Chapter 301 See you at the end

Dumbledore looked at the black crystal, frowned suddenly, looked at Luke, and also looked at old Rose in front of him.Obviously a little dissatisfied with his behavior, but also a little puzzled.

"why?"

Dumbledore couldn't help but ask.

"This kind of thing..."

"It's useful, isn't it?"

Old Rose looked at Dumbledore with a faint smile on his face.

"Although there are many ways to ensure a person's loyalty. Whether it is cultivation from childhood, or various other methods. There is always a way."

"However, the people cultivated by the Ross family will only be loyal to the Ross family. The people I cultivate will only be loyal to me. Principal Albus, you have to understand. The relationship between us and our subordinates is destined to be impossible to fight with you and those who like my friends."

"Luke needs a friend who can fight with him. He also needs a fighting force who is completely loyal to him."

"He doesn't have time to train such a person. And I can't prepare in advance. Then cutting the soul as a constraint is undoubtedly the easiest way."

"Although it is a trick, it is very useful."

Dumbledore fell silent.He hated this inhumane practice.But he is not a saint, he is very clear that such things were not rare in those days.

But, because the world is different now.So such things will gradually be rejected by the mainstream of society.

But in just a few decades, this method has not been lost.

Moreover, when he looked at Old Rose's expression, he also saw that something was wrong with him.

Think about it and he will understand.After all, there is a blood relationship between Luke and old Ross.The correspondence between them all the time has also kept them from being alienated.However, this does not mean that Luke has complete trust in the old man in front of him.

Luke didn't even fully trust Dumbledore, let alone old Rose?

Luke's aristocratic status destined him to attach great importance to blood.But in the same way, disregard for blood relationship is also a characteristic of nobles.

When the nobles were fighting each other, they didn't care whether the other party was their relative.

Brother-in-law beats brother-in-law, father-in-law beats son-in-law.It is a normal situation in the aristocratic circle.It is rare to fight each other, but when fighting with families as a unit, such blood ties are often ignored.

When the interests of the Gaunt family and the Ross family conflict, Luke will never act lightly.

Even if there is only Luke in the Gaunt family, there are still many subordinates and retainers in the family to take care of.

Since it is a family.Then it is impossible to have a situation where one person is full and the whole family is not hungry.

So...Old Rose knew in his heart that his grandson could not trust him completely.So he didn't arrange his own people to be by Luke's side.He has made his attitude known from the very beginning.

After this time, if nothing else, Luke's trust in him must have been greatly improved.

As for whether Luke has anyone who fully trusts?

some.

The girl with long golden hair tied back, thick bangs scattered on her forehead, and eyes as blue as the sea is the person Luke trusts the most.

Dumbledore didn't know how the little girl did it.

This made him feel a little bit emotional.

Luke and Grindelwald are not quite the same.

Grindelwald is someone who uses his personal charisma to unite his men.They all fought around Grindelwald.After Grindelwald was arrested, all the saints were thinking about how to save Grindelwald, not how to inherit Grindelwald's career.

Luke used interests.

There is also some sincerity that can be given.

Let all collaborators see the benefits they can get.Let them understand that even without Luke, they can get some benefits.Although not all of the huge amount, it is enough for them to compete.

In this way, even if there are some accidents in Luke, others will inherit his will and become the new leader.

Luke took the black crystal.

The gray-black skull smoke is flowing out of the inner wall of the crystal.And in those gaps, a youth-like figure could be seen.

Small, suspended in the crystal, spread out on the limbs, and fell asleep deeply.

Seal part of a person's soul into a black magic crystal.Make sure that once this part of the soul is lost, it can completely incapacitate this person to fight.

Become the fish under the knife.

This kind of black magic falls into the realm of curses.And splitting the soul is a sufficiently dangerous and delicate thing to do.If there are fewer cuts, the deterrent effect is not enough, and it will also arouse ferocity.If you cut too much, you will become a useless person, an idiot, and a lunatic on the spot.

This degree is difficult to master, and it is difficult to connect.Behind a mature dark seal often represents tens of hundreds of dead lives.

Luke glanced down at Gary.He is very clear that the person in front of him is really trustworthy for him.Dark Seal is a full-blown black magic.If there were bad reviews, it wouldn't have had so many fans back then.

This magic cannot be said to be prohibited by law, but rejected by the mainstream.

But in the dark, it can still be said to be prevalent.

Dumbledore obviously didn't like this thing in front of him very much.But he also knew the function of this thing, so he didn't say much.Then it shows that in the case of completing Luke's goal, this thing is trustworthy enough.

Luke looked at Gary in front of him, took a deep breath and said, "I don't know if you expected such a picture."

"When I was in that seal, I destroyed it as soon as possible, released your soul, and launched a speech to you, expressing my ambition and expressing your importance to me. Afterwards, you Freedom, and my ideals are all outward, and then I volunteer to fight for my pawn."

Gary's head drooped even lower.

Luke shook his head: "It's a pity. This time, the people I need you to protect are very important to me. So I won't take their lives as a bet to test your loyalty."

"But, like Grandpa said. I do need you."

"At least in the current situation, I need your help very much."

With that said, Luke put the seal on the table and said, "I also don't like employees who lose their enthusiasm for work because of forced work."

"So, work for me, not slavery for me. Five years, five years from now, and you'll be free."

"As for the authenticity of this promise. We can ask Professor Dumbledore to be the witness of the contract. In this way, the binding force is guaranteed for you and me."

"As for this dark seal. It's in the hands of Professor Dumbledore. You don't need to pass by me when the time comes, you can go there and get it directly."

With that said, Luke pushed the seal in front of Dumbledore.

This action surprised everyone.

They thought about many pictures, such as what Luke said just now.There was also Luke who silently put away the seal and accepted Gary as a servant.

The former will surprise them.The latter will make them feel a little bit disappointed.But it's not unexpected.This time, Luke really couldn't gamble at will.

But the current situation really surprised them.

Feeling the unexpected expressions of everyone, Luke said with a smile on his face: "Why, do you feel incredible? You know, there is no elf serving me until now."

As a common servant in the wizarding world, elves are not around Luke so far.You know, even in Hogwarts, there are a lot of elves.

So, when Luke says he doesn't like slaves, he really doesn't like slaves.Even if it was just talking, he did what he said.

If you pretend to be a saint all your life, then you are a real saint.

Gary looked at the boy in front of him, his face still expressionless.

"If it is your will."

Apparently, he wasn't thrilled by Luke's generosity, nor was he saddened by Luke's stinginess.He seems to have surrendered to his fate.

There is no shame in admitting defeat in the face of fate.

"If you want to understand it that way."

The smile on Luke's face didn't change.If it's just such a person, it's really not worth him to change.

So under the witness of Dumbledore, the contract was signed.

For Gary, picking up a freelance status for nothing is simply a big deal.For Luke, he just did what he wanted to do.

Five years later, his own strength is enough, and he still has enough time and energy.

This time, he certainly wouldn't let Dumbledore die easily.Now that the old guy has become his own, he must be prepared to be squeezed to the limit by Luke.

What's more...whether the world will really be peaceful five years from now is still debatable.

After all, with the gunpowder cap over there, Luke felt like he might not be able to cover it for too long.

After the contract was reached, it was another meal.

Hermione and Taylor, who had just emptied their stomachs on the edge of the cliff, looked at the delicious French meals with greedy expressions.

Old Rose didn't put up any more dragon formations, but simply had a sumptuous dinner with Luke and the others.

"I don't know what you want to do in the United States, Luke." Old Ross said with a smile at the dinner table, "You have to remember one sentence, the purpose is often fixed, but the means will have many choices."

Luke raised the fruit wine in his hand and said, "Don't worry. I understand naturally."

........................

In the early morning, half of the sun's face was exposed, and a cloud covered the face of the sun like a hand. It looked like the early rising sun yawned a lot.

And at the gate of a manor with simple decoration.Alice, in a homely red dress, was standing with Arthur, with similar tension on her face.

They suddenly received a reply from Luke last night, saying that he would come to them early tomorrow morning.

Facing such a sudden attack, they also felt a little nervous.

After all, what happened this time was a bit absurd.

But the two of them didn't say anything after all. After choosing to stand by Luke's side, they also had to accept Luke's test of them.Judging from the previous situation, the projects Luke arranged for them were messed up by them to some extent.

And it still caused bigger things, and Luke had to go across the ocean to deal with it.To some extent, this can indeed be regarded as dereliction of duty.

But after taking a deep breath, Alice still couldn't resist the curiosity in her heart.

She wanted to know if the man who called himself Salazar was real or not.

And Luke's judgment this time is really hard to judge.

But it seems that he also has some doubts.Only then will they rush over without stopping.Instead of berating them for being bored and then waiting until they have more questions or have identified the other person as a liar.

This also means that Luke thinks this matter may be true?

Based on Alice's understanding of Luke's character, if this matter is nonsense, he will not handle it by himself.

The two didn't wait too long, and before the agreed time, the sound of the carriage came from a distance.

In the distance, an elegant Thestral carriage appeared in front of their eyes.

The driver was a muscular, fierce-looking brawny man.

They have never seen this man.

Alice and Arthur exchanged glances, confirming that the other party's strength is not weak.

Alice frowned.She could see that their behavior this time made Luke suspicious of them after all.

The history of this person...

After a while, the carriage stopped, and the strong man who was driving jumped out of the carriage, took out the small ladder, and set it up underneath.

Luke quickly got out of the car.Before Alice and Arthur came forward, he brought out the other two girls from the carriage.

】

Alice looked at the two girls immediately.

A girl with blond hair, extremely beautiful, and especially charming eyes.

The other girl has long brown hair and looks a little messy. She looks good, but there is still a gap compared to the previous girl.

But the temperament is very prominent, and the arrogance brought by bookishness and knowledge is also obvious.

These are two beautiful girls with their own strengths.

The most rare thing is that the faces of these two girls have a maturity that does not match their age.

Probably because of Luke's influence.It could also be because of past experiences.

Alice thinks the former is more likely.

After all, judging from their relationship with Luke, they should be very close companions.

So much so, even if you can't learn Luke's cunning.You can also learn some of Luke's maturity.

"Long time no see, Alice."

Luke greeted Alice first.

And stepped forward to give Alice a hug.Judging from the performance, there is no dissatisfaction or doubt at all.

It doesn't look like it's here to deal with the problem.More like on vacation.
