- Chapter 105: Turning over the table and selling out Voldemort
When Dumbledore left Nurmengard, he left with a roll of parchment.
The parchment is the peace treaty contract signed by the two people under the witness of Grindelwald.
“Mr. McGregor, thank you.”
Dumbledore has disappeared from Gordo Town for a long time, and Grindelwald’s eyes have not left the window overlooking the entire town.
Gretel was surprised by the sudden thank you. In his memory, Grindelwald had never been so pretentious.
But Gretel didn’t have time to stay and listen to his sadness. These two old guys, who hadn’t seen each other for decades, just knew how to talk about family affairs.
One says you are old, the other says you are too.
This means that I can’t eat cold food now. Once I eat it, I feel uncomfortable all night long.
The other one said, don’t be so showy, don’t eat cold food, eat more hot food before going to bed.
…
Anyway, it sounded like Grete was the older of the two, so he thought he would hear some exciting news, but who knew that the two of them were just chatting casually.
It’s like a nursing home for Muggles. This one is too cool to chat with, and that one is more dressed up.
There was no tense situation, no burying the hatchet, and no talk of the duel decades ago.
It was as if nothing had happened. The two of them were like old friends who hadn’t seen each other for decades. They took care of each other’s health and looked forward to the future casually.
However, fortunately, the two of them knew that they had something serious to talk about today and did not keep Gretel waiting too long.
It took about half an hour before Gretel and Dumbledore sat down at the negotiating table.
As a witness, Grindelwald did not speak during the whole process, only Dumbledore and Gretel engaged in verbal negotiations.
At first, Dumbledore thought that Gretel was trying to take advantage of him and threaten him to give in by cooperating with Voldemort.
His expression was very serious and his eyes were slightly narrowed, like a tiger in the jungle, crouching and waiting for an opportunity to devour someone.
But after Gretel spoke, Dumbledore’s serious expression melted away instantly.
Because Gretel sold Voldemort right away.
“Voldemort has seven Horcruxes, and I have destroyed two of them now. One was brought into Hogwarts by Ginny Weasley, Tom Riddle’s Notebook, and Rowena Ravenclaw. of crown.
Now there is Marvolo Gaunt’s ring, Salazar Slytherin’s locket, Helga Hufflepuff’s golden cup, and the serpent Nagini.
And the Headmaster you once suspected, Harry Potter.
I know the location of these Horcruxes, and I also know the protective measures he used. “
After saying this, Grete knocked on his head.
“Here are all the memories of Voldemort, and he tried to wash away my soul with his memories.
He almost succeeded. “
Gretel noticed that Dumbledore let out a cryptic breath after hearing what he said.
“Then let’s talk about cooperation.”
——
In fact, as long as one of the two negotiating parties comes to the negotiation with the intention of full cooperation, there is basically no possibility of the negotiation collapsing.
What’s more, after reading Dumbledore’s observation notes about himself, Gretel already knew that the White Devil, who had been responsible for the wizarding world for decades, had actually always tacitly approved of his actions.
In this case, the Death Eaters who undermine the social stability of the magical world have become a force that both parties must eliminate.
After all, neither the Order of the Phoenix nor Dawn want to see the magical world filled with war and bloodshed.
Previously, Gretel made a plan to steal chestnuts from the fire and quietly grow Dawn during the battle between the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix.
No need now, in the magical world, Dawn is not alone, and Dawn is not the only wizard with foresight.
After leaving Hogwarts, Dawn either united or was promoted, and its size increased rapidly.
The manpower has increased more than ten times so far, and new blood is constantly joining.
This is what worries Dumbledore about Gretel and Dawn.
What he was afraid of was that Dawn would expand in size, join forces with the Death Eaters, and turn the entire magical world upside down.
Although Dumbledore had never underestimated the Death Eaters and Voldemort alone, he was not very afraid that they would cause any catastrophe.
Most people are still peace-loving. Those who advocate violence and death, like Death Eaters, are still a minority after all.
Voldemort cannot succeed. Even if he defeats Dumbledore and Harry Potter, his rule cannot last long.
High-pressure rule will always be unpopular. One day someone will rise up and sweep Voldemort and the Death Eaters into the garbage heap of history.
Dawn is different.
We have the same ideals, the same goal, and the belief that we are not afraid of death.
Noble organizations always make people join in and fight for them involuntarily.
However, Suguang is still young after all. Whether it is the founder or the core members, in Dumbledore’s eyes, they are still a group of children waiting to be fed.
Young people always go astray easily, and Voldemort is very good at deceiving people.
Dumbledore was worried that if Gretel really chose to cooperate with Voldemort, the foundation he had created might one day become the wedding dress for Voldemort’s reign of terror.
At that time, Death Eaters wearing Dawn skin will really drag wizards all over the world into the abyss of destruction.
——
There is no need to worry now, Gretel chose to flip the table.
He wanted to gather his troops and fight to the death with Voldemort and the Death Eaters, and it was best to nip them in the bud.
He no longer considered the issue of plot collapse. Anyway, since he entered school, the plot of the entire magical world was inevitably collapsing.
This is the characteristic of a time traveler. The flapping wings of a butterfly will eventually bring about a hurricane.
It is better to deal with the Wizengamot, an organization that maintains the stability of the magical world, than to fight flesh and blood with the poisonous Death Eaters.
Dumbledore’s notes were not a lie after all, and his attitude towards Gretel was indeed the same as before.
When Grete proposed that he and Shuguang would not break the confidentiality law casually before they were completely sure.
Even if the law of secrecy was broken, he would not choose war. Dumbledore decisively chose cooperation, and the only thing left was to finalize the details.
Until now, he had not taken action against Voldemort, not because he could not defeat him, nor because he could not find him.
Besides, with Snape around, Voldemort would be dug out and destroyed even if he was hiding under the Netherworld.
If he couldn’t achieve success in one battle, Dumbledore would never choose to alert the enemy.
If you kill a snake, you will be harmed by it. Since you want to take action, you can’t leave any hope for him to recover.
Voldemort’s strength is considered to be the first in the entire magical world. Except for Dumbledore himself, no one dares to say that he can defeat him.
Even he is already a centenarian now, and his strength will continue to decline as he continues to grow older.
However, now with Gretel’s help, they no longer have to be cautious in gathering information.
When finalizing the details, what surprised Gretel most was that the only request Dumbledore made was that Gretel should protect his own safety.
If possible, he hoped that Gretel would not go to the frontal battlefield at all.
Not only him, but the students he took away from Hogwarts also tried not to confront the Death Eaters directly at Dumbledore’s request.
Gretel only needs to provide information, and leave the direct battle to Dumbledore and the elites of the Order of the Phoenix.
It was precisely because of Dumbledore’s request that Gretel truly opened his heart and revealed all of Voldemort’s methods.
This prevents Dumbledore from dying due to the curse like in the original world line.
In fact, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to kill Voldemort and Dumbledore together.
The black and white devils fought, and both sides suffered losses. In the end, in order to eliminate the darkness, the white devil heroically sacrificed his life, creating an eternal legend worth spreading.
At that time, there was no power in Europe that could stop him.
Indeed, Dumbledore did not stop his actions or even interfere with his actions while at Hogwarts.
But Gretel still couldn’t rest assured.
He was worried that one day when the law of secrecy was really going to be broken, Dumbledore would stand up and raise his arms, and the White Devil’s supporters would rush out one after another and tear Dawn into pieces.
It is very possible to be vocal.
After all, Suguang launched a public opinion war against Dumbledore regardless of the cost, and even the Minister of Magic stood up, but they failed to bring the British wizarding world into decline.
And according to Penello’s investigation, the longer time goes by, the more people will believe in Dumbledore.
In the past few days, the sales volume of newspapers controlled by Saini has almost doubled compared with the previous days.
However, the sales of the Daily Prophet, which is also at the center of the public opinion war, have fallen to a new bottom.
In this case, Gretel had to raise Dumbledore’s strategic position to a whole new level.
Fortunately, Dumbledore’s proposal dispelled Gretel’s dangerous idea.
In order to ensure that the Order of the Phoenix and Dawn would not break up after eliminating Voldemort, then turn around and deal with Dawn.
Gretel asked Dumbledore to promise in the contract that he would not threaten Dawn and its members in any way.
There is no need to recruit him into the gang, and Dumbledore will not break the law of secrecy that he has adhered to his entire life.
Being able to turn a blind eye is enough for Shuguang to grow steadily.
…
The contract was prepared by Grindelwald, the Dark Lord who once swept most of the wizarding world with war, and was the most knowledgeable person Gretel had ever seen.
In fact, it would be more appropriate for the peace talks to be hosted by Snape. Compared to Grindelwald, Snape is the one who makes both parties trust him at the same time.
But no matter what, whether it is Dumbledore or Gretel, magic cannot be restricted by ordinary spells.
Without a strong enough restriction, no matter who the two people are, they will not be able to achieve wholehearted cooperation.
Dumbledore was afraid that Gretel would retaliate, and Grete was also afraid that Dumbledore would settle the score later.
Only Grindelwald could barely be trusted by both parties.
Dumbledore was determined after having a detailed discussion with Grindelwald today.
Gretel believed in him because of his ideals.
To a certain extent, what Gretel is doing is exactly the unfinished business that Grindelwald desires throughout his life.
Gretel believed that he would not kill Dawn.
——
Both Dumbledore and Gretel were extremely decisive people.
Now that they have decided to declare war on Voldemort, they will not leave Voldemort time to prepare.
According to Gretel, Voldemort could clearly detect that every Horcrux was damaged.
Therefore, in order to prevent their actions from being noticed, Grete proposed to collect all the Horcruxes and then destroy them collectively.
In the original world line, Voldemort eagerly launched a war precisely because he felt that the Horcruxes were gradually disappearing.
Otherwise, he could develop slowly and hold the whole of England in his hands before launching a decisive battle.
By that time, Hogwarts would be like duckweed, just at the mercy of Voldemort.
With the information given by Gretel, Dumbledore’s actions were not unpleasant.
At the end of July, when it was the hottest time in the entire northern hemisphere, all the Horcruxes left behind by Voldemort were put into Dumbledore’s hands.
Harry was supposed to be at No. 4 Privet Drive this holiday, relying on his blood-related relatives to protect him and spend the summer vacation safely.
But because of Gretel’s intervention, he left home at the end of July and came to 12 Grimmauld Place.
This is the home of his godfather Sirius, but its most important use now is as a base for the Order of the Phoenix, the anti-Voldemort organization.
Harry Potter was brought here by Dumbledore himself. In front of his eyes, two adjacent houses split apart, and No. 12 Grimmauld Place squeezed out of the gap.
To be honest, he has been exposed to magic for four years and is about to become a fifth grader. However, the magic of magic still challenges his three views time and time again.
This was the first time he saw the appearance of a building protected by the Red Loyalty Curse.
“Let’s go, Harry.” Dumbledore rubbed Harry’s head.
They have decided that today, they will start the final battle with Voldemort.
Harry was brought here to get rid of the fragments of Voldemort’s soul attached to his body.
…
“Gretel?” Harry’s disbelieving voice echoed throughout the building, “Why are you here.”
Kreacher, the house elf who had served the Black family for several generations, huddled angrily under the large boiler in the kitchen cabinet and cursed in a low voice the group of wizards who had taken over the Black family’s property.
However, his voice was very soft. Sirius, the only descendant of the Black family, disliked him very much. Every time he heard him curse, he would always kick him aside fiercely.
When Gretel came, he cursed a mudblood, and was then severely punished by Sirius.
But this time, he should be grateful to the head of the family he hated, if it weren’t for Sirius’ kick.
He should be turned into a stone statue and leaning against the wall by now.
Gretel shrugged helplessly, “I don’t want to appear here either, but if I don’t come, who will help you take out Voldemort’s soul fragments?
Originally, I wanted to take you to my place, but Dumbledore felt that it was dangerous enough for you to leave your aunt’s house during the holidays.
If you go over mountains and ridges outside of England, you may encounter more dangers.
To be honest, I really wouldn’t want to be here if possible. “
Gretel looked around at the eyes of the people around him and leaned helplessly on the back of the sofa.
There is no way, everyone in the Order of the Phoenix, without exception, are all Dumbledore’s supporters.
Gretel dropped out of school at the end of last semester, something that made him famous.
Coupled with the subsequent public opinion incidents, after this series of events, Gretel felt that the people in the Order of the Phoenix did not take action against him because of Dumbledore’s dignity.
Fortunately, it seems that Dumbledore really doesn’t care about this matter.
At least, whether before or now, he has always maintained a gentle expression on his face.
Following Gretel’s gaze, Harry also noticed the eyes of the people around him.
“Grete, last semester you…”
Gretel knew what Harry was going to say and just shrugged helplessly.
He no longer wanted to answer this question. During this holiday, everyone who was close to him asked him why more than once.
Why else? Of course, it was through Dumbledore that the dawn of light appeared.
Otherwise, if we wait until the Order of the Phoenix starts a full-scale war with the Death Eaters before taking action, the day lily will be cold, and there will be no chance for Shuguang to develop.
Who would have thought that after meeting Porcelain, Shuguang would develop, and now he would have to cooperate with the person who was touched by Porcelain.
Even though he was a person from both previous and present lives, he couldn’t help but blush.
Gretel gritted his teeth and stood up.
“Harry, come sit here and let’s get that thing out of your head quickly so that this group of people won’t think I’m unscrupulous.”
After hearing Gretel’s words, Harry walked over without even asking Sirius and Dumbledore for their opinions.
Although he didn’t understand what happened, he believed that Gretel would never harm him.
After all, if you wanted to harm him, there was no need to tear him away from the Dementors on the Hogwarts Express.
He has never forgotten that Gretel faced the dementors in order to save him, and finally fainted on the train.
