HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Chapter 291 After the Talk

After Dumbledore finished speaking, Gloria sneered: "After your sister was hurt, did you find the Muggle police to punish those people?"

Of course not. It was precisely because those children were still alive that his father wanted revenge.

Dumbledore said in a deep voice: "We should not be carried away by hatred. The Ministry of Magic has done a good job now. Once Tom's problem is resolved, the wizarding world should be able to enjoy long-term stability."

He turned to look at Gloria, "The magical world is always improving, and wars shouldn't happen again."

But she never intended to start a war.

"Have there been any casualties in Grindelwald's operations?" she asked.

Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief and said, "So far, no one has been injured. The French Ministry of Magic is doing its best to investigate and find as many clues as possible."

Gloria looked at his charred hand and asked, "Can you make it until summer vacation?"

The headmaster followed her gaze and looked at his hands, and said, "It should be possible. Severus has been preparing potions for me to sustain my life. I can at least hold on until summer.

"Once you die..." Gloria said, "that person will definitely take action."

Dumbledore showed a helpless expression on his face. "So I have to make the best arrangements before I die. With your help, I think all the Horcruxes can be destroyed. As long as the Horcruxes no longer exist, Tom will die. His soul can no longer withstand being split, otherwise it will destroy itself."

"What about Harry?" she asked. "When will we tell him the truth?"

Dumbledore was a little disappointed. "Try to wait until it's just him and Tom fighting. At least get the Hufflepuff Cup."

The atmosphere is depressing when these are mentioned.

He suddenly looked at Gloria and asked, "Do you think wizards can really rule Muggles? Both Grindelwald and Tom believe so."

"Why do we need to rule?" Gloria's expression was cold. "We are not from the same world at all. The war between wizards and Muggles is a meaningless sacrifice."

Dumbledore was thoughtful after hearing this, and after a while he said, "I have shown Harry some memories since the beginning of this school year, which will help him understand Tom better. He must follow the path paved by the lives of those who came before him to achieve the final victory."

Gloria knew that with this belief, Harry would be more calm when facing death.

"Just make the arrangements. I will be mainly responsible for destroying the Horcruxes." She said, "There is one thing I must say. That person seems to have given Crabbe and Goyle from our college a mission to find the crown Horcrux stored in the Room of Requirement."

She saw a flash of anger in Dumbledore's eyes.

Even though Crabbe and Goyle were not good students, they still went to Hogwarts.

Gloria asked, "I have caused some trouble for these two people recently, but I didn't expose them. After a long time without finding what I want, that person might realize something. Should I stop them directly?"

"No need." Dumbledore shook his head. "They are only sixteen or seventeen years old. Your father was about the same age at the time and does not know enough about many things. Besides, these two children have no choice. If they fail completely, Tom will definitely punish them."

Seeing that he cared about the students and mentioned his father, Gloria said, "I will remove those little troubles."

"We've talked so much without realizing it." Dumbledore checked the time. "Go back and rest."

Gloria looked at the lonely back of the old man, lowered her eyes and left the principal's office.

The office was quiet for a while.

Dumbledore sat down on the edge of the table and said, "Do you think Gloria will become a wizard who hates Muggles in the future?"

The portrait he was asking about was Phineas.

"I don't think so," said Phineas. "She's really different. She doesn't hate Muggles so much as she disregards them. Of course, you can't expect a Slytherin to be a Muggle-loving wizard."

The other headmaster portraits have opened their eyes.

"Dumbledore, does the New World really exist?" a portrait of a headmistress asked him.

"I'm afraid it's true." Dumbledore thought of Slytherin Manor. "It's magical, but it does exist."

Gloria ignored the Muggles, and it was a good thing that the wizards went to the New World and would not cause any war.

But he didn't expect that this girl would bring out Grindelwald, who had been imprisoned for more than fifty years, and it seemed that they had reached some kind of cooperation agreement.

But this point cannot be exposed. Grindelwald did not cause any harm, and Gloria's starting point was also for the magical world.

"This is a good thing. Gloria is right. Wizards and Muggles are from two different worlds."

"I really want to move my portrait to Slytherin Manor and see the new world."

The portraits chattered away, and Dumbledore sat at the table, thinking about something, until very late.

Gloria left the office and went straight to the secret room, where Draco was still waiting for her.

But when the door of the secret room opened, Zabini was seen sitting on the sofa, and Theodore was reading a book next to him.

Seeing her come in, Zabini pointed to the small room and said, "Draco is still in there."

Gloria ignored them for the moment, and after entering the room, Draco stood up.

"What's going on outside?" she asked.

These two people should be in the lounge, why are they here?

"It's Zabini," Draco said. "His mother knows several high-ranking officials in the Ministry of Magic in France. When she heard about the new world Grindelwald mentioned, she naturally thought of Slytherin Manor."

Gloria understood immediately, "So I came to find you."

"You found me temporarily." He said, "I didn't say it clearly. I'll wait for you to come back and decide."

Gloria said: "It doesn't matter. The people around me should know by now."

They walked out of the small room together, Zabini staring at them with burning eyes.

"It seems you guessed it." Gloria said as she sat down.

"So..." Zabini said tentatively: "You were the one who released Grindelwald."

Gloria nodded calmly, "It's me. He and I are partners."

Theodore stopped reading and focused on their conversation.

Zabini was a little excited and asked, "Is that world really safe?"

"Our family has lived here for more than a thousand years, so at least it seems to be fine for now." Gloria replied calmly, "The magic world is like a new territory, a new choice. I want to make new developments, and the magic world has the resources to support that development."

Muggles cannot defeat wizards alone, but the technological means of Muggle society are worth learning.

Wizards can use magic, so the direction of development is to improve their attack and defense methods. The combination of magic and technology will definitely have prospects.

Theodore asked, "Resources?"

A wizard's resources have always been his own magic, supplemented by spells, potions, and alchemy.

Gloria took out a magic gem and said, "This is a resource, not an ornamental gem. It contains magic power. It depends on how many uses we can find."
