Vol 2 Chapter 1156: prophecy

Dumbledore stood up and walked past Avon and Harry, in front of a black cabinet next to the Phoenix perch.
He bent down and pulled the latch out of it to remove a shallow stone basin and meditate the basin.
"The prophecy is crucial from beginning to end. It determines that you are the opponent of Voldemort, not me, not Avon, not everyone else, only you, Harry!" Dumbledore said, back At his desk, put the meditation basin on the table, "on a cold and wet night 16 years ago, in the pig's head bar at Hogmund. I went there to see a divination. The applicant of the class teacher, although this is not in line with my intention to continue the divination class. But the applicant is a very well-known and very talented prophet, so I want to see her is usually Etiquette. But I was disappointed. In my opinion, she did not inherit the talent at all. I wish she told her politely that she was not suitable for this position. Then I turned and walked away, but To my surprise, she was motivated by this incident at that time, she made a real prophecy, and it was the beginning of everything."
Dumbledore raised his wand and pointed it at the temple, and took out a few silvery, spider-like slender fibers of glue on the wand, and put these thought fibers into the stone basin. He watched his thoughts in the meditation basin. Rotate and float.
After a while, he sighed and raised his wand and picked the silvery material at the tip of the pole.
A figure emerged from the inside, surrounded by a shawl, her eyes were extraordinarily large behind the glasses.
She slowly rotated, her feet in the meditation basin, and Sybil Terry Launet spoke, using the harsh, hoarse voice.
"The man who conquered the power of the Dark Lord came closer. He was born in a family that had defeated the Dark Lord three times. Born in the seventh month, the Dark Devil head marked him as his rival, but he had no Dark Lord. The energy of understanding. One must die on the other hand, because two people can't live, only one survives, and the one who has the power to conquer the Dark Lord will be born at the end of the seventh month..."
The slow-rotating Professor Trelawney was immersed in the silver thread below, and the office was quiet.
No one made a slight noise, and even the phoenix was quiet.
"This is the content of that prophecy? A true prophecy?"
"Yes, a real prophecy," said Dumbledore.
He is still staring at the meditation basin, and it seems that the whole person is in meditation.
"But what does she mean?" Harry asked. "Why..."
"What she meant is," said Dumbledore. "The one who had only one chance to conquer the demons forever, was born at the end of July, nearly sixteen years ago. The boy's parents had defeated Voldemort three times."
Harry felt as if something was tightly tied to him, and his breathing seemed to be difficult again.
Dumbledore looked at him through his eyes for a while.
"In fact," he said softly. "Sybir's prophecy can be applied to two wizard boys. They were born at the end of July of that year. Their parents are in the Order of the Phoenix, and they used to Three times escaped from the hands of Voldemort. One is of course you, Harry, and the other is Neville Longbottom."
"But why is my name appearing in the prophecy, not in Neville?"
"When you were a child, Voldemort attacked you and the official record was re-labeled." Dumbledore said, picking up the prophecy again. "In the opinion of the custodian of the prophecy hall, it is obvious that Voldemort wants to kill. Only you, because he knows that you are the one that Sybil refers to."
"But, maybe it is not me?" said Harry. "I don't understand why it must be me?"
"I think, I am afraid that person is definitely you." Dumbledore said slowly.
"You just said that Neville was also born at the end of July, and his father and mother..."
"The key is the second half of the prophecy, the final identification of the boy who can conquer Voldemort. Voldemort himself marked him as his rival. He did it, Harry. He chose you, not Neville, he Leave this scar on your forehead that has been proven to be both a blessing and a curse."
"But he may have chosen the wrong one!" Harry said immediately. "Or the wrong person!"
"The boy he chose is someone he thinks is very likely to pose a threat to him," said Dumbledore. "And be careful, he chose not pure blood, but mixed, like himself. Before he saw you, he saw himself in your body. When he left you the scar as a mark, he failed to kill you as he wished, but gave you the opportunity to grow and grow. It is these that allow you to escape from his hands, not only once, but also to face him alone, and this, neither your parents nor the parents of Neville have done it."
"Ivan has done it too, and he has escaped from Voldemort many times."
"Oh, I think, this is because Ivan is involved in another prediction and the plan left by the four founders of Hogwarts." Dumbledore said seriously, "but his opponent is not Voldemort, he can beat. Voldemort's people can only be you, Voldemort personally selected you."
"I don't understand why he is doing this?" Harry asked, he felt cold and unaware. "Why should he try to kill me when I was a baby? He should wait until I am After Weidu grew up, look at who is more threatening to him and then try to kill that person..."
"This may indeed be a more effective way!" said Dumbledore. "But it does not rule out that Voldemort does not fully understand the content of the prophecy. Sybil chose the pig's head bar because it is cheap. The pig's head bar Customers who have been attracted for a long time, if we can say this, are much more interesting than the customers of the three broom bars. This bar is definitely not a safe place to expect your conversation to be eavesdropped. Of course, when I set off When I saw Sybil Trelawney, I never dreamed that I would hear something very valuable. It should be said that our luck lies in the fact that the eavesdropper was only heard a small part of the prophecy. Then it was thrown out of the bar."
Ai Wen sucked his nose, and Snape overheard the prophecy, not a complete prophecy.
Dumbledore should never say this thing, he promised, so he did not let them enter the meditation basin.
The eavesdropping of the prophecy was probably the most painful thing in Snape’s life, and it was a mistake in itself. (.)
