Chapter 186 Ron: It's all even!
Ted paused for a moment, giving Lucius, who was already trembling, some 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 is not dead, at least not dead, I think you must know. Just last year, I saw with my own eyes 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 rebirth 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.
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 be mixed up with a moody and cruel psychopath.
He knew all too well what Voldemort had done. He didn't want his son to go his own way.
God knows how ecstatic he was after escaping from the Ministry of Magic's trial—the terrible mad master is dead!
But now, not only does he want to come back, 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 the difficult and impossible tasks one after another, and then tortured and humiliated himself again and 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 began to be firm and fierce, and he was no longer the evasive, muddle-headed old man.
He lowered his voice: "Horcrux! This **** diary is his Horcrux!"
"Horcrux?" Ted pretended to be puzzled.
Lucius kept going on and on, not thinking about whether he should tell a 12-year-old wizard about this kind of evil black magic, or 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 character, he must have more than one Horcrux!"
He murmured over there, "I've never heard of plural Horcruxes", "Scary and **** lunatic", "Afraid of death to the extreme".
All kinds of negative emotions have driven Lucius into a nervous state, and he can only relieve his tension and fear through such behaviors.
Voldemort's shadow in his heart was too deep. 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 anymore. But fear can't solve the problem. Get up."
"Besides, we didn't say what we want you to 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 others! 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, I have 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, Dobby has his own mission...
"Dumbledore, let's 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 not energetic, he is no longer in serious trouble.
They're 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 speaking, he himself felt guilty. This injury was suffered at school.
But immediately, he thought of the Chamber of Secrets, the diary, Horcruxes, Lucius, Voldemort, Neville, and Ted!
Just now he has been using magic to eavesdrop, and even peek at the conversation between Ted and Lucius.
It weighed heavily on his heart.
My good student Tom really still 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 let him eavesdrop on purpose, but after he changed his mentality, he decided to be direct, not to play tricks with the centenarian. Be straight with him.
…
Ted returned to the ward, and everyone else had left.
Ted lay down on the hospital bed, finally able to relax for a while.
At this moment, Ron poked his head out: "Ted?"
"Um."
"I, I was... 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 **** 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, write it off. Write it 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?
