"The simplest explanation is that Old Dumbledore didn't realize the Locket was a fake until after he died."
That alone was enough to show that Dumbledore couldn't possibly know everything. He wasn't a god, and even he had moments when his attention wandered.
Moreover, Dumbledore had a fatal weakness: his younger sister.
It was precisely because of this weakness that Voldemort had tricked Dumbledore into wearing the ring set with the Resurrection Stone, causing him to suffer a terrifying curse.
"Still, if Old Dumbledore had discovered while he was alive that the old Locket was a fake, he might actually have been even more relieved."
That meant he hadn't been alone on the road to destroying the Horcruxes.
"Of course, before I grow strong enough to rival Old Dumbledore, Voldemort, or even a wizard of Grindelwald's level, it's better to keep a low profile whenever I can."
Dylan felt that he was still only a first-year young wizard. Keeping a low profile didn't mean much.
At most, it showed that he was cautious enough.
After effortlessly mastering the counter-curse for Fiendfyre, Dylan opened the System Panel.
Dylan had used nearly all the system's other functions. There was only one he hadn't tried yet.
That was the Spell Mastery function in the Magic Wand icon.
At first, Dylan hadn't had any spells available for refinement.
After obtaining the three Max Level Unforgivable Curses, he had felt even less need to refine anything.
But now, as the number of spells he had learned continued to grow, quite a few of them could actually make use of this function.
The reason Dylan had never used it before was—
"Damn, that's expensive!"
