Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

After eating and drinking, a long time passed, the sky had already darkened, and the howling wind and snow outside seemed to become more intense.

But the atmosphere inside the restaurant at No. 12 Grimmauld Place has already been heated up.

Dumbledore finished his Christmas dinner and drank a few glasses of honey and sherry before returning to Hogwarts. He seemed to have some official business to deal with.

But what made Harry happy was that Tiera stayed.

At the dinner just now, Mrs. Weasley's knot in her heart seemed to be gradually untied with the joint efforts of Dumbledore and Mr. Weasley. She no longer rejected Tiera so much, and even started to let Harry give her to her after dinner.

Tiera brought over a bowl of custard tarts that she had just finished cooking.

——Although Weasley was sullen when he did this, this was progress after all, Harry thought.

Harry happily agreed. It had been a long time since he had a good conversation with Tiera... Of course, last night's awakening from the cold field in Dreamland didn't count. Tiera's

Work seems to have finally relaxed a little with the arrival of Christmas.

Harry, Tiera, the Weasley family and their guests were sitting in the hall on the second floor of Grimmauld Place. Ginny Weasley was so wasteful of thin gold powder and gold flakes when decorating,

So much so that the originally elegant hall now looks more like a series of dizzying explosions.

Fred, George, Harry, and Ron were the few gnomes who knew that the angel at the top of the tree was actually a bite of Fred's carrot pie in order to steal it at Christmas dinner.

In order to punish or tease the goblin, Fred used petrified powder to make his big body stiff, then painted him with gold paint, put him in a simulated mini skirt and glued a bunch of wings on his back.

Then he secretly took his masterpiece from the garden of the Burrow to No. 12 Grimmauld Place and placed it on top of the Christmas tree.

The goblin whose shape was fixed by petrified powder was looking down at them angrily.

It was the ugliest angel Harry had ever seen, with a huge bald head like a potato and big, hairy feet.

They wanted to hear a Christmas concert by Mr. Weasley's favorite singer, Beckmann, whose soft warbling voice came from the large wooden radio.

Bill Weasley's girlfriend, and Harry and Tiera's former rival in the Triwizard Tournament, Fleur Delacour was also invited to spend Christmas at No. 12, Isolation Square. She seemed to think that Beckman

The singing voice was very boring, and he kept talking in the corner with a loud voice, as if he wanted to cover up the boring and soft music.

Fleur Delacour was the second person besides Weasley who showed an unwelcome attitude towards Tiera's arrival. Harry heard that the brother of Fleur Delacour's roommate's boyfriend was involved in the incident.

During the summer siege of the British Ministry of Magic, he disappeared during that operation.

Therefore, Fleur Delacour naturally didn't have a good look towards Tiera when her best friend's boyfriend's brother disappeared.

However, Tiera didn't seem to care at all, turning a blind eye to Fleur Delacour's hostile gaze.

The unhappy Mrs. Weasley kept pointing her wand at the sound controller, making Beckman's voice become louder and louder.

Hidden beneath a jazzy tune called "Tough Love", Fred, George, Ginny and Hermione played a game of cards.

No matter why, Hermione seemed to be deliberately avoiding Tiera. She just said hello a few times to Tiera at the beginning and then had almost no communication at all. Harry guessed that Hermione might not want to say hello to Tiera.

Proposed the decision to launch the magic stone refining set.

Ron continued to stare at Bill and Fleur's hiding place, as if trying to find some dating tips.

Meanwhile, Lupine was sitting by the fire. He looked thinner and rougher than before. He kept staring into the depths of the fire, as if he didn't hear the sound.

"Oh, come and stir my cauldron

if you do it right

I will bring you passionate love to keep you warm tonight."

"When we were 18, our hormones danced to this song!" said Mrs. Weasley. "Do you remember, Arthur?"

"Molly?" Mr. Weasley nodded and said, "Oh, yes...yes...incredible music..."

"Well... Tiera, have you been busy lately?" Harry chatted leisurely with Tiera.

"Busy, how could I not be busy?" Tiera said, "Since Hermione quit, all the calculations and verifications, large and small, have returned to my hands. Fortunately, there are many me, and fortunately,

The refining of the magic stone has reached the final stage."

"Hermione quit?" Harry asked in surprise, "When did Hermione quit?"

Hermione looked reluctant just now, but just a few hours later, Hermione quit?

"About...a week ago." Tiera said with a smile, "Why didn't she tell you? Didn't you notice that he suddenly appeared outside the Room of Requirement more and more times before Christmas?

Yet?"

"Well... yes... I noticed..." Harry said, "But she is always holding a notebook and calculating something... I also

I thought she was calculating the formula for the Sorcerer's Stone or something..."

"The calculation of the Magic Stone formula must be done in the Room of Requirement under certain conditions." Tiera explained, "Only simple calculations and calculations of the magic framework can be carried out in the outside world."

"This...is so..." Harry said, "Why did she quit?"

"I kicked her out," Tiera said. "She was too focused, so focused that her mental state was a little unstable..."

"Unstable?" Harry asked in surprise.

"One time she was too tired... so she lay down in a laboratory in the Room of Requirement and fell asleep, and then..." Tiera paused and continued, "Then she had a dream.

Dreamland..."

"To be more precise...she went to the secret realm, Kadasi."

"Ka Kadas?" Harry was even more shocked, "Where is that?"

"The residence of the ancient gods of the earth." Tiera answered briefly, "An agate city located on the high mountains of the desolate Leng Plains... The gods living there are far inferior to the old rulers.

So powerful, their appearance is very similar to humans, but most of them have long, narrow eyes and long leaf-shaped ears, as well as thin noses and pointed chins."

"Where did Hermione go?" Harry asked. "She met the dream gods?"

"Yes...and no..." Tiera said, "The Dream Gods noticed her, but before Hermione noticed the Dream Gods, I pulled her back."
