Chapter 111 Our plan is to have no plan
Looking at Dumbledore's deep eyes, Sivan felt very stressed.
"Why do you suddenly ask like this?" Xiwen forced a smile and asked in a low voice.
"Because I have a very important plan, and I will probably need your help." Dumbledore looked at Sivan and said seriously.
Without waiting for Sivan to respond, Dumbledore continued: "In fact, I went to see Ms. Ravenclaw specifically, and she thinks you can be trusted."
"Of course Helena believes in me." Xiwen said with a slight smile.
"No, when I say Ms. Ravenclaw, I mean Ms. Rowena Ravenclaw." Dumbledore shook his head and said to Sivan. "I secretly went to the Room of Requirement once, and I have to say, Ms. Ravenclaw's methods are really eye-opening!"
"Did Ms. Ravenclaw tell you my true origin?" Sivan frowned slightly. He didn't know what Ravenclaw told Dumbledore and whether it would affect the young wizard Sivan who was still in school.
"I didn't expect you to come from another universe, Mr. Strange." Dumbledore nodded and said. "That being the case, other things can be easily explained - different spell systems, different soul states, and different concepts."
"You must have taught Sivan, the young wizard of the Rozier family, all those novel spells he learned, right?" Dumbledore asked.
Hearing this, Xiwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least the true relationship between the ghost Sivan and the little wizard Sivan was not known to Dumbledore, otherwise he would really not know how to use the identity of the little wizard Sivan to face the Transfiguration Professor...
"I taught him." Ghost Xiwen nodded and said without changing his expression. "Xiwen helped me a lot when I was locked up in the dungeon."
"I know." Dumbledore nodded slightly, unconsciously playing with the silver diamond-shaped pendant on his wrist, as if thinking about something.
Xiwen looked at the blood pact in his hand that was glowing with a faint red light. He finally couldn't hold his breath and asked, "Professor Dumbledore, what do you need my help with?"
Dumbledore then asked again: "Have you ever heard of Grindelwald, Mr. Strange?"
Xiwen nodded. What he was thinking about was the scene when he met Grindelwald at the Opera Garnier in Paris, and what he saw in Flamel's Phoenix Relief book, Dumbledore's tone and attitude when he was about to meet Grindelwald. .
"To tell you the truth, I met with Grindelwald a few days ago. I hoped he would stop, but the result was not very good." Dumbledore said solemnly. "He is determined to start a war against the Muggle world. But this kind of war will obviously bring heavy disaster to both the magical world and the Muggle world!"
"So, what do you need me to do?" Xiwen took a deep breath and asked softly.
"I heard that you have a spell that can open a mirror world..."
……
After leaving Dumbledore's office, Ghost Sivan drifted to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor in a daze.
Opposite the tapestry where the troll beat Barnabas silly, a smooth door appeared on the wall.
Sivan walked through the door and entered an elegant room filled with blue and bronze tones.
The pure white marble statue of Ravenclaw still sits on the mysterious and elegant tall bronze chair, with a beautiful but somewhat stern face.
"I knew you would come to me, so I opened the door in advance." Ms. Ravenclaw said. "I guess you want to know why I told Dumbledore your secret."
Xiwen nodded slightly. He was indeed curious as to why Ravenclaw would tell another person this secret that only their mother, daughter and Sivan knew.
"First of all, I want to ask you, what kind of person do you think Dumbledore is?" Ravenclaw said to Sivan with a smile.
Sivan thought for a while, and unconsciously recalled Dumbledore's ease and comfort when facing the enemy, his ease when teaching, his powerful momentum when chanting spells, and how he planned the whereabouts of himself and Newt, thus easily blocking him. Grindelwald's plan.
"Profound knowledge, powerful magic, superb strength, good at planning..." Xiwen commented pertinently.
Ravenclaw nodded, looked at Xiwen and said, "Since you have such a high opinion of him, have you ever thought that with his wisdom he would inevitably doubt your true identity?"
Xiwen was stunned. In fact, it's not that he has never worried about this problem, but he has always been avoiding it subconsciously, so that he gradually downplayed it.
"So instead of letting him doubt your identity and purpose, it is better to tell him part of your identity choice directly. This will not only dispel his suspicion, but also hide your deeper secrets." Ms. Ravenclaw's words were precise. It is to the point, every sentence hits the point, and it analyzes Xiwen's current situation incisively and vividly.
Xiwen suddenly realized and understood her good intentions.
Despite this, Sivan still had a puzzle that remained unanswered, which was also his biggest motivation for coming to find Ms. Ravenclaw.
"Do you think Dumbledore can really thwart Grindelwald's plan?" Sivan asked.
Sivan still clearly remembers what Dumbledore said to him——
"Grindelwald has the ability to foresee some fragments of the future, and any of our plans may be noticed by him. So our plan is that there is no plan!" Dumbledore said. "What I need you to do is trust me unconditionally. Even if what I ask you to do does not conform to your intuition or goes against your will!"
Xiwen felt a little at a loss when he thought of this. If Grindelwald abandons all plans just because he has the ability to foresee fragments of the future, wouldn't such an action simply depend on luck to see which side has better luck?
So Xiwen asked his doubts without hesitation.
At that time, Dumbledore responded paradoxically: "So I need you to join us, Mr. Strange!"
Could it be that Dumbledore actually had a plan in mind, but because of Grindelwald's prophecy ability, he couldn't tell his allies directly? Xiwen could only hope that this was the reason.
When Sivan's expression was uncertain, Ms. Ravenclaw said, "Do you think Dumbledore is a pointless person?"
Xiwen was startled for a moment and shook his head.
"Then you might as well choose to believe him, if you don't think your wisdom can surpass him." Ms. Ravenclaw said with a smile. "What a pity that he was sorted into Godric's academy!"
