A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Chapter 474 Spiritual Support, Dumbledore’s Order of the Phoenix

"Dumbledore must know that you left that letter." In the Hall of Divine Sound, the missing body said with great certainty, "Maybe he guessed it when he saw the letter, but there is no evidence."

"I think so too." Aaron sighed deeply, "What a secret! If I had known, I would have put a forgetting spell on that owl before leaving last night.

No, you should use the Imperius Curse to make it find a random passerby. This might muddy the waters. "

"It's meaningless to say this now. He's already trying to trick you tonight."

"I also made my attitude clear. I just don't want to leave him alone, and I don't want to get involved in the fight between him and Voldemort."

The missing body smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I thought it was too easy. Dumbledore never gave up fighting for Gaius' power, but he just didn't have the right opportunity.

What's more, you have shown strong prophecy ability this time. I'm afraid he will be more determined to tie us into the chariot.

Unless you drop out of school now and stay at home, it will eventually be inevitable. "

"That's not possible." Aaron waved his hand and said, "It's impossible to drop out of school, at least until you develop.

Besides, the situation isn't that bad. As long as we don't take the initiative to get involved, Dumbledore won't be able to do anything no matter how powerful he is. "

"That's all I can think of."

The missing body said sarcastically, unaware that a flag was set up by them inexplicably.

...

The next day, the Christmas holiday officially begins.

Hundreds of wizards who decided to go home for Christmas left Hogwarts Castle with their suitcases after breakfast.

Aaron also felt relieved that he had not seen for a long time, especially when the thirty members of D.A. left one after another, which made him feel so happy.

It is really difficult to be a conscientious teacher, especially when the level of students is still uneven, which makes it even more difficult.

He also compared himself with the teachers at home, and came to the conclusion that the teaching level was not at the same level, and he was not even a little bit behind.

But later he discovered that he was wrong. There was definitely a gap between his teaching level and that of his ancestors, but it wasn't that big of a gap. The reason for this feeling was simply that the students he taught were different.

The ancestors taught geniuses like him, and it was one-on-one tutoring, so it was natural to be relaxed, but he taught thirty wizards of different ages with obvious differences in basic skills. Merlin would feel tired even when he came.

"It's good to go. I can have a good rest before the holiday is over." Aaron couldn't help but sigh, and Abe, who was squatting beside him, nodded vigorously.

"You are really here?"

A familiar voice came from behind.

Everyone turned around and saw Hermione panting, with a slight embarrassment on her face.

"How did you know I was here?" Aaron asked in surprise.

“Sireen said you weren’t in the common room, and Ms. Pince said you weren’t in the library.

I haven't found the place where you often appear, so it's very likely that you are in the Room of Requirement. "

"You're smart." Aaron rolled his eyes, "But if you want to tell me about the D.A.'s next arrangements, you better keep your mouth shut.

Vacations are for relaxing, and I don’t want to put any more burden on myself. "

"No, I'm here..." Hermione hesitated, hesitating for a while before she seemed to make up her mind, "I'm here to apologize."

"Apologise?" Aaron was a little confused, "Why do you want to apologize?"

"I, I...did you write a letter to Ron the night before yesterday?"

"No, there is absolutely no such thing. Why should I write him a letter so quietly?" Aaron denied it. He couldn't admit it. It would not do him any good.

"I know it's you." Hermione said anxiously.

Aaron curled his lips disdainfully, "You can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. Some things require evidence."

"I have no evidence, but... I gave Professor McGonagall the idea of ​​using Hedwig to find someone."

"What?" Aaron opened his mouth in shock, wanting to curse, but he couldn't say the words.

"I really didn't mean it." Hermione said weakly, "I didn't know it was you beforehand."

puff!

Aaron smiled forcefully, feeling like his heart had been hit by a 10,000-point blow.

"I thought it was Dumbledore who discovered the flaw, but...why was it you?"

"sorry."

"It's too late to say sorry now. This time I was tricked by you." Aaron said depressedly, "Dumbledore talked to me last night."

"I'm not punishing you, am I?" Hermione asked anxiously.

"No, I didn't admit anything." Aaron said angrily, "But I'm afraid his attention to me will skyrocket in the future."

"That doesn't sound like a bad thing!"

"Then you are really overthinking. Why do you think I secretly slipped the letter to Ron in the middle of the night?

First of all, it was troublesome. Umbridge monitored the communication channels of Hogwarts, and it was much easier to send a message to Ron than to the principal.

Secondly, it's still troublesome. Voldemort's activities are becoming more and more frequent. If I go directly to Dumbledore at this time, it will basically be the same as taking sides. "

Hermione frowned slightly when she heard this.

"Aaron, you may not be happy when I say this, but I think we should support Dumbledore."

"I support it!" Aaron said seriously, "I support it mentally. After all, I don't want Voldemort to rule the magical world. He seems to be a pervert, but in fact he is crazier than anyone else."

Hermione:......

"I'm not talking about moral support, but physical support."

"I also supported it. That letter helped Mr. Weasley save his life to a great extent." Aaron said lightly, "This can be regarded as protecting Dumbledore's side, isn't it?"

Hermione was speechless for a moment, "But can't you just be simpler?"

"No." Aaron said bluntly, "I am different from you. One of the ancestral mottos of the Gaius family is not to get involved in large-scale disputes between wizards or between wizards and Muggles unless absolutely necessary.

The price of violating this ancestral precept is unbearable for me. On the contrary, as long as I don't get involved, no matter how chaotic the world is, the fire will not burn me.

So I will try to remain neutral as much as possible. This is what Slytherin is best at, protecting himself wisely. "

Hermione nodded in understanding, and today Aaron made his position clear.

Although she was a little surprised by the neutrality, since everyone had brought out the ancestral teachings, it might not be that difficult to persuade him to join Dumbledore's camp.

"Okay! I seem to understand." Hermione said listlessly, and then changed the subject, "But I still have a question. Since you chose neutrality, why did you send a letter to Ron!"

"There doesn't seem to be any conflict!" Aaron said lightly. "I only got a prophecy the night before yesterday. Weasley's life is in danger, but I don't know which Weasley it is. I only sent the letter out of gratitude to my friends. Just concern.

I'll tell you what you don't want to hear, but if I got a prophecy that Malfoy's life was in danger, I would also give the letter to Draco. "

"That's it." Hermione suddenly realized, and said meaningfully: "This should be considered a loophole in the rules!"

"Hey, you can't say that." Aaron rolled his eyes at her and continued: "Dumbledore must have an organization dedicated to fighting Voldemort, right?"

Hermione hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.

"How did you know?"

"Is there any need to guess at this?" Aaron said speechlessly, "If Dumbledore was alone, he could compete with Voldemort, and it would be possible to win in a fight.

But if Voldemort joins the Death Eaters, then he alone has no chance of winning. If there is no force to fight against the Death Eaters, Voldemort may be able to lead a group of people directly to Hogwarts and eradicate his dominance of the wizarding world. the biggest threat. "

"Tell me honestly, have you joined this organization?"

"Well... not yet." Hermione said with some regret.

"Thank God." Aaron breathed a long sigh of relief. "For the sake of your friends, I will give you a piece of advice. It is best not to join this organization."

"Why?" Hermione frowned, "Only by joining the Order of the Phoenix can we unite to resist the Dark Lord's power, otherwise there is no difference between us and a piece of loose sand."

"Order of the Phoenix?" Aaron smiled nonchalantly, "Dumbledore chose a good name.

What you said makes sense, I don't deny it.

But the mortality rate of members of the Order of the Phoenix is ​​probably not that high. The Moody, Lupin, and Sirius seen on Platform Nine and Three-Quarters should all be members of the Order of the Phoenix.

To fight against Voldemort, one must be prepared to die at any time, and they obviously have this awareness.

Some of them joined the Order of the Phoenix many years ago, and some are elites absorbed after Voldemort's resurrection, but you are just an underage witch, so there is no need to get involved. "

"I'm not afraid," Hermione said firmly.

Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!

Aaron couldn't help but clapped his hands, "As expected of a Gryffindor who does not lack courage.

Hermione, let me ask you a question and I hope you can answer it honestly. "

"what is the problem?"

"Are you alone?"

Click!

There was a sudden thunder in Hermione's heart.

She seemed to understand what Aaron meant, her face suddenly turned pale, and even her originally firm heart began to waver.

Seeing the change in her expression, Aaron shrugged slightly, "It seems you have figured it out.

You can put your life and death at risk for justice and peace, but if something happens to you, what will your parents do? Can they accept their daughter..."

"say no more."

Hermione squatted down, clutching her heart, and crystal tears welled up in her eyes.

She felt heartbroken just thinking about that scene. At this moment, she had to admit that she was not prepared. A few words from Aaron made her blood run cold.

Aaron sighed, then took a bottle of butterbeer from Abe's pocket and gave it to her.

"Thanks!"

After Hermione took it, she drank heavily.

After downing half a bottle of beer, she barely recovered.

“What I just said is a little cruel, but it’s the truth.

When you persuade others to join such a high-mortality organization, first put yourself in their shoes and think about whether you can do it yourself. "

Hermione nodded hard, and then seemed to think of something, "Harry and Ron..."

"Please, you are different from them." Aaron rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Harry is the Boy Who Lived, the savior of the wizarding world.

His parents died at the hands of Voldemort, which destined him to stand on the opposite side of Voldemort.

As for Ron, let alone...his parents are both members of the Order of the Phoenix, not excluding Charlie, and Bill has also joined the Order of the Phoenix. In other words, he is a reserve member of the Order of the Phoenix. "

Hermione's expression froze. That was true, but she still felt that something was not right.

I bet they are both related, but she is the only one from a grassroots background?

"Both of them have no choice, but you are different." Aaron said earnestly, "Fortunately, you haven't officially joined the Order of the Phoenix, otherwise it might not be that easy to quit."

Hermione smiled forcefully, "But according to what you said, if everyone chooses to protect themselves wisely, then no one will be able to stop the Dark Lord.

His reign was the darkest period in the wizarding world. We can't just watch and do nothing, right? "

"Correction, Voldemort is not that powerful yet.

The Wizarding War he launched was only within the scope of the British mainland, which was much worse than the Wizarding War launched by the previous generation Dark Lord Grindelwald that swept across Europe. There was a bit of disdain in Aaron's tone, "Besides, you worry a little too much."

Even if the sky falls, there will still be tall people holding it up, not to mention that the sky will not fall. "

Hearing this, Hermione instinctively felt that there was something in Aaron's words, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

tall? Probably referring to Dumbledore!

But that's right, as long as the White Devil is still alive, the Dark Lord cannot cover the sky with one hand.

"Haha!" Hermione smiled bitterly, feeling that she was a joke at the moment.

She originally planned to persuade Aaron to join the Order of the Phoenix. It was certain that he would not agree, but it would plant a seed in his heart.

But now the situation seems to be reversed, and she is the one who is persuaded. What is this!

"No, no." Hermione seemed to have thought of something, "Don't change the subject. I just said that not everyone can choose to stay safe. The Order of the Phoenix needs new blood to join."

"Then there is no shortage of you." Aaron said nonchalantly, "Joining the Order of the Phoenix means standing on the front line of the charge. The mortality rate is high, the success rate is low, and there is no reward except stimulation. Their loved ones will also be in a huge crisis, and it won’t be worth it no matter what.

If you really feel sorry for yourself, you can choose to become an ally of the Order of the Phoenix, which may not be so dangerous. "

"You are truly a Slytherin." Hermione said with a dumb smile.

"Be content, I won't say so much to other people."

"Thank you, I will seriously consider it.

I plan to go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Witchcraft and Wizardry to visit Mr. Weasley. Do you want to come with me? "

"I always spend Christmas at school, so I definitely can't make it through." Aaron said, and then he seemed to think of something, "There is something I may need your help with."
