Chapter 786: Dumbledore's death

No matter how many reasons there are, people can't really not worry.
"In a few months, George will be able to kill Voldemort." Harry said affirmatively, "At that time, everything will be fine."
"There are still a few months," Ron said with emotion, "It's really tough."
The last few months were actually not difficult.
Everyone is busy, and it's April soon.
On a Saturday morning in mid-April, an unexpected guest greeted the school.
In the principal's office at Hogwarts.
George took out a crystal cup from the cabinet on the wall and made a cup of coffee for the guest.
He put the coffee on the desk and pushed it in front of the guests sitting across from the desk.
He greeted plainly, "Lupin, your condition doesn't look very good, things are not going well in the Order of the Phoenix?"
The visiting guest is Lu Ping, the contact person of the Order of the Phoenix.
He has more white hair than when he met last time, and his expression is getting more and more haggard, and his face is tired.
Lupin took the cup and took a sip of coffee, with a wry smile on his face, "There is no Order of the Phoenix."
He sighed, "The Order of the Phoenix is ​​over."
George sat back in the chair and asked slightly surprised, "Dumbledore finally decided to rest?"
The Order of the Phoenix was formed by Dumbledore to fight against Voldemort.
George has never been optimistic about the actions of the Order of the Phoenix. After the wizard's power reached a certain stage, other people were no longer qualified to fight against strong men like him and Voldemort.
However, he did not try to convince Dumbledore, a stubborn old man over a hundred years old, it is impossible to be persuaded.
And now, before Voldemort was dead, the Order of the Phoenix would disband, which surprised him a bit.
Lupin was silent for a while. "There is no Dumbledore."
George was stunned for a moment. Dumbledore died like this.
Then he reacted and said to himself, "Dumbledore is old, he wanted to die early. After fighting Voldemort last year, he was unable to recover from his injuries, and time is long gone."
George was mentally prepared for Dumbledore's death, and Dumbledore wanted to die early. But he thought that Dumbledore would at least wait until he killed Voldemort before he died.
Unexpectedly, life and death, Dumbledore, after all, was very old and wounded, after all, he could not make it to the end.
"That's fine," George said calmly, "After the Order of the Phoenix is ​​disbanded, you can also be quiet and rest for a while."
He suggested, "I think, whether it's the Ministry of Magic or Diagon Alley, there are many jobs that suit you."
Lupin nodded silently, and Dumbledore's death caused the people of the Order of the Phoenix to lose their backbone and their goals.
At this time, the only thing they could think of was George, and he would naturally not object to George's arrangement.
George continued, "Does Dumbledore's funeral require any preparations? If you need anything, please speak up."
He added,
Although I have no experience in this area, there are enough people in the school. After all, Dumbledore has served as the principal of Hogwarts for many years, and the school will not ignore it.

"Thank you!" Lupin said gratefully.
He shook his head slightly, "There is no funeral. This is Dumbledore's last wish. He doesn't want to disturb anyone, and he doesn't want anyone to disturb him. He asked me to bury him and his family. ."
George nodded, "That's good, I know, he longed for this day early. Death is a relief for him."
Lupin said relievedly, "Dumbledore's injury began to deteriorate in the first two weeks. We want to inform you, but Dumbledore has been unwilling."
Lupin recalled the scene when Dumbledore was lying on the hospital bed, always confessing for what he had done.
"He is very guilty. At the last moment, he was a little confused. He kept talking to himself, blaming himself for seeing things happen, but not stopping anything."
In the last period of his life, Dumbledore has been trapped in memories of self-blame. For his sister, for Voldemort, for Hogwarts.
"I didn't expect Dumbledore to have so much pressure in his heart." Recalling the scene, Lupin realized that he had never known this old man.
He used to think that Dumbledore was the embodiment of light, like a hero without flaws. But until he listened to Dumbledore's confession before his death and learned about his life, Lupin discovered that Dumbledore was no different from any weak old man.
His generosity just doesn't care ~EbookFREE.me~ His bravery just doesn't matter to him. Until the moment of his death, Dumbledore could not emerge from the shadow of his boyhood.
"He had a hard time, but fortunately everything is over. He is free."
George couldn't help feeling that Dumbledore was too tired and depressed to live.
A young man who lost his heart in his teens, a living dead who could only stay with portraits for most of his life. Death is the greatest relief for Dumbledore.
Lupin nodded, "Death is a good thing for Dumbledore."
After learning about Dumbledore's life, he also had to admit that death was a relief for Dumbledore.
Lupin then picked up a black suitcase from his feet. He put the suitcase on the desk and opened the suitcase.
There are only two things in the box.
A golden cup with exquisite carvings and a long magic wand looks like it has been around for many years.
Lupin said slowly, "This is the relic that Dumbledore confessed to me and must be handed to you personally, Hufflepuff's golden cup, and his wand."
George gently picked up the golden cup, and the moment he started it, he had determined that this was Voldemort's last Horcrux.
He put down Hufflepuff's golden cup, took up Dumbledore's wand, and examined it carefully.
The body of the wand is a material that is rarely used as a wand-elderberry.
In traditional wizarding knowledge, elderberry is regarded as the habitat of the soul. Therefore, in the making of magic wands, elderberry contains taboo colors. In modern wand making science, it is expressly prohibited to use elderberry to make magic wands.
"Old magic wand?"
George looked at his wand and said to himself. With the special material and long history, he has already guessed about the magic wand.
