Hogwarts Homecoming

"People always thought I was always right and omnipotent, Amosta"

In the distant sky, in the center of endless darkness, a very faint halo has already appeared near the horizon. At this moment, at the bleakest moment before dawn, Dumbledore took off his glasses and rubbed the center of his brows wearily.

"But I've always thought that my mistakes were more serious than my small contributions."

Dumbledore stared at the young and outstanding wizard beside him with sadness in his eyes.

Amosta didn't speak, he was waiting for Dumbledore to give him a reasonable explanation, if Dumbledore couldn't justify his actions, then I'm afraid this matter would create an irreparable gap between the two of them, Even, one day in the future, the two will become enemies.

"- Few people know that Tom was recruited into Hogwarts by myself,"

Dumbledore obviously also knew that he had to give Amosta an explanation as soon as possible. He explained directly without too much foreshadowing.

"When I first met him in the orphanage, I was disturbed by the inherent domineering and cruel nature of his character, as well as his excellent magical talent, but I assure you, Amosta, At that time, I never imagined that the little boy with a tragic life experience would commit such an unforgivable crime in the future."

Voldemort also grew up in an orphanage?

Amosta's eyelids moved slightly, probably understanding what Dumbledore wanted to express.

"——In the eyes of all the professors, he is a polite, quiet, knowledge-hungry little wizard, handsome, talented, and well-mannered. Many faculty members, including Armando Dippet, who was the principal at the time, believed that his future achievements were limitless.”

Tragic background, outstanding magic talent, good at self-hiding.

Amostar let out a sneer of unknown meaning. In this way, there are indeed many similarities between him and Voldemort. With the lessons learned from the past, it is no wonder that Dumbledore has been paying close attention to himself since the Christmas night in the fifth grade.

"I think you've figured it out, Amostar—"

Dumbledore's tone was sad,

"I've always been worried about history repeating itself, but I also know that I can't judge your future arbitrarily. Since you left school, I have been caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, I hope you can live in my sight, At the same time, I know that you are a young wizard with your own mind. If I interfere too much with your choice through Severus, then, in a few years, Voldemort's past may be your future.

To be honest, I have not hesitated for many years, Amosta, I have been trying to convince myself that through these years of observation, I think you and Tom are fundamentally different, you have love in your heart, and you are not greedy for power , don't aspire to be famous, and don't want to make yourself intimidating.

However, I have never been able to completely rest assured that the painful history of the past shows that I will always make serious mistakes on key issues. Considering my age, I think that I will no longer have to correct it. Own wrong chance"

To be honest, Amosta has always respected Dumbledore deep in his heart.

This old man, who can be called the living history of the modern magic world, has clearly stood at the pinnacle of wizards, but for so many years, he probably hasn't had a few days of comfort, and has been working hard to use his wisdom to contribute to the peace and stability of the magic world. Planning, Amosta thinks that he does not have such a great mind.

"--I don't want to deceive you, Amosta, but Remus's letter about your conflict with Greyback's werewolves and asking about your origins has added to my concerns. The worst possibility that happened to me that I don't want to see."

"I have my principles, Dumbledore."

Amosta understood Dumbledore's concerns, but when he was the one to be guarded against, Amosta really felt very helpless.

"Don't accept any commissions for wizards or Muggles, right?"

Dumbledore shook his beard, looked at Amosta who suddenly gathered his eyebrows, and sighed,

"Don't blame Kacus Foley, Amosta, I first approached him to help keep an eye on your activities in the underground world. Indeed, this rule of yours made me understand that you try your best not to Innocent lives are hurt, and it is the existence of this rule that makes me more patient, I mean, respect your choice"

"Since that's the case, Dumbledore, why are you trying to get me back to Hogwarts now?"

There was a touch of warmth in the desolate night wind, but Amosta's mood gradually became complicated.

In order to worry that he was sinking into the darkness and couldn't extricate himself, so he made such a ridiculous farce to make himself return to Hogwarts?

Amosta didn't know whether he should hate Dumbledore's behavior or be grateful.

"Perhaps you thought you'd always held your ground, Amostar,"

At this time, Dumbledore's eyes regained wisdom, and the wisdom of life of more than a hundred years shone in those blue eyes.

"But I think if it keeps going like this, there is no doubt that the darkness will eat you sooner or later. How long has it been since you stood in the bright world and basked in the sun with everyone?"

In the sky, a ray of fine powder and golden light tore through the night, and reflected in Amosta's slightly confused purple eyes. Amidst the undulating sound of the forest, Dumbledore sincerely asked Amosta to stay in Huo Gewartz continues to coach. Even if he doesn't want to, I hope he can change his way of life and stop swinging back and forth between light and darkness, because if he continues like that, he will slide into darkness sooner or later.

This long night will eventually pass, but it has left an indelible image in the hearts of many people. There has been a commotion in the castle, Ginny was rescued, and the news of the end of the secret room is centered on the school hospital, with amazing The speed spreads outward rapidly.

"Take Lockhart off the drug, Dumbledore."

Amosta threw the glass bottle that sealed the basilisk to Dumbledore, ignored the bitterness on the old face, turned and walked towards the castle.

"Wait, Amostar—"

Dumbledore is not an omniscient saint. He doesn't know what kind of person Amosta's choices will make him in the future, but he knows that if he interferes now, it will only Push this young man with great potential into the abyss

"You deserve it, Amosta"

Dumbledore handed over the money bag again, he suppressed all the uneasiness and worries in his heart, smiled gently,

"To be honest, Amosta, although the salary that the school board will offer me is not low, but for a wizard like me, the expenses are equally astonishing, so I can't spend more Galleons to show My thanks!"

"What do you think I am, Dumbledore, with money in mind?"

Amosta glanced at the money bag, but didn't reach out, "You're not too young, so save this money for your retirement."

"As it is"

Dumbledore still insisted, "For the children in the orphanage."

Amosta's breathing became short of breath, and a few black lines appeared on his forehead. This old guy seemed to have made his own investigation very clear. If he stayed at Hogwarts, Amosta doubted that Dumbledore had One day, the color of his underwear will be clear!

"You and I are even, Headmaster Dumbledore."

Amostar took the purse, he reached into his arms again, took out something and threw it to Dumbledore, then turned and strode away.

Staring at the cracked place in his palm, the scorched crown, and the lakeside, Dumbledore, who was standing against the wind, opened his mouth silently in shock.

ps: I wish everyone a happy Year of the Rabbit and a smooth life, work and study in the new year!
