Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 1087 Dumbledore and Grindelwald

“It was my most painful day, and after Ariane fell, the three of us stopped to watch it incredibly.” Dumbledore said in a sad tone, "Then Greendward escaped, without hesitation, which anyone but me could have predicted. He disappeared, with his plan to fight for power, his plot to abuse Muggles, and his dreams of finding the sacred instrument of death on which I had encouraged and helped him. Ultimately, I stayed and buried my sister, learning to spend my days in guilt and grief, at the cost of my shame. ”

Greendward knew Dumbledore's feelings for Arianna, and he fled perhaps because of guilt or because he was afraid to take responsibility for the killings, but in short, he walked away and moved things in the worst possible direction.

If he stayed, the magic world would change...

“The change of heaven and earth!” Ivan repeats himself.

Speaking of, the magic world does need reform, but it should not be driven by ambitions like Grindelwald.

It should not be terrorists like Voldemort, and the terribly backward notion of pure blood glory should have long since been eliminated.

Dumbledore was originally the most suitable person, but he had no intention of doing so, he was afraid of rights, he was afraid of making mistakes, and he was too old, too much energy had been consumed to preserve the peace and stability of the magical world.

After Ariane's death, two wizards, who had fought together for the same goal, had embarked on two completely different paths.

Dumbledore lost his sister, paid a painful price and finally understood the meaning of love. At the same time, he voluntarily renounced the pursuit of rights, renounced the idea of reform and turned to preserving and refining the existing pattern.

Grindelwald, for its part, continues to follow its original philosophy, bringing terrible catastrophe and endless suffering to the world.

“Many years have passed since that day.” Dumbledore went on to say, "I heard rumors about him, and he was said to have got an incredibly powerful wand. At that time, the post of Minister of Magic was before me more than once, but more than once, and I refused, of course, because I already knew that power could not be handed over to me; my performance during my youth proved that power was my weakness, my temptation, and that if I had power, it would be a big mistake. ”

“Professor, you are much better than Fudge, and if you become Minister of Magic, you may lead the magic world to change.” Ivan stopped, adding, "Well, in a whole new way, it's not war, it's not like this...”

Ivan still has the point, no doubt, that with the rapid development of Muggles, the magic world really needs to change.

Societies are evolving, times are progressing, the status quo is maintained, and the magic world will recede, but the ambitions of Greendward and Voldemort, which are imbued with personal views, and the idea of waging war to conquer the world, are destined not to succeed, using gentle means, changing the traditional notions of wizards ideologically, abandoning backward traditions, and eventually achieving integration with the world of Muggles, are the right direction.

“Perhaps, but it is those who are best placed to take power who never drill, because only then will they not be lost in rights.” Dumbledore said, "Evan, you and Harry are both like this, and I think you'd do better if it were possible. ”

“I can't!” Ivan shook his head hastily and said, "I am not interested in rights, and I say Hermione is the most suitable candidate. ”

She's smart, doesn't crave rights, doesn't get lost, and knows what she needs.

It's a joke for many, just like the Elvish Protection Campaign she led, but liberating the Elvish, raising their rights, forming an organization and putting it into action is not something that the average person can do.

If Hermione were to become Minister of Magic, she would certainly make a whole new and better difference in the magic world.

Ivan firmly believes this, and he can help Hermione as well.

“Miss Granger is indeed brilliant, but she has a long way to go in order to assume the role of leader.” Dumbledore said, "But she also fits the point that there is no drilling power, and only such a person is best suited to power. And like me, staying away from the center of power would be safer in Hogwarts. I think I'm a good teacher...”

Ivan did not speak, and Dumbledore was indeed the best teacher and the best principal.

It is undeniable, however, that his desire for power remains strong.

Even after such a long time, he had not changed his weakness, and he was still a right-maker in the bones.

That was Ivan's assessment of the principal in first grade, and it still is.

Dumbledore will not tolerate people, things and factors beyond his control, and he will try to figure them out.

In his eyes, maybe he won't do anything to your detriment, but it feels bad.

And history has proven that for a wizard like Tom Riddle, that concern is either ineffective or counterproductive, and there is no way to stop him from falling one step at a time.

“In short, while I was busy training young wizards, Greendward assembled an army.” Dumbledore looks at Ivan, "which brings me back to the point where people say he's afraid of me, but I think I'm more afraid of him. ”

“I'm not afraid of his magic, I'm not afraid of his power, I know we're even, maybe I'm a little better. But I'm afraid of the truth. Evan, do you understand? I never knew who had sent the spell that killed my sister in that terrible mix-up. You'll probably say I'm a coward, and what I'm most afraid of from the bottom of my heart is knowing that I caused her death, not only because of my arrogance and stupidity, but also because I made that fatal blow to her. ”

“But...” Ivan said, "it could be Grindelwald, that's why he ran away! ”

“No, I think the reason he ran away was because I, he knew what I was afraid of, he knew me, he didn't want me to know the truth, he kept that secret in his heart forever, and he didn't say it until the end.” Dumbledore said, wiping his tears with his sleeves, "and I dragged him away like a coward until finally I was too ashamed not to show up. People are dying tragically, he seems unstoppable, I must do my best, at the time, I was the only one who could stop him..."

Evan implicitly thought a lot, but never knew the truth would be like this.

Is Dumbledore's speculation true?

Grindelwald fled because he was afraid to let him know the truth.

Think about it, these two are really...

Ivan doesn't know what vocabulary to use, but he can only say that they really know each other and are willing to think for each other.
