Chapter 53, Rank C completed with regret! Fusion with a Rank B wand!
Chapter 53, Rank C completed with regret! Fusion with a Rank B wand!
Dudley is a man who listens to advice.
Since the system had said so, he suppressed his curiosity about this unprecedented SSS-level regrettable event.
Although the other two Deathly Hallows, the Invisibility Cloak and the Elder Wand, are currently in Dumbledore's possession, it doesn't seem like Dudley would have much difficulty obtaining them to unlock the details of the Regretful Events. However, he hasn't yet asked Dumbledore for them.
The Invisibility Cloak is a Potter family heirloom; Dumbledore will give it to Harry sooner or later, and Harry's things are also his things, so he'll get them eventually.
But the Elder Wand is a different story.
Dumbledore is still young at heart, full of energy, and in excellent condition these days.
The Elder Wand, which can greatly amplify the power of spells, is still very useful in his hands, and may not necessarily be given to Dudley.
Dudley has already gotten a great deal by relying on Old Dumbledore's efforts to collect most of Voldemort's Horcruxes.
If someone asks for a powerful weapon that suits their needs, even if Dumbledore is easy to talk to, he will inevitably become wary of them.
So, let's leave it for now.
An SS-level unfortunate incident has stumped him and Dumbledore, and they don't know when it will be resolved.
The SSS-level regret event, which was specifically emphasized by the system for its difficulty, is obviously very difficult to complete.
Let's wait for the right opportunity or a necessary moment when we have no other choice before unlocking it!
Dudley made a decision to put the matter aside.
He then put the Resurrection Stone and the Horcrux Slytherin's locket into his personal storage space, while the sealed diary and Gauntlet ring were chained to his body and carried with him at all times.
Aside from the three Horcruxes made from the Hogwarts founder's heirloom, Dudley planned to carry the rest of the Horcruxes with him at all times, in case Voldemort's main soul accidentally died outside and could only be reborn in Harry's body, thus harming Harry.
August 16th.
Dumbledore completed interviews with several professor candidates at Hogwarts.
Ultimately, it was decided that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for the 1991 term would be Ecclesiastes Hunter, a distinguished witch who had returned from overseas.
Of course, if this excellent witch can survive a year unscathed under Voldemort's curse, she can continue to be the professor the following year.
On the same day, when Dumbledore came to the Dursleys' house to give a lesson, he brought Dudley Ravenclaw's crown, which was hidden in the Room of Requirement at Hogwarts.
Dudley, right in front of Dumbledore, put it into his personal space.
At this point, of the Horcruxes that Voldemort intentionally or unintentionally created in the original story, only the giant snake Nagini remains unacquired.
According to the original story's timeline, Voldemort would not turn Nagini into his Horcrux until three years later.
In other words, barring any unforeseen circumstances, all of Voldemort's Horcruxes are currently in Dudley's possession or with him.
Dudley didn't tell Dumbledore this news, which was neither good nor bad, nor did he know if it was 100% accurate.
Instead, the goal was to keep Old Deng in a state of high alert, ensuring he didn't slack off or let his guard down.
Therefore, Dumbledore thoroughly shared all the information he knew about Voldemort with Dudley.
Together with Dudley, they analyze Voldemort's background, past experiences, insane personality, behavior, and life goals, hoping to uncover more of Voldemort's weaknesses and the location of the unknown Horcruxes.
Dudley could not analyze the unknown Horcruxes, but he did have some ideas about Voldemort's weakness, and even the common weakness of most cruel dark wizards, and the methods to counter this weakness.
He happily shared with Dumbledore the plan they had come up with to implement the application.
In the days that followed, Dumbledore devoted more of his energy to teaching the Dursleys.
It must be said that the Ironclad Charm and Disarming Charm were a bit too difficult for the Dursleys, who only had the bloodline of a low-level wizard.
Dudley, Harry, and Hagrid have become very proficient with these two spells.
When Dumbledore was not around, he would uphold the spirit of "those who know first will help those who don't" and patiently help the Dursleys learn.
Time passed by day by day.
August 27th.
Hagrid cut short his studies at the Dursleys' small classroom and returned to his cottage outside Hogwarts Castle.
Dudley had already written to the Gringotts goblins, instructing them to deliver a male and a female adult Norwegian Spinosaurus to the edge of the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts, as agreed.
Hagrid needs to go back early to clear a large open space and build a dragon house.
It will be easier to get things done before Hogwarts starts school and students disturb us.
Dumbledore has already filed a report with the Ministry of Magic, guaranteeing with his power and reputation that the dragon will not harm anyone else.
The Ministry of Magic, under Kingsley's leadership, granted Dumbledore's request without hesitation, and Hagrid's dream of raising dragons was about to come true.
On the same day, Dali received a system reward at home.
[Congratulations, host! You have successfully resolved a Class C unfortunate incident – the half-giant who was wrongfully expelled from school!]
The host used sharp insights and venomous language to stimulate, guide, and change Albus Dumbledore, the great wizard of the twentieth century.
This transformed him from a mild and compromising individual into a hard and decisive one. He used ruthless methods to dismiss the disobedient Minister of Magic, establishing his authority, silencing most dissenting voices, and becoming the true White Demon King.
After gaining power, the White Lord, based on his host's request and his own guilt and pity for Hagrid, publicly exonerated Hagrid, clearing Hagrid of his years of injustice.
Later, at the host's request, he even held private classes to teach Hagrid spellcasting, making up for Hagrid's regret of dropping out midway.
This unfortunate incident has been resolved perfectly.
[Special offer, fixed reward: 1 C-level fusion opportunity.]
[Bonus Reward: 1 C-Rank Fusion Opportunity.]
[Currently possesses: 3 opportunities to fuse C-grade magic items.]
After receiving the system's notification, Dali's face lit up with joy.
He could have claimed the reward for this regrettable event much earlier, but if he had claimed it earlier, Hagrid wouldn't have fully absorbed Dumbledore's teachings, and the regrettable event wouldn't have been resolved perfectly.
The extra reward will not be the top-tier C-level fusion opportunity.
Today is the best time to collect it.
"System, combine 3 C-level fusion opportunities into 1 B-level fusion opportunity to fuse Quirrell's Cracked Wand for me!"
Dali sent instructions to the system using his mind.
The B-grade magical item, Quirrell's Cracked Wand, which was in his personal storage space, instantly turned into an invisible wave and disappeared.
It becomes one with Duli itself!
[Command executed! Consumes 1 B-rank fusion opportunity.]
[Current remaining fusion opportunities: None.]
