Chapter 290: The Task Given to Draco and Harry
Dumbledore heard Hephaestus's laughter and mistakenly thought that he was thinking the same thing as he was.
So he spoke slowly, "It's sad that Voldemort is always so indifferent to things he doesn't value.
I know absolutely nothing about love and loyalty.
If he knew the terrible power of the Sacrifice Talisman on Harry, he would not dare to touch Harry's blood. "
"Headmaster, you didn't ask me to come here just to listen to you complain about Voldemort, did you?"
Hephaestus couldn't say that Dumbledore was wrong.
But who has so much time to study in depth things that they are not interested in or think are useless?
Dumbledore said with a serious expression, "There is a fragment of Voldemort's soul living in Harry's body.
I was thinking, if Voldemort could kill Harry himself, and Harry couldn't be killed,
Then will that soul fragment be destroyed?"
Hephes also fell into deep thought.
He had to admit that Dumbledore's idea was very bold.
But the chances of success are indeed great.
Most importantly, this duel must be fought by Voldemort himself.
"Did you ask me to come here to plan a one-on-one duel between Voldemort and Harry?"
Dumbledore nodded, "Yes, I believe you can do it."
"Has Harry been dreaming recently?" Hephis wanted to confirm.
"Yes. Just two days ago, he told me that Voldemort was extremely excited in his dream." Dumbledore answered softly.
"Okay, leave it to me." Hephis has indeed been a little bored recently.
Besides, after finding Voldemort, it wouldn't waste much time to let Harry appear for a while.
"One more thing." Dumbledore said seriously.
"The last Horcrux is still unidentified. I wonder if you have any solution."
Hephis leaned back in his chair, "Why do you insist on destroying Voldemort?"
Dumbledore was stunned. He didn't expect Hephis to ask such a question.
Dumbledore was stunned. He didn't understand why Hephis asked this.
"What Voldemort did was not even one thousandth of the impact I had."
Hephaestus's emerald eyes stared at Dumbledore.
"You can tolerate me, so why do you have to kill Voldemort?"
Dumbledore opened his mouth and fell silent.
After a long time, he said, "You are different from him."
Hephis sneered, "Is it because I have love?"
"Because your starting point is for the wizards."
Dumbledore leaned forward and placed his hands on the table.
"I know that many things that happened internationally were caused by you.
Even your hands are already stained with blood."
"There is no turning back for wizards now." There was some reluctance in Dumbledore's voice.
Hephis shrugged, "I still want to know, is the reason you want to destroy Voldemort just because of the prophecy?"
Dumbledore shook his head, his eyes sad.
He sighed, "Because of hatred."
Was it because of hatred?
This answer surprised Hephis, but it made sense.
He looked at Dumbledore in front of him and suddenly felt that this old man was very different from what he remembered.
More than ten years ago, Dumbledore founded the Order of the Phoenix.
During that era, their battle against Voldemort and his Death Eaters was extremely brutal.
Many people paid the price with their lives.
Even after Voldemort temporarily disappeared, people were still being hunted and tortured by Death Eaters.
"I understand." Hephis nodded.
He didn't care whether or not to kill Voldemort.
He had not experienced that dark age and did not have any deep hatred for Voldemort.
But he would leave that decision to Snape.
Hephis continued, "After I capture Voldemort, I will use his shadow to locate the Horcrux."
Dumbledore leaned back in his chair. "I want Harry to learn Occlumency and Legilimency."
"Are you planning to have Harry reverse-hack Voldemort's brain to locate him?"
Hephaestus immediately understood his intention.
Dumbledore nodded.
"I'll find a suitable person to teach him." Hephis responded.
That night, Hephis went to Hagrid's house.
There they found Draco and Harry sweating profusely.
Draco is now acting more and more like Theodore, the King of Curls.
Apart from attending classes, eating and sleeping, he now practices magic with Hagrid.
It wasn't that he didn't have the money to buy a box with an Infinite Extension Charm.
The main thing is that this person is there to accompany you.
Although Harry no longer had the pressure of the Triwizard Tournament.
But seeing that Draco, who was ten times stronger than him, was working so hard, he had no right to slack off.
Add to that the threat of Voldemort's resurrection.
He didn't go back to Gryffindor Tower now either.
Every day I follow Draco to learn magic, and then stay overnight at Hagrid's place.
"Draco, Harry, I need your help with something." Hephis stated his purpose straight away.
"What is it? I will do my best."
When Draco heard about the mission, he immediately became excited.
Isn't he training so hard just to be able to help Hephis one day?
Harry nodded as well.
Hephis was his savior, so of course he was willing to help.
"I need to find Voldemort." Hephis turned to Harry, "Harry, this requires your participation."
"You say, I'll listen to you." Harry answered without hesitation.
"You can connect with Voldemort through dreams, so I want you to master this ability.
Then invade his consciousness and find out his location." Hephis explained.
"But..." Harry seemed a little hesitant.
He had no control over his dreams at all.
"It actually has to do with your willpower. Draco will help you."
Hephis looked at Draco, "Draco, you will teach Harry Occlumency and Legilimency."
Draco's mind worked quickly and he immediately understood Hephis's intention.
"Don't worry, Harry, I'll teach you.
Once you master these two techniques, it will be easy to hack into Voldemort's brain."
"Harry, don't stress too much. There are many ways to find Voldemort."
Hephis patted Harry on the shoulder.
This little guy doesn’t even know how awesome his cheat is.
A shadow silently merged into Draco's body.
Hephis said jokingly, "Then I won't disturb your two private time together."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Draco and Harry were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
Gradually, a blush appeared on their faces.
Finally, it was Harry who broke the awkwardness, "Draco, you come and teach me Occlumency and Legilimency."
Draco smiled and nodded.
