Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 273 The person who was replaced! The memory gradually disappeared!
“Each type of dark creature exudes different dark magic powers. It seems that when there are many of these types, it could lead to a partial overlap between two parallel worlds. At the same time, people in the overlapping area would see themselves in another world. Of course, judging from what just happened, it could be two worlds overlapping, or it could be three worlds overlapping…” Li Weide concluded.

"This is truly a remarkable discovery..." Dumbledore looked at Grindelwald with a complicated expression. "I suppose, from ancient times to the present, no one besides you has ever attempted to collect so many dark creatures and put them in one place?"

"Strange... Really strange..." Grindelwald muttered to himself.

He recalled the brief confrontation with his other-worldly self. He had to admit, the Elder Wand's amplification was indeed very powerful...

However, now that the Elder Wand is in Dumbledore's hands, it will not be so easy for him to get it back.

Suddenly, Grindelwald's eyes began to flicker...

"I want to ask, why does the overlap of parallel worlds result in the appearance of another version of myself from another world? Why don't other people appear?"

Li Weide said, "Because parallel worlds are both similar and different. Since we are here today, there's a high chance that we, in another similar world, are also here, even if for different reasons. Of course, if it happens to overlap with a parallel world without us, we won't see that other version of ourselves..."

At this moment, Dumbledore and Grindelwald both remembered that during the day, a non-existent witch seemed to have appeared in the team...

In other words, this witch party does exist in another parallel world, but not in this world.

Suddenly, Grindelwald and Dumbledore looked up at each other at the same time, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Grindelwald said slowly, "Today... several of my friends attacked the centaurs... I believe they saw centaurs from another world. And the centaurs from that world were about to attack... These friends have always vaguely remembered a mutual friend, but now, that friend's memory is gradually fading... And the others who were present at the time don't remember having such a mutual friend... Does this mean..."

Li Weide frowned. "You mean... when parallel worlds overlapped, there was a situation where people were switched? They from another parallel world came to our world, while they from our world went to another world?"

"Hmm...is that possible?" Grindelwald asked hesitantly.

"Are you familiar with those people?" Li Weide asked.

"Of course! They are all my beloved relatives, friends, brothers and sisters!" Grindelwald raised his head and said with a little pride.

"Please call them over." Li Weide said.

Grindelwald waved his hand, and soon the four witches from the daytime came over.

"When he asks you questions, answer them truthfully," Grindelwald said.

The four witch-conspirators all nodded.

"Excuse me, what are your names?"

"Gregor Hawkins."

"Godfrey Hill."

"Yuli Miller."

"Gottfried Martin."

The four of them gave their names one after another, and Levid looked at Grindelwald. "Are their names correct?"

"Of course." Grindelwald asked doubtfully, "Why do you ask?"

"A parallel world is another world that is similar to our world but different from it. This difference can be manifested in any aspect. That is to say, even if the characters are exactly the same, their names may not be the same," said Li Weide.

"Is that so...then they were not switched," Grindelwald mused.

The four of them looked at each other, completely confused as to what Grindelwald and the others were talking about. However, since he was their boss after all, they didn't dare to ask...

"I can't draw a conclusion yet..." Li Weide touched his chin, "Can you take out your wands for us to see?"

The four of them drew out their wands and placed them in their palms.

Just as Levid was about to ask a question, Grindelwald beside him spoke in surprise, "Gottfried, where is your ebony wand?"

"What ebony wand?" Gottfried Martin looked at Grindelwald in confusion. "I've always used a cherry wand. This one was given to me by you."

Grindelwald's eyes widened as he looked up and down at Gottfried Martin in front of him in confusion.

Li Weide narrowed his eyes slightly, "Ebony? Cherry? You... do you still remember the friend you mentioned today?"

The four of them frowned and recalled.

Gottfried Martin hesitated and said, "We were just discussing this... This morning we did remember there was such a person, but we had forgotten his name and appearance. But now... we no longer have the familiar feeling we had during the day... Maybe it was really an illusion..."

Grindelwald waved his hand and let the four people leave.

Grindelwald waited until they were far away before speaking solemnly, "Gottfried's wand was the gift I gave him when I recruited him. It was modified by a wand master. But... the wand I gave him was ebony, not cherry!"

"Oh... poor Mr. Martin..." Li Weide said with pity.

Suddenly, Li Weide said again: "No, it should be more than just Mr. Martin. The other three should also be people from parallel worlds. However, the difference between the other three people may not be in their wands. The reason... is that they all have a common friend who is gradually being forgotten!"

"Well, now we have a new conclusion!"

With the new discovery, Li Weide looked very excited.

"In addition to the reasons we mentioned earlier that can cause parallel worlds to appear, there is also the possibility that the same person in a parallel world, for some reason, such as standing in the same position, may be replaced when the parallel world's passage disappears."

"If there are people or things in another world that exist but not in our world."

"And those who happen to be swapped over, who previously remembered this person or thing, will have their memories of that person or thing from the other world slowly disappear after the passage between parallel worlds closes..." "Because, just like different timelines, that person or thing doesn't exist in our world! So, after the passage closes, that part of the memory will gradually disappear."

"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility of memory recovery. For example, if the two parallel worlds intersect again... I can't confirm this yet!"

Because the same person appears, but the wand becomes different.

At this time, Grindelwald, who had originally doubted Levid's speculation about the parallel world, now couldn't help but believe it.

“I just hope that in that parallel world that Gottfried accidentally went to… [I] won’t be too suspicious…” Grindelwald sighed deeply.

After all, they are two parallel worlds. God knows what the differences are?
What if the self in that world is still a cruel and suspicious person? If Gottfried shows any difference, he might be mistaken for a fake and killed...

"Memory...parallel world..." Li Weide fell into deep thought again.

Dumbledore looked at the two people in front of him with different expressions and couldn't help but sigh.

"In any case, this matter ends here! Regardless of the truth behind the parallel world... the appearance of multiple selves is never a good thing! Grindelwald, you should store the dark creatures separately to prevent a situation like today from happening again. Vader... although this is a very interesting topic, it's best that you stop researching it... I have a feeling that continuing this research will cause serious problems."

Dumbledore's words were tantamount to putting the final nail in the coffin of the matter.

However, Levid and Grindelwald had to admit that although this was a bit conservative, it was also the safest method.

Grindelwald doesn't want to be accidentally switched to another parallel world. If that happens, all his efforts for so long may be wasted.

Li Weide also didn't want to see another Li Weide appear in front of him.

No one knows himself better than himself...

So, apart from Grindelwald staying in the Forbidden Forest and continuing to have people scatter those dark creatures throughout the Forbidden Forest.

Dumbledore and Lewd returned to Hogwarts Castle.

In the castle hall, Dumbledore asked Lewd to go back to the dormitory to rest first. After seeing Lewd's back disappear around the corner of the corridor, Dumbledore took out the Marauder's Map.

At this time, in the Forbidden Forest, the names of the Witch Party were divided into several groups and dispersed throughout the Forbidden Forest.

Dumbledore focused his attention on the original location of the Chamber of Secrets...

At this point, Slytherin's name had disappeared.

Dumbledore frowned. "Could it be that... this Slytherin ghost also occasionally comes from a parallel world? When the parallel world channel disappears, this Slytherin will return to the original world? But... there are no dark creatures in the Chamber of Secrets now?"

After thinking for a while, Dumbledore finally decided to go to the Chamber of Secrets.

This matter was also very strange. He really couldn't feel at ease unless he saw it with his own eyes!

……

When Li Weide returned to the dormitory, no one was there.

It was only seven o'clock in the evening. Tom should be in the library, while Henry and Alphard should be practicing spells in the club.

Li Weide lay on the bed tiredly, holding his wand.

Looking at the green bed curtains, his mind was full of thoughts about parallel worlds...

Finally, Levid sat up, and a wisp of white mist emerged from the tip of his wand.

White mist rose and gradually dissipated into the air...

……

Chamber of Secrets.

Dumbledore easily opened the blocked path.

After a while, they arrived at the secret room.

The secret room was pitch black, without a single ghost in sight...

However, as soon as Dumbledore entered the Chamber of Secrets, he smelled a familiar odor.

Dumbledore was a little confused for a moment.

However, the secret room is underground and there are many sewers around it, so it is not surprising that there is a strange smell.

Dumbledore raised his wand to illuminate the area, then carefully examined his surroundings.

Suddenly, Dumbledore squatted down beside a stone pillar in surprise.

Under the dim white light emitted by the magic wand, a pool of fresh chicken manure was clearly visible!

So it smells like chicken manure? And it's so fresh?

Someone is raising chickens in a secret room?!
Slytherin... raising chickens... what does he want to do?
Dumbledore's expression suddenly became serious!
