Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

After a simple night's rest, Kyle and Cedric began their search for dementors again. In other words, this was their main mission for a long time.

Although Fudge felt that this kind of thing could be done by more professional Aurors, he did not object at Kyle's insistence.

As for Kyle's idea of ​​letting more wizards participate in hunting dementors by offering bounties, it was rejected.

Of course Fudge also wanted to solve the Dementor problem as soon as possible. Even when he last met with the Muggle Prime Minister, the other party also mentioned this matter emphatically.

Kyle's method certainly works, but it requires a lot of money.

After the mysterious man made a comeback, he received requests for galleons almost every day, and he really had no extra money.

This is why he agreed to let Kyle deal with those dementors. In this case, even one more person would be good.

…

On the other side, after leaving the Ministry of Magic, Kyle did not rush to find the dementors, but went to No. 12 Grimmauld Place first.

"Kyle? My dear, why are you here?" Mrs. Weasley opened the door and said happily: "Have you had breakfast? Do you want some sandwiches?"

"I'll take two," Kyle said with a smile.

"More is fine." Mrs. Weasley took Kyle to the kitchen and brought him a large plate of corned beef sandwiches.

"Where are Fred and George?" Kyle asked as he ate his sandwich.

"Didn't come back yesterday." Mrs. Weasley said. "There are too many people in the shop. They have to keep making those anti-dementor necklaces... What about you, why are you free to come here today? Are you on vacation?"

"Of course not." Kyle picked up the second sandwich and said, "I came here to see if Professor Dumbledore is here."

"Dumbledore?" Mrs. Weasley said, "He hasn't been here since he sent Harry here."

"That's it..." Kyle was a little disappointed.

"What do you want from Dumbledore?"

"I wanted to ask him if he had any Gublerian fire," Kyle said as he stuffed a second corned beef sandwich into his mouth and drank another glass of pumpkin juice.

After learning that Dumbledore was not here, Kyle was ready to leave.

But at this time, Sirius and Lupine happened to walk in from outside.

They were so lethargic that they looked as if they hadn't slept in days.

"Those werewolves are really dangerous..." Sirius complained: "Remus, if I tell you it's impossible for them to be on our side, don't waste your efforts."

"No, there is still something to gain." Lupine said, "At least we have won over twenty werewolves."

"That's because other werewolves look down on them," Sirius said.

The werewolves who were friends with Lupine were either thin or old werewolves with few teeth left. They had no fighting ability at all and were just a waste of time.

But Lupine didn't think so.

"This is just the beginning..." He said patiently: "And I have recently been in contact with a werewolf group hiding in Diagon Alley. They have been suppressed because they are unwilling to join Fenrir Greyback. I think this is A good opportunity.”

"I don't dare to trust other werewolves like I trust you." Sirius muttered.

But he also knew that he couldn't convince Lupine, so he simply said nothing more and turned to look at Kyle, who had just finished his sandwich.

"Long time no see, Kyle." Sirius greeted, "I seemed to have heard you say just now that you were looking for some Kubu fire. What is it?"

"It's the Gubulai fairy fire." Lupine corrected: "A magical flame that will never go out. It is a top-level alchemy item and is very rare... Kyle, what do you want this for?"

"In order to deal with the dementors." Kyle said truthfully: "In addition to the patron saint, magical flames are also their nemesis, but it is too tiring to keep using the fire spell."

Hearing the Fire Curse, Mrs. Weasley shivered and couldn't help but said: "Kyle, you are not an adult yet. You should not use that kind of dangerous black magic."

"I know." Kyle said, "That's why I wanted to find Professor Dumbledore and ask him if he still had the Gubler Fire."

"As far as I know, there should be some." Lupine thought for a moment, "One of the gifts Hagrid brought to the giants was the Gubler Fairy Fire. Such a top-notch alchemical creation, even Dumbledore's Lido won’t have the second one either.”

"What? Gave it to the giant?" Kyle's whole body felt bad.

He vaguely remembered that when he was chatting with Hagrid some time ago, he did say that before visiting the giant tribe, Dumbledore gave him something as a gift, but Kyle didn't know what it was, and Hagrid didn't say anything. .

He never expected that it was the Gubulai Immortal Fire.

Kyle only felt distressed.

What a waste. If you give such a good thing to the giants, will they use it?

Kyle sighed, stood up and prepared to leave.

Just like Lupine said, even Dumbledore couldn't have a second good thing like this.

"Wait a minute..." Sirius suddenly said: "Although I don't know if that thing is the Gublai Fairy Fire you are looking for, but if it is a magical flame that will never go out, I do know where it is."

"You know?" Kyle looked at him in surprise.

"Come with me." Sirius turned around and walked out of the house without explaining. "Hurry up, go early and come back early, I'm really sleepy..."

Kyle quickly followed.

…

Five minutes later, the two arrived at Gringotts Wizarding Bank in Diagon Alley.

"I need to go to the Black family's vault." Sirius said, taking out a key and handing it over.

The goblin sitting behind the counter took the key, checked it carefully, and said with a smile:

"Welcome, Mr. Black."

"Stop talking so much." Sirius waved his hand impatiently, "If there's no problem, just take us there quickly."

"As you wish..."

Another goblin came over and led them to the familiar passage.

"You'd better be mentally prepared, Kyle, this is not going to be a pleasant trip." Sirius reluctantly got into the trolley, "I really don't understand why Gringotts can't be entered with just a key. It’s the underground vault.”

"The key alone is not safe enough," said the goblin who had brought them here.

After Kyle also sat on it, the cart took them all the way, passing through the area where the real waterfall and the fire dragon were, and then walked forward for a long distance.

There were fewer and fewer vault doors on both sides, and the light was getting darker and darker. I don't know how long it took, but just when Sirius was about to vomit, the trolley finally stopped.

At this time, all they could see was a vault door.

The goblin jumped off the cart first and opened the vault with a key and a series of tedious operations.

The moment the vault door was opened, the dim passage seemed to be dyed golden.

Kyle couldn't even count how many gold galleons, gems of various colors, ornate armor and swords were piled inside, all thrown on the ground like garbage.

Sirius walked in and kicked a gem-encrusted mirror to the side without a care. His eyes bypassed the mountains of galleons and finally landed on the top of the vault, a torch used as a lighting tool.

The flame is not big, but it is very stable...

Kyle recognized it at a glance. This was the Gublai Immortal Fire he was looking for.

He had guessed since arriving in Diagon Alley that this thing was in the Black family's vault?

The Gubler Fairy Fire is a very special kind of magical flame. It will not go out whether it is in the water, on the top of a snowy mountain, or in a completely sealed vault. It is most suitable for ancient pure-blood families like Black. Show your status.

"How is it? Is it what you are looking for?" Sirius asked.

"That's right." Kyle nodded, "It is indeed the Gubulai Fairy Fire."

"Take it away..." Sirius waved his wand, ready to take it off.

Because the torch seemed to have a permanent sticking spell and could not be moved, he even prepared to blow up the wall of the vault, not caring about the subsequent safety issues.

Of course, Gringotts's treasury cannot be destroyed by just a random spell.

In the end, the goblin who was accompanying him couldn't stand it anymore. He snapped his fingers with a dark face and took the initiative to help Sirius take off the torch.

"I will return it to you after I finish dealing with the dementors." Kyle said.

"Are you kidding me!" Sirius immediately became unhappy, "I've never gotten back the things I gave away, let alone if you were using them to deal with dementors...

"I have been tortured by dementors for twelve years. I have long wanted to kill them... It's a pity that I have other things to do."

"Give it to you!" He waved his hand, "Also, everything here counts as the same, no matter what you like, you can take it away... Oh, besides the deed of Blake's ancestral home, that place is also useful. "

The ancestral home of the Black family was No. 12 Grimmauld Place, but he couldn't tell the detailed address in front of a goblin.

"No need, Gubulai's Immortal Fire is enough..." Kyle glanced at the surrounding Jinshan Mountains, suddenly froze for a moment, seemed to have thought of something, and then asked:

"Sirius, do you really want to deal with the Dementors?"

"Nothing in my wildest dreams," Sirius said without hesitation.

This is true. No matter who has been in Azkaban, there is no one who does not want to kill the dementors.

"I have an idea..." Kyle whispered about the previous bounty hunt. "The only problem now is that the Ministry of Magic is short of money. If anyone is willing to donate, I think Fudge will not refuse. By the way, You can also gain another wave of fame.”

"Galeung is not a problem..." Sirius thought for a while, but did not agree immediately, but asked: "But have you ever thought about what if the people who hunt the Dementors cannot extinguish the Lihuo... What if they let it go? That thing will always exist, but it is a much greater threat than the dementors."

"Don't worry, if they are going to change the reward, they must find a way to extinguish the fire." Kyle took out a bottle and shook it.

"What is this?" Sirius asked confused.

"The ashes left by the dementors are also proof."

Kyle said, "Only by bringing this thing here can you exchange for the reward of Galleons. If the Li Fire is not extinguished, they will not be able to get it.

"And I've already asked. The Auror office has magic items specifically designed to detect severe fire. As long as the severe fire grows to a certain level, an alarm will sound and the specific location will be displayed."

"In addition, the dementor's hood can also be used as a certificate. Both items have the same cold aura as the dementor, and they have their own anti-counterfeiting marks that ordinary wizards cannot imitate."

"If that's the case." Sirius didn't hesitate this time, "I'll pay three thousand... no, five thousand Galleons."

…

After both of them had packed what they needed, they took the cart back to Gringotts.

Because he had other things on his mind, Sirius did not complain about this uncomfortable means of transportation this time.

It wasn't until the two of them left Gringotts that he asked, "Do you think this can really help Remus?"

"I can only say that it is possible. This is a good opportunity, but it depends on Fudge's idea." Kyle said, "The problem of werewolves has always existed, and it is not easy to eliminate the barrier between them and wizards. .”

"I don't care about other werewolves..." muttered Sirius, "I only care about Remus."

"That would be much easier."

Leaving Diagon Alley, the two returned to the Ministry of Magic and found Fudge.

"Will you make a donation to the Ministry of Magic?"

After learning the purpose of their visit, Fudge immediately stood up.

How long had it been since Malfoy suddenly disappeared, how long had he not heard such cheerful words.

"Of course, Mr. Minister." Sirius said with a sullen face: "I know better than anyone how dangerous dementors are, and I am willing to contribute to this."

"Sit down, Mr. Black." Fudge said happily: "The Ministry of Magic will never forget your contribution."

"This is what I should do..." Sirius glanced at Kyle.

Kyle shook his head slightly, signaling him to calm down.

Then, the three of them started chatting.

Fudge had other things to do, but right now, nothing was as important as a donation of five thousand galleons.

As long as he uses it well, such a large amount of money is enough for him to restore his image of incompetence.

The content of the conversation this time was mainly about some details of dementor bounties, such as how to prevent someone from destroying buildings or harming Muggles while hunting dementors.

Kyle and Fudge talked most of the time, and then Scrimgeour, the head of the Auror Office, and Alastor Moody, who had received news from Sirius, also came.

There was a constant buzz in the minister's office, and Sirius, who couldn't get a word in, felt drowsy. He could only keep drinking strong tea to keep himself awake.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, he heard a familiar name.

"Speaking of werewolves..." Kyle kicked Sirius under the table and he snapped out of it.

"I haven't thought about how to solve this problem. Unlike the giants, they stand clearly on the side of the Death Eaters. And unlike the dementors, they can read newspapers. The reward method will not work. ”

"Yes, werewolves are indeed a big trouble." Fudge rubbed his forehead.

"But..." Kyle said, "I do know a person who is constantly running to solve the werewolf problem without asking for anything in return."

"Who is it?" Fudge became interested.

"Remus Lupin," Kyle said.

"Lupin..."

Fudge thought for a moment, "I remember that he seemed to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts a few years ago... I remember that he seemed to be the only werewolf to graduate from Hogwarts in the past three centuries. , Oh, I seem to be good friends with Mr. Black."

Although Fudge and Lupine had no interaction, he still revealed Lupine's identity in a few sentences, and it was very detailed.

Obviously, he was not able to become this minister simply because of good luck.

"Yes, we are indeed friends."

Kyle kicked Sirius again and said quickly: "We were running around in the dark forest two days ago. He hasn't slept for several days because of the werewolf."

"It's really hard work..."

Fudge glanced at Sirius, his tone paused slightly, but he immediately returned to normal.

"I heard that when he was at Hogwarts, he was still the most popular Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. If it weren't for his identity as a werewolf, he would probably be the first professor of this class to be re-elected."

"Who says it isn't?" Sirius sighed, "He is restricted in everything because of his identity as a werewolf. Sometimes I really want to do something for him."

"How are his grades?" Fudge suddenly asked.

"He was a prefect," Sirius said. "He got ten certificates after graduation."

"What an excellent result." Fudge looked at the director of the Auror Office next to him, "Rufus, didn't I remember you always said there was not enough manpower? What do you think of him?"

"Remus Lupin?" Scrimgeour frowned. Isn't this the issue of Dementors being discussed? Why did it suddenly come to this?

"But he's a werewolf..." Scrimgeour said.

"I don't think it's anything." Fudge shook his head and said, "He can't decide the identity of the werewolf, but he is still willing to help us, and that's enough.

"And he would fit the bill perfectly to be an Auror, wouldn't he?"

"But..." Scrimgeour still hesitated. "Having a werewolf as an Auror has never happened before."

"That's because you are biased against werewolves." Moody said roughly.

"I'm not biased!" Scrimgeour said solemnly: "But I must be responsible for other Aurors. What if they are accidentally bitten."

"Even if you bite, Remus won't." Moody sneered.

"Don't forget..." Scrimgeour said without giving in: "A werewolf on a full moon night has no sense."

"Okay, okay, don't argue." Fudge quickly smoothed things over.

"Now is a special period." He said, "We should let more werewolves who want to live a normal life see our good intentions and let them know that joining the Death Eaters is not the only path they can take.

"Remus Lupin is a good choice, Rufus, and I really think you could give it some thought."
