Who hacked my protagonist

Chapter 17 For the Greatest Good

The author has something to say: This chapter is a bit short, but I think it’s appropriate to stop here, so I don’t want to write any more O(∩_∩)O ha!

Albus had imagined a lot of situations where he and Gellert met, maybe they passed by deliberately pretending not to know each other, maybe they nodded and smiled at each other like ordinary friends who haven't seen each other for many years, or maybe they just had nothing to say He said that he was facing each other with his stick, but he didn't expect that the first thing Gellert said when they met for the first time after so many years was—"Albus, what's wrong with your nose?" His expression looked very angry Very angry, as if the man who hurt Albus's nose appeared in front of him now, he would immediately curse him to death.

Albus touched his nose subconsciously, then put his hand down quickly, he smiled: "It's nothing, it's just a small injury."

Gellert snorted, looked it over, and commented with a frown: "It's ugly."

"Yeah, it's really ugly." Albus smiled and nodded in agreement.

"You shouldn't have such an ugly wound," Gellert said in a commanding tone, and he waved his wand at Albus.

Albus dodges without hesitation.

"Albus." Gellert's expression became very terrifying, with grievance and disappointment in his anger: "I just want to heal your wound..."

"I know, Gellert." Albus looked gently at the angry man in front of him, how could he not understand how arrogant he was, how could he not understand how sincere and pure Gellert's feelings for him were, Feelings that never fade away, just like himself.

"But, this wound was left by Aberforth." Albus's eyes showed real sadness: "This is the resentment he left me at Ariana's funeral, so I must keep it "This is proof of the mistakes he made, and no one is qualified to erase it except for the girl who has long since died.

At the mention of Ariana, Gellert fell silent for a moment.

"Time flies so fast." He murmured as if talking to himself: "Albus, how long has it been since we saw each other?"

"45 years, eight months and 16 days." Albus replied calmly, looking at Gellert with an unbelievably soft gaze: "Gellert, we are all old, we have all become old men."

"Is there a handsome old man like me?" Gellert glanced at Albus and snorted.

"Even if the magic power keeps you in the most perfect posture, it can't turn back the time on your body, even Merlin can't help it." Albus smiled softly, his blue eyes were bright and sly: "Geller Admit it, you're an old man already."

Ah, this playful expression... Gellert was stunned, and the brown-haired boy in his memory suddenly appeared in front of him from distant memories, overlapping with the man in front of him.

"Yeah, it's been so many years." Gellert looked at the beautiful scenery around him, as if he was next to the moving lake again, his eyes were a little leisurely and nostalgic: "We were so eagerly looking forward to the future together by the lake, We agreed to work hard together for our ideals.”

"But now we are on opposite sides." Albus responded in a low voice, drawing his wand out of his hand.

"Do you still remember our original belief?" Gellert turned around, the golden sunlight was a little dazzling, making people look down on his expression.

"Remember." Albus replied, without a word, "for the—greatest good."

"Heh!" Gellert let out a deep laugh in his throat: "Do you still remember?!"

The originally harmonious and gentle atmosphere suddenly seemed to be divided by countless sharp knives, filled with a sharp and cold aura.

The two wizards, who had just missed the past side by side, held their wands in their hands and aimed straight at each other.

"Did you switch wands?" Albus asked, only then did he notice that the wand in the blond man's hand was not the one he had used.

Gellert laughed, with a proud expression on his face: "Have you forgotten why I went to Godric's Hollow?"

"Is this the Elder Wand?" Albus looked up and down in surprise.

"Of course it is, and if you win it will be yours."

Although he knew the result a long time ago, Gellert couldn't help but said again unwillingly: "Albus, come to me and conquer the whole world with me."

Albus shook his head with a smile: "Gellert, you know, it's impossible."

"For the greatest benefit, I have never changed this belief. I believe you are the same. Everything you do is never for your own selfish desires, but for the future of wizards." Ah Bu Si looked at Gellert with gentle and decisive eyes: "However, you have the future you pursue, and I also have things that I value and want to protect. The greatest interests you and I want to pursue are never the same thing. "

"Gellert, neither of us is wrong, it's just that from the very beginning, we each embarked on different paths."

Gellert stared at Albus and sighed suddenly: "Actually, I still think your broken nose is ugly."

Albus smiled: "There is no way, it is destined to be like this."

"Has the egg I gave you hatched? Is it some kind of magical species?" The blond man suddenly turned around, but Albus didn't find it strange at all, and replied seriously: "No, that egg never hatched." , Actually, Gellert, I think you may have been deceived by that old fellow Borgin, you know, Borgin-Bock Magic Shop has always been a famous black shop."

Gellert nodded, he looked a little disappointed: "Well, if I can get out of here alive, I'm going to beat that old liar hard, and then order him to take all the good things. Take them all out for me to choose.”

"Oh, if you really do, don't mind counting me in too." Albus said happily, "I want his amazing magic sugar bowl, huh, asshole like his father The little bastard shop owner bullied me, a poor poor professor, and has been refusing to sell it to me at a lower price. Gellert, if you really get this thing, you must send it to my tombstone, um, of course, if If I were to smash that black store, I would definitely send you something good."

"Okay, then it's settled!" Gellert nodded: "I don't want anything else, but the most precious thing in his store."

"Greedy guy!" Albus raised his eyebrows and laughed, but there was an indescribable sadness and desolation in his smile.

How did the two of them get to where they are now?

The two powerful wizards looked at each other. Although they were talking, their hands holding the wands remained steady without any tremors.

They looked at each other deeply like this, and suddenly they couldn't speak, and couldn't find anything to say.

"For the greatest good!" Gellert looked solemn and determined. He must conquer and rule the entire Muggle world and make wizards the most noble existence in the world.

"For the greatest good!" Albus looked straight at the enemy in front of him without flinching. He wanted to protect his country and the wizards behind him who pinned all their hopes on him.

For this belief in their hearts, they can give everything, crush everything, and fight to the end—even if the person standing opposite is the person they love the most and the only one they love!

In fact, there is no right or wrong, they just chose different paths, believed in different beliefs, and then went on resolutely and never looked back.

that is it!
