The first White Lord of Hogwarts - Chapter 67
“what do you mean…”
“I see the shadow of Grindelwald in you, and I also see my own.”
Dumbledore’s eyes flashed with nostalgia. He remembered that year and that month when two talented young people made a covenant with their own blood and sweat, vowing never to hurt each other.
“Uh…”
Ivan scratched his head and said,”The greatest black wizard and white wizard of this century, should I say, it is my honor?”
“The greatest, dark wizard?”
Dumbledore did not refute that he was the greatest white wizard of this century.
Anyway, the whole world said so. Even if Dumbledore wanted to refuse, it had no choice but to accept it.
In contrast, Ivan’s statement that Grindelwald was the greatest dark wizard made Dumbledore a little… a little happy?
Well, Dumbledore was indeed very happy, which was more pleasing than being praised himself.
“Yes, the greatest.”
Ivan said:”Especially what Grindelwald said, I think it makes a lot of sense.”
“For the greater good!”
When Ivan said this, Dumbledore’s heart obviously slowed down.
“Compared to Voldemort, I think Grindelwald is the dark wizard who deserves to be remembered.”
Grindelwald was not given the title of Dark Lord. He was a reformer who wanted to overthrow the Statute of Secrecy, not an outright murderer like Voldemort.
“I know Grindelwald killed many people.
Ivan: He started a war and took countless lives.”
“This is not right, and it is even worse.”
Ivan said this not to please Dumbledore, but because he really thought so.
In Ivan’s view, the population of the wizarding world is limited, and every wizard is a valuable resource.
Killing is refreshing, but the cost is too high.
Moreover, compared to the supremacy of pure blood, Ivan wants to unify wizards all over the world and gather the power of everyone.
“.…..”
Looking at the 11-year-old wizard in front of him, who was giving instructions and talking freely,
Dumbledore had an illusion that the person sitting there was not someone else, but Grindelwald.
The old man wanted to tell Ivan that the phrase”for the greater good” was not originally uttered by Grindelwald.
He was the first person to say this.
“So 637, what about you?”
Gradually, Dumbledore regarded Ivan as another self, a younger and better self than him.
He wanted to know Ivan’s thoughts and what kind of goals the little wizard in front of him had.
The mysterious side seems to be just a small study group.
But at the beginning, there were only one or two Death Eaters of Voldemort and Saints of Grindelwald.
As the saying goes, a little sand makes a tower, and a spark can start a prairie fire.
When Ivan’s influence on Hermione and others became deeper and deeper, it would be difficult to turn back.
The most important point.
How to protect happiness?
What is happiness?
When they move forward with this goal, sooner or later they will encounter obstacles.
At that time, what will Ivan and the others do?
The simpler the concept, the more complex it is, and the more difficult it is to achieve. Obviously, those children have not realized this yet.
“Granger, Longbottom, Patil, and Potter…”
Dumbledore:”They are taking an unknown path under your influence.”
“Do you want me to stop?”
“No.”
Dumbledore shook his head and said,”I just hope you can be more cautious.”
“You are a kind child. I have always seen the help you give them.”
Dumbledore asked McGonagall what kind of person Ivan was in the orphanage.
Professor McGonagall told him that Ivan was loved by everyone in the orphanage, especially when they knew that Ivan used magical power, but he still gave back to the orphanage.
This kind of gratitude is something Tom Riddle will never have.
“But I think you need to understand.”
Dumbledore:”Whenever you choose a person, you have to take on something.”
“Protect our world and pass on the most sincere happiness”
“That’s great…”
What reason did Dumbledore have to stop Ivan and stop the dreams of the young wizards?
More than a hundred years ago, in that valley, didn’t he and Grindelwald have the same dream?
“So…”
Ivan looked into Dumbledore’s deep sapphire eyes:”The owner of the other shadow is you?”
“Ah.”
Dumbledore said with emotion:”It’s really incredible, little Ivan”
“You have his foresight and charm, and a precious heart that I could not see at that time.”
If it was not clear that two men could not have children, Dumbledore would have doubted whether Ivan was a hybrid of the Grindelwald family and the Dumbledore family.
There was no way, they were too similar.
Ivan’s prophetic and transfiguration talents, as well as his resonance with the Phoenix Spirit in the Sycamore Wand.
The former is like the return of the Grindelwald family’s bloodline, and the latter is the return of the Dumbledore family’s bloodline.
Ivan has better talents and higher personal charm than Dumbledore and Grindelwald.
“”Uh…”
Ivan scratched his head awkwardly.
Well, he himself had some doubts.
The system extracted the best wizard bloodline in the Harry Potter world.
In the original book, the best wizard was not Voldemort.
Because Voldemort had undergone many magical transformations, his power came from acquired, not innate.
The truly amazing ones should be Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald.
The two undoubtedly represent the two peaks of powerful bloodlines in the wizarding world.
No way, it can’t be true, right?
Ivan naturally couldn’t be the child of Dumbledore and GG, but his bloodline could really be the product of their two families returning to their ancestors and then re-integrating.
“Professor, I haven’t thought about it that much.”
Ivan said frankly:”But no matter what the future holds, one thing is certain.”
“What?”
“Strong!”
Ivan said:”Only by being strong can we face the problems that may arise.”
This is why he taught Hermione and others magical knowledge and established the secret base of the mysterious side.
“Yes, you are right.
Dumbledore nodded, he agreed with Ivan’s opinion.
“I will try my best to improve their magic skills.”
“As for the future, we will have to wait and see.”Ivan:”Let us worry about the future.”
His words were recognized by Dumbledore, and the old man chose to end the topic.
He already knew Ivan’s attitude.
As for the rest, it was not for him, an old man over a hundred years old, to take care of it.
It’s right to give some advice and experience to the old people occasionally.
But Dumbledore didn’t think he could make decisions.
Times have changed, and he is old.
The remnants of the old era only need to be given shelter before the new seeds grow into towering trees.
“Ah, yes.”
Dumbledore suddenly said:”I may have something to do recently and need to leave Hogwarts.”
“So, can we stop going to the evening?”
“No.”
Dumbledore:”The class must continue.” (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
“Then…”
Ivan was confused, what do you mean by this sentence?
“I mean, when I leave Hogwarts, Ivan, can you protect the children here?”
“???”
Ivan’s eyes widened with an expression of disbelief:”Are you serious?”
“I?”
“Protect Hogwarts?”
Ivan felt that he had heard wrongly.
Shouldn’t you tell Snape and Professor Cat about this?
You’re entrusting a little wizard who has just been enrolled for less than two months. What the hell?…
“Ivan, who do you think is the most powerful in Hogwarts?”
“Of course it’s you!”
“What about me?”
“”Well…”
Well, besides Dumbledore, it seems that the best fighter is Ivan Ambrosius.
As mentioned before, Ivan can remain invincible under the siege of three top professors, McGonagall, Flitwick, and Snape.
And if it is a one-on-one fight, no dean is Ivan’s opponent.
Inexplicably, I have become the second best in Hogwarts?
Ivan did not think in this direction. After all, Hogwarts still has Dumbledore, the world’s number one white wizard, in front, and he is still a long way from the peak.
However, the fact is that the only ones Ivan cannot beat are those great wizards who have surpassed the limits of human beings.[]
But facing top human wizards like McGonagall and Snape, there is already a clear gap between the two sides.
“Where are you going?”
“Go and visit an old friend.”
Dumbledore:”Do you know the Philosopher’s Stone?”
“Of course.”
Ivan did not expect Dumbledore to be so straightforward. He even told Ivan clearly that Voldemort was going to steal the Philosopher’s Stone and Nicolas Flamel had entrusted the Philosopher’s Stone to him.
��With all due respect, the levels set up by the professors on the fourth floor cannot stop adult wizards at all.”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Dumbledore never placed his hopes on these fairy-tale-like levels. He said,”The real magic used to protect the Philosopher’s Stone is the magic I set up myself.”
Dumbledore’s strength is unquestionable.
Even if Voldemort at his peak came, he probably wouldn’t be able to break the protective magic he set up.
Therefore, whether the previous levels are easy or difficult is naturally irrelevant.
“Magic stone…”
“Here it is.”
Dumbledore took out a red irregular gem from his pocket and placed it in front of Ivan in front of him.
“Ah this…”
Ivan didn’t understand what Lao Deng meant.
“Don’t you want to take a look?”
“”Is it OK?”
Ivan said, but his hand did not stop at all, and he took the magic stone in his hand.
For a moment, Ivan’s sharp magic perception clearly perceived the powerful magic power emitted by this small crystal.
Different, completely different!
Ivan had never seen an alchemical item with such powerful magic.
This thing is like a miracle!
Turning on the magic eye and the spiritual vision, Ivan carefully observed and analyzed it inside and out, trying to see through the essence of the magic stone and find a way to refine it.
Ivan did not forget that the first link of the main task required him to refine a magic stone independently.
Now, the finished product is in front of him, and Ivan can’t help but be excited.
“Professor, how did you know I wanted the Philosopher’s Stone?”
Ivan saw Dumbledore’s intention, and the latter smiled and said,”You applied to me to go to the restricted area last time, and I noticed it at that time.”
Although he got the borrowing slip for the restricted area, Ivan did not choose those powerful black magic, but chose some advanced alchemy that almost no one would read.
Considering Ivan’s cleverness, Dumbledore quickly guessed his purpose.
Of course, the paintings definitely played a big role in this.
Ivan really wanted to complain: How many spies did you plant in the school, old man?!
“Did you already know that what Harry and Hagrid brought back from Gringotts was the Philosopher’s Stone?”
“Yes.”
Ivan did not hide it:”And my eyes, you know, I can see the future.”
“Is that so…”
Dumbledore was silent for a while, then said:”Well, then happy Halloween, go and enjoy the dinner tonight.”
“”Huh?”
Ivan was stunned for a moment. He looked at the Philosopher’s Stone in his hand, then at Dumbledore.
Suddenly, Ivan realized something.
“You, don’t you want to take it back?”
“Just think of it as my homework for you.”
Dumbledore smiled and said,”I hope you can learn something from our next class.”
Yes, Dumbledore handed the Philosopher’s Stone to Ivan.
The Philosopher’s Stone is the stone that can make people immortal.
Although it has various drawbacks, the title of the fifth element and the philosopher’s stone cannot be false. It is the pinnacle of alchemy.
Voldemort���On the way back to the common room, Ivan touched the Philosopher ‘s
Stone in his pocket and still felt a little dreamy: Dumbledore gave it to me directly.
No matter what Dumbledore’s purpose was, Ivan was really touched by this trust.
“I can feel that Old Dumbledore is not testing me.”
Ivan:”He simply saw that I was interested in alchemy, so he gave me the Philosopher’s Stone to study.”
Ivan had never told anyone about the main quest.
But considering Dumbledore’s erudition, he could see that Ivan was interested in the Philosopher’s Stone, which was normal.
Professor, when should I return it?
Before leaving, Ivan asked the last question.
When I ask you for it.
Dumbledore told Ivan directly that he suspected that Voldemort was not dead, so he wanted to use the Philosopher’s Stone as bait to lure him out.
Ivan told Dumbledore that there was something wrong with Quirrell.
Dumbledore had discovered it a long time ago.
He had been waiting for Quirrell to come and ask him for help.
Through communication with Dumbledore, Ivan found that Old Dumbledore did not know that Voldemort was attached to the back of Quirrell’s head, he just suspected that Voldemort was still alive.
As for those levels, they were originally prepared for Harry.
It happened that Ivan formed the Mysterious Side.
When the time comes, you can take them to try.
Dumbledore said: Just think of it as a small test I prepared for your small group.
