Chapter 1316 Let me ask Dumbledore
United Kingdom, Scottish Highlands.
Somewhere in a remote area surrounded by several kinds of protective magic, Harry was waving his wand intently, practicing the Fiercefire spell he learned from Mad-Eye Moody, lighting the simple fire pit in front of him, and trying to To control the black flames and prevent Fiendfire from spreading around at will.
On Harry's left, Hermione and Ron both gripped their wands nervously, ready to use the breaking spell that Moody had taught not long ago to extinguish the Fiendfire in the fire pit.
Unfortunately, all three tried and failed.
Not long after Harry finished reciting the Fiercefire Curse, the black magic fire turned into a churning fire wave, showing signs of getting out of control, and tended to spread beyond the fire pit.
Ron and Hermione waved their wands at the same time after the black magic flame spread out of the fire pond, and used the cracking spell taught by Moody to try to suppress the out-of-control devil flame.
However, the two of them only slightly suppressed the black magic flame, but failed to stop the spread of Fierce Flame.
Finally, it was the several members of the Order of the Phoenix around the three who shot together to completely contain the churning black Fiercefire and completely extinguish it in a short time.
"Failed again."
Harry couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. This was already the third day he had practiced the Fiercefire Curse.
Unfortunately, the difficulty of advanced black magic is completely beyond imagination, and they still haven't made any progress after practicing hard.
After summoning Fiercefire, it couldn't be controlled at all. It quickly got out of control and spread wantonly, expanding and devouring everything.
Even the breaking spell practiced by Ron and Hermione had no effect on Fiendfire, as if the breaking spell was fake.
"I really don't understand why you have to learn such a dangerous black magic." Mad-Eye put away his wand, looked at the firepit burned by the magic flames, and couldn't help complaining.
Even if it was him, he was extremely afraid of that evil magic flame, let alone use it rashly, and he actually taught Harry the Fiercefire Curse, sometimes Moody wondered if he was crazy.
A few days ago, Harry, Hermione and Ron returned to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix and asked everyone to learn the Fiercefire Curse. Since then, they have taken time to practice this dangerous black magic with the three of them every day.
However, summoning Fiendfyre is actually not difficult, the real difficulty is controlling Fiendfyre. Moreover, with the gradual spread of Fiendfire, the difficulty of controlling it will further increase. Albert's behavior of letting Fiendfire burn down Malfoy Manor without spreading to the surrounding area shocked many people.
"Don't worry Harry, you've done a great job, and many dark wizards can't control Fiendfire well." Sirius stretched out his hand and patted Harry's shoulder, comforting, "At least you've been able to use it Yes, the control aspect just needs to take time to practice and it will be fine.”
"Shut up Sirius, do you know how many stupid dark wizards in the past were burned to death by your own fire?"
Moody glared at Sirius, motioned him to shut up, and then turned his head to Harry and said, "If you don't have a few of us present, don't try to practice the Fiercefire Curse, once Fiendfire gets completely out of control, the consequences will be disastrous. "
After finishing speaking, Moody looked sideways at Hermione and Ron, "And you two, you must concentrate when using the cracking spell, otherwise it will be difficult for you to suppress and extinguish Fiercefire."
"That is very advanced black magic after all."
Lupine said something fair, it is obviously unrealistic to expect Harry to master it in a short period of time, not to mention that Harry is not good at black arts.
Even for them, it is difficult to master the Fiercefire Curse in a short period of time.
"Do you think Albert has the trick to use the Fiercefire Curse? The Malfoy Manor was burned down by him with the Fiendfire." Ron muttered. He didn't forget that Moody and the others mentioned it after the meal. and this matter.
If Albert is willing to teach them, the progress of the three mastering the Fiercefire Curse may be faster.
"We don't have any evidence to prove that the Fiendfire at Malfoy Manor was related to Albert." Hermione reminded impatiently.
"Besides him, do you think anyone else has the ability to do that, Mysterious Man?" Ron asked back, "Don't be silly Hermione, some things don't need proof at all, because people who really have that ability There are not many wizards in the entire wizarding world."
"Everything must be based on evidence."
Hermione was quite dissatisfied with this. She felt that Ron was completely unreasonable, and directly blamed Albert for that matter, just because he had the ability to do that?
Absurd.
Ron shrugged his shoulders and stopped entangled with Hermione about this matter, so as not to have a quarrel between the two parties and make the relationship stalemate.
"Harry, did you learn the Fiercefire Curse to use it against the mysterious person?" Kingsley felt that using the Fiercefire Curse to deal with the mysterious person was very unreliable.
The other members of the Order of the Phoenix also pricked up their ears to listen.
"Of course not, I was never stupid enough to think that the Mysterious Man could be defeated by relying on the Fierce Fire Curse."
After experiencing the double influence of Albert and Dumbledore, Harry still has this self-knowledge.
"Black magic is the field that the mysterious person is good at. It is wishful thinking to want to defeat the other party in the field that the other party is good at."
"Then why are you..." Kingsley hesitated to speak.
"If possible, I don't want to use this dangerous spell, but we need to use it as a backup plan to ensure the smooth completion of the next plan."
"It seems that you have a big plan next." Kingsley said, looking into Harry's eyes.
"Sorry, we need to keep this matter secret for the time being."
"Confidential?"
Sirius exchanged glances with the others, "keep secret" they had heard countless times.
"Before the plan starts, we need to be fully prepared, because there is only one chance, and failure is absolutely not allowed."
Harry had a helpless face. He could see that everyone was very curious about what the three of them wanted to do, especially after he started learning the Fiercefire Curse, everyone was even more worried and completely lacked trust in him.
Harry really wanted to tell them that he was no longer a child, and that their worrying more would only be counterproductive and completely meaningless.
But in the face of everyone's concerned eyes, Harry still couldn't speak out.
"Are you planning to break into Gringotts?"
Sirius remembered that Harry asked Bill to help him pay attention to the goblin, and the only person who could contact the goblin was Gringotts.
After all, the three of Harry went to Hogwarts not long ago. Although they don't know what they were going to do, everyone suspected that they were looking for something.
"Maybe, if necessary."
Harry looked at Sirius, with a helpless wry smile on his face, "Random guessing is meaningless at the moment. If our plan goes well, it won't take too long to complete the task assigned by Dumbledore."
"Sorry Harry, I was... just too worried."
Sirius caught Harry's gaze and realized that he seemed to have made a stupid mistake.
"I know, but... until we complete the task, it is best not to let the mysterious person know what we are doing, otherwise all the efforts of Dumbledore during his lifetime will become meaningless."
"All this is to defeat the mysterious man."
After Harry looked away, he tried to change the topic and shift everyone's focus.
"I think you can work harder on other people and teach them the knowledge of defense against the black arts. Sooner or later we will have a battle with the mysterious man and his minions. At that time, we will not be able to fight alone. We still need everyone's support. If everyone If the level of defense against black magic can be improved step by step, the number of casualties will definitely be greatly reduced."
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and realized that they should not continue to ask questions.
"Okay, let's go back, I think you should be hungry!"
Lupine tried to ease the atmosphere. He felt that there was a reason why Dumbledore didn't want to reveal too many secrets to them. Everyone continued to explore, not only distrusting Harry, but also distrusting Dumbledore.
Even if Dumbledore is dead.
…
"Harry, are you okay!"
After returning to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, Hermione looked at the emotionally unstable Harry slightly uneasy.
"I'm fine, Hermione." Harry shook his head.
"You don't look like you're okay." Ron muttered and pushed a piece of chocolate to Harry. "Eat something, maybe you'll feel better."
"no thank you."
"Everyone is just too worried about you." Hermione tried to reassure Harry, "especially after you plan to master the dangerous black magic of the Fiendfliner Curse. To be honest, I never had the courage to use the Fiendfliner Curse in my life."
"Of course I know they are harmless and trustworthy, but do you know that as long as they are accidentally caught, a simple Legilimency or Veritaserum can knock their heads open and make all our efforts pay off?" of running water."
"Harry..." Hermione looked disturbed.
"So, some things are not suitable for too many people to know."
Don't they even know this?
Harry believed that the members of the Order of the Phoenix couldn't be that stupid, but Sirius and his gang were still trying to figure out what the three of them were doing.
why?
Worry?
I'm afraid more curiosity and distrust!
After all, Dumbledore was dead, and things were a little different.
It's like when they were in Grimmauld Place, they used their telescopic ears to eavesdrop on what was being discussed in the Phoenix meeting.
Everyone seems to have an endless curiosity to figure out what the **** they're doing.
It's just that the roles of the two parties have now been reversed.
The repeated temptations made Harry feel amused and helpless.
He suddenly understood Albert's impatience back then, and also understood why he would rather set up a Defense Association by himself than join the Order of the Phoenix.
Yeah, he finds it troublesome.
Of course, Sirius also sent a message to ask Albert about this, but he was ignored.
"We can't take risks, especially when we are very close to success." Harry said softly, "There is no room for failure, you know."
Harry's words were not only for Hermione and Ron, but also for other people who might be eavesdropping on their conversation.
"time to eat."
There was a knock on the door, and Ginny's voice came.
"coming."
Ron responded, and made a let's go gesture to the two of them.
"Mrs. Weasley."
Harry just entered the kitchen and saw a familiar figure, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Sorry for worrying you."
Mrs. Weasley put down the cauldron full of stewed potatoes and gave Harry a big hug.
Today's dinner was very rich, and everyone had a great time.
After dinner, Mrs. Weasley took Harry to the kitchen alone, and wanted to have a word with him.
Sure enough, it was about the Fiendfire Curse.
Mrs. Weasley hopes that Harry will not continue to do those risky things. After all, there is Albert who is far more capable than them, and he, Hermione, and Ron are not needed to work hard.
Facing Mrs. Weasley's gaze, Harry couldn't help but smiled wryly, "Some things cannot be escaped, even if I am willing to hide, because the mysterious man is unwilling to let me go. So, I can only face it, I don't want to die on the run, that would be a disgrace."
"But Albert..."
"Albert is also trying his best to help, but this is my personal grievance with ... the mysterious man, and I can't escape." Harry's calm tone made Mrs. Weasley feel uneasy, "I will eventually meet with the mysterious man." There is a decisive battle, and it is destined that only one person can survive, so I will not escape, nor can I escape, because those who are weak and escape will inevitably meet death."
Mrs Weasley opened her mouth slightly.
"I won't lose, please trust me."
Honestly, Harry had forgotten how many times he had said this, but he knew he had to say something.
"I believe."
While Mrs. Weasley was holding Harry back, Mad-Eye Moody, Kingsley and Sirius took Hermione and Ron to the classroom in the name of teaching them how to break the curse .
No way, Harry has changed a lot recently.
He seems to have become less concerned about many things, and only Dumbledore's mission is on his mind.
“We promised to keep it secret, and there’s no point in speaking out now.”
Facing the questioning gazes of several people, Hermione closed her brain as much as possible, and replied blankly, "Harry said a long time ago that the fewer people know, the better."
"I don't know what your plans are, but Harry actually started to learn the dangerous black magic like the Fiercefire Curse." Kingsley hesitated for a moment and said, "You should know exactly how dangerous that kind of magic is."
In fact, apart from Mad-Eye who knows how to use the Fiendfyre Curse, other members of the Order of the Phoenix will not try to use the Fiendfyre Curse, even to prevent Fiercefire from getting out of control, so many people are there to help you know how dangerous Fiercefire is.
"I think you should focus more on training everyone's defense against the dark arts. After we complete the task assigned by Dumbledore, there will inevitably be a battle between Harry and the Mysterious Man. At that time, we will be the final winners no matter what, but Harry needs more helpers, unless you want to deal with the mysterious man's minions alone." Hermione took a deep breath and said to the people around, "Also, it's not that Harry doesn't want to tell you, but Dumbledore thinks More people knowing the secret won't do any good to solve the problem, and you just don't know what your mission is."
A group of people were left speechless by Hermione's words, and finally turned and left silently.
"Are you saying that what I just said may have gone too far." Hermione looked anxiously at Ron beside her.
"No." Harry came out of nowhere, "Thank you Hermione, I've always wanted to tell them."
"You're welcome."
Hermione suddenly panicked.
"Sometimes I even feel that they are like me a few years ago. They don't understand anything, just trying to learn something from Dumbledore, and they don't hesitate to mess things up." Harry smiled wryly. "It's no wonder Albert doesn't like to deal with them. They always only think they are right."
"Don't blame them Harry," said Hermione.
"I don't blame them, I just feel tired because they are looking for your own good." Harry shook his head, "Maybe, I should have asked Dumbledore if he could tell them the secret."
"Harry!"
Both Hermione and Ron looked a little disturbed. As Harry's friends, they could feel the change in Harry more than anyone else.
That's calm madness.
He was ready to die with Voldemort.
"What's the matter, Ginny?"
Harry turned to look at the girl standing outside the door.
"Mum baked some hash browns, do you want to come out and have some?" Ginny asked, looking at Harry.
"Oh, here we come," said Ron.
"Is there a portrait of Dumbledore here?" Harry asked suddenly after sitting down next to Ginny.
"Harry, what do you want Dumbledore's portrait for?" Sirius asked suspiciously.
"I know you are very curious about what we are doing recently, so I plan to ask Dumbledore's opinion first, and if Dumbledore agrees, I will tell you." Harry took a bite of the potato pancakes covered with tomato sauce, Said calmly.
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly fell into a terrible silence.
