Chapter 303 Wise Choice

He wasn't afraid of the giant eight-eyed spider, but rather the weird unknown existence hidden in the depths of the cave.

"Let's go back!" Ivan whispered to Goyle and Crabbe.

He tried not to think about what happened to Malfoy, because it made him feel bad. Ask yourself, if Harry or Hermione were dragged down by the acromantula, he might not have any hesitation, just go after them, and save them even if they die.

Because they are my friends, they are the most important existence in my life.

But the other party was Malfoy, but Ivan hesitated!

He's not a god, not as powerful as Dumbledore, and not as fearless as Harry in the final battle.

Whether he admits it or not, he is just an ordinary person.

That's right, he's just an ordinary guy with a little luck.

He knows the future of the world and all characters, so he can fight bravely, fight against the established future, and even have the courage to resist Voldemort.

Because he knew it, he worked hard to change and prevent the tragedy from happening.

But when the future was really changed by him, Aiwen began to be afraid again.

The moment Pettigrew Peter was caught by himself, he knew that such a day would come. In the past six months, he has devoted himself to researching magic and improving his own strength. He originally thought that only in this way can he fight against the changed future.

But Ivan found that he was wrong, just like Dumbledore had been trying to tell him, whether a person is strong does not lie in how much magic power he possesses, but in his heart.

Voldemort possesses unimaginable power, but his heart is extremely fragile. Although he is evil and cruel, he is afraid of death, and he tries every means to escape.

This is his ignorance, so no matter how much magic he has, how much magic he masters, Dumbledore will never be afraid of him.

As for myself...

Ai Wen took a deep breath and tried not to think about these things.

He told himself repeatedly that it was the wisest choice to give up Malfoy and stay away from this eerie cave.

Yes, even so.

He turned and came to Buckbeak, ready to go back and inform the others as soon as possible.

Although many people think that he is a genius, even admire and envy him, thinking that he is different.

But Aiwen himself knew that he was no different from other ordinary little wizards.

"Please, save him!" Seeing Ivan's actions, Goyle cried and said, "Only you can save him, otherwise Draco will be killed by those spiders..."

"We should go back as soon as possible, only the professors can save Draco." Crabbe retorted, "Stop wasting time here, let's go."

"Those monsters can eat Draco in just a few minutes." Goyle said unwillingly, "We can't go, otherwise..."

"What else?!" Crabbe turned to Goyle with undisguised ferocity. "I just want to get out of here now. You're wasting your time."

"But Draco..."

"As I said, we're going back to the castle to tell the others to come and save him," said Crabbe. "We're not doing him any favors by staying here. We're just making trouble."

Hearing Crabbe's words, Goyle was silent.

His silly eyes looked at his companion uncertainly, and then turned his head to look at Aiwen expectantly, but he didn't get any response from Aiwen.

As stupid as he is, he knows what it means.

After a long time, he said hesitantly, "If Draco dies, his father and the Malfoy family won't just let it go."

Even Crabbe was silent when it came to Lucius Malfoy.

"I believe he will understand us!" He muttered in a low voice, raising his volume, "Besides, what can the two of us do?!"

Ai Wen understood what the two of them meant, and deliberately talked about the Malfoy family to himself.

This is both a threat and a reminder.

Once Malfoy died here like this, the three of them had to be ready to face Lucius Malfoy's wrath.

They are Malfoy's followers and their own people, so Lucius may not do anything to them, but it's hard to say for Ivan, Lucius is likely to blame him.

It seemed that Malfoy's two henchmen, especially Crabbe, were not as stupid as they appeared.

Ivan is naturally not afraid of Lucius, nor is he worried about the revenge of the Malfoy family. This is Hogwarts, and with Dumbledore around, he can't do anything.

Today's incident itself is Malfoy's own fault, and has nothing to do with Ivan. However, the conversation between Goyle and Crabbe made Ivan hesitate again. He finally found out that something was wrong. He kept telling himself repeatedly in his heart that it was the wisest choice to give up Malfoy and leave here as soon as possible.

Apparently, Crabbe thought so too.

It's exactly the same as a Slytherin who doesn't even have the loyalty of the most basic friends and only cares about his own safety. Is this really a wise choice? !

Yeah, it's different, the other party is the hateful Malfoy.

A strange voice whispered in Ai Wen's heart: He is not even a friend to you, so there is no need for you to risk your life to save him.

But when Aiwen thought this way, he always felt that something was wrong, and the sense of disobedience became stronger and stronger. Didn't he also risk his life to save Pettigrew Peter?

The voice sounded again: It was only because of need, you needed him to prove Sirius' innocence, you didn't really want to save him.

Peter Pettigrew is useful, but Malfoy is not. On the contrary, he is still a trouble, and many things in the future will be worse because of his existence.

It's probably for the best that he dies here...

"No, that's not the case!" Ivan shouted suddenly.

Goyle and Crabbe looked at him in panic, not knowing what was going on.

At this moment, Aiwen was struggling with the strange voice in his heart. He finally figured it out. The suggestions given by this voice seemed to be correct, but they ignored the most important point, ignored human nature, and only looked at the problem from the perspective of gain and loss.

If he did what the other party said, what would be the difference from those dark wizards? !

Immersed in cold-blooded interests and powerful magical powers, deal with anything, just make wise choices that are best for you.

Aiwen can abandon Malfoy and die, because it is not only dangerous, but also does him no good. If he wants something, he can do everything possible to get it, because he has his own reasons. If you are afraid of death, you can deprive other people of their humble lives to make Horcruxes. Only in this way can you live forever.

These choices seem wise, but they are not what Ivan needs. He must resist and correct these wrong ideas.

Just as Ivan had this thought, the Slytherin locket that had been hanging on his chest suddenly flashed a dark golden light.

The curved and weird text-like lines lit up at the same time, and it returned to its previous appearance in an instant, as if nothing had happened.

But Aiwen's originally chaotic will became firm again, and a strange magic power injected into his body from the inside out.

In the depths of his heart, suddenly there was a crisp sound, like the sound of glass shattering, and the echoing whispers disappeared.

Ivan supported Buckbeak with both hands, panting violently.

Everything in front of him became clear again, and he felt his back was drenched with sweat.

He just realized that the strange voice that appeared deep in his heart just now was the existence that had been whispering to him in the beginning.

It affects itself invisibly, hoping that Aiwen will fall.

Only in this way can it devour his soul. (To be continued.)
