthfully, "What you saw just now was just a necessary disguise. I don't want the mysterious man to know that I left Hogwarts."

"Then you came here...really to save my son and daughter-in-law?" Augusta asked hopefully.

Over the past decade, she has tried various methods to make her son and daughter-in-law recover, but each time she failed. Even Dumbledore could not help. After a long time, she had to accept her fate.

But Aaron is different. She also knows the background of the Gaius family. What is difficult for a therapist may not be a big deal for them.

"I need helpers, helpers who can fight the Death Eaters." Aaron said bluntly, "No one is more suitable than the former members of the Order of the Phoenix.

The Longbottom couple are both Aurors, so they should be quite strong. After being caught, they would rather endure the torture of the Cruciatus Curse than reveal any secrets of the Order of the Phoenix. They are strong-willed and completely meet my requirements."

"You want helpers?" Augusta frowned slightly, but soon thought of something and whispered, "Is this what Dumbledore meant?"

"No, this is what I meant.

Dumbledore prepared a detailed plan to defeat the mysterious man, and Harry is acting according to this plan.

And I want helpers for my own plan. I want to accumulate as much strength as possible for the final decisive battle."

Augusta felt that it was powerful and wanted to ask clearly.

But thinking of her son and daughter-in-law, she suppressed her curiosity.

"Are you sure you can cure them?"

"Of course, otherwise why am I here?

But before that, I need you to do something."

"What?"

Aaron smiled mysteriously, then took out a piece of paper and drew up a contract.

"I need to be paid for saving people. I cure them, and they will work for me before I kill the mysterious man."

"That's very fair." Augusta said immediately, "Just treat them! I will persuade them to agree."

"You don't need to persuade them. If they don't agree, they will just continue to lie in bed." Aaron said lightly, and Augusta's face turned pale instantly.

"Haha, just kidding, just kidding.

For Neville's sake, I can take a little loss.

If they don't want to help me, I won't force them, but they can't leave this ward before everything is settled." Aaron shrugged and said, "Leaking the news will not benefit any of us.

In addition, this contract in my hand is for you. After all, I didn't expect you to be here."

Augusta was stunned for a moment, took the contract and read it.

"A confidentiality agreement. You can't disclose what happened today to a fourth person in any way without my permission.

Sign it, you can see the treatment process, this is how I treat them..."

Before Aaron finished speaking, Augusta wrote his name on the contract.

"Can I start the treatment?"

"Yes." Aaron smiled and nodded, then walked to Frank Longbottom's bed.

"Wait a minute." Augusta suddenly thought of something and asked nervously, "If the treatment fails, they won't be in any danger, right?"

"You can rest assured about this. I still have a bottom line.

I am 100% sure that I can cure them, but I have to study it first." Aaron calmed the old man's emotions, rolled up his sleeves and put his hand on Frank's forehead.

Then a soul was pulled out by him. Unlike Sirius, Frank's soul was particularly dim.

Augusta saw this scene, and at the same time, he was worried and relieved.

Extracting the soul was too unbelievable, but because of this she also saw some hope of healing.

"How is it?"

"As I expected, too cruel physical torture will affect the health of the soul.

And their souls have almost lost their vitality. You can refer to the state of a normal person being dragged down by illness."

"I know, but how to save them?" Augusta asked anxiously.

"For others, this is an unsolvable problem, but for me, healing the soul is not a difficult task." Aaron said calmly, whether it is the soul power of the sheep spell or the healing power of the horse spell, they can solve the soul problem.

The next moment, a sheep pattern appeared in Aaron's pupils, and a group of transparent soul power emerged in his hands.

As the soul power was injected into Frank's soul, the dim soul gradually became brighter, and at the same time his body also showed a painful color.

"Wait, my son, what happened to him?"

"He just remembered some painful memories. After all, he was suffering from the Cruciatus Curse before he lay on the bed." Aaron explained patiently, "Wait a moment, it will be fine soon."

After more than half a minute, Frank's soul returned to the level of a normal person. Aaron made a prompt decision and stuffed his soul back into his body.

Frank took a deep breath and sat up with a roar, "You damn beasts, I will never surrender, you can't expect anything."

However, when he finished scolding people, he found that there were no Death Eaters around, but his mother and a handsome young man he had never seen before. He was also confused.

"What's going on?"

"He's back, my son is finally back." Augusta cried with joy and hugged her son tightly, fearing that he would slip away from her arms.

"Thank you, Mr. Gaius, thank you very much." Augusta said with sincere gratitude.

"You're welcome. I'm not helping for nothing."

"But it's basically the same as helping for nothing."

"Mom, what happened? How did you get so old?

And why am I here? Shouldn't Bella and the others be torturing me with the Cruciatus Curse?" Frank was full of doubts. Then he thought of something and asked hurriedly, "Where's Alice? Where is Alice?"

"Next to you." Aaron said.

Frank was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at the other bed. His wife was looking at the ceiling in a daze, as if she didn't recognize anything.

"This is St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Sorrow. You and your wife were tortured like this by the Cruciatus Curse.

Oh, by the way, it has been almost sixteen years since that day."

"Sixteen years?" Frank widened his eyes in astonishment, "Is this true?"

Augusta nodded repeatedly, "Thanks to Mr. Gaius, if it weren't for him, you don't know how long you would have to lie in bed."

Frank still found it hard to accept this change, but his mother's appearance had indeed changed a lot, and he had to accept this reality.

"Mr. Gaius, since you can save me, can you save Alice too?"

"Frank." Augusta shook her head slightly at him, "Let Aaron rest for a while, healing you consumes soul power."

"I'm not as tired as you think." Aaron smiled and walked to Alice.

This time, a horse pattern appeared in his pupils, and the blue-purple healing energy covered Alice. After a while, her face became more red, and the confusion in her pupils disappeared.

"Ah!!!"

A sharp cry came out of her mouth, and it was obvious that she had not recovered from the torture.

"Calm down, calm down, Alice." Frank held her in his arms, "Everything is over, everything is over, we are safe."

"Mrs. Longbottom, I don't want to spoil the mood, but..." Aaron smiled embarrassedly, "There will be plenty of time for family reunion in the future, and call Neville by the way."

"Neville." Alice heard the name, tears flowed unconsciously, "Is my son okay?"

Snap!

Aaron snapped his fingers, and seven boys in wizard robes appeared in front of them.

Alice recognized that this was her child at a glance, and couldn't help but reach out to touch it, but her fingers passed through without any hindrance.

"This is an illusion." Aaron sighed, "My memory is pretty good. What you saw was Neville Longbottom from the first grade to the seventh grade.

As for what he looked like before he was eleven, I really don't know."

"What about now?"

"He is still studying at Hogwarts and is about to graduate."

"That's good. We can still catch up with his graduation ceremony." Alice smiled rarely.

"The situation may not be as good as you think. Hogwarts is now under the control of the Death Eaters." Aaron said bluntly, dropping an atomic bomb directly in the hearts of the Longbottom couple.

The two of them lost their composure instantly, and the joy of recovery disappeared.

"What happened? Why does it feel like the whole world has changed after a good night's sleep?" Alice said unnaturally.

"Because we slept for too long, sixteen years!"

"Ms. Augusta, please explain to your son and daughter-in-law what has happened in recent years and the current situation of the British magic world."

"Give me half an hour." Augusta said, and then briefly told Frank and Alice about the major events that happened during their hospitalization.

The two listened patiently, their faces kept changing, especially when they learned that Dumbledore was dead and the Death Eaters occupied the Ministry of Magic, they almost collapsed.

Then came the policies issued by the Ministry of Magic, the current situation of the Order of the Phoenix, and finally the reason why Aaron helped them with treatment.

"That's the situation." Augusta spread his hands helplessly, "The situation is serious, but most people have not given up hope.

Lily and James' child, as long as Harry is alive, we have hope of defeating the mysterious man."

Frank and Alice looked at each other and simultaneously focused their eyes on Aaron.

"Although it's a bit abrupt, you must know something." Alice said.

"I do know a lot." Aaron smiled, "Dumbledore's plan, Harry Potter's actions, and the way to defeat Voldemort. I know all of this, but if you want to know, you must join my plan.

Of course, you don't have to join. Sign a contract, stay in the bed and wait for the dust to settle. I'll pretend I haven't been here today."

"What's your plan?" Frank asked.

"Kill the Dark Lord." Aaron said lightly, "I signed a contract with him. We will not interfere with each other before Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter die.

But once these two people die, I will have to give him the secret of immortality, but my blood is very coveted by him, and he will definitely not let me go when the time comes.

I am not someone who will sit and wait for death, so it is necessary to prepare in advance."

"Let's join." Frank and Alice said in unison.

Instead of continuing to act crazy here, they might as well go out and fight.

If they win, they can contribute their own strength, and if they lose, it is better than living a muddle-headed life.

"A wise decision." Aaron said contentedly, "You two can rest assured that my plan does not conflict with Dumbledore's plan. We just need to make some repairs in the final part."

"Are we the only ones who have joined?" Alice asked carefully, "Are there others?"

"In addition to you, Sirius Black, Alastor Moody, and Aberforth Dumbledore have officially joined.

As for those who have joined informally, there are also some, but it is not convenient to tell you."

"Then can you tell us about Dumbledore's plan?"

"Yes, but..." Aaron waved his wand and made a contract in the air.

The Longbottoms looked at each other and decisively wrote down their names.

"That's great. Sirius and the others had a lot of questions before signing, fearing that I would set a trap for them."

"You saved our lives, and we have the same goal, which is to defeat the Dark Lord." Frank said, "In that case, why should we hesitate?"

"And you are Neville's friend." Alice added, "You are definitely not a bad person, so we naturally believe you."

Aaron nodded with satisfaction, feeling touched.

Compared with Sirius and Moody, these two are not ordinary reasonable people.
