Chapter 530: Chapter 530: Dumbledore: This is not a rumour!
"I remember, you sort of mentioned it before..."
"Shh…"
Before Hermione could finish, Andy made a 'shushing' gesture.
Looking at Hermione, Andy said slowly, "It's enough to know in your heart; don't say it out loud."
Hermione nodded slightly, her expression tinged with a hint of complexity.
She wasn't sure if she and Andy were thinking the same thing, but if her thoughts were true…then Harry would be quite pitiful.
"Let's talk about that dream!"
Andy said, "Last time in the cemetery, the Dark Lord and Harry traded blows..."
When he said this, Andy suddenly felt like laughing.
Voldemort must have felt shocked at the time!
"The Dark Lord immediately flew into a rage after Harry escaped."
Andy continued, "In my opinion, while he was angry with Harry for escaping, he was also venting his frustration at fate."
Hermione understood immediately, "The prophecy?"
"Exactly!"
Andy nodded and explained, "The Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries has a Hall of Prophecies, where all the prophecies since the Ministry's establishment are kept."
"The Dark Lord must want to get his hands on that."
Hermione agreed, "Professor Snape also mentioned something called the prophecy orb, and I looked it up later... Oh yes, the professor also said that the Dark Lord would plan to kill Professor Dumbledore."
Andy said, "It would be abnormal if the Dark Lord didn't want to kill Dumbledore, wouldn't it?"
Hermione: "..."
Although she knew that Andy was right, she still felt that Andy deserved a beating.
"Ahem!"
Andy coughed lightly and continued, "We all know that the Dark Lord wanted to get the second half of the prophecy, and Dumbledore must have known that too."
"But Harry still dreamed about it..."
At this, Andy was a little puzzled.
Hermione, however, suddenly had an understanding. "Andy, I understand what the Dark Lord is planning. I read in a book that the prophecy orb in the Ministry of Magic can only be activated by the person being prophesied about."
"He wants to use Harry!"
Andy: "…"
How many useless books have you read?
Well, this one was kind of useful.
"Then why doesn't he go himself?" Andy questioned.
The Department of Mysteries?
Andy could easily clear that level now!
Hermione guessed, "Maybe he doesn't want anyone to know he's alive yet."
"That makes sense,"
Andy shrugged, "But I think...the Dark Lord can't wait to see Harry again."
Hermione was taken aback. "Why do you think that?"
Andy said indifferently, "Fate and stuff...who would bow to a prophecy?"
"But he cares too much!"
"If he wants to verify something, he has to lure Harry away from Hogwarts first."
Andy's guess was based on putting himself in Voldemort's shoes.
On the surface, he felt that his fate should be in his own hands, but deep down he was extremely afraid, worrying that fate was determined by the universe and not by man.
So Voldemort must really want to verify it again!
Hermione was convinced. She frowned and said, "If that's the case, then the Dark Lord will definitely do something to make Harry leave Hogwarts."
After thinking about Harry's character, Andy sighed, "No! He just needs to trick Harry."
"I think... I kind of understand."
"The Dark Lord will first let Harry see a few real visions, just like this time. When Harry realises that he can peer into the Dark Lord's mind, he will believe it."
"Then...the Dark Lord would be able to lure Harry out."
Hermione was a little annoyed he got it first, but she also admired Andy.
"You win this time,"
Hermione snorted, "So what should we do? Just tell Harry?"
This...
Andy hesitated.
After thinking for a while, Andy nodded and said, "I'll find an opportunity to tell him!"
Before settling his family, Andy would never openly confront Voldemort.
Although, Andy was not afraid of him anymore.
But Andy had some concerns.
However, just informing Harry was not a big deal.
"Hm!" Hermione naturally had no objections.
***
Headmaster's Office.
Dumbledore was indeed deliberately trying to distance himself from Harry.
Until he is sure that Voldemort cannot peer into Harry's memories, Dumbledore will never tell Harry too many secrets and will reduce contact with Harry.
Hagrid was in charge of communicating with the Giants.
Professor Lupin is responsible for contacting the werewolf wizards scattered across the country.
These are the two things Harry knows.
It is also a test from Dumbledore.
Sitting in his office chair, Dumbledore looked at the letter in his hands with a grave expression on his face.
This is from Harry.
The letter explains that Harry recently had a dream in which Voldemort was looking for something.
It seems that object is very important.
Voldemort was very anxious and angry.
In addition, the letter mentioned the analysis of Andy and others.
After reading it for a considerable time, Dumbledore finally put the letter down.
"Tom, you finally have taken action."
Dumbledore commented with some weariness as he took off his glasses.
To prepare for the upcoming conflict, Dumbledore had been travelling a lot in recent times.
He had to win over some wizards.
He also had to establish an extensive intelligence network.
All these things had taken a lot out of Dumbledore.
After all, he was getting old.
After a moment of silence, Dumbledore finally made a decision.
In fact, Dumbledore didn't care what plot Voldemort was hatching.
After all... Voldemort couldn't defeat him!
Moreover, Dumbledore still has the Phoenix, and he can Apparate anywhere in the wizarding world.
As long as he has news of Voldemort, Dumbledore can go over there and deal with him immediately.
It's just that Dumbledore finds it difficult to kill Voldemort.
Besides, Voldemort can't be killed by anyone now.
"Tom..."
Dumbledore muttered, "Let me see just how much you've grown over the years!"
Yes! Dumbledore decided to solo Voldemort.
This battle needed to be fought.
Voldemort had brought so much fear to the wizarding world in the last war. Even today, many wizards are still afraid of Voldemort.
They don't even dare to say Voldemort's name.
As for a certain young wizard... Dumbledore was also very troubled. It was the first time he had seen someone dare to tease Voldemort.
Cough!
Now that the decisive battle was imminent, Dumbledore had to stand up and fight Voldemort.
He had to give the wizarding world hope!
As long as someone could defeat Voldemort head-on, the others would dare to fight to the death with the Death Eaters.
Who cares about the Death Eaters?
Voldemort is the key!
Fighting the Death Eaters is a fight to the death, but fighting Voldemort... that's a death warrant.
So this battle is inevitable!
There was once a rumour in the wizarding world that Dumbledore was the person Voldemort feared the most.
Now Dumbledore is going to tell the wizarding world:
It's not a rumour!
