Kapitel 118: Chapter 118: Dumbledore’s Temptation
"You're taking action, Tom. Let me see if you are the same person." Dumbledore put down the envelope in his hand and slowly sat back in his chair.
The phoenix was preening its beautiful feathers on the table.
People say Albus Dumbledore is the greatest wizard in the world. But sometimes he thought he might be the most sinful one.
The two terrible demons that have appeared in the past hundred years are closely related to him.
Of course, sometimes we have to admit that Gellert Grindelwald and Voldemort would have ended up on the same path with or without Dumbledore. And without Dumbledore to stop them, the world would only become a more miserable place.
Gellert will reshape the order of the wizarding and Muggle worlds, and the two sides will inevitably start a war. Grindelwald is a person who pays great attention to abilities. Perhaps he will find that young Tom Riddle has extraordinary talents and choose him as his successor. Or maybe the two sides are on opposite paths.
No matter which one it is, it is a bloody future.
He felt a little tired, and his mind was still thinking about everything he had experienced in the previous two school years. He had several doubts that needed answers.
The first one is whether the resurrected "Tom Riddle" is Voldemort? If so, are their two existences in conflict? If not, then who is he?
So after Cyrus escaped from prison, or to be precise, after Cyrus was resurrected, Dumbledore began to consciously spread the news to Albania and to the ears of Voldemort, who was worse than a ghost.
His second doubt was based on the premise that Cyrus and Tom Riddle were not the same person. Dumbledore still needs to figure out whether the other party is harmful. He does not want to see the rise of a third terrifying dark wizard.
The third doubt, or expectation, is more relevant.
He wanted to know if Voldemort would find a way to find the previous Horcrux after he learned that one of his Horcruxes had been "resurrected"? If so, then he is likely to leave a loophole.
"Tom, who claimed to be Cyrus, went to Riddle House and Gaunt House after his resurrection. It was impossible for him to hide his Horcrux in a place where Muggles lived like Riddle House. That would be his shame. It seems that all he took away were the Horcruxes hidden in Gaunt's old house." Dumbledore thought, "But the Ministry of Magic - will he hide the Horcruxes in the Ministry of Magic?"
Dumbledore thought it was unlikely.
Although the Ministry of Magic symbolizes power, which seems to be something Voldemort was born with, in fact Voldemort also despises the Ministry of Magic. He would think that his power is much higher than that of the Ministry of Magic, not to mention that places like the Ministry of Magic where people come and go are not safe.
"Cyrus...who are you?"

"Delis, who in the hell is that goblin waiting for?! It has been ages!"
It was another day, and Tonks was tired of staying at the Hog's Head Inn.
In fact, Cyrus has been living with her for more than half a month now. Even the Aurors and SDementors have relaxed their vigilance a little, and the goblin is happily sitting in the bar every day waiting for someone who may not even come there.
During this period, Tonks changed all the people she had an impression of in her mind so as not to expose her chicken feet. Cyrus, on the other hand, used the phrase "I'm not good at transfiguration" to avoid the boring stalking activities and went around, making Tonks' teeth itch with anger.
"No matter who he is, or whether there is such a person since it is a job, then do it well," Cyrus said and slipped out.
"You have the nerve to say that? Who sneaks away to the Three Broomsticks every day to see Rosmerta? Be careful with your remarks or I'll write to your wife!" Tonks said angrily, resisting the urge to rush up and punch Cyrus.
"I don't go there to see the boss lady, I just don't want to eat among flies. Besides, my wife and I have a very good relationship. I just bought a cat for her a few days ago." Cyrus nodded. He didn't say anything back.
Of course, he didn't buy any cats.
In fact, the animal he sent out was ....Delis himself! At that time, Cyrus turned Delis into a python and Delis slipped away. Later, he spent some time to find Delis back, turned him into a cat and gave it to his wife.
After all, Cyrus became Delis just to find the key to the 12 vaults, not to break up other people's families.
He stretched, and after walking out of the Hog's Head, he did not go to the main road of Hogsmeade, but turned to a more remote place. The Shrieking Shack, a haunted house famous throughout the British wizarding community.
A few months ago, Cyrus fought with Dumbledore here, and the house was destroyed. But now it seems that Dumbledore has restored the house, and even its appearance has not changed.
No, it's not like it hasn't changed at all.
In fact, there are some traces of life in the house. It seems that a certain werewolf has returned here, but this time he did not add new scars to this precarious house.
Somehow, Cyrus wanted to go back to Hogwarts, but he was a little worried about the Marauder's Map. He was not sure if Dumbledore had that map. It's even more uncertain whether Dumbledore would kill him if he met him again.
He doesn't want to die after reaching his thunderbird form. He doesn't even recall the whole incantation after all.
Finally, he turned back.
He walked into the Hog's Head Inn, but surprisingly, there was no trace of Tonks. The goblin who sat in the bar day after day was not there today either. Cyrus immediately realized that the person he was waiting for might have appeared, and Tonks might have followed him on her own initiative.
Aberforth's actions confirmed Cyrus' suspicions.
When he saw Cyrus coming back, he threw over a piece of paper folded several times with a look of displeasure on his face.
"That girl left it for you. I think she is probably in danger."
Cyrus immediately opened the letter:
"Delis, the man the goblin was waiting for has appeared. He is a wizard! I have to follow him. I have left traces for you. See you then."
"When did it happen?" Cyrus put the note away and asked seriously.
"It's been almost five hours since lunch." Aberforth replied casually, "You'd better hurry up, that girl can't be their match."
There was no way Cyrus would get Tonks hurt. He rushed out of the bar, almost knocking the shabby door open.
Cyrus waved his wand in front of him:
"Homenum Revelio!"
A golden mist opened up, and in the shining mist, a row of footprints stretched into the distance.
