Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse

"..."

This is very Grindelwald-esque.

Avada kept this sentence in her heart and did not say it out - it is best not to let Dumbledore know about his connection with Grindelwald now. This is not an easy thing to explain, unless he is willing to reveal that he is actually Nuo A professor at Bilic University...

"Of course, I didn't completely lose my vigilance because of this information."

Seeing that Avada did not respond, Dumbledore continued, his voice becoming a little deeper: "Of course I will not just trust an organization that has an affair with Grindelwald and gain support through grand and empty promises. This was one of his specialties, and I had already been fooled once in my early years, and paid the price for it - between my trip to Nurmengard at Christmas and my official start as Grindelwald, I also used It will take two full months to inspect Noblych University and judge whether they are really what Grindelwald boasted..."

"What's the result?"

Avada showed a slightly nervous look at the right time - he was now nominally a preparatory student at Nobic Ridge University, and had also signed the admission contract. Logically speaking, he should be worried about whether he would fall into Go to the den of thieves.

"Don't you already have your own judgment in your mind?"

Dumbledore smiled: "Being able to voluntarily sign a contract with the person who infiltrated Durmstrang without my knowledge at least shows that you already have some trust in Nobic Ridge University? And I guess , you should have been associated with this university earlier, right? I now know that Professor Benjamin Baker, who once taught you, is also from the university..."

"..."

However, it seems that Dumbledore does not intend to care about how Avada came into contact with Nobic Ridge University out of his sight, nor does he intend to interfere with his future, nor does he trust his ability and judgment. Or there are other factors. After seeing Avada fell into silence for a while, he continued: "And don't worry, even in my judgment, Noblic University is indeed trustworthy, and the people who established this school are also An honorable and trustworthy person...except maybe Gellert Grindelwald himself."

"Miranda Gorshak, Damocles Belby, Professor Baker, and even their founder Nobby Rich himself... these people are all acquainted with me, and I know their characters. and character. In fact, after knowing that they founded the university, I didn’t have much doubt left in my heart. The remaining time was just used to confirm whether they had been bewitched and whether the way they acted was influenced by Grindelwald. The impact... To be honest, after confirming this, I was a little bit complaining about why they didn’t bring me along in the first place.”

‘…and enjoy the interaction between you and Grindelwald every day, right? ’

Avada moved her lips, suffocating the words she almost blurted out in time.

"What about... Karkaroff?"

In the end, he chose to ask something so that he could act more naturally: "Why did he become a university student?"

"Karkaroff..."

Dumbledore paused after reading the name, and frowned slightly, as if he didn't know how to describe it: "He is a lucky guy."

"Because the operating model of Durmstrang he took over is exactly what Nobic Ridge University needs most - hundreds of years of concealment from the outside world; the ability to impart knowledge internally without being suppressed by the Ministry of Magic and the School Board. Freedom; and the diplomacy of graduates who will still be recognized internationally even if their reputation is not good internationally...these are extremely valuable experiences for Norwich University."

"And it just so happened that Grindelwald, who had gone to school there and later occupied half of Europe, also knew Durmstrang's position, so they were able to influence Durmstrang's internal affairs and select the person who had just inherited the principal. position, and Karkaroff hasn’t quite settled down yet.”

"And Karkaroff himself is also a guy who is very aware of current affairs. He knows that he is burdened with a disgraceful history. As an Englishman, he is considered a rootless person in Durmstrang, so naturally he will not refuse. The patrons who came to their door—they established a long-term cooperation while each got what they needed, and it worked wonders in this Triwizard Tournament..."

Avada couldn't help but shudder - couldn't this be Grindelwald's decision made through prophecy again?

Although his own arrival to shatter fate is a fatal blow to ordinary prophets, for a master like Grindelwald whose mental power is strong enough to quickly process tiny fragments of possibilities and whose prophecy talent is among the best, it is simply a blow. It’s an epic enhancement...

"You already know what happened next - so, is there anything else you want to ask?"

Dumbledore picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip, and finally explained the intrigues between these groups in the past two years.

"What are you going to do about Voldemort?"

Avada asked again: "It seems that you haven't publicly disposed of Voldemort's main soul - is there any use in keeping it?"

"After this semester, I will let him disappear in front of all reporters, so that this scene can be seen by everyone."

Dumbledore touched the lapel on his chest, which was probably where Voldemort's soul was stored: "Voldemort's complete death will undoubtedly have a huge impact, and I hope to make the most of this impact - and it is the most suitable place to appear. The scene was undoubtedly the final blow to the pure-blood front's defeat, completely destroying their confidence and morale."

"……Right."

Avada nodded after thinking for a while, and then remembered something: "By the way, Professor, now that everything has come to an end..."

He dug into his pockets and placed several former Horcruxes, including the Resurrection Stone, on the table: "You can take these things back, right? Especially these few Hogwarts founding pieces. Human relics..."

"...Thank you very much for your willingness to return them, Mr. Ken."

Dumbledore stood up solemnly. It seemed that he had used great perseverance to prevent his eyes from shifting to the Resurrection Stone immediately. Instead, he first put away the three relics of the founder, the gold cup, the locket and the crown, and then After receiving the diary to another location, he looked at the Resurrection Stone again, but his face looked much better than when he first saw it - it seems that he has restored his memory?

"……really,"

After staring blankly at the Resurrection Stone for who knows how long, Dumbledore laughed miserably, and then slowly stretched out his pale hand: "No matter how many times I remind myself that it is not a real resurrection, I still want to see it again." Look at them, even once..."

As he spoke, he slowly put the ring on his index finger, then stretched out his other hand and came closer...

Click.

As the dusty stone on the ring was moved by Dumbledore's fingers, three rays of light appeared in front of him out of thin air, and gradually transformed into three figures, two tall and one short - they stared expressionlessly. He looked at Dumbledore without blinking.

"..."

Avada watched silently as a line of hot tears slowly slid down from Dumbledore's eyes. She moved her steps without making any noise, then carefully opened the door and quietly exited his room.
