HP Approaches the Magic World

Ashamed as he was, Jon did not give up on helping Grindelwald because of this.

The main reason is that Grindelwald's matter was a transaction at the beginning. Since it has been settled, it cannot be reneged on casually.

As for Dumbledore, Jon would not directly show his heart to Dumbledore just because of his temporary emotions.

No, really not. Even if Dumbledore's bewitching skills were improved to a higher level, it would not really have any impact on Jon. At best, he would be touched now and then return to normal.

Jon is a staunch atheist.

The biggest characteristic of atheists is their lack of faith rather than their disbelief in the existence of anything in the world that is incomparable. Jon also strongly agrees that human beings should have a sense of awe, but awe and belief are actually two different things.

In Jon's opinion, those who believe in Dumbledore are no different from Voldemort's Death Eaters. Fanaticism is always not a good thing.

So what kind of role Dumbledore plays has nothing to do with Jon, and he is not a follower of Dumbledore.

After he left the principal's office, he naturally returned to his residence.

This time he did not fly back quickly, but walked back slowly.

In fact, walking occasionally is something that helps you think.

By the time Jon returned to his cabin with the moonlight, Lockhart had already had a midnight snack here.

"Is Mr. Lockhart starting to give up on his idol image now?"

Jon looked at the high-calorie food piled on the table and couldn't help but laugh.

"If you continue to eat late-night snacks like this, I'm afraid you will lose your handsome appearance soon."

"Don't worry, it's just something to eat. I have been able to persist for so many years, so I naturally have a way to maintain my appearance."

Lockhart's hand happened to be the plan he took from Dumbledore, and it looked like he hadn't finished reading it yet.

"How have you considered Principal Dumbledore's proposal?"

Jon also sat down at the table, took a piece of small cake and stuffed it into his mouth.

Then he frowned and swallowed the cake.

"It's so sweet. Teacher, why do you, like Principal Dumbledore, like sweets so much?"

"Like sweets?"

Lockhart smiled and said, "It's probably because I felt too bitter, so I had to eat sweets to suppress it."

"What you say is really not convincing at all. Compared with many people, your life is already very happy."

Jon can actually understand Lockhart's mood to some extent, but he also feels that Lockhart's life is already very good. Compared with many people who have not even realized their dreams, his current situation is

They are already considered successful among those who pursue their dreams.

"Maybe, in the eyes of many people, I have the image of a successful person like you said."

Lockhart reached for Dumbledore's plan, snapped his fingers, lit Jon's fireplace, and threw the plan in.

"I have to say that Principal Dumbledore's wisdom is truly beyond compare."

There was some emotion in Lockhart's voice: "He was able to grasp the embarrassment I am facing now, and then he prescribed the right medicine and gave me a plan like this."

"What's in the plan?"

Jon asked, looking Lockhart in the eyes and saying, "Don't look at me like that, I really don't know."

"There's nothing important. It's just a big drama arranged for me. It's a very powerful one."

Lockhart was no longer stingy with his words of praise at this moment: "If I cooperate with him and successfully complete this scene, then I will be able to retire in a year's time, leave the place where I live now, and use a new one."

Identity and starting life again.”

He paused, and then emphasized: "In a real sense, starting life again."

"But that means you need to abandon all your current reputation and interests. Although the origin may not be clean, it is still your hard work, teacher."

"It's not hard work, it's just something stolen from others." Lockhart was very calm about what he had done: "These things didn't belong to me originally. I stole them for so many years, and now

Being able to leave with dignity is already a very good ending."

Even a person who does many evil things hopes to have a good ending, not to mention that Lockhart can only be regarded as a bad person.

"Besides... is it successful? I don't think my life is very successful."

He held the cup in his hand, but did not drink the tea.

"You may not know that my background is actually not good. Unlike you who were born into a noble family, my grandmother's family is a noble family, and I am also a descendant of a great witch like Helga Hufflepuff... I

, is a mixed race.”

"What's wrong with the mixed-race?" Jon tilted his head and asked, "There are many mixed-race and even Muggle-born classmates around me, and they live very well in school?!"

"I'm still different from them. Ever since I was discovered to have magical powers, my mother has placed great hopes on me. She is a Muggle-born witch who married my father and studied in Hogwart.

Her learning experience has given her a very persistent idea of ​​magic, and as her child, my mother even feels that I should be at least much better than herself."

"In her opinion, she, a Muggle-born witch, already has such magical attainments. As the son of a witch, there is no reason for me to be inferior to her, especially since neither of my two sisters have magical abilities.

"

Jon was silent.

This is the impact of his native family on Lockhart. Such things happen all the time in some corner of the world. Although he feels sad, he cannot fully empathize with it.

Because his family is very happy, whether it is in his memory of his previous life or in this life, his parents have given him a lot of freedom, but at the same time, his parents have not lacked concern for him, but after having a younger sister,

This kind of concern is just a little less.

Jon didn't think this was a bad thing. After two lifetimes combined, he was no longer young. In every sense except physical age, he was already an adult with a complete personality.

But just because he is lucky does not mean that everyone in the world is lucky.

"So, we are different."

Lockhart looked at Jon, who was trying to show that he was feeling the same, and said this.
