After destroying the Ravenclaw diadem, Lockhart looked at the dim golden crown with a gloomy expression. He felt very complicated in his heart, feeling both the pride of interrupting Voldemort's plan and the fear of becoming Voldemort's enemy.

But after thinking about Dumbledore saying that Voldemort was still alive, the pride in his heart was quickly replaced by panic.

Unlike Lockhart, whose heart was eaten away by fear, Quirrell's smile never broke when he looked at the destroyed Horcruxes. After all, his experiences in the past few years had made him hate Voldemort deeply.The powerlessness and pain he experienced while being parasitized by Voldemort was an experience that other wizards could never imagine, especially since Voldemort also used dark magic to reshape a personality in his body.

Not many wizards knew about Quirrell's experience, so Lockhart looked at Quirrell's expression and really didn't understand why he didn't feel any fear of the mysterious man.

Quirrell noticed Lockhart's gaze, turned around and saw his somewhat stiff expression, and could easily guess his mood at the moment.

Lockhart quickly restrained his expression. He did not want to express his cowardly side, especially since he was also one of the wizards who destroyed Voldemort's Horcrux just now.

"If possible, I really want to record this great moment in my new novel." He said with a smile, looking at Dumbledore and Quirrell.

"This is not possible." Dumbledore said in a brisk tone. After destroying Voldemort's Horcrux, he was in a much better mood than before.

"The Ministry of Magic has been denying the news that Voldemort is still alive. They will not let you publicize this matter. Moreover, the existence of Horcruxes is not trivial. If everyone knows about this dark magic, I think there will not only be wizards who are willing to take risks. Voldemort alone."

Lockhart smiled. He was just talking. Even if he was asked to write it down, he would not dare to do it. If the resurrected Voldemort knew that he had participated in destroying one of his Horcruxes, any fool would know what would happen. .

Quirrell and Lockhart had been working together for a while, and Magos had told him some past events about each other. He doubted whether he could keep this secret.

"I suggest that we forget this memory." Quirrell said.

"Whether it's Horcruxes or news about Voldemort, we must remain extremely vigilant."

Lockhart pretended to think about it for a while and agreed with Quirrell's suggestion.

"But we can leave a copy of this memory. If Voldemort really appears again, we can get this memory back and fight against him again." With a righteous expression and a fearless tone, people who don't know may think that he is He was truly a wizard who dared to resist Voldemort.

He hopes to keep this memory is actually very simple. If Voldemort does not appear again or is defeated again, he will make this memory public at that time, so that the magic world will know how powerful a wizard he is. .On the other hand, if Voldemort wins in the end, he will completely destroy this memory.

"God, will Voldemort know who destroyed his Horcrux?" After finishing speaking, Lockhart, who still felt a little unsafe, asked cautiously.

Dumbledore shook his head, "Even if his power returns to its peak, he can only know that the Horcrux was destroyed and its specific location, but if the wizard who destroyed him doesn't tell him, he won't know."

so far so good.Lockhart was relieved, fearing that Dumbledore would say the word "know".

"Let's get started." He said, waving the wand gently at his temple and using Legilimency.

A white smoke was slowly drawn out by the wand, and then placed into a crystal bottle specially used to store memories.

After shaking his dizzy brain, Lockhart looked at the smoke swirling in the crystal bottle with a satisfied smile on his face.

Quirrell actually had no intention of clearing his memory. The suggestion was just to give Lockhart a step down, so facing Lockhart's questioning gaze, he told him that he was not very proficient in Legilimency and the Oblivion Spell. Will run to Dumbledore for help.

Although I really want to say that my level is actually higher than Dumbledore, it is better not to publicize this kind of thing, otherwise it will be difficult for a novelist who is famous for adventure and life to explain why he is good at this kind of magic.

When the dizziness subsided, Lockhart pointed his wand at himself again, this time on his forehead, closed his eyes and cast the spell.

"Forget it all"

The tip of the wand emitted a flash of white light, and then Lockhart trembled suddenly. When he opened his eyes, he looked at Dumbledore and Quirrell strangely.

"When does it begin"

Dumbledore smiled and picked up the golden crown.

"Haven't you already eliminated the parasitic soul?"

"Really?" Lockhart was a little surprised, and then quickly responded.

"I'm under the oblivion curse"

"It is our own choice to forget." Quirrell replied.

"Professor Dumbledore told me that the wizard parasitic in the Golden Crown is no ordinary wizard. Our memory has been locked. If we don't forget it, we may be attacked by that wizard."

Lockhart also had no doubts about him. He was very confident that if he wanted to remember a certain memory fragment, not even Dumbledore could completely stop him. Now that there was no memory left, it meant that he was willing.

Dumbledore saw that Lockhart had been deceived, and then used a spell to wake up the sleeping Luna.

Luna slowly opened her eyes and felt exhausted, not physically, but mentally exhausted, as if she had been arguing with others for three days and three nights in order to prove that her father was right.

"The soul parasitic in your spirit has been eliminated. It is normal for you to feel mentally exhausted."

Dumbledore's words reassured Luna.

"The golden crown?" she asked weakly.

"The golden crown is intact." Quirrell put the golden crown in Luna's hand with a smile.

"But it no longer has magic." Lockhart began to introduce to her the golden crown after the destroyed Horcrux.

"It no longer has Rowena Ravenclaw's mark. Although it is still a magic item, if you want it to have magic again, it's up to you."

"I" Luna asked softly, stroking the golden crown.

"Yes, any behavior related to wisdom may reactivate it. If you do it, it will no longer be Ravenclaw's diadem, but Lovegood's diadem."

Luna was startled by Lockhart's words;

"my crown"

"Then let's see if you can wake him up." Dumbledore looked at the golden crown in Luna's hand, feeling a little sad.

"From now on, the relics of Hogwarts Ravenclaw House truly cease to exist."

Luna didn't quite understand what Dumbledore said. She still had the golden crown in her hand, so why did she say that Ravenclaw's diadem no longer existed?

"You promise me that you will declare this to be the true crown of Ravenclaw." Luna reminded unwillingly, feeling that she had been deceived.

Dumbledore was amused by Luna's words.

"Don't worry, I will prove it for you. Ms. Lovegood."
