Chapter 262 Solution
Chapter 262 Solution
Hearing Dumbledore's question, Gloria frowned slightly, "No one in my family is interested in owning a wand that is not loyal enough."
She said: "Compared to the strength of power, the Slytherin family is more obsessed with the creation of magic."
"It's a very good inheritance." Dumbledore had a new understanding of the Slytherin family. "The Elder Wand may indeed change its owner due to a failure of its master, but its power is undeniable."
"I know this. Although my ancestors had no interest in owning them, they did have a good understanding of the three sacred artifacts that were regarded as legends."
Dumbledore held onto the handle of the chair and sat down. "Tom and Harry's wands are twin wands, and they cannot kill each other. I believe he has discovered this, and he may change the wand to solve this problem later, but I don't think the possibility of a solution is high."
Gloria was curious, "Can't I just change one?"
"They have fought each other before, and Harry's wand even beat Tom's. I'm afraid a simple wand swap won't work." Dumbledore sighed. "I'm only worried that he will set his sights on the Elder Wand. Wizards who seek power will always know the legend of the Three Hallows."
He seemed to recall something. "They will try to get the strongest weapons to increase their chances of success in their quest."
Gloria blinked. Dumbledore must have gotten the wand from someone. Hearing this, she couldn't help but think of the person he defeated.
"You're going to destroy the Elder Wand?"
Dumbledore shook his head. "Although it won't always be loyal to me, we have worked together for so many years. I just hope that after its natural death, it won't belong to anyone."
If the Elder Wand were obtained by Voldemort, it is hard to say whether the bond between the twin wands would be effective.
He looked at Gloria, "If possible, can the Elder Wand be placed in Slytherin Manor? I know this manor is magical and people outside can't find it."
This was the best burial place he could think of for the Elder Wand after his death.
Gloria lowered her eyes and did not respond directly to this request. She asked, "How do we deal with Harry's remaining soul?"
Dumbledore was not in a hurry. "We are now at a rather interesting stage. Tom does not understand the power of love. He took Harry's blood last year to resurrect him. If he understood, he would never have stained himself with that blood."
Gloria was silent for two seconds before she said, "To be honest, my family is good at studying black magic. I don't really understand the magic you mentioned. Can you explain it more clearly?"
"It's an honor to have a Slytherin ask me questions about magic." Dumbledore smiled and put away his wand.
Gloria finally understood why their dean didn't like talking to the principal.
"You know the magic that's in Harry," he said.
Gloria nodded. "I know. It was because of the magic of love that Voldemort couldn't touch him, so he thought of taking his blood."
Harry had told her in detail how he had used simple skin contact to make Voldemort, who had possessed Quirrell, flee in his first year.
"Harry's mother, Lily, left him a sacrificial amulet before she died, but Tom chose to shed the same blood as him." Dumbledore seemed to sigh, "Perhaps this is the power of fate. Tom's fate is inadvertently more closely connected with Harry's, not only their thoughts can be connected, but also their lives."
"You mean..." Gloria said tentatively, "Voldemort and Harry, live and die together?"
"No, no, no—" Dumbledore waved his hands, "It hasn't come to that yet. Lily's spell is flowing through their bodies, but Harry can't die unless Tom dies. But if Tom dies, Harry will not be affected."
He sighed: "Only one can survive between the two. Harry will definitely win."
"So - you want Voldemort to kill that remnant soul himself." Gloria gradually understood, "He can't die because of the Horcrux, and Harry can survive because he is immortal."
She couldn't help laughing, "There is only one person in this world who can survive being hit by the Killing Curse twice."
Enzo knew what happened to Harry and had frowned once, angry that the spell he had invented throughout his life could not kill anyone.
"Yes, that's why I said that wanting to destroy Harry's remaining soul would be a great test for him."
Harry must die.
Gloria said, "You're worried about the Elder Wand becoming something unexpected."
"I'm worried that if Tom gets it, he will be even more powerful, and more people will die," said the old man, who didn't have much time left. "Once I die, he will act recklessly, and the Ministry of Magic will not be able to stop him."
That's why he wanted to put the Elder Wand in Slytherin Manor. Gloria suspected that he noticed the specialness of the manor when he first came.
"As for the Elder Wand, you should know how it changes owners," she said. "After all, you obtained it by defeating it."
Dumbledore sat up straight, his expression serious, "That's true, but passing it to Harry doesn't guarantee that no one can defeat Harry."
Once Harry is defeated, the Elder Wand will still change owners, and it will be impossible to control who gets it.
"I can help you keep the Elder Wand." Gloria said, "Before putting it here, it's best to change the owner of the Elder Wand to Harry, just in case."
Dumbledore thought about it and nodded.
"Thank you, Gloria. You are the one who can help Harry and the Order of the Phoenix the most after my death."
He had to admit that he had many concerns about this girl, but he had no doubt about Gloria's determination to deal with Voldemort.
An old man who had only a year left to live looked at her with eyes full of sincerity and gratitude.
Gloria marveled at Dumbledore's ability to persuade. If he had really cooperated with Grindelwald in the first place, it is hard to say what the situation of the wizarding world would be like today.
"As I promised at the beginning, I will destroy all of Voldemort's Horcruxes."
Dumbledore said, "I feel more relieved when you say that. The Death Eaters' activities have been exposed. I am worried that some students will be taken advantage of. Tom knows that I will not harm students."
Gloria simply looked out the window. "I can't keep an eye on those people all the time, and I don't want to use violence to control their behavior."
She continued, "Instead of worrying about these things, it is better to meet Professor Slughorn as soon as possible. The most important thing is to deal with the Horcruxes. No matter how much trouble the students cause, the scope of the impact will be limited to the school."
There are so many excellent professors in Hogwarts, even if those Slytherins want to do something big, they can be dealt with quickly.
"I came to see you today because I want to meet Horace." Dumbledore said, "In view of the recent attacks on senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, I decided to let Harry go to the Burrow first for safety reasons. I will take you to see him together. Horace knows Harry's mother."
After saying that, he stood up.
Gloria thought about it and asked, "Is there really no way to remove the curse?"
Dumbledore looked at his hands. "No, I have lived to an age where I can face my own death calmly. Death is another great adventure."
Suddenly he thought of his old friend, Nico Flamel, who voluntarily gave up immortality.
After death, you will be able to see the people you miss so much.
