Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil

Chapter 34 Aurelius Dumbledore

Watching the black mist gradually filling the corridor in front of him, Leif retreated slowly...

When facing a beast, the most taboo thing is to run away with your back to it.

Leif was worried that if he turned around and ran, the black mist would rush up!

After all, what difference is there between an Obscurus who has lost his mind...and a beast?

Yes, when he saw the strange black mist and sensed the powerful magic contained within, Leif had already guessed the true identity of this thing.

Credence Barebone, the Obscurial...or rather, he should be called Aurelius Dumbledore, the biological son of Aberforth.

Leif only knew that around 1930, after the Qilin election incident, Aberforth had taken him home.

As for his ending, Leif didn't know.

However, seven or eight years have passed, and judging from the short lifespan of Obscurials, even if Aurelius was exceptionally gifted, his situation now would definitely not be optimistic.

After all, this period has been so long that even Nagini has gradually fallen and disappeared from people's sight...

That Aurelius, as an Obscurial, is still alive has to be said to be a miracle.

Just as Leif was pondering whether to directly break through the floor and run away, or slowly retreat down the stairs.

Suddenly, Aberforth's voice came from behind him.

"Don't move, don't panic..."

Hearing this, Leif immediately stopped.

Then, Aberforth's figure came out from behind Leif.

He cautiously approached the black mist.

"Calm down...Aurelius, calm down, you can do it, I believe in you, right?"

With Aberforth's soft persuasion, the black mist began to tremble.

Gradually, the black mist that filled the entire corridor began to slowly shrink, eventually gathering in the corner of the corridor, turning into a pale-faced young man.

His body trembled uncontrollably, "I...I can't hold on anymore...please, kill me...I can't last much longer anyway, rather than continuing to stay here, not knowing when I will lose control and hurt people, it's better to send me away from this world now..."

"Nonsense! What kind of son forces his father to kill him? Besides, the attic has magic set up by your uncle, even if you lose control, you can't destroy it, don't worry, you won't hurt anyone."

"But this time I ran out without realizing it, didn't I? Even Uncle's magic can't stop me 100%...Father, please promise me...let everything end..."

Aberforth's face was filled with sorrow. "Don't say anymore! Good boy, let's go back, I will stay with you until the end...You don't need to consider anything else! Please...don't force me anymore..."

He helped Aurelius slowly stand up from the ground.

Aurelius's pale face was filled with bitterness, he turned his head to look at Leif, "I'm sorry..."

He seemed to want to say something, but he opened his mouth, and in the end, he didn't say anything.

During this time, Leif didn't say anything, just quietly watched them, and finally, watched them slowly walk up the stairs to the attic.

Now Leif completely understood why Aberforth didn't let them go to the attic.

Because Aurelius hadn't died, he lived in the attic, and because the Obscurial's danger was too great after losing control, many protective spells were set up in the attic.

If he wasn't mistaken, the sound Leif heard just now was the sound of the Obscurus impacting the protective magic.

When he walked out of the corridor, the Obscurus had just broken through the protective magic and ran out, and then ran into him...

Not long after, Aberforth came down with a heavy face.

He came to Leif's side, "If you have any doubts, just ask."

Aberforth knew that this child had accidentally seen Aurelius today, and there would definitely be a lot of questions. It was obviously not okay to not tell him anything.

Children of this age are the most curious, if they go to find "answers" themselves, it might cause trouble...

"What was that just now?" Leif had to ask symbolically.

"That's an Obscurus...You can understand it as a disease, and the person who has that disease is my son, Aurelius Dumbledore. People with this disease can turn into an Obscurus at any time and lose their minds...This time it was an accident, I have reinforced the protective magic again." Aberforth replied.

Leif looked at Aberforth's expression and didn't want to continue asking.

Because asking further would undoubtedly make this poor father recall the tragic past he didn't want to look back on.

Besides, he had already guessed the cause and effect, and there was no need to ask further.

"I don't have any other questions..."

Aberforth looked at Leif in surprise.

If it were him, encountering this kind of thing, there would definitely be many questions, but Leif only asked one question and then stopped asking?

But Aberforth quickly understood Leif's thoughts.

"Okay...come find me if you have any questions." Aberforth took a deep look at Leif and turned to walk down the stairs.

'What a gentle child...' Aberforth thought in his heart.

No mistake, first issue, first content, see at once!

...

Tom woke up at three in the afternoon.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Leif practicing Transfiguration, turning a match into various shapes.

Damn it! You let me sleep, but you were secretly working hard? Too shameless!

Leif raised his head and saw Tom glaring at him with a face full of grief.

"How was your sleep? You look much more energetic."

"How was my sleep, don't you know best?" Tom glared at Leif angrily.

"Okay, okay, I know you don't want to see me anymore, Tom." Leif waved his hand and said, "Whatever, I was just thinking about how to leave anyway."

Tom frowned, "What do you mean?"

Leif took out a key and waved it in front of Tom.

"As a rich man who has saved five or six thousand Galleons in Gringotts, there is really no need to live under someone else's roof. Wouldn't it be nice to buy a house myself? If not, I can find a place and build a house myself! I have Toby to take care of my daily life, why would I need a guardian?"

With a huge amount of Galleons and valuable gold bars, Leif certainly had the necessary conditions to live alone.

The most important thing was that living alone, he could carry out many experiments that he had been thinking about but didn't have the conditions to carry out.

These experiments couldn't be carried out with a guardian watching...

Tom shook his head, "Dumbledore won't agree. If he doesn't agree, you definitely won't be able to do this, don't even think about it. You should know that he is not as kind as he looks on the surface."

"You have a point, but I will definitely think of a way." Leif frowned and thought.

"Also, don't forget, those thousands of Galleons and gold bars you mentioned, half of them are mine!" Tom emphasized.

In the beginning, the work was done by two people, the trouble was also caused by two people, and the money earned, no matter how, he, Tom, had to get half!

"Oh, of course, of course, you'll get your share." Leif put the Gringotts key back.

After a moment of silence, Tom suddenly asked, "If...if you can think of a way to move out...can you take me with you?"

"What?" Leif looked at Tom in shock, "Don't you not want to be with me? Tom, don't have any designs on me! I don't have any interest in men!"

"Damn it! What dirty thoughts are in your head!" Tom's face was full of black lines, "I mean...we move out together, get rid of the so-called guardian's restraint, and then go our separate ways!"
