Hogwarts becomes host

After hearing that she didn't need to take action, Elaine let out a deep breath of depression.

The weight on my shoulders became inexplicably lighter, my mood became relaxed and happy, my spirit became excited, and even the magical music no longer sounded so weird.

"You seem very happy," Dumbledore said suddenly. "You hate these people"

"Uh, not really." Elaine was stunned for a moment and replied subconsciously. "Why should I hate them? You know I don't. In short, I don't think much about these people I met for the first time. They are just strangers."

"But I'm really happy to know that I don't have to kill anyone myself." Elaine scratched her face and looked at the old principal with some embarrassment. "I know this is cowardly but I really don't want to─"

"How could that be?" Dumbledore said, narrowing his eyes. "Why do you have this idea? Respecting life is an excellent virtue. People have no right to deprive others of their lives arbitrarily. You have a good mentality."

"Even hopeless villains deserve respect and deserve to die, right" Elaine asked hesitantly. "But I'm scared. I don't want to kill these people. I don't know if it's right."

"That's strange." Dumbledore waved his hand, "I remember you attacked Quirrell without hesitation, why are you suddenly questioning yourself now?"

"──If I don't kill him, he will kill me." She was startled by Dumbledore's rhetorical question. Elaine didn't answer until she realized that the surrounding Wizengamot members seemed unable to hear them. "Under the circumstances, I had to take action first, otherwise something would happen to both Harry and Daphne."

"Then why didn't you use restraining spells, body locking spells, etc."

"That's Voldemort," Elaine replied. "If he breaks free, how can I beat him? I don't want him to take over Daphne's body and make things more troublesome."

"In that case, why are you unwilling to use the death curse when facing these prisoners?"

"Uh," the old principal's rhetorical question made Elaine stunned for a while, and she said uncertainly. "Probably, it's because they don't look dangerous and I don't think they can hurt me."

"Let's change the question. Do you think they should accept the death penalty? Or do you hate the death penalty?"

""Elaine hesitated again for a while, and this time she answered firmly. "No, what they did is worthy of several death sentences. As for the death penalty, people can escape from the prison but cannot escape from the grave. As long as the prison is made the same as the grave, then I have no special opinion."

"In that case, why are you still troubled?" Dumbledore said. "If you simply don't like killing, there is nothing wrong with letting others do it. There will always be people in the world who are willing to help you - unless it is really true. It’s up to you, but obviously, killing people is not.”

Elaine suddenly remembered the time when the old principal ordered Newt to deal with Grindelwald.

It's really convincing.

"However, suppose these guys escape and have wands, ready to attack you, Miss Greengrass and Miss Granger, will you fight back at that time?" Dumbledore continued. "Even when you know you might kill them."

"Of course I didn't care so much at that time──" Elaine replied decisively.

"Yes, you are willing to stand up and fight for your friends. How can you be cowardly with such a brave performance?" Dumbledore said happily, "Some things are so simple. You think too complicated. Be more confident and believe in yourself." Ability and belief, maybe you should try the Patronus Charm again."

"But Adair's"

"Oh, ignore him, I told you. He doesn't have much influence on you. It's you who doubts yourself." Dumbledore patted Elaine on the shoulder and encouraged. "Heart and thoughts will affect the magic. Forget about that guy and do what you want."

"Professor, this is impossible." Elaine replied with a wry smile, "He forced me to come here. He is so crazy that he wants to force me to kill these prisoners. How could I not care-"

"I'm sorry, you have some issues with Adair." Dumbledore said gently. "He asked you to come to Azkaban, and there was absolutely no way he would let you execute prisoners with your own hands. I think it would be better if you really saw the relationship between Death Eaters and Dementors are his goal, and at the same time, he also avoids Fudge’s pursuit.”

"But he asked me to be responsible for the execution──"

"You are indeed responsible for the execution, but as you have seen, we cannot let you do it."

""

Elaine still looked unbelieving, Dumbledore sighed and said.

"If he really wants to force you to kill someone, wouldn't it be better to control other Death Eaters to attack you? Or it would be too easy to attack Miss Granger and Miss Greengrass in front of you, and the targets are easy to find - Peter is at your house You’re a guest, aren’t you?”

"That's right." Elaine whispered.

"Although I have said it before, I can tell you again." Dumbledore waved his wand, forcing the Patronus to drive away the Dementors. "Don't worry about Adair, his influence is not as great as you think - compared to him, I think other people are more worthy of your attention, such as Harry or Miss Greengrass."

"Okay, I'll try but why should I care Harry"

"Hey, didn't you promise me that you would take good care of him?"

"It's impossible to take care of him this semester. It's good if we don't let the basilisk bite him." Elaine muttered, "If Snape's staring at him isn't enough, then just let Black in. It's not like Hogwarts can't." Get a dog.”

While Elaine and Dumbledore were chatting, the Wizengamot regiment had executed four Death Eaters. None of them agreed to the Ministry of Magic's request, disdaining to exchange inheritance and property for freedom, let alone betraying Voldemort.

So the Wizengamot also gave them a good time.

At this time, a sudden change occurred.

The music on the phone in Elaine's hand stopped instantly, and everyone noticed something was wrong.

In the next moment, the bars of the cell where the remaining six Death Eaters and Sirius Black were imprisoned disappeared in an instant.

The prisoners immediately jumped on the Wizengamot team with joy, especially Bellatrix. She abandoned the Wizengamot member closest to her and rushed straight towards Elaine on all fours.

A large number of dementors suddenly burst out from the front and back of the corridor and began to attack the wizards. Together with the crazy prisoners, the members of the Wizengamot were immediately in a panic.

In the chaos, the stone floor under Elaine's feet cracked without warning, like a big mouth leading to hell, swallowing her as she fell.
