v2 Chapter 454： see [arrogance]

Faced with the question from the shadow, Dumbledore's expression did not change, his lake blue eyes were hidden under the lens, revealing a misty light against the backdrop of the night.

"The chaotic fluctuations of magical power, and the nature of magical power that I have never seen before—" Dumbledore reached out and scratched in the air, "I think I said from the beginning that the foundation of cooperation is mutual trust. ."

Sombra was silent for a while, then remained tough: "Dumbledore, you also understand that we are just cooperating, not digging hearts and hearts - you get what you want, and we get what we want."

"But there seems to be some conflict between what you want and what I want."

"Things are not what you guessed, and you should also know that the unbreakable oath not only binds you, but also binds the one."

"This doesn't sound very pleasant. I think I have already proved my sincerity, and some things can't be faked."

The shadow paused, and then said in a muffled voice: "I understand, I will go back to ask that person, and I promise to give you a satisfactory answer-now, can you tell me what happened here?"

Dumbledore spread his hands: "This question is also included in my question just now. I happened to pass by and felt the magic that was not right, but when I came here, this place has become like this - come up with This kind of movement still has that kind of strange magic, is it your people?"

Sombra nodded slowly: "It is indeed our man, and he is in charge of some work... Dumbledore, don't you find anything else?"

Facing the doubts that the other party didn't quite believe, Dumbledore smiled: "Frankly speaking, it's really not a pleasant thing to explain to you - if I did it, how would I deal with the unbreakable oath, if it was What did I do, why should I send you messages? If I had to hide everything, would you still be here now?"

Dumbledore's rhetorical question left Sombra speechless. He turned his head and looked at his companion a few times, all of whom saw the meaning in the other's eyes.

Since he has cooperated with Dumbledore, he has indeed done nothing that is detrimental to the returnees. Many returnees have also secretly guarded against this old man, but they have not discovered his tricks.

Moreover, it has to be admitted that they did a lot of arrangements without the knowledge of Dumbledore, and the cooperation between the two sides could not be known at all.

However, as long as that is there, as long as it is certain that Dumbledore will not join forces with Grindelwald, the status quo is acceptable - at least Dumbledore can't do anything by himself.

What's more, they have always been the dominant side in terms of cooperation.

Thinking of this, Sombra nodded to Dumbledore: "I see, Dumbledore, please don't misunderstand, we didn't mean to question you, but we do need to figure out some situations..."

Dumbledore was noncommittal, he took out his wand: "I hope our cooperation can go smoothly, and I hope that you can keep your promise."

"Of course, we don't have to be against the greatest wizard of all time, it's better to work together, and, Dumbledore, believe it or not, our purpose is essentially the same as yours, we're for, make the world a better place."

Dumbledore's glasses flickered, and he took one last deep look, nodded silently, and turned.

He disappeared in place.

Sombra and his companions looked at each other, and one of them said, "Normally, if Dumbledore did it, then he really didn't need to call us over. His strength is beyond doubt."

Another added: "But he happened to be passing by here? That doesn't make sense."

"This is not certain. Dumbledore's strength may be beyond our imagination. It is too easy for him to move fast."

"But if Dumbledore didn't do it, where would Thomas go? Don't forget, Thomas is not the first he... We have never heard of anyone who wants to take Thomas away without a sound. ?"

Sombra listened to the conversations of his companions, and finally said: "Dumbledore should not betray us, even if he wants to betray, he can't do it, he has become the complete opposite of Grindelwald... As for Thomas, this is no. Exactly, after all, there are quite a few old wizards living alone all year long..."

"But how could that unknown powerhouse suddenly come into contact with the magic left behind?"

"If you can't check it, you'll know. Send someone to check the anchor points. The unknown person will definitely take the anchor point away - and then follow the clues to check the people around."

"Yes--!"

...

"Ding Dong-"

The doorbell rang, and Mr. Parsons raised his head and hurried towards the door.

At this time, their family should have gone to bed long ago, but due to the arrival of Mr. Wallup, the family couldn't sleep. They were discussing in the living room about their son going to magic school in the future.

The sudden sound of the bell in the middle of the night reminded Mr. Parsons immediately of the wizard - is there anything Mr. Wallup has yet to explain?

Opening the door, what puzzled him was that an old man in a robe was standing in front of them.

"You are?"

The old man showed an apologetic expression: "Sorry, this is very unreasonable, but I promised Sean, and I will deal with it later."

"Sean? That Mr. Wallup? You know each other, and so do you?"

Mr. Parsons' words got stuck in his throat, and he felt his eyes soften, and then shook his head vigorously.

There was no one in front of the door.

"Dear, didn't you say that you forgot an umbrella at the door, why, didn't you find it?"

Parsons juggled his head suspiciously, then picked up the long umbrella that had been leaning against the door at some point.

"It's a little dark, I didn't find it for a while—"

He walked into the house and looked at his son: "Doug, don't read that prank letter, it's time to go to bed."

The little boy who was playing with a letter back and forth on the sofa was a little unwilling to say: "Maybe it's true..."

"It's a pity that this Durmstrang school is a fictitious one, and no one will come to your door—well, how about Dad buy you another set of your favorite fantasy novels?"

"But……"

The family was talking when the doorbell rang suddenly.

"Well, in the middle of the night, why are there still people coming?"

Mr. Parsons opened the door and saw a middle-aged man he didn't know.

"Sir, what are you doing..."

Mr. Parsons stopped talking, he was hit by a ray of light, and he looked at the person in front of him with lost eyes.

"Have strange people approached your door in the last few days?"

Mr. Parsons nodded.

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up: "Who?"

"You, it's already eleven o'clock at night, I've never seen you before..."

The man choked, he glanced gloomily at Parsons, and then asked, "Tell me everything you've seen these two days."

"yes, I……"

After a long time, Mr. Parsons closed the door and returned to the house. He shook his head and regained his clarity.

"Darling, didn't you say you forgot an umbrella at the door? Why did you go for so long?"

Parsons glanced at the umbrella in his hand with some confusion, and shrugged: "It's darker, and it took me a while to find it—hey, Doug, it's time for you to go to bed now."

Doug began fiddling with his letters again: "Maybe it's true?"

"If it's true, then I'll definitely send you to this school called Durmstrang, okay?"

"real?!"

"Sure, but now you should go to bed."

The lights in the bungalow gradually went out.

In the shadows not far away, several shadows were talking to the middle-aged man who had just appeared at the door of Mr. Parsons' house.

"The one named Parsons is okay?"

The middle-aged man shook his head: "No problem, although his son has received an admission letter from Durmstrang, no wizard has come to his door recently-I checked Durmstrang's admissions commissioner's action record, No one came here."

"No strange people were found in the surrounding households. There are some magical fluctuations in the home of Luo Yinde and his wife. I think it was left by that unknown powerhouse..."

A black shadow made an annoyed voice: "Why did you happen to be bumped into by that person..."

Another shadow said: "There are too many wizards living in the Muggle world, it is inevitable, and this is not the first time someone touched magic."

"But that person's strength is too strong, and the most important thing is that Thomas was taken away!"

"Don't worry, they can't study anything... Thomas, let's die, we have more important things to do."

"……I see."

The air twisted, and the night returned to calm.

...

At Hogwarts Castle, Sean, who was sent back by the door key, was in the Room of Requirement at this time, and the Lloyds were placed on two cushions by him.

"Strange..." Sean looked at his hand suspiciously.

The nature of his magical power that has been transformed is now slowly transforming back.

The magical change from the Black Hood "Taibo" is returning to its original state.

"Dumbledore knows this? Then he asked me to do it, on the one hand because he was shy because of the **** of the oath, on the other hand... just to let me feel the difference in this magic?"

"Because of the [arrogance] in my body? I have felt this magic in advance. Is it any good for me to deal with arrogance in the future?"

"However, the nature of this magic is so strange... Dumbledore doesn't seem to fully understand..."

"or……"

Sean felt that his magic power was about to return to normal, and suddenly a bold idea came up.

He came into contact with the magic power of [Lazy], and the nature of his magic power has also changed, but the [Arrogance] in his body did not respond...

What if he went to meet Arrogance in person? While the nature of the magic power has not fully returned to its original state.

Sean hesitated, then took out the unstable coin.

Unstable Coins (Purple): Divination props, throw a coin after saying specific things, the heads represent affirmation, and the tails represent negation. Remaining usage times 2/5

Sean used this coin three times, and only one was positive. The others were all standing upright. The effect was not obvious.

Thinking of this, Sean coughed lightly, and then said, "Won't it bring me any disadvantage if I go in and communicate with [Pride] now?"

Coin tossed, heads!

Positive means affirmation, that is to say, when Sean goes to see [Pride] at this time, there will be no bad situation!

Sean acted immediately, he summoned a full-length mirror, and then stared at the silent vortex in his eyes.

When he came back to his senses again, he was already standing on the familiar empty island.

Sean looked down for a moment, and he still maintained his attire in reality, including the wand and ring he brought in. Of course, Dave and other magical animals could not be embodied in his soul world.

Sean turned his head and looked at it. Compared with what he came here last time, the sky island has not changed much, and the villa belonging to the Wallop family in the center is safe and sound.

Sean didn't rush to find [Arrogance], he first went back to the villa that represented his soul to check carefully, and after making sure there was no problem, he walked towards the edge of the empty island.

He can now be sure that the soul world in which he and arrogance coexist is part of the blurred illusion.

Walking to the edge, Sean tried to give himself a far-sighted spell to look at the farthest distance, but his eyes were still red with magma, and he couldn't see any edge.

According to the fable, Mirage has been destroyed, but Sean doesn't know whether the magma is the status quo of Mirage, or the changes brought about by his arrogant existence in his soul world.

I don't know if I can ask something about this guy... Sean groaned silently in his heart.

He stuck his head out and looked at the magma.

"Hey, come out and see you?"

"Bo - wave -" The magma bubble shattered calmly, and the giant Sean didn't give any reaction.

"I was thinking of occupying my body, but now I can't pretend to talk to you, but it's alright..." Sean muttered, and then stretched out his wand.

"Boom-boom-"

The explosion spell burst open in the magma, causing a lava rain to fill the sky.

"Hey, big man, I'm your host anyway, come out and talk."

He deliberately used the last trace of guilt magic power that had not changed its nature Finally, there was movement.

The lava rolled up, dozens of times more terrifying than Sean's explosion spell.

A huge head slowly emerged from the lava, and the hot red liquid dripped from his eyebrows, and then his head rose to look at Sean on the edge of the sky island.

I felt like I was looking at a magnifying glass... Looking at the huge Sean who was exactly like him, Sean glanced at his mouth.

"Finally willing to come out? Feel it?"

The giant Sean stared at Sean quietly, his own negative emotions and violent breath made the air even hotter.

"Don't just watch it, I know you have intelligence, and you can communicate, don't you want to talk to me?"

After a while, a deafening sound resounded throughout the world.

"You, where did you get the power?"
