New Professor at Hogwarts

"What's wrong? Minerva." Mrs. Weasley asked in confusion. She didn't understand why Professor McGonagall reacted so violently at this time. Which Horcrux, what on earth is it?

Xia Ran answered on behalf of Professor McGonagall: "Horcruxes, one of the most evil magics in history!"

In addition to understanding the concepts related to Horcruxes in his previous life, after awakening his memory in this life, he read countless books in order to prepare for the battle class and preach knowledge. Among them, there were a few ancient book manuscripts that mentioned the soul weapon. Coupled with his existing understanding of the Horcrux, it can be said that almost no one in the wizarding world of Harry Potter knows it better than him.

"A Horcrux is a very evil thing." Xia Ran said, "A Horcrux refers to an object that contains part of a person's soul."

While he was speaking, the portraits of the old male and female principals of Hogwarts hanging on the wall were all awake, listening intently to Xia Ran's story. One of them, a fat wizard with a red nose, even took out a hearing aid.

"An object that contains part of a soul?" Mr. Weasley said in confusion.

"A person's soul is complete when he is born, as long as it can be called a life." Xia Ran said, "But if you split part of your soul through some special method, and then hide it in your body, In an object outside, in this way, even if your body is attacked or destroyed, you will not die because there is still a part of your soul that remains undamaged in the world."

"Of course, existing in this form is very, very humble! Worse than a ghost, worse than the humblest wandering soul!"

"What object? What does the Horcrux need as a carrier?" Fred suddenly asked.

The Weasleys seemed to have just discovered that their children were also in the office. They quickly interrupted Xia Ran and said: "You—Percy, Fred, George, Ron, Ginny—leave the principal immediately. Office, take Ginny to the school hospital, your father and I will rush to the school hospital afterwards."

"Oh no!" cried Fred.

"Mom, we want to hear the professor talk about Horcruxes," George said.

"No!" Mrs. Weasley said seriously, "You also heard that Xia Ran said that this is the most evil black magic, so this is not something wizards of your age should understand."

"Dad..." The Weasley children looked at Arthur Weasley, hoping that their father would agree to them staying in the office to listen to Xia Ran's story.

Ginny stopped crying at this time, and most of her attention was attracted by Xia Ran's story. She urgently wanted to know what had been confusing and controlling her in the past six months.

What are Horcruxes and how should they be dealt with?

"Arthur, no." Mrs. Weasley shook her head seriously at Arthur.

"Professor Frémont..." They began to turn their pleas to Xia Ran.

Xia Ran was in a dilemma. Although he felt that knowing about the Horcrux was nothing, judging from the original time and space trajectories, these people present were not the kind of wizards who could not withstand the temptation due to the powerful power and terrifying effects of black magic. , but their parents are present, so there is no need for Xia Ran to play this educational role.

Ron suddenly looked at Harry expectantly and said, "By the way, Harry, you will definitely tell me, right?"

"I don't think Harry is old enough to understand Horcruxes," Professor McGonagall interjected. Apparently she thought Harry should leave the office and go to the school hospital with the Weasley children.

Ron shut his mouth immediately. It seemed that he had also implicated Harry.

Dumbledore thought carefully for a while and said: "You are indeed too young. It will not be too late to know this knowledge after you graduate."

His words were the final word.

Percy, Fred, George, Ron, and Harry could only leave the principal's office with Ginny dejectedly and rushed to the school hospital.

"Miss Weasley can rest in bed, and maybe drink a glass of steaming chocolate milk." Dumbledore said kindly.

When he heard the sound of the stone monster jumping away and then returning to its original position, Dumbledore smiled again and said: "Xia Ran, keep going."

"The most critical step in making a Horcrux is to split the soul!" Xia Ran said slowly, "It is the law of nature to keep the soul intact, and to violate this law, you must go through very evil behavior."

"What evil deed?"

"Kill! Killing will split the soul, and if you want to make a Horcrux, you must take advantage of this destruction to seal the split soul!"

Xia Ran paused for a moment and continued: "There is a spell, but I didn't find any relevant records in the book. Maybe Voldemort knew this spell from somewhere."

"I think he should have known that spell when he was studying at Hogwarts." Dumbledore said, "For example, this diary is the container, or carrier, that Voldemort used to seal his soul fragments when he was young. Knowing the spell, he cannot make this diary as a Horcrux."

"It would be best if that spell was lost," Professor McGonagall said.

"That's natural, Professor McGonagall." Mr. Weasley nodded.

Dumbledore asked: "Why do you think Voldemort has more than one Horcrux? Xia Ran."

Xia Ran immediately smiled and replied: "Voldemort is a person who is afraid of death - almost all of us are afraid of death, there is nothing to say - but if he really only has one Horcrux, I don't think he will If your Horcrux diary is thrown around randomly, it will definitely be protected with the strictest and most powerful magic. Not to mention Ginny, a little witch who has just entered school, even us adult wizards cannot break the protection attached to it. As for the sex curse, perhaps only Dumbledore can powerfully break the outer protection curse."

"So, Voldemort definitely has more than one Horcrux. As for the specific number of Horcruxes he made, this is unknown."

Xia Ran knew that Voldemort had made seven Horcruxes, but there was no need to say this. It could be inferred that Voldemort owned multiple Horcruxes, but the specific number of Horcruxes that Voldemort owned could not be determined by speculation alone. It was better to wait for Deng Bledo goes to find Professor Slughorn to confirm.

The portraits of the old principals on the wall made sounds of shock and indignation. As the past principals of Hogwarts, they knew how to make Horcruxes, and they knew even more how much killing would be required to produce multiple Horcruxes.

Dumbledore was thoughtful, while Professor McGonagall suddenly said: "No wonder Voldemort, who was supposed to be wiped out after he attacked Lily and James more than ten years ago, is still alive today."

She had heard Dumbledore mention that Voldemort was wandering around in the Albanian forests, where he was more alive than dead.

"Who invented the extremely evil black magic of Horcruxes?" Mrs. Weasley said in disgust.

Xia Ran smiled and said: "Who knows? There are definitely many wizards like Voldemort in the history of the magical world for thousands of years, but they may not be as powerful as Voldemort."
