A few days later, at an airport in London, a young man and woman looked up at a plane gradually disappearing into the horizon at sunset.
“It’s finally over!”
Albert breathed a sigh of relief. After several days of hard work, he finally managed to get Hermione's family on a plane to Sydney.
Of course, this was not free help, as Albert also received a generous reward for completing the triggered panel task.
All I can say is that Voldemort is truly a treasure boy who always brings him unexpected surprises.
Although he encountered some troubles during the period, facing Voldemort was nothing to Albert. He was not afraid of Voldemort, but he also knew that he was not someone who could be taken lightly.
"They're gone!" Hermione's eyes were filled with tears, and she gently leaned her head on Albert's shoulder. "I'm sorry, I really can't help it."
"Don't worry, you'll be able to see them again soon. In fact, you can assume that they are going on a trip abroad," Albert comforted him softly, "My family is the same, and we still contact each other by phone occasionally."
“Can we really win?”
Hermione raised her head and looked at Albert with expectant eyes. She had no confidence at all that Harry could defeat the You-Know-Who. As his good friend, Hermione naturally knew more about Harry's situation than most people. Sometimes Hermione would wonder where Albert and Dumbledore got the confidence from to think that Harry could defeat the You-Know-Who.
Especially after experiencing this accident, she finally could no longer suppress her inner fear and worry about the future.
If Albert had not been decisive and cautious enough, her family might have been innocently affected and killed by those evil dark wizards.
Hermione also knew that Albert could not be blamed for this. As Harry's good friends, they would definitely be targeted by the Death Eaters.
From the very beginning, she had no way out, just like Ron. Everyone knew that they were Harry's best friends. How could the mysterious man let them go so easily
"Of course we will win. You should have confidence in Harry." Albert took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Hermione. "Well, don't let them wait too long. It's not safe to stay outside. Let's return to Hogwarts as soon as possible."
"I really don't know where you get your confidence from." Hermione trembled her lips slightly, and finally showed a helpless smile. "In fact, I feel that your chances of defeating You-Know-Who are much greater than Harry's. I have been with Harry for so long, and I know his actual level very well."
"Honestly, I really don't see much hope. I think the people in the Order of the Phoenix should also be aware of this. Even though Dumbledore believes that Harry will defeat the You-Know-Who, sometimes reality is cruel. The gap between Harry and the You-Know-Who is so big that it makes people despair."
"No, Harry is actually very suitable. He has his own advantages." Albert said softly.
"What's the advantage?"
Hermione actually wanted to know why Albert and Dumbledore were optimistic about Harry. Was it because Harry had fought Voldemort many times and survived
"Harry has the courage and reason to do that, and he is not strong enough to attract the attention of the You-Know-Who. That means contempt and laxity, which means a flaw." Albert took Hermione away from the airport. They needed to meet Kingsley, and Hermione also needed to personally thank Kingsley and other members of the Order of the Phoenix for their help in recent days.
"If even you have no hope in Harry, then the mysterious man will be even less likely to value Harry. So there are some things that Harry is more suitable to do than us, and it is less likely to arouse the mysterious man's vigilance. This is very important, very important." Albert repeated it twice.
"this… "
Hermione was a little confused and couldn't understand why this could be an advantage for Harry.
"You'll know later." Albert said mysteriously.
"Can't you just say it directly?" Hermione was a little conflicted. Her original reluctance to part with her family faded a lot. She frowned slightly and thought about Albert's words, and soon understood the meaning of his words.
When it comes to finding Horcruxes, Harry, who is not the focus of attention, actually has an advantage.
"It's just what you thought. Remember not to tell anyone about it." Albert reminded.
Hermione's eyes widened, "You do know."
"Of course I know." Albert said as a matter of course, "It's not easy to eliminate the You-Know-Who by force alone. That guy is very dangerous and more powerful than most wizards. Perhaps only someone as experienced and fearless as Dumbledore can defeat him. Even if he can do it, it's not the result we want."
"Even you can't do anything?" Hermione was a little surprised. In her opinion, Albert was definitely at the same level as Dumbledore. With the two of them working together, and Albert being a master of prophecy, it should not be difficult to completely destroy Voldemort's Horcruxes. However, they both gave the task of destroying the Horcruxes to Harry.
This was indeed unusual, even if he was afraid that You-Know-Who would find out that someone was destroying his Horcruxes.
"It's difficult, and we can't take risks, so we can only use alternative methods to defeat him. Fighting is never just a contest of strength, but also a contest of wisdom, and the mysterious man happens to lack wisdom in some things." Albert tapped his head with his fingers and said with a smile, "This is also the sequelae left by the frequent intermarriage of pure-bloods. They are more violent and tend to use simple methods to solve problems because that is simpler, more convenient and more effective."
"Thank you, you are always so considerate." Hermione finally got rid of the negative emotions of leaving her family and began to think about what Albert said.
"Dumbledore is undoubtedly a wise old man. He has studied You-Know-Who for many years. I believe he must have a better way to deal with You-Know-Who." Albert looked at the people not far away and reminded them, "They are coming."
Kingsley, Sirius and Lupin were walking towards this side.
"Thanks to everyone's help these days."
Hermione expressed her gratitude to the three people. They had been helping Hermione to move her family in recent days. If it weren't for the help of the Order of the Phoenix, Hermione wouldn't know what to do now.
"Don't say that, Hermione." Kings came to signal Hermione not to worry about it. He turned his gaze to Albert beside him again: "There is bad news. Someone set fire to your original home. I think it was to vent their anger."
"Who did it?" Albert asked, his casual tone seemed like he didn't care about the matter at all.
"It is still unclear who set the fire." Kingsley shook his head, "but it must be a Death Eater."
"It seems that he is really angry. He even does such a thing?" Albert said self-deprecatingly.
"I think the probability of this happening is not high. The most likely scenario is that a Death Eater did this to please him." Kingsley didn't think Voldemort would do such a thing.
Of course, this big pot must be put on Voldemort's head.
"I expected this day to come." Albert was not surprised by this. Instead, he was indifferent to what Kings had mentioned. He turned to Hermione and said, "I'll take you back to school!"
"Do you know something?"
After Albert sent Hermione back to Hogwarts, Sirius turned his head to look at Kingsley because he saw that Kingsley seemed relieved.
"I'm not too sure, it may be related to the prophecy." Kings came to signal them not to talk about these things here.
"Prophecy?" Sirius muttered.
"I don't know the details, but when we found Cassandra's body, Dumbledore found a few strands of hair on her hand and said they were her last words, which translated to three times." After returning to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, Kings came to tell the two about what happened a while ago. "I suspect it's related to this incident. After all, Albert knows more about prophecies than anyone else."
"I really don't understand those fortune tellers." Sirius ran his hand through his hair and stopped thinking about it. It would be difficult for him to figure it out with his brain alone.
