Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures - H.P.S.T Chapter 855: Evan's Explanation
“Dumbledore may be suspecting that the connection between you and Voldemort is mutual…” said Evan, trying to find words that would make it easier for Harry to understand, “It’s not just that you can see what he’s doing, through this scar’s connection, Voldemort can also see what you’re doing, and that’s exactly what he’s worried about…”
The dull atmosphere suddenly grew even more solemn. That was why Dumbledore wanted to keep this secret from Harry.
Harry couldn’t help thinking about it because he was worried that he might leak their secrets to Voldemort because he was not trustworthy.
Then, he thought of the way Wormtail, the little wizard, had cowered and shrank back, which made him feel very bad.
He had never thought that one day he would become like Peter Pettigrew, a leaker.
“Evan, what’s really going on?” Hermione asked. “I’ve never heard of this magic…”
“No one, except Harry, has ever been hit by Avada Kedavra and survived,” said Evan vaguely. “The collision of his mother’s protective charm and the Killing Curse produced a wonderful reaction, making Harry and Voldemort have some kind of connection.”
They already knew about Horcruxes, and Evan couldn’t tell Harry that he himself was a Horcrux.
It was not the time yet, Harry wasn’t ready to sacrifice himself, and Dumbledore hadn’t prepared him for it.
Harry fell silent. His flames of fury, which had been rising, were suddenly extinguished. It was as though he had fallen into the cold waters of the lake.
Ron was watching uneasily, not knowing what to do, the topic was beyond his imagination.
Hermione, on the other hand, was pondering, thinking about what Evan had said about the connection between Harry and Voldemort. She had always felt something was wrong.
“So, in order to prevent Voldemort from seeing what you’re doing, I think you’d better learn Occlumency as soon as possible.”
“I’m not very good at that spell, I can’t clear my mind, and I haven’t had those dreams for a long time,” said Harry.
“That’s the worst part of it, because Voldemort had obviously noticed the connection between him and you last term. He voluntarily closed his brain and didn’t want you to see what he was doing,” said Evan. “But he’ll soon come up with specific strategies. I think he might intentionally show you false visions to lure you and provide you with false information.”
Harry, Ron, and Hermione took a deep breath. If that were the case, it would be terrible.
Deliberately let Harry see the wrong scene, lure him away from Hogwarts, or provide false information to the Order of the Phoenix.
Evan didn’t finish what he said. In fact doing so would hurt Voldemort a lot.
His fallen soul had been split into many parts. From the perspective of soul magic, the excessive contact between his incomplete soul and Harry’s pure and complete soul would cause him great harm. That was why Harry, in his first year, only touched Voldemort, who was attached to Quirrell, and he was finished.
Mysterious soul magic had many fields, in which the wizarding world was still groping.
Evan didn’t tell Harry about it, he hoped to attract his attention so that he could learn Occlumency as soon as possible.
“These are all my guesses, and Dumbledore must be just skeptical. It’s not necessarily true,” Evan continued, paying attention to the expression on Harry’s face. “In short, you must learn Occlumency as soon as possible. And don’t believe what Voldemort shows you. Everyone knows that you’re his main target. He’ll surely try to defeat you first to prove that he’s invincible.”
Voldemort’s notoriety was mainly based on his invincible magic, but his repeated defeats to Harry had already made some people doubt.
If he couldn’t prove that he was invincible, Voldemort was nothing and his reputation was greatly reduced.
Whether from the perspective of practical interests or personal glory, Harry would be Voldemort’s main and only target.
There was a long pause, broken only by the mournful creak of the floorboards below their feet. Everyone was thinking about what Evan had said.
Strange emotions spread through Harry, replacing the previous dissatisfaction and anger.
He knew the connection between himself and Voldemort, the scar on his forehead, the terrible nightmares, and his wand. The core of his wand and the core of Voldemort’s wand used the same phoenix tail feather, which was the phoenix raised by Dumbledore.
That was something Harry tried his best to hide, the connection between him and Voldemort…
This connection made him unique and made everyone who heard his name stare at his scar stupidly.
Until now, Harry suddenly felt like he was some kind of monster.
He thought sadly that he really should be isolated from others, and that this was the fate he deserved.
“It’s not necessarily a bad thing, Harry. Don’t always think on the bad side,” said Evan.
Harry looked up at him, his eyes gleaming with hope.
Evan felt he might have been too harsh just now; he couldn’t let Harry lose all his confidence.
The most crucial step in defeating Voldemort was to count on him, and Harry couldn’t give up on himself.
“As I said before, the connection between you and Voldemort is very wonderful. In my opinion, it’s like a sign. He personally selected you as his fateful opponent. You’re the only wizard who can defeat him.”
“Am I the only wizard who can defeat Voldemort?” Harry whispered. “He chose me as his opponent?”
“Yeah, you’ve defeated him many times. It’s your responsibility.”
“Voldemort was scared, so he wanted to kill you when you were a baby, but he failed.”
Evan wanted to talk about ‘fate’, which reminded him of another prediction by Professor Trelawney.
Her previous predictions changed the structure of the wizarding world and changed the fate of Harry and Voldemort.
Voldemort marked Harry as his fateful enemy, and there should be only one of them in the end.
At the same time, Evan had also heard a new prophecy, perhaps related to evil gods.
In this prophecy, Voldemort also marked a person as his servant.
This servant would help him gain power beyond the imagination of the world and become extremely powerful.
That dark temple full of taboos might be the Centaurs’ Temple of the Moon.
During the worship of the evil god, that temple was probably the most evil place in the world, where countless flesh and blood and souls were piled up.
Voldemort’s old magic was also fulfilled, and he left a curse on the Philosopher’s Stone.
This curse finally fell on Evan, but it had been removed by him with the magical power of the complete Philosopher’s Stone.
The prophecy was not fulfilled, or was it that once marked; Evan would turn into the servant mentioned in the prophecy?
Evan would help Voldemort gain the power of the evil god and make him stronger.
This sounded ridiculous. Evan didn’t think he would make that kind of mistake to help Voldemort gain the power of the evil god.
Or, maybe the prophecy had been fulfilled, but Voldemort’s servant was not Evan, but someone else?!
