The Magical Principles of Natural Philosophy at Hogwarts

"Who did he sell his soul to?" Erwin asked.

There are no evil gods in this world.

"Voldemort, Quirrell is willing to use his body as a container to carry his broken soul." Dumbledore said the name.

"Sure enough, the number one villain of this century will not withdraw from the stage of history so easily." Erwin shrugged.

In this way, he had actually dealt with Voldemort himself before, twice, and escaped unscathed. This is already a record worth boasting about.

In fact, if he was facing only the wizard Quirrell, Erwin would have almost no chance of winning. However, when he was possessed by Voldemort and turned into a human and a ghost, it was actually easier to deal with him, even though he had a strong attack.

Abilities and near-immortality, but abilities are limited and cannot detect stealth.

"Speaking of which, I remember that the Dark Lord's proposition was also about blood? Excluding Muggle-born wizards?"

This is definitely not possible. There are only so many people in the so-called pure-blood wizard families. If they only intermarry with each other, inbreeding will soon occur, and then offspring with genetic diseases will be produced.

During the Middle Ages, the royal families of some European countries also held this idea of ​​"maintaining noble and pure bloodlines", and the final result was generally short life.

"He should have a deeper intention, but because he didn't have time to implement it, we don't know," Dumbledore said.

"I guess in the end he will be completely eliminated by Harry Potter."

"Maybe, according to the prophecy, one of him and Voldemort must die at the hands of the other."

"Prophecy? Real prophecy? Can you elaborate on its content?" Erwin suddenly became energetic.

Dumbledore pondered for a while, "Since I told you about the existence of the great prophecy, it doesn't matter if I let you know a real prophecy. This prophecy was given by Trelawney, the divination professor, who inherited it from her ancestors.

Although there is not much of the prophet's bloodline left, the content of the prophecy is this."

Dumbledore waved his wand, and rows of golden words appeared out of thin air.

"A man with the power to conquer the Dark Lord is born... to a family that has defeated the Dark Lord three times... born at the end of the seventh month... the Dark Lord marks him as his rival, but he possesses the Dark Lord

Unknown energies... One must die at the hand of the other, for both cannot live, only one survives... The one with the energy to conquer the Dark Lord will be born at the end of the seventh month..."

"That's it?" This was Erwin's first reaction after reading it.

He almost named who it was, and then gave an open-ended conclusion. The result was that Voldemort believed the prophecy and tried to kill Harry, but was eventually struck back by his own death curse.

"Isn't this really a trap you set for him?" Erwin asked cautiously.

"I still feel guilty for the death of Harry's parents."

Erwin knew he was being presumptuous.

"So this is how prophecy is generally? The accuracy of expressing information can only be so high?" He asked instead.

"The more powerful the magic, the more constraints it will naturally have."

Erwin was relieved in his heart. Naturally, the more shackles the prophecy was subject to, the better.

After all, this can be said to be magic that can directly affect the movement of the world.

Because of the nature of prophecy, Dumbledore hired Trelawney, even though she could only make one successful prophecy in more than ten years.

As for the divination class, the talented students will naturally see it as a waste of time and give up, while the untalented students... just treat them as if they are exempt from taking an elective course.

"It's getting late, you should go back and pack your things." Dumbledore finally said: "Your current condition is probably not stable. I suggest you stop trying to transform into a dragon. I will take you to see someone in two days.

"

"Two days? So urgent?" Erwin was a little surprised.

"In a way, it's really urgent." Dumbledore said meaningfully.

"I know." Erwin nodded.

"Finally, I hope you understand, kid, that Hogwarts will always be your home."

Coming out of the principal's office, Erwin walked alone in the deserted corridor.

The conversation just now echoed in his mind.

Dumbledore was willing to tell him so many secrets. Erwin guessed that it was because of his new identity as the so-called "original wizard", which was enough to be taken seriously in the highest form.

But when the principal went all the way to Romania to find him, he never thought that Erwin would discover a Wyrmrest Sanctuary and become an original wizard.

He simply went to save a student who made a mistake.

Is Dumbledore trustworthy? Of course, at least Headmaster Dumbledore is definitely trustworthy.

…

On the other side, in the guest room in the west tower of Hogwarts, Melanie was acting dignifiedly with a decent smile.

The cushion under her buttocks was very soft, but she felt a little on pins and needles.

The candle with the added magic oil was very bright, but the face of the old woman in front of me was very gloomy.

Yes, even though Melanie is actually older, she still thinks Professor McGonagall is an old woman.

She felt pressure, but this pressure did not come from the other party. The characteristics of human wizards meant that they would be very troublesome when they were in groups, but their weaknesses were obvious when they were alone. They were fragile and could only release one kind of spell at a time.

Effect.

The main source of stress is the place she is in, this school, where many of her abilities have been disabled, and this place feels like a prison to her.

And she can't escape.

Melanie began to think hard about what she should do.

The door opened, and the old man with a white beard walked in, said something to Professor McGonagall, and the latter left in a hurry.

Now she was alone with Dumbledore.

Melanie calmed down, put on a dignified look, and tried to look directly into the other person's deep eyes.

She was covering up her weakness, and the trauma she suffered in that Dragon Sleeping Sanctuary was far more serious than she imagined.

Vampires seem to have a long lifespan, but in fact they spend most of their lives in sleep and are not an immortal race in the true sense.

Therefore, Melanie's strength, experience, experience and psychological quality are quite different from Dumbledore.

"So, Miss Dracula, can you tell me how you met Erwin?" Dumbledore said calmly.

In as normal a tone as possible, Melanie told how she met a certain ugly baby dragon and suddenly wanted to take him to the ruins.

"So, were there any other bystanders when you opened the entrance?"

Melanie's mind moved, "There is Kutrus of the Mbo clan. Although I defeated him, he was not completely dead."

"Is this so?" Dumbledore was thinking about something.

After a while, he nodded slightly, "Thank you for the information, but I'm sorry that you may have to stay at Hogwarts for a while..."

"I hope to make a deal with you." Melanie suddenly said first.

Since she is already in a very disadvantageous situation, and the other party will definitely not let her go, she might as well seize the initiative, at least not letting herself become a prisoner. The other party is a follower of order, and she can take advantage of this.

"Deal?" Dumbledore was a little surprised.

"My core origin has been severely damaged," she said without hesitation: "And there are many people who covet my blood. If I just return to Romania, I will be hunted mercilessly, so I

I hope to get your protection."

These situations are real, and she believes that the other party also understands the cruel rules of competition within the vampire clan.

"Then what are you willing to give?" Dumbledore remained calm.

"All the information I know, including where Kutrus may be hiding."

As long as she can be called a collaborator, even in name only, her freedom will not be restricted too much. If she stays in this school, she can even try to get close to the boy, which is not a bad thing.

After all, he can turn into a primitive baby dragon now. What will his blood taste like?

…

When Erwin returned to the dormitory to retrieve and pack his luggage, he remembered that he had forgotten to ask Dumbledore what he would do with Melanie.

But it doesn't matter, he has no interest in that old woman, and it would be better if he never sees her again.

However, thinking that this vampire woman had protected him once in Wyrmrest Sanctuary, Erwin hesitated a little. Should he advise Dumbledore not to silence him? Although this woman watched everything that happened in Wyrmrest Sanctuary,

He doesn’t seem to be a pure bad guy…

He quickly decided not to think about this and to trust the principal! He would definitely take the most appropriate approach to deal with the vampire!

Looking at his suitcase and then at the four empty beds in the dormitory, Erwin felt that although it had only been two weeks, it felt like a lifetime ago.

When he got off the tower, he saw Professor McGonagall with a straight face.

"Let's go." The professor said coldly.

Erwin shrank his neck, knowing that she was still angry.

They walked across the suspension bridge, and Professor McGonagall didn't say a word to him along the way until they reached the entrance of a small village.

This is Hogsmeade, the only wizarding village in the UK. Arriving here means that you have left the realm of Hogwarts and can use Apparition and Floo powder.

Professor McGonagall turned around and said, "Mr. Frost," using the formal title meant that her attitude was quite serious, "I hope you can understand that Hogwarts will never suppress a student's talent, especially never."

You will be stingy with any knowledge. If you have questions, you should ask the teacher of the corresponding subject instead of stealing basic banned books and messing around."

Erwin nodded repeatedly, his attitude of admitting his mistake was extremely sincere.

"You should come to me for advice when you are trying to transform into a dragon! Then I will tell you the dangers of doing so! Oh my God, if Professor Dumbledore hadn't deduced from the clues that you had done such an outrageous thing and took action himself

If you find it, you will be locked up in a Romanian fire dragon breeding farm for the rest of your life!" Professor McGonagall became angrier as she spoke.

Erwin buried his head low. The best way at this time was to remain silent. He could feel the professor's concern for him.

Having said that, it seems that Dumbledore didn't tell her the complete truth?

Also, there is an original wizard in Hogwarts. If it is not kept secret, it will definitely cause an earthquake in the wizarding world where blood is supreme. Therefore, the fewer people who know about it, the better.

Professor McGonagall said she was tired, "I hope you can remember what I said today, okay, give me your hand."

Erwin obeyed.

Professor McGonagall's palm was rough and warm. She held the wand in her other hand and began to use Apparition.
