The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 690
A trace of panic flashed across Voldemort's pale snake face, but it was fleeting, and he covered up the panic at a faster speed.

From the second Harry Potter "resurrected from the dead", panic has enveloped the Dark Lord's heart.

Voldemort couldn't figure it out: this time there was no one to protect Harry Potter and sacrifice for him, why he could escape his killing curse like that night 16 years ago.

Also, if Harry Potter didn't die, why didn't his Cruciatus Curse work on him, and why didn't he hear his heart-wrenching screams.

The Dark Lord couldn't figure it out, he had too many doubts.

And after Ada mentioned that the only people who fell were Death Eaters, a wave of fear flooded Voldemort's body, and he remembered the pain of being stripped of his body, which was more painful than anything else.

The most unbearable thing is the days and nights after being stripped, worse than ghosts, worse than the humblest wandering soul... no body, no mana, nothing.

"Looks like you remembered."

Ada's voice was light and ethereal, but it escalated the fear in Voldemort's heart, the fear of death - he no longer had a Horcrux, and now he was just a mortal with a mortal body.

"Yeah, you fell on the same spell again. Passive Resistance, Love Charm, call it what you want." Ada went on, "A very, very old spell that doesn't even have a book. It is clearly recorded in ancient books, but it is the most powerful defensive spell in the world."

Voldemort's scarlet eyes narrowed. He said, "What are you trying to say? Are you saying that Potter, like his Mudblood mother, sacrificed himself to protect others? That's noble!"

Voldemort never understood what love is, he never loved anyone, nor was he truly loved by anyone.

Old Tom Riddle didn't love Merope Gaunt, their "love" was an accident; Make any effort to live, let your life come to an end.

His parents didn't love him, the orphanage didn't love him, the Death Eaters didn't love him...

Perhaps only Bellatrix has love for him, but no one can tell whether it is a twisted love or a pathological worship.

If you don't know what love is, you don't understand the greatness of love.

Voldemort did not hesitate to kill Lily, even though his loyal servant Snape begged him; Voldemort did not hesitate to point his wand at the infant Harry, even though Lily begged him to He spared Harry.

So, his loyal servant became Dumbledore's spy; so, his Killing Curse bounced back, ripping his fragile soul out of his body.

And today, at Hogwarts and Hogsmeade, Voldemort has once again neglected love, allowing himself to repeat the same mistakes.

"Yes, a noble choice, a great choice." Ada said, "In order to protect everyone from you, in order to defeat you, Harry chose to 'sacrifice' himself and send himself to your knife .”

Voldemort laughed, grim and insane, echoing through the silence of the Great Hall.

"Sacrifice again, love again, childishness, stupidity!" cried Voldemort. "He's not dead! No sacrifice!"

"Of course he won't sacrifice!" Ada's voice over Voldemort's shout.She continued: "Because someone protected him, Harry was protected like he was that night 16 years ago."

Voldemort stopped suddenly, stopped circling, and shouted, "Impossible, absolutely impossible! I killed that Mudblood with my own hands, and Albus Dumbledore was killed by me!"

"Whoever said that the person who protects Harry can only be Lily, and only Dumbledore." Ada smiled on his face, as if he had heard some funny joke.

She went on to say, "You are the one who protects Harry!"

"You nonsense!" screamed Voldemort, and Ada's reassurance, instead of making him understand everything, made him more confused.

"That night in Godric's Hollow, the rebound of the spell stripped your soul. You just wanted to escape, but you didn't notice that a fragment of your soul was left there, attached to the only living thing in the building. I Think you understand what I'm saying, Tom."

Scarlet eyes turned to Harry, staring at him intently.

Unbelievable, Voldemort knew for the first time that Harry was actually a Horcrux he had inadvertently created, but he destroyed it with his own hands.

However, there was much more that Voldemort didn't know.He thought it was the Horcrux that protected Harry and counteracted his Killing Curse, but Voldemort didn't know that besides him, Ada also gave Harry a layer of protection.

The double protection from the two demon kings made Harry Potter survive under the killing curse again.As for where Harry went and who he met during the period of suspended animation, Ada didn't know.

Voldemort's pupils narrowed into two narrow slits, like a poisonous snake about to attack.

"And it all started with that prophecy, Tom," Ada went on, "and if you ignore that prophecy, it's just a prophecy, a charlatan's gimmick. But you don't doubt it." , and put it into action, the prophecy will come true, and you have set yourself an enemy in destiny with your own hands."

Ada once imagined what would happen to the wizarding world if Snape hadn't overheard Trelawney's prophecy, or hadn't told Voldemort the content of the prophecy, or Voldemort hadn't taken the prophecy seriously.

First of all, Voldemort, who doesn't believe (doesn't know) the prophecy, will not go to Godric's Hollow, nor will he trouble the Potters, let alone be hit by the rebounding Killing Curse, losing his body and mana.

In this way, the dark cloud of terror hanging over the British wizarding world will not dissipate, and the bloody reign of Voldemort and the Death Eaters will continue.

In terms of universal theory, it will take at least ten years for Harry, who has both parents, to grow up to be "a person capable of defeating the Dark Lord".

And these ten years are enough for Voldemort to do many terrible things, and it is not impossible to truly unify England.

Of course, there are no ifs and ifs in the world. Trelawney's prophecy was tailor-made for Voldemort, poking at his weakness and making him desperate to kill the child in the prophecy.

Even if the child has just been born, it cannot shake the Dark Lord's rule, let alone bring him a direct threat.

Voldemort's chest was heaving violently, the hand holding the wand was trembling, and the majestic magic power was gathering bit by bit.

Everything in the past 16 years has been torn apart and crushed in front of him. If Voldemort still can't understand the reason for his failure, it means that the stupid people are not Voldemort, but everyone in the magical world.

The twilight of the morning light became brighter and brighter, a golden-red light burst out from the magic ceiling above the head, and a round of dazzling and dazzling red sun gradually rose.

The red sun is rising, and its way is bright!
After experiencing the deepest night, the sunlight was a bit dazzling, and Ada narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she couldn't accept the coming light.

At this moment, Voldemort's high-pitched voice sounded, carrying the last hope in his heart: kill!Kill Esmeralda Drizzt!Kill Harry Potter!kill them all!
"Avada Kedavra!"

The light of the Killing Curse suddenly lit up, and the green light overwhelmed the red sun climbing into the sky.
