Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 685: Starting the Plan

“Reparo!” Dumbledore gently tapped the diadem on the desk with the Elder Wand.

Ravenclaw’s Diadem made a continuous, slight rattle that reverberated in the office.

It was like the sound of the wind chimes swinging, and the diadem, broken in two, quivered slightly on the desk.

Then, it floated up, spun up quickly in mid-air, faster and faster…

By the time it fell, the fracture had been reconnected, and the two split parts merged into one.contemporary romance

The diadem fell gently into Dumbledore’s hand, and it was like when Evan first saw it.

Looking at the diadem in Dumbledore’s hand, Evan knew that he had succeeded. That was the power of the Elder Wand in the hand of such a great wielder, which was beyond imagination.

From the moment it had been made, it had been kept in the hands of the strongest, serving only the best wizards.

The Elder Wand had unlimited magical power. It could even successfully mend Ravenclaw’s Diadem, which was also a legendary magical item.

In Dumbledore’s hands, the crisp sound of the crown continued for a long time before gradually stopping.

The diadem still had an ordinary appearance, a simple ring with rusty spots, so low-key and unobtrusive.

“Wit beyond measure is man’s greatest treasure!”

Dumbledore carefully looked at the diadem in his hand and said with interest, “This is a magical item of extraordinary value. It used to belong to the ancient Ravenclaw family. Yes… this is not its original appearance. I can feel the magic in it… it blocks the power of the diadem itself. “

“Is it Voldemort’s power?” Evan remembered that Voldemort had used magic to transform the diadem.

“I’m afraid not,” said Dumbledore, examining the quote on the diadem. “Tom seems to have a passion for collecting Hogwarts Founders’ belongings, but the magic and Horcrux he left on it have all disappeared. This is another kind of special magic.”

“Special magic?”

“Very strange force… but powerful!” Dumbledore closed his eyes and sensed it, adding, “It’s a special seal!”

Evan couldn’t feel anything. There was still a gap between him and Dumbledore in this respect.

Ravenclaw’s Diadem was said to increase wisdom and make its wearer smarter.

Helena once stole the diadem from her mother, but ended up with nothing.

Did that mean that the sealing magic that made the diadem lose its function and original appearance was already on the diadem before it was stolen?

“Professor, what can we do to restore it to its original state?” Evan asked.

“This requires your ingenuity,” said Dumbledore with a smile, handing the diadem to Evan. “They say in legends that only the brightest people are qualified to find it and have it. It is yours now, and I hope you can unravel Ravenclaw’s secret! “

He didn’t seem to be going to help Evan solve this problem, but instead turned the topic back to Voldemort.

“Evan … about the plan you said last time. To be honest, I don’t quite agree!” Dumbledore looked at Evan over the Pensieve and said, “Because it is too dangerous, we cannot easily make a decision … but you’re right … not taking risks really won’t solve the current problem.”

He looked at Evan very seriously, his pale blue eyes shining.

Evan had had a long talk with Dumbledore after Caresius left.

He told Dumbledore the information Caresius told him, the plot of Voldemort and related plans, hoping to use the arrangement of Barty Crouch Jr. to give Harry to Voldemort in accordance with the original plot development and use his blood to help Voldemort return.

This plan was bold and straightforward. If Harry was not known to be a Horcrux, anyone who would hear this plan would think that Evan was mad, a death eater helping Voldemort; but that was the only way to completely finish Voldemort.

Only by letting Voldemort use Harry’s blood could their connection become stronger.

Harry’s mother’s Love Charm would act on both of them at the same time, protecting Harry.

As long as Voldemort was the one trying to kill him, Harry would not die, which would mean that what should be a successful attempt to kill him would end up destroying Voldemort’s Horcrux stored in his body.

Because of the connection between their souls, the whole process had to be done by Voldemort himself.

What Dumbledore needed to consider was to get Voldemort do it willingly, to kill himself…

Voldemort didn’t know that yet. He was only blindly pursuing great power, hoping to get rid of death.

But when he would become the strongest, it was also when he would be closest to death!

It was precisely after confirming Dumbledore’s thoughts that Evan dared to speak out about all these things.

Voldemort was eager to return, leaving little time for Dumbledore.

Further delay would only make Voldemort, with the power of the evil god, stronger and more difficult to deal with.

In the original book, Dumbledore finally chose to take the risk. Because this was the only way to go, he had to do it.

Despite his preparation, Harry managed to escape from Voldemort’s hands, but it was full of risk and uncertainty.

Many things had changed since Evan’s arrival, and the dangers had become greater.

From a safety perspective, Evan hoped that he and Sirius would accompany Harry.

Dumbledore had doubts about this. In the face of Voldemort, who regained all his power, even Evan and Sirius together would be no opponents of him.

He didn’t give a final reply, and it was only at this moment that he finally made up his mind.

“I can agree with the thought process behind your plan,” said Dumbledore gravely, staring at Evan. “But you have to assure me that no matter what happens, you must give priority to your safety, you and Harry. Don’t take risks…”

“I promise!” said Evan. Of course, safety was of paramount importance. If they lost their lives, everything else they’ve already done would become meaningless.

He was not Dumbledore. Just harming Voldemort might require his life, and defeating him was nothing but a dream.

Next, he and Dumbledore discussed some details.

Now that Barty Crouch Jr. was ready to start in the second task, the most likely place was under the water.

Dumbledore gave a brief account of the competition. The champions would go to the bottom of the lake to find the persons closest to them.

Evan could dive into the water and wait, or more directly, become the closest person to a champion.

Needless to say, Ron’s closest friend was Harry.

Evan intended to visit Fleur and ask her for help. It could be predicted that the whole game would be very dangerous. He wished Hermione and Gabrielle would not be part of it.
