Except for a very few existences, there is no one in the entire wizarding world who is not afraid of Voldemort, even though many wizards think he is a madman and look down on him.
But looking down on and fearing are not mutually exclusive.
Because he is crazy, he is cruel, he breaks the rules, and even more because he has gathered a group of equally crazy subordinates.
"Professor, please be patient."
Dudley's tone was still so calm. He was looking at the Boggart with curious eyes and continued: "It's okay to let everyone see him in advance. You will see him sooner or later anyway."
Although it was generally accepted in the wizarding world that Voldemort was dead, Dudley knew clearly that this so-called recognition was not accurate.
That thing will come back sooner or later.
Turning a Boggart into Voldemort wasn't just a whim.
Anyway, there was a mortal feud between him and Voldemort. Whether it was his status as Harry's eldest cousin or his repeated attempts to destroy his Horcruxes, Voldemort would try his best to kill him.
In this case, it is better to make fewer enemies and more friends.
With Voldemort's stingy mind, he would not tolerate anyone insulting him, even if the other person was just a young wizard.
And no matter how strong this guy without a nose is, can he block the spells of tens of thousands of wizards?
Decades ago, Mr. Greenwald, who was as famous as Dumbledore and known as the "most dangerous dark wizard in history", also had the experience of being united by other wizards to block the curse.
The main reason why Voldemort is so dangerous is because he was exaggerated and his methods were so cruel that no one dared to resist.
Humanity's greatest fear stems from the unknown.
Take it out for a walk in advance so that everyone can get familiar with it, and you won't be so scared when you meet them.
"Professor, don't worry, I created it and I can control it."
Before absorbing a certain amount of fear, although a Boggart can transform into Voldemort, its essence is still a Boggart, it does not have the memory of Voldemort, and there is an upper limit to the abilities it can exert.
Even the attack method was what Dudley remembered.
Otherwise, we can really form an army of Voldemort transformed from Boggarts.
"You have no idea of the danger he's in. You're playing with fire."
It's not that I don't want to believe Dudley, it's just that 'this thing' is too dangerous.
He can't take risks.
"Funny!"
Lupine cast another spell, but the Boggart was one step faster than him.
The wand jumped high and fell gently.
This time Lupine's wand was knocked down, rolling on the ground and coming to the Boggart's feet.
"So I was playing with fire, and you thought the fire wasn't big enough, so you poured a little gasoline on it?" Dudley joked.
Lupine:.
As Dudley spoke, the Boggart had already picked up his wand.
"Get out of here quickly."
"Go tell Professor Dumbledore them."
Lupine shouted loudly, but no little wizard listened to him.
In fact, the little wizards didn't have much fear. Even if the professor failed, wouldn't Dudley still be there?
Their experiences over the years have taught them that the professor may not be reliable, but Dudley must be.
As long as Mr. Dursley was there, there was nothing to fear.
As long as the discipline team is there, it's absolutely safe.
Dudley's reputation at Hogwarts has far surpassed that of the professors, even the dean of the college.
"Come on, attack me."
Dudley also took out his wand and pointed at the Boggart: "Let's do a duel demonstration."
"Do you still remember how to duel?"
While Dudley was talking, Boggart raised his hand and there was a green light.
Dudley noticed its small movements and blocked it with a wave of his hand, and also made a very brief comment.
"The strength is good, much stronger than ordinary wizards."
Boggart didn't say anything, raised his hand and saw another light.
Unsurprisingly, he was blocked again.
Several consecutive attacks were defeated by Dudley like a fly.
Dudley seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said: "The first thing in a duel should be to bow, but you haven't bowed yet."
As he spoke, he squeezed the wand and pressed it down gently. Boggart was horrified to find that his body bent over uncontrollably.
Even if Dudley only uses magic from this world, he is at least an elite wizard with the wand in his hand.
The Boggart's abilities are all about stealing Dudley's thoughts, and the manifested abilities are completely at the mercy of Dudley.
Theoretically, Lupine would not lose to this Boggart. If he calmed down and took the Boggart seriously, the Boggart would not have much chance of winning, let alone having his wand taken away.
It's a pity that he was frightened by Voldemort transformed by Boggart.
Self-disruption.
You see, when a person's reputation reaches a certain level, he will have his own power and form a kind of psychological oppression on the enemy. Even a fake product can exert 120% of its strength.
"The way you bow is so ugly."
Dudley made a casual comment, then turned around and said to the other young wizards: "Everyone, remember, if you have conflicts with other wizards in the wild, especially dark wizards, you must not follow the spirit of wizard duels with them."
"No need to bow, just like this"
Dudley turned his hand behind his back and pointed behind him.
"Expelliarmus."
The Boggart, who had just straightened up and wanted to sneak attack Dudley, was hit again, and the wand flew out before it was even warmed.
The Boggart hit the ground hard and was thrown to pieces, with stars popping up in his eyes.
"There's no need to tell them any wizard rules. Defeat him first."
Dudley's words made the little wizards nod their heads.
'its not right? Shouldn't this guy be afraid of himself? Why are there no signs of fear at all? '
With his brain, the Boggart really couldn't figure out why he could torture Dudley like a chicken when he should be afraid of him. He couldn't feel any fear from him at all.
Dudley's purpose is to defeat Voldemort in front of a group of young wizards.
Even if it is false, it will reduce the fear of Voldemort in the hearts of young wizards.
There will be more and more similar things like this in the future.
He is different from those idiots at the Ministry of Magic. Even after the other party disappeared for so many years, they still failed to eliminate the impact on other wizards. If they did not damage his prestige, they would still build momentum for him. For more than ten years, they still did not dare to call him by his first name. , to be called a mysterious man. To some extent, it makes people more and more afraid of him.
This kind of honey operation seems to be specially promoted for Voldemort.
It would be better to do nothing and let it fade away.
Even if it’s only been a few years, no one will remember who you are.
Just like a certain demon king who almost destroyed the world in a certain world, how many people still remember him more than ten years later?
"Professor Lupin, I think you don't need this Boggart anymore."
Dudley said as he took out an empty red and white ball from his waist and threw it towards the Boggart whose body was gradually becoming blurry.
With a flash of white light, the Boggart was taken in.
"I accepted it unceremoniously."
