Harry Potter’s Defense Professor

Chapter 299 Like the first sight

Anything, in the process of development, will be divided into factions, or conservative and stable or radical and crazy. There are also two factions among ancient wizards. The distinction between black and white magic begins from there. At first, there is no distinction between good and evil.

Black magic has changed from the most simple ascetic to self-mutilation. The method of making Horcruxes is probably the most extreme type of it - destroying one's own body and even soul by the most violent means, and pursuing the great after Dashe. Yes, I hope to exchange the greatest power for the greatest price and become a powerful wizard in one fell swoop.

The reason why some people are willing to try extreme methods is because although these methods are expensive, some of them do work, at least for the method of making Horcruxes. With the gradual evolution of the times, the system of strengthening oneself by normal means has gradually been established and perfected, and fewer and fewer people are willing to use black magic, which has gradually become a heresy or even illegal in the wizarding world.

And the Elder Wand—greatly accelerated the entire Horcrux-making process and eased the pain, although Lockhart still nearly passed out in pain.

Whether it's passing out, letting go of the wand, or ending a spell... Even if you fail to make a Horcrux, the backlash will hurt or even kill the try. Lockhart was almost tossed to death when he made one Horcrux. How did Voldemort manage to make seven Horcruxes and not die? Did he cut the pain nerve, but this is pain in the soul... Could it be that his soul is extremely unstable and easily split?

Lockhart couldn't imagine, and wasn't ready to make a second Horcrux.

He stood up weakly, wiped the saliva and sweat from his face, used his wand to dry his sweat-soaked clothes, walked over to the bed, and opened the drawer.

The door banged open again, and Hermione rushed in with her wand in a panic.

"Oh - Gilderoy, what's wrong with you, I heard you screaming just now!" she said nervously: "Your face is so pale, are you alright..."

"It's nothing, look here." Lockhart found Mad Eye's artificial eye, which was carefully placed in a crystal box. A date is marked on it: September 3, 1997.

It was the day Mad Eye was killed, at least twenty Aurors sacrificed that day. Even the prosthetic eye of this legendary Auror was used as a trophy - it was the glory of the Death Eaters, and Moody had killed and captured no less than twenty Death Eaters over the years, but in the end he fell. under the rod of the Death Eaters.

"This is a mad eye..." The artificial eye was still turning flexibly in the crystal box. Hermione's tears were about to linger again.

Hermione held back her tears, but Lockhart couldn't hold it back, and his tears flowed all at once. He still remembered the first time he saw Moody's fake eyes and was so frightened:

18 years old,

Lockhart, who graduated from Hogwarts with an almost straight-ahead score, was full of confidence. He thought he was strong enough. Thinking that he was good enough, that he was unscrupulous enough to adapt to this emerging profession under the policies of old Barty Crouch. So in August 1981, two months before Voldemort's first death, when Death Eaters were still rampant in the wizarding world, when batters and law enforcement were busy with their hands, and the Auror department was expanding, Lockhart Walked into the Auror application office.

A broken table full of application forms, two armchairs, and, of course, an examiner. His face is full of wounds, and one eye is normal. The other eye was a little strange. There was a fake eyeball inlaid in the pirate-like eye patch hole. Of course, Lockhart, who often read newspapers, recognized it. This was Alastor Moody.

It was such a legendary Auror who came to be the examiner! Lockhart suddenly became nervous, controlling every bit of his consciousness, warning himself that every step here could be a test.

At the time, Moody casually flipped through the data and began to ask questions. As for the questions he asked himself, they had long since disappeared into the ocean of memory over the past ten years, but Lockhart still remembers the first and last questions. It was even exceptionally clear, like the dewdrops rolling on the grass in the morning reflecting the sunlight.

"Why do you want to be an Auror?" Moody asked Lockhart.

"I hope I can stand up to the evil Death Eaters. Capture the Dark Lord with my own hands and protect the peace of the wizarding world," Lockhart replied calmly, a question that had flashed through his mind countless times. "And I think I fit every point of the hiring."

【…】

The memory of the last question is clearer, as if it were in sight. Moody put down Lockhart's application: "Will you sell your mother to a brothel?"

of course not! He still remembered the fire in his stomach at that time, but his reason told him that he couldn't answer that.

"Normally, no," said Lockhart quietly, who had been acting since he was a child. "But if it is for the greater good, I will do whatever it takes."

There is no doubt that Lockhart has done a great deal of preparation. Perfect - at least thought it answered every Moody's question perfectly. So when Moody closed his profile, Lockhart knew he must have been accepted.

Then Moody's next move immediately wiped out the image of Tarzan that Lockhart had been trying to maintain without changing his face. Trying to get the fake eye off completely.

buckle down.

down.

down.

Come.

Lockhart stood up at that moment, and a second later he realized that he had lost his way before sitting back reluctantly.

"Hahaha—" Moody's undisguised sarcastic laughter seemed to be still in his ears. For the next three years, such sarcastic laughter accompanied Lockhart until he finished training and resolutely resigned from pride. Luo department resigned...

Moody held his prosthetic eye in his right hand and a glass of water on the table in his left, soaking the prosthetic eye in it, and rubbing it as carefully as a favorite, while young Lockhart endured the horrific look. Disgusting watching this scene...

"Very good, starting tomorrow, you and I will start training."

——

Now, the man who said it is dead, the fake eye that once startled Lockhart, lying quietly in the crystal box, gurgling in it.

No one will call him "Little Gilderoy" again with affection and playfulness, no one will laugh at him for being timid.

Seeing things and thinking about people, Lockhart burst into tears, crying like a child, without any scruples...until Hermione hugged him.

"Gidro... don't be sad, Mad Eye is dead, and you have already avenged him..." Hermione could hold back her tears, but now she can only cry with her lover. "Come on, Harry and the others are still waiting downstairs."

Lockhart had never been so vulnerable in front of her eyes, but he had a more complete image and gave her a sense of security.

"No, there is still a long way to get revenge..." Lockhart stopped his tears and put Moody's artificial eye and the crystal box into the space bag, "You will always be with me, Is it right."

"Of course!" The girl answered decisively.

So Lockhart hugged Hermione tightly and kissed her again. Then he returned to normal, wiped away his tears, and said coldly, "Let's go."

The two passed the two corpses on the ground and left the room, Hermione didn't dare to look at them from beginning to end.

——

[Moody finally has a basically complete image from the role that has no role in the original book, so pay tribute to this legendary Auror.

There are still some things that need to be made clear in advance. Making a Horcrux has at least the following sequelae:

1. Emotions are more likely to get out of control, which has already started from this chapter.

2. Lockhart's brain may be even more difficult to use because his IQ is normal or even high, but his IQ is mainly related to his ability to think logically and has nothing to do with whether he is smart or not. also got worse.

3. His restraint on some ** is even worse... It may be blackened for a while, but eventually he will find a way to return to normal.

4. Decreased resistance to mental and spiritual attacks.

I hope readers don't ask why Lockhart's personality has changed so much before and after. The soul is split. If it can be as usual, it will be abnormal. Look at Voldemort, what a shrewd person he turned out to be like a lunatic.
