Harry Potter’s Natural Villain Chapter 60: Cost
All the gifts given by fate have already been secretly marked with prices.
Malfoy thought of the sentence he had read.
Lockhart on the stage is proud of the spring breeze. It is clear that everything is due to him, but now he seems to be swaggering like a savior, which seems unfair.
But in fact this is very fair.
He has already paid a heavy price for this.
Because perhaps only Merlin now knows how long Lockhart will live.
Even in the world where magic exists, there are some laws that need to be obeyed, such as Gamp’s basic law of deformation. These laws are vaguely similar to some theorems discovered by physicists in Muggle society.
That is conservation.
The original Ginny could escape because of the destruction of the diary, which can be explained as the vitality deprived of the diary was returned to her.
Lockhart? Maybe he is not so lucky, because he may have overdrawn his future long ago.
Dumbledore, Voldemort and Grindelwald are among the people standing at the top of the pyramid in the magical world. There shouldn’t be any dispute about this. They are all “gods” in terms of mana and casting skills. Grade figures.
As for the second tier, some of the professors proficient in combat in Hogwarts should be counted. Even so, Snape can be counted as the leader. In the original story, he can be compared with Professor McGonagall. Slightly the upper hand in the battle, Flitwick can also retreat after joining the battle, the strength is definitely not to be underestimated.
So the question is, how much does Lockhart have to pay to defeat Snape in a formal duel? Even though Snape might have underestimated the enemy somewhat.
This question may only be answered by Merlin.
As a cult leader, Voldemort, even in his youth, mastering some black magic that overdrafts the life-enhancing power should be extraordinary.
Lockhart may also have to thank him for his talents to be considered upper-middle, otherwise perhaps he can no longer stand on the stage and boast of achievements that did not belong to him.
Time goes back not too long ago.
"Professor, I suggest you pay attention to Lockhart." Some hoarse and low voice came from Snape's mouth. A first-class wizard will not be arrogant or arrogant. Snape, who knew him soberly, didn't seem to care about winning or losing so much as the students seemed, even though Ron and Harry thought his face was scary after the defeat. He is more concerned about someone's abnormality and someone's safety than winning or losing.
So Snape suggested to Dumbledore after the duel club was over.
Clouds and mists still lingered in the office, silverware kept puffing out smoke, Dumbledore carefully tore a piece of candy packaging at the table, as if he hadn't noticed Snape's suggestion.
"Severus, please help an old man whose hands and feet are not so dexterous, such as tearing up the candy package for him." Dumbledore didn't lift his eyelids, and threw a piece of candy in front of him. To Snape.
This is really a clumsy way to change the subject.
"Da", the sugar fell on the ground. There was a slight bang on the floor, as if announcing Snape's protest.
Obviously, he did not follow.
"Oh, well, Severus." Dumbledore felt the anger rising from the people in front of him, even though he remained silent.
"You are too suspicious." Dumbledore slowly spit out such a sentence, the old and thick voice seemed to have the magic of calming mind.
"We don’t have any extra energy to care about the strength of a professor. As far as I know, Lockhart was also a man of the world when he was in school. Isn’t it normal for a good student to grow into a good teacher? "Dumbledore said to Snape with a smile.
"But..." Snape squeezed his wand tightly.
"I know what you want to say~ IndoMTL.com~ No matter how good a teacher is, I don’t think it can avoid accidents in class. After all, it was his first time in class, and it is inevitable that you are nervous." Dumbledore looked at Snape continued, "I don't think you can guarantee that Neville Longbottom will not make a mistake in class, right?"
"But..." Snape wanted to continue, but Dumbledore interrupted again.
"Professor Snape, my suggestion is that you'd better care about your potions. After the mandela grass matures, you will rely on you to make the potion." Dumbledore's tone became serious, and he looked even deeper. It seemed to think of the students who had been petrified.
"Very well, Mr. Principal, I think you will be satisfied."
Snape didn’t insist anymore, he raised his broad robe back, and walked out the door with great strides, but when his last foot was about to step outside, he still concealed in his cold tone With a trace of palpitating anger.
"It's just that I hope that next time you find the potion I configured, there is no word "resurrection" in it as a prefix."
After speaking, the door of the office closed silently and automatically, but in this calm, perhaps undercurrents were surging.
"Waste is not a behavior worth promoting."
Dumbledore sighed slightly, fumbled and picked up the fallen candy, dusting it off. Then I started looking for a place where I could tear the package easily.
"Stab." The package was torn open.
Different from the brainstorming situation just now, Dumbledore now seems comfortable.
I was pretending to be crazy and selling stupid just now, or I am using magic now. Perhaps only this old man knows about this~ IndoMTL.com~ Book friends are welcome to visit and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all in ~ IndoMTL .com~For mobile phone users, please go to read.
