Chapter 24 The bar does not serve hot chocolate

(I did a little bit at the end of the previous chapter Modified)

A green box full of life slowly opened in the void, and a shining card jumped out.

【Bless the cursed bewitcher; after the last curse completely killed the victim and backlashed the use spell, this curse has fallen into a strange state, and a new round of cursed You've mixed up the names of the cursed objects again, and the curse has been thrown into complete confusion after a new cursed person has become the target of the curse.

Confusion (Passive): When the cursed object is greater than 2, the curse killing effect cannot take effect, and the other effects are greatly weakened. When the first cursed victim dies in the round, this card is destroyed. ]

The last sentence is unnecessary, right?
William pretended to be silent and opened the box immediately.

The result surprised him a bit - the last time the message of killing with a curse was nothing like what Dumbledore had told him.

The information he received before entering the school was that the most injured one was hospitalized for a year and a half.

The newly recruited professor will not be cursed to kill, and the curse received is greatly weakened. Both of these are good things, but he can't ignore the message of cursed and killed the victim.

p>

Pretending to be silent, he raised his head and casually moved towards Dumbledore and asked:

"Professor Dumbledore, I want to know who my last professor is, I still have a lot of things that are not Well understood, I want to ask him some questions with the owl - hopefully he won't mind. Also, if you can, can you tell me how that professor died last year?"

As a successor It was quite normal to consult a former professor, and the curse was a matter of life, he wanted to ask more clearly.

Although it wasn't obvious, Dumbledore's face changed and changed, and after being silent for a while, he finally responded to William:
"The professor from two years ago, when you get to Hogwarts. I will contact him later to see if he is willing to contact you...

As for last year, I originally planned to keep this matter a secret because it would cause panic in the entire magic society, but I think in the future , we will meet that person more and more, and I think, William, you will be our partner, and I can tell you all this, but you have to swear not to reveal it."

"Okay. Yes, I swear."

William held out his hand and aimed his wand at it—the refinement of some illegal potion on the black market often required oaths of varying degrees of secrecy.

The beams of pale-yellow flowed, and after an oath to pay up to three thousand Galleons, William waited for the answer he wanted.

"Your last professor was Professor Quirrell, unfortunately, he died in the middle of his term, but it wasn't because of a curse, but because he trusted the wrong person - he was The freer of the curse killed himself."

"The freer?"

"Yes, my former student, Voldemort, didn't hire him as Defense Against Annoyed at the Dark Arts professor, use spell cursed the position, and I have dabbled in dark magic, but I am not good at it, and this curse cannot be removed."

William looked at Teka [dark wizard Dumbledore] in the bag gave up interrupting.

"Wait, Professor Dumbledore, if I remember correctly, the Dark Lord was defeated ten years ago, how could he show up at Hogwarts and kill the last professor?"

>

"I said ten years ago that he would eventually return in a swirl of dust. He bewitched Professor Quirrell, used Professor Quirrell to infiltrate Hogwarts, was defeated, and killed Professor Quirrell."

William remembered the scene he had seen of Voldemort being reborn, and realized that maybe Hogwarts was far more dangerous than he had imagined.

The Dark Lord, whom Azkaban prisoners call you know who, did not plot against and revive himself secretly, but started to attack Hogwarts before he was resurrected, and finally succeeded in resurrection. Himself - if it wasn't for the curse, William would probably have fled abroad.

"There's only so much I can tell you at the moment. I'm just guessing a lot of things. I'm still looking for evidence to prove them. I don't want you to think we lied to you when you learn about him in the future."

Dumbledore said sincerely.

"I will, headmaster."

After sending Dumbledore away, William spent a rare long time in a daze.

No way, the message he just received was too big.

Come to think of it, he was just asking about the last Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, even if he wanted to say, is it necessary to be so trusting to one of his interim professors?
Despite the limitations of the oath, such unnecessary things were not worth the effort of Dumbledore.

If you are courteous to someone, you must ask for something.

According to what he knew from the prisoners and old Tom, Dumbledore did not have a granddaughter or granddaughter of the right age to marry, so the only possible use of him was what Dumbledore called. The return of you know who was predicted ten years ago.

This uninteresting guess made him hate the notes he made on the desk, but he quickly adjusted his mind.

He was sure to kill Voldemort now that he had been caught by that nasty curse.

Even if the new card hinted that the curse effect was weakened, he was still careful about the curse - weakened, what effect is weakened?
Will you be in a wheelchair in your next life?

Lost an arm or a leg forever by dark magic?

Lost an ear or eye?
I'm sorry, he was happy to use these organs, and he didn't plan to donate them just because a guy named you know who wanted to use them.

Thinking of this, he simply gave up the rest, turned the book to the page between the bookmarks, and prepared paper and pen to continue studying.

Killing Voldemort is not a serious matter. Although it is almost impossible to kill Voldemort by reading books, reading books can bring him closer and closer to that you know who.

Then, relying on the system, relying on the prophet who does not know when it will be fulfilled, and relying on the power of the first white wizard to kill the guy named Voldemort.

“dong dong dong.”

There was a knock on the door of the room.

"Come in, the door is unlocked." William moved towards the door angrily.

Don't ask, it must be old Tom.

Sure enough, the guy William wand was facing after the other party pushed the door was the old Tom who came for the fourth time - since he found out he was cursed, William's wand has always been pulled out at the first time. .

The table refreshments, hot chocolate, nuts, and a bunch of other things that shouldn't be in the bar were all brought over by old Tom just to see Dumbledore.

"Ah, Professor Dumbledore is gone?"

"Go, if he doesn't leave, he's afraid he'll endure. The bar can collect so many snacks, You're quite something."

"Snacks? I don't mention it, but I forgot. The rest is mine. Your cup of hot chocolate will be rewarded with ten scotch."

"There is no such food in the bar. That's from another family."

William rolled his eyes directly at him.
