Hogwarts: Magical Elegy

Hogsmeade.

The evening breeze was cool and brought a medium-sized cloud.

It came quietly, and dropped a few drops of rain to send the dust back to the ground. When the air became slightly moist, it left quietly again, coming at just the right time and leaving quietly.

The sky is glowing with dark blue.

There is no sunset glow, no vitality from the stove smoke, there are only slightly damp ground and dewdrops on smooth and sharp places.

If war breaks out, Hogwarts will be the focus of attention.

Therefore, many residents in Hogsmeade left with their families.

This is why, in the cool evening, the entire Hogsmeade village looks like a quiet picture.

However, the intrusion of Xifa and a little thing broke this peaceful scene.

"Mr. Corwin, Dora will be here waiting for your orders!"

The little thing next to Xifa loosened his clothes.

He took a step back, bent down and bowed deeply to Xifa and said in a sharp voice.

That's a house elf.

House elves are generally skinny, they are very small, have ears as big as bats, protruding eyes the size of tennis balls, and have a relatively long and flat nose. They also wear damaged clothes.

However, although the house elves in Hogwarts today are thin, they are not scrawny, and their clothes are washed white but intact.

"Thank you, Dora." Xifa said casually. He was looking around carefully to determine where he was in Hogsmeade Village.

After all, it's not in the school. If a dark wizard seeking death attacks you...

"Oh! Mr. Corwin is so polite and gentle! Dora cannot accept the wizard's gratitude. Dora will be punished..."

The little thing's big bulb-like eyes began to fill with tears, and at the same time its body began to tremble, because it felt that it should not be praised and it wanted to find a way to punish itself.

Slavery has penetrated into the marrow of these creatures, and they will be flattered whenever the wizards they serve say a word of thanks to them.

"Shut up! Get out of my sight quickly!"

Xifa reacted. He grinned and said in a stern tone.

Sure enough, this is the familiar wizard!

Dora's body stopped shaking, and her frightened eyes also calmed down a lot.

It snapped its fingers and disappeared on the roadside with a snap.

But Xifa glanced at the trash can next to him calmly.

Tsk, it was actually hidden in the trash can... Elf magic is obviously much stronger than curse magic, so how could a house elf who was born with the ability to use elf magic behave like this?

Forget it, wait until you graduate from Hogwarts and officially enter the wizarding society, then look for those lost histories.

Leave this worry behind.

Xifa turned around and got into the side path. If he went from the main road to the Pig's Head Bar, he would have to take a lot of detours.

The trail just has a lot of debris.

——————

We arrived at the door of the store where Luna and I visited once last year.

Xifa was surprised to find that there was nothing here.

Is this the Red Bold Loyalty Curse?

Xifa was amazed, even though it was somewhat inconsistent with the written records.

For example, I still remember what the Pig's Head Bar looks like and where it should be, and it doesn't look like the neighbors are just devouring that piece of land.

However, I just can't really see it.

Because...there were only a few walls in front of me, which were the walls of the original Pig's Head Bar, and the small house just disappeared out of thin air.

Walking in and looking around the small courtyard, Xifa couldn't help but sigh that he was just a grain of dust in the ocean of magic. There were so many things he didn't understand and didn't know, and he couldn't see or feel anything in the courtyard.

The existence of magic.

Return to the entrance of the small courtyard.

Xifa took out the small note given to him by Professor Leslie.

Hmm...there's nothing written on it.

but...

"When you get to the door of the Pig's Head Bar, if you can't see him, light this piece of paper and you can get in."

It seems that Aberforth Dumbledore was dissatisfied with his brother Albus Dumbledore ordering him or asking him to help deliver messages.

The hut did not appear, which meant that Aberforth did not respond to him, and he had to light the note before entering.

The two fingers holding the paper pinched it lightly.

A burst of red flame ignited the note.

Also ignited at the same time was the ‘invisibility cloak’ in Western France’s sight!

As the note ignited, Xifa's eyes also burst into flames.

Xifa subconsciously took a step back and realized that this was just a phenomenon he saw, and the heat of the flames did not emanate at all.

The note turned into ashes and fell to the ground, and the Pig's Head Bar was born in the flames.

The sign of the Pig's Head Bar is still the same, still made of tattered wood, hanging on a rusty bracket on the door, with a cut-off pig's head painted on it, and blood stains soaked into the white cloth wrapping it.

"Tsk!"

Xifa took a light bite and was shown off. This magic is very effective and looks better!

Let off some steam.

Xifa adjusted his mood and walked towards the entrance of the Pig Head Bar.

When I opened the door, a strong smell of mutton and dirt hit my nostrils.

Damn it! I forgot to cast an air purifying spell on myself.

Holding back his nausea, Xifa put magic on himself.

Then he looked around with his eyes.

No wonder Aberforth Dumbledore was in a bad mood.

Judging from the layer of dust on the surrounding tables, it seems that no guests have been here for a long time, right?

After Xifa figured it out, he walked towards the only room with light.

When he opened the door, he saw a man who looked very similar to Albus Dumbledore, but he was unkempt and his clothes were a little sloppy.

"Sypha Corwin, right?"

I wanted to chat with you, but then I asked him what he meant by suddenly informing me to come to the Pig Head Bar?

You must know that today they worked hard in the herb greenhouse all afternoon and placed many precious herbs. They were about to go to the auditorium to enjoy a meal and then go back to have a good rest.

As a result, Professor Leslie was left alone at the entrance of the greenhouse.

After expelling the three women, the professor told himself that this slovenly man had something to ask him to go to.

Dora the house elf also followed Professor Leslie's instructions before sending Xifa out of the campus.

"Yes, Mr. Dumbledore..." He almost called out Professor Dumbledore.

"Okay, just call me Aberforth. My cowardly brother told you that you were the one who caused chaos in Hogsmeade last year."

"If you had revealed your identity to me at that time, I would have protected you. To be honest, I never thought that my brother could teach such an excellent little wizard like you."

So...are you praising me or mocking me...

Xifa touched his nose angrily.
