Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

The first lesson the next morning after the not-so-pleasant trip to Hogsmeade was Potions.

This potions class was still boring and boring, it was nothing more than asking questions for relief. Hermione Granger answered the questions frantically, earning Slughorn's praise. Then during the potion making process, Tiera always

The first one finished, Harry followed closely, while the other students always stopped cooking with Horace Slughorn's stop slogan, and then looked at the first one to finish with hatred and jealousy.

Those two people.

After the Potions class ended, Tiera grabbed Harry and asked him to stay, and then waited until all the students, including Ron and Hermione, had left the cold and damp Potions classroom——

"Professor Slughorn!" Tiera stepped forward and whispered to Horace Slughorn, "I wonder if you are free in your spare time? I have some things that I want to get rid of you."

"Ah?" Horace Slughorn first showed a surprised look, then looked at Harry, who was still standing in front of his potion table, and said, "Oh, Harry, Tiera and I have something to do.

Want to talk..."

"It's about Harry." Tiera said with a smile.

"Huh? About Harry?" Horace Slughorn looked even more surprised, "What about Harry?"

"I hope you can tutor Harry in learning Occlumency." Tiera said.

"Tutor...Harry to learn Occlumency?" Horace Slughorn showed an extremely difficult expression at first, as if he was hesitating about something, "Occlumency...

..This kind of magic...Can't you teach Tiera? You should be good at all kinds of magic, right?"

"I know Occlumency, but I don't know how to teach..." Tiera said calmly, "My talent lies in those magics that can be learned through rational calculations, such as this which is more spiritual.

I'm not very good at magic."

"And we all know that you are the wizard with the strongest teaching ability and the highest teaching level in the entire Hogwarts... no, the entire European wizarding world." Tiera praised, "Even Dumbledore is here alone.

I can’t compare to you in teaching.”

"Oh... Tiera, you went too far..." Horace Slughorn said embarrassedly but helpfully, "But, Tiera, you

, You know, I, I still need to cook, cook that thing."

Horace Slughorn said cryptically.

"Oh, don't worry, Professor Slughorn, this matter won't take up much of your time at all. I believe that with your superb teaching ability and Harry's talent, you will be able to love Harry in a very short time.

Let Harry initially master this magic, and leave it to me to refine it later."

"But Tiera... our refining..." Horace Slughorn said, still looking sad.

"Don't worry, Professor Slughorn." Tiera said in a "please relax" tone, "I believe that if you and I work together, the refining will not take too long, and...

....”

Tiera suddenly lowered her voice and said mysteriously, "Furthermore, I asked Harry to train Occlumency... because it plays a vital role in the confrontation with the mysterious man."

"Okay, okay, okay!" Horace Slughorn said through gritted teeth, "Since you said so, then I will agree."

Harry felt that Horace Slughorn's "promise" was full of reluctance and seemed to delay him greatly.

This made Harry a little curious——

Obviously, what Horace Slughorn meant by "that thing" was the Philosopher's Stone, and teaching himself Occlumency would obviously delay his refining of the Philosopher's Stone.

But according to Tiera, this magic stone was given by Tiera to return it to Nicoléme. In other words, it doesn’t matter whether Horace Slughorn refines the magic stone quickly or slowly. This magic stone No stone will belong to him——

Gu Ao

Unless he can gain some benefits if he can refine the magic stone early, such as using the magic stone to create a certain amount of elixirs or something like that——

But why should it be refined in advance?

At this time, Tiera had already agreed with Horace Slughorn on the time for Harry's first private brain defense lesson, which would be between six and nine o'clock in the evening this Saturday.

"Harry, would you like to go have lunch first?" Tiera said to Harry with a smile, "Bring me a smoked tuna sandwich, two salt and pepper egg drops, and a fruit salad without salad dressing. .”

"Ah?" Harry woke up from his aimless thinking, "Aren't you going to the restaurant with me for dinner?"

"I still have some things to discuss with Professor Slughorn." Tiera said, "Go quickly."

With that said, Harry was half pushed and half pulled out of the Potions classroom by Tiera, and the door to the Potions room was closed.

This made Harry a little disappointed, so he had to walk towards the stairs and go to the auditorium on the first floor to eat.

But why should it be refined in advance?

Harry was walking alone in the corridor on the basement floor, a little bored and lonely, and could only continue the random thoughts in his mind.

Do they have a delivery time?

Does Nick Flamel have a delivery time?

Or is it that Nico Flamel needs to use the Philosopher's Stone at a specific time and will never take it out again after using it?

No, Harry thought. He had met Nico Flamel during the battle at the Ministry of Magic last semester. He was a very amiable, enthusiastic and generous old wizard. If Horace Slughorn wanted to borrow the Philosopher's Stone to create immortality, Niccolòme would definitely not refuse the elixir.

So why?

Harry had arrived at the door of the auditorium unknowingly. He quickly glanced at the crowded auditorium, which was many times larger than before, and quickly found Hermione and Ron——

This was easy, Harry just had to look at the places where the grilled chicken wings were piled up the most, and he would be sure to find Ron there.

Next to Ron was Hermione.

Harry raised his feet and walked towards Hermione and Ron.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through Harry's mind. After recalling how the last magic stone in Nicoreme was hidden and how it was broken, Harry seemed to have figured out some key point at once -

"Nicholas is going to become a god!" Harry sat down next to Hermione and whispered, "Nicholas must have become a god recently!"

"Ah!" Hermione was startled, but soon she showed the excellent strategic qualities she had trained during Dumbledore's Army. She carefully looked around and found that no one was looking around, and then she relaxed.

He took a breath, and then asked in a low voice, "What? Why are you so sure?"
