The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

The wand that Jon raised could not help but hang down again.

His brain was thinking fast, but he couldn't think of any effective way to deal with it.

He could clearly feel that the soul of Astoria Greengrass was getting weaker and weaker; while the monster's soul was getting stronger and stronger, gradually seizing the dominance.

If the Horcrux cannot be destroyed, it means that the further expansion of the blood-curse soul cannot be prevented; once the blood-curse soul completely occupies the girl's body, everything will be irreparable...

"Then can the monster completely occupy her body... and then use the Horcrux to revive her?" Jon suddenly thought.

The initial function of the horcrux itself is that some dark wizards use it to resurrect themselves, which has an effect similar to "the phylactery of the lich".

Jon quickly dismissed the idea himself.

The wizards who can use Horcruxes to resurrect themselves are all extremely powerful dark wizards; such as the despicable Hai Erbo and Tom Riddle.

Possessing advanced magic and souls stronger than ordinary wizards; they can use Horcruxes to resurrect after their bodies are destroyed.

Astoria-Greengrass certainly does not meet any of these points; and after being tortured by the soul of the blood curse for many years, once her fragile soul is squeezed into the Horcrux, there is a great chance of becoming a "dead soul" .

So even if it is resurrected, it can only be resurrected as a walking dead...

The girl's face became distorted and her skin became pale.

The soul of the blood curse has become stronger and stronger, and it is almost about to completely seize control of this body.

Jon took a deep breath, then raised his wand and aimed it at the locket on Astoria's chest.

He had no choice... he could only destroy the Horcrux, even if it meant sacrificing part of Astoria's soul; that would at least leave a glimmer of hope.

at this time--

There was only a "bang", and the door of the Room of Requirement was forcibly opened.

...

An old wizard with silver hair and waist-length hair barged in.

He was dressed in a fuchsia velvet suit, and his pale blue eyes shone brightly under half-moon spectacles.

"Dumbledore...Professor Dumbledore..." Jon seemed to grab a life-saving straw. He looked at the old wizard who broke in for help, and said hoarsely.

Albus Dumbledore's face was so serious at this time, even a little beyond Jon's imagination.

There is no kind smile, no spark of happiness in the eyes behind the lens, and every wrinkle on the old face is dignified.

He didn't even have time to say hello to Jon, but strode past him, right up to Astoria.

Astoria had already fallen to the ground at this time, struggling in pain, and the expression on his face gradually became ferocious.

And the strange elderberry wand in Albus Dumbledore's hand suddenly emitted a red light... The strong light enveloped Astoria's side, and also enveloped the pendant on her chest Box (the Horcrux Jon made for her).

Jon watched silently on the plate, watching the strong red light getting stronger and stronger... At the same time, he also felt that Astoria's soul power was gradually recovering, and the soul of the blood curse was being suppressed little by little. .

Feeling everything that happened so clearly, Jon's solemn face did not relax at all. .

The bright red light gradually dissipated, and Astoria collapsed on the hammock, and she seemed to have fallen asleep.

Dumbledore also sat down on the ground, and the wand in his hand was thrown aside casually... The old man was panting heavily, and it could be seen that he was very, very tired now.

...

"Professor... thank you..." Jon turned around.

Dumbledore's pale face seemed to have regained some blood, and he asked softly, "No...it failed...is it..."

"Yes!" Jon nodded, and then smiled bitterly: "The soul of the blood curse has developed too powerful... The effect of the Horcrux can only make Astoria her own soul, squeezed out in vitro……"

Dumbledore stood up, walked to Jon, and patted his head kindly.

"I'm sorry..." he said softly.

Jon bowed his head silently, without saying a word.

"Half an hour ago, Aberforth sent an owl to tell me... He said that you brought Miss Greengrass back to Hogwarts from the Pig's Head Bar!" Dumbledore said in a gentle voice, " I guess you should be ready to start making that Horcrux, and I also guess that you should choose this place...so I rushed here, fortunately in time..."

"How long can Astoria live?" Jon raised his head and asked seriously.

"A week at most..." Dumbledore sighed again: "I forced her soul in the Horcrux back into her body...but after this incident, the soul of the blood curse has already occupied the body Most of the dominance, if this continues, her soul will be completely swallowed by the blood curse soul for a week at most."

After listening to Dumbledore's words, Jon suddenly felt a little sour in his eyes.

So...it's all over...so much effort...in vain...without any hope...

"You have done a perfect job..." Dumbledore comforted softly. He sat next to Jon and patted him on the shoulder kindly: "From finding the method of making the Horcrux... to collecting materials... to thoroughly Complete the production of the Horcrux..."

"...No one can do it more perfectly than you, but none of us expected that the blood curse soul would develop so fast..." Dumbledore sighed for the third time:

"In the past few weeks, Miss Greengrass has been relying on her own will to support, to prevent that monster from gaining control of her body, and she has worked very, very hard... You have all done your best!"

"But, what's the use..." Jon shook his head dismally: "What's the difference between the current ending and doing nothing..."

His teeth bit his lips hard, and Jon fell to his knees, trying not to shed tears.

...

Albus Dumbledore stood up, looked at Jon who was kneeling on the ground, and then at Astoria who was unconscious.

"Actually..." Dumbledore said quietly, "You didn't need to do anything..."

"What?" Jon looked up in surprise.

"Because... there is another way!"
