Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

? "This...is this?"

Maca smashed Hermione's dung rock-no, if it were to be more accurate, he actually smashed open the "dung rock shell" that was wrapped around it.

But what was shown in front of everyone at this moment was a gem that fell in the middle of a table of black and yellow fragments.

Right now, under the light of many candles in the auditorium, the translucent gem was shining with a dark red that felt quite heavy.

"It's the Philosopher's Stone!"

Hermione finally, involuntarily called out the name of this gem.

At the beginning, when everyone was a first-year student, Harry, Ron, and Hermione had broken into the guardian level to protect the Sorcerer's Stone for various reasons.

On the way, Ron was unconscious and Harry was injured. Only Hermione stopped Harry at the last moment, who was trying to come forward, and walked into the last room.

Although after a battle of wits with Professor Quirrell, who was possessed by Voldemort, Hermione still failed to prevent Voldemort from obtaining the Philosopher's Stone, and even nearly sank to the cold water bottom and suffocated to death.

But there is no doubt that among all the people present, the only one who has seen the Sorcerer's Stone is Hermione except for Maca, who finally saved the situation with Dumbledore.

However, when Hermione said the name of this red gem and surprised everyone, Maca picked it up again and examined it carefully:

"Hermione, it's rare that you made a mistake...this is not a Philosopher's Stone."

"Isn't it?" Hermione said in doubt, "I saw clearly in the last level when I was in the first grade. This is exactly what I saw at the time of the Sorcerer's Stone? At that time, although there were two pieces of real and one fake, but They look exactly the same."

"Well, but," Maca raised his head, "Remember what Professor Dumbledore mentioned to us? After discussing it with Nicole LeMay, they destroyed the Philosopher's Stone-so This stone can no longer be called the "magic stone"."

As he said, he placed the dark red gem before his eyes and looked at it. The translucent red interior was full of extremely fine cracks and turbidity.

This legendary masterpiece of alchemy that connects matter and spirit has long lost its unique and wonderful amazing effects.

"Then," Ron tilted his head, hesitating, "Dumbledore gave Hermione the broken Philosopher's Stone for what?"

"I've been thinking about this problem since just now," Maca said, playing with the stone, "but I am afraid I won't understand it for a while... I only know that even if it is a broken Philosopher's Stone, It must be of high value."

After that, he put the damaged Philosopher's Stone casually, and the probe handed him the small glass bottle that Ron was halfway through but placed in the middle of the table for some reason.

Like Hermione's dung stone, there was also a thin silver chain on this small glass bottle.As far as Maca checked the results, the small amount of dust in the glass bottle was undoubtedly the embers left by Phoenix Fox after his rebirth.

But this time, Maca didn't find any abnormalities from above—it was just a pinch of ashes.

"Here," he handed the glass bottle back to Ron, and said casually, "Although I still haven't figured out Dumbledore's intentions, there is no harm in carrying it... remember to hang it around your neck!"

"Maca," Neville, who was still silent, suddenly curious after hearing Maca's words, "When you met Professor Dumbledore in the responsive room, didn't you ask him directly?"

Neville felt that with Maca's thoughtful thinking, he would have thought that he should ask him when he saw Dumbledore.

But Hermione, who also understood this, further remembered what Maca had said-he said that the time that "Dumbledore" could exist was actually very short.

However, neither of them knew what was going on in the responsive room at the time.

In fact, Maca lied.

...

"...The Sorting Hat was originally Godric Gryffindor's wizard hat, but later, it was endowed with wisdom for some reasons we don't know. We all know that it can distinguish people's thoughts. , And the reason it can do this is because it can still touch people’s hearts."

At the time in the responsive room, Dumbledore put the Sorting Hat on Harry's head while explaining to Maca who was standing on Harry's other side.

And after a little mention of the ability of the Sorting Hat, he immediately continued:

"So, when we put the Sorting Hat on Harry's head, it can help us continue to call Harry, so that he can get rid of the confusion that originated from the sword as much as possible."

Judging from Dumbledore’s statement, he does not have a deep understanding of rule runes.

Once upon a time, Dumbledore, like Maca, had been exposed to Rowena's test.But he didn't seem to be half-active and half-forced to continue like Maca, but chose to give up early.

After that, Dumbledore's magical journey gradually embarked on a different path.

After hearing him mention the so-called "sword-derived confusion", Maca knew that he was talking about an influence of the rules of the soul.

Just like the Bewitching Monument, the Devouring Mirror, and the cursed substance in the blood of the Blois family, when there is no restraint, it will cause a terrible disaster.

The Gryffindor sword being held by Harry at this time was actually the same in essence.

But at least, this "confusion" of the Gryffindor Sword is much easier to control than the influence of the other three sources of disaster.

It's a pity that this is just Maca's judgment alone-although he seems to have never had an object to discuss these matters.

"What I said just now is the first step to help Harry."

Dumbledore said, gently removing the hand that was pressing on Harry's head, and then continued:

"And in the second step, although it's a pity, I really can't help too much... Maca, take out your wand! Maybe only you can make Harry keep going. This last way."

"Oh?"

Maca didn't hesitate. Just as Dumbledore's words fell, he waved and took out his staff.

But after that, he spoke:

"Professor Dumbledore, what do you mean... Harry needs to rely on fighting to get rid of confusion and find his heart?"

The power of the Gryffindor sword comes from part of the soul's rules.Based on Maca's research so far, it is similar to the "arrogance" he currently understands. Perhaps what Harry needs to master is "anger."

Controllable anger can increase momentum and stimulate potential, but out-of-control anger can drive people into madness, and even tear everything in front of them.

Thinking about it this way, it might be a natural thing to fight Harry who is out of control and wait for him to find his heart.

But after Maca spoke his thoughts, Dumbledore shook his head silently.

"Indeed, this is one of the reasons, but it is not the main reason." He said, "I have to tell you that this room may actually be damaged."

In other words, Maca's mission was not to help Harry at all, but to prevent him from breaking through the barriers of the responsive room and rushing outside to cause harm to Hogwarts.

Speaking of it, if you just look at Harry’s past performances, even if he is out of control, he can only be regarded as an enhanced Muggle with an extremely sharp handle and extra power and speed. That's it.

As long as it is not defenseless, even if an ordinary wizard is attacked, it may not be impossible to get rid of it.

And this time, even Maca knew that if Harry got out of control, he would inevitably explode with much stronger power than before.

But if it can damage this responsive room... and not to mention the strength of the defensive magic of this room, its characteristics alone can support its continuous self-repair.

Maca, who had experimented with the rune of the cooling rule here many times, was so clear about this.

Maca didn't argue with Dumbledore, but clenched the staff in his hand again.Because he knew that Dumbledore could not be aimless.

Perhaps seeing the change in Maca's entire personality, Dumbledore on the opposite side also slightly nodded.

"Maca," he said with a kindly smile, as usual, "I don't know what trials and problems the four founders left for us younger generations, but I know that it will be an extremely difficult road. ."

"Back then, I was unable to continue from the beginning, but once in a while, I was inspired by you and selfishly left this school that accompanies me all my life."

"So, as of now, I can only serve as a'senior' and provide some trivial help for the path you choose to set foot on—"

Having said that, Dumbledore patted Harry on the shoulder, who was still immersed in the sword of Gryffindor, and then said solemnly to Maca:

"Lead Harry and the others to come to you! It's too difficult to rely on yourself!"

Dumbledore’s remarks are probably not just as a "senior", he is also a "comer" who is also on the magical journey to give Maca a heartfelt admonition.

To be honest, Dumbledore is not actually a very frank person, and he is always used to putting many things in his own heart.

But now, who is walking alone on the edge of death in that emptiness, will he regret his choice?

Judging from what Dumbledore is saying now, it is really not easy to jump to conclusions.

But Dumbledore's warning, can Maca accept it?
