From Kamal Taj to Hogwarts

Chapter 206 The Significance of Prophecy

After the Easter vacation, Sivan came to the office of the Director of Transfiguration as the ghost Sivan and told Dumbledore, who was sitting behind the desk, the prophecy left by Ms. Ravenclaw before she disappeared.

"You don't seem to trust Ms. Ravenclaw's prophecy?" Sivan looked at Dumbledore, who looked a little careless, and asked doubtfully.

"No, I trust Ms. Rowena Ravenclaw's prophecy." Dumbledore finally raised his head, looked at the ghost Sivan floating in the air, and said. "Even skeptics of the prophecy don't

Will easily deny true prophecies. And Ms. Ravenclaw's prophecy is obviously a true prophecy."

"But your expression doesn't look like you care very much." Xiwen raised his eyebrows and retorted.

"What I don't trust is not the authenticity of Ms. Ravenclaw's prophecy, but rather the prophecy itself." Dumbledore looked at Sivan deeply and said to him in a low voice.

"The significance of our learning about prophecy is not to accurately predict the future, but to get rid of the shackles of fate and let us know more possibilities, so that we can live more freely. Prophecy does not exist to constrain us."

"Mr. Strange, no matter what the future mentioned in the prophecy looks like, we are still living in the present!" Dumbledore said. "The present is complete, but the prophecy is not. The prophecy is fragmented, it does not

It may tell us everything about the future, but nature doesn’t have to interfere too much with our present.”

"You mean... this kind of prophecy has an impact on the current situation, just like Grindelwald's precognitive ability?" Sivan pinched his chin and asked softly. "Grindelwald just believed in what he saw.

So we took advantage of this and had a negative impact."

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded. "It is precisely because he has been too influenced by his precognitive ability since he was a child that he was plotted by me when he ran for the president of the International Federation of Wizards last year, so that he lost the relationship with him.

Muggles' opportunity to start a war."

"Besides, the more I think about Xiao Xiwen's guess at Flamel's house, the more likely it becomes. Grindelwald may have really predicted my future lifelong enemy, so he came to Godric's Hollow by such a coincidence.

, and made a blood pact with me."

Dumbledore laughed, but his smile was filled with despair.

"But even if Grindelwald made a blood pact with me, how could he have thought that even he himself was deeply entangled in this relationship and could not escape for half a century? How could he have thought that the little

How could an accident like Ariana happen in a valley, causing us to finally break up?"

"Even he obviously didn't expect that the blood alliance between us would actually break down due to the conflict of ideas..."

"Dumbledore..." Sivan felt the depressed mood of the pillar of the wizarding world and asked softly. "Dumbledore, are you really okay?"

"It's okay, I'm fine." Dumbledore slumped in the armchair behind his desk, shook his head lazily, and said.

"Through what happened with Grindelwald last year, we can realize that we don't need to rely too much on those vague prophecies. The more important thing is to take control of ourselves and make every effort to improve ourselves so that we can cope with the next

Disaster."

After saying this, he waved his hand to fetch a cup of tea from the table and took a sip.

After drinking tea, Dumbledore cheered up a little, sat up and said: "For example, the last sentence of Ms. Ravenclaw's prophecy mentioned 'the end of the catastrophe'. Does that mean that even if we don't do anything?

, even if you don’t think about anything, you can definitely end this disaster?”

Xiwen thought for a moment, then slowly shook his head.

"Also, do you know why prophecies are ambiguous, Mr. Strange?" Dumbledore laughed and asked himself. "Because we have never accurately predicted the future! Neither do the prophets.

We just determine the scope of a future based on the knowledge and experience related to prophecy.”

"And what can we do within that scope, and how should we do it? This is our own business. So it goes back to that sentence, as long as we try to live our present, it will be fine."

After listening to Dumbledore's words, Sivan was deeply moved and nodded heavily.

He immediately wanted to put aside the prophecy and immediately improve his abilities!

Just when Sivan couldn't wait to get out of the wall and leave the Office of the Director of Transfiguration, Dumbledore suddenly stopped him.

"Wait, don't leave in a hurry. Let's discuss what Ms. Ravenclaw's prophecy refers to." Dumbledore shouted from behind Sivan.

Xiwen: "...?"

"Didn't you tell me not to care about the prophecy..." Sivan twitched the corner of his mouth, turned back to look at Dumbledore and asked.

"I just want you not to rely too much on prophecies, but at the same time, I don't completely deny the role of prophecies." Dumbledore blinked and said to Sivan. "All true wise men know that prophecies always remain true.

Very important, even if that importance is not immediately apparent.”

"Okay..." Sivan shrugged and said casually. "The first sentence should be obvious, it is Grindelwald who is going to do something big."

The meaning of the first sentence of the prophecy, "The overflow of black fire will cause turmoil in the world," can be said to be very easy to discern.

Since Grindelwald held a rally at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, the blue-black magical flame he cast at that time has become his unique symbolic representation. As the black fire representing Grindelwald, he also set off

The world's turbulent actions can all be echoed by this world's top dark wizard.

Dumbledore also nodded in agreement and said in a deep voice: "It seems that I need to pay more attention to Grindelwald's movements."

Sivan nodded, then sighed and said to Dumbledore: "But I still don't have any clue about the remaining three sentences."

Dumbledore thought for a moment and asked Sivan a question in a very low voice: "What do you think is the reason for the strange events in the Albanian forest?"

Thinking of the eroded forest, the vast black curtain covering the forest, and the dark wizard possessed by an unknown existence... The third sentence of the prophecy suddenly appeared in Xiwen's mind -

"The devil comes in the midst of chaos and swallows up all living things."

"Do you mean that the strange phenomenon is because of the demon mentioned in the prophecy?!" Xiwen asked in horror. "Is there really such a thing as a demon in this world?"

Xiwen had never heard of the concept of demon god in this world. On the contrary, he had heard the teacher explain the concept of demon god in his previous life.

Almost every demon god has great power and swollen ambitions. Even in Kama Taj, only mages as powerful as Ancient One have the power to fight against the demon gods.

Therefore, Xiwen looked at Dumbledore's face with a serious expression and wanted to get an answer from him.

"Unfortunately, I don't know much about the demon in the prophecy." But Dumbledore also shook his head with a heavy expression and sighed.

After all, Sivan and Dumbledore still didn't understand what the prophecy referred to.

But after all, he had received Dumbledore's advice about prophecies before, and Xiwen no longer relied on or valued prophecies as much as before.

So he adopted the attitude of trying to live in the present as Dumbledore said, no longer obsessed with the revelation of the prophecy, but methodically insisted on a fulfilling life rhythm, and worked hard to improve himself so that he could actually face the devil.

More power to protect yourself.

In a fulfilling life, Sivan spent the last month of his second year at Hogwarts.

When Xiven once again took the first-grade report card and walked into the Hogwarts Express train parked at Hogsmeade Station, he suddenly realized that he had spent his entire life in the company of this castle.

It's been two years.

Xiwen's third grade life is about to begin...
