Fleevy could not help but look up from beside Allen's leg. "Allen, you …"
Allen smiled at Fleevy to comfort him. Then, he said in a low voice, "Tom grew up in a dark orphanage and lived with Muggle without knowing anything about the magic world. He gradually discovered his special ability and learned how to use magic to tease those who bullied him. When he was 11 years old, he learned that he was a wizard. After entering Hogwarts, Tom was an excellent student and was liked by all the teachers except for Dumbledore. He became the president of the boys' union and was recognized as one of the smartest and most talented students in Hogwarts. He successfully recruited many pure-blood wizards as his followers in the best magic academy as a mixed-blood wizard. I think this in itself proves his charm and excellent leadership skills. I think everyone who experienced the first wizard war knows better than me about his talent in magic. After graduation, he tried to apply for the position of Defense Against Black Magic Professor several times, but he was rejected every time."
"What are you trying to say, you egomaniac?" Ben Bostel could not help but curse. Paul Greengrass also said, "Professor Harris, this sounds familiar. Are you trying to imply that you …?"
Dumbledore stepped in front of them and said, "Professor Harris, I know you are not Mystic, so please restrain yourselves. If you think I did something wrong, please come out and say it. This is a board meeting, and you have the right to do so. We can discuss other issues later."
"Thank you, Headmaster. But as far as I know, Headmaster Dumbledore, you always paid extra attention to Tom when he was in school. It's not like Professor Pomona Sprout's concern for students. Instead, you ignored Tom most of the time when he was growing up, just like how he asked to go to Diagon Alley to buy things before he entered the school. As an adult, how could you allow a child who grew up in the Muggle world to do that …" Alan shook his head in disagreement.
"It's Abusi's fault for this." As a member of the Magical Law Enforcement Department, Amelia Burns was a little disgusted with Allen's inability to get the point. "But that person did evil long after graduation. I don't think not bringing a little wizard to Diagon Alley and letting him go shopping will make him a The Dark Lord."
"Everyone has all kinds of insecurities hidden deep in their hearts. People will not only feel nervous and afraid in the face of danger, but when danger appears, they can also predict the consequences of the danger in advance and try to prevent it from happening." Allen continued to analyze, making it seem like he was teaching everyone a lesson. "This is the research conclusion of an Austrian psychiatrist in Muggle's world. He believes that the pursuit of love is often used to fight anxiety, and this is a way to gain a sense of security. Professor Dumbledore, I think this is similar to your recent advocacy. Emphasizing that love is the most powerful force? When people can't get love, they will use another way to gain a sense of security, and that is money, prestige, and power. Winning love can give you a sense of satisfaction in the process of contact with others, thus eliminating the sense of insecurity. Obtaining those worldly possessions means that you can gain a sense of security by relaxing your contact with others and standing on the commanding heights. "
"It seems that the Muggle world is the same as us. They have also carried out research in the field of the mind. From a non-magical point of view, to a certain extent, it just makes up for the shortcomings of us wizards." Dumbledore nodded in agreement. "Yes, Professor Harris. Just like when I was teaching you, I believe that the most powerful force in the world is love. I'm sorry that Tom can't understand this. I think you and I both understand the reason. This is a side effect of the Memory of Enchantment. Of course, I could have done better on his path of growth, but I didn't know this at the time."
"The Memory of Enchantment is indeed a good reason to comfort yourself, but not all of the descendants produced by this potion become dark wizards. Why is that? Tom has never experienced the love of a father or mother since he was young. Here, not only do they represent his birth parents, but they are also the most important guides in a person's growth. In Tom's life, he has two most important father figures. One is his birth father, Tom Liddell, and the other is Principal Albus Dumbledore. " Allen paused for a moment after he finished speaking, letting the audience think of something like, "The second The Dark Lord treats the greatest light wizard as his father?" Dumbledore continued, "The person Tom admired the most was his birth father, Old Tom. Dumbledore, just like how you would know if someone lied to you. I used similar methods to find out some things. When he entered the school, he told you that if his mother was a wizard, she would be able to use magic to protect herself from death. So, he thought that his mother was a Muggle and his father was a great wizard. But in the end, things didn't go as he wished. He found out that his father was just a Muggle who had abandoned his mother, and his mother was a weak witch. This was a reversal of his outlook on life, and the illusion he had built collapsed.
In the audience, Harry's face turned red. He thought that although Allen did not say it explicitly, the information must have been found out from his brain. This made him very annoyed at his own stupidity when it came to Brain Occlusion.
"After this, let's talk about how you, Dumbledore, caused the birth of the Dark Lord." Allen announced, "Tom's attitude towards you, Headmaster … Apart from being confrontational, Tom's personality is eager to be recognized by people with a higher status than himself. And you, Dumbledore, are the person that Tom has been using as a comparison. You witnessed his most difficult time in the orphanage. For the first time in his life, he was able to temporarily listen to your teachings even though you used threats. It was you who gave him money so that he could buy the necessities for school and gave him the opportunity to leave the orphanage and enter the world of magic. This is also the person that he wants to challenge and gain his recognition the most.
Tom rejected the opportunity to join the Ministry of Magic after graduation. At that time, many people felt that it was a pity, but the most fundamental reason was that you, Professor Dumbledore, had also rejected the opportunity to become the Minister of the Ministry of Magic many times. You once said that the position in the Ministry of Magic was not attractive to you. In Tom's opinion, even the position of the highest level in the Ministry of Magic was something that you disdained. If he wanted to challenge you, he naturally would not be satisfied with that. That's why he was so obsessed with becoming a professor in the Hogwarts … "
After saying that, Allen took another puff from his hookah. The disgust he exhaled was the scene when Tom Liddell came to the Hogwarts for the second time to seek the position of Defense Against Black Magic. In other words, he was willing to give himself and his talents completely to Dumbledore for this position. Dumbledore had directly rejected him.
"This is the last straw that I believe pushed Tom Riddle into the abyss. Speaking of which, Harry's fate is somewhat similar to that of Tom. Some of you may know that Tom Riddle and Harry Potter's wands are twins, but it's not just a wand. Most of the time, the wand can reflect the wielder's true self. Similar to the wand, Tom and Harry have very similar lives … But the result is as any wizard who has studied the art of wands would know. The purple wood is the same as the East Green wood. One symbolizes death and darkness, while the other symbolizes life and light …
Before entering the Hogwarts, Harry and Tom were treated similarly, but after entering the Wizarding World, Dumbledore treated him differently from how he treated Tom. He treated him kindly. After entering the Wizarding World, Harry quickly learned about the greatness of his parents. His mother was an excellent student, and his father was an excellent ball seeker. Hagrid, Sirius, Lupin, and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley filled Harry's need for a parental image. Mrs. Weasley would knit sweaters for us children, and Sirius would become his godfather. During the holidays, he would stay with Harry at Aunt Muggle's house. Lupin would also help Harry recall bits and pieces of his parents … Finally, Dumbledore, you were also one of Harry's parental images. You would use something that you never gave to Tom to guide Harry in the direction you wanted him to go … Perhaps this was due to the guilt you felt for teaching Tom, but in Harry, in me, I admit that you have become more attentive and gentle than the memory I saw of you …
Let's go back to Tom, Purple Robe … "
"Then, Professor Harris, why can't you listen to Abusi's guidance? Why are you so resistant to him? " Mag couldn't help but interrupt Allen. "Abusi has been very tolerant of you for so many years. He even gave in when you taught your students. He thinks that as long as you don't teach necromancy, he won't do anything even if he doesn't approve of it … Just like what I told you before, why are you so insistent on teaching dangerous magic at a time like this?"
"Because Professor Harris thinks that I'm hindering the development of the wizarding world and harming the interests of the wizarding world. I'm sorry, Mileva, for putting you between us. Both Professor Harris and I are doing what we think is right …" Dumbledore finally spoke after a long silence. He made a mischievous joke. "It's a pity that he doesn't see me as his father. Otherwise, I think many things can be solved more satisfactorily."
Allen, who was forced to stop speaking, bowed to the presidents of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw one after another. "I'm sorry, Professor Mag, Professor Fleevy, but the conflict between Dumbledore and I is not like a personal grudge … but it can't be resolved."
"Then, Professor Harris's opinion on our education is very constructive and enlightening. I admit that I'm more responsible for Tom than I thought … So I've decided to resign after next year … I'm sorry, Professor Harris, I don't agree with your radical ideas on the reform of magic education, but I'm happy to accept some of your views on education. I will give my proposal for the position of principal to Mileva. I believe that with her ability, she can reform the education in a more stable way to solve some of these problems and make the wizarding world a better place. We've wasted too much time on these problems, so let's get back to the topic …" Dumbledore began to applaud Allen's words. He simply admitted his mistake and didn't want to dwell on this matter anymore. He turned around and said, "Board members, regarding the continuation of the ancient magic class, you can vote now."
