Harry Potter and the 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 been heated up.

Dumbledore returned to Hogwarts after finishing his Christmas dinner and drinking a few glasses of honey and sherry. He seemed to have some official business to attend to.

But what made Harry happy was that Tiera stayed.

At the dinner just now, Mrs. Weasley's heart knot 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 testing.

——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, not counting the fact that he woke up from Leng Yuan in the dreamland last night, Tiera's work seemed to finally be accompanied by The arrival of Christmas brings a bit of relaxation.

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 looked 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 brought 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 large bald head like a potato and large, hairier 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, Harry and Tiera's former opponent in the Triwizard Tournament, Fleur Delacour was also invited to spend Christmas at No. 12, Isolation Square. She seemed to think that Beckman Her singing voice was very boring, and she kept talking in a corner with a loud voice, as if she 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 because her best friend's boyfriend's brother was missing.

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

The sullen Mrs. Weasley kept pointing her wand at the sound controller, making Beckman's voice get 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 sat by the fire, looking thinner and rougher than before, staring into the depths of the fire as if he heard no 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, big 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?"

Just a moment ago, Hermione looked reluctant, 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?"

"Yeah, I noticed it," Harry said, "But she is always holding a notebook and calculating something. 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 performed outside."

"Is that 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.

"She was so tired once that she lay down in a laboratory in the Room of Requirement and fell asleep. Then," Tiera paused and continued, "then she dreamed of the 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, "It is an agate city located on the high mountains of the desolate Leng plain. The gods who live there are far less powerful than the old rulers. Their appearance is very similar to that of humans, but most of them have long, narrow eyes, long leaf-shaped ears, 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."
