Hogwarts: Who uses a crowbar in wizard duels?

A curse that curses all curses.

This is not some kind of magic spell that can break the curse.

It is essentially a new curse.

It is equally dangerous and deadly.

Curses are like viruses; they have an incubation period and an outbreak period.

This curse will always lurk on a person or thing. Once the person or thing is harmed by other curses, this curse will enter its outbreak period and devour the other curses.

This process may be accompanied by pain and torment, until the curse completely devours all other curses before it re-enters the incubation period.

Unless another curse appears, this curse will remain in its latent state indefinitely.

As for the side effects, the curse will continuously erode energy.

If it attaches to an inanimate object, unless it is maintained daily, the object will decay rapidly until it disappears completely, and the curse will also disappear along with it.

If it attaches to a living thing, it's much simpler: eat more, drink more water, produce less waste, and won't get fat.

Kevin could already foresee the Malfoy family turning into gluttons.

What do you think we'll do when they get old and can't eat anymore?

Intravenous infusion!

Kevin had no choice; a curse couldn't be harmless, otherwise it wouldn't be a curse.

Simply put, if there are other curses, then this is your firewall; if there are no other curses, then this is your biggest curse.

Now that the curse has been cast, it's time to put a plan to deal with the Malfoy family on the agenda.

Just as Kevin and Dumbledore were discussing whether to force their way into Malfoy Manor or sneak in, there was a frantic banging on the headmaster's office door.

"Professor Dumbledore! Kevin!"

Harry's voice came from outside the door.

Seeing this, Dumbledore waved his hand, and the door opened. Harry was leaning against the door, and as soon as it opened, he stumbled and rushed in.

"Professor, Kevin, I... I think I've found Helena."

Upon hearing Harry's words, Dumbledore and Kevin both stood up.

Harry immediately continued.

"She was actually always at Hogwarts, right in the Ravenclaw tower."

Everyone called her Lady Gray.

When the Grey Lady was mentioned, Dumbledore immediately thought of the perpetually melancholic female ghost who had been at Hogwarts longer than he had ever been.

He also didn't know Ms. Gray's past identity.

"It was Luna who gave me the clue, telling me to ask the ghosts that have been at Hogwarts for a long time if they know anything about the Ravenclaw tiara."

"So I found the Grey Lady, and she was behaving very strangely, very agitated, very angry, and vehemently denied knowing anything about the Ravenclaw tiara."

"I found it strange, so I casually called out Helena's name to see what would happen, and she actually reacted. She turned around and looked at me in surprise, and then disappeared."

Dumbledore and Kevin were both quite surprised to hear Harry's words.

Unexpectedly, Helena, the ghost who knew the key clues to the Ravenclaw crown, was actually at Hogwarts.

If that's the case, then what Draco is looking for hidden in the Room of Requirement, could it be Ravenclaw's tiara?

The simplest way is to get Draco to find something; if it's a diadem, then they won't need to try to get information out of Helena.

If not, that would be even better.

They had actually already reported to Dumbledore about Draco's frequent visits to the Room of Requirement.

So Dumbledore knew about this and agreed to Kevin and the others' request not to interfere with Draco for the time being, but only to keep a secret watch on him.

Now, hearing Harry's information, he, like Kevin, guessed that Draco's purpose in going to the Room of Requirement might be to hide Ravenclaw's tiara there.

Dumbledore pondered for a moment, then spoke slowly.

"Harry, I think you've all been to that place where everything is kept. Now I want you to go back in there and search for the Ravenclaw tiara."

"Of course, it's also possible that the tiara isn't there at all, but that's okay. As long as Draco keeps going in and out of the Room of Requirement, keep going in to look for it."

Harry nodded after listening; he could quickly figure out the connection between the Ravenclaw tiara and Draco's actions.

As Dumbledore's magic flowed, the image of Ravenclaw's crown appeared before them.

As for why he's called Harry, it's simple: in that vast warehouse, only Harry, who is connected to Horcruxes, could find a small crown quickly.

"If you really find the crown, don't make a fuss about it, don't let anyone know, it's for Draco's good."

If word gets out that Harry found the tiara, it means Draco's mission has failed, and he will likely face Voldemort's wrath.

Harry understood this as well, nodded to Kevin, and left the headmaster's office.

He needed to find the crown as soon as possible; if Voldemort took it, who knew where he would hide it next time?

Dumbledore then looked at Kevin: "Kevin, once your curse is placed on someone, will it immediately erase any other curses on that person?"

"No, if the curse on him is in its latent phase and hasn't been activated, it won't be eliminated immediately."

Kevin shook his head and said.

"Yes, according to the information you gathered before, the curse on Draco should be controlled remotely by Voldemort, but Voldemort will torture Draco from time to time."

"If you want to save their family, you'd better cast your curse on them within half a day."

"If Voldemort suddenly casts a curse, causing one of the people to be cursed and then killed, Voldemort will immediately notice and then, in a fit of desperation, kill the other two."

Kevin knew this too, but the problem was that Draco's parents had been staying at Malfoy Manor and hadn't come out at all.

That place was not easy to sneak into. Even Rita was very careful when she discovered that the Malfoys had been inside all along.

"Professor, do you have any way to lure Voldemort out?"

Kevin's idea was to have Dumbledore lure Voldemort out so he could sneak into Malfoy Manor and rescue Draco's parents.

"Well, at this stage, the only thing that can lure Voldemort out is probably something related to Horcruxes."

"Oh, by the way, maybe we could try the prophecy orb you brought from the Ministry of Magic last time..."

Needless to say, Dumbledore understood Kevin's meaning and spoke slowly.

Everyone knows that Voldemort wanted the prophecy orb, but in the movie, the orb shattered, so Voldemort stopped caring.

But the prophecy orb is still with Harry, so perhaps Voldemort hasn't given up yet.

But would Voldemort really be so fixated on that prophecy?

This topic also reminded Kevin of the locket incident.

"Headmaster, Voldemort doesn't know the locket has been switched yet. Perhaps we could pretend to go to the cave where the locket is hidden and lure Voldemort there?"

"Hmm, that's a good idea."

Dumbledore nodded after listening. Given Voldemort's personality, it was still possible for him to get through.

It simply meant to let Voldemort discover that the locket had already been switched.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so get ready, Kevin."

Dumbledore patted Kevin on the shoulder, seemingly about to say something, when a letter suddenly appeared in his office.

He waved his hand and the letter flew over, but Dumbledore paused when he saw the sender's name on the envelope.

"What's wrong, Principal?"

Seeing Dumbledore's strange reaction, Kevin asked curiously.

"No, it's nothing, just some old stories."

Seeing that Dumbledore didn't want to talk about it, Kevin didn't ask any further questions.
