Spotted By Grindelwald And Went To Hogwarts Chapter 567: The mystery left by Dumbledore
,!
Hogsmeade is much more lively than before, and there is a lot of traffic on the originally sparse stone road.
It's just that the bustle is just an appearance, there are just too many people-the town is filled with a heavy atmosphere, people stand in twos and threes on the corner of the street, they are all wearing black formal clothes, talking in a low voice from time to time.
Hogsmeade couldn't find a vacant bed, and the owners of various shops contributed a lot of rooms they lived in. Even so, many people came here ahead of time. They set up tents in the area marked by Hogwarts, just to wait for today's funeral early.
Grindelwald's arrival made the funeral near the end a little earlier. People were talking on street corners about why the president of the International Federation of Wizards did this.
Dumbledore's sudden death cast a shadow over the entire wizarding world.
Sean quickly came to Hogsmeade. Along the way, he met many familiar wizards. He greeted him hastily and went straight to his destination - the Pig's Head Tavern.
The tavern was still dirty and dilapidated standing on the alleyway. When the door was opened, a large cloud of dust rushed in. However, the tavern was full of wizards, and there were quite a few older-looking people who were shutting down glasses of wine, their faces flushed.
The person behind the bar is not Aberforth, but Nagini. Now she is well under control of the blood curse and can basically live a normal life.
"Nagini, where are Aberforth and Orriel?" Sean asked hastily as he didn't have time to be polite.
Nagini's face also looked very sad. After seeing Sean, she shook her head: "Just now Mr. Grindelwald suddenly appeared and asked everyone to leave. Aberforth looked very unhappy——"
She lowered her voice a bit: "Aberforth even took out his wand... But Orri stopped him. After returning to the tavern, the two argued for a while. I don't know what they said, but after the argument, the two seemed to have no problem, and they said they would go to see Ariana."
Arianna? Sean's child hole suddenly shrank.
Dumbledore admitted to him personally that Ariana did not die in the accident in Godric's Hollow. In order to save his sister, Dumbledore borrowed the resurrection stone from Nicole Flamel and tried the forbidden human body refining.
Sean remembered another person, another person he always remembered, but never appeared and almost never mentioned, no, to be precise, it was "two" people...
Dumbledore's human body alchemy was successful, and the human body was indeed refined.
However, Arianna's soul did not enter the body of the alchemy body, and Dumbledore's "transplant" of the soul failed-and after that, Phoenix took the initiative to accommodate part of Ariana's soul in order to save Ariana's soul that was about to be completely torn apart.
And the alchemy human body began to slowly give birth to a new soul just like those recorded in the alchemist's death manual - the new soul was often distorted and incomplete, which would cause a terrifying new monster to appear in the world.
However, Ariana's remaining soul merged with the newly born soul, and the monster was not born.
Essentially speaking, Arianna's body should be fused with the phoenix, and the new alchemy body is a brand new existence with some of Arianna's soul characteristics.
It is this brand new child who is separated from Dumbledore.
Dumbledore never mentioned that child again, and Sean thought that the child was later Credence, who is now Aurelius Dumbledore, but Orri is Aberforth's child, which has been confirmed.
So, what about the kid?
Arianna must be one with Fox now, I don't know where it is, Aberforth should know this... Then who is the Arianna he went to visit?
Sean took a deep breath, and he got closer: "Nagini, are they going to visit Arianna?!"
Nagini nodded: "That's what Aberforth said, Orri looked shocked, as if he didn't know such an aunt existed."
"Where did they go?"
"I didn't ask." Nagini shook his head.
Shawn frowned, and then asked again: "Did Aberforth visit Ariana before this?"
The answer to this question is very important. If Aberforth behaved like this after Dumbledore died, then it would be too coincidental.
Nagini nodded after thinking for a while, then shook his head: "I'm not sure... because it would be nice if I had a place to live. I never asked about their family affairs... However, Aberforth seldom left the Pig's Head Tavern before this, and when he did, he always came back with purchased supplies. Arianna, I didn't know she existed until they said it."
"Oh, yes——" Nagini seemed to think of something again, "At the scene of the last match of the Goblet of Fire, after the attack, when we were discussing whether to enter the maze directly, Aberforth said a word."
"He said that Dumbledore told him a few days ago that he was going to bring Ariana back..." Speaking of this, Nagini showed obvious doubts on his face, "I thought Ariana was caught, or fell seriously ill, or was in a state of being invisible like me... because no one else seemed to know that the Dumbledore family had a younger sister. But after that, Aberforth never said anything about Ariana."
Dumbledore is going to bring Ariana back?
Sean was lost in thought.
Arianna's main soul should still be in Phoenix's body, but Phoenix has been missing for a long time... I always thought that Phoenix might be controlled by the Returner, but now it seems that's not the case...
The key is where Aberforth went, and whether the Arianna he visited was his real sister...
Where will I go...
Having said goodbye to Nagini, Sean thought for a while, then found an empty corner and flickered to the periphery of Hogwarts, and then directly Apparated to Godric's Hollow.
"It's all restored..." Sean sighed as he appeared in the dark alley of Godric's Hollow Town.
It was completely destroyed, but now it has been restored. When Grindelwald fused here, he got rid of the Muggles who lived here in advance. Now, they have returned to their original home, not aware of it at all.
Sean sighed again, then cast a disillusionment spell on himself, and headed towards Dumbledore's old house.
When he came to a familiar location, Sean didn't see any dilapidated old houses, only a piece of wasteland.
The entire Godric's Hollow has been restored, but the old house here still remains as it was destroyed.
Sean went around in a circle, but found no hidden magic.
After thinking for a while, he walked towards the church in the small town of Godric's Hollow.
The small church here is often rumored to be haunted, but Sean knows that this is because many ancient wizard families are buried here.
There is a cemetery behind the church, and Sean easily sees through the magic. There is a narrow door at the entrance, and rows of tombstones stand on a light blue silver carpet.
Searching carefully in the past, he did not find Aberforth and Aurelius, but Xiao En saw a tomb instead.
The epitaph above reads: Where the treasure is, so is the heart.
The name of the owner of the tomb is written on the top of the cursive characters.
Kandra Dumbledore and Ariana Dumbledore.
Kandra was the mother of the three siblings, who was killed out of control by Ariana, who became the Obscure, and the father of the three siblings entered Azkaban before that, because he punished the Muggles who raped his daughter, and finally died of old age in prison.
This is the pain of the entire Dumbledore family's life, and it is also the most difficult thing for Dumbledore himself.
However, Arianna should not be dead...why is there a grave here...
If it was someone else's tomb, Sean might say sorry, open it to check the situation and restore it, but Dumbledore's mother is lying here, Sean can't do this kind of thing.
He leaned over to look carefully for a while, and found something strange.
Although Ariana's name is as old as her own mother's, under Sean's keen sense, a wave of magic power that is about to dissipate is around.
Is this name added at the end and made old on purpose? An idea came to Sean's mind.
He is now almost certain that Ariana is indeed back!
However, something may be wrong with Ariana, and Alfred wants to hide it to protect his sister - just like he and his brother did when they were young.
In this way, Arianna did reappear after Dumbledore's death...
Is it Phoenix, or the lost child?
Sean can't be sure, and he doesn't know where Aberforth went, but he can wait for Aberforth to come back and ask about it... Given his relationship with the Dumbledore family, Aberforth should not hide it from himself.
Moreover, this may have something to do with the mystery left by Dumbledore...
Back to Hogwarts, Sean went to the headmaster's office non-stop. The purpose of Grindelwald's asking him to do this was obvious - to look at the painting.
Now, the headmaster of Hogwarts has become Professor McGonagall. However, this stern lady did not move into the headmaster's office, but worked in her original office. She did nothing except re-arrange the password for the office.
Of course Sean knows the password.
"Albus Dumbledore."
The gargoyle jumped aside silently, and after Sean walked into the entrance, he muttered to himself: "I still prefer to listen to you guess the dessert for half an hour in front of me..."
Sean paused, then quickly walked up the spiral staircase.
Nothing has changed here, exactly as Sean has seen it before: the silver instrument is buzzing and whirling and puffing smoke on the thin-legged table, the Sorting Hat is still on the shelf behind the table, and the phoenix's perch is still empty.
He immediately looked towards the wall.
A new portrait has joined the ranks of the late Headmasters of Hogwarts House... Dumbledore sleeps in a gold frame above the table, half-moon spectacles perched on his hooked nose, looking serene and serene.
Shawn felt his heart ache again.
However, there may be new hope...
He took a deep breath and came to Dumbledore's portrait to look carefully.
The old man closed his eyes in the painting, as if he was sleeping.
"Professor? Professor?" Sean tried to call twice, but got no response.
Besides, the other principals didn't speak, they just watched Xiao En's movements.
"Professor?" Sean was still shouting.
Phoenix seemed to be unable to stand it any longer. He arched his body and muttered in dissatisfaction: "Stop shouting, kid, it sounds annoying."
Sean turned his head and looked over, and asked seriously: "Gentlemen and ladies, the principal's portrait is magical, and it also contains some memories of his life, so Professor Dumbledore should be able to communicate with me? Does this mean..."
Predecessor, no, former former principal Armando Dippet pushed his glasses and said with a sigh: "It takes a long time to go to the real other world... I can only start streaming after the portraits are moved in four or five years."
Speaking, he sighed again: "However, there is no way to turn back on this road."
Shawn's heart turned cold, but he still didn't give up: "But painting is just painting, right?"
Dai Lisi Devante, who has always been friendly to Sean, frowned and said: "A painting is just a painting, but Dumbledore's death cannot be changed..."
"No, ma'am, I just want to ask if Professor Dumbledore has really joined your ranks. You are all painters, so you should have a feeling."
The principals looked at each other, and Phoenix blew on his beard: "We are part of Hogwarts, providing help to the current principal! But we have no soul, no consciousness, this is not something we can sense, and we don't know the secrets of Hogwarts-forget it, people are gone, there is nothing to hide...Dumbledore has already made plans, he will sacrifice himself..."
Sean raised his throat with difficulty: "Then who can I ask to confirm this?"
"Find someone who can see everything in Hogwarts clearly! But what else does your confirmation make you more sad, and then accept the fact that Dumbledore is dead?" Phoenix seemed very dissatisfied with Sean's appearance at this time, and he had a kind of grief and indignation that Dumbledore died in vain.
But Sean directly ignored the second half of his sentence, and only heard the previous sentence "Find someone who can see everything in Hogwarts~IndoMTL.com~ Who can see Hogwarts clearly and know the secrets of Hogwarts...
Professor McGonagall? No, she'll tell me when she senses something is wrong... house-elf? Not right...Peves and the ghosts? But they also only have memories...
Am I going to grasp all the authority of Hogwarts? But I only found the ones of Ravenclaw and Slytherin, and the secret locations of the other two founders still need to be found...
Sean wandered aimlessly around the office, and then his eyes stopped on one thing.
The sorting hat.
If I remember correctly, in the first grade, the Sorting Hat reluctantly left him a promise to tell him a secret in the castle because of a leak.
However, Sean has been busy studying, fighting, and taking risks, so he never found the Sorting Hat.
Sean's eyes brightened immediately—this guy has stayed in Hogwarts Castle for thousands of years, so he must know something, right?
He immediately went over and picked up the battered peaked hat.
