After Jon said this, Najini's face revealed an expression of 'I knew it's the case'.
"I knew you'd say that, but it's useless to me. Credence is dead. He wanted me to live, but what's the point of me living alone?"
She was a little agitated. "Instead of living like a zombie, I might as well just die."
"That's not what I meant."
Jon patted his head. "That's because I want to talk to you about this. You probably know that Credence isn't dead. When he died, Teacher kept his soulfire.
Even though he kept it for the sake of dealing with Dumbledore, it was still preserved. All these years, Credence's soulfire has been burning in the Dark Forest. Not long ago, Teacher held a resurrection ceremony for him, and now he's recuperating in a new place? "
Although these words sounded deceptive, Najini still abruptly raised his head and displayed a serious expression of stubbornness.
"Is that so? Then can I see him? "
"See him … That's not impossible, but how are you going to do it?
Even though I can help you suppress the snake with my Serpentine voice, you still have to show yourself around Voldemort. He values you a lot. "
"He doesn't value me. He just wants to turn this snake into his soul armament. But using a living creature as a soul armament is too dangerous. He hasn't found a foolproof method yet. Otherwise, I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you right now."
Even though she was mocking herself, she had to admit that Jon was right.
Because of its importance, Voldemort wouldn't let it go too far away from him.
Recently, the Ministry of Magic had more or less the upper hand. Voldemort was also willing to hide in the shadows, so she could come to this house to see Jon. To be honest, Voldemort had originally planned to put it here.
After all, there was no better place to hide a giant python than an abandoned house.
"I'm not in a hurry, there's still plenty of time. Once Voldemort converts it into a soul artifact, its power will weaken even further. Although this state is irreversible, I'll also have a bit more autonomy."
"When this is over, I'll do what I promised you. I can help you free, but … if you can see Credence again, would you be willing to come back to life?"
… …
After the meeting, Najini disappeared.
The snake's soul was sleeping under the control of the Serpentine voice, so there was no need to worry about it.
Comparatively speaking, the little girl standing behind him was a bigger problem.
But this wasn't the place to talk. Since they already knew each other, it was best to leave first.
Chown looked around and found a place where they could talk. Then, he brought Hermione over.
"Ask if you have any questions. Since I chose to bring you out today, I will definitely answer all of your questions. Don't be shy, just say it. "
Hermione pondered for a moment.
"Teacher." This was the first time she had addressed Dumbledore as her teacher. "Actually, Professor Dumbledore never cared about Voldemort at all, right?"
"You can't say that. Voldemort is indeed a very talented Black Wizard. At least when you were born, Voldemort was still very powerful. After all, no matter what, he's still the successor of Slythrin."
"But from what I see now, I don't think so."
She said, "You didn't take Voldemort seriously either. The only reason you brought me here today was to let me see the snake that's following Voldemort.
In fact, Voldemort wasn't the main character in your conversation. I thought you wanted to use him to keep Voldemort in check.
But now it seems that I was wrong. "
In the past, Hermione would never have said Voldemort's name so brazenly like she did now. So, it was as she said, in this short meeting, she had changed a lot.
It was a fundamental change in her mentality.
But this couldn't be helped. People had to go through this kind of situation. It was impossible to not change just because you said so. After all, that wasn't realistic.
Especially after witnessing all this with her own eyes.
Jon was her teacher now, and what the Student Union did was completely dependent on the teacher's attitude. With Jon's current attitude towards Voldemort, there was naturally no way to have any other influence on Hermione.
"I told you a long time ago.
Voldemort isn't the person we want to fight against, nor is he our ultimate goal. What we need to change is this Magic Society. The disconnect between this society and Muggle's society has already caused some problems.
And Voldemort represents the resistance of the pure-blooded families against our actions. It's just that they've gathered on Voldemort himself.
Over the years, more and more Wizard were born in Muggle's family, and even Voldemort himself is one of them. Of course, Voldemort is an exception.
Although he's born like this, he's a pure-blooded supreme. These people will definitely be abandoned. "
"Abandoned? Don't tell me we have to kill them all? "
"Why do we have to kill them? We clearly have better choices."
Jon looked at Hermione with hidden meaning.
"This is the test I gave you, and also what you need to do in the future. How to become the person who can merge the two worlds and what methods to use to push it forward is something you need to think about, and not something I can handle for you."
Hermione nodded and began to ask her next question.
"Teacher, from your conversation with that … snake, I seem to have heard Grindelwald's name, he …"
"You should know Grindelwald, right? At the very least, you should have heard of him. After all, he is the first Dark Lord, a figure of the same generation as Dumbledore. Now, he is still the same. From a certain point of view, he is my teacher, so you are also a legitimate Dark Wizard."
"Teacher, this kind of joke isn't funny."
Hermione didn't want Jon to call her Black Wizard or something like that, even though she knew that Jon was just joking.
"Don't have such a big opinion of Black Wizards. Dumbledore himself is also a very powerful Black Wizard. In this world, there's no right or wrong with power. The way to decide whether it's good or evil depends on how you use it, isn't that right?"
