Chapter 303: Salute to you

Gellert Grindelwald, like himself, is also a prophecy Magus?
Jon was a little hard to imagine this fact, but when it was told from Albus Dumbledore, he couldn't make any doubts.
"In fact, at the beginning, I didn't know anything about prophesying Magus..." Dumbledore slowly said: "Until the turn of the spring and summer in 1945, after the duel in Berlin; Geller Te dropped his wand and told me the truth... he told everything and then asked for my forgiveness..."
"But I can't forgive him..." There were tears in Dumbledore's eyes, and his eyes turned to the oil painting: "Because of Ellen, because of Youssef... and, because of Ariana..."
The girl in the portrait shook her head slightly to Dumbledore.
"You prevented him from being sentenced to death, right?" Jon said softly, "I have read the record in "Modern History of Magic", Minister Leonard Muen and Mr. Winston Churchill tried to execute him... …But they were persuaded. In the end, Greenward, the dark wizard, was sentenced to life imprisonment without suspension."
"Compared to death, there are many other ways to destroy a person, which are more cruel." Dumbledore did not deny this, but only explained indifferently.
Jon nodded slightly, and did not continue to speak.
...
The basement door was pushed open roughly, interrupting their conversation.
Aberforth Dumbledore broke in, holding two dirty beer mugs filled with butterbeer.
He placed two beers heavily on the table, then glanced at Principal Dumbledore who was still sitting in front of the painting.
"Don't dirty my floor!" Aberforth shouted coldly.
"I understand... I'll clean it..." Albus Dumbledore wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, replied, and sat back at the table again.
Aberforth walked out of the basement without looking back, and closed the door heavily.
"My rude and impulsive brother..." Seeing Aberforth's back, Dumbledore sighed, "He is more worthy of people's admiration and respect than me!"
"Mr. Dumbledore still trusts and respects you..." Jon said sincerely, "He is just not good at expressing feelings."
"Yes!" Albus Dumbledore smiled: "I almost forgot the identity of Margus you predicted. In fact, you should know each other better than we do."
...
"Let's start from the beginning..." Dumbledore offered to offer:
"When I first saw you, at the sorting ceremony four years ago... I didn't pay much attention to you. After all, you are just an ordinary Muggle-born freshman... …Although Godric Gryffindor has always insisted that a Muggle-born wizard is an outstanding talent in itself..."
"I quite agree with Mr. Gryffindor's view!" Jon couldn't help but interject.
"...The Sorting Hat told me that you refused to go to Gryffindor, but went to Hufflepuff!" Dumbledore ignored Jon's interruption and continued to smile and said, "Please forgive the selfishness of an old man, this It made me a little bit unhappy at the time; and it might be bragging to say so, because I come from Gryffindor, and in recent years there are usually slightly more students who have chosen to go to Gryffindor..."
"But you are indeed a perfect Hufflepuff. Diligence and integrity are reflected in you to the fullest..." Dumbledore gave Jon a deep look.
"You started paying attention to me at that time?" Jon asked in surprise.
"Of course not..." Dumbledore shook his head: "It is impossible for a principal to pay attention to every student all the time. In my opinion, you are just a sturdy grass that grows up to me. It will take some time..."
"Later, the monster in the Slytherin Secret Chamber appeared... You hinted at the anomaly of Miss Weasley and the traces of the basilisk through a little trick... I have to say that you did it very cleverly and did not let you The existence of appeared in my vision; I tried to search the castle for a few months, but never thought that the'culprit' was actually a first-year freshman; I even thought all this was a coincidence..."
"If it weren't for Bogut's accident...I might have been kept in the dark." A smile appeared on Dumbledore's face: "When that happened, I thought of everything before, and I would have understood."
"To be honest, I was also shocked..." Jon nodded.
...
"You are very similar to Gellert. After all, you have the same talent..." The expression on Dumbledore's face gradually became serious: "Meticulous ~ EbookFREE.me ~ hard enough and extremely hardworking... But compared to Gellert, you are not so indifferent and ruthless, you have to be more upright and kind..."
"Integrity and kindness..." Jon couldn't help but was stunned. He didn't expect Dumbledore to make such an evaluation of himself.
"In order to prevent that Slytherin monster from harming more people... You have been hinting to us the truth, and have been trying to guide us. If we are shrewd enough, there may not be an attack after Mrs. Loris... ...It's a pity that we were too slow." Dumbledore said quietly:
"I don't know what will happen in the future, if it weren't for you... Maybe more students would be attacked, maybe someone would die, maybe I would really lose my headmaster's hat, maybe even Hogwarts would shut down. ..."
"You prevented this from happening, Jon." Dumbledore raised the Butterbeer: "So now I must salute you, for your courage buried in my heart, for your kind and upright heart! "
"It might be a bit ashamed to say..." Jon smiled helplessly: "Actually, I just want to protect myself. After all, as a Muggle-born wizard, I may be attacked by a basilisk at any time... Under the nest, there will be no finished eggs."
"There are many ways to protect yourself, but you chose the one that I admire the most." Dumbledore smiled gently: "Of course there is also Miss Greengrass, when Miss Greengrass was in Defense of the Dark Arts. After you fainted in class, you looked anxious and concerned..."
"So after knowing that you are a prophet Magus, I am very happy... because I know very well that you will not become the second Gellert, even though you are very similar to him."
