Dumbledore looked at the boy who seemed to have lost his soul. He understood Godric's mood at this moment. He had also lost someone he loved, but the living must continue to live.

He hoped that Godric would understand, that he would understand.

In fact, everyone understands this truth. Whether you can do it or not depends on the person.

But to Godric, such reasoning is meaningless. He would rather die than have Salazar disappear from this world.

Snowflakes fell and soon covered the skirts of his clothes. James no longer tried to awaken Godric's consciousness. He carefully stayed by Godric's side and used his robe to cover Godric's head.

He stood in the snow, and soon white snowflakes covered his hair.

Wait a while, wait until Godric thinks clearly, wait until his sadness is over, and he can take the child home.

James sniffed and raised his head. Snowflakes fell into his eyes, turned into water, and fell along the bridge of his nose.

During the days when he was an enemy of Voldemort, he could always see death, some he knew, some he didn't know, and some he had good relationships with. He made an appointment with you to have a drink in a bar the day before, but he saw him pale the next day. The gray lifeless face.

However, James still found it heartbreakingly difficult to accept that Salazar was still a child...

He was not an adult yet, he was only sixteen years old, he was just a fifth grade student at Hogwarts, he was so young, but in front of everyone, he sacrificed his life.

For young people, adults have an indescribable tolerance, because those children who have not grown up have unlimited possibilities in the future, so Dumbledore has always emphasized not to let young children join the battlefield.

They should not be involved in this war.

If children are allowed to join the war, then what dignity do they, the adults, have?

But Salazar's performance was too reliable. Even Moody often said that this child is an excellent warrior. Only Professor Dumbledore would refute one or two. When he experienced the battle for Harry, it was James himself. , all feel that Salazar is an excellent wizard who can stand alone.

After all, he defeated a notorious werewolf.

James would also proudly show off to the rest of the Order that his children were simply awesome.

He also had the idea of ​​recommending Salazar to join the Order of the Phoenix, but Lily later gave up the idea.

Lily disagreed, saying she didn't want Salazar and Godric to be involved in dangerous actions.

At that time, James still remembered Lily's complicated expression.

"I'm selfish. I don't want them to join the Order of the Phoenix, nor do I want Harry to join. I hope all wars will end in our generation, and I hope my children will be safe and happy in the future."

At this moment, James suddenly understood Lily's thoughts.

What he is willing to sacrifice is himself.

He also hopes that children will not have anything to do with these brutal battles.

He has also become selfish...

The sound of ancient mantras gradually sounded.

It was like a song, a story, mixed with the atmosphere from ancient times.

James was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head and was about to say something, but the sight in front of him froze his body and he could not move his limbs.

A clear and cold water spread, and the blood that was originally frozen into ice was washed into pink by the suddenly summoned lake water, and wisps of it floated into the distance with the flow of the lake water.

A large amount of water came out of the lake, and James shuddered.

"what is this?"

The members of the Order of the Phoenix who had not left let out bursts of exclamations.

The lake flooded the entire Malfoy Manor. It was not that deep, only shallowly covering people's feet.

But the lake was extremely cold and smelled of danger.

Dumbledore lowered his head warily and looked at the large amount of lake water. Although the temperature was very low, it had no intention of freezing, and the lake surface quickly calmed down, reflecting the panicked faces of people.

Then, everyone heard a ethereal singing voice.

A pair of white hands stretched out of the water.

Those hands held Godric's face.

"Take whatever you are willing to take, even if it is my life..."

Godric's dry and hoarse voice broke the tranquility.

As the nearest person, James clearly heard a very soft laugh, which passed briefly.

"as you wish."

Godric, who had been unwilling to let go of Salazar, closed his eyes. He didn't even have time to look at Salazar again before he was pulled by the hands and sank.

James was just stunned when he saw Godric disappear into the lake water that only reached his feet. He bent down in disbelief and grabbed the corner of the hat floating on the water, and then he caught the hat...

Salazar lay on the water with a calm expression. The lake rippled and finally regained its calm.

what is this?

James watched helplessly as one of his younger brothers disappeared into the strange water, feeling a sense of powerlessness and absurdity.

He had a feeling - he would never see Godric again.
