Hogwarts: Why do you call me the Demon King?

At the entrance of the Hog's Head pub, Snape overheard half of what happened and went back to report it to Voldemort, which led to Voldemort leading his men to attack the Potter family and kill the Potters.

"If I remember correctly, there should be two children who fit this prophecy, right?"

Doesn't Neville Longbottom of the Longbottom family fit the bill?

"Professor, how can you be so sure the trump card is Harry?"

When Isaac mentioned this, Dumbledore's expression suddenly came to life, and he winked at Isaac.

"No, Isaac, this trump card wasn't decided by me. It was Tom who chose it."

He chose Harry, and he failed because of Harry.

He made Harry the savior of the wizarding world—that's why Harry became the trump card against Tom.

Dumbledore met two and a half prophets in his lifetime.

Grindelwald is one, Isaac is one, and Trelawney is half.

Over the decades, Dumbledore finally figured out the difference between a full prophet and a half-prophet.

If Grindelwald and Isaacs can be considered the behind-the-scenes directors of the wizarding world, then Sybil Trelawney is at best a spoiler who has seen the script.

The biggest difference between the two is that prophets like Isaac and Grindelwald will arrange the magical world in the direction they want.

But Trelawney could only describe what she saw.

In the realm of prophets, Trelawney may be a "half-finished product," but what she says is, in a sense, an unchangeable reality.

She could predict a person's death, but whether a person dies a violent death the next day or dies of old age, both are forms of death.

Death will eventually happen, but it can lead to different outcomes for a person.

After hearing half of the prophecy, Voldemort chose Harry Potter as his destined rival.

Who would have thought that Harry's mother would give him a cheat code right after he was born?

Isaac nodded thoughtfully. This was the power of fate, and also the power of the heart.

The entire wizarding world believes that Harry is the savior who will kill Voldemort, and if Harry is on the path to doing so, he will be on a winning streak.

Everyone in the wizarding world thought Harry's "savior" would happen at the moment of his birth, but fate had other plans and Harry was destined to actually kill Voldemort.

That's why Harry is Dumbledore's trump card.

"I understand. Don't worry, Dumbledore, I will take good care of him."

Isaac understood what Dumbledore meant.

Dumbledore had already guessed that Isaac had his own plans, and he also knew that Isaac had deliberately not found all the Horcruxes.

Dumbledore had no intention of stopping Isaac from doing what he wanted; Dumbledore knew very well that no one could truly stop a prophet.

Most importantly, he personally imprisoned the first Dark Lord and then led his men to cripple the second Dark Lord.

He really didn't want to create a third Dark Lord.

This is far too cruel for an elderly person who wants to die.

Harry was Dumbledore's trump card for Isaac—if Isaac messed up, then Harry would be the one to fight Voldemort to the death.

Chapter 119: Basic moral values ​​do not allow this to happen.

What does Harry mean to Isaac?

It means an old friend you've never met, and also like a child you've watched grow up.

Stripping away the filter that Harry Potter brought to Harry, for Isaac, Harry himself was the orphan of a hero.

His parents were heroes who bravely stood up against the tyranny of terrorists, and Harry was the child they didn't have time to raise.

Perhaps for the entire British magical community, the name Harry Potter is inextricably linked with the savior.

But for Isaac, the Harry he knew had absolutely nothing to do with the Savior.

What is Dumbledore's true nature?

He is the White Demon King who can say "for the greater good".

This means that Dumbledore would be willing to sacrifice Harry, and even himself, for the greater good.

As it turns out, if sacrificing oneself could bring greater benefits, even if it was what Dumbledore considered greater, the old man would not hesitate for a moment.

Is Isaac going to tell Dumbledore in the headmaster's office that a hero's orphan shouldn't have to bear the fate of fighting the Dark Lord?

Come on.

Dumbledore, who was over a hundred years old, may not have eaten more salt than Isaac, but he certainly ate more sugar than Isaac.

What principle doesn't he understand?

Dumbledore understood all of this, and he knew it all, but he just didn't care.

In fact, Dumbledore was not a soft-hearted wizard.

When his sister hinders his progress, Dumbledore feels that his sister is a burden.

When Grindelwald was putting into practice the ideas he had put forward with Dumbledore, Dumbledore felt that he was doing something wrong and did not hesitate to send people, or even go to stop him himself.

Would Dumbledore still think back to those passionate days in Godric's Hollow in the quiet of the night?

Young Dumbledore was truly a man of unwavering resolve. Could it be that his heart softened as he grew older?

Isaac knew very well that Dumbledore had simply become more tactful and was thinking more deeply about things.

His thinking was never limited to Hogwarts, a magic school, or the small British magical community.

Dumbledore said Harry was the trump card, so that's good.

But ultimately, this trump card is in Isaac's own hands; whether he uses it or not is entirely up to him.

As for Dumbledore's mentorship of Harry...

Isaac thought there was nothing wrong with it.

Dumbledore's existence fully demonstrates that in the wizarding world, the greater the power of a spell, the more reasonable its pronouncements become.

To live a good life in the magical world, having great strength can help you avoid a lot of trouble.

This is not a bad thing for Harry.

We can't stop him from studying properly just because he's the child of a hero.

-----------------

When I left the principal's office, it was almost lunchtime.

The Christmas atmosphere at Hogwarts, the magic school that trains wizards, is also very strong.

As soon as Isaac entered the dining hall, he was spotted by Hufflepuff students who stayed on campus, and then he was surrounded and led to the Hufflepuff's long table.

Harry and Ron happened to witness this scene.

The moment Harry and Ron saw Isaac, all four of their eyes lit up.

“Harry, I suddenly have a very bold idea,” Ron murmured, gripping Harry’s shoulders.

“Ron, I’m just as daring as you.” Harry immediately retorted to Ron.

The two of them were filled with the excitement and relief of struggling students seeing a top student pass by.

Harry and Ron quickly finished their lunch, and as soon as Isaac got up, the two of them ran to stop him.

"Oh, Harry, Ron. Merry Christmas..." Isaac began his greeting, then, seeing the expressions on the faces of the two Gryffindors, added.

"Well, it seems like you two didn't have a happy Christmas?"

"By the way, where's Hermione? Did you two have a fight?"

Before Christmas, Harry's little gang... the little group was already pretty much formed.

The main members are Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

Sometimes Neville would join them, but more often the three of them would act together.

Given Hermione's "previous record" of secretly hiding in the bathroom to cry in the original story, Isaac thought that the Gryffindor ostracism had finally arrived.

"Argue? Who dares to argue with Hermione?!" Ron's expression was exaggerated, as if he thought, "Dude, do you even know what you're saying?"

"To be honest, almost the entire grade uses Hermione's homework as a reference. Who would be so foolish as to offend her?"

I, for one, wouldn't dare.

Ron's actions couldn't be called bullying the weak and fearing the strong; they were more like repaying a debt of gratitude. Isaac felt that Ron's words made perfect sense.

In Gryffindor, there might be people who dislike Hermione, but it's not to the point of bullying her.

Look at who she usually hangs out with.

Harry Potter, the savior of the wizarding world and a famous figure in the entire wizarding world.

Ron Weasley, a prominent figure in the British wizarding world and a member of House Weasley, one of the Twenty-Eight Holy Families.

There are three Weasleys at Hogwarts who share the same surname and family as Ron, and they are all prominent figures in their senior years, one of whom is a prefect.

Even though Hermione might be targeted because of her "nerdy" and "meddlesome" traits, given the composition of her friends, as long as these people aren't mentally unstable, they won't easily target her.
