Two heads suddenly appeared in the black lake not far from the lake shore. They were two mermaids who happened to come to the lake to get some air. They found Dumbledore standing on the shore. Come over and say hello, a biting and cold breath swept across the lake instantly, causing the two silent mermaids to freeze on the lake, neither daring to dive nor swim.
"Are Cacus Foley and his big family still alive?"
Amosta's eyes were cold and stern. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Dumbledore. With a gentle and thrifty appearance, at this moment, he turned into the famous golden viper in the underground world of Knockturn Alley
"Of course the Foley family is still alive, Amosta, In fact,"
Amosta, who was so close to him with his hands retracted into his sleeves, did not cause any change in Dumbledore's expression. He looked at Amosta gently. Star, his beard trembling, said,
"If you carefully read the issue of the Daily Prophet at the end of January, you will know that the Foley family is not only safe and sound, but they also have something worth celebrating. Mr. Cacus Foley's sister, Ms. Adele Foley, has become the head of the Department of Strange Bacteria and Infections at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. To be honest, I think she deserves the title, Adele Foley. When I was a student at Hogwarts, I dreamed of one day working as a therapist."
"That's enough, Headmaster Dumbledore,"
Amosta closed He closed his eyes and took a moment to adjust his slightly rapid breathing.
"It's amazing, it's really amazing. I've never considered this possibility for even a second. You actually have the ability to break the shackles of the Unbreakable Oath." "
"Magic must also follow rules, Amosta, you must understand this truth. The more powerful the spell, the more restricted it is by the rules," Dumbledore smiled lightly,
"The constraints of the Unbreakable Oath are guaranteed by the soul of the wizard. I am not as powerful as you think to break this contract."
"That's it"< /p>
Amosta still closed his eyes facing the black lake. No one knew that at this moment, all the color in his eyes had dissipated and his original brown pupils had returned. Dumbledore’s words made his eyebrows rise. Moved,
"You knew that Golden Viper was Amosta Blaine a long time ago, right? Where did you come from?"
"What do you think?"
Dumbledore did not deny this statement. He seemed to feel that holding the money bag was a bit silly and tiring, so he retracted his hand. From the beginning to the end, he never thought of taking out the wand.
"Ha"
The moment Amosta opened his eyes, the sudden strong wind from all around overwhelmed the trunks of a row of willow trees on the shore, and a small piece of lake in front of them Visibly shaken, the two frightened mermaids simply rolled their eyes, their feeble bodies rising and falling with the increasingly majestic waves
Amosta's brown eyes revealed the excitement. ice coldMore realistic than ever, the corners of his mouth were slightly tilted upward, and the unruly feeling lingering around him was something that even Dumbledore's all-embracing eyes could hardly contain.
"It's Remus Lupin, right?"
Amosta's voice was cold and stern,
"I only have him left among those werewolves. When he came down, he promised me that he would not reveal my true identity to anyone, so I let him go for a moment. Now it seems that I made a serious mistake."
Three years ago, That was when Amosta had not been active in the underground world for long. Because he completed a series of commissions neatly, he became famous in the underground world and accumulated some wealth. That day, he was in the trading market. To deal with some valuable antiques accidentally obtained during the commission, a group of greedy werewolves under Fenrir Greyback approached him.
That was the first time Amosta fought with others in the underground world. The battle was very fierce. Of course, seven or eight werewolves were nailed to the rock wall by Amosta and died. , they fought from underground to above ground, and finally, they fought to the death in front of the statue of Merlin in the small square at the entrance to the underground world.
The result of the battle was undoubtedly that Amosta won the final victory, but he also made a fatal mistake.
At that time, like most people in the underground world, he simply used a mask to cover his face, but did not use magic for comprehensive protection. Due to the fierce battle, his mask was destroyed. A werewolf tore it apart with his claws, accidentally revealing his true form.
All the werewolves who saw his face that day were basically bleeding on the spot, with only one exception, and that was Remus Lupin.
There are two reasons why Amosta let go of the haggard-looking werewolf. First, during the entire battle, Lupine, who was with the werewolves, did not release a spell on him. , just passively defending, he seemed to be forced by the group of werewolves to do these dirty deeds, and it was not out of his heart.
There was a werewolf who screamed miserably before he died, wailing out the name of Remus Lupin, hoping that Lupine could save it, and it was this wailing that made Amo... Starner's remaining vague memories surged, and he remembered that Remus Lupin seemed to be a very important plot character. In order to avoid triggering a catastrophic chain reaction, Amosta let him go.
If it were Amosta Blaine who was already quite thoughtful in his actions today, even if he chose to spare Remus Lupin again, he would definitely sign a contract with him like Cacus. An Unbreakable Vow, but at that time Amosta had just walked out of school and was free to move around in the darkness of the magical world for the first time. His experience was not rich enough, which left hidden dangers.
"This is a thankful mistake,"
Dumbledore nodded at him, his expression finally became solemn,
"If you I made the right choice that day, Amosta, and I'm afraid I can only sadly tell Severus that if he wants to see you, he will have to go to Azkaban."
"Do you think he is nobler than those werewolves, Dumbledore?"
Amosta sarcastically laughed at the inexplicable resemblance to Professor Snape, his eyes full of He asked mockingly,
"How many robberies did Remus Lupine and those werewolves do in private? Do you know, Dumbledore, if I should go to Azkaban, then He cannot escape the blame."
"That was not Remus' intention, Amosta,"
Dumbledore's voice weakened and he looked tired. "You and I both understand that the magical world we live in is full of prejudice and discrimination. Remus was originally a normal wizard like everyone else, but an unfortunate incident he encountered in his childhood He had to face this tragic and unfortunate fate
He needed to survive, but the werewolf code of conduct and the code of treatment of half-humans for non-wizards almost made it difficult for him to move forward in the magical world. Out of helplessness and threats, He got mixed up with Greyback and his werewolves, and like I said, Amosta, it wasn't Remus' intention, he always insisted on not hurting anyone, and his conscience was always full. "Suffering"
"So, Dumbledore," Amosta sneered, "is he innocent?"
The complexity and cruelty of reality and human nature are insurmountable. Mountain, even a powerful wizard like Dumbledore will feel powerless when facing this mountain. He cannot change the prejudices in people's hearts, because prejudices are also correct concepts derived from the basis of reality. Even if he is The same goes for being determined to overthrow the Ministry of Magic.
Looking at the silent Dumbledore, Amosta snorted softly. The wind subsided, and the gradually settling lake surface showed bottomless darkness like an abyss. Amosta stared at it. On the lake surface, it was as if he and the darkness had become one.
"Since this commission is issued by you, Principal Dumbledore,"
Finally, after a long silent confrontation, Amosta, who seemed to have regained his composure, said with waves He asked in a calm tone,
"What is your purpose of trying so hard to get me back to Hogwarts? I think it's definitely not just for teasing." Please remember to bookmark, the latest website The fastest and free reading without anti-theft
