Chapter 1536: You Are Still Too Stupid!!
"My brother was someone who liked to play tricks even when he was on our mother's lap.
In the eyes of some people, he shone brightly, but he wasn't very liked by our mother.
Mother liked me the most; only I could get Mother's affection."
This sounded a bit like a little boy showing off.
Harry wanted to laugh a little.
But suddenly thinking of Darren, he couldn't laugh anymore.
"When my sister was six years old, she was seen using magic by three Muggle boys.
At that time, she couldn't control her magic... she was attacked by those three Muggle boys.
At that time, she was still young; she couldn't fully tell those boys that this was magic... those boys crawled in through the hedge.
In their eyes, they might have just wanted to stop the little monster from transforming and then hurting them."
Hermione covered her mouth.
She looked at Darren.
Darren seemed to have discovered nothing.
He was like a very good listener; he listened to Aberforth's narration.
Except that the corners of his eyes were a bit red.
"What they did ruined her; she could never recover to normal. The magic turned inward, driving her crazy.
She became an Obscurial..."
Harry suddenly turned his head to look at Darren.
He remembered that Darren seemed to be an Obscurial! Darren didn't say a word.
He didn't turn his head to look at Harry.
He pretended to be very calm while listening to Aberforth.
Aberforth watched his eyes turn red.
"She was still that cute and well-behaved... but when the Obscurus acted up, she couldn't control herself; she became dangerous.
My father taught those three Muggle boys a lesson, and then he was locked in Azkaban.
He didn't say anything, because if he had told them about Ariana's situation, Ariana would have been imprisoned in St. Mungo's Hospital for life.
She was an Obscurial, her Obscurus was uncontrollable... according to Ministry of Magic regulations, she had to be locked up so she wouldn't hurt people.
We moved, and our mother tried her best to give her the most normal life. She liked me the most; only I could make her quiet.
Later she was fourteen... that was an accident, she couldn't control herself... our mother died..."
Harry suddenly didn't want to listen anymore.
He didn't want to hear about Darren's possible life.
He didn't want to hear what Darren would have become if he hadn't come to the magical world, but Aberforth didn't stop.
"At that time, Albus and others were going on a graduation trip, but because of Mother's funeral, he stayed behind... as the head of the family, I spit!
At first he did very well, and he was very good to us... he seemed very patient... later that person came...
That's right, it was Grindelwald. Your image of him has shattered, right!
He was just associating with that Dark Lord; they had great ideals; they wanted to establish a greater system...
He started to dislike Ariana; he probably felt that we were dragging him down, preventing him from walking toward that plan together...
A few weeks later, I had enough.
I rushed at him, and I argued with him face to face. I told him he couldn't move Ariana around just for his plans...
But Grindelwald told me that as long as their plan succeeded, wizards wouldn't have to hide and be afraid of being discovered anymore...
And there wouldn't be another situation like my poor sister's.
During our argument, I was hit by Grindelwald's Cruciatus Curse, and Albus blocked him... in short, we fought...
Ariana was terrified; she wanted to help... she died. None of us knew who had actually done it; it was too chaotic...
Grindelwald ran away the next day, and Albus—he was finally liberated; he had gotten rid of Ariana..."
Aberforth's words were interrupted.
Darren said softly: "I remember, when we were by the lake, Dumbledore drank that bottle of poison, and he kept shouting not to hurt you...
In our first year, he told us that he saw wool socks in the Mirror of Erised... this must have been his nightmare for a lifetime!"
