Chapter 226 Three Worlds
There was silence in the principal's office.
Fox, who had just passed away, seemed to be recovering his strength, and fell asleep in a bird's nest. On the wall covered with portraits, every principal was closing his eyes and taking a nap, but no one was snoring slightly.
Sherlock stared blankly ahead, obviously shocked beyond measure by these words.
"You mean, my mother is not dead yet!"
Dumbledore gently rubbed the back of his hand with his fingers and said calmly.
"I wish that was the case, but the fact is that Sally died when you were three."
"Then what did you say is dormant in Voldemort's main soul?"
Dumbledore did not answer his question directly, but suddenly clasped his intertwined hands and asked.
"Do you know how ghosts are formed?"
Sherlock muttered.
"Because I have a huge obsession before death and am unwilling to leave the world of the living..."
"The soul is so wonderful." Dumbledore said softly, "Sally wanted to use her already split soul to pull Tom into the dead world, but after she found that she could not do this, she should have The souls who leave to travel to the other end of the journey continue to stay in the world of the living because they are unwilling to do so.”
"This world is divided into three categories, the world of the living, the world of the dead, and the spiritual world that only wizards can see."
"Magic comes from emotions, emotions come from the soul, and the soul and the spirit arrive at the same destination in different ways. Muggles are the only living people, and it is unknown what the dead are, while wizards are the combination of the living and the spirit, and ghosts are the combination of the dead and the spirit."
"Whether it is a wizard or a ghost, the spirit is the dominant one. When the spirit, which can also be said to be the emotion, is persistent and powerful enough, it can influence the living and the dead."
"This is a power that Tom will never understand, the most powerful magic."
Dumbledore's voice was low, but his blue eyes were really shining, as if he was telling something unknown and great.
Sherlock pursed his lips and slowly spoke a word from his mouth.
"like."
The old man with a white beard sitting opposite him laughed heartily.
"Many people have asked me what is the most powerful magic in the world, and I have told them without any secret, the powerful power I know. But you are the first, Sherlock, the first Say this word to me."
"Everyone knows that emotion is the key to releasing magic. So what emotion is the strongest, greatest, and most selfless? Such an answer is a question that faces all wizards, but those who can really see it have been in the entire history of magic. I can’t find any names.”
"And your mother, she is the one who sees it most clearly. Whether it is what she left you or what she wanted to do, she used that powerful power."
"The part of Sally's soul that was separated and wanted to pull Tom into the world of the dead was dormant with this power. But after all, it was just a part of her soul that was abandoned by Sally and wanted to pull Tom to die together."
Dumbledore's voice gradually faded.
"And the real Sally was the one who was forcefully instilled with countless memories of resentment and hatred, was completely driven crazy, and was finally released. In the end, she died on St. Mungo's hospital bed with those memories. With my incomplete soul, I embarked on a greater journey on the other side.”
Sherlock's lips moved and the sound was inaudible, but those familiar with it could tell from the shape of his mouth that he was speaking the name "Bella".
He made another note for this woman in his heart, and now there were two accounts.
"Then why is it that after Voldemort knows my identity, he will put me and Harry on the same level and want to kill me?"
Dumbledore said extremely seriously.
"Tom knows very well what Sally has done, and he also knows very well that there is an extra ghost in his soul, who has been trying to pull him into the world of the dead. But he has no solution. The Horcrux splits the soul so that he can live forever. Similarly, his soul has become in pieces, and even the main soul that can be reborn after death is also broken. "
"He has no way to get rid of Sally's entanglement by himself, but after he knows that Sally actually has a son like you who has been hiding deeply, he will definitely make an attempt."
"Just like that year, he decided to go to the Potter's house based on the prophecy and bet that young Harry was the one who could kill him in the prophecy, he would also bet on whether you were hiding in his soul, Sarah. Li’s obsession.”
At this moment, Sherlock finally understood everything Dumbledore was hiding, and he took a deep breath.
"So you made a pact to hide this matter, just to prevent the news that she has a son like me alive from spreading. Otherwise, before Voldemort goes to the Potters and loses his power, he will do whatever it takes. Pay the price to kill me."
Dumbledore's eyes were deep and profound.
"When Tom lost his power and everyone else in the magical world thought he would never come back, no one who made the pact at that time spoke up about telling the truth. What Sally did What he did was not recorded in any file.”
"In the eyes of people like Tom, this bold and overconfident witch has always been alone. I have also tried my best to maintain her image and never revealed the relationship between you, your father and Sally. The information is out there.”
"But no one who knows about this will forget what your brave mother did, and I will never forget that in Tom's soul, there is one of the most talented students who has ever walked out of Hogwarts. , what she clung to most deeply is still there.”
He blinked calmly at Sherlock and said calmly.
"No one deserves to die, and no one is unworthy of death. The same is true for me. When the day comes that I need to die, I will not hesitate like your mother, but in Before that time comes, there are some things I need to let you know.”
"I haven't thought about when. I just thought that if you are really not suitable for the magical world later, I will tell you this after everything is settled."
"But your performance exceeded everyone's expectations. Not only me, but Kingsley, Minerva, Arthur, Molly, Alastor and others are all impressed by you."
"So today may be the most appropriate time to let you know these things."
"Your mother, Sally Helena Forrest, was not an unreasonable lunatic. She was the bravest, greatest, and most beloved mother in the world."
