Chapter 369 A Double Harvest of Love and Family! Dumbledore, a Family Reunited!
【Congratulations to the host! 】
[Successfully resolved a Rank A regrettable incident - the unrequited love between a Blood Curse Orc and an adult Obscurial!]
[The host restored Nagini to human form and resurrected Aurelius. Through subtle words and manipulations, the host helped two lovers who had been separated for many years but were mutually attracted to each other to open their hearts and reunite.]
This unfortunate incident has been perfectly resolved!
[Special offer, fixed reward: 1 A-level fusion opportunity.]
[Bonus Reward: 1 A-Rank Fusion Opportunity.]
[Currently available magical item fusion opportunities: S-rank *6 time, A-rank *4 times, B-rank *6 times, C-rank *3 times.]
Unprecedented wealth!
Now, opening the system panel, apart from the exceptional SS-level and SSS-level special regret events, Dali only has three regular regret events in stock that haven't been resolved.
They are:
Neville – Suffering and Driven Insane Parents (Grade A)
Draco – A friendship between Draco and Harvard that began but ended in an instant (Level A)
Old Deng – The Forbidden Love of the Black and White Demon Kings (S-Rank)
The remaining unresolved issues for Draco and Dumbledore can only be left to fate; Dudley won't force them.
Dudley now has the ability to resolve Neville's unfortunate incident; a simple trip to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Arts would easily solve it and allow him to reap the maximum reward.
It can also help Neville completely eradicate the root of his suffering.
To prevent Neville's grandmother, that powerful old witch in the original story who could single-handedly injure Death Eaters, from casting the Oblivion Curse on Neville again after he had finally escaped the effects of the Oblivion Curse.
While Dali was already planning what to do next, the sweet situation of the couple being watched by the whole family also took a new turn.
Nagini whispered in Aurelius's ear, reminding him that those gathered there were their family and benefactors.
This brought Aurelius back to his senses. He turned around and saw his father Aberforth's slightly ashen face.
Aberforth was naturally thrilled and overjoyed by the resurrection of his son.
But... even though he became younger, as soon as his son was resurrected, he treated him like a nobody and ignored him, staring intently at his girlfriend.
In this situation, he couldn't possibly remain calm and unperturbed, showing no sign of being upset.
In addition, Aberforth already felt guilty and indebted to Aurelius, so he had to suppress his emotions at this moment.
Thinking of this, a little bit of jealousy and resentment showed on her face, turning it slightly ashen.
After making eye contact with his father, Aurelius belatedly realized that he had let go of Nagini and moved a little distance away from her.
Nagini had wanted to stay further away, as she was unsure of her place in facing Aurelius's elders.
Should we, as Dudley suggested before, call Mr. Aberforth "father-in-law" and Professor Dumbledore "uncle"?
This is also...
As Nagini was in a state of utter confusion, Aurelius grabbed her hand.
This action startled Nagini, who turned her head slightly and saw Aurelius's determined gaze, instantly clearing her mind of all distractions.
And so, Aurelius, holding Nagini's hand, slowly walked to his family.
Slightly awkward and stiff, but with a very clear attitude, she spoke to her family.
The awkwardness and stiffness stemmed from the fact that Aurelius had rarely interacted with these family members in the past.
Even his own father, Aberforth, had only spent a few short years with him before his death, and now he had suddenly become younger.
Uncle Albus, although one of the key figures who guided him to enlightenment and back to the right path, is someone we don't see often, and he looks younger now.
As for other relatives, there's no need to mention them; I've never even met them.
In a way, this moment is both a reunion and a first encounter.
His attitude was very clear, naturally referring to his relationship with Nagini.
He had already decided that Nagini would be his wife, and there was no room for ambiguity or hesitation. He had to introduce Nagini to his family as his fiancée.
If his own family members did not accept Nagini, Aurelius was even prepared to elope with her.
Fortunately, no one in the Dumbledore family objected to the marriage.
Ariana kept calling him "nephew Aurelius."
It seems she really likes her nephew.
Aurelius was somewhat unaccustomed to suddenly having a fourteen-year-old aunt, and could only manage a stiff smile in response.
Afterwards, Aurelius learned the reason for his resurrection and the reason why Nagini reversed the effects of the Blood Curse during the conversation, and even led Nagini over to thank Dali.
This expression of gratitude is equally sincere.
Dudley raised his hand and patted Aurelius's bicep, praising him with a smile, "Good lad! Clear attitude, firm resolve! I believe in you!"
Aurelius's expression froze again.
No matter how tall and strong Dudley is, it doesn't change the fact that he's only twelve years old. You can still tell from his face that he's a minor.
It would be strange if Aurelius didn't freeze up when praised so maturely by a child.
To Aurelius's surprise, he was about to find himself in an even more awkward situation.
Dudley turned to Ariana, who was sitting on Aberforth's arm, and said, "Miss Ariana, you not only have a nephew today, but also a nephew's wife. Aren't you happy?"
"Yay! My niece-in-law! My niece-in-law! Hugs, niece-in-law!"
Ariana happily stretched out her hands to Nagini, making the already blushing and shy Nagini even more embarrassed.
But Nagini couldn't resist Ariana's insistence, so he reached out and took Ariana from Aberforth's arms.
Aurelius watched the whole thing from the sidelines, repeatedly hesitating to speak, unsure whether to feel embarrassed or happy, and finally could only manage a helpless smile.
This made the whole family burst into laughter.
Dudley then casually restored the trees that grew alongside the graves of Old Deng's parents and nephew into a magic wand and handed it to Old Deng.
Because of the Obscurial, Ariana has never had a wand since childhood, and naturally, she doesn't have a companion tree to restore it now.
Afterwards, Dali secretly sent a message to Old Deng and quietly withdrew, concealing his merit and fame.
The content of the transmitted message is:
Ask Old Deng to go with him to the place where Ariana and Aurelius used to live in a couple of days. He's still quite interested in those two Obscurians.
These past few days, Old Deng has prioritized spending time with his family and cherishing family bonds.
After transmitting the message, Dali teleported back to No. 4 Privet Road and reunited with his parents.
And this day, in which so many important events took place, came to dusk.
After Dali left, Old Deng invited his whole family back to their old home in Godric Valley.
Unlike the Potter family's house, the Dumbledore family's former residence is still occasionally visited and tended to by old Dumbledore and Aberforth.
Therefore, although this place is not very popular and looks a bit old, it is still a place you can stay directly.
As for what happens next, whether to buy property for Aurelius and Nagini in Godric's Hollow or in Hogsmeade Village can be discussed further.
Anyway, the wizards have convenient transportation. Their houses have teleportation fireplaces, and a handful of Floo Powder can take them to Aberforth's Hog's Head pub in Hogsmeade.
Not to mention convenient magic and magical items like Apparition and Door Keys.
