Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 163 Lies (Thanks to Trooper770 for the tip)

After being yelled at by Mike, Professor Flitwick finally recovered from the shock of receiving the crown and said in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, Mike. I'm a little out of control. You can continue talking."

"I suspect that Voldemort made more than one Horcrux. The other one may be in Percy's hands, and Percy is very likely to have been controlled by a Horcrux." Mike said in a nonchalant tone.

"Okay. Let's not go into where you learned about Horcruxes, but how can you be sure that Percy is controlled by Horcruxes?"

"A feeling! A feeling!" Mike vowed, "Percy has the feeling I felt in the crown. How can I say that feeling? It is very evil. And it also has the ability to confuse people."

Professor Flitwick was silent after hearing this. Deep down in his heart, he was unwilling to believe Mike. After all, Voldemort had brought too much harm to the entire British wizarding world. Flitwick really couldn't imagine what he would be like if he returned. What a scene.

But Mike is his most valued disciple. Based on his understanding of Mike, Mike should not joke about this kind of thing. If what Mike said is true, then continuing to deceive oneself and others is asking for death. They must act immediately to stop Voldemort.

"Okay, I believe you." Flitwick pondered for a long time before saying, "But there are too many things involved in this matter, and I must tell Dumbledore immediately. Just wait here for a while, and I will come back."

Watching Professor Flitwick hurriedly leave the office, Mike played with the wand in his hand, a smile on his face.

Mike had already thought about it very clearly before. Although it was certain that Percy was the owner of the Horcrux in the diary, it was almost impossible for Mike alone to eliminate them. Putting aside Mike's strength, this is Hogwarts. As long as Percy keeps a low profile in the coming days, Mike will have almost no chance of attacking him.

So the only way is to rely on official power.

With the current attitude of the wizarding world towards the second-generation Dark Lord Voldemort, as long as Dumbledore and others know the truth about the Horcruxes, Percy and the diary Horcruxes will become rats on the street, and everyone will cry out for beating them.

So, Mike half-truthfully told the story that the crown was a Horcrux.

Mike has also thought carefully about this.

The first is Flitwick's trust. Professor Flitwick, who has never had a child, treats Mike extremely well, almost treating him as his own child. At the beginning, Mike was a little suspicious of whether Flitwick had any ulterior motives for being so good to him, but as time went by, he became more and more popular, and now Mike has regarded Flitwick as his own relative. Mike believed that Professor Flitwick would believe everything he said.

And what Mike said was not entirely a lie. This kind of half-truth and half-false lie was the hardest to expose. Mike believed that even if he confronted Dumbledore, he could make Dumbledore believe his words.

Not long after, Professor Flitwick led Dumbledore into the office in a hurry, and behind them, Snape and other Hogwarts professors followed.

"I've heard about it on the road, but I still have to ask, Mike, are you sure it's Voldemort's Horcrux?" Dumbledore said straight to the point.

"I am sure!"

"I must warn you, Mr. Townley." Snape said suddenly, "You are legally responsible for creating rumors and spreading panic. If we later find out that what you told is a lie, you will not only be expelled from the school, but also Might be going to Azkaban to serve a sentence!”

"I'm 10,000% sure!" Mike's semi-threatening warning from Snape was not false at all.

After receiving an affirmative answer, everyone present looked shocked, except for Lockhart, who looked confused.

"Who can tell me what a Horcrux is?" Lockhart asked.

As soon as this statement came out, the scene fell into an eerie silence, and everyone looked at Lockhart as if they had seen some kind of monster.

"Please! Don't look at me like that!"

At this time, Dumbledore, who couldn't stand it anymore, explained aloud:

"Horcrux is a very evil black magic. The caster can separate part of his soul through the evil ritual of murdering one or more people and attach it to an object alone. This object is called Horcrux.

A person who makes a Horcrux is equivalent to having two lives and an unlimited lifespan, because even if his main body dies unexpectedly, he can be resurrected through the divided soul in the Horcrux. "

Hearing this, Lockhart was so shocked that he opened his mouth. After a while, he stammered: "Okay, okay. That's really a scary thing. Wait, you just said that it was the mysterious man's Horcrux, then Does that mean the mysterious man is not dead yet!?”

Lockhart came to his senses mid-sentence and covered his face in horror.

If Lockhart had done this kind of thing normally, Snape would have laughed at him, but now, no one could laugh.

"Okay, everyone. Now is not the time to be in a daze, we need to take action immediately." Seeing everyone's low mood, Dumbledore made a decision immediately, "McGonagall, you check Percy immediately, but be careful not to let him Found.

Filius, go check the crown fragments and see if there is still the scent of Horcruxes on them..."

As Dumbledore issued orders one after another in an orderly manner, everyone in the office also began to take action. Only Lockhart still didn't believe in Horcruxes. He grabbed Dumbledore's robe and said with hope:

"The mysterious man is dead, right? He will never come back! That guy Mike must be lying, right?"

"Lockhart, I can't give you an accurate answer." Dumbledore looked at Lockhart with pity, "But no matter whether what Mike said is the truth or not, we must be mentally prepared."

After saying this, Dumbledore shook off Lockhart's hand and left the office.

As everyone left, Lockhart was left alone in the office, slumped on the ground in despair. The news he had just received was a huge blow to him.

In the corridor, Professor Flitwick looked silently at Mike, who was unknowingly taller than him.

"Mike, please stop interfering in this matter. We will deal with it." Professor Flitwick said solemnly, "I will go to Raven's Nest in the next few days to confirm the authenticity of the crown fragment. , you must be careful yourself.”

"I understand, Dean."

When Flitwick saw Mike nodding in agreement, he stopped talking and led Mike towards the direction of Ravenclaw Tower. He was still worried about Mike and wanted to send him back in person.

Just when the two took a few steps, they discovered that at a corner in front, Franklin and others were furtively observing the situation in the direction of the office. Seeing Professor Flitwick discovering them, Franklin and others hurriedly retreated.

"Franklin! What are you doing!"

"Well, Professor Flitwick, we're just worried about Mike."

Seeing Franklin and others lowering their heads and acting submissive, Mike came to the rescue and said, "Dean, I can just go back with Franklin and the others. You go and do your work first."

"this…"

"Don't worry, don't you know my strength yet?"

Perhaps he was really confident in Mike's strength, or maybe Professor Flitwick was really busy. Professor Flitwick struggled for a moment and finally relaxed.

"Okay then, be careful along the way. Remember, don't continue to interfere in this matter!"
