Vol 2 Chapter 1217:

In fact, before Albus and I left Hogwarts to start a different life, we wanted to take a world trip that was popular at the time...visit and observe foreign wizards.
However, in the evening before our journey began, Albus’s mother, Kedra, passed away. As the head of the family, Albus was able to support the family.
I postponed my departure for a long time to show respect to Kadela's funeral. Then go on this lonely journey alone.
There is no doubt that Albus will definitely not travel with me... He has a younger brother and a younger sister to take care of, and they have almost no money.
During those days, we rarely contacted. I wrote to Albus, probably unconsciously, describing the wonders and stories I saw during my travels, from the incident of barely escaping the chimaera in Greece, to Experiments by the alchemists in Egypt.
The letter he gave me hardly mentioned his day-to-day life. I think this kind of life must be very frustrating and boring for such a talented wizard. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
When I was still immersed in my travels, I was sad to hear that another tragedy had happened to Dumbledore: his sister Ariana had passed away.
Although Ariana's body has been weak for a long time, this blow shortly after losing her mother still has a great impact on the two brothers.
All these unfortunate personal affairs of Albus... plus the fortunate things that I have encountered... make Dumbledore feel that he is responsible for Ariana’s death (in fact, of course it has nothing to do with him), they give Dumbledore made an indelible mark.
In fact, after I went back, I found out that such a young man had already experienced the pain that an older person can experience.
Albus was a little more conservative and less carefree than before. Like God, in order to increase his pain, the loss of Ariana did not make Albus and Aberforth closer, but more distant. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
In any case, since then, he has stopped talking about his parents and Ariana, and neither will his friends.
It was as if the pain in the past was just to contrast his success in the next few years.
Dumbledore's numerous contributions to the academic field of magic, including the twelve uses of the blood of the dragon, will benefit generations. In the same way, he who became the wizard of Wissengamasi showed extraordinary wisdom in many trials. Many people say that there is still no wizard duel comparable to the one between Dumbledore and Greenward in 945. All witnesses wrote that they were watching the fight between these two outstanding wizards. The fear and awe felt.
Dumbledore’s success and the importance of these successes in the wizarding world have been recorded in the history of magic. It is considered a turning point in parallel with the introduction of the "International Confidentiality Doctrine" and the downfall of the demon whose name cannot be mentioned . &1t;i>&1t;/i>
Albus Dumbledore is never arrogant and conceited. He can benefit from anyone, but it is despicable and meaningless. I believe that those early setbacks gave him a noble personality and compassion.
Up to now, I can't believe I will lose such a friend, but my loss is definitely not comparable to the entire wizarding world. He is known as the most inspiring and beloved principal ever at Hogwarts, and he is still alive in people's hearts. For a long time, he has worked to make everything better. Until the last moment of his life, he must be happy to extend a helping hand to a little boy who has a dragon rash, just like the day I met him...
At this point, Harry was finished reading, but he still stared at the photo next to the obituary: Dumbledore had a familiar, kind smile, but his piercing gaze passed through him. The two-and-a-half-moon glasses gave Potter a strong impression even in newspapers, as bright, condensed, and intriguing as if they were starlight. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
However, there was a sense of shame mixed in Harry's sadness.
In fact, Harry always thought he knew Dumbledore well, but after he read this obituary, he had to realize that he had never known him.
Every time Harry thought of Dumbledore, he jumped out of the solemn, old man with a silver head he knew.
Whether it was him or anyone else, he had no idea of ​​Dumbledore when he was young, as if trying to imagine a stupid Hermione or a friendly snail.
Furthermore, Harry never thought about asking about Dumbledore's past, which would undoubtedly be strange, even reckless. And after all, the legendary duel between Dumbledore and Greenward had become popular knowledge, and Harry did not want to ask Dumbledore what kind of duel it was, let alone his other achieved. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
No, they just kept talking about Harry, Harry's past, Harry's future, Harry's plan... It seems that for the current Harry, even though his future is full of dangers and changes, he has already missed it. Those irreplaceable opportunities, to ask those about Dumbledore himself. Even the only personal question he ever asked the principal, Dumbledore did not answer him honestly: "What did you see when you looked in the magic mirror?"
"Me? I saw myself holding a pair of thick woolen socks."
A pair of thick wool socks from God!
As far as this obituary is concerned, what Dumbledore saw is definitely not that simple.
Fanlin had discussed some things with him, accidentally said, about the experience of two people, Fanlin and Dumbledore, looking for Horcruxes.
The magic of Voldemort once made Dumbledore lost for a long time, which is terrible, and it is reported that it was the magic left by Voldemort when he was a teenager. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
However, Harry noticed another message. Dumbledore was lost. The illusion always showed what a person desires most, like Bogut's fear against you.
Harry himself is a dementor, Ron is a giant spider, and Fanlin and Hermione are each other's corpses...
Of course, there might be changes now, and Harry knew exactly what he was afraid of.
Ginny?
What about... Dumbledore?
Everyone's desires and fears come from important people or things. Harry once asked, and Fanlin just answered him, you will know later.
Ariana, Aberforth, or Grindelwald?
Harry thought for a long time. He tore this obituary from the "Daily Prophet", folded it and placed it in the first volume of "Practical Defense Magic and Its Restraint to Dark Magic", and then took the rest of the newspapers. Throw it in the trash can and turn around to face the room: it has become much more tidy. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
The only thing left outside is today's "Daily Prophet", which is still on his bed. On top of it, is the fragment of the damaged mirror.
Harry walked across the room, removed the fragment of the mirror from today's Daily Prophet, and opened the newspaper.
When he picked up the rolled newspaper delivered by Owl Mail early in the morning, he only glanced at the headline, and when he saw that there was nothing about Voldemort, he threw it aside.
Harry could be sure that the Ministry of Magic would prohibit the Daily Prophet from publishing news about Voldemort. But now, he suddenly saw what he had missed because of it.
At the bottom of the first edition there is a small message with a photo of Dumbledore, which seems to have been posted in a hurry: Dumbledore-the final truth? Since last week, as the greatest wizard of his generation, the shocking story of this flawed genius has been valued by many people. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
Uncovering the popular appearance, this sage with a silver beard, Rita Skeeter, to show off his chaotic childhood, lawless youth, long-term family struggles throughout his life, and Dumbledore Lidonna brought the secret to the grave: Why did this man easily give up the chance to become the Minister of Magic, and only satisfied with being a principal?
What is the real purpose of the mysterious organization called the Order of the Phoenix? How did Dumbledore face his death? There are many other issues of this kind that have been explored in Rita Skeeter’s latest explosive biography-"The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore", see the thirteenth edition, Bei Interview with Ray Briswhite.
In an instant, Harry's face became extremely ugly.
Harry tore open the newspaper to find the thirteenth page.
At the top of this article, there is another familiar face of Harry: a woman with jewel-studded glasses, with a curly golden head carefully maintained, showing her teeth undoubtedly showing a triumphant smile. Wiggling his fingers at Harry. &1t;i>&1t;/i>
Harry tried his best not to look at this disgusting picture and read on.
In my opinion, Rita Skeeter is much more gentle and enthusiastic than her reputation for sharpness.
After greeted me in her cozy hallway, she led me straight into the kitchen to drink tea, ate a piece of heavy oil cake, and then, needless to say, it was an enthusiastic conversation.
"Of course, Dumbledore is the dream of every biographer," Skeeter said. "Such a long and fulfilling life. I promise that my book will be the first of many biographies in the future."
Skeeter did make the point.
Her nine-hundred-plus pages of work were completed only four weeks after Dumbledore’s mysterious death in June. I asked her how she managed to achieve this high feat.
&1t;i>&1t;/i>
"Oh, when you have been a reporter for so long like me, you will know that extreme work is just an instinct. I know that the wizarding world is clamoring to know the whole story. I want to be the first person to meet their needs. ."
I mentioned the comment that has been widely circulated recently by Efia Dogo, a special consultant of Wissengammer and Dumbledore’s long-time friend: "Skeeter’s book has not yet There are so many pictures of a chocolate frog."
Skeeter laughed. "Dear Dogo! I still remember interviewing him a few years ago about the rights of mermaid, God! He was so stupid, as if we were sitting at the bottom of Lake Windermere, but he kept telling me to be careful Salmon."
But the condemnation of Efia Dogo has had an impact in many places. Does Skeeter really think that just four weeks is enough to get information about Dumbledore's long and extraordinary life? &1t;i>&1t;/i>
"Oh, my dear," Skeeter smiled and knocked me affectionately with his knuckles, "Of course you know how much you can get in exchange for a big bag of gallons, a style that is never rejected, and a wonderful pen. News! People are queuing to expose Dumbledore’s stain! You know, not everyone thinks he is so good... He annoys many important people. The old liar, Dogo, will soon be taken off from him. Noble coat, because I got a source that many reporters would use their magic wands to exchange... a man who never spoke publicly, but was a very close figure in Dumbledore's lawless youth. The aforementioned public biography of Ben Skeeter does suggest that those who believe that Dumbledore’s life is flawless must be prepared for the blows that come."
I want to ask, then what is the biggest amazing thing she has uncovered?
"Don't ask now, Berry. I won't reveal any highlights until you buy my book!" Skeeter laughed, "but I can assure those who still believe that Dumbledore is as innocent as his beard. Let’s think about it. People have heard that he strongly opposes mysterious people, but they never dream of his own involvement in dark magic in his youth! As a wizard who advocated tolerance in his later years, when he was young But he is definitely not a man of great magnanimity! Yes, Albus Dumbledore has a very dark past, not to mention his filthy family that he avoided mentioning by hiding it by studying hard.
&1t;i>&1t;/i>
I asked Skeeter if she was referring to Dumbledore’s younger brother Aberforth, who was convicted by Wiesengarmore fifteen years ago for abusing magic against minors.
"Oh, that thing about Aberforth is just the end of the ugly lot," Skeeter said with a smile, "No, no, I'm talking about being better than a brother who wasted his time, and even more brutal than him. Muggle’s dad is more serious...Although Dumbledore could not calm either of them anyway, both of them were accused by Wizengamore. However! It is him who interests me. My mother and sister, unearthed a bit of a scandal that is well covered up... But, as I said, you will have to wait until Chapters 9 to 12 to know all the details. I can only tell you now. There is no doubt that Dumbledore never tells anyone the story of his broken nose."
Although the family scandal has been exposed, Skeeter can never deny Dumbledore's brilliance in many magical things, right? &1t;i>&1t;/i>
"He has a brain," Skeeter admitted, "although there are still many questions about whether the achievements that are now assumed to belong to him are truly the glory he deserves. As I revealed in Chapter 16, Ai F. Dillon Spey claimed that he had already discovered the eight functions of dragon blood before Dumbledore'borrowed' his thesis."
But, if I take the liberty to say ~EbookFREE.me~ the importance of some of Dumbledore's achievements cannot be denied. What about the famous event in which he defeated Grindelwald?
"Oh, I'm glad you talked about Grindelwald now," Skeeter said with a faint smile. "I'm afraid those who naively believe in Dumbledore's great victory will definitely seem to have been hit. A bomb...maybe it’s not as good as a dung bomb. It is indeed a very nasty method. What I want to say is, don’t be so sure about the spectacular duel in the legend. After reading my book, people may say Forced to admit that Grindelwald just conjured a white handkerchief from the end of the wand, and then it was all over!"
Skeeter refused to disclose more inside information about the conspiracy, and we had to turn to the interpersonal aspects that fascinated her readers the most.
