Chapter 345 "Father" 2
Little Barty stared blankly at the candy in his palm.
Maybe it's a magnetic fit, or maybe it's fate.
When Barty Jr. was in the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class taught by Professor Gunter, he was distracted by Professor Gunter's relaxed and eloquent talk on the podium.
The calmness and confidence in mastering everything that have been soaked in power over the years made Barty very yearning.
He knew that his father dreamed of becoming the Minister of Magic, but because the opponent was too strong and invulnerable, he put all his ambitions on himself.
Before seeing that old Barty’s insurmountable mountain——Professor Gunter, Little Barty only felt happy about his existence, and even felt a little grateful.
Gratitude for the other side's presence blocked the ultimate goal of Barty Sr.'s political career.
But after seeing the real person, Barty Jr. thought from the bottom of his heart that his father's previous ideas were really whimsical.
In the face of such a powerful and great existence, he even coveted what belonged to the other party beyond his capacity.
Little Barty only thought his father was rigid and stubborn before, but now he only thinks he is stupid and has no vision.
Little Barty burst out with unparalleled admiration and yearning for Professor Gunter, so he didn't want to be perfunctory in other professors' classes, but listened to the class seriously, like any student who wants to be praised by the teacher , trying his best to show his excellence and attract Professor Gunter's attention.
Little Barty was originally a genius, and he was better than most of the students in class even if he was perfunctory casually, let alone he tried his best to show himself like a peacock with its tail open.
Professor Gunter expressed his appreciation for his outstanding performance, and the sentence "good job" completely captured Barty's heart.
The feeling of being recognized is too good, and Barty Jr. desperately and greedily wants more.
then--
The sentence "Student Crouch performed excellently" made Barty Jr. go all out to do his best in every defense against the dark arts class afterwards.
The sentence "Student Batty's other courses should be good too", let little Batty change his previous perfunctory attitude, and treat other courses seriously and attentively.
The sentence "The relationship between Batty and his classmates seems to be a little tense" made Batty Jr. restrain his sharp edge, restrain his madness, and began to imitate the appearance of his most admired Professor Gunter, smiling gently and treating people "friendly".
Batty Sr. is not a qualified father, and his education and guidance to Batty Jr. are unqualified.
He himself never realized this, and neither did Barty Jr.
Before, he only felt that his father was different from others, as if there was something wrong, but he had never been able to figure out what was wrong.
But until he got affirmation, praise, and criticism from Professor Gunter, he didn't know what was wrong and how a normal father should treat his children.
yes father!
Every father naturally has patriarchal oppression and deterrence for his children, which will make children subconsciously submit, obey and imitate.
The child will be eager to get the approval of the "father", and will want to imitate the "father"'s every move, so as to get closer to the "father".
In the eyes of Barty Jr., Professor Gunter is more authoritative than Barty Old, and can bring him the awe and admiration from his father and patriarchy.
He might not be overjoyed by Old Batty's approval anymore, but he would be so excited that he couldn't sleep all night because of Professor Gunter's compliment.
In the eyes of Batty Sr., he was never good enough and always inferior, but Professor Gunter told him, "Batty, you are already great, you are a genius."
His biological father will only control him to follow the path he set, but Professor Gunter will guide him and encourage him, just like every "father".
How ridiculous!
His father is not like "father", but Professor Gunter, who did to him what "father" should have done!
If he has never seen what a real "father" should mean to a child, then Barty Jr. may have been in a daze, but he was lucky and unlucky to meet Professor Gunter and feel the "father" in Professor Gunter. The presence.
Therefore, he wanted to get more attention from Professor Gunter, and he longed for Professor Gunter to become his "father"!
------
Batty Jr. has always wanted to be recognized and trusted by Batty Old. Patriarchy has always been an authority in his heart. He has always had a fanatical admiration for patriarchy and the role of his father. and surrendered.
When he was tried in the original book, he was accused of two crimes, one was that he was a Death Eater, and the other was that he and Bellatrix drove the Longbottoms crazy.
Barty Jr. never denied the previous charge of "Death Eater", but kept denying the accused charge of "torturing the Longbottoms".
He kept denying to his father on the trial seat that he had done anything to the Longbottoms, and kept saying "I didn't" to old Barty. Instead of making excuses to the trial seat, he kept looking at old Barty. Patriarchy, pleading with the father, trying to gain approval.
Unfortunately, his father didn't trust him.It is estimated that it was also at that time that Batty Jr. was completely disappointed with Batty Sr., and at this time the factor of patricide was planted.
And his fanatical loyalty to Voldemort, I think a large part of it actually comes from the fact that he not only regards Voldemort as his "master", but to a large extent, in his eyes, Voldemort is still his "father".
The original book repeatedly hinted that he had a tendency to regard Voldemort as his true father. After taking Veritaserum, Barty Jr. declared that he would gain the trust of the Dark Lord, making the relationship between the two of them "better than Kissing a son is still kissing."
