Chapter 64
Chapter 64 Dark Chaser De Carmona
The firewood in the fireplace burned quietly, making a “cracking” sound.
The lights in Dumbledore’s office were warm, but the atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
Ulysses couldn’t figure out the situation and dared not speak. The portraits of the principals on the wall did not make a sound, but looked at Ulysses curiously, and did not interfere with Dumbledore’s conversation with the other person.
“After so many years, you are still the same as you were back then, Professor.”
‘Marvin’ smiled and said humbly.
“You have changed a lot.”
Dumbledore’s eyes were slightly cold, “It is difficult for me to connect the former gentleman and jade student with the current you who can use evil black magic to occupy other people’s bodies.”
“That was Marvin’s voluntary choice, and perhaps for him, it was a supreme honor.”
“Marvin” chuckled softly, making Ulysses immediately put away his “humility” evaluation in his heart.
Such an arrogant and narcissistic posture made Ulysses somewhat understand the feelings of Tom Riddle in the diary when faced with the character he created.
“What are you doing back after being away for so long, Decamona? Just because Tom is dead?”
Dumbledore didn’t get too entangled in that topic, and said lightly.
“Is he really Death? I think you should be very clear, Professor.”
The tone of the person known as De Carmona has slightly fluctuated, “Although he has withdrawn from the organization, he has always been a person I admire… Otherwise, how did I get the name of the “Dark Chaser”? ”
“Come on, De Carmona, now you still have the hope of being saved. Tom has gone farther and farther to the extreme and can’t look back.”
Dumbledore said softly, but Ulysses could hear a little bit of sentimentality in it.
“Shut up Dumbledore.”
De Carmona suddenly became irritable, “I woke up from the filthy mud, and Tom saved my soul, but you? A mouthful of love and justice… Why do you dare to point fingers at me now?”
“Don’t argue with people with different visions. I taught you this truth, but now I have forgotten it myself…”
Dumbledore closed his eyes in pain, and when they opened them again, there was nothing but apathy in them.
“Don’t be so nervous, Professor.”
When the atmosphere suddenly changed, De Carmona, who was still angry, suddenly said with a smile, “Anyway, I must be unable to beat you. There is no other purpose in coming this time. I just want to see the fresh blood of the abyss. Maybe in the future. He will also have the same status as me, so it is necessary to build a good relationship in advance.”
‘Hell, this guy is not schizophrenic, right? ’
Ulysses thought with horror, and heard Dumbledore say coldly:
“When did Ulysses become a man of the abyss?”
“Sooner or later.”
De Carmona glanced at Ulysses and said meaningfully, “At this age, I can’t achieve this level. I still know a little about Marvin’s strength… Maybe even Tom can’t do it. . Ulysses Lestrange, I am looking forward to your joining.”
Ulysses sneered: “Marvin also said that your invitation will only be issued once? You broke your promise so soon?”
“Geniuses will always be treated accordingly.”
De Carmona smiled and left a sentence, “Goodbye, Professor.”
After speaking, Marvin’s strange aura disappeared, the black magic lines on his face gradually faded, and his body fell to the floor, becoming a real corpse.
The “bang” shocked the portraits of the principal who had been eavesdropping.
Dumbledore stood in place, like a sculpture. After a long time, his wand pointed out the window, and several pieces of wood flew in, forming a simple coffin, enclosing Marvin’s body.
Ulysses stood quietly on the side and did not disturb him.
Soon, the door of the principal’s office was opened, and a group of professors headed by Professor McGonagall strode in, panting slightly.
“Dumbledore…”
Professor McGonagall glanced at Ulysses strangely and spoke, only to hear Dumbledore’s tired voice:
“I know what happened, Minerva. There was something wrong with the school’s defenses. Someone sneaked into the forbidden forest, but I found it and repelled it.”
Professor McGonagall glanced at the coffin not far away, and was very skeptical of the phrase “repulse”, but he didn’t say much when he saw Dumbledore’s appearance.
It could be seen that she was very anxious, and the dressing gown was faintly exposed under the wizard robe. But since Dumbledore had spoken, it meant that the matter had been properly resolved and her heart could settle down.
After all, this old man is Hogwarts’ Dinghai Shenzhen.
“Thanks for your hard work.”
Dumbledore nodded to thank the professors.
Seeing that nothing happened, the others went back to sleep. Professor Lockhart, who looked a bit wrong, was left by Dumbledore:
“Gidro, please wait a moment.”
Professor Lockhart’s body stiffened, and he stood still on the spot nervously.
Professor Snape was the last to leave the principal’s office. Before leaving, he looked at Ulysses in doubt, and then closed the door without a glance.
There were only three people left in the room, and Professor Lockhart was still nervously guessing about Dumbledore’s intention to leave him when he heard Dumbledore’s words straightforwardly:
“To be honest, Guidro, I probably knew who you were before you coached at Hogwarts.”
With this, Professor Lockhart almost jumped up and looked at Dumbledore dumbfounded. The cold sweat instantly seeped out, and he hurriedly wanted to explain, and then heard Dumbledore say:
“I welcome everyone who has lost their way, especially you who once belonged to Ravenclaw.”
Professor Lockhart was beaming, but Dumbledore’s next words downhearted him:
“But no matter who it is, you must be punished for doing something wrong. Unfortunately, after the end of the year, you have to leave Hogwarts. After all, your past behavior has brought a lot to those innocent people. Of course, I will give you a chance to make up for it, and there is a high probability that there will be no life-threatening. What do you think?”
Professor Lockhart smiled reluctantly and said:
“It’s all your decision, principal.”
“Very well, I will tell you what is the specific thing later, now go back and rest.”
When Professor Lockhart walked out of the office vainly, only Ulysses and Dumbledore remained in the room.
Silence shrouded briefly.
Dumbledore closed his eyes, seemed to be making some kind of decision, and then slowly said:
“Ulysses, do you have a lot of doubts in your heart?”
“Yes, Professor.”
Ulysses did not deny that the last few minutes really shocked his heart.
He thought that Dumbledore should be aware of the existence of the Abyss, but he did not expect him to be so familiar with one of those in power.
“So, are you interested in hearing a story from a bad old man?”
Dumbledore looked at Ulysses in a friendly tone.
Ulysses met his gaze and spoke calmly:
“With pleasure, Professor.”
