Chapter 563: “Mysterious Wizard J”

Nothing is impossible, Severus, and you should be aware that the mysteries of magic are infinite. Ive only scratched the surface of them, Dumbledore remarked with an air of understanding.

Thus, its entirely possible for someone to surpass me in power. The world is never short of geniuses.

Dumbledore looked up, displaying no surprise at Snapes incredulity. But, its still unbelievable, Snape muttered.DiisCoover updated novels on n(o)v./e/lbin(.)com

The world, after all, was populated with geniuses.

He was a genius himself, yet Dumbledore stood as the most formidable genius in the world.

Headmaster, youve been investigating this for quite some time. Do you know who this wizard is? Snape inquired, aware of Dumbledores efforts to look into the New York wizard, which included a visit to the U.S. Ministry of Magic.

I have some leads, but Im not entirely certain. Ill need to arrange a meeting with him. However, its almost certain that he is the same individual as the wizard J who sealed Voldemorts soul, Dumbledore responded with a smile.

Snape paused, then nodded in understanding.

Upon deeper reflection, it did seem incredible that the mysterious wizard J managed to find and seal away all of Voldemorts soul fragments.

After all, both Voldemort and Dumbledore were regarded as wizards of the same caliber.

Dumbledore, too, was unable to defeat Voldemort, yet this enigmatic wizard emerged from obscurity to successfully seal Voldemorts soul, a feat which no one else could claim.

The prospect of a wizard surpassing Dumbledores power and accomplishing such a task was immensely unsettling.

The likelihood of two such wizards existing was remarkably slim.

Therefore, it seemed increasingly probable that these two wizards were, in fact, the same person.

Headmaster, now that you have a rough idea of this individuals identity, can you share who he is? Im genuinely curious, Snape inquired.

The thought of a wizard with the power to outmatch Dumbledore and completely seal away Voldemort intrigued him.

Upon closer examination, it seemed that Dumbledores deduction held merit.

While Jerry was only a fourth-year student with just three years of magical education, his accomplishments over this short period were indeed remarkable.

For instance, at the beginning of the previous school year, Jerry had easily vanquished a dozen Dementors and a dozen Aurors, demonstrating strength that exceeded the average Auror, even though Jerry had been studying magic for only two years at that time.

In the year since no one could determine the extent of his current power. Notably, Jerry had authored two books on magic, both containing spells of his own creation, reflecting a high level of theoretical expertise.

Although it was not certain at present, most wizards viewed Jerrys future as one that rivaled, if not surpassed, Dumbledores.

If a rational analysis were applied, Jerry indeed represented the most likely candidate for the elusive wizard J.

If Jerry is indeed Wizard J, what are your plans, Headmaster? Snape inquired, his expression serious.

Dumbledore responded with a smile, I dont intend to do anything, even if he is. There is, in fact, nothing wrong with him. He sealed Voldemort, alleviating the gravest concern in my heart, and he returned the Philosophers Stone. While some exaggeration may be involved, its characteristic of youth.

I called you here today simply to provide you with advance notice, so you are aware. Additionally, if all goes as planned, I will be announcing my retirement soon.

Dumbledores decision to retain his position as Hogwarts Headmaster at a relatively young age was never motivated by a desire for power.

If power were his objective, he would not have declined the opportunity to become Minister of Magic.

Instead, he recognized that the Voldemort crisis was far from resolved and harbored concerns that Voldemort might return in the future.

His aim was to help Harry, the prophesied child, grow into a formidable wizard capable of defeating Voldemort.

However, now that Voldemort had been completely sealed away, Dumbledore could retire with a clear conscience, eventually residing in Nurmengard for the rest of his days.

But before doing so, he had to engage in a substantial conversation with Jerry to address any lingering uncertainties.

Having everything laid out before him, Dumbledore reminisces the old days of him talking with a particular partner

Thinking about it, Jerry might even be stronger than they were, nor they will ever be.
