Chapter 1333

~6 min read 1,009 words

To prove their noble status.

The old wizard showed their family's obsidian ring, as well as the Slytherin locket.

Trying to make Ogden understand that they were the Gaunt family, descendants of Slytherin. During this time, Darren also carefully observed Grop.

She was a lady with a pale complexion and a relatively clean body.

However, her eyes were also staring in different directions, and she was particularly timid; she would tremble incessantly at every word from her father and Morfin.

All of this was relatively quiet before Tom Riddle came over.

But after Tom Riddle came over.

Grop's face became rosy.

Morfin told everyone that Grop watched Tom Riddle every day.

This enraged old Gaunt.

He almost strangled Grop.

Believing that his daughter pursuing a Muggle was a disgrace.

Ogden tried to save Grop but was attacked by Morfin.

He could only cast a bunch of messy spells from his wand, and only then did he run out.

After he went out, he ran into Tom Riddle.

This biological father of Voldemort.

However, it must be said.

Perhaps due to Grop's genetics, Voldemort was actually not as handsome as his father.

Because his father's face leaned more towards softness.

While Voldemort's face leaned towards coldness and cunning.

"Very good, let's end it here!"

Dumbledore pulled Harry and Darren out from inside.

Harry quickly asked, "What happened to that Grop?"

"She is still alive. Ogden went back and called a group of Aurors."

"They captured old Gaunt and Morfin. Because they attacked a Ministry of Magic employee, old Gaunt was sentenced to six months in prison, and Morfin was sentenced to three years!"

Dumbledore explained.

Then he looked at Darren.

"Darren, can you see anything?"

"I guess that the young man who appeared later should be Voldemort's father."

"I have seen the soul on Voldemort's diary; they are very similar."

"And Voldemort's mother, perhaps it is Grop, but I am wondering, how did those two get together?"

"It's obviously very mismatched, and that gentleman should have liked another girl."

"Very good, Darren, I am very happy that you followed my train of thought."

"That's right, Grop and that young man also named Tom Riddle are Voldemort's parents, and Marvolo is Voldemort's maternal grandfather."

"I am very happy that you noticed this; this means that perhaps you will be able to see more things, which might be very helpful for Harry to survive."

Darren revealed a smile.

However, he immediately continued to ask, "What did Grop do to Tom Riddle? Was it a love potion or the Imperius Curse?"

"I privately guess it was a love potion, because as you saw, Grop's wand usage was not that good."

Dumbledore said seriously.

Harry quickly continued to ask, "Then what happened to them? After all, Voldemort grew up in an orphanage."

"It is like this, that's right. According to the news I learned, Tom Riddle returned a year later."

"He said he had been poisoned, or had been affected by something strange."

"Actually, he should have said he was under a spell, but obviously no one believed him."

"Did the love potion wear off?"

"Perhaps it wore off... but I am more inclined to believe she stopped using it, which gave Tom Riddle the chance to run out..."

"Darren... are you sympathizing with her?"

"Yes!"

Darren said generously, "I am sympathizing with her. Clearly, what she did was wrong, and she did things that many people find shameful, but I just sympathize with her a little. If, if she hadn't been born into such a family, would everything have been different?"

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

Dumbledore sighed.

"Don't think about this question anymore. In any case... Darren, you must remember, we are studying history; all of this is history!"

"But that doesn't mean I can't sympathize with her!"

Darren revealed a smile.

Dumbledore shook his head helplessly, "Of course, of course, I have no way to stop you..."

"However, it is late now, you should return to your beds. I will notify you of the time for the next lesson!"

Dumbledore waved his hand.

Darren and Harry could only walk out of the office.

The sixth-year courses were indeed becoming complicated.

But for Darren, there was still no burden.

But for Harry and the others, it was much more difficult.

Because every professor was requiring them to use non-verbal spells.

Even Hermione, in Professor McGonagall's class, needed Professor McGonagall to explain it a few more times.

Harry's specialty course suddenly became Potions.

This was purely the help of the Half-Blood Prince.

This caused Hermione to be even angrier.

As for their relationship with Hagrid, it had of course also worsened.

Hagrid was angry that they didn't choose his course.

And they were busy and didn't have time to find Hagrid, which made Hagrid so angry that he swore in front of Darren that he would never pay attention to Harry and the others again.

When they met in the Great Hall, Hagrid would also turn and walk away.

On Saturday.

Hermione suggested that they should go see Hagrid during the two days off.

But Harry and Ron were both a bit cowardly.

They heard from Darren that the Care of Magical Creatures course was held in the Forbidden Forest, which filled them with relief.

Relief that they didn't choose Hagrid's course.

They didn't have to go into the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid.

As for Darren saying that the Forbidden Forest course was fun, this only made them feel that Darren was speaking for Hagrid.

Because Darren was always so kind.

In short, they generally believed now that Darren might have been dragged into the Forbidden Forest by Hagrid to teach Grop how to tie shoelaces!

What's more, Harry and Ron were indeed very busy.

This week, they also had to hold the Gryffindor Quidditch tryouts.

It might last for a long time.

"I don't know why, there are so many people for this Quidditch tryout; I have never seen so many people coming to compete!"

Harry complained.
