HP Approaches the Magical World
Chapter 180: Candidates
Jon still did not sign this agreement in the end.
"Your conditions are very attractive, and you can help me a lot as you can imagine, but principal, I don't want to, and I'm not suitable to be a fighter."
Jon certainly didn't want to be a fighter, never did.
His ideal was to be a scholar, and he wasn't ready to be the warrior Dumbledore had in mind.
As a reserve capitalist, Jon can not only see immediate benefits, but also long-term benefits. In other words, he is better at seeing long-term benefits.
It's not a good investment.
Although it seems that there is nothing now, all kinds of conveniences, even you can do what you want without going to class, as long as you can pass the exam, no teacher will care about you, but is this really a good thing?
This kind of freedom even breaks through the bottom line of Hogwarts to some extent, so the price to be paid is also incredible.
If others were here, they might not care.
Isn't it just to come back and guard when there is a war? What kind of condition is this? It is the obligation that Hogwarts students should abide by.
But Jon is different, he can see the meaning behind this price.
Everyone knows how to play word games. When there is a war, come back to guard, so he may not be able to leave the UK until Voldemort dies, and even if Voldemort is completely wiped out, the next thing will not be less.
Hogwarts is a real fortress of war. There will never be any lack of incidents here. Unless the problem of getting along between wizards and Muggles in the entire world is fundamentally resolved, there will be no day when Jon can really leave.
In other words, the real purpose of this agreement is to bind Jon in Hogwarts.
The so-called came back to guard Hogwarts when it was needed, so how could Jon know when it was?
This time is not fixed, it just means that when the need arises, if Jon signs, then his future is quite clear.
There is no freedom, he will become the guardian of Hogwarts, like Helga, trapped in Hogwarts forever, and he does not necessarily have the rights of Dumbledore.
Gently closing the document in his hand, Jon smiled softly and handed the document back to Dumbledore.
In the future, if anyone tells him that Dumbledore has no plans, he will be the first to disagree. This is simply an old fox who has become a spirit, thinking about how to achieve his goals all day long.
The kindness is true, but so is the insidiousness.
Human beings are inherently multifaceted.
Even Jon himself is not an existence with a single characteristic.
If someone asked him, do you want to be free?
Jon answered in the affirmative.
He wants it, wants it badly.
But what he wants is eternal freedom, not exchanging future freedom for present freedom.
So he won't sign this.
"On this matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to reach an agreement."
Jon really wanted to leave this time: "Principal Dumbledore, I think our current cooperation is already very good, there is no need to make extra efforts, I understand your purpose, but what does this have to do with me? Yes To me, it's just a school."
Of course, Hogwarts is not just a school for him. He has always dreamed of learning magic in this castle since he was a child. This is a very precious existence. Now Helga is added. What does he do for the school, then he will not refuse.
But he had to say,
For his own future, he has no room for reincarnation.
There may be many reasons for Dumbledore to do this, or he suddenly felt that he is very suitable to be the person who guards this school, or he has foreseen that he may encounter accidents, or some other reasons, these reasons None of his reasons for inducing Jon.
This kind of logic, in Dumbledore's view, was no problem, and he treated Potter in the same way, directly arranged everything and let Potter do what he wanted to do.
Just like a screenwriter who writes a TV series, he decides the various directions of the characters. Maybe Potter will follow his ideas willingly, but Jon will not. He is different from Harry Potter, and this is not a story. But a real world.
"Well, I don't mean to force you to do anything. If you don't want to, then let's put this document aside and don't mention it anymore."
Dumbledore stuffed the file back to its original location, and he saw that Jon had seen his true intentions, but he was not embarrassed.
There was not even a hypocritical cover-up, as if this was an aboveboard thing, and it would be Jon's loss if Jon didn't sign it.
"I thought that your identity would have some deep feelings for the school. After all, you are also a descendant of Hufflepuff."
"My ancestor and I are not the same people. When the ancestor founded the school, he was already a successful legendary witch, but I am still a young man. I still have my own life to live, and I cannot stay here forever Isn’t it? I think Professor Dumbledore, you should be able to tell me, Britain is not the only country in this world, it’s a big world, and I still have a long future, so it’s impossible to stay here.”
"Okay, okay, you kids are heartless, you don't take care of me as an old man at all, you can leave, if there is anything in the future, you can come to me again."
Dumbledore seemed very disappointed. He lifted the magic circle around him and let Jon out. Although he was a bit unwilling, he couldn't force Jon to do anything. Jon didn't care about his loss, turned and left the principal's office .
After being deceived by Dumbledore, how could he know if Dumbledore was really lost?
But this time Dumbledore was really disappointed. After Jon left, the surrounding portraits began to ask questions.
Dumbledore didn't speak, but the principals in the portrait could tell.
"I knew it, that kid is so smart, how could he fail to see the restrictions of the treaty?"
Armando snorted, but Helga's portrait was hanging there, and he didn't dare to say anything excessive about Jon, so he could only comfort Dumbledore: "If you want me to say, Albus, you can live a long time." What about time, why start preparing for the funeral now?"
"Being prepared is naturally better than not being prepared."
Akalido glared at Armando, "Speaking of which, Albus, I think Severus is more suitable..."
