Harry Potter: Glory Bows to Me

Chapter 40 What can’t kill me only makes me stronger

"Miss Merlin, you are very knowledgeable. Although I don't know how you knew about the Philosopher's Stone, it is true that they used the power of the Philosopher's Stone to reshape a body for you."

"I read in a book that this is their most outstanding achievement."

Amanta explained.

"If that's the case, then why did they send me to an orphanage?"

"Mr. and Mrs. Flamel are too old. It is not a good choice to let them take care of you."

There is some truth in what Dumbledore said.

In everyone's eyes, the Flamel couple are old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years. It is indeed unrealistic to ask them to take care of a newborn baby.

"The wizarding world was in danger at the time. Under the shadow and threat of Voldemort, wizards were all worried about their own safety. No one was willing to accept a baby of unknown origin... Secondly, to prevent someone from knowing your identity and taking advantage of you, so finally, at my suggestion, they sent you to the orphanage in Osenna."

"Unfortunately, the secret of the Philosopher's Stone's ability to reshape the body eventually got out."

"Dear Miss Merlin, I'm afraid Voldemort has already known about this. For so many years, he has been planning to come back here and rebuild a body for himself, just like the Flamels did for you."

Amanta couldn't help but ask.

"So... you hid the Philosopher's Stone in the right corridor on the fourth floor?"

"Miss Merlin, I have told you too much."

Dumbledore smiled gently and did not explain further.

Amanta nodded.

She understood, and it would be impolite to ask further.

"As for Miss Parkinson... I think she will receive the punishment she deserves for her actions, probably spending a few years in Azkaban." Dumbledore glanced at the clock in his arms, "I'm afraid the people from the Ministry of Magic are here."

"Okay, Professor."

Amanta silently taught herself a lesson for her own stupidity and blind self-confidence.

Today, Daphne was pestering her at the door of her dormitory. If it weren't for her arrogance and blindness, she would have even forgotten to tell the dean, Draco or Harry about it.

She went there alone, and she had the delusion that she could easily convince Pansy.

Unless you make a mistake in something, you will never be able to see clearly the nature of human beings.

She still underestimated a person's stubborn and selfish nature.

However, one learns from adversity.

Being unkillable will only make her stronger.

Dumbledore's wise eyes peered through the semicircular lenses.

"Ms. Merlin, I have one last thing to remind you. It is the choices that determine a person's fate, not just his ability."

"You and Harry are friends, and I believe you can help him get on the right path."

"..."

Amanta nodded seriously, but with a hint of embarrassment.

It seems that the rumors outside that she and Harry are the third generation of Dark Lords have also reached Dumbledore's ears.

It is ability, not choice, that determines destiny. Dumbledore should have known about her speech in the Slytherin common room.

She told the Slytherins to improve their abilities and unite for common interests when necessary, so that they could truly control their own destiny and gain honor instead of relying on others.

And Dumbledore said that choices determine destiny.

The choice here is almost without thinking that it is a choice between black and white, good and evil.

These words clearly warned her not to follow Voldemort's path.

In addition, there is one more thing. I am afraid that at present, besides her, only two other people in the world know it - Snape and Dumbledore.

She admired Dumbledore personally.

However, except Snape and her, no one knew that Dumbledore's plan had already determined the final outcome: Harry would definitely die.

Harry will die with Voldemort.

Harry was a discarded pawn from beginning to end.

So he sent Harry to Aunt Petunia's house when he was just an infant, instead of putting him in the safer Hogwarts - he was afraid of developing more emotional connections with Harry.

Snape once questioned Dumbledore: "You keep him like a pig to be slaughtered."

But she couldn't question Dumbledore.

On a macro level, Dumbledore's choice is a moral dilemma.

Should we choose the life of one person or the lives of the majority? Just like the trolley problem, no one can give the right answer.

In the original plot, during the Battle of Hogwarts, Voldemort's Avada Kedavra only killed a small piece of soul fragment on the scar on Harry's forehead. Afterwards, Harry rebounded the Killing Curse through complicated wand rules and killed Voldemort.

But this is all luck, coincidence - a series of coincidences

The world has changed so much because of her arrival.

She still doesn't know what the future will be like seven years from now.

She also didn't want anyone around her to die.

and so……

She must take on the responsibility that Harry should have borne and kill Voldemort - if Harry can't do it, if Harry can't do it, then she will have to do it.

It was her duty.

Slytherins pledge to take responsibility for their actions.

What's more, Voldemort is also the biggest obstacle in her way forward.

Killing Voldemort - and replacing him - is indeed what Amanta wants most at the moment.

She was not willing to stay in school as an ordinary professor after graduation, or seek a small position in the Ministry of Magic, or be like most women in wizarding families, marrying and having children, busying herself all her life and doing nothing.

Ordinary people's happiness - that was not what she wanted.

She would not follow Voldemort's path. Voldemort took a narrow path, while she would take a broad road.

Voldemort was not destined to associate with the majority, but she wanted to have the followers of all wizards - the center of power, leading everyone to a brighter future for the wizarding world - leading the change in the wizarding world.

She wants to be a person who can single-handedly stir up the wizarding world.

She wants all wizards to be able to walk upright in the sun.

No longer hiding in the shadow of the world, no longer afraid of the encirclement and confrontation of Muggles, and even - peaceful coexistence and mutual promotion, technology and magic will eventually combine into more brilliant fruits.

She came from a time when technology was even more advanced than most of the magic in this world.

There are still many, many things she needs to do.

When Amanta walked out of the headmaster's office, she thought about it and turned around to remind Dumbledore: "Be careful of Professor Quirrell."

I don't know how Dumbledore will handle this, but Voldemort is currently at his weakest.

It would be best if Quirrell and Voldemort could be dealt with in advance.

But her words were somewhat abrupt.

Dumbledore pushed up his glasses in confusion.

"Why do you say that, Miss Merlin?"

Amanta knew that her words were an unfounded accusation against a teacher, so she added: "At the opening banquet, Harry looked at Professor Quirrell and his scar began to hurt. I suspect it has something to do with Voldemort."

Dumbledore's silver-white eyebrows moved, as if he was thinking about something.

After a moment, he said, "Thank you for your reminder, Miss Merlin."
