Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

"Things that could endanger Dumbledore's life..."

Avada quickly recalled the information in her mind, trying to analyze what the pure-blood family was doing: "The curse on the Resurrection Stone could kill Dumbledore, but that curse was placed by Voldemort himself, and it was also caused by the resurrection." It was Stone's fatal attraction to Dumbledore that made him take the bait, and there was almost no possibility of it being copied... What else could it be? ’

‘Try to throw a killing curse? Not to mention that almost no one except Voldemort can release the Killing Curse silently. Even if someone succeeds in a sneak attack, Fox will block the knife...'

'Or maybe they secretly cultivated another wizard who is as powerful as Voldemort? But even if Voldemort himself comes to fight alone, he can't defeat him? The phoenix, the Elder Wand, the unique magic developed over many years, and the combat experience gained from participating in two large-scale wars...these are the things that separated Dumbledore from wizards of the same level. If you want to guarantee his life, you need to dispatch two or three Voldemorts at the same time... Is it possible for a pure-blood family to do this? ’

‘What else can be done? ’

"Uh...Professor, you said,"

After being face-to-face with Dumbledore in silence for a while, Avada hesitated to say, except for the speculation in her heart: "Could this order be the same as the previous one of 'taking a person away from Hogwarts', with concealment or misinformation?" Where are the ingredients?”

"oh?"

Dumbledore's eyes flickered: "Why do you think so?"

"I don't think the pureblood family currently has enough power to pose a mortal threat to you while remaining secretive."

Avada said bluntly: "You have always been a thorn in their side, and the confrontation with them has been going on for quite some time - I think what you have done in the past few years is not the most excessive to them. Right? In terms of damage, your blow to them during the Wizarding War was not much stronger than it is now?"

"And since they couldn't kill you even at that time, it will be even more impossible after Voldemort fell and the pure-blood family was further weakened..."

"A very good inference."

Dumbledore nodded, but his expression did not relax at all: "But unfortunately, I seem to have betrayed your trust... I am not that powerful, so invincible, Ken. Just the things I can think of can There are several ways to kill myself silently - we can't take chances and speculate on the enemy's intentions."

"There are too many unknowns in the magical world, and the heritage of pure-blood families cannot be underestimated. It is normal for them to come up with something we don't know about now."

"And, back to the point,"

He seemed not to spend too much time speculating on the methods of the pure-blood family: "Since this competition is completely a whirlpool of conspiracy, and there is even a crisis that can kill me... Then you should continue It is clear how much danger the students involved in this game will face."

"So, I'm asking you - it's a request. You have every right to refuse. Ken, I need your help."

Dumbledore's voice was very soft, he put his hands on the table to support his body that was almost standing up, and stared at Avada: "If there is really someone who can save everything in a crisis, For the safety of students, then this person must be you, Ken, you have done this more than once - this is the fundamental reason why I hope you can participate in the Triwizard Tournament."

"Perhaps I can make many arrangements in secret, but on the surface I can only lead the students to Durmstrang. Then I will inevitably have no time to spare... I need to find someone I can trust to lead the students to Durmstrang. Entrust our safety to him, and then we can explore the conspiracy that can kill even me without any worries..."

"I certainly don't mind protecting others, Professor."

Avada frowned: "But am I inconspicuous in the eyes of the pure-blood family? I have done it twice just against Voldemort - I doubt if they can really kill you. , and probably don’t mind taking my life at all. In this case, will my appearance be a disservice? "

"Even...this time the Triwizard Tournament has uncharacteristically canceled the age limit. Is it possible that this is just to lure people like me, Balon, and Harry into taking the bait?"

Avada felt quite thoughtful and terrified.

"Haha... That won't be the case."

Dumbledore finally showed a smile: "You may not know that the person who proposed to lift the age limit this time was not a member of the pure-blood family, but a prestigious official in the Ministry of Magic - his name is Ludo... Bagman is also the commentator for the Quidditch World Cup this summer."

"I've checked on this man. He has no interest in anything with Death Eaters or pure-blood families. The only time he was tried was found not guilty. Moreover, no one in the discussion at that time was controlled by the Imperius Curse. , or disguised with Polyjuice Potion - such international level important occasions will have anti-thief waterfalls. Even during the voting, those who are related to the pureblood family - including Durmstrang The principals, including the president, expressed their opposition, but in the end it was defeated by a majority vote."

"Besides, you may not know your status in the eyes of a pureblood family."

He stood and blinked: "I dare say that if they really plan to kill me, then you must be the last person I want to be seen next to me - you are a prophet, remember?"

"But not anymore."

Avada was a little frightened when she said this - in theory, as long as he carries a Trelawney or Grindelwald with him, he will be the strongest prophet.

"But they don't know, and even if they knew they wouldn't believe it."

Dumbledore said with some humor: "As far as I know, many of them still think that you are Gellert... a descendant of Grindelwald, and they have even made many plans to win you over... …Prophecy has always been the most mysterious and unreasonable thing.”

"..."

Avada pondered for a moment.

"So, Professor, do I need to run for the Warriors?"

After a while, he asked the last question: "If I become a warrior, I will have to spend a lot of energy facing those competitions. In that case, I am afraid it will be difficult to go all out to protect other students..."

"You will be more suspicious if you don't become a warrior."

Dumbledore finally showed a relaxed smile, and at the same time there was a kind of heartfelt gratitude in his tone: "And there is no need to worry about the competition taking up too much energy - in a full year, there is probably less than It’s a week of competition.”

"That's fine with me, Professor."

Avada nodded heavily and stood up.

"Oh, right,"

Before he left, Dumbledore added: "This exam does not have a backdoor that was not opened for you like last time. You have to take it seriously - it is not difficult for you anyway."
