Chapter 1596
He clapped his hands to let Harry sit down too.
He also wanted Ariana to sit down, but Ariana was trying to hug Darren to sit down.
When Darren sat down obediently, Ariana sat contentedly beside him, resting her chin on her hand, smiling as she looked at him.
Dumbledore sighed.
He didn't look at this scene that went against human ethics, but turned his head and nodded at Snape, then continued, "Since we have come here, there are still some things to clarify.
In reality, I wasn't too willing to say it, but here, I will explain everything thoroughly!"
Harry frowned.
"Didn't you say you were going to explain everything outside?"
"Clearly, our Headmaster always likes to keep an ace up his sleeve!"
Snape sneered.
He sat beside Darren.
Dumbledore pretended not to hear his words.
He said with a guilty conscience, "This is the final part. It's about Darren.
I didn't explain Darren's background clearly before, because if I explained Darren's origin carefully, even in the magical world, it would be quite shocking."
Dumbledore sighed.
Under Harry and the others' puzzled gazes.
He exhaled and continued, "It's like this, after we studied Darren's bloodline, Gellert and I encountered Salazar Slytherin, yes, the people you've heard of..."
Harry interrupted him.
"But they are already dead!"
"No, no, no, Harry, it's very easy for powerful wizards to achieve immortality; it's just that they all like to explore other worlds and don't want to stay here anymore."
Dumbledore explained.
"Don't interrupt me, I'll continue.
Salazar told me at the time that Darren also had his bloodline; yes, he even had the bloodlines of other founders.
We initially agreed that this might be because Harry absorbed magic and bloodlines that night, absorbing them...
But it's too un-magical; I think there are other reasons. Perhaps you are willing to tell us, Tom?"
Dumbledore looked at Voldemort.
Voldemort didn't want to pay attention to them.
But when it came to Darren, he became interested again.
He recalled.
"I think it does have to do with me. At the time, I was doing experiments; I found the old Slytherin house and discovered a few drops of blood inside.
Those drops of blood were extremely powerful; I thought I should extract them, so I brought them back to Malfoy Manor.
That day, there was a battle between the Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix, and my subordinate brought back Lily Potter.
Clearly, they were stained with many people's bloodlines. If your Boy-Who-Lived really could absorb bloodlines, he had the conditions to do it!"
