Chapter 61 The truth behind the scenes

'No wonder Voldemort claimed that his magical attainments were greater than Dumbledore's!'

'Dumbledore did not completely deny it, but bluntly stated that Voldemort's attainments in the dark arts were indeed better than his own.'

'Isn't that better than Old Dumbledore? He is almost immune to black magic attacks, and the black magic he casts has a power bonus!'

Thinking of this, Wright couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and asked Principal Deng, who was sitting opposite him with a nonchalant look on his face, in a hoarse voice: "What is his weakness?"

Principal Deng at his desk did not answer, but continued to tap the table with his right hand, as if he was choosing his words.

"Wright, you should know how Voldemort died!" Principal Deng stopped tapping and looked at Wright.

"Uh! Are you still testing me?"

Wright scratched his head in confusion and thought to himself. Then he said, "I know. He was killed by the magic rebounding killing curse!"

Seeing that Wright obviously knew the inside story of the incident, Principal Deng nodded with satisfaction.

"If I tell you that it was not the Killing Curse that killed Voldemort, but the Protection Curse! Would you believe it?"

Looking at Wright with a frown on his face, Principal Deng chuckled for a moment and said, "Indeed, the protection spell is a defensive spell. It will only deflect the attack, not directly kill!"

"But you should also know that the Killing Curse only attacks the soul directly and does not cause much damage to the body. Then why was Voldemort blown to pieces without leaving any residue?"

Wright, who had calmed down, began to think based on the information provided by Principal Deng.

"If Fiendfyre can break through Voldemort's immunity to the dark arts, then the Killing Curse, which is at the same level as it, can also do the same. There is nothing wrong with that."

"Then why would the black magic that attacks the soul directly destroy the body? There is only one possibility!"

After thinking for a long time, Wright slowly raised his head, looked at Principal Deng, and expressed his guess:

"Attribute reversal! The protection spell changes the magic that attacks the soul into magic that destroys the body. But it's not right!"

"Let alone Voldemort's resistance to dark magic, he himself has done a lot of research on the Killing Curse, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to block it!"

As he spoke, Wright began to question himself.

Deng didn't say anything, but looked at Wright with a smile on his face as he rubbed his temples with his hands.

Wright was brainstorming crazily, not paying attention to any interference. With countless clues and knowledge in his mind, an absurd but reasonable reason appeared in Wright's mind.

"It's not that Voldemort doesn't want to stop it, but that he can't stop it!"

Wright slowly put down his hands that were rubbing his temples and looked at Principal Deng with shock.

"White magic!"

"Voldemort's weakness is white magic! The dark magic properties of the Killing Curse have been reversed into white magic. He can't resist white magic, right?"

Seeing Principal Deng's satisfied smile and nod of approval, Wright's doubts were finally answered.

"Why is it that if Horcruxes are so important to Voldemort, he doesn't make them wholesale?"

"It's because the side effects are too great. Voldemort, who created seven Horcruxes, has a completely negative resistance to white magic!"

"That's why there was the famous scene where the magic master's weapon was taken away by the Disarming Curse! It turns out that white magic has a critical hit on Voldemort."

Seeing Principal Deng looking at him with a smile, Wright couldn't help but complain.

"No wonder old Dumbledore is so calm. He died when he said he would. It was so quick and decisive! It turns out that as long as we can find Voldemort's weakness, he can't turn the tables."

"No wonder Principal Deng, who is an expert in the Dark Arts, didn't teach Harry any Dark Arts. It turns out that it is not necessary at all."

Light's thoughts were churning, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why Harry! Is it just because of the prophecy? You clearly know his fatal weakness."

Hearing Wright's question, Principal Deng put away his smile! He sighed slowly and said helplessly:

"Don't think you're so omnipotent! White magic doesn't have a problem with causing too much damage, and I have no way to solve it!"

"It's not difficult to defeat him using white magic, but it's very difficult to kill him! And Voldemort is not a fool. He is very wary of me and will run away immediately if he sees something wrong!"

After saying this, Principal Deng spread his hands, as if explaining to Wright the purpose of his actions.

"The prophecy is only part of the reason, but more importantly, Harry has an extremely powerful patronus spell on him.

This patronus is amplified by 'pure love' and it is the key to defeating Voldemort."

Hearing this, Wright took a deep breath inexplicably.

"Hiss! Good fellow! Whoever has the protective spell is the savior, right?"

Principal Deng seemed to know what Wright was thinking. He put his fists on the table, his expression a little uncertain, and spoke in a low voice.

"It's indeed very utilitarian, but there are many things in this world that cannot be accomplished by ideals alone!"

"I want you to give Harry the credit for defeating Quirrell and foiling Voldemort's plot!"

Facing Principal Deng's scorching gaze, Wright frowned slightly.

"That's totally fine with me. Is this the way you want to cultivate Harry's love for Hogwarts?"

"This is part of the reason! Can you promise me?" Principal Deng said vaguely.

"No problem, I don't care about these things!" Wright looked indifferent.

"By the way, you will really give me the Philosopher's Stone, right? You won't find any reason not to give it to me, right?" Looking at Old Dumbledore, who had become smiling because he agreed not to compete with Harry for fame, Wright couldn't help but ask vigilantly.

"Of course, even if you don't get the recognition of the previous owner, I will give it to you when you graduate." After saying that, Principal Deng winked at Wright mischievously.

Looking at Old Deng who was like a child, Wright almost couldn't help but want to ask him to sign a document.

"Okay! Go back and have some rest first! It's getting late!" Principal Deng glanced at the wall clock and began to chase the guests away.

"Che! You're so heartless and start chasing us away after you've accomplished your goal." Wright complained in his heart and said goodbye with a smile.

As Wright left the office and closed the door, the bright room began to darken.

"Is this your trump card? How many Horcrux locations have you obtained? Why don't you just ask him directly?" Teacher Si, who was wearing a black robe and almost blending into the darkness in the room, suddenly appeared and stared at Principal Deng with empty eyes.

“Three: the Philosopher’s Stone, the characteristics of the Horcruxes, and Voldemort’s weaknesses! He used Occlumency very well, and I only briefly broke through his defense at these three points.” Principal Deng rubbed his forehead and sighed slightly.

"Severus, Wright is my student as well as yours! I hope you can understand!" Principal Deng's voice was no longer gentle, and he answered Severus' question calmly.

"Which three?" Teacher Si didn't care about Principal Deng's attitude. He skipped the topic and asked directly about the Horcruxes.

"Ravenclaw's Diadem of Wisdom in the Room of Requirement"

"Hufflepuff's Gold Cup in Bella Trix's Vault at Gringotts"

"The ring of the Gaunt family, the home of Voldemort's father Marvolo, has a terrible curse on it!" After the location of the Horcrux was revealed, Principal Deng couldn't help but sigh deeply.
