[HP] Dearest Enemy

What happened after Aaron met Harry (T control and A control can be skipped)

When he first met Harry, the green-eyed man was still very young, bringing the kid who would become his love rival in the future to visit an old scholar who lived in seclusion in the reserve.Alex didn't pay much attention to Harry's enthusiasm for time magic at that time, but he quickly got along with Harry by virtue of his charisma and appropriate social skills.He was very curious about this gentle green-eyed young man, and he found many interesting things in him, such as traveling around with a child he obviously didn't like, and living among Muggles despite being a wizard.However, after this short meeting, Alex did not investigate this somewhat weird young wizard. At this time, Harry Potter was just a passer-by he encountered on the road, and he was bored by his boring life. Life adds a little ripple and then disappears.

In the year when he met Harry, Dumbledore found Alex on the recommendation of Stanley.Because of Grindelwald, Dumbledore needs a pure-blooded noble with sufficient family background to communicate with the German nobles for him, and Alex is a good candidate.Dumbledore explained his reason for coming, but under the reminder of his grandfather, Alex did not regard Dumbledore as a god like most young people, but communicated with Dumbledore as an equal and tested each other .Finally, under the notarization of Stanley and another member of the Wizengamot, Dumbledore and Alex signed an agreement, Alex served Dumbledore, and Dumbledore would be in Palampion Unconditional support and assistance when the family is in trouble.

Mr. Palampion acquiesced in Alex's decision under his father's persuasion. He clearly knew that his son did those dangerous things for Dumbledore in order to avoid his asking him to inherit the family business and become the next head of the family.Alex resented staying on the manor and tending everything to Palampeon's name, but he knew that sooner or later he would have to face reality.In the early summer of [-], Alex quit his job at the Ministry of Magic and began wandering around Europe.

At this time, Harry had brought Tom back to the wizarding world, and settled down not far from Diagon Alley.Alex stumbled upon Harry working in the bookstore in Diagon Alley, and visited him often.It was during this time that a friendship with Harry gradually developed.From [-] to [-] when Tom entered school, Alex had been in a state of idleness for five years.Dumbledore has another person behind Grindelwald's side. Alex only appears when he needs to have some more formal contact with wizards in Germany, and he usually lives a life like a playboy.

With the help of magic and Dumbledore's acquiescence, Alex easily frequented sensual places all over Europe, and sometimes spent a good night with handsome Muggles.He is looking for someone who is suitable to be his partner, and he has lived with a few people who are slightly compatible for a period of time, but they will soon break up due to various reasons, and the person he has spent the longest time with has not exceeded half a year.Alex gradually became disheartened, and the life of debauchery that his father denounced as "self-defeating" did not make him feel fulfilled, but made him feel even more empty inside.He began to doubt whether he could find a truly suitable person to spend his life with, and the person he wanted to find must be able to be the pillar of the other party.However, people always have more or less flaws, and Alex has never been able to find the person who can make him fall in love at first sight. The person he would find out from the crowd at a glance like Louis Claude back then has already no longer exists.

Alex returned to England after his chaotic private life, and began to consider the betrothal whom Mr. Palampion had chosen for him.But those young women still couldn't arouse his slightest interest.At this time, Dumbledore needed Alex to secretly go to Europe again. Alex unexpectedly met Harry who was busy with research in Germany.He became curious about the man and his experiments.Harry has been researching time magic for many years, and has found many experimental materials on the European continent that are not available on the British island.Alex accepted Harry's entrustment and returned to Great Britain to visit the boy who was with Harry. To him, Tom was as lovable as a disobedient brother.After that, he returned to Germany, because there were not many things that he needed to investigate himself, Alex stayed with Harry as a friend, and this was the first time he observed the area closely. With some weird people.

After spending four months with Harry day and night, Alex began to gradually change his view of the green-eyed man.Harry has a gentle personality but is not without temper; he is obsessed with time magic; he has an extremely strong sense of justice and compassion; he has a deep understanding and knowledge of war, and has an extraordinary skill honed from battle.Alex began to get used to living with Harry, and the relationship between the two became closer.At that time, it was not that Alex didn't think about bringing the relationship between the two closer, but out of some secret worries and the habits he had developed over the years, he didn't rashly take any action to embarrass Harry. , still living with him as a good friend.

These days in Germany undoubtedly confirmed the unshakable special status of Alex and Harry in each other's hearts, and the escape caused by the accident made Harry see Alex as a man who could entrust his life. close friend.At this time, Alex didn't realize that he had begun to pay attention to Harry's every move unconsciously. It wasn't until he left him in the farmhouse where the two were hiding that Alex began to notice Harry's uniqueness. different.But he restrained his feelings properly, and Harry's performance in some aspects reminded him of Louis who had betrayed him for no reason.Alex instinctively avoided anyone and anything related to Louis, and returned to England alone.

Dumbledore noticed Alex's social talents early on, so after the war began, the tasks assigned to him became more frequent and more confidential.Alex had no complaints about this, except that in the three years from [-] to [-] he never met the green-eyed man on the Continent again.Alex would visit Harry's godson Tom Riddle every time he returned home.Harry asked Dumbledore to take care of the boy before he left, and Alex learned something about Tom's behavior at school.This kid quickly discovered his talents after entering Slytherin, and learned how to use his specialties among the playboy in the Malfoy family and a group of Slytherins.Alex felt a little worried about Tom's character, but Tom, who behaved well, didn't give him a chance to interfere with his growth.

Harry finally returned to London during the summer vacation when Tom was in the fourth grade.At this time, Alex was circling in several aristocratic circles in the European continent and had no time to clone himself. He only learned the news through secret correspondence with Dumbledore.The dark wizard under Grindelwald finally connected this elegant British gentleman with the secret agent who was always in a hurry, and began to hunt and kill Alex overtly and secretly.Alex was attacked when he was returning home. Fortunately, by mistake, the German wizard was blocked by his Muggle compatriots as spies, and Alex was able to escape safely.

Because of this encounter that nearly cost him his life, Mr. Palampion insisted that Alex break the treaty with Dumbledore and stay in England.Staying in the country means inheriting the family business. After a big fight with his father, Alex finally made a small concession.He approached Dumbledore and asked for a position at Hogwarts for himself.Dumbledore didn't want to lose his staff, so he agreed to Alex's request.With Harry's support and Dumbledore's mediation, Alex got a teaching position at Hogwarts.

Going back to school makes Alex happy and sad, and he inevitably thinks back to his own noisy life in the castle.The life of being a professor is far more boring than being a spy, and it is at this moment that Alex discovers Tom's ignorant feelings for Harry.With a mischievous mentality to adjust the monotonous life, Alex challenged the handsome boy with dark eyes.The young and energetic Tom really took the bait, but the boy is as emotionally dull as his godfather, which makes people speechless.But Alex is happy to watch the show, and Tom, a good boy who is in the limelight in school, is always willing to be challenged by himself, and he is also very funny when he is full of smoke.It's just that Harry didn't know that he and Tom regarded him as a bet. He still focused on his own research, and at the same time did his best to do what a professor should do.Alex watched Tom and Harry fight, reconcile, and fight again, happily inseparable from Harry as brothers.It wasn't until the Quidditch World Cup that I kissed Harry under the incomparable excitement and mischievous mentality of deliberately watching Tom's good show, that I realized that the provocation I launched to Tom in order to amuse my boredom finally turned into a what kind of consequences.

Alex knew Tom had much more affection for Harry than Harry had for him, and Tom himself declared to him that he did love the gentle green-eyed man.Alex finds himself in big trouble for his best friend, but Tom is too self-aware a kid to reveal his feelings to Harry.The dull Harry didn't notice any changes in his godson, so Alex continued with what he had done before with peace of mind, but restrained a lot without Harry noticing.It's just that the line he drew for himself many years ago has never been erased, and Alex has always stood outside that line without taking a step forward.

Harry told him more than once to stay away from Dumbledore, and Alex speculated that Harry probably had some ulterior secret.Indeed, Harry is a man with many secrets and stories, which Alex discovered when he and Harry lived together in Germany.But there is a lack of clues, and Alex is unwilling to speculate on Harry's origin in too much detail.He did some research on Harry at Dumbledore's behest, but found nothing.This person seemed to have appeared suddenly, and there was no way to find out, so Alex was a little dissatisfied with Dumbledore. He felt that Dumbledore should trust Harry no matter what.

After the New Year in [-], the relationship between Harry and Tom dropped to freezing point again.Alex was acutely aware that the problem was the restrained dark-eyed boy who had told Harry of his admiration.Alex was worried about Harry, which was undoubtedly a difficult problem for this young man who was not good at handling such feelings, but he, who contributed to it, had no right to intervene in this matter at all.Alex asked insincerely a few times, but Harry took it lightly.Tom didn't like to see this unkind guy after the Quidditch World Cup, and Alex naturally wouldn't go to him to find trouble, so he had to keep his guess.It wasn't until Harry was admitted to the hospital due to another accident in the experiment during the summer vacation that Alex was able to confirm his guess.

Alex, who hurried back from Germany, didn't know the conversation between Harry and Dumbledore. Dumbledore concealed Harry's life experience from the future.Alex found some clues in the interaction between Harry and Dumbledore, but he didn't ask too much.Taking care of Harry every step of the way made Alex involuntarily realize that he was attracted to Harry again, and the curse mark on Harry's back made him fall into a dilemma.

Alex began to spare no effort to search for all the materials that could solve the curse on Harry.In his opinion, whether Harry was his best friend or the object of his love, Alex felt that he could not let him die early for this reason.When Dumbledore finally deduced the reason for Harry's curse, Alex quit his job at Hogwarts and left with the memory of Harry's three years of traveling in Europe and Dumbledore's entrustment. the UK.Before leaving, Alex expressed his wish to the second person who was willing to give everything for him.He didn't expect Harry to hear his confession. Because he was familiar with Harry's character, Alex chose to help him silently as a friend at the moment before leaving, but this idea came to him when he was looking for a way to break the curse. time changed.Although it was very difficult to find the solution to the curse, Alex realized that Harry was the one he had been looking for all along. They knew each other well, and he couldn't find someone more suitable for him than Harry.

Alex returned to the manor at Christmas and invited Harry to spend the holiday together.During the trial, he found that the reason why Harry refused Tom so resolutely was because his love life was much less than he expected.Alex was relieved, he thought he would have the upper hand in the competition with Tom.He made an agreement with Harry to find the solution to the curse for him, and formally issued a gauntlet to Tom.He knew that excessive demands would drive away this seemingly gentle but strong man, so he was sure enough that Tom would not dare to act rashly, even if Harry kept the growing boy by his side, he would win the final victory .

However, he did not expect that his death would come so suddenly.

Alex finally discovered the source of the curse on Harry in an abandoned old house.The completion conditions of the curse are very strict, and it will only work under very special circumstances, so Harry was not affected after being marked by the curse, until it was produced by the runes and spells he wrote on the time converter during the experiment Conflict, which fully activates the curse.Alex took all the information found in the old house and hurried to Munich to meet Harry.He knew that Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald, and those dark wizards who colluded with Muggles lost their original backers; he also knew that Tom came to Germany and asked to live with Harry.Alex is not worried that Harry will agree to Tom because of a soft heart, he will soon make Harry understand his mind, and in the previous temptation, he already knew that Harry would not object to marrying with the same sex. Mate, it made him more confident.

However, Matthias, one of Grindelwald's most powerful men, escaped the pursuit of the White Wizard.He found Alex's whereabouts, managed to rescue six ruthless subordinates, and set an ambush on Alex's secret way to Munich.Matthias, who had lost an eye in numerous encounters with Alex in the past, swore he would give the unscrupulous Brit a taste of his tricks.

Alex hadn't expected to be ambushed less than fifty miles from Munich.It was a trap set for himself, and Alex struggled to release word of his attack before he was fully rounded up.Matthias didn't mind that the white wizard who defeated their leader knew of the death of his right-hand man, and he sent Alex's ashes to England via the Muggle post office after he was killed.Seven black wizards shot the Unforgivable Curse at him together. Alex used his last reason and strength to save and hide the way to break the curse, but Matthias cleaned up the battlefield after Alex died. It was easy to find out the box that kept the solution to the curse, and burn it to ashes together with Alex's body.

Alex thought of his father in the last moments of his life.For Mr. Palampion, he was not a good son. His naughty childhood and rebellious youth made him have a bad relationship with his father who had high expectations of him. But as he grew older, Alec Si began to gradually understand the helplessness and compromise of that stern middle-aged man towards him.He still remembered his father agreeing to let him stay with Harry at Christmas, and he had responded coldly because of his hard mouth, and now he would never have the opportunity to tell his father what he really thought.

He also thought of Harry, the man with the gentle green eyes.He regretted it, but he didn't regret that he didn't let Harry know his feelings for him. What Alex regretted was that he took all the methods to break the curse with him, and only wrote in the letter to Harry When will he arrive, and when he arrives, he will lift the curse for him. He didn't say a word about how to break the curse. His self-confidence and negligence made him lose the chance to lift the curse forever.Matthias gave him the final blow, and this man, as dazzling as the sun, closed his beautiful steel-gray eyes forever in a foreign land.

In late August 32, Alex Devott Palampion was assassinated in Munich, Germany, at the age of [-].
