Jon could understand Dumbledore's mentality. This extreme desire to be recognized came from a past where he was not recognized or had higher expectations. Dumbledore's mentality came from his pitiful past.
His understanding was because he had the same mentality before. He had also heard Qiao Annie say something similar before.
Just a few months ago, a drunk Joanne told him about her mentality when facing those "readers."
"Before I became an investigator, I actually wrote a few books.
They were all clumsily written stories and fairy tales. Even though the story structure was good, the sales were extremely poor.
But some people liked my stories. They were all twelve or thirteen years old, about the same age as you. They came from their own schools to find me. I met them in cheap cafes. I didn't have much money, and they didn't have much money.
They were all ordinary high school and college students. They lived young, but thought they had seen the world. They were so naive that people liked them.
At that time, I sat in the cafes with them, drinking terrible but cheap drinks.
Sometimes, I felt that it would be good if I had two rich readers. They would buy more of my books and let me make more money. But when I saw the girls in front of me, I suddenly felt that it was good. They were young and beautiful. They were willing to read my books, talk to me, and think about the next plot with me.
A pleasing situation can always make people write good stories.
The rejection I suffered in my childhood seemed to be filled by the encouragement they brought.
Do you know why I have to write Harry Potter?
Because there are many people waiting for my stories. They are still young, but they will grow up in the future. As long as they are willing to wait, I will continue to write good stories for them until one day I can't write anymore and have no more inspiration.
They gave me a response when I was at my most difficult, so I will respond to their support.
As long as there is one person who wishes that I am still there, I will definitely be there. "
This was really touching.
When Jon heard this, he only felt that Joanne had a hard time. He didn't expect to hear similar words at this moment.
But thinking about it, it was not incomprehensible. In this prosperous world, some people just wanted to be recognized.
Dumbledore was like this, Joanne was like this, and so was he.
Everyone was the same. Although the situation was different, everyone had their own choice.
Jon sympathized with Dumbledore, but he wouldn't do anything for this sympathy.
After all, Dumbledore didn't need his sympathy.
As a result, this "open and honest" conversation ended abruptly.
After Jon returned to the training ground, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have had a similar conversation with Dumbledore before.
"It's really hard to change a person through time."
He touched the pendant hanging on his chest. The magic array there turned a little bit of floating energy when he returned to the school. Obviously, it could be connected to the space of the Demon Fairy Castle at any time.
After all, the scope of the Demon Fairy Castle's function has been slowly expanding, and it is also breaking away from the restrictions of the main world. When the space is completely transformed into a derivative world, the two places in the Hogwarts and Biro Manor will become space channels, similar to wormholes. The function of the pendant in Jon's hand is to open a channel in this world, so that Jon's soul can be transferred into the channel and enter the Demon Fairy Castle.
But before that, a little protection is needed.
…
"You want to see the founder?"
Stephen, who was called early in the morning on the weekend, was not surprised when he heard the news. If it wasn't for something important, Jon wouldn't have called him over.
"Okay, I know how you're going to go, so how long will it take?"
"I'm not sure, this time I have something to do. Now in the school, only you know about the existence of my ancestor, so help me cover it up. Just say that I'm sleeping, and it's best not to let the professors come here. Once my soul leaves, it will be easy for people to find out that it's empty."
"Don't worry, I'll just do some homework or something. I'm not very busy recently, so I don't need to do anything, Fran and Scully can handle it."
"That's good."
Jon nodded, turned his head, walked back into the room, and lay down under the quilt.
His beating heart could feel the cold touch from the pendant. Jon adjusted the position of the pendant, and then took the stone piece out of his ring.
Grindelwald told him that this thing needs to be experienced and understood, but so far, he is not very proficient in using his soul to do things.
Otherwise, he would have entered the Demonic Fairy Castle by now.
His problem was very simple. Because of his lack of experience, he couldn't align the frequency of his soul. In the past, when he was summoned by Helga, or when he was led to Newengard by Grindelwald, he was forced to leave. Jon was not very proficient in using soul magic on himself, and he didn't expect to be able to get the key out so quickly.
The problem with using a key is that it is very difficult to find the frequency. If he used a big picture at home, it would be much easier to find the frequency of the space entrance, but who asked him to forget about it at that time.
So now that everything has come together, it's better to solve it together.
Fortunately, after trying for an entire night, he was almost familiar with the frequency of the key.
After connecting the frequency of his soul and the frequency of the key, Jon began to try to press the stone piece in his hand into the empty space.
The passage can't hold living things, but dead things can enter.
After successfully putting the stone piece in, Jon closed his eyes.
[Soul: Migration]
…
After staying in the passage for a long time, Jon walked out of the passage.
In front of him was the familiar floating island of the Demonic Celestial Castle. However, this floating island was much bigger than before. It felt more like a real world. The stars had also appeared in the sky. It was no longer the pitch-black void from before.
He picked up the stone piece that fell on the ground. This stone piece has become much bigger, like a piece of polished crystal, and there is a strange luster on it, which made Jon click his tongue in wonder.
The current Demonic Fairy Castle seems to have a different energy.
Although Helga is still asleep, the growth of this space is obviously calling for her promotion.
So, Jon put the stone in his arms, raised his head, and walked in the direction of the Demonic Fairy Castle.
