Chapter 712 So I Can Be So Cruel
A meticulous plan doesn't have to be complicated, but it must be able to plug all loopholes.
Peter and Crouch respectively provided important information, coupled with various accidents, which made Voldemort's plan change again and again.
These changes also allowed possible loopholes to be erased bit by bit.
Even if Crouch's escape made William and Hermione guess that Barty Jr. was still alive, it didn't affect the progress of the whole plan.
So, a complex plan - a good executor is very important.
Barty Crouch Jr. is undoubtedly such an existence.
He's also a terrifying genius.
When I was in school, I got 12 OWL certificates, and my grades are more than just a top grade.
When he was arrested, he was not too old.In the past ten years, except for being imprisoned in Azkaban, most of them lived under his father's Imperius Curse.
After these years of wasting, his magic level is even much weaker than that year.
But whether it was the Quidditch World Cup last year or the last time they fought... William could clearly feel that Barty Jr. was stronger than many Aurors!
Also, Voldemort's original plan was to let Barty Jr. go to Hogwarts instead of Moody.
This was an activity under Dumbledore's nose, and he had to imitate a wizard that the headmaster was very familiar with.
Voldemort never underestimated Dumbledore's ability, but he still dared to let little Barty come... It can only show one thing:
He believed so much in the ability of his servant that Dumbledore would not notice him.
Is this something an ordinary Death Eater can do?
When William appeared in the cemetery, he heard Voldemort praise Barty Crouch Jr.'s abilities more than once.
A wizard that even Voldemort could appreciate...William felt more and more that if this little Barty continued to grow, he would be an extremely troublesome existence.
This son must not stay!
Just when William was thinking about how to kill little Barty after leaving the time loop instead of sending him to Azkaban, Dumbledore looked up and asked:
"William, is there anything else you don't understand?"
Since William has not left the time loop, it means that he has something unclear.
But William didn't ask questions immediately, but was silent for a moment, then raised his head, stared into Dumbledore's eyes, and said softly:
"Professor, Harry is Voldemort's... Horcrux, right?"
Dumbledore's lips trembled slightly, he squeezed the handle of the chair with both hands, and closed his eyes.
William didn't urge him either. For a while, the office was eerily quiet, and even Fox stopped singing his lament.
The centenarian old man slowly opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "When did you notice it?"
With Dumbledore's affirmation, although William was already mentally prepared, a trace of complicated emotions still surfaced.
He sighed slightly:
"In the year of the Chamber of Secrets, little Tom sacrificed his soul in order to obtain the strongest power after his resurrection.
Before the sacrifice, Harry 'voluntarily' signed a protection spell with Tom to bear the damage of soul destruction for him. "
Harry accepted the injury voluntarily, it had nothing to do with Tom, Lily's magic could not protect Harry from death...but he survived by accident.
That would be weird, unless someone died for him.
Looking at the black tea in the cup in front of him, William continued:
"Harry woke up and told me that he had dreamed that a baby had died and that another had appeared.
Since then, Harry has been able to dream repeatedly of my fight with Tom.
He can still see the scene of me killing Tom during the World Cup, and the scene of little Tom drinking the potion when he was looking for the Horcrux.
And his sight is not from a bystander, but from Tom's perspective. "
William paused and said softly:
"There's another piece of evidence... Harry is a Parseltongue.
This kind of magical talent depends on blood inheritance, but I checked, Harry's ancestor, although he was married to Iolance Peverell.
But she is not a Parseltongue herself, nor did she bring this talent to the Potter family. "
Iolance Peverell is the granddaughter of the third, Ignotus Peverell, among the three brothers.
It was also from that generation that the Potter family inherited the Invisibility Cloak, one of the Deathly Hallows.
The Potter family didn't inherit the Parseltongue from the Peverell family, and the son of Lily and James...couldn't have this ability anyway.
Unless Harry isn't James' son.
William said softly: "I've thought about it for a long time, and I can only think that Harry is also Tom's... Horcrux.
Otherwise there is no way to explain these things. "
Dumbledore took a deep breath, and his tall figure became a little stooped for a moment.
He looked up out of the window and said seriously:
"The night Voldemort tried to kill Harry, Lily put her life between them and the Killing Curse bounced off Voldemort.
A fragment of his soul was blown away and attached to the only living soul in the collapsed house.
A part of Voldemort, living in Harry, gave Harry the ability to talk to snakes and connect to Voldemort's mind. "
"William, the baby that Harry saw died, it was the soul that accidentally took the fatal blow for him." Dumbledore stared into William's eyes.
"But little Tom was rebounded by his own death curse, and like Voldemort, he split a piece of soul and entered Harry's body.
This will lead to a second baby.
Harry is not only Voldemort's Horcrux, but also Tom's Horcrux. "
William was also speechless.
At that time, besides Harry, there were William and Ron in the secret room.
But the shard still chose Harry.
Sure enough, people's bodies are different.
He asked again, "Then why does Harry's forehead hurt?"
Dumbledore said it before:
The scar hurt when Voldemort was near Harry, or when he felt a particularly strong desire for revenge.
But William knew that this was not the deepest reason.
"I also have a guess about this..." Dumbledore thought for a moment, and then explained: "Whenever the scar hurts, it's not because the scar itself hurts.
Actually soul fragments, seeking to reintegrate into the main soul.
When Voldemort was near Harry, or when he was particularly active, his desire to get back into Tom's body was heightened - the link was always there. "
William pondered for a long time, and asked another fatal question that he had thought about for a long time.
"Professor, since Harry is Tom's Horcrux, does that mean... Voldemort cannot die if he doesn't die?"
William and the others have been destroying Horcruxes in order to finally destroy Voldemort.
But Harry is also one of the Horcruxes, so if he does not die, Voldemort will live forever because of his survival.
This is a dead end.
Dumbledore turned his head, slightly avoiding William's sight, and said in a sad tone:
"You keep asking me why I was building Harry's courage instead of teaching him magic to fight Voldemort.
I protect him, train him, train him, let him develop courage... because I need Harry to have the courage...to die on his own initiative when the time is right. "
William looked up at Dumbledore.
"Is there no way to stop it? Harry must die?"
"It didn't happen before, Harry has always been a dead end, but now there is." Dumbledore's eyes flickered. "It was Voldemort himself who created this opportunity!"
Suddenly, William asked immediately, "Harry's blood?"
"That's right!" Dumbledore nodded slightly, "Voldemort took Harry's blood and used it to reshape a flesh and blood body!
Harry's blood flows in Voldemort's veins, they blend with each other, there is me in you, and you in me.
He wanted Lily's protection charm, and he wanted that power.
Of course he succeeded!
After he was resurrected, his hands could touch Harry's skin without injury or pain.
But Voldemort also made a fatal mistake. "
There was a gleam in Dumbledore's eyes.
"Lily's spell exists in both of them at the same time!
Voldemort's body made Lily's sacrificial talisman never die, and as long as that talisman was still in Voldemort's body, Harry would not be killed by him. "
William narrowed his eyes, thought carefully about Dumbledore's words, and quickly understood what the principal meant.
It turns out that Harry is a Horcrux, as long as he does not die, Voldemort will not die.
This is a one-way process.
Now because of the coexistence of spells, there will be another situation: as long as Voldemort is not dead, Harry will not be killed by Voldemort!
Well, there is also a chance for Harry to survive.
It is also the only chance.
That was Voldemort himself, killing Harry with a spell.
At that moment, logically speaking, both Harry and the soul fragment would die.
But because of the protection of the spell, Voldemort is still alive, and Harry will also survive.
It's just that the soul fragments have been broken.
This process cannot be replaced by others, only for Voldemort himself.
William looked up at Dumbledore.
The principal seemed to know what he was thinking, and explained:
"It's my guess, but my guesses are generally not far off."
"But in the cemetery, Harry died, Professor, not as you expected."
William raised his wand, drew a memory from his temple, and dropped it into the Pensieve.
The Pensieve has changed, showing the scene after Voldemort's resurrection.
Here's the scene after William hadn't interfered:
I saw that after Voldemort was resurrected, he forced Harry to duel with him.
But Harry didn't have a wand, his wand was with Krum.
Voldemort asked Malfoy to throw him a hand, and the two began to duel.
Harry was no match, the green light in Voldemort's wand flashed, and both of them fell into a coma at the same time.
After a short interval, Voldemort woke up, but Harry did not wake up.
Dumbledore looked at the Pensieve, groaned silently, tapped his hands and five fingers lightly, and said after a while:
"At that moment, he was in a world between life and death.
Either return to our world, or go straight to the next ride.
But Harry wasn't ready, his courage was far from enough, and he wasn't ready to die willingly.
Harry chose to escape, chose the next journey...the result can only be death. "
Neither of them spoke, and they sat silently for what seemed like a long time before William asked the last question:
"Professor, what if Harry hasn't been ready, after we've destroyed all the Horcruxes, he hasn't had the courage to die?"
Dumbledore bowed his head and mourned, "Then Harry's fate is...death."
The ring on William's thumb suddenly lights up, and the time loop is finally coming to an end.
When William was about to disappear, Dumbledore silently walked to the window and looked at the starry sky.
Keep Harry alive so that he can die in due time.
Dumbledore closed his eyes, their sockets moist.Lips quivered slightly.
"I don't know, so I can be so... cruel."

(Please recommend tickets, everyone.
Thanks to "a certain book friend A", "Daoist friend, please stay behind", the two big guys for their rewards.
Explain why Voldemort obviously used Harry's blood, Harry still has the possibility of dying, not necessarily living.
The Deathly Hallows - King's Cross Station, the final volume of the original book, makes it clear that Harry was hit by Voldemort's Killing Curse and both fell unconscious.
Harry appeared in the Twilight Zone - between life and death.Dumbledore shows up and tells Harry that he is not dead.
He can choose to return to reality and finally stop Voldemort, or board a train "forward".
To go forward is to die completely.Harry chose to go back.
So, Harry may not be able to live, it depends on his heart.
To put it more bluntly, it is courage. )
