Chapter 761
"Headmaster..."
Harry subconsciously looked at Dumbledore.
Dumbledore frowned.
He said gravely: "It's very clear that Darren doesn't want to go back. The moment his physical body died, he closed himself off."
"Here, he only has his conscience and instincts left. It seems that if we want to bring him back, the only thing left is to defeat Voldemort!"
Harry looked at Dumbledore in disbelief.
He hadn't expected that he would have to fight Voldemort in reality, and upon coming into the Resurrection Stone, he would have to fight Voldemort again...

"It's you!"
Dumbledore and Harry said they were going to fight Voldemort, but before they could even move, Snape had already come face-to-face with Voldemort.
Voldemort turned his head.
"Severus, it seems you've come to this place too. I heard he also has your bloodline, so you should take him first, don't lose him!"
He stepped aside, revealing Darren behind him.
Darren stood there, pretending to have no expression.
This made Snape reveal a look of vigilance.
"What did you do to him?"
He pulled Darren over.
Voldemort's expression was a bit sour.
But he still said mockingly: "How would I know what I did to him? And I don't know how Dumbledore, knowing full well he was just a bloodline container, could let him go to his death!"
"Also, letting him die at my hands really does increase their chances of winning!"
Voldemort said indignantly.
His face was extremely angry.
It seemed that just thinking about it made him feel disgusted. Darren wanted to laugh a little.
But he held it in.
Dumbledore probably also felt that Voldemort's idea was problematic; he finally walked out from the side with Harry.
"Tom, you're wronging me by saying that. Darren just hates your bloodline too much. You should think about why you make him hate you so much?"
"It's you, Dumbledore, you're dead too!"
Voldemort saw Dumbledore.
A look of schadenfreude rose on his face.
"Strange, you're dead, yet you have more emotions. Indeed, the incompleteness of the soul has a great impact on you."
Dumbledore laughed.
Voldemort glared at him.
Then, thinking that everyone was already dead, he calmed down again.
Then he fixed his gaze on Harry.
This was a surprise.
He hadn't expected that he hadn't killed Harry, yet Harry had died on his own.
"Who killed you? Bellatrix? Lucius? Greyback?"
Voldemort asked curiously.
Harry didn't speak.
He looked at Dumbledore hesitantly. He didn't know how he should answer.
Dumbledore laughed.
He didn't explain the question, but instead curiously sized up Voldemort.
Then he was surprised.
"After death, the soul really becomes complete?"
Voldemort's face turned cold.
He cursed angrily: "Insidious! Dumbledore, you faked your death to let them destroy my Horcruxes. You want me dead that badly?"
"Sorry, Tom. If the wizards killed by you and your subordinates could come back to life, I wouldn't have made such a decision."
"After all, watching my own bloodline suffer so much, enduring all kinds of horrific injuries, and I have no way to intervene."
"This kind of pain, Tom, you should understand better, right?"
Dumbledore's appearance at this moment didn't look like a murderer who had just killed Voldemort, but rather like a nanny discussing parenting with Voldemort.
This made Voldemort both angry and furious.
He blurted out subconsciously: "Isn't that so? This stupid child, I still don't understand why he had to get involved in these things?"
"Haven't I given him enough over the years? I never yelled at him once, and yet look at him!"
"After learning he had my bloodline, he actually did something like this. If he weren't acting like a little fool right now, I would definitely kill him!"
Voldemort made threats.
But seeing how he had been pulling Darren along to find a way the moment he woke up, as if he were terrified of losing Darren, it was impossible to take his words as his true feelings.
Dumbledore laughed.
"Oh, Tom, I think you should know the reason why Darren did such a thing."
"For so many years, you never announced that he possessed your bloodline. Was it really because you were wary of me?"
Dumbledore mocked.
Voldemort's face froze.
"Yes, I was always worried he wouldn't be able to accept the fact, so I never told him."
"I didn't expect that just by not paying attention for a moment, who knew he would be killed by me..."
"Originally, before being killed by you, I was thinking that I still had his blood left, so even if he really died, I could resurrect him."
"I didn't expect... forget it. Since everyone is dead together, let's find a way quickly. This unknown path is indeed challenging. Perhaps, Dumbledore, I will truly defeat you!"
Voldemort sneered.
Then he looked at Snape and said: "Let's go, we're going to find a way, no need to waste time with them!"
Snape stood still.
He was holding Darren.
Voldemort stood in front of him.
He revealed a mocking smile: "Snape, you aren't planning to betray me just because I killed you, are you?"
"I'm sorry, he has always been serving us!"
Dumbledore said softly.
He pulled Harry closer to Snape.
They seemed to be joining up with Snape.
Voldemort watched their movements, and finally, he guessed it.
"You aren't dead?"
His tone made it impossible to tell what kind of emotion he was feeling.
"Yes, this is the space of the Resurrection Stone. This is the foundation for resurrection I prepared for Darren. If he really died, his soul would be trapped inside, waiting for my rescue."
"And you, for some reason, appeared here. Perhaps it's because Darren took away your soul fragment?"
Dumbledore said softly. Voldemort stood blankly on the spot.
For a long time.
He took a step forward.
Harry quickly blocked Darren.
He was worried Voldemort wouldn't let Darren leave.
Voldemort scoffed.
He didn't continue forward, but instead said softly: "If he can come back to life, let him excise my bloodline."
"Lord Voldemort also disdains him possessing Lord Voldemort's bloodline. If you don't know how to do it..."
Harry opened his mouth.
He stared blankly at Voldemort.
On the surface, Voldemort seemed to be saying he disdained letting Darren possess his bloodline.
In reality, Voldemort was probably worried that even if Darren came back to life, he would die because he possessed his bloodline.
He quickly turned back to look at Dumbledore's expression.
Then he found that Dumbledore's expression was also somewhat incredible.
Even Dumbledore hadn't expected Voldemort to say such a thing.
Clearly, Voldemort had been good to Darren precisely because Darren possessed his bloodline, yet in the end...
Voldemort seemed to see through his thoughts and said disdainfully: "Lord Voldemort does what he wants; he doesn't need to explain to you."
"And with his personality, Lord Voldemort doesn't think he is worthy of being Lord Voldemort's bloodline. You take him away yourselves; I don't want to see him again!"
Voldemort said.
But his eyes didn't leave Darren.
Finally, Voldemort said as if complaining: "Hurry up, take this little bastard and leave!"
"By the way, it seems there is a little girl there; she has been sleeping the whole time."
"If you are leaving, take her with you too. It's clearly the Resurrection Stone, how can anyone come in?"
