Harry Potter Raven's Claw

"Are you free tonight?"

As soon as he heard Dumbledore's words, Mike's movement of pouring wine in his hand stopped.

This time, he did not continue to drink without hesitation like the last time, but instead put down the bottle of wine in his hand, frowned and looked at Dumbledore and asked:

"Is there anything you have to do?"

"I seem to have found some clues about Horcrux," Dumbledore picked up the red wine that Mike put down and poured himself a glass of it. "And given that you have a lot of experience in Horcrux, I plan to invite you to go with me tonight."

"Let me guess, you have found Chris, right?"

Dumbledore took a sip of the wine, but did not speak, but shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, Mike's mouth couldn't help but rise, because he had guessed that Dumbledore said that the Horcrux he found should be the Gunter ring made of resurrection stone!

However, in the original work, Dumbledore went alone, so why did he invite himself this time?

Is it true as he said, just because he has rich experience in eliminating souls?

Mike fell into deep thought for a moment.

However, Dumbledore obviously did not intend to give Mike too much time to think. He drank the red wine in his glass in a few sips, then looked at Mike's slightly entangled expression and said:

"It seems you don't want to go. Then forget it, this is indeed a bit too dangerous for you."

After saying that, Dumbledore turned around and prepared to leave.

"Slow down!"

Mike's voice made Dumbledore's face, who had turned around, stop and turned to look at Mike again.

"Huh!" Mike exhaled a heavy breath and said with some evil taste, "I think I have a better say in the matter of eliminating the Horcrux, so I'd better go with you, otherwise you might be seriously injured!"

Dumbledore didn't care much about Mike's bad words. He laughed for a while, made a cup-climbing action at Mike and turned away.

It was not until Dumbledore went far away that his voice rang in McEl's ear.

"We will gather at the door of the manor at 8 o'clock tonight after the wedding."

Mike raised his eyebrows and continued to think about the purpose of Dumbledore's invitation to go with him. At the same time, his right hand instinctively wanted to get the glass of red wine he had left.

However, he caught a short time, and it was not until this time that he realized that his wine had been taken away by Dumbledore!

...

Lupin and Tonks' wedding went smoothly except for the somewhat 'simple' in terms of etiquette. After the host announced that the two had officially become husband and wife, the whole wedding officially began.

The tables and chairs originally placed in the garden were all removed by the staff and replaced with a pure white dining table, with various pre-prepared wines and food on it.

These were arranged by Mike. In addition to these, there were two house elves making barbecue on the lawn not far away. On their side, there were a large number of musical instruments piled up. At this time, the magic imposed on these musical instruments had been completely triggered, and they were slowly floating in the air and playing on their own.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became cheerful. Ron, who had not eaten anything since he woke up in the morning, could no longer hold back, screamed and pounced on the dining table full of food.

Looking at Ron's embarrassing appearance of chicken legs and steak, the Weasley brothers closed their eyes in pain. Mike felt that if they could, they would definitely want to dye their hair black, because they could pretend that they didn't know Ron anymore.

As Ron's best friend, Harry obviously wanted to join this "battle". Unfortunately, Black beside him was holding his shoulders firmly, which made him die of a plan to fight side by side with Ron.

At the same time, as the protagonists today, Lupin and Tonks also walked down from the platform and entered the feast.

Black, who was still restraining Harry from letting him be rude, recovered his nature after seeing Lupin and began to grab Lupin and drink wildly.

Perhaps because he was afraid that he would not get drunk by himself, he even pulled the two brothers George and Fred!

Seeing them drinking so hard, Mr. Weasley was also jealous, but the sight that Mrs. Weasley, not far away, even gave him the idea.

There is no way, George and Fred's hospitality in France have completely conquered Mrs. Weasley. Now the two brothers and Mr. Weasley are not treated the same at home!

On the other hand, Tonks was not idle either.

At this time, she was pulling Hermione and Mrs. Weasley to talk aside. Because the distance was too far, no one could hear their conversation at all.

But judging from Hermione and Crimson's faces and the sight of Mike who occasionally glanced at him from a distance, it should be a pink topic.

The banquet lasted from afternoon to night, and after a whole afternoon of battle, Black's purpose was achieved - Lupin became a dead dog drunk and could not even bark!

However, the two brothers Black and Weasley were not feeling well. They were not much better than Lupin at this moment.

The drunk brothers Lupin and Weasley were helped into the room to rest as soon as the banquet ended.

As for Black, I don't know if it was revenge for him forcing the Weasley brothers and Lupin to drink. Mrs. Weasley and Tonks instinctively ignored him, which led to him lying alone on the lawn after the banquet.

Mike deeply understands this, you should know that Black destroyed the wedding night between Tonks and Lupin!

However, he didn't lie for long. Harry, who was overeating, soon discovered the miserable situation of his godfather, so he put his extended belly into the villa with magic.

At this point, Lupin and Tonks' wedding ended successfully, and Mike and Dumbledore also met quietly at the door of the manor.

"Good evening, Principal Dumbledore."

Mike, wearing a pure black combat uniform, greeted Dumbledore in front of him.

"Oh, good evening."

Dumbledore looked at Mike's combat uniform with a strange look. You should know that the weather tonight was as good as during the day. The bright crescent moon hung high in the sky, throwing bright moonlight downwards.

With its help, it was a little brighter tonight than usual.

Originally, in such an environment, pure black clothes would not only not play a role in concealing whereabouts, but would be more obvious.

But this is not the case with Mike's combat uniform. It seemed to have a strange magic power that twisted the light around it, making Mike look hazy.

Noting Dumbledore's eyes, Mike pulled his clothes and joked:

"Do you want it? I still have some survival, I can give you one."

"Is that?" Dumbledore's eyes lit up suddenly and he said with a smile, "thank you really, my size is..."

Looking at Dumbledore, who was excitedly starting to sign up for his size, Mike's expression was a little dull.

The conscience of heaven and earth, he was really joking just now!

In his opinion, combat suits should be just dispensable toys for wizards of Dumbledore, and they will not have any effect at all!

Unexpectedly, Dumbledore was so playful!

"Ahem! OK, I understand." Mike covered up his embarrassment with a cough, then changed the subject and said, "Well, it's getting late, is it time for us to set off?"

"Oh! Look at my memory! Then let's go now."

Dumbledore said suddenly, then reached out to Mike.

Looking at Dumbledore's wrinkled hands, Mike hesitated for a moment and finally reached out and grabbed it.

"Are you ready?" Dumbledore said with a smile, "Phantom shift!"

As Dumbledore recited the curse, a twisted black hole quietly appeared and sucked Mike and Dumbledore in!

At the same time, the same black hole appeared on a small hill thousands of miles away. With a crackling sound, two figures suddenly appeared in the open space!

It has to be said that Dumbledore has a very profound attainment in phantom shifting and phantom development. After landing, Mike did not feel any discomfort at all.

But this did not make Mike relax his vigilance. On the contrary, Mike took out the Blackthorn Wooden wand as soon as he was down to earth and began to observe the surrounding environment.

With the help of the moonlight, Mike could clearly see that he was on a small hill at this time, and Mike instinctively felt something was wrong.

You should know that it is July now, and it is the time for all things to grow.

Usually, small hills like this should have been covered with various trees.

But now, there is not even a single grass on this small hillside, and the entire hillside is silent, making people feel a strong sense of uneasiness.

Mike grabbed the wand in his hand again and slowly raised his head.

When he looked up, a deserted villa appeared in front of him.

Mike's pupils shrank suddenly, and he almost instinctively said to himself:

"Gant's Old House!"

As soon as this said, Dumbledore, who was originally smiling at Mike, immediately became serious. He frowned deeply and asked:

"You know here?"

"Of course!" Mike, who knew that he had missed his mouth, explained, "The place where Voldemort was resurrected was nearby. I also investigated this place afterwards. Look, it is that cemetery!"

Following the direction Mike pointed, Dumbledore saw the scorched earth cemetery, and the expression on his face finally looked a little better.

Seeing this, Mike quickly changed the topic:

"You brought me here. Is it because Voldemort hid a Horcrux in this room?"

"That's right."

"But..." Mike said as if he was puzzled, "Why? Does this have anything to do with Voldemort?"

Dumbledore was silent, he looked at Mike, and said slowly after a long time:

"This is a long story. I'll talk to you slowly after this matter is over. Now, our top priority is to solve the Horcrux inside."

"OK."

Mike nodded and said yes. Seeing this, Dumbledore stopped talking and led Mike to Gunter's old house.

The old house of Gunter is a rather dilapidated villa, or the title of shed is more suitable for it, because it is too broken at this time.

Its walls were dissatisfied with moss, and many tiles on the roof fell, revealing the messy rafters inside.

There were also dense nettles around the house. These tall nettles grew all the way to the window, covering the small windows filled with thick aged dirt.

This is completely different from other parts of the hillside. You should know that except for the scope of the old house of Gunter, the entire hillside is deserted!

Mike not only felt a little confused.

However, his doubts soon disappeared after he stood in Gunter's house, because he suddenly discovered that the entire Gunter's house in front of him was wrapped in a special magic barrier, and this barrier also contained rich magic power, but this magic power gave people an indescribable ominousness, which made Mike feel a little uncomfortable.

"Did you find it too?" Dumbledore said with a smile, "This is a powerful black magic barrier, which can constantly absorb all the vitality around it and convert it into magic to maintain the operation of itself and other spell prohibitions. I only felt the existence of this barrier that I guessed that there was a Horcrux hidden here, otherwise this powerful barrier would have no meaning of its existence."

Listening to Dumbledore's explanation, Mike's eyes suddenly lit up.

He was very interested in this barrier spell. As long as one was arranged in the Masonic secret realm, various facilities within the Masonic can be fully automated!

As for this barrier, does it belong to black magic?

Mike doesn't care at all!

Dumbledore, who was standing by, obviously guessed Mike's thoughts. He shook his eyebrows and added:

"But I've never seen such a spell elsewhere, so if my guess is correct, it should be a self-created spell. Now there should be only a handful of people in this world who can release this spell."

Hearing this, Mike's expression suddenly became cold and walked towards the gate of Gunter's old house without saying a word.

It was not until after walking in front of him that Mike suddenly realized that there was a dead snake nailed to the gate of Gunter's old house, and there was an ominous wave of magic power on it.

Mike instinctively stopped. Although he didn't know the specific function of this spell, there was no doubt that this should be a warning spell used to resist foreign enemies.

Dumbledore smiled and walked past Mike, reaching out to push the door.

As he moved, Mike clearly saw that the unknown magic wrapped around the wooden door was like it was crushed by an invisible force, and instantly turned into ashes and disappeared!

"Cruff!"

The old wooden door opened, and Dumbledore made a call to Mike.
