Chapter 498： Truth and false appearance【34/39】

Chapter 498

A figure emerged from the inside, wrapped around the shawl, her eyes looked extra-large behind the glasses, she slowly rotated, her feet floating in the meditation basin.

George recognized the person inside. Although he had never attended her class, he also knew that she was Professor Trelawney in the prophecy class.

Professor Trelawney said in a harsh, hoarse voice, "A man with the power to conquer the Dark Lord has approached...born in a family that has defeated the Dark Lord three times...born in the seventh month... …The Dark Lord marked him as his rival."

"But he has the energy that the black touch does not understand... One must die in the other hand, because two people cannot both live, only one survives... The one who has the energy to conquer the dark head will be the seventh Born at the end of the month..."

Professor Trelawney was immersed in the silver ball below and disappeared.

"Oh, this is the prophecy." George replied noncommittal, and did not continue to speak.

"Well, there is no truth without trust." Dumbledore said helplessly, "I can only say that this memory was not forged by me, and others have heard this prophecy. Sybil's prophecy was not my intention. made."

George said lightly, "It's still hard to imagine that you and a powerful wizard like Voldemort will pin everything on a baby because of a nonsense prophecy."

To be honest, since Voldemort said in the maze, everything was Dumbledore's conspiracy. Compared to prophecies, George was more willing to believe that everything was Dumbledore's calculations, a subtle and admirable strategy.

After all, whether it is from his own experience or the history of the magic world he knows, predictions are very unreliable.

Even if Dumbledore revealed his memory just now, he didn't think it was convincing, just like Lockhart could manipulate the memory of others.

Compared to Lockhart, his ability to forge memories is still higher than Lockhart. As long as he wants, he can also control Trelawney and create a prediction that no one knows.

No one can tell this kind of forged prophecy except himself. Even Trelawney would only think that this was a real prediction made by herself, and could not tell whether her memory came from herself or was modified.

"I know this looks strange, but the situation at the time confuses everyone. The battle has been going on for more than ten years, Voldemort has been unable to defeat, and I have been unable to defeat Voldemort. We have been fighting for too long. Tired, tired."

Dumbledore recalled his memories and said sighfully, "A prophecy that suddenly appeared, a prophecy that suddenly broke the deadlock, made each of us crazy. Sometimes I can't tell whether the prophecy caused the future. Change, or change led to the realization of the prophecy."

"I also know that most of the predictions are deceptive, and I also know some of the methods of prediction, but that prediction is very unusual."

Dumbledore’s eyes drifted into his own memories, “The man who had only one chance to conquer the Demon forever was born at the end of July nearly fifteen years ago. The boy’s parents have defeated Voldemort three times.”

"Sybil's prophecy can be applied to two wizard boys. They were both born at the end of July that year. Their parents were in the Order of the Phoenix, and they both escaped from Voldemort's hands three times. One is Harry Potter, and the other is Neville Longbottom."

"After this, as predicted, Voldemort marked his rival. He left the scar on Harry’s forehead that was both a blessing and a curse. Part of his power and part of his soul entered Harry. Inside."

Dumbledore looked at George with a weird look again, and said, "Although from now on, it is you, not Harry, who can defeat Voldemort in the end."

George smiled lightly and said flatly, "So it is still a nonsense prophecy after all."

Dumbledore said quietly, "But at the time, that was our only chance. Although we have been resisting Voldemort, his power will continue to increase with the killing and destruction, and I gradually become old."

"Unlike people think, Voldemort is not afraid of me. Even at the time, I was not sure to defeat Voldemort completely. I am not afraid of death, but I am worried about the world after death."

Dumbledore said with emotion, "Our victory came by a fluke. The Pig's Head Bar has always been known for its low prices. This bar is by no means a safe place where you can count on your conversations from being overheard."

"Also, when I set out to meet Sybil Trelawney, I never dreamed that I would hear something very valuable Voldemort’s spies were also at the Hog’s Head. It was the eavesdropper who heard only a small part of the prophecy and was discovered, and then he was thrown out of the bar."

"And it was this fortune that prevented Voldemort from hearing the most critical part of the prophecy. Voldemort didn't know that attacking Harry was very dangerous. He marked Harry as his opponent and killed himself."

George sighed and said, "It is indeed a fluke. It is better to say that Voldemort was defeated by the prophecy. If he is more cautious, he should not believe in the prophecies in the unknown, let alone. When facing the wizard, he took it lightly, and was killed by the curse of the same death."

As for the truth of the matter, he didn't want to go into the details, and no one knew the situation at that time. It may be a coincidence, it may be a prophecy, or it may be a conspiracy. But what's the matter? For people at the time, more than a decade of war was too long. Everyone is tired and tired.

A prophecy that suddenly appeared, a prophecy that suddenly broke the deadlock, made everyone crazy. In the end, no one can tell whether the prophecy caused the subsequent changes or the change that led to the realization of the prophecy.

At the time, that was indeed the only opportunity for wizards. Dumbledore could not defeat Voldemort after all.

Just like Dumbledore said, that is the only choice for wizards. Voldemort's power will continue to increase with the killing and destruction, and he has gradually begun to grow old. Other people in the magical world have done nothing, and when all the burdens are on him, they regard him as the only savior.

Everyone was saying that Dumbledore was the only person Voldemort was afraid of. But only Dumbledore knew that he was old, and he didn't even dare to face Voldemort, because he could not lose at all, and the magic world could not.
