Hogwarts Card System

Ted paused for a moment, giving the already trembling Lucius a little time to digest and relax.

"Mr. Malfoy, I don't know what magic can bring a remnant soul back to life, but I know it must be important."

"I can't prove who owned this diary before, but Voldemort must know."

After hearing Ted's words, Lucius shivered instantly. He thought of the most dire consequences.

"Voldemort isn't dead, at least not quite dead, as I'm sure you know. Just last year, I saw what he looked like without a nose."

"He's not dead, he'll come back eventually. What will he do if he finds out that the things he relies on for his regeneration have been thrown out and destroyed?"

Lucius' pupils trembled uncomfortably, and the sweat on his forehead was so clear under the light of the fire.

No one knows Voldemort's methods of punishing people better than him! He has seen it too many times!

Sometimes, it is better to die directly.

"And, he almost killed Draco..." Ted added another knife.

A man is fearful when his life is threatened, but brave when the lives of his family are threatened.

"No matter what, we don't want him back. Even if he does, we have to beat him, kill him for good. No one wants it again, not even a pure-blood family. Right?"

"Think about it, the last time he said that he wanted to make pure blood great again, the result? More than five pure blood families have lost their bloodlines, and more ancient families have declined irretrievably. Pure blood is just an excuse to hold together to protect interests, You should have seen it through."

Lucius spoke, but his voice became hoarse: "You, what do you want?"

Ted waved his hand: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to threaten you or scare you. I just analyzed the situation with you."

"Actually, we are on the same page when it comes to dealing with Voldemort. Except for those loyalists in Azkaban, no one wants him to come back to harm the wizarding world. Even if you are not on our side, we still want to fight Voldemort .”

"But we won't force you, but Voldemort will definitely. After all, in his eyes, Death Eaters are just useful tools that can be discarded at any time. Even Draco cannot escape the fate of being a tool."

Ted mentioned Draco again, and Lucius really couldn't hold back.

He definitely didn't want his only son to follow a moody, cruel psychopath.

He knew all too well what Voldemort was doing. He didn't want his son to go his own way.

God knows how ecstatic he was after escaping the trial of the Ministry of Magic - the terrible mad master is dead!

But now, not only does he want to come back, but he also destroys his "tool of rebirth", when the time comes... no! I'm afraid my whole family will be killed by him!

He might not directly kill himself with Avada, but let himself complete one by one difficult and impossible tasks, and then tortured and humiliated himself time and time again, and finally killed himself. He would even kill his family first to make himself miserable!

This is his style, and he will relieve his anger!

Lucius had a decision in his heart, his eyes became firm and fierce, and he was no longer the evasive, muddling old sly guy.

He lowered his voice: "Horcrux! This damn diary is his Horcrux!"

"Horcrux?" Ted pretended to be puzzled.

Lucius went on and on, not thinking about whether he should tell a 12-year-old wizard about this kind of evil black magic, or whether in his eyes, Ted might be more terrifying than the young Voldemort.

Lucius revealed the existence of Horcruxes, and he even speculated: "I think, Lord... Mysterious Man, Mysterious Man may have more than one Horcrux! No, with his personality, he must have more than one Horcrux!"

He murmured over there, "I've never heard of multiple Horcruxes", "Scary and damn madman", "I'm afraid of death to the extreme".

All kinds of negative emotions have driven Lucius into a neurotic state, and he can only relieve his tension and fear through such behaviors.

Voldemort's shadow was too deep in his heart. Now he was going to be an enemy of Voldemort, and he shuddered just thinking about it.

"Calm down, Mr. Lucius. I can understand your fear. After all, Voldemort's horror doesn't need to be emphasized any more. But fear can't solve the problem. Keep your spirits up."

"Besides, we didn't say what we want you to do..."

Lucius looked at Ted: "Then what should I do?"

"Do nothing and keep being Lucius Malfoy. If he doesn't come back to life, that's for the best, and nothing happened today. But if he comes back to life, you're going to be his trusted friend again." men."

Lucius panicked a little: "He never trusts anyone! Even me!"

"Of course, of course. I don't want you to be an undercover agent. I don't need you to pass any news, and I don't need you to fight Voldemort. I just want you to know that Voldemort is already your enemy. It was thrown out by you in the diary when."

"If the situation develops to the point where it is necessary, you will naturally have a choice, right? Today is just to communicate and reach a consensus."

"Okay, take Draco to the hospital quickly. He needs to recuperate. Oh, by the way, a kind request, can you transfer this house-elf to me?"

Lucius looked at Dobby who was lying straight on the ground: "He heard our conversation..."

Ted smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

According to Lucius, safety comes first.

But Ted won't do that, and Dobby has his own mission...

"Dumbledore, then we'll go back first." In the ward, Arthur Weasley and Aunt Molly said goodbye to Dumbledore.

Ron's condition has improved a lot. Although he is still a little thin and lacking energy, he is no longer seriously ill.

They are going back.

Dumbledore, with dilated pupils, came back to his senses and nodded again and again: "Well, don't worry, Ron won't be in danger if he stays in school..." After talking about it, he himself felt guilty. This injury was suffered at school.

But then, he thought of the Chamber of Secrets, the diary, Horcruxes, Lucius, Voldemort, Neville, and Ted!

He had been using magic to eavesdrop just now, and even peeked at the conversation between Ted and Lucius.

It weighed heavily on his heart.

My good student Tom really has a backhand, and he is still a horcrux, more than one horcrux. And Ted!

If Voldemort still has Neville, the boy who survived the prophecy, to deal with, what about Ted? What about this little wizard who can no longer hide his light?

Ted had let him eavesdrop on purpose, but after his mentality changed, he decided to be direct and stop playing tricks with the centenarian. Be straight with him.

...

Ted was back in the ward, and everyone else had gone.

Ted lay back on the hospital bed, finally able to relax for a while.

At this time, Ron poked his head out: "Ted?"

"Um."

"I, I... I'm sorry."

"It's okay, Voldemort is so cunning, it's normal to be fooled. Besides, you have already used your own sacrifice to atone for your sin."

After listening to Ted's words, Ron touched his butt subconsciously, and it was okay—it grew out. By the way... Slytherin ate my ass! I hate him!

Ron said: "No matter how big a mistake I made before, I have already paid off the debt with my ass. Right?!"

Ted nodded: "Yes, it's a write-off. A write-off, and no one is allowed to mention things that Senior Tom can't teach you again."

Ron: ...

Ted looked at Ron: "By the way, Ron, your wand was sacrificed for the school. I strongly recommend that you apply for a subsidy from Dumbledore."

"Can you?" Ron suddenly cheered up! The smile on his face could no longer be hidden.

"Don't worry, I will try my best to help you fight for it. The principal will agree!"

Right, Dumbledore?
