Chapter 368 Aurelius Resurrected! Ignoring his father, Zhongdeng, he embraces a beauty!
"Huh? Brother Aberforth? How come you've gotten so tall and big?"
Ariana's eyes widened in surprise, but she did not doubt Aberforth's statement.
Raised at home since childhood and never attending school, Ariana's mind is much more immature than that of her peers. However, Ariana's perception of kindness and malice is far beyond that of ordinary people; she can sense that the people here are all kind.
"This is a long story, let me tell you slowly..."
Aberforth said, holding Ariana in his arms.
He felt incredibly happy at that moment, as if he had returned to his teenage years, when he was telling stories to Ariana and making her happy.
Ariana also enjoyed this feeling. She remembered every moment she spent with her brother Aberforth, unlike her other brother who was always away from home and spent very little time with her.
Thinking of her other brother, Ariana noticed a man standing next to her who looked remarkably like her current brother, Aberforth.
"Could you be... Brother Albus?"
Ariana's offhand question caused Old Deng's tears to well up again, streaming down his face.
“It’s…it’s me! Ariana, it’s Albus.”
Old Deng said this while tears streamed down his face.
【Congratulations to the host! 】
[Successfully resolved the S-rank unfortunate incident - the accidental killing of Ariana!]
The host resurrected Ariana, freeing her from her Obscurial status, restoring her physical and mental health, and redeeming Albus Dumbledore from his regret of accidentally killing Ariana.
This also allowed Albus Dumbledore to rediscover the love and care he received from his sister.
This unfortunate incident has been perfectly resolved!
[Special offer, fixed reward: 1 S-rank fusion opportunity.]
[Bonus Reward: 1 S-Rank Fusion Opportunity.]
[Currently available magical item fusion opportunities: S-rank *6 time, A-rank *2 times, B-rank *6 times, C-rank *3 times.]
While receiving the system reward notifications, Dali watched Old Deng's struggle and emotion.
Even now, he doesn't dare to look directly at Ariana for long; his gaze always involuntarily shifts away.
If Ariana hadn't spoken up, Dali suspected that Old Deng would have hesitated and agonized for a long time before daring to take the initiative to talk to her.
In fact, the fact that Dudley did not recover the memories that could have caused Ariana psychological trauma means that the memories of the three-way battle between Dumbledore, Aberforth, and Grindelwald will not leave a trace in Ariana's mind.
After all, putting aside the accidental killing and Grindelwald, the mere sight of the two older brothers furiously exchanging spells was enough to leave Ariana with psychological trauma.
For Ariana to forget this memory is a good thing for herself and for everyone in the Dumbledore family.
Dudley used telepathic magic to remind Old Man Dumbledore and Aberforth not to let anything slip to Ariana.
This is an extremely cautious approach.
Even if Dudley didn't remind them, Old Deng and Aberforth wouldn't bring up this painful past.
Both are accidents, but using the well-intentioned lie that 'Ariana died from an uncontrolled Obscurus eruption' is more suitable for the Dumbledore family, whose current family bond is hard-won, than the fact that 'Ariana was accidentally killed by her own brother's curse.'
Of course, Old Deng's guilt towards his sister will remain deeply rooted in his heart and will not be erased.
And it will become even more profound because of this well-intentioned lie.
This was a curse that fate had brought upon Dumbledore, and he could only bear it silently.
"Alright, we can talk about family later. Don't forget, you still have a family member waiting to be resurrected! Ms. Nagini has been watching from the sidelines for quite some time now."
Dudley reminded Dumbledore's family to turn their attention to Aurelius's grave and Nagini.
Aberforth proudly told Ariana, "Sister, you're about to see your nephew!"
"Nephew?" Ariana asked, her voice filled with confusion and anticipation.
"Yes, but you need to close your eyes for a while first, and you'll see your nephew soon!"
As Aberforth spoke, he gently covered Ariana's eyes with his hand.
Upon seeing this, Dali immediately took action, skillfully casting a spell to overturn Aurelius's tomb and initiate the resurrection process for him.
Similarly, the restoration process aimed to return the patient to the state just before death, but it also failed to include physical damage and the euphoria that had developed within the body before death in the restoration process.
But all of Aurelius's memories, including those from his life and those from his many years wandering the world of the dead, were preserved.
Soon, the melancholy, handsome young man in his twenties was resurrected.
He looked very healthy and had a good complexion, quite different from his frail appearance before his death.
This is the miraculous effect that Dassault achieved by excluding the concept of bodily injury from the scope of recovery.
Orelius, like Ariana, is now in the same physical health condition, as if he had never been harmed by the Obscurus.
Of course, without the unprecedentedly powerful Obscurus that had been passively nurtured for over twenty years, Aurelius is no longer able to unleash the formidable magical attacks capable of shattering mountains and splitting peaks.
After being resurrected, Aurelius scanned his surroundings with great vigilance.
Seeing the seven wizards of different ages and genders, their wariness increased even further.
But when his gaze swept over Nagini, who was looking at him with tears in her eyes, all his guard was lowered.
"Nagini...is that you?"
Aurelius spoke in a trembling voice, feeling as if he were dreaming, as he actually used the fingernail of one hand to cut through the palm of the other hand.
Blood flowed out, and pain surged through my heart.
This is real!
"what you do?!"
When Nagini saw Aurelius harming himself, she felt both heartache and anger. Forgetting her shyness and reserve, she quickly ran to Aurelius's side, grabbed his hand, and examined it.
Aurelius stared at Nagini, who was so close to him, feeling the presence that haunted his dreams, and recalled the long decades he had been separated from Nagini, both in life and after death...
It was as if a spice jar had been spilled, and all sorts of flavors rushed into my heart.
Overwhelmed with emotion, he no longer suppressed his feelings and used his uninjured hand to hug Nagini tightly.
"Nagini, I miss you so much! Please don't leave me again, okay?"
Aurelius said emotionally.
These words made Nagini blush to the roots of her neck, but she still managed a barely audible "hmm".
"Brother Aberforth, stop blocking my way! I need to see my nephew! What's wrong with him?"
Not far away, Ariana struggled in Aberforth's arms, trying relentlessly to pry Aberforth's hand off her eyes.
I told her to close her eyes earlier, and after finally letting her see, I covered them again shortly after.
Isn't this just messing with her?
Meanwhile, Dudley, watching the Dumbledore family—some relieved, some happy, some playful, and some with slightly ashen faces—and Nagini, who was being hugged by Aurelius and was incredibly shy, lightly tapping Aurelius's back with her fist, also smiled.
Of course, part of his smile came from the system reward.
