Hogwarts card wizard

Chapter 309 Half Prophecy

Dumbledore's expression didn't change significantly after getting Kevin's answer, at least Kevin couldn't see anything.

"Professor, I have a question." Kevin asked at this time: "Harry is one of the conditions for Voldemort's resurrection. Now that he has been resurrected, can I understand that Harry has no effect on him?"

"I understand what you mean, Kevin!" Dumbledore said seriously, "You mean to say whether Voldemort will continue to target Harry, right?"

Kevin nodded and said, "That's right! Apart from the fact that Harry once defeated him, I really can't think of anything about him that Voldemort should target."

Voldemort was a great shame to be defeated by Harry, for which he had to kill Harry.At this point, Kevin can understand that it is not surprising for someone as arrogant as Voldemort to have such emotions.

If that's the only "feeling" he has for Harry, Kevin isn't worried.As far as the current situation is concerned, Hogwarts' protection of Harry's safety is not a problem.

But I'm afraid that Voldemort has other "unreasonable thoughts" about Harry!

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as you think." Dumbledore said, and then he asked, "Do you know why Voldemort had to kill Harry?"

Kevin shook his head and said truthfully, "I don't really understand."

"Sit down and have a cup of tea." Dumbledore poured a cup of hot tea for Kevin. After the two sat down, Dumbledore said, "The reason is because of a prophecy."

"Prophecy?!" Kevin asked in surprise, "What prophecy?"

Dumbledore said: "It was during the Great War, I think... 1979, the year before you and Harry were born. We formed an organization to fight Voldemort and the Death Eaters. Therefore, Hogwarts was a relatively safe place at that time, and in order to find a way to defeat Voldemort, your current divination professor Trelawney made a prophecy."

"Professor Trelawney?!"

Kevin couldn't help being interested.

This professor who likes to predict the death of students is not popular in the school, and most people even think that she is just a pompous, alcoholic and crazy woman.

No wonder the students thought this way, because Professor Trelawney never made a single true prophecy in the eyes of everyone.

Kevin used to think so too, so the divination class was a special class for him to make up homework.Until last year, Trelawney's prophecy in the divination class completely changed Kevin's view of the professor.

"The black-hearted murderer who betrayed his friends will be free, innocent blood will be shed, and the servant and master will gather soon!"

This was the prophecy Kevin heard at the time.

Trelawney not only successfully predicted the appearance of Peter Pettigrew, but also predicted the resurrection of Voldemort.As a witness of Voldemort's resurrection ceremony, Kevin can prove that Trelawney's prediction can be said to be completely correct.

It's just that the situation when Trelawney made this prophecy was very weird. Afterwards, she seemed to have forgotten what she had said.

So Kevin felt that his divination professor might have made some accurate predictions, but few people knew about it, and even she herself might not know about it.

Now Dumbledore's words seemed to put a check mark on his guess.

"What is the content of the prophecy?" Kevin asked curiously.

Dumbledore didn't play charades, and directly said the content of the prophecy: "The man who defeated Voldemort was born in July, and was born in a family that had narrowly escaped death from the Dark Lord three times."

"what?!"

Kevin was stunned, and asked in surprise: "What kind of prophecy is this? According to this statement, it is absolutely impossible that the only one who meets this condition is Harry... Wait, born in July! Three narrow escapes! Neville!?"

In order to eliminate Neville's social fear when he first entered school, he once invited Neville to chat with him.Among them, Neville told about his childhood and his parents.

Kevin remembered clearly that Neville said his birthday was July 1980, 7.For this reason, in the second summer vacation, Kevin gave Neville a gift on this day to express his blessing. Neville was very happy because this was the first time he received a gift from a friend.

Neville also said that his parents were treated at St. Mungo's, and told Kevin with great pride that they had narrowly escaped Voldemort three times.

These are exactly in line with what Dumbledore said in the prophecy.

Dumbledore also gave the answer, saying: "That's right! The people who met the conditions of the prophecy at that time were Harry and Neville.

Kevin felt unbelievable, and asked, "In that case, why is it Harry..."

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Kevin said thoughtfully: "I see, this prophecy must not be over yet, right?"

Kevin can only understand it this way. There should be a part of this prophecy that has not been said, and the part that has not been said proves that Harry is the one who defeated Voldemort.

Dumbledore said: "It is true that Voldemort learned of this prophecy through some means at the time, but he only got the first half! However, your question has nothing to do with the second half of the prophecy."

"What do you mean?" Kevin asked.

Dumbledore explained: "It's because Voldemort chose Potter! Voldemort's choice is also part of the prophecy."

Kevin nodded in a sudden realization!

In other words, Harry became the Boy Who Lived not only because he fit the content of the prophecy, but also because Voldemort chose him.

That's when Kevin seemed to understand.

See why Snape keeps targeting Neville.

In the perception of the students, Snape was aimed at almost all students except Slytherin, which is also the origin of his reputation as a short-term guard.

But in fact, there were only three people that Snape focused on.

Kevin, Harry and Neville!

Kevin knew why he was being watched. In his parents' diary, he learned that Snape had a good relationship with his father, so his targeting of Kevin was more like an alternative training, and Kevin is now studying Potions. The achievements have also proved this point.

As for Harry, anyone who understands understands!

That is the emotional debt of the previous generation.

Snape's love for Lily and hatred for James created his tragedy, and it also created his complicated attitude towards Harry now.

He hated but tried his best to protect Harry.

But Kevin didn't quite understand him targeting Neville.

Although Neville's academic performance really made the professors feel bad, Neville was a very hardworking person.The stupid bird flies first, and diligence can make up for one's weakness, which is perfectly reflected in him.

Even if such a student is not loved by the teacher, the spirit of attacking him should not be targeted.

After hearing Dumbledore's explanation today, Kevin finally understood.

Snape's "hate" towards Neville comes from this prophecy.Originally, Neville could have become the "savior", so that Lily would not die.

It's just that such a reason is very unfair to Neville. As Dumbledore said, the fulfillment of the prophecy does not depend on Harry or Neville, but on Voldemort's choice.

If Harry and Neville had a choice, neither of them would want to have such a life experience.
