Chapter 1373 Zhounan? !

Harry stared blankly at the golden sand flowing away from Delphi's fingers. The broken glass fragments fell to the floor, just like his frozen heart.

Finished!

It's all over!

Delphi destroyed their time-turner. Not only could they not complete the task assigned to them by Professor Dumbledore, but even their hope of returning to the future had been destroyed!
"You're forcing me."

Amosta took a few quick breaths, and then looked at Delphi with murderous eyes.

"Oh, what makes you think that?"

Delphi opened her palm, and the dial of the time-turner fell to the ground with a clinking sound.

She smiled happily.

"I'm helping you avoid that deadly future, Brian, think about it--"

Delphi took two steps forward, putting on an earnest expression.

"According to normal history, you will indeed become a respected wizard.
But what good will that do to you? Your fame, your power. Everything will be gone, and you will sleep forever in the arms of death.
But if you had chosen not to oppose Voldemort—"

Delphi continued to smile, bewitching Amosta.

"You don't have to submit to Voldemort. As long as you don't stand on the same boat with Dumbledore, you can still become a powerful wizard and be free. Voldemort will respect those talented Slytherin wizards. You can have a complete life and even conquer death -"

"If the price of conquering death is to use a Horcrux to turn yourself into a mindless monster—"

Amosta's eyes were gloomy.

"It's up to you, Brian—"

Delphi said, looking at Harry and the other two who looked like they were lost, with a sneer on her face.
"But no matter what, the history they knew has changed, Harry Potter has been trapped in time, and Voldemort will be the ultimate winner!"

"mean!"

Harry yelled at Delphi, earning a disapproving glare from Amosta.

"Make a choice, Brian—"

Delphi opened her arms to Amosta, smiling proudly,
"You can join forces with me, and together we can kill Harry Potter and his friends. In the future, Voldemort will become your most reliable support, and you can avoid death.

It doesn't matter if you choose to be stubborn, Brian, my goal has been achieved, Voldemort will survive."

Amosta fell silent.

He looked at the three Gryffindor students who were looking at him sadly, and he was indeed a little confused.

Death
He was not that afraid of death. After all, he had already died once.

However, it is a blessing to be able to live a new life in this magical world of magic.

What he has always longed for is to acquire more knowledge of magic, to make himself stronger than Dumbledore, and to have enough time to explore the ultimate secrets of magic.

The Harry Potter who now stood before him looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, and according to his understanding, when he was alive, Harry Potter was only five years old.

So, in about ten years, he will die.
Died to fight against Voldemort, which was Harry Potter's 'world mission'?

This was indeed a bit unacceptable to him!
"How about it?"

Delphi seemed to peer into Amosta's heart from his gloomy face.
"There's nothing more wonderful than life, Brian, and I guess you don't want to die young."

Amosta remained silent, his eyes taking in the expressions of several people.

Delphi, who was confident of victory, smiled smugly, as if he had persuaded Amosta just to enjoy this wonderful moment of victory.
As he remained silent, Harry Potter, who came from the future, stared at him with increasingly more astonishment in his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that he would actually consider cooperating with Delphi.

madness--
Amosta had a blank expression on his face, and this thought flashed through his mind faintly.

Similar to the Gryffindor students he usually met in school, they were easily controlled by their emotions and lacked the ability to think calmly.

"Don't believe her, Professor, she's lying to you!"

Hermione was extremely panicked, she knew that the person in front of her was still Professor Blaine from their student days.

A student who suffered contempt and discrimination at Hogwarts was not the same as the Professor Blaine they met later.

It is indeed possible for Delphi to convince him!
If Professor Brian had not sided with Delphi, then everything might have been able to turn around. But if Professor Brian really let Delphi kill the three of them, then everything would be over!

"This evil woman is just taking advantage of a future we don't know about, Professor!"

Hermione, startled, shouted,
"I don't believe you will die in the future. Professor Dumbledore also thinks you won't die. You just disappeared after the Battle of Hogwarts. The books, coins, and time-twister over there were all given to us by you. It was you who arranged for us to return to the future. Oh, I have something else to say."

Amosta looked calmly at the girl, who seemed to be also disturbed by the situation, and suddenly realized something.

Leaving aside the time converter and the book, there were indeed some traces of magic in the commemorative coin that made him feel familiar. It turned out that it was a backup plan he had left behind.

"Nothing you say can change the future, Granger!"

Delphi glared at Hermione with a sly smile.

"Your Time-Turner is already broken, even if I can't kill you three tonight."

"Zhounan!"

Tears of fear streamed down Hermione's cheeks. Suddenly, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, she shouted at Amosta.

zhounan?

Harry and Ron were also dazed for a moment by this strange yet familiar word, and then they remembered where they had heard it before!
"Zhounan?"

Delphi looked at Amosta with caution and confusion.
"what does that mean?"

Amosta tightened his lips. If the situation did not allow it, he would rush over and interrogate the girl named Granger where she had heard of this name!
She. They actually knew Zhounan
Even they know this?!
"I have no idea--"

Apart from clenching his fists into his sleeves, Amostas shook his head expressionlessly.

He took a deep breath, then looked at Delphi indifferently.

"How can I trust you?"

Amosta whispered, under the incredulous gaze of Harry and the other two,
"If I choose to cooperate with you, how can I ensure that the surviving Voldemort will suddenly appear in front of me and kill me in the next second?"

Amosta narrowed his eyes and pierced Delphi's eyes with a sharp gaze.

"I know a lot about Voldemort's ideas and deeds. He probably wouldn't like a mudblood like me. And he probably doesn't want a wizard with magic power as strong as his to exist in the future?"

"I can make an Unbreakable Vow with you, Blaine!"

Finally gave in!
Delphie was filled with joy, but she tried her best to hide it, still smiling as if everything was under control.

"As long as you don't stop me, I will help you plead with Voldemort. You know, he is my father. I will convince him that you are safe, Brian!"

idiot--
The thought crossed Amosta's mind again.

It seems that Voldemort's daughter's IQ is not that high -
Amosta thought, but his heart was at peace.

From Delphi's answer, he confirmed one thing.

"No need—"

Amosta's tone was indifferent.

"I have seen your sincerity. Well, you guessed it right. I really can't accept that I will die young. Compared to becoming a respected wizard, it is more important to stay alive-"

Amosta said, he glanced at the three distraught Gryffindor students and smiled coldly at them.
"Don't be disappointed in me. What Delphi said is right. Life is the most wonderful thing--"

“An admirable choice!”

Delphi was overjoyed, but she suppressed her desire to kill.

"But you know, Delphi, I won't help you kill someone--"

Amosta stepped aside and walked slowly towards Delphi.

"Maybe I will be very powerful in the future, but at least now, I am still living under Dumbledore's nose. He can see that I have committed murder. So, if you want to kill Harry Potter and his companions, you have to do it yourself--"
