From Kamal Taj to Hogwarts

"But, how do I guide Riddle?" Sivan asked helplessly, looking at Dumbledore's deep eyes.

"Actually, Tom's background of being born in an orphanage made his situation in Slytherin not very good." Dumbledore said softly. "Do you know what I was talking about with Minerva just now?"

Without waiting for Sivan to answer, Dumbledore continued: "Minerva just told me that Tom deliberately stayed after class and asked her some questions that she already knew. Minerva

It is speculated that he deliberately did not go to the auditorium with them to avoid his roommates."

"The little wizards in Slytherin place too much emphasis on blood, but Tom doesn't even know who his parents are. So it's hard for him to get the friendship he deserves in Slytherin. In fact, I think if he

If you are assigned to any other college, you can get a healthier school life."

"But according to his character, it does seem to be more in line with Slytherin's purpose." Xiwen nodded in agreement, and then smiled. "He is much better than me in this regard. It seems that many people think that I should be divided more.

To Gryffindor or Ravenclaw."

"However, this is exactly where you shine, Sivan." Dumbledore said with a chuckle. "As a Slytherin, you have the strong courage to intercept Professor Lorre alone, and dare to fight with Sylva

Nus faces the dark wizard together; at the same time, you also have the wisdom to deduce the real culprit who destroyed the magic node."

"More importantly, you don't care about Riddle's origin, do you?"

"Actually, it's not as exaggerated as you said." Xiwen said with some embarrassment.

"I'm not exaggerating, Sivan." Dumbledore shook his head slightly and said to Sivan. "As long as you can become friends with Riddle, you can subtly influence him with your kindness and make him less extreme.

Lead him to the right path."

Dumbledore's repeated compliments made Xiwen feel quite overwhelmed. He didn't know how to respond to his words, so he had to lower his head and drink tea silently.

"By the way, how is your cat doing now?" While Xiwen was drinking tea, Dumbledore suddenly asked a completely unrelated question.

Xiwen was a little ashamed of how quickly Dumbledore changed the subject, and he helplessly replied: "Well, it's pretty good."

By chance, he also wanted to pet the cat, so he took out his wand and drew a circle in front of him.

A small golden circle of light appeared in front of Xiwen's eyes. In the circle of light was a kitten taking a nap under a tree.

Xiwen took advantage of her unpreparedness, hugged the kitten in his arms, and cast a cleaning spell on her to remove the dusty dirt from the kitten's body.

Just last semester, Xiwen still insisted on learning alchemy from Flamel every week. Although it was difficult to make a ring for spatial positioning for a while, it was still very simple to make a collar for the kitten that could provide coordinates.

of.

This time, Xiwen determined the location of the kitten based on the collar around its neck and caught it.

Although Mao Mao felt a little confused about the sudden change of position, the familiar smell of Xiwen made her feel at ease. So she lay quietly on Xiwen's lap, enjoying his massage, and her throat made noises from time to time.

The sound of "snoring" is extremely enjoyable.

When she felt comfortable with the massage in one position, she would proudly move another part of her body to Xiwen's hand and signal Xiwen to massage her in another position.

Dumbledore looked at Sivan's doting expression on the kitten and smiled with satisfaction.

"Sivan, I think you might be able to persuade Tom to get a little pet." Dumbledore winked playfully.

Xiwen was stunned for a moment, not sure what the specific meaning of Dumbledore's proposal was.

"Oh, by the way, I was so focused on discussing what I wanted to talk to you about that I almost forgot that it was you who came to see me this time." Dumbledore suddenly asked. "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Yes, I still have some questions I would like to ask." Sivan looked at Dumbledore and asked thoughtfully.

"Do you know about blood magic?"

Dumbledore's expression became more serious when he heard Sivan's question.

"Have you already communicated with Professor Henriques, Sivan?" Dumbledore asked.

Seeing Xiwen nodding, Dumbledore slowly said: "Yes, of course I know blood magic."

"Professor Enriquez came to Hogwarts at my invitation to teach the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. I invited him to teach just to discuss some issues with blood magic with him."

"I heard that there is a kind of blood magic passed down in your family - when members of the Dumbledore family need help, the phoenix will come." Sivan asked curiously.

Dumbledore glanced at Sivan in surprise and asked casually: "Did Newt tell you?"

"Well, Mr. Strange actually told me." Xiwen silently used his soul body as a shield.

In fact, it is perfectly fine for Dumbledore to think that Newt told him.

Regarding the Dumbledore family's blood magic, it was first because Ghost Sivan was curious about the phoenix that appeared in Bhutan, so he asked Newt about the phoenix. Later, he learned about it from Newt's mouth

The relationship between the Dumbledore family and the Phoenix.

"You are right, the Dumbledore family does continue a blood magic related to the phoenix." Dumbledore did not pay much attention to this matter, and then explained. "In fact, I have a nephew. His name is Ori

Lius is a silent person."

"He has carried the Obscurus for too long, and the dark power of the Obscurus is corroding his body all the time. Now he can only rely on the healing power of the Phoenix Tears to extend his life. But the Phoenix Tears are not omnipotent after all...

"

"In addition, Aurelius had a friend named Nagini ten years ago. She was hit by a blood curse and turned into a Meredigos." Dumbledore said with some seriousness.

"Aurelius is dying now, but he thinks of his once-close friend and hopes that we can help her."

"But Nagini has been carrying the blood curse for more than ten years. None of us can be sure whether she still maintains her sanity or has been completely eroded by the blood curse."

Sivan became very excited when he heard the word "blood curse". The purpose of his visit to the Director of Transfiguration's office this time was actually to ask Dumbledore if he had any solution to the blood curse on Elsiona.

He quickly asked: "Professor, can you tell me what Meredigos is?"

"Do you know about Animagus?" Dumbledore asked.

"Animagus is the ability to freely transform into the corresponding animal form." Sivan nodded and replied. "Are Meredigos similar to Animagus?"

"It's somewhat similar. They both have the ability to transform into animals. But there is a big difference between the two." Dumbledore said.

"It is different from the free transformation of Animagus. As time goes by, the wizard as Meredigos will gradually lose his human thinking ability and passively transform due to the curse, until he completely turns into an animal without

Human animal!”
