Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Chapter 65: The resentment and anger in Ariana’s heart



Among the three Deathly Hallows mentioned in the book, the performance of the Resurrection Stone is far less impressive than the other two, and it is also the least consistent with the description in the legend of the three brothers.

The other two pieces of the Deathly Hallows, the Elder Wand and the Invisibility Cloak, both have powerful abilities consistent with the legend.Among them, the power of the Elder Wand is the most undoubted. The once-all-powerful Grindelwald and the famous Dumbledore are the best proof of its ability.

The invisibility cloak is also one of the biggest golden fingers for the protagonist in the original work. From the first to the last part, the invisibility cloak has protected Harry and others countless times on different occasions, and is worthy of the reputation of the Deathly Hallows.

Legend has it that the Resurrection Stone can bring the dead back to life, but in fact, the only one who uses the Resurrection Stone in the entire book is Harry Potter at the end of the story.After Harry turned the Resurrection Stone, what he summoned was only a phantom that was more real than the soul that only he could see.

As a member of the Deathly Hallows, this ability can be said to be very cheap, because if you just want to see the dead, there are many other ways in the wizarding world, such as the flashback spell of the twin wands, the Mirror of Erised, and letting the dead change themselves. Becoming a ghost or even talking to the portrait in the principal's office is more consistent with the concept of "resurrection" of the dead than the Resurrection Stone.

Dudley once speculated that there was a possibility that the owner of the Resurrection Stone did not fully know the true use of this sacred artifact?

After all, unlike the Elder Wand and Invisibility Cloak, which have other deteriorated substitutes in the wizarding world, the Resurrection Stone is a unique item in the wizarding world, and even the former owner, the Gaunt family, has not been able to recognize it for so many years.

Now, Dudley felt that his guess might be correct, because Ariana, who was wearing a resurrection stone ring in front of him, obviously perfectly matched the effect of the resurrection stone in the legend of the three brothers - a resurrection that was almost indistinguishable from a living person, and also There are resurrected people who are full of negative emotions.

"It seems that you are very close to the truth, Dudley Dursley." Ariana's beautiful eyes were full of sorrow and resentment, "Then you should be able to tell my dear brother, who am I and who am I?" What despicable person disturbed the peace after death."

Dumbledore looked at Dudley sideways, as if he wanted to ask Dudley for confirmation. Dudley couldn't bear to see the old man's almost pleading look, and finally decided to tell his suspicions.

"You are Ariana Dumbledore...or to be precise, Ariana summoned by the Resurrection Stone, one of the Deathly Hallows, and the person who summoned you is Albus Dumbledore!"

After hearing Dudley's answer, Dumbledore took a deep breath.Dudley thought Dumbledore would deny what he said, but Dumbledore was not as excited as he expected, and instead looked much calmer than before.

"To be precise, the summoner is me in the future, right." Dumbledore's mood has returned to calmness, and the wavering he felt when he first saw Ariana has disappeared. "Don't be surprised, Dudley, I have already expected you. Coming from a future different from ours... Of course, what I didn’t expect is that you are not the only time traveler.”

Dumbledore turned to look at Ariana, his old eyes full of love: "And I have never doubted whether I would do such a stupid thing if I encountered this opportunity. It seems that I have a very bad opinion of myself. To be precise, I am indeed not suitable to master such powerful power."

"But it's still very unreasonable!" Even so, Dudley still had a lot of questions in his mind, "What is summoned by the Resurrection Stone should only be seen by the summoner himself——"

"A sad substance that is more real than the soul and more illusory than the entity, right?" Dudley's words seemed to turn on a certain switch in Ariana, and her delicate face was quickly occupied by angry feelings, "Yes, when this selfish When my selfish brother summoned the sister he killed, I fell into this sad state of being neither human nor ghost."

"But both my luck and my misfortune are that when I was summoned, a soul was attached to the Resurrection Stone, a soul with powerful magic!"

It's a Horcrux!Dudley remembered that when Dumbledore tried to use the Resurrection Stone to summon Ariana, the Resurrection Stone was Voldemort's Horcrux, with the same power as Tom Riddle's diary, and a curse powerful enough to kill Dumbledore.

"When my brother discovered the evil soul attached to the ring, his first reaction was to destroy the Horcrux with the Sword of Gryffindor - at that moment, my existence merged with part of the remaining soul in the ring. Together, it is no longer a phantom that only the summoner can see, but a substance that truly exists in this world."

"But what I didn't expect was that my dear brother, the greatest wizard in the world, was only complacent because he destroyed the enemy's Horcrux. He never thought that his poor sister would be caught in the ring between this world and the other side. In this time, you can’t survive but you can’t die.”

Ariana looked at Dumbledore with eyes full of resentment and anger: "Then, my summoner devoted his remaining little life to fighting the enemy, and never thought about disturbing his peaceful sister again. Being locked up in a ring all the time - for the greater good, isn't it, that's quite the resemblance, Albus."

But Dumbledore accepted Ariana's questioning look calmly and said calmly: "I can almost guess what happened... I can apologize for everything I have done in the future, But I think you won’t accept it. But I still have a question, Ariana, how on earth did you break through the confinement of the ring and obtain a real body.”

"Huh, look, I knew you cared more about this." Ariana raised her eyebrows and stared at Dumbledore fiercely, "After I was finally abandoned by that boy to the Forbidden Forest, I waited for countless years. Then How desperate it is, my summoner is dead, but I can't go back because I merged with the real soul fragment. Until that day, that girl found me——"

"That's it, Ariana. You've delayed it long enough. You don't need to say any more."

A gloomy female voice suddenly sounded in the air. Dudley and Dumbledore immediately raised their wands and looked up vigilantly, but they saw a dazzling blue light shooting towards them.

Dumbledore immediately deployed a hemispherical barrier to protect Dudley, Norbert, and Snape and Pansy on the ground.But with a crisp sound of "Crack!", this dazzling blue light quickly enveloped the hemispherical barrier and turned into a solid block of ice.

Through the translucent ice cover, Dudley saw two figures appearing in mid-air, one was thin and wearing a hood, and the other was a mature woman with a voluptuous figure.
