A friendly day at Hogwarts

She didn't seem to expect Dumbledore to be so polite, and Trelawney looked a little flattered.She stood up in a hurry, but accidentally bumped into the corner of the table. The crystal ball on the table shook slightly and rolled down from the shelf to the table. She hurriedly reached out to hold it.

Dumbledore had already reached the door and held the door handle.

At this time, a hoarse, loud and harsh voice came from behind him.

"The one who has the power to conquer the Dark Lord is coming...born into a family that has defeated the Dark Lord three times...born at the end of the seventh month...the Dark Lord marks him as his great rival, but he Possessing abilities unknown to the Dark Lord...one is destined to die at the hands of the other, because both cannot survive at the same time..."

Dumbledore turned around in surprise.

"The person with the ability to conquer the Dark Lord will be born at the end of the seventh month..."

After Trelawney finished her prophecy, she lowered her head as if she was asleep, and her body lost balance.She swayed twice and fell onto the chair beside the table. The unprotected crystal ball fell to the ground and shattered with a bang.

Only then did she wake up, as if she had no idea what had just happened, and raised her head blankly.

"I just..." Trelawney glanced at the fragments of the crystal ball on the ground and said in confusion.

"Nothing," Dumbledore looked at her thoughtfully and shook his head. "You look a little restless."

Trelawney, who obviously didn't know what happened just now, wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the noise coming from outside the door.

The door was opened, revealing a man in gray robes and a beard covering his face. Although it was not obvious, it was vaguely visible that he had the same blue eyes as Dumbledore.

The man grabbed a young wizard with greasy black hair by the collar and pushed him into the room angrily.

"This guy! When I found out, he was lying at the door eavesdropping!"

The wizard staggered as he was pushed, and muttered an explanation: "I didn't sneak, I just went up the wrong stairs..."

He is tall and thin, with sallow skin and an obvious hooked nose.Even though it was a memory from more than ten years ago, Glenn recognized at a glance that this was Snape in his youth, or in other words, Snape in his Death Eater days.

There was a soft touch on the shoulder, and the scene disappeared again.

"So, Professor Trelawney actually has the power of prophecy..." Glenn raised his head and said, "Is this why you want to keep her in Hogwarts?"

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded and asked again, "I think you should have noticed the person who was pushed in by the pig-headed bartender, right?"

"That's...Professor Snape?"

"Yes. However, at that time, Severus Snape was not the Potions Professor at Hogwarts, but a complete Death Eater."

Dumbledore didn't seem to intend to hide Snape's identity as a double agent.

"So that's it." Glenn showed a sudden look, "Doesn't that mean that Voldemort also knows about the existence of this prophecy?"

"Yes. This is why I accepted Sybil's job offer and protected her in Hogwarts Castle."

"So, is Harry the one mentioned in the prophecy?"

Although Glenn, who had a God's perspective, knew everything about the prophecy, he still had to be patient and listen to Dumbledore's story.

"Strictly speaking, there are two children who originally fit the prophecy. In addition to Harry, there is also Neville Longbottom." Dumbledore said, "But I think you should have noticed that there is another very important sentence in the prophecy. If so - the Dark Lord marks him as his archenemy."

"So, Voldemort personally chose Harry?" Glenn asked, "Doesn't that mean that if he had chosen Neville, he could have directly fulfilled this prophecy?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Dumbledore smiled and said, "Who can know the outcome of something that has never happened?"

"Then according to the prophecy, one is destined to die at the hands of the other..." Glenn frowned and said, "But Harry has become one of Voldemort's Horcruxes. If he wants to kill Voldemort, he must Destroy the Horcrux... Then isn't this ending already fixed..."

Dumbledore sighed slightly and said: "Theoretically, this is true, but there is no precedent in the book for wizards to become Horcruxes. Everything has to be explored by ourselves. There may be other variables."

Glenn remained calm on the surface, but he already had an idea in his mind.

In fact, the key to the problem is that Voldemort must choose Harry's blood as the material in the resurrection ceremony.

As for how to achieve this, we still need to consider it in the long term.

"By the way, Professor," Glenn said again, "I have another question about Horcruxes."

Dumbledore raised his head: "Oh? What's the problem?"

"We know that the diary and Harry are both one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, so..." Glenn showed a hesitant look, "Is there a possibility... I mean maybe, Voldemort also made other... As for the Horcrux... Of course, this is just a guess and has no basis."

Dumbledore glanced at him thoughtfully and nodded: "Your guess is very reasonable, Glenn. Although it is not certain yet, there are indeed some clues pointing to this point of view."

"What clues?" Glenn asked.

"As you can see, Tom Riddle was a handsome and charming little wizard when he was a student." Dumbledore explained, "And in the first memory just now, I think you have seen him later. As far as I know, the reason why he is unrecognizable is most likely due to the mutilation of his soul, and simply making a Horcrux is not enough to make his soul mutilated to such an extent."

He paused briefly and continued.

"But this is just a possibility. There are many ways to cause appearance changes, and splitting the soul is just one of them. There are also many black magics that may cause this situation. But based on my speculation about Voldemort's character, this possibility is The probability is relatively high.”

"Then our main task at the moment is to look for other possible Horcruxes first?" Glenn asked again.

Dumbledore thought for a while and said: "This is just one of the things we will do next. I will explore some places, talk to some people, and look for the traces left by Voldemort and the stories of his past. "

Glenn immediately noticed that the subject of Dumbledore's words was "I", not "we".

"what about me?"

"As for you..." Dumbledore smiled, "You have a more important mission."
