Capítulo 452: Chapter 451 "Dumbledore's Vow"
The light gradually dissipated, and an old man appeared in midair.
"Professor Dumbledore?" Sean recognized the figure.
It's just that the way Dumbledore appeared in the white light was something he had never seen before. Moreover, Dumbledore seemed to be a little off. In Sean's impression, Professor Dumbledore often maintains a wise characteristic. Even though he has seen his tired appearance many times, it looks different.
Dumbledore's sudden appearance today made Sean feel a little bit weird. His face was full of anger, but his left eye was firmly closed, and his right eye was as usual. Moreover, Dumbledore's chest was heaving violently, as if he had experienced something before coming here.
Dumbledore was floating in midair, his robes swaying slightly in the wind. He turned his back to Sean and faced Thomas, which allowed Sean to see his hands behind his waist.
His right hand was tightly grasping the wrist of his left hand, and that left hand showed a look of dryness and edema; one of the fingers was as dry as dry wood, and the other was swollen.
Thomas and the others saw the appearance of the person coming, and they widened their eyes in unison.
"Professor Dumbledore!" Thomas' voice was filled with shock and panic.
"I'm sorry." Dumbledore said, but instead of talking to Thomas, he turned his head and smiled at Sean, "Sean, this is something I didn't expect. I thought the Portkey could guarantee your safety when you go out, but I didn't think about this possibility."
"Professor, do you know what is happening?" Sean did not remove his flame.
Dumbledore frowned.
"I have some guesses, but I didn't expect this to be the case..." He said.
Hearing this, Sean also frowned. Dumbledore knew little about the relationship between The Returners and Durmstrang.
The Lloyds' strange behavior has already reminded him of one of the seven deadly sins, but this is just a guess. Sean wanted to bring them back to Hogwarts, but he was known. It is almost certain that this is the Sin power.
But this is not what shocked Sean. After all, he had already guessed that one of the Sins was helping the Returners. What really shocked him was Thomas's strength.
Although Sean can't control the Sin in his body, he has some understanding of the power. When Sean woke up at the Père Lachaise Cemetery, the Pride briefly awakened and completely occupied Sean's body.
What Sean felt the most from this was the irresistible and terrifying power.
Although Sean has only felt part of the power, he knows that each Sins' power is different, but they should have one thing in common: Their power rejects external magic power.
When the Obscurus infiltrated Sean, part of it was absorbed, but that was a trap set for Sean, and it was the Pride who took the initiative to absorb the Obscurus.
It refuses to be fused and dispelled by other forms of magic, which means that various spells have no effect on it. Its power is beyond the world's imagination, and even Sean can't estimate it. This is one of the reasons why it can potentially destroy the world and also the reason why Sean has not been able to control it so far.
In other words, it is impossible for other wizards to use the Sins except for those who were born with them, who have a slight possibility of borrowing the power.
However, the power was used by the three of them.
Sean was 100 percent sure that none of them was real. The Sins are gradually awakened, allowing the host to control part of the power. The more it is used, the more the host should control it, or the host will become completely uncontrollable.
When Sean couldn't control it, all he had done was to keep it from being awakened and to use various ways to find ways to weaken it. As for Stephanie, she has shown more and more obvious power of the Sin. But, as the leader of the Sins, other Sins would definitely blend it with his power, just like what happened with them before.
The three have already been able to use such power, but Sean has no sense of their power, and they do not want to integrate with Sean.
Just when Sean frowned and thought, a voice sounded, "Professor Dumbledore? You shouldn't be here."
Seeing that Dumbledore ignored him completely, Thomas yelled loudly, with dissatisfaction in his voice. Dumbledore just looked at Thomas and frowned even tighter.
"Who are you?" He asked slowly.
Thomas moved, but his voice became lower, "It doesn't seem that I need to explain this to you, Professor Dumbledore."
Sean yelled from behind, "His name is Dipper Thomas. He is the admissions officer from Durmstrang. I met him at a new student's home before. He was planning to sneak through the officers from other schools and use Intimidation to attract new students."
Dumbledore nodded and looked at Thomas with a gloomy face, "Mr. Thomas, the enrollment range was planned by the principals. C can ask, who gave you the permission to do that?"
Thomas glanced at Sean and snorted coldly at Dumbledor, "Professor, you are really good at diverting topics. I don't understand; why is Wallup so important to you?"
"Every child is very important to me," Dumbledore said without changing his expression.
Thomas sneered, "Professor Dumbledore, does it have something to do with the admissions now? Don't think I'll let Wallup leave safely later."
Dumbledore didn't speak, and Sean narrowed his eyes.
Thomas smiled, "You want to know what exactly happened? I suggest you ask him. After all, this is not something I can say. However, things have come to this point, and I shouldn't hide it from you anymore. But I have to take Wallup away."
As he spoke, he ignored Dumbledore in front of him and walked straight towards Sean.
"Sean Wallup, I didn't expect such a coincidence to happen. I blame you for meddling in my own business."
Thomas passed Dumbledore, glanced at him, and said mockingly, "It's also your fault, Principal. You have reached a cooperation with us, and you tried to use a special portkey to protect your student. Professor Dumbledore, you're a little too naïve sometimes."
Sean squinted his eyes and glanced at Dumbledore, who was motionless from time to time.
He has always known that Dumbledore cooperates with The Returners, but in Sean's guess, Dumbledore and them have only reached a part of the cooperation. Dumbledore wants to use this to achieve one of his goals.
However, judging from what Thomas said, the cooperation between Dumbledore and the Returners has reached such a deep level that they are one step away from reaching a certain truth. If Dumbledore had let Thomas take him away today, then things would have been really bad.
Thomas turned his attention to Sean, "Do you feel desperate now? Do you think that your Principal is your savior? What a pity."
The three raised their wands, and the magic power originating from the Sin rose again.
"Obviously, you have a gift and don't know how to use it. Give up your struggle, come 'become' one of us."
The magic power at the tip of the wand surged violently and shot straight toward the flame in front of Sean. Sean didn't move, just clenched the wand in his hand.
An ear-piercing buzz resounded through the cemetery, and a shield appeared in front of Sean's flame, blocking Thomas's spells.
"Professor Dumbledore?"
Thomas' face instantly became gloomy, "I understand you coming here. After all, this is your student; you feel that he is in danger, which makes me admire him from the bottom of my heart. But when you saw me, when I shouted your name, you still want to stop me?"
Dumbledore turned his head slowly. Just like Dawson back then, a strange magic power appeared on Dumbledore's wrist, and that magic power was trying to go toward Dumbledore's heart.
It was the unbreakable vow. Dumbledore signed an unbreakable vow with the Returners.
Thomas saw the vow activated, showed a proud expression, and said loudly, "Professor, it seems that the judgment has taken effect-. Will you do something to me? Will you go against the wishes of the Returners?"
A long sigh sounded out. Dumbledore seemed to have not seen the strange power and slowly opened his closed left eye.
"Too reckless..."
Thomas frowned, noticing something was wrong.
"Professor, you know better than me what this means. Everything happened in front of Wallup's eyes. He has seen your secret and knows that you are cooperating with us. What's the point of you desperately trying to save him?"
Dumbledore ignored him and looked at Sean, "Sean, I have to say, I was too reckless. I thought such a long life span could gain more wisdom. But unfortunately, I was a little naïve at the beginning."
"Professor?"
Dumbledore smiled at Sean and looked at Thomas again, "The vow was signed, and there are many things to say, but..."
Dumbledore's "but" made Thomas panic, and said loudly, "Dumbledore! Don't forget, there is still room for you to do other things. If you kill me, you will be pierced by the vow, and you will definitely die!"
Dumbledore nodded, "You are right. The wizard who invented this vow is powerful. If I kill you, I will definitely die. But the vow is not as binding on me as you think. You must have never asked your elders who demolished the temple."
"The Temple?" Thomas was taken aback for a moment, and his eyes widened, "You!"
"Besides," Dumbledore smiled, "why should I kill you?"
