Chapter 659: The Upcoming Barty Crouch Jr.
🕑 Added 2019-11-27 16:49:47 +0000 UTCThere was no doubt that this was a dilemma... flinching or facing the difficulties.
Evan thought it over carefully and decided to continue with the original plan.
The plan to stop Voldemort from returning this time would not solve any substantive problems. The difficulties that should be faced would become even harder. Evan did not like this feeling he had, and Caresius's words were also obvious. If he chose to stop it, they would no longer be allies.
The cooperation with the vampire was of great benefit to Evan. He did not want to fall out with him for the time being.
Moreover, in the face of the vampire and Bartemius Crouch, Jr. teaming up, he was not sure he could prevent them from taking Harry out of school.
Even if Evan and Dumbledore finally stopped them, the future would be harder to control.
In this case, it was better to follow the original plan. After all, the current progress was still under Evan’s control.
As for the future of doing so, Voldemort would team up with the evil god and even turn himself into an evil god and gain great power...
It was only a possibility, not the absolute one.
Evan still had enough time to find the secret treasure left by the Four Founders and become stronger.
Since he had chosen to follow the original plan, what Evan needed to do now, in the face of Voldemort that was about to return, was to weaken his strength as much as possible.
For example, he had to get rid of Barty Crouch Jr., the dangerous Death Eater.
"Caresius, I choose to follow the original plan and let Voldemort regain strength with Harry's blood." Evan gave his answer.
He saw Caresius nodding with satisfaction before the momentum of his body dissipated again.
"I was not mistaken about you. You made a wise choice!" Caresius nodded. "Running away won't solve anything. Evan... you're good... you're the best young wizard I've ever seen. Can I ask you again, are you going to be a vampire? Just agree and I can give you a lot of things ... power you'll never get as a human being."
"Not interested… I’ll never be a vampire!" Evan directly refused.
This was not the first time Caresius had invited him. In this matter, this guy had never given up.
"What a pity!" Caresius licked his lips. "In fact, I didn't come to Hogwarts for nothing this time. I have a lot of good seedlings that I might be able to absorb into the race."
"I can remind you..."
"Rest assured, I know what you want. I won't force anyone to become a vampire." Caresius's mouth showed a smile once more. "But if they agree, you have no right to stop their choice, do you?!”
"Hum!" Evan ignored him.
"This is a Portkey that has not been filed with the Ministry of Magic. I made it myself. Take it just in case!" Caresius handed over a black bat-shaped pendant. "I’ve set it up. It will send you back to this room."
Evan took the pendant and put it in his arm. Since he chose to follow the original plan, he was ready to see Voldemort with Harry. This thing could save his life in the face of Voldemort back to his power.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll excuse myself!"
"Wait, I have something to tell you about my own arrangements. If you just chose to stop it, I wouldn’t tell you these words!" Caresius continued.
"What are you going to do?"
"Do I have any other choices?!" said Caresius. "At this moment, I can only leave Hogwarts."
"Oh!" Evan turned and looked at him, reminding, "Don't forget who you are."
He understood the reason why Caresius wanted to leave. If he didn't leave, the vampire race would soon be divided by Voldemort.
Perhaps, Caresius, who had been at Hogwarts, would eventually be completely isolated.
Regardless of his ultimate purpose, this was a good thing.
Evan speculated that he would probably reach some compromise with Voldemort and stabilize his companions.
As for the effect, it was unknown!
"My current status was the focus of my discussions with Bartemius Crouch, Jr. last night!" Caresius looked at Evan. "After I leave, he will replace me at Hogwarts as Moody..."
"What, Barty Crouch Jr. is coming?!" said Evan in amazement. Things had returned to their previous track.
"Yeah, after all, the plan has changed, and it's getting harder for him to get Harry out of school," said Caresius with a smile. "The identity of Mad-Eye Moody is very useful. It can make it easier for him to enter into the task without arousing suspicion."
To this sentence, Evan expressed doubts.
As it should have been, the experience of Mad-Eye Moody and his status as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts were a natural protection.
But since Caresius went to Snape's office last night and made so much noise, the situation was completely different.
Now, it would be really strange if Dumbledore and Snape didn’t doubt Moody.
In this way, Caresius was not well-intentioned either, and it was no wonder that he was in such a hurry to make a trip to Snape's office last night.
Even if Barty Crouch Jr. finally succeeded in bringing Harry to Voldemort with the Portkey, it would not end well for him.
At first, Evan felt it was a bit weird. He thought that even if the plan had changed, there was no need for Caresius to expose himself.
Now it seemed that he was doing this entirely to dig a hole for Barty Crouch Jr., so that he would never come back.
It was really insidious. He must be very careful when dealing with this vampire!
"You know what to do, don't you?" Caresius asked softly.
"I know!" said Evan, waving and leaving the office under the smiling gaze of Caresius.
It was time to talk to Dumbledore, report the matter and listen to his opinion.
Evan went to the headmaster's office and began to operate Occlumency while walking, trying to empty his brain.

At the same time, Harry, Ron, and Hermione also got up early and gathered in the corner of the Common Room.
The only topic they discussed was how to help Ron survive underwater for an hour on the twenty-fourth of February.
"You can use the Summoning Charm again," said Harry. "You know Aqua-Lungs, the dive equipment for Muggles. It will help you breathe underwater. You can get a set from the nearest Muggle town."
"This idea sounds good!" said Ron delightfully.
