Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Arriving at the principal's office, Dumbledore sat down behind his desk. He took off his glasses and rubbed his temples with his hands. Perhaps it was because he was so powerful that people easily forgot about him. Due to the fact that he was old, Nydia suddenly felt that Dumbledore at this moment just looked like a tired old man.

"I'm sorry to have to call you back from the dormitory." Dumbledore put on his half-moon-shaped glasses again, "But our time is limited. Voldemort must have begun to take action, and we have also We must come up with a response strategy as soon as possible and gather all the power we can get. But before that, I must understand the specific situation of the Sacrifice Protection Spell from you. I want to know whether he can force you to cast this spell on him. "

Nidia shook her head, and then smiled mockingly, "If this is a spell that can force others to cast it for themselves, why would he bother to try so hard to deceive my mother, and how could I appear! "

Dumbledore nodded, looking like he was relieved, "The more powerful the spell, the more restrictions it will have on its use, so that a balance can be achieved."

"Actually, you don't need to worry about the Sacrifice Guardian Spell at all... He will not get the protection of the Sacrifice Guardian Spell from me..." Nidia said.

"I know, I have seen your performance in the past four years. You helped protect the Philosopher's Stone, risked your life to save Miss Weasley, and helped Sirius escape from trouble. I also know that you have been helping Lu "Send Poison Wolf Potion. I have no reason to doubt you anymore, I just want to make sure you are not under duress," Dumbledore said.

Nydia wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, she still couldn't say what was in her heart. Although Dumbledore misunderstood what she meant, it would be fine as long as he would no longer worry about this spell. Nydia found that everyone seemed to have some misunderstandings about the Sacrifice Curse. Even Voldemort, who had been protected by this spell, did not seem to really understand the conditions for using this spell.

"Professor, is there anything you need to arrange for me to do?" Nydia asked. Dumbledore had already arranged tasks for Snape and Sirius, would he also arrange some tasks for himself? Woolen cloth?

"I remember I talked to you last time. I won't assign you any tasks now. You just need not to do anything to express your position when he comes to you." Dumbledore said, "Try to make it as clear as possible." Become an outsider yourself.”

"Outsider!" This identity shocked and disappointed Nidia. "But I don't want to be just a useless outsider. Professor, I am good at spells, potions, and Occlumency. I think I I can do something for you.”

"Calm down, Nydia." Dumbledore's voice became stern, "What I expect you to be able to do may be much more difficult than you think. It will be detrimental to you to express any position prematurely. , until that day comes, I ask you to be an outsider, no matter what side of the action, you are not allowed to participate."

Nidia was stunned, and then asked tentatively, "So what you mean is that I am just an outsider temporarily, right? You will still have tasks assigned to me, right?"

Dumbledore sighed and nodded feebly, "Perhaps by then you will be more willing to just be an outsider..."

"No, it won't!" Nidia shook her head resolutely, "I want to do something for the people around me, and I don't like the feeling of being powerless."

Dumbledore stared deeply at Nydia for a while. He didn't know if the child in front of him would hate him in the end.

"Go back! Go back and have a good rest." Dumbledore said softly.

Nydia nodded, walked to the door of the office, and then turned to look at Dumbledore, "Professor... if the Sacrifice Curse can be forced to be used, what are you going to do?"

Dumbledore took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Then I can only try my best to ensure that Voldemort cannot find you."

"I see……"

Nydia came out of the principal's office and walked towards the Gryffindor lounge alone. After knowing that Dumbledore would have arrangements for her, Nydia finally felt at ease. Voldemort would come to find her. This thing doesn't seem so scary anymore.

Not far from the portrait of the Fat Lady, Nidia was about to walk up the steps, but someone suddenly walked out from the side and stretched out his hand to pull Nidia to a corner.

"Why are you still here? I thought you had left!" Nydia looked at Sirius in surprise, "Didn't Dumbledore arrange a task for you?"

"I'll be leaving soon, but I think it's necessary to say goodbye to you before I leave." Sirius looked around, although there was basically no one in the castle at this time. "I'm sorry for not believing your suspicions about Fake Moody. I shouldn't have let you go with him at the time."

"If I hadn't followed him at that time, I wouldn't have been able to confirm his identity, and given the vague reasons for suspicion I had at the time, it's normal for you not to believe it." Nidia hesitated and said. "Besides... I'm sorry that you still haven't been able to clear yourself of your status as a fugitive."

"Voldemort has returned, there is no need to care about these identities now!" Sirius said eagerly. "Listen, I don't have much time. I have to hurry up and do what Dumbledore asked me to do, but there are some things I need to let you know. I already know your life experience from Harry. He didn't mean to ignore it. To keep your secret, he just let it slip for a moment. He experienced too much in one night, so don’t blame him..."

Nydia shook her head, "It doesn't matter, I won't blame Harry. I had already planned to tell you when I was in Hagrid's room, but I was interrupted by Barty Crouch Jr. ”

"Yeah!" Sirius smiled in surprise, "...What am I going to say...Oh! By the way! I want to tell you that neither I nor Harry, we don't care about you. identity, I believe the same is true for Lupine.”

Nidia felt her nose feel a little sore, "So you came back just to tell me this?"

"I think it's necessary to let you know everyone's opinions!" Sirius said seriously.

"Thank you..." Nydia walked forward and gave Sirius a brief hug, "I hope you have found yourself some decent clothes when we meet next time."

Sirius nodded in embarrassment, "I will go find Lupin, so I will have a fixed place to stay, and I won't have to run around in the next few days. I think it's time to take care of myself." ”

"Okay, let's go! You're not in a hurry to do what Dumbledore told you, but I'm still in a hurry to go back and rest!" Nydia turned her head to the side, not wanting Sirius to see her red eyes. .

"Take good care of yourself, girl! If you need help with anything, ask your owl to send me a message." Sirius rubbed Nydia's hair, turned around and ran away like Padfoot.

Nidia waited until Sirius's figure disappeared completely before continuing to walk towards the common room. The fat lady who was woken up muttered something to her unhappily, but Nidia didn't care. She looked through the public room. From the window of the lounge, she could see that the sky outside was starting to turn a little white. She felt sleepy for the first time all night. When she passed by the sofa in the lounge, she resisted and fell asleep directly on the sofa. Impulsively, he dragged his heavy steps towards the bedroom.
