Chapter 366 Love and Sin
( ) 'Love' is a mysterious force. It is majestic, powerful, and encompasses everything in the world. For Muggles, it is a necessary existence to promote social development; for us wizards, it is It is the eternal pursuit and truth.”
Dumbledore was talking leisurely, but Maca was confused.
It's a bit difficult to understand, isn't it? It's okay. It took me my whole life to touch some of the essence of 'love', and it only belongs to me...There are countless ways to explore magic, and you and I choose Yes, they are two completely different journeys, use your own life to experience them well!
Perhaps it's impossible for that kid Tom to understand—he's never tried to understand 'love', and always thinks it's the most useless thing in the world.
But you are different, Maca, I have great confidence in you...
I remember, you should have been to the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic... There is a room there, which has been locked all the time. If you still have a chance, remember to take a look, I believe you will get some of your own inspired.
When Maca heard this, he couldn't help thinking about it, and immediately remembered the first one he touched among the twelve black doors. Behind that black door locked by powerful magic lies a strange energy that he does not understand.
Just as Maca was thinking, Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly.
Oh, time is running out... He closed his eyes for a moment, then continued, Well, as I said just now, I brought you here this time to let you 'take a look' at this place— —Maybe you will also want to search for this place in the future, so I think it might be better for you to take a look first.”
As Dumbledore spoke, he reached out and waved his sleeves. Suddenly, the surrounding streets suddenly turned into a large piece of fog, which dissipated silently.
He showed Maca the dreamlike mist, and explained seriously:
This is a mysterious energy projected by all spirits in the world. It is one of the mysteries of magic that I have been exploring and pursuing. It is my 'truth'.
Having said that, Dumbledore waved his hand again, and the fog once again condensed into the streets and houses just now.
'Material drives appearance, spirit deduces rules'—remember Rowena's little bronze eagle's question? What you see now is the practical application of the 'spiritual deduction rules' in this theory.
However, the 'spirit' is not all positive, and neither are the rules.
Dumbledore said solemnly, The reason why I abandoned my body and came here on my own initiative is to explore what a complete 'spirit' is...
Dumbledore looked at the world in front of him, asking and answering himself.
If 'love' is the positive energy projected by the spirit, how about negative energy?
I tried to find the answer from my old friend, Greenwald, but I, who was still obsessed with 'power' at the time, couldn't find the answer right away. But later, I understood it from Tom's boy! He turned his head and seemed to be looking at Maca, The negative energy projected by the spirit is called 'sin'!
When Dumbledore uttered the word sin, Macka was taken aback for a moment, who was listening intently. But at this moment, Dumbledore's figure blurred for a while, and his voice quickly faded away.
...Son, remember... 'love' and 'sin' are not in conflict...the two are balanced and complementary...they are a whole...
...continue along the...road...see you soon...
In the principal's room, Maca suddenly raised his head from the pensieve, and took two heavy breaths.
He stared at the mirror on the inner wall of the cabinet. In the mirror, his face was pale. For some reason, he felt a sense of loss of strength, but the magic power in his body was not consumed at all.
It's the soul... no, mental fatigue? Maka shook her head, walked heavily to the sofa chair by the window, and sat down heavily.
Although I am confused, I understand one thing— he muttered to himself, If my exploration direction is the tangible rules of the material level, then Dumbledore's should be the non-material level. the invisible rules, right?
Let's not mention the half-understood words, at least the last sentence... It really makes people care about it!
After resting in the principal's office for a while, he looked at the time, only to find that not too long had actually passed. Maca then stood up again, rubbing her face while walking towards the basement.
If nothing else happened, Snape should still be waiting for him in the office!
Hmm...but then again, does Dumbledore really count as 'dead'? Along the way, he struggled with this question, Should...not count?
...
Tuk Tuk Tuk
After knocking on the door of Snape's office, there was an indifferent response from inside. Maca shrugged, then opened the door and walked in.
sit.
Snape said casually, turned from his potions cabinet, and sat behind his desk.
professor?
Seeing that Snape fell into silence as soon as he sat down, Maca had no choice but to call him.
Well, Snape turned to look at Maca, Dumbledore is dead, so what's your plan next?
Originally, Maca thought that Snape called him over, maybe there was something to explain. But who knows, Snape came to ask himself what was his plan first.
He thought about it, then shook his head.
Just keep doing what you have to do! Voldemort's ultimate goal has always been Hogwarts, and for me, if I want to protect important people, I must protect Hogwarts...
In any case, my interests and his are in complete conflict, aren't they?
Snape frowned, a look of boredom appeared on his face again.
Really? He said impatiently, In that case, why don't you just take your little girlfriend away? That guy didn't insist on taking the life of that little Lovegood girl.
Maca looked at Snape in surprise, and said strangely: Professor, are you...
I want to take Potter away. Snape said decisively, 'that person' is no longer obsessed with the original prophecy, that is to say, in 'his' heart, Lily's son is not that important anymore gone.
...You too, take your little girlfriend and go far away, isn't everything settled?
When he said these words, Snape seemed a little shaken.
Maca wasn't too sure about Snape's mood when he made this decision. Perhaps, it was the conversation that night that caused him to have such an idea.
...Is it because of Miss Tia? Maca almost blurted out.
Snape didn't answer, but the confusion in his heart made him forget to maintain his master Occlumency. In his dark and deep eyes, a kind of trembling quietly seeped out.
Professor, you... have you talked with Miss Tia? Maca asked quickly, What's the situation, is Miss Tia—
Snape propped his upper body on his elbows, folded his hands over his mouth, and lowered his eyelids without saying a word.
After a moment of silence, he sighed heavily.
I asked her a question— Snape said in a deep voice, I asked her what her last name was, and she told me... her name was 'Prince'.
Prince? Isn't that—
That's right, my mother's old surname was Prince—Irene Prince. Snape said sullenly, I don't understand why I have a younger sister, I don't understand at all!
So, you are going to find the answer? Take Harry with you? Maca suddenly said.
I don't want to take him, not at all! Snape slapped the table angrily, but I can't... every time I see his eyes, I'll remember—he's Lily's child!
Uh, professor... Maca said helplessly, I didn't say... If you want to take Harry away, Harry will definitely not be willing, right?
When Maca said this, Snape's face darkened even more. He pressed his thin lips tightly, and his contradictory mood almost made him want to explode.
After holding back for a while, he shook his head vigorously.
Then I'll take him away too! Snape frowned, I can't let him stay here—this is the best decision, both for him and for me!
Don't you have any nostalgia for Hogwarts? Maca couldn't help asking, You know, Voldemort has been staring at this school all the time! Maybe he will attack at any time -
With you here, what else do I need to worry about? Snape calmed down now, looking at Maca for a moment, and said, Will you let that guy easily get what he wants?
This made Maca feel a little embarrassed - he could easily accept anyone's compliment, but when Snape also praised himself so bluntly, he really didn't know how to respond.
Professor, that...thank you for your trust first, but how should I put it... Maca collected his thoughts before continuing, To be honest, the Order of the Phoenix is actually quite short of manpower. I feel this deeply...
Although we have never lacked wizards who perform ordinary tasks, there are too few talents like you who keep an overview of the overall situation in some critical tasks.
Now Moody is still missing, and the search for him has been fruitless; and Kingsley has just recovered a little bit, and there is no way to return to the execution sequence immediately...
Speaking of this, Maca said sincerely: Professor Snape, we really need you now—of course, you can go and check on Miss Tia's background first, but I definitely hope you can come back!
I hope Professor you can think about it again, how about it?
