Chapter 448

"A turning point has occurred, hiss..."

"The huge thing destroys everything...in destiny...the cry of new life..."

"The Dark Lord dies from a powerful enemy, and those who touch the taboo will not die well, and the gears of destiny will be disrupted."

A series of strange voices sounded in his ears, and John listened to the entire prophecy.

He was silent for a while.

"The gears of destiny will be disrupted, and the Dark Lord will die from his powerful enemy?"

He pondered, this seemed to have predicted the death of the Dark Lord.

It's just that this Dark Lord, I don't know if he is Voldemort or Grindelwald.

As for saying 'Those who touch taboos will not end well', it seems to be a warning to John.

"The fate has changed. The Dark Lord and the Savior no longer seem to be facing each other for life and death."

John rubbed his fingers on the smooth surface of the crystal ball.

The Dark Lord died at the hands of his powerful enemy.

Does this powerful enemy still refer to the savior, or does it refer to another person.

Or Grindelwald and Dumbledore?

John snapped his fingers and threw the crystal ball into one of the nine doors.

He clapped his hands and prophesied that no matter who it was, it clearly stated the death of the Dark Lord, which was enough for John to give Trelawney a raise.

The amount of wine Trelawney drinks on a daily basis is more than ten times her salary.

"The world's causal weapon, the prophet is really scary."

John closed the door so that the crystal ball would not appear again.

Chapter 472 Dumbledore’s Memory

Slytherin has a game soon.

The opponent is the Ravenclaw Quidditch team.

The captain of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team is Cho Chang, Cedric's girlfriend.

As captain, Malfoy doubled the amount of training and made the Quidditch players miserable.

John even thinks that if he continues like this, he won't be afraid of Astoria breaking up with him?

Classes were getting intense.

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Sirius taught the students how to deal with giants.

But facing that big guy is not as simple as dealing with a giant monster.

Everyone needs to hand in a paper on dealing with giants when they return, and how to escape from the giants as quickly and efficiently as possible.

The school has a stormy atmosphere, and Professor McGonagall has left a lot of homework on Transfiguration.

There are more and more homework in Potions class, which makes many people breathless.

The matter of Ron's poisoning was still brewing, but the tension was diluted as the second Saturday in March arrived.

A Quidditch match begins.

Hufflepuff vs. Gryffindor.

Many people thought that Gryffindor had a great chance of winning against Hufflepuff now.

But the results were shocking.

The wicketkeeper McLagan, as usual, was at odds with his teammates, grabbing the batsman's stick during the game and demonstrating how to play.

When Captain Harry went to dissuade him, he happened to receive a solid blow.

Gryffindor's Seeker was offline, and even though Ginny and Katie Bell tried hard to score, they still couldn't reverse the situation.

The final score stopped.

320:60

This score made Malfoy happy all day long.

He mocked wantonly: "If you can't lead the team well, how can Porter compete?"

After losing two games in a row, Gryffindor basically said goodbye to the possibility of winning.

This made Malfoy feel very good, and he also became tolerant of his teammates.

"As expected, Harry is his true love." John sighed with emotion.

I heard that Malfoy even went to the school hospital to laugh at Harry. If Harry's skull hadn't been smashed, he would have got up and had a fight with Malfoy.

In the auditorium, John met Qiu Zhang.

This seventh-year Ravenclaw will graduate next year and wants to fulfill his last wish and defeat that skunk Malfoy.

She came over and spoke harshly to Slytherin.

"Let that skunk boy get cleaned up and ready to be defeated by Ravenclaw."

Cho Zhang is still remembering how she was almost knocked down by Malfoy last school year.

John said that he would tell Malfoy, provided that Malfoy would feel nervous.

Daphne saw John sitting down and said, "I saw a few Ravenclaw boys courting Qiu Zhang."

"Don't worry, she looks down on those people." John chuckled, "Don't forget that she is also the president of the student union."

Cedric felt at ease with Qiu Zhang, and the two of them had been exchanging letters.

Even the owl that delivered the message to the two of them suffered a lot, and the barn owls in the owl hut lost a lot of weight.

…

Monday.

Harry is discharged from hospital.

Ron was still lying there, and Madam Pomfrey said that although he had not deteriorated, he would need to be nursed back to health for a long time to slowly remove the toxins.

Harry tried to find an antidote in the book "Advanced Potion Making", but whether it was bezoar or anything else, it had no effect on Ron now.

You can only slowly recuperate your body.

On the night of the poisoning, the Weasley family came to school to visit Ron. Not long after, Mrs. Weasley was very sad.

This year has been very difficult for their family.

Yesterday, Ron woke up, but he was still too weak to move.

After hearing that Harry was sent to the school hospital by McLagen, causing Gryffindor to lose the game, Ron said weakly: "I'm going to kill McLagen."

Obviously Ron can't do this now.

The classroom without Ron didn't change much, except that Hermione and Harry often visited Ron.

There seemed to be a real rift in Ginny and Dean's relationship, and they were once caught arguing in the common room.

night.

Harry went to the gatekeeper's office as usual.

Dumbledore was there waiting for his arrival.

"Professor, why me?" Harry couldn't help but ask.

Dumbledore took a bottle from the shelf containing many memories and opened it. His hands paused and he looked at Harry kindly.

"Why you, Harry?"

Harry nodded and said, "I'm not as good as you think."

He wanted to ask why Dumbledore chose to train himself.

"Obviously John is better, wouldn't it be better to deal with Voldemort if he were the one?" Harry asked doubts, and at the same time showed his unconfident side to Dumbledore, and said in despair, "And Neville, he is also very good. Isn’t it?”

"No, Harry."

The gentle old man full of wisdom shook his head and said: "You have something they don't have."

"Love?" Harry said irritably, "But what's the use of this love?"

"Love is the most powerful force, Harry." The memory in Dumbledore's bottle was poured into the pensieve. "There is no enemy that love cannot defeat."

The scene in the pensieve changed, and Dumbledore said gently: "We can find the answer from here, and we can see the difference between you and him."

Harry hesitated for a moment, nodded and stuck his head in.

The scene in front of me changed.

Not this small office, but a place that feels familiar.

The room that once held the Mirror of Erised.

Harry saw himself going out, and he remembered the scene as something deeply impressed upon him.

Dumbledore appeared next to Harry, looked at himself five years ago, touched his beard and said, "My beard was really beautiful at that time."

Harry didn't understand what Dumbledore was doing here. After a while, he saw Dumbledore talking to the air.

"Perhaps I should speak to you face to face, too, Mr. Wick."

In the originally empty room, John's figure gradually appeared.

Only then did Harry realize that after he left that day, John actually went inside.

In his memory, Dumbledore praised John's Disillusionment Charm and then asked what John saw in the mirror.

"Good food, lots of good food... and I become stronger."

Listening to John's words, Harry felt a little dazed.

John was indeed moving in the direction he desired.

"You are indeed the best suited for Slytherin, there is no doubt about that."

"Promise me John not to touch those irreversible magics."

"I promise you Professor."

The two made an agreement under Harry's nose. At the same time, Harry learned that in the first year, Dumbledore had already discovered that he was looking for clues to the Sorcerer's Stone.

He couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

"Yes, Harry," Dumbledore said, looking at the young John, "I know what you did in first year."

"You want to ask me why I do this?"

Dumbledore said: "At that time I thought I was in control, but it turned out that I was too arrogant."

"Including for John,"

The memory ends and they return to the gatekeeper's office.

"He is not like you, Harry," Dumbledore continued. "John is not a man of rules, and his understanding of taboos is a gesture of exploitation."

"It's going to scare people, including a certain confused old man."

Dumbledore realized at that time that the boy named John Wick did not have much respect for taboos.

"I admit that I have selfish motives, Harry," Dumbledore said honestly. "I know too little about John, but you are different."

"I know you better than you think, and I feel like I need to guide you."

Harry asked uncertainly: "You know..."

"Is John going to be as good as Tom Riddle?" said Dumbledore.

Yes.

Harry didn't say it out loud, but this was the look on his face.
