The Mightiest Badger at Hogwarts

indeed.

Even though he could clearly kill the hunters and Aurors, Norton chose to injure them rather than kill them.

Even though he could rely on powerful AOE attacks to advance quickly, Norton chose to use his superb combat skills to move towards the coalition command post one step at a time.

In Newland's opinion, this is the most outrageous provocation!

However, upon hearing this, Link burst into laughter.

He glanced at Newland with a strange look and said disdainfully:

"Provocation? I only saw a pathetic person, begging from me shamelessly!"

"Begging? How is this possible?"

Newland almost shouted.

"How is it impossible?" Link looked at the battlefield with interest and said, "Look, the war going on in front of you doesn't look like a war at all? It's more like a dancing girl trying to please her master. , and the ongoing stage play is spectacular, graceful, harmless and humble!”

Newland couldn't understand what Link said at all, but at this moment, Norton on the battlefield suddenly made an exaggerated jump and turn, shooting out a large amount of magic power, and these magic powers exploded in the air The dazzling blood light turned into bright red petals all over the sky, which contrasted with the flowers blooming on the beach.

But there was no attack on the scene that could force him to make such an evasive move.

And those bursting red magic petals are far more ornamental than practical.

By this time, the anger on Newland's face finally faded away, completely turning into suspicion.

"But...but why is he doing this? What is he begging for? To survive? But he should know that this is impossible!"

Newland said doubtfully.

But this time, Link and Dumbledore just glanced at him and did not answer.

Because, at this moment, Norton had already reached the command post.

Unlike others in the command post who were facing a powerful enemy, Link and Dumbledore showed extremely high levels of cultivation at this moment.

Without even pulling out their wands, they stood up and walked toward Norton with a smile.

As the distance between the three people got closer and closer, the coalition forces also stopped attacking.

They were afraid of accidentally injuring Link and Dumbledore. Even though they knew very well that their attacks would not cause any harm to characters like Link and Dumbledore, they were unwilling to do so.

Because this is disrespectful!

The three of them just came together.

Facts have proved that Norton was not as relaxed as he had previously shown in the face of the coalition's attack.

At this moment, he has actually lost his original grace.

He was panting like an ox, his face was as white as paper, and his hands hidden in his robe sleeves were trembling.

None of this escapes Link's eyes.

He smiled contemptuously, and even the giant evil beast condensed behind him opened its bloody mouth and said:

"You're in a bad state. To be honest, it's hard to satisfy me with such a performance."

"But at least it looked pretty good when I watched it from a distance, didn't it?"

The speaker was Dumbledore.

As he spoke, his eyes were always on Norton, with a smile on his face but a deep sadness in his eyes.

Hearing this, Link frowned slightly. The huge evil beast transformed from the power of the curse behind him noticed his master's mood and roared at Dumbledore in dissatisfaction.

"You want him to get what he wants?" Link said expressionlessly.

"After all, I am also a teacher, so I will inevitably feel soft-hearted when I see such a situation."

Dumbledore spoke but did not look at Link, but walked in the direction of Norton, "Tom, I must admit that I was wrong. You are indeed a qualified professor. Maybe I should have let you join the job in the first place. Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, in this case, all subsequent tragedies would not have happened.

Of course, I know there is no point in saying this now.

Because I made too many mistakes in educating you.

For example, the first time we met, do you still remember what happened that day? "

Norton calmed down and said:

"Of course, I was staying in the orphanage at that time, and people around me didn't like me very much because I moved objects through the air and talked to snakes. It just so happened that I didn't like the incompetent people around me very much, so I treated them very badly. Some tactics were used. Well, some pretty violent tactics, and stealing. It made my life a lot easier."

Norton paused for a moment, "Then you showed up. You started preaching to me as soon as you showed up. Of course, I wouldn't listen to those words. After all, I have heard too many similar words, so I felt at that time that you were just like those incompetent people who just wanted to control me."

"Then, I will burn the cabinet where you store the stolen items." Dumbledore said with some pain, "This is a complete threat, using a power more powerful than you to threaten and control you.

Later, I reflected on it and realized that you actually had nothing wrong at that time.In that environment, if you don't do that, the Muggles around you who are hostile to you might just kill you. This is very likely to happen. Human beings are sometimes so vicious. They like to bully their own kind, and derive pleasure from the pain and even death of their kind.

And what I did was obviously wrong.This will lead you to the conclusion that 'whoever is stronger can control and harm other people'.

Facts have proven this, because you did exactly that later.

So I have been thinking that if I had been more mature in my thinking, stronger in suppressing my anger, and more patient with your attitude, maybe everything would have changed. "

"No, no, no, it won't happen. Professor Dumbledore, you are completely overthinking this."

Norton waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No matter what attitude you adopt to treat him, or even let him become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, the ending will not get better, or even get worse. Because he The moment his mother gave birth to him and wished that he would have the appearance of his father before she died, the seeds of hatred had been planted in his body, and as he grew, they penetrated deeply into his bone marrow!

I know this all too well, because once upon a time, I was him and he was me. "

"So what now?" Dumbledore lowered his eyes, "Are you no longer Tom Riddle or Voldemort now?"

Norton smiled happily:

"Of course! So many things happened after I was awakened from the Horcrux. These things made me reborn, and I understood many things that I had not understood before, and I also felt the emotions that I had dreamed of and longed for. All of this Let me no longer be the same person I once was. Now, I prefer others to call me Professor Norton, or just call me, Norton Beauxbatons!"

Dumbledore closed his eyes in pain.

He believed that Norton had truly changed himself at this moment, but unfortunately, this change came too late.

Norton was very calm about this. He turned to look at Link who remained expressionless and said nothing, and said very seriously:

"You have to believe No. 1. You should be able to understand who I mean No. 1 represents, right?"

Seeing Link nodding, Norton continued:

"I am the split soul that has followed him for the longest time, so I have the deepest understanding of him. For a long time in the past, like you, I was full of doubts about his behavior and could not understand it at all. What was the purpose of what he did.

Even now, I don't have a clear answer in my mind.

But thanks to these days of sleepless thinking, I finally got some results.

I can only tell you that although No. 1 talks about "love" and "great love" with high-sounding words, in fact, his ultimate goal may not be that great.

We all overcomplicate things. "

"I suggest you just tell the answer to the matter all at once, instead of choosing to be a Riddler like you are now." Link rubbed his temples, and the cursed beast form behind him changed due to Link's impatience. He became more and more ferocious, "Believe me, this is the best thing for you. After all, you are the one asking me for help now!"

"No, I can only tell you so much about No. 1. No more, and terrible things will happen. You also know that in essence, his souls and mine are actually connected. This is for Hello."

Norton said anxiously, "But I can give you some other information, such as the Deathly Hallows!"

Link raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to signal Norton to continue.

Seeing this, Norton swallowed and said:

"The God of Death is real! Although He does not control the power of death as depicted in many legends, He does exist! After collecting the Deathly Hallows, you will have the opportunity to see Him, but it is not necessary to do so as a last resort. Don't do that. Because the moment you see the God of Death, what you get is very likely not eternal life, but death!

There is only a very small chance that you can defeat death and fulfill certain wishes. "

Link looked at Dumbledore beside him.

According to Link, Dumbledore seems to be the only person alive who has access to all three Deathly Hallows.

But at this moment, Dumbledore just shook his head at Link.

Link couldn't tell whether Dumbledore was telling him that Norton was lying, or warning him not to try to collect the Deathly Hallows.

Because at this moment, Dumbledore had fully activated Occlumency, so that even Link could not peek into his thoughts.

"Then in the end, there is only 'blood' left. Oh, it should be called 'King's Blood', right? I heard you call it that. But before completing the final delivery, I also want to give you a piece of advice. !”

Norton looked very anxious, because as early as ten minutes ago, he had witnessed several pairs of hunter groups and Aurors rushing into Beauxbatons Castle. "The King's Blood is not a perfect thing. In fact, it is It can even be said to be the most evil and terrifying force in the world. If possible, please try not to touch it.

Of course, I knew you wouldn't listen, so I just mentioned it. "

As Norton spoke, he grabbed the wand with his backhand and stabbed it into his heart, then pulled it out suddenly.

A large amount of blood spurted out from the hole.

There is also a lot of blood of the king that exists in an energy state.

It was as if they had their own consciousness and knew clearly that the body they had been in was heading towards death, so they couldn't wait to escape from there and rushed towards Link in a panic in the air.

The phantom of the evil beast behind Link rushed out before the ball of king's blood could get close, opened its mouth and swallowed it directly.

The next moment, Link felt a trance.

This time the influx of the king's blood was the same as before.

Link did not receive any clear barrage message.

The data panel in his body popped out uncontrollably, and the various values ​​on it were beating wildly, so fast that they turned into afterimages.

The pattern-like cracks on the data panel are also rapidly spreading and growing, causing the entire data panel to look like delicate porcelain on the verge of falling apart.

But even though the data panel is already in a state of near-strike.

Link can still feel the increase in his power.

The magic power, mental power, spell control, proficiency and even soul strength in his body have all increased greatly.

The sudden increase in power even overflowed from the pores on Link's body, forming a small magic storm around Link.

The vague shadow of the evil beast that was originally staying behind Link almost solidified at this moment, turning into a black lion wearing a crown and armor, clinging tightly to Link. 's back.

This level of power improvement has almost pushed Link to the high-level legendary wizard level.

As for the so-called high-level legendary wizard level, Link had also discussed it with Dumbledore, so it was clear that this was a level that only existed in legends.

In the long history of magic, no wizard has ever reached such a state, and it has been clearly recorded.

Because in a sense, after reaching the high-level legendary wizard level, the individual wizard is no longer a human being, but a god, almost an omnipotent god!

"Puff-"

Norton fell to his knees heavily.

Blood continued to pour from his wounds, mouth and nose.

With such serious injuries, he should have died violently in just a few seconds.

But now not only was he not dead, but he was dragging his seriously injured body to slowly kneel down beside Dumbledore, hugged Dumbledore's legs and murmured:

"Please, please, please..."

Dumbledore also squatted down.

He reached out tremblingly, hugged Norton, stroked his hair, and turned to look at Link.

For the first time in his life, Link saw pleading in Dumbledore's eyes.

On the other side, Newland, who followed Link, also received information collected from the Aurors in Beauxbatons Castle.

At this moment, he finally understood what Link meant by 'begging'.

His pupils were trembling a little, and the emotional impact this incident had on him was too great.

Finally, he took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to kneel down on one knee and said:

"Your Majesty Foley, our personnel have already searched Beauxbatons. The students inside have been controlled by someone using the Imperius Curse, and the man in front of us now is obviously the culprit!"

Hearing this, Link glanced at Newland in surprise, as if he was surprised that he dared to speak for others at such a moment.

The dark lion behind Link was much more straightforward and roared directly at Newland.

A powerful and terrifying aura surged towards Newlan, who was so horrified that he immediately changed from kneeling on one knee to kneeling on both knees, his whole body shaking like chaff.

But even so, he still did not retreat.

Link sighed, glanced back and forth at everyone, and then said slowly:

"Since they were controlled by the Imperius Curse and committed such a crime, then let's acquit them. After all, they also have magical blood."

After finishing his words, Norton finally loosened his grip on Dumbledore.

He fell backwards and was caught by Dumbledore in time.

It was not until this moment that everyone discovered that he had died long ago, with a happy smile on his face.
