Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 954 Fear of Death and Greed

As June 24 approached, Albert's nerves began to tense. Unlike the savior Potter who gradually became confident, Albert was actually not very interested in the third item of the Triwizard Tournament , it should be said that he is not interested in risking his life to explore the maze.

Even though Albert knew that he could reap a lot of benefits after disposing of the fake Moody in the third project, but the rewards were often directly proportional to the rewards. To complete the tasks on the panel, he needed to risk his life to solve them. A dangerous Death Eater.

   After all, everyone is equal under the Avada Kedavra.

  Perhaps, Albert is afraid of losing everything he has now because he now has too many things that he never had in his previous life, and he still has an open life.

  He found that he was even more nervous than when he faced the basilisk and other dangers a few years ago. You must know that he is fully prepared now, which is far from what he was when he faced danger.

  Perhaps, seeking wealth and wealth and insurance is no longer suitable for me, and being an old dog is more suitable for me now!

  Albert laughed at himself in the depths of his heart more than once, thinking that it was really funny that he was assigned to Gryffindor. He was not a brave person.

  At least, Albert never considered himself brave.

  Although Albert did not show the slightest nervousness from the beginning to the end, it can be seen that he is actually very anxious since he began to check his plan constantly after entering June.

  Although the result of the third project is likely to proceed according to Albert's original plan, he is still making more careful preparations to ensure that he can escape unscathed when necessary.

  Albert suddenly understood why so many people were afraid of death.

   There are probably some things that cannot be let go!

He is not the savior Harry Potter, and he doesn't have the kind of courage from the beginning to the end. He even suspects that if the title of this book is not "Harry Potter", the grave of this tough-headed savior may be long ago. Grass.

   Of course, there is no point in complaining about this now.

  Beating Barty Jr. and winning the Triwizard Tournament is Albert's priority now.

   Clear the third item first, and then think about other things.

  Looking at himself in the dragon suit in the full-length mirror, Albert stretched out his hand and patted his cheek, and murmured: "It doesn't matter what the result is, anyway, I will definitely survive."

   After all, he had predicted that he would marry Isobel.

   If he died, then naturally there would be no such thing.

   It’s just that the third project still needs to be faced with 12 points of energy.

  The future seen in the crystal ball can also be changed.

  There was a knock on the door, and Isobel opened the door and came in, looking at Albert in the fire dragon suit suspiciously, wondering why Albert was wearing this suit.

  Albert didn't pay attention to Isobel's suspicious gaze, but started to move his whole body to check whether the dragon suit would affect his next battle.

   This time the opponent is not a fire dragon, but a dark wizard. He had better make sure that he is flexible enough to avoid the spell used by the fake Moody while taking Felicia.

  As for resisting spells with the powerful defense of the dragon suit, that is only for ordinary wizards, not the Death Eaters who want to kill him.

Of course, the reason why Fengya Wizard Clothing Store sent back the dragon suit is to let this costume complete its final mission and share the glory of Albert winning the championship, instead of letting Albert's corpse be carried out of the maze wearing it, Completely reduced to a laughing stock.

  As long as Albert can wear this suit to win the championship, there will be a new set of fire dragon suits as compensation according to his favorite style.

   Albert suspected that wearing this fire dragon suit and leading the subdued little Barty out of the maze would attract a lot of hatred from Voldemort after it was published in the newspapers.

   This is not good news, it means that his blacklist in Voldemort's heart has moved up a few places.

   "How is the house over there?" Albert asked suddenly.

   "It's not good yet, I'm afraid I have to wait for a while." Isobel looked at Albert who was moving, and asked with a little doubt: "What's the matter, are you in a hurry?"

"After this semester, for the sake of safety, I'm afraid we won't be able to show up again." Albert stopped moving his body, and said to the red-haired girl beside him, "I'm afraid you can only use the double-sided mirror to communicate with the family at home for the time being." Got in touch."

  The double-sided mirror technology has been restored. Although it is not as easy to use as the previous double-sided mirror, it means that it can be sold for a higher profit.

   "It seems that you are still hiding a lot of things from me!" Isobel was not angry, but stood there waiting for her boyfriend's explanation.

"The mysterious person is probably going to be resurrected, and I'm probably the most unpopular type, and you are my girlfriend, everyone knows our relationship, for your safety, it's best for you to hide Choose." Albert's face was full of guilt and helplessness.

"Actually, you can tell me that there's no need to keep everything in your heart. I know you've been under a lot of pressure recently." Isobel didn't get angry because Albert still planned to keep hiding it from himself, but just stared at him calmly , However, this move virtually put a lot of pressure on Albert.

"Well, I'm probably implicated." Under Isobel's gaze, Albert finally compromised. He has been under a lot of pressure recently and needs to find someone to confide his secrets, "Someone wants to attack Potter , I think you should have guessed it."

"The labyrinth of the third project is indeed a good place." Isobel quickly realized what was going on. The fact that Harry Potter became the fourth warrior was quite weird, and someone wanted to attack him. Not surprising.

"I am currently the most promising champion, and I have become an obstacle in the eyes of some people." Albert said rather helplessly, "I have a hunch that the guy's goal should not be to kill Potter, but to kill Potter." Take him away, as for the reason, I think it may be related to the resurrection of the mysterious man."

   "They plan to attack Potter, what does that have to do with you?" Isobel asked with a smile.

   It's just that the smile on the girl's face is a bit permeable no matter how you look at it.

"Divert your attention." Albert hesitated for a moment, knowing that this reason was not enough to convince Isobel, he continued: "Of course, he also probably knows that I helped Dumbledore make a few prophecies related to the mysterious man , and Peter Pettigrew was once sent to Azkaban Prison by me, he is also an accomplice of the resurrected mysterious man, with new hatred and old hatred, it is not surprising that they want me to die."

"Of course, another reason is the combination of Muggle wizards and geniuses. The hatred of pure-bloods is too great. I guess the Death Eaters who were originally hiding will want to find a chance to kill me after returning to their master. " Albert's mood suddenly calmed down, "I'm going to take this opportunity to get rid of that Death Eater hiding in Hogwarts, and minimize all risks. Only death can guarantee our safety."

   "A duel of life and death?"

Isobel didn't care that Albert was about to kill a Death Eater. Although she didn't know why things turned out like this, it was obvious that Albert was able to raise his vigilance and act so uneasy. Danger.

   "It counts,"

   "Are you confident that you can win?" Isobel asked with a frown.

   "I'm stronger than before." Albert muttered, "But you also know that dark wizards always like to throw the Avada Kedavra curse. Although I'm fully prepared, I still feel a little worried about you."

Isobel was silent for a moment, and reached out to hug Albert: "I believe you can solve any problem, just like you were able to defeat Rowena Smith when you were in adversity, and now you have no reason to lose, and You promised to marry me next year."

   "Of course." Albert kissed Isobel's cheek, and said seriously: "I never do things I'm not sure about."

"Okay, can you tell me now, what made you willing to take such a big risk?" Isobel didn't think that Albert didn't know the risks involved in this matter. Since he was willing to take risks, there must be greater risks benefit.

  She is very clear about Albert's character, and even everywhere.

   Presumably Dumbledore paid enough.

  Although there were some errors with the result, Isobel's guess was not wrong.

   "I can gain Dumbledore's knowledge."

   "Mr. Flamel's knowledge is not enough for you?" Isobel's expression was a bit complicated. Knowledge is precious, but... life is more precious.

"It's a good deal." Albert explained, "Anyway, I'm enough to attract the hatred of pure bloodists now, and most of those guys are Death Eaters who haven't been imprisoned in Azkaban." Since murder is inevitable when You-Know-Who is in power, it doesn’t really matter if you attract some hatred. As long as we stay in a safe enough place to help cheer, someone will take care of the rest of the trouble for us.”

  Isobel knew that Albert had done the right thing, and now he could only support him to go on.

"On the day of the third event of the Triwizard Tournament, my family will receive an invitation to watch the game. Then you will come with them and help me take care of them." Albert continued, "Wait for the Triwizard Tournament When it's over, I intend to send them out of the UK immediately."

   "I'll help you."

   "You are so kind!" Albert took a deep breath.

   "It's good to know." Isobel gently rubbed Albert's cheek, and then kissed him lightly on the forehead.

Sometimes, Albert even wanted to give up the mission and live his little life in hiding with Isobel, but this idea was quickly suppressed. He knew that he was prepared and left himself behind , will not fail easily, let alone die easily.

   More importantly, he wants more experience, more skill points, more valuable knowledge, more powerful power, he wants more, more...

  Greed, sometimes it is really an original sin.
