Chapter 1074 Voldemort's Secret

"I know, it should be a love potion!" Ivan said, knowing this for a long time. "They seem to be two unrelated people. Without the help of magic, they would not fall in love, let alone be together."

"This is also a very important part of history, it's a pity we can't get the memory of the person involved!" Dumbledore said, "But it is not difficult to speculate that, as you said, Merope borrowed the power of magic. She doesn't seem to be able to use her magical powers fully during the Reign of Terror. Once Marvolo and Morfin are locked in Azkaban, once she's alone for the first time and can do whatever she wants, I believe, she can Putting her talents to good use, plotting an escape from the miserable life she's led for eighteen years. Yes, she's not a Squib, but a wizard capable of spellcasting."

As Dumbledore said, he put the crystal bottle of memory aside and took out another one.

In a way, Merope is so similar to his sister.

But that's another sad story!

"Your reasoning just now is great, Ivan, and I personally tend to think that she used the love potion!" Dumbledore continued, "I believe she will find it more romantic that way, and it will not be too difficult to operate. A certain hot One day, Riddle rode over alone, and Merope persuaded him to drink a glass of water. Anyway, a few months after the scene we just witnessed, a shocking scandal broke out in the village of Little Hangleton. As you can imagine, What a chatter there will be when people hear that the squire's son has eloped with the vagabond's daughter, Merope."

"But believe me, the shock of the villagers is nothing compared to the shock of Marvolo. When Marvolo returned from Azkaban six months later, he expected to see his daughter waiting obediently. Looking at him, there was steaming hot food on the table. He didn't expect that the dust in the room was more than an inch thick, and the daughter left a farewell note, which wrote what she had done."

"From what I can find, he has never mentioned his daughter's name or existence since then. The shock of his daughter's abandonment of the family is probably due to his premature death. Another cause of death. Or, he probably never learned how to feed himself. Anyway, he didn't live to see Morfin return to the cabin."

Dumbledore told what happened later in one breath. These things had nothing to do with Slytherin's ring, but they were also very crucial, very important things, things that Voldemort didn't want others to know.

It seems that what Ivan said last night to persuade Dumbledore to destroy Voldemort worked.

He had already started to deal with these matters, and began to sort out the memories related to Voldemort's past.

It's really scary, Voldemort himself probably thought these things were history!

But Dumbledore dug him out. He knew everything about Voldemort, even better than Voldemort himself.

He'd been gathering this intel since he thought Voldemort was a threat.

This is Dumbledore, he will never be as simple as the headmaster of Hogwarts on the podium.

Anyone who thinks Dumbledore can be easily defeated, like Fudge, is just as stupid as he is.

Having said that, except for some experiences written on paper and increasingly vague memories, Ivan knows nothing about Dumbledore's past, such as how did he obtain such powerful power? How to get Phoenix Fox?

Also, what happened between him and Grindelwald?

Dumbledore once told Ivan that they had traveled all over the world in order to gain power.

What is certain is that they have been to the Maelstrom of Charybdis, the place where the time titans fell, Ravenclaw and Gryffindor have also been there, and Dumbledore and Grindelwald are definitely not there for sightseeing Yes, what did they find?

Besides, where else have they been?

It is said that only the mysterious east can find the phoenix, where fire and water blend together and life reincarnates...

"You have to know that a few months after Voldemort's parents eloped and got married, old Tom Riddle returned to the mansion in Little Hangleton, but he didn't bring his wife with him." Ivan didn't seem to notice Dumbledore continued, "There are rumors among the neighbors that he insisted that he was deceived and blinded. I think he must mean that he has been enchanted, and now the magic has been lifted, but I'm sure he wouldn't dare to use such a word, lest people think he is crazy. However, the villagers heard him and guessed that Merope had lied to Tom Riddle and pretended that she was going to give birth to him. He has a child, forcing him to marry her."

"Well, but she really gave birth!" Ivan said subconsciously.

"Yes, but that was a year after they were married, and she was pregnant when Tom Riddle left her," said Dumbledore. "Merope loved her husband deeply, I think, and she Can't bear to continue to keep him under magical control. I think she has made a decision not to give him love potions. Maybe, because she loves so obsessively, she believes that her husband will love in return At the very least, she would stay for the sake of the child. Unfortunately, both of her plans fell through. Riddle left her and never saw her again, nor did he bother to find out how his son was doing. "

"It's ruthless!"

"Ruthless, maybe, but I'm more inclined to be human!" Dumbledore said, "Are you ready, Ivan? I hope to see another memory, the secret about Voldemort himself, before we leave."

"Yeah!" Evan nodded.

"I hope you can understand that I am very lucky to be able to collect this memory. He is the most precious of all my treasures." Dumbledore said, "It is also it that can help us find the coin that was destroyed by Voldemort. The ring that just got up."

"I understand!" Ivan said, your luck is Voldemort's.

As before, Voldemort probably didn't expect Dumbledore to learn so much about him.

"Very well, let's come." Dumbledore said softly, "Also, let's talk when we have something to say!"

Aiwen entered the Pensieve, and after the familiar feeling of falling in the void, he landed on a dirty stone floor.

It was almost pitch black around, and it took him a few seconds before he recognized this place, which was the old house of the Gaunt family.

Compared with the dilapidated houses I saw before, the Gaunt's house at this time was indescribably filthy, beyond imagination.

There are thick cobwebs on the ceiling, the ground is dark, and there are moldy food and a pile of rusty pots on the table.

The only light came from a crumbling candle at the feet of a man whose hair and beard had grown so long that they covered his eyes and mouth. For a moment, Ivan even wondered if he was dead, but suddenly there was a loud noise The knock on the door made the man startle, and he woke up, his wand raised in his right hand, and a short knife in his left.

This familiar action evokes Ivan's memory. He is Voldemort's uncle Morfin. Browse and read the address:
