Chapter 263 Ariana Dumbledore
When he and Grindelwald pursued the power of the Deathly Hallows,
How could he not recognize the emblem of the Peverell family engraved on the ring?
Coupled with Grindelwald's attitude...
Grindelwald said calmly,
"Yes, the Resurrection Stone. The Gunter family is also the descendant of Peverell. They made the Resurrection Stone into a ring and passed it down."
"This is why we can't find the Resurrection Stone. These madmen transformed the Resurrection Stone into a ring."
"How about it, deal or not? I'll go up and have a rest first, and you'll give me a confirmation later."
Dumbledore did not answer Grindelwald's words.
Grindelwald also knew enough to go to the lounge upstairs. Ariana probably didn't want to see him right now.
When Grindelwald reached the upstairs lounge, Dumbledore couldn't wait to use it.
How many years have passed since I last saw... Ariana, his sister.
Unlike the legendary wizards summoned by Raven and the others, there was a lot of movement.
Nothing unusual happened when I summoned Ariana.
Although Ariana was an Obscurial during her lifetime, that magic power belongs to this world and cannot be taken with her to the afterlife.
How else would it be called "Another Great Adventure"?
The one who was summoned was a little girl with long blond hair and blue eyes.
She was wearing a floral dress that may seem a little old-fashioned now, but every stitch and thread was filled with her mother's hard work.
Dumbledore's eyes suddenly turned red. He remembered that this dress was destroyed when Ariana ran away silently.
Then this skirt must have been made by my mother for my sister.
The little girl hasn't figured out the situation yet.
She was obviously with her parents, so why did she suddenly come here.
The magic power around her, as well as the slight rejection, were all sending her a message.
[This is the present world],
And she, Ariana Dumbledore, has been dead for more than ninety years.
The unfamiliar environment made her feel anxious, and her hands involuntarily grasped the hem of her skirt.
He used so much force that he could see the veins popping up on his palms.
But she didn't seem to notice,
Dumbledore finally realized that the sudden cross-border pressure had put on his sister and that he urgently needed relief.
So he read the little girl's name softly, gently, and full of nostalgia.
"Ariana, don't be afraid."
The little girl looked away from the surrounding furnishings and looked at the old gentleman below.
He is tall, thin and tall, with silver-white waist-length hair, and wears a robe with stars all over it.
Half-moon glasses are placed on the bridge of the crooked nose,
【He is so old! 】
Ariana half sighed and half envied thinking, after all, she herself didn't live long.
This old gentleman looked very kind and gave Ariana a very familiar feeling, especially his blue eyes.
It's just that he is too old and a little muddy,
With the feeling of intimacy from the bottom of her heart foreshadowing, the little girl plucked up the courage and asked timidly,
"Old sir, where is this place? Who are you? Did you call me here? Aren't my parents here?"
Dumbledore didn't know what to say for a moment.
I could only follow Ariana's question and answered word for word at a loss,
"This is the headmaster's office at Hogwarts, my office, I am..."
But Dumbledore wasn't done yet.
The little girl, Ariana's spiritual shadow, rushed to Dumbledore's side quickly,
"Albus!" Ariana cried out happily,
I wanted to hug Dumbledore's waist, but unfortunately she was just a spirit body, so the hug was empty.
But the little girl didn't care, she giggled,
This world will reduce their emotions, but the happy emotions she gained at this time are enough to sustain them for a long time.
Dumbledore also smiled like before, brushing Ariana's hair with his palms covered with wrinkles and age spots.
Feeling the unique coldness of the spirit body, the smile on Dumbledore's face faded.
Then he became serious. He looked at his sister who was still looking at the principal's office curiously and said,
"Ariana, I'm sorry."
He was referring to the fact that he killed his sister.
For more than ten years after that incident, he did not dare to face that past event.
Dumbledore once replayed the memory of that day through the pensieve, and he was sure that the curse that killed Ariana was made by himself.
And that curse was originally aimed at the other two people he loved most.
This became a knot in his mind that continues to this day.
The little girl floated back, smiled at Dumbledore and said,
"It's not your fault Albus, and I also lived well afterwards."
"Dad was the first to go, then mom. Mom and dad picked me up together."
"That's how I apologized to my mother at the time, but my mother said that we are a family and we don't need to worry about this."
"We are living a good life as a family now, and you are doing well here."
"I heard from the Potter children. They said that you became the headmaster of Hogwarts, and your parents are very happy."
Then the little girl clasped her fingers and said,
"And grandpa, grandma, and great-grandfather, and..."
There are so many people who are happy about it, and the little girl can’t even count them, so she simply won’t count them.
"Anyway, there are many, many people who are happy for you! They say that our Dumbledore family has another big shot."
As she spoke, Ariana frowned,
"But...but everyone is worried about you, because no one has heard whether you are married or not."
"I haven't heard if you have any descendants, and my parents are worried about Aberforth because no one has heard of him."
The little girl asked worriedly,
"Albus, Aberforth, is he okay?"
Feeling the long-lost concern from his relatives, Dumbledore's eyes became even redder.
He stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes and said,
"Aberforth is very nice. He bought the Hog's Head pub and has been living there ever since."
"He also had a child named Credence Barebone, also known as Aurelius Dumbledore. Unfortunately, he died in 1932."
"Oh, by the way, have you seen him?"
Ariana's eyes suddenly opened wide when she heard the name!
"Eh? Mr. Bayleben...oh no, it should be Credence. He is actually Aberforth's son? Is he our family member?"
Ariana's reaction made Dumbledore particularly curious.
The little girl explained,
"Credence and his wife Nagini live next to our house, and our parents love him very much."
"Mom said before that when she saw Credence was unhappy, she thought of Aberforth,"
"She was always talking and worrying, saying, 'Aberforth is going to be this unhappy when he grows up.'"
Then Ariana opened her blue eyes wide and looked at Dumbledore expectantly,
"Albus, please call your parents, little Credence, and Sister Nagini...oh no, little Nagini, please."
"Then how about we go visit Aberforth, we miss you both."
