The Bard at Hogwarts

Top of the Astronomy Tower.

The potions on the Transfiguration coffee table had long disappeared, replaced by freshly baked flower cakes and honey water.

In fact, after Hermione took out a bunch of potions, Ino didn't want to accept them at first, after all, he didn't plan to participate in the Goblet of Fire.

But under the girl's expectant eyes, he still accepted a few bottles of unpopular potions, such as truth serum and bone age.

Although he didn't know where Hermione got the raw materials, he also made up his mind to wait for the valley herbs to be collected and send them all out during Christmas, anyway, he was idle.

…

At the same time.

After the potions were put away, the coffee table naturally became empty.

Considering Hermione's previous empty stomach, Ino subconsciously called the blue light.

Surprisingly, the blue light really appeared.

This elf born in the flame seemed to be not restricted by the shelter, and the two-foot body appeared in the Astronomy Tower.

After a brief contemplation, he also roughly guessed the whole story.

The main body of the blue light is the magic lamp, and the lamp is hung in the valley of the shelter.

The main body did not leave, perhaps this is the fundamental reason why the blue light can break through the limit and appear in Hogwarts.

...

The top of the astronomy tower.

Hermione watched all this silently throughout the whole process.

After the blue light brought out the flower cake and honey water and disappeared completely, she whispered:

"What was that just now? I have never seen any related records in the book."

Hearing the question, Ino organized his words a little.

"You can understand it as the creature I created, a spiritual magical creature similar to the phoenix. Have you read Mr. Scamander's article?"

Thinking of the "vomiting" organization in the original story, he quietly changed a concept.

In fact, seriously speaking, it is just like this, the product of its own miracle, and the cause and effect relationship makes sense.

"Newt Scamander? His article was published in "Transfiguration Today". But I didn't expect that in addition to the phoenix, you also created this, but the phoenix..."

Hermione took over the conversation and talked about some knowledge about the phoenix along the way.

Time flies, and Hermione, who is in the fourth grade, seems to have gotten over her immaturity and has a mature magnetism.

Her voice is nice, but it can't stand the chatter.

Listening to the endless words, Ino was a little helpless, but he also knew Hermione's nature. This girl is not a chatterbox, but sometimes she can't stop talking on some topics.

"Hermione! Have you seen a phoenix?"

With just one sentence, Ino successfully diverted Hermione's attention.

Seeing the 'train' stop, he also decisively called the phoenix: "Kreber!"

The orange-red figure passed through the astronomy tower and then landed steadily on Ino's shoulder.

"You gave me a lot of potions, and I will give you a gift too!"

As if sensing what the master was thinking, Kreber turned his head and picked up a beautiful phoenix feather with his slender beak.

"If you are in danger, use magic to ignite this feather, and Kreber will help you as soon as possible."

As he said, Ino pushed the phoenix's tail feather towards Hermione.

To his surprise, Hermione did not look at Tail Feather, but her brown eyes were fixed on Kriber, and her love seemed to be overflowing.

Seeing this scene, Ino smiled silently, and he was absolutely confident in the appearance of his own phoenix.

Moreover, Kriber itself has the characteristics of healing and redemption, and its pure affinity is always irresistible.

"Do you want to hug it?" After a moment of consideration, Ino still asked invitingly.

In fact, he saw a bit of loneliness and desolation in Hermione's back just now. Maybe this is nothing for Muggles, but it is a little troublesome for wizards.

The magic of wizards is always connected with emotions, but if they live in an environment where they cannot integrate and find an anchor for a long time, it is probably really easy to get into trouble.

...

At the same time.

After hearing the invitation-style inquiry, Hermione's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and joy.

"Can I do this?"

Even though she already liked it very much, and even her two hands couldn't help wanting to raise them, Hermione still reservedly confirmed again.

Seeing this, Ino did not say anything else, but turned his head to look at Kriber on his shoulder.

The orange halo flashed, and Hermione also felt the warmth in her arms.

She quietly stretched out her hand, and her white and slender fingers tentatively pointed at the phoenix. After seeing that there was no resistance, she gently pressed her palm against it. The whole process was always cautious.

Perhaps this was nothing to Hermione, but after witnessing this scene, Ino recalled the scenes in her past memories.

In a slightly desolate orphanage, during Christmas, the children received gifts from upper-class gentlemen to comfort them, and they also had such expressions...

The indescribable joy and unbelievable expressions eventually turned into careful touches.

It was as if the chicks looked at the world outside the nest for the first time, always acting softly and timidly.

...

Unlike Ino who fell into a short memory.

Hermione did not think too much at this moment. When the phoenix appeared, she felt a hint of warmth.

When she was really held in her arms, a sense of happiness also arose spontaneously.

It seemed like everything was beautiful. I had read late at night countless times, and ran to an abandoned classroom to secretly brew potions...

No matter whether it was loneliness or hardship, everything turned into a warm memory.

The countless pictures of the past, at this moment, seemed to be put in exquisite photo frames, hanging in the depths of the mind, shining with a unique light.

On the other side, in just a few minutes.

Ino had already noticed the changes in Hermione, which were not external, nor intuitive.

This change was more like an invisible feeling, which he had seen once on Pansy, which was the condensation of magic and the transformation of emotional memory.

Now, he was relieved about Hermione.

At the same time, he also discovered the special use of his own phoenix, which seemed to be able to help wizards sort out emotions and magic, which felt like a psychologist for Muggles.

Probably, this also fits the name of Kriber, the healer and reborn.

Ino turned his eyes and looked at the girl in front of him holding the phoenix. Somehow he thought of Fide.

And similarly, a funny picture emerged in his mind: his parents gave birth to a second sister, and as the first-born brother, he was not favored all of a sudden.

Fide was aggrieved, picked up his packed bag with his beak, and flew silently towards the distance under the setting sun.

The sudden picture in his mind almost made him laugh out loud.

...

But after the joke, Ino also found that his two phoenixes seemed to be very unusual in the eyes of others.

Lucius had been in close contact with Fide and was almost scared out of his wits. Similarly, now Hermione was holding Kribbe, and it only produced a corresponding magical effect.

Miracle... Naturally, he thought of this concept.

But after careful consideration, it seems that all this is precisely because of this miracle of his own. Fide's original emotions came from the continent of Arad, and Kribbe came from the Middle-earth.

And these two places have nothing to do with the magic world.

With the change of thinking, Ino no longer doubted it. Besides, no matter how they changed, the ownership of the two phoenixes would never change.

At the same time, he also thought about the future.

In the future, maybe Hogwarts can set up a psychological treatment room or something like that, and Kribbe might be able to get a salary by then.
