Por que Dumbledore bloqueou Avada Kedavra de Voldemort visando Harry Potter?

17

Perto do fim da Ordem da Fênix, Voldemort estava pronto para "matar" Harry, e teria se Dumbledore não interferisse:

'I have nothing more to say to you, Potter,' he said quietly. 'You have irked me too often, for too long. AVADA KEDAVRA!'

Harry had not even opened his mouth to resist; his mind was blank, his wand pointing uselessly at the floor

But the headless golden statue of the wizard in the fountain had sprung alive, leaping from its plinth to land with a crash on the floor between Harry and Voldemort. The spell merely glanced off its chest as the statue flung out its arms to protect Harry.

Em Relíquias da Morte, Dumbledore instrui Snape que Voldemort deve ser o único a matar Harry:

.And while that fragment of soul, unmissed by Voldemort, remains attached to, and protected by Harry, Lord Voldemort cannot die.

~ Page 551, DH

Por que Dumbledore não deixou Voldemort fazer isso três anos antes?

Dumbledore não sabia ao certo quantas Horcruxes foram criadas

Dumbledore não tinha certeza se Voldemort havia criado Horcruxes. Ele adivinhou depois dos eventos de Harry Potter e a Câmara Secreta e Harry Potter e o Cálice de Fogo, mas ele não tinha certeza de quantas Horcruxes foram criadas.

“I have been hoping for this piece of evidence for a very long time,” said Dumbledore at last. “It confirms the theory on which I have been working, it tells me that I am right, and also how very far there is still to go...”

“But now, Harry, armed with this information, the crucial memory you have succeeded in procuring for us, we are closer to the secret of finishing Lord Voldemort than anyone has ever been before. You heard him, Harry: ‘Wouldn’t it be better, make you stronger, to have your soul in more pieces... isn’t seven the most powerfully magical number...’ Isn’t seven the most powerfully magical number. Yes, I think the idea of a seven-part soul would greatly appeal to Lord Voldemort.”

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,Chapter 23, Horcruxes

O pedaço da alma de Voldemort dentro de Harry deu a Harry um poder mágico especial

Capacidade de falar em parseltongue:

“You can speak Parseltongue, Harry,” said Dumbledore calmly, “because Lord Voldemort — who is the last remaining ancestor of Salazar Slytherin — can speak Parseltongue. Unless I’m much mistaken, he transferred some of his own powers to you the night he gave you that scar. Not something he intended to do, I’m sure...”

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Chapter 18, Dobby’s Reward

Conexão especial para ler pensamentos:

“The usual rules do not seem to apply with you, Potter. The curse that failed to kill you seems to have forged some kind of connection between you and the Dark Lord. The evidence suggests that at times, when your mind is most relaxed and vulnerable - when you are asleep, for instance - you are sharing the Dark Lord’s thoughts and emotions.”

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 24, Occlumency

O fragmento de alma dentro de Harry tinha que ser um dos últimos

“Precisely. If there comes a time when Lord Voldemort stops sending that snake forth to do his bidding, but keeps it safe beside him under magical pro- tection, then, I think, it will be safe to tell Harry.”

“Tell him that on the night Lord Voldemort tried to kill him, when Lily cast her own life between them as a shield, the Killing Curse rebounded upon Lord Voldemort, and a fragment of Voldemort’s soul was blasted apart from the whole, and latched itself onto the only living soul left in that collapsed building. Part of Lord Voldemort lives inside Harry, and it is that which gives him the power of speech with snakes, and a connection with Lord Voldemort’s mind that he has never understood. And while that fragment of soul, unmissed by Voldemort, remains attached to and protected by Harry, Lord Voldemort cannot die.”

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 33, The Prince’s Tale

Harry usou esses poderes para rastrear algumas Horcruxes e também salvou sua vida. Então Harry precisava da alma de Voldemort até que ele não tivesse rastreado todas as Horcruxes.

Harry não deve se defender quando Voldemort tenta matá-lo

“But . . . ” Harry raised his hand instinctively towards the lightning scar. It did not seem to be there. “But I should have died—I didn’t defend myself! I meant to let him kill me!”

“And that,” said Dumbledore, “will, I think, have made all the difference.”

Happiness seemed to radiate from Dumbledore like light, like fire: Harry had never seen the man so utterly, so palpably, content.

“Explain,” said Harry.

“But you already know,” said Dumbledore. He twiddled his thumbs together. “I let him kill me,” said Harry. “Didn’t I?”

“You did,” said Dumbledore, nodding. “Go on!”

“So the part of his soul that was in me ...”

Dumbledore nodded still more enthusiastically, urging Harry onward, a broad smile of encouragement on his face.

“. . . has it gone?”

Oh yes!” said Dumbledore. “Yes, he destroyed it. Your soul is whole, and completely your own, Harry.”

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 35, King’s Cross

Algumas razões para salvar Harry, quando Voldemort tentou matar Harry no Ministério da Magia:

  1. Dumbledore não tinha certeza se Harry iria resistir ou não.
  2. Dumbledore achou que poderia haver muitas Horcruxes, Harry poderia precisar de seu poder derivado de Voldemort.
