Hogwarts: The Founder Reborn

Chapter 334 Godric's Choice



After Dumbledore let Harry go, Godric was left behind.

"I'm worried about you, kid."

Dumbledore stared at Godric, and there was deep darkness in Walan's eyes.

Godric just stood there without saying a word.

Old Phineas appeared in his frame, and he snorted coldly.

"Albus, what are you going to say? What do you think you can say? You don't really need to care about my children. The one you care about, idiot, was captured by the enemy, and now he is dead or alive. Is the little one in the family also lost in the care of someone?"

Phineas, the old man, blamed Dumbledore for Sirius' arrest.

He made no secret of his resentment towards Dumbledore.

"Sirius told me that you want to take the exam this year and join the Order of the Phoenix after graduation, right?"

Dumbledore didn't pay attention to what old Phineas said, but observed Godric.

"I didn't promise Sirius, I was hesitating, you are still young, child, you are so young, so I don't want to promise you to join the Order of the Phoenix."

Mr. Phineas started to go crazy in the portrait. He squeezed into the portrait next to Godric, squeezing the people in the original portrait out of the frame.

"What did he say? You're joining the Order of the Phoenix? He's lying, isn't he? Why are you joining the Order of the Phoenix? Son, don't follow your stupid father, he's not a good example! You shouldn't be joining the Phoenix Society."

Godric had kept his head down, but when he heard old Phineas talking about Sirius, he frowned and looked up at the people jumping up and down in the portrait beside him.

"Sirius is not some stupid father!"

Seeing the dissatisfaction in Godric's eyes, old Phineas shouted disdainfully: "How is he not stupid? Back then, his father used the method of driving him out of the family and sacrificing Regulus. Black tore it apart, let Alphard secretly fund that idiot Sirius, and the result?"

Old Mr. Phineas couldn't help but began to complain about Sirius.

"He actually joined the Order of the Phoenix! Did he know that when the news came, the Black family was forced to sacrifice. Although I don't know the specifics, the Black family had to agree that the Dark Lord was involved in a very secret matter. Hurry up, Regulus will be gone!"

"I know!" Godric showed an impatient expression. "Do you want to know what choice Regulus made?"

He gave old Phineas a disdainful smile.

"If you say it was stupid for Sirius to join the Order of the Phoenix against Voldemort, then what is Regulus who also opposed Voldemort? Is also stupid?"

Godric revealed without any concealment the choice Regulus made before his death.

Dumbledore knew about Regulus' sacrifice, and he also helped Sirius, helping him find a solution to Regulus' infernal toxicity, so that Sirius could bury his younger brother.

He said with a little regret: "Regulus is a brave man. Although he is very young, he is much more rational and sober than his peers. Not anyone, at his age, can have the courage to resist Voldemort." of."

Old Mr. Phineas, as if someone had fixed his body, remained motionless in the portrait.

"I know what you mean, Phineas," Godric whispered. "Joining the Order of the Phoenix is ​​also a decision I made after careful consideration. I want to do this, and it has nothing to do with Sirius."

He looked firm and calm.

"I have my own eyes. I can see the evil deeds Voldemort did. I don't like it. I don't want to see any life lost because of a different idea from a dark wizard, so I will suffer misfortune."

Godric looked at Dumbledore, he was speaking to Dumbledore.

"What I want is the peaceful life I had before the Dark Lord was resurrected. At that time, my friends don't have to worry about whether the amulets I bought in Diagon Alley are useful. They are all fake. Yes, but they would rather be cheated than give the amulet to the one they love, as long as it is of some use."

"I don't need to see those young children crying and wanting to go home, just because they have nightmares at night, dreaming that their home was burned down by a group of uninvited villains!"

"Those students around me, they should have discussed how to prepare for their exams every day, even if they were crying because they felt that they could not do well in the exam because of the huge pressure, they didn't stare at Harry every day, chase Harry, just Just ask Harry, he's sure to beat Voldemort!"

"Professor Dumbledore, do you know how much pressure Harry is under?"

How could Dumbledore not know?

He avoided Godric's eyes and looked at his hands, old hands covered with age spots.

Godric asked in a calm tone: "I want to join the Order of the Phoenix, I don't have any other purpose, I just want my life, the lives of people around me, my friends, my relatives, my lover, they can return Go back to the easy and happy life that used to be."

"It's as simple as that, Professor."

Dumbledore didn't even have to look back to feel the heat in Godric's eyes, he was sincere, that's what he thought.

"But I don't want to promise you, son," said Dumbledore. "Sirius has been arrested. I can no longer let you join the Order of the Phoenix. If there is any accident, how can I face Sirius? Although Sirius said that he agreed with you to join the Order of the Phoenix, he really didn't want you to join the Order of the Phoenix. You joined the Order of the Phoenix."

"My child, the Order of the Phoenix is ​​not as beautiful as you think. It represents danger and sadness."

Dumbledore was lost in memory.

"Have you seen that photo? When the Order of the Phoenix was established, we took a photo together. Later... I kept mine as a treasure and never dared to take it out."

He turned his head and looked at Godric, using his best will to maintain a calm expression on his face.

"In that photo, not many people are still with us."

"War is not as easy as you think. It kills people."

Dumbledore just looked at Godric so calmly, and he asked, "Even so, do you want to join the Order of the Phoenix?"

Without flinching, Godric replied decisively, "I want to join!"
