Snape took the lead, walking faster and faster, with Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall following closely behind.
When the three arrived at the Slytherin common room, they found the stone door in the stone wall wide open.
"Headmaster Dumbledore, isn't this exercise a bit too much?"
Snape could clearly see that the common room was filled with fallen young Wizards, looking like a slaughterhouse.
He hurried in to check, and thankfully, they were all just unconscious.
"Which idiot did you find—"
"Karl, Karl is playing the attacker."
Snape: (,one)
Dumbledore's casual remark directly stunned Snape.
What else could he do with a young Wizard who could capture Lord Voldemort and was even tormenting his soul?
He had no idea where Professor McGonagall picked up such a freak! What kind of normal young Wizard would be like this?
At twelve or thirteen, he could toy with a weakened Lord Voldemort. In a few more years, would he be punching Dumbledore and kicking Grindelwald?
What could he do about such a guy?
"Then it's fine!"
Snape reluctantly withdrew his anger, "It's just that many people are missing. I don't know where Orolin took them."
"Not far from here, it's the dungeon where the school ghosts often gather."
This time, Dumbledore took the lead, guiding Professor McGonagall and Snape out.
At the same time, he waved his wand, conjuring a large number of sleeping bags again to wrap the unconscious little snakes.
Finally, he lit the fireplace and closed the stone door.
"Severus, didn't you notice any common characteristics among the young Wizards Karl took away?"
Snape's eye twitched involuntarily; how could he not notice?
"They are all young Wizards from pure-blood families, and they are some of the more stubborn ones who advocate pure-blood supremacy."
Dumbledore looked at Snape with profound eyes, his tone exceptionally heavy.
"If these young Wizards continue to be prejudiced, they can easily become extreme pure-blood elitists, and you should be very familiar with such people."
Snape avoided Dumbledore's gaze, remaining silent.
"In fact, Death Eaters have appeared in the families of these young Wizards, becoming followers of Lord Voldemort."
"So I agreed to Karl's plan, because they really need some profound lessons."
After hearing Dumbledore's words, Snape's expression was very complex.
"I don't understand, Lord Voldemort has become your and Orolin's prey, do you still need to worry about those students becoming Death Eaters?"
Dumbledore shook his head solemnly, "I've never worried about them becoming Death Eaters; after all, as you said, Lord Voldemort no longer poses a threat. But while Death Eaters are a thing of the past, pure-blood supremacists still exist."
"What I truly worry about is their future. If one day, those extreme pure-blood elitists anger Karl, believe me, Severus, that will be a terrifying disaster."
Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore with dissatisfaction, "Albus, that's too much. Is Karl really such a terrifying figure in your mind?"
Cat Mom was a little angry. Although her Kitten liked to cause mischief, overall, he was definitely a righteous and kind child.
How did he become a dangerous person like Lord Voldemort in your mouth?
No! I still need to find an opportunity to take Albus to St. Mungos Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries for a check-up!
Dumbledore gave Professor McGonagall an apologetic smile, but his eyes remained serious.
'Minerva, you must know that children are always obedient and harmless in front of their parents, but in reality, Karl's strength and growth have far exceeded your imagination, and even mine."
"I never doubt Karl's character and disposition, but not everyone chooses to deal with foolish and rude offense and provocation with gentle means."
Dumbledore couldn't help but worry when he thought of Karl facing Lucius Malfoy and Cornelius Fudge.
"Minerva, in fact, Nicolas and I have already decided to give you the Philosopher's Stone in the future, because besides you, there is probably no one in this world who can calm Karl down, not even me."
Professor McGonagall couldn't help but frown. Why did he make Karl sound so dangerous? He was clearly just a well-behaved, sensible, and considerate little Kitten!
Snape mused, "Is that why you stopped me from introducing Lucius to Orolin?"
"Exactly. I'm sure you wouldn't want your senior to get into trouble either."
"But Lucius is a smart man; he wouldn't provoke someone who took down Lord Voldemort."
Facing Snape's confusion, Dumbledore smiled and pointed to himself.
"Precisely because Lucius is a smart man, he chose to kneel and call Lord Voldemort 'Master,' but when facing me, he can come to cause trouble with arrogance."
"Can you imagine if Lucius would treat Karl as another me? And with his personality, would he communicate equally with a third-year young Wizard from a Muggle background?"
"So let's wait a bit. Wait until you can make Lucius recognize reality, and wait until I show Karl another way to solve problems. Perhaps it will be useful. If not, then we can only wish him good luck, after all, we've done our best."
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he ignored Professor McGonagall and Snape, who were still deep in thought.
He looked at the dungeon door in front of him and stepped inside with great anticipation.
The effect of this exercise was very good, especially the outstanding performance of the Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Gryffindor graduates, which will continue to influence the better growth of other young Wizards.
Now we need to see... how do you say it? Correcting the bad habits of prejudice, discrimination, and arrogant rudeness among some pure-blood young Wizards!
Yes! That's right! That's it!
Hope this goal also succeeds!
When Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Snape entered the dungeon, they all couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Not because of the eerie scene in the room, but because Karl's current appearance was indeed a bit outrageous.
Even Dumbledore, who had seen it before, still found it a bit hard to accept.
While Snape was shocked, he also noticed the lantern in Karl's hand. The miserable wails constantly emanating from it sounded somewhat familiar.
Oh! It turned out to be Lord Voldemort! No wonder he felt inexplicably comfortable!
As for Cat Mom—she was a bit disoriented now.
Professor McGonagall: (A)
Who is this evil and terrifying skull? Where is my cute and handsome Kitten?
Turning into a Merperson and a little Dragon was acceptable, but what kind of monster is this?
A speechless Professor McGonagall raised her hand to cover her face, unable to look even a little.
Son! You're ugly to your mom!
Karl, greeting enthusiastically: (_)
What's going on? Why are your gazes at me a little strange?
Cat Mom, look at me quickly! Don't I look mighty and domineering like this?
Dumbledore looked at Professor McGonagall and Karl, trying to suppress the wildly rising corners of his mouth.
"Cough!"
He coughed, reminding Karl: "Hurry up, don't you have something else to do?"
Karl nodded to Dumbledore, raised his hand and snapped his fingers to summon Gubraithian Fire, turning the entire dungeon into a sea of fire.
The scorching heat woke Malfoy and the others from their unconsciousness, and then they heard the terrifying monster roaring.
Terrified and unsettled, they quickly looked in the direction of the sound, finding Headmaster Dumbledore, Dean Snape, and Professor McGonagall confronting the monster.
"Ah! Dumbledore! As expected of the greatest Wizard in the world! Ah! Professor McGonagall! As expected of a Transfiguration Master! Oh, and there's Snape, you're not bad either."
Snape: (_)
Aren't you being a bit too discriminatory?
Then why did you even mention me? Couldn't you have just pretended not to see me? There's no need to be so reluctant and perfunctory!
"This time, you win! But! I will definitely be back!"
After making his declaration, Karl immediately disappeared into the sea of fire.
This act was over; he had to hurry to the Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor's office on the third floor.
Lockhart! Here I come!
