Henry looked at Dumbledore in silence and asked," so basically what you're saying is, you pushed me to use obscurus and then deplete my life then offer a deal to extend my life in which there is no guarantee I'll be able to impress an almost 7 centuri d old alchemist with vast knowledge in Alchemy and magic. You want to make me a sacrificial pawn that is dispensable whenever the use is gone isn't that right headmaster? You're not cruel enough to force me to die but you're cruel enough to torment me like others. If that's the case I don't understand what will my role be and what are you?".
Dumbledore is stunned while Henry continued," by doing all this you indirectly told me you're not different from the dark wizards headmaster's. There isn't much difference, one will be in light and make plans to secretly push them into situations and offer hand when they're helpless. While another is in dark and directly harm others. What is the difference between you and them headmaster?".
Henry took a deep breath and said," so be it, even if I die I won't be a pawn in someone's hands. It's better to be the king of hell rather than being a servant in heaven. I'll spend my remaining with my own choices and if you make these schemes again I'll promise I won't hesitate to abandon those in trouble and they will fall victim to your plans. I won't fall for your schemes headmaster. You can offer this to someone else. But I'm sorry I'm not interested".
Henry stood up while Dumbledore asked," is there really no way for you join us Mr Wells?", Henry looked at Dumbledore and said," if you're sincere and push this deal without any schemes I would have gladly accepted headmaster. But you threatened my very life on this schemes along with others. It's ironic isn't it professor? Every time I build a little trust on someone the world will always threw how naive I was at my face and told me in this world the only person you can trust is only yourself ".
Henry simply walked away without looking back while Snape arrived from the darkness he is hiding and said," so the great Dumbledore failed to fool a first year and your schemes are seen through by him. Tell me Dumbledore, what are your plans next?".
Dumbledore tapped his table and didn't say word his eyes occasionally shined while Henry goes to his classes as usual. But he felt lonely in this world. He looked around and he couldn't find a single person he can trust. Henry sighed as he attended the classes.
Meanwhile Cassandra who wants to know why Henry helped him even after everything she did wanted to find if Henry is really an ungrateful person or is there something she didn't know. But she couldn't go to Henry not can she go to her parents. Even the people around her are telling her Henry is really evil.
She wanted to find the truth but the sight of Henry looking at her coldly made her lower her head immediately like she did a crime. Deep down she is guilty but she didn't know why she is feeling like this? She immediately wrote a letter to her mother telling her everything that happened and asked for an advice.
But the reply she got is - ignore him and stay away from him, it's better for both of you. Her mother told her this and she is even more confused. She searched for clues but the truth is deeply hidden from her. Whether it's Henry, or her parents or the people that are protecting her didn't tell her anything.
She wanted to ask professors but they said," this involves your family. I'm afraid we won't be able to help you miss vole ", Cassandra racked her brains for a solution. She saw Henry in the library and greeted him," hi Henry ", but all she got is a cold stare and Henry leaving without saying a word.
She want to stop him and apologize but when she tried to stop him he will just shook her hand off of him. He looks at her with disgust and walk away not giving her a chance to speak. Cassandra almost cried a few times and held back her tears.
