Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 302 Wise Choices

Instead of being afraid of the octave spider, he was worried about the strange unknown hidden deep in the cave.

“Let's go back!” Ivan whispered to Gore and Crabbe.

He tried not to think about what happened to Malfoy because it made him feel bad. Ask yourself, if Harry or Hermione were dragged down by the octave spider, he might not have any hesitation to go straight in and save them even if they were dead.

Because they are their friends and are vital in their lives.

But Malfoy, Ivan hesitated!

He is not a god, he is not as powerful as Dumbledore, nor is he as fearless as Harry in the final battle.

Admit it or not, he's just an ordinary man.

Yeah, he's just an ordinary guy with better luck.

He knows the future of the world and all the characters, so he can bravely fight, fight the established future, and even have the courage to resist Voldemort.

Because he knew, that's why he tried to change and stop the tragedy.

But when the future was really changed by itself, Ivan started to get scared again.

The moment Peter the dwarf was caught by himself, he knew there would be such a day. For the past six months, he had studied magic so hard to improve his strength that he thought it was the only way to confront a changed future.

But Ivan found himself wrong, as Dumbledore had always tried to tell him, whether a person was strong was not so much about how much magic he possessed, but about his heart.

Voldemort possesses unimaginable power, but his heart is exceptionally fragile, afraid of death despite his evil and cruelty, and he does everything in his power to escape.

This is his ignorance, so no matter how much magic he possesses and how much magic he masters, Dumbledore will never be afraid of him.

As for myself...

Ivan took a deep breath and tried not to think about these things.

He repeatedly told himself that it was the wisest option to abandon Malfoy and stay away from this strange cave.

Yes, even so.

He turned around to Buckbeak and was ready to go back and inform the others as soon as possible.

Though many people think he is a genius, they even admire and envy him and think he is different.

But Ivan himself knew that he was no different from other ordinary little wizards.

“Please, help him!” Seeing Ivan's movements, Gale cried and said, "Only you can save him, or Draco will be killed by those spiders...”

“We should hurry back and only the professors can save Draco.” Crabb rebutted, "Don't waste your time here, let's go. ”

“Those monsters can eat Draco in minutes.” Gore said unwillingly, "We can't leave, otherwise...”

“What else will happen?!” Crabb turns to Gore with uncovered ferocity, "I just want to get out of here now, and you're wasting your time. ”

“But Draco...”

“As I said, we're going back to the castle and notify the others to rescue him.” There's nothing we can do for him if we stay here, "Crabb said, adding trouble. ”

Gore was silent when he heard Krabs.

His silly eyes uncertainly looked at his companion and turned his head to look at Ivan, but he didn't get any response from Ivan.

He knows what that means, even if it's stupid.

It took a while for him to drool and say, "If Draco died, his father and Malfoy family wouldn't have let it go. ”

Mentioning Lucius Malfoys, even the Krabs were silent.

“I'm sure he'll understand us!” He whispered and raised the volume, "Besides, what can we do?! ”

Evan understood what they meant and deliberately told himself about the Malfoy family.

This is both a threat and a reminder.

Once Malfoys die here, then the three of them have to be prepared to face Lucius Malfoys' anger.

They're Malfoys' followers, they're his own people, so Lucius may not do anything to them, but Ivan can't say much, and Lucius is likely to piss him off.

Looks like Malfoy's two followers, especially Krabs, aren't as stupid as they look.

Ivan is naturally not afraid of Lucius, nor of Malfoy's revenge. This is Hogwarts, and with Dumbledore, he can't do anything.

Today's incident itself is Malfoy's own fault and has nothing to do with Ivan. But the conversation between Gore and Krabs made Ivan hesitate again, and he finally found something wrong, and he kept telling himself in his heart that giving up Malfoy and leaving here as soon as possible was the wisest option.

Obviously, that's what Crabbe thinks.

Is this really a wise choice to have the same attitude as a Slytherin who doesn't even have the most basic friends, but only takes into account his own safety?!

Yeah, it's not the same, the other guy's a nasty Malfoy.

A strange voice whispered in Evan's heart, "He's not even your friend. You certainly don't have to risk your life to save him."

But when Ivan thought so, he always felt something was wrong, and the discord was getting stronger. Didn't he risk his life to save Peter the dwarf?

The voice sounded again: it was just because you needed him to prove Sirius was innocent, and you didn't really want to save him.

Peter Pettigrew harnessed value, Malfoy did not, instead he was still a problem, and many things in the future were made worse by his presence.

He just died here, probably the best...

“No, it's not like that!” Evan suddenly shouted loudly.

Gore and Krabs looked at him in panic, wondering what was going on.

At this moment, Ivan struggles with voices deep in his heart. He finally figured out that the advice given by the voice seemed to be correct, but ignored the most important point, ignored human nature and viewed the issue only in terms of profit or loss.

What difference does it make to those dark wizards if he does what they say?!

Immersed in cold-blooded interests and powerful magic powers, dealing with anything requires only making wise choices that are best for you.

Ivan could have left Malfoy to die, because it was not only dangerous, it did him no good. Anything you want, you can do everything you want, because he has his reasons. Afraid of death, then you can deprive others of their inferior lives to make the Horcrux, so that you can live forever.

The choices seemed wise, but Ivan did not need them, and he had to resist and correct the wrong ideas.

Just as Ivan had this idea, the Slytherin pendant box that had been hanging on his chest suddenly flashed a dark golden light.

The curvy, text-like lines on it lit up at the same time, instantly reverting to the way they were before, as if nothing had happened.

But Ivan's original confused will was renewed, and a strange magic injected into him from the inside out.

Deep in his heart, suddenly a crisp sound sounded, like a broken glass landing, and the whispers of the echo disappeared.

Ivan held Buckbeak with his hands and breathed heavily.

Everything in front of him was clear and clear, and he felt sweat all over his back.

He had just realized that the strange voice that had just appeared in the depths of his heart was the one that had been whispering to him at the beginning.

It affects itself invisibly, hoping Ivan falls.

Only then can it devour his soul.
