The Occult Warlock of Hogwarts

Sighing and shaking his head, DeWitt stopped reading. His reason allowed him to get rid of the temptation of the illusion - but that illusion was not a temptation.

Just like the steps a few nights ago, use the wand to touch the Mirror of Erised, feel the ancient magic words carved inside, and then feel each one and write it down, repeating the steps mechanically. But the actual operation is not that simple. Only if you are sensitive enough

Only people with special abilities can sense the existence of magic text and convert the abstract shapes in their minds into words on paper.

Another invisible person in the abandoned classroom stayed with DeWitt until his "work" was over - didn't he show up yet? DeWitt felt strange that this place would not come soon, if this invisible person

People have no other plans...

Thinking like this, the outline of a tall and thin figure suddenly emerged from the air, and then the outline gradually became clearer and colored, and the person completely appeared. When DeWitt saw that it was Dumbledore, he actually also

Not surprising.

"Professor," DeWitt said calmly, "Good evening."

"Good evening," Dumbledore said cheerfully: "Why are you alone today?"

"They're sleeping," DeWitt said, "and they won't be here at the end of the day."

Dumbledore probably knows everything, and he seems to know that DeWitt knows that he knows everything: "When can Hogwarts see the samples?"

"It's hard to say for sure," DeWitt said: "The follow-up work will be quite large."

Dumbledore did not go further on this topic, but came to the mirror, looked at the mirror with the same fascination, and asked: "Can you tell me what you saw in the mirror?"

DeWitt didn't want to reveal it. He thought it would be strange to see his family when he had a "family". However, Dumbledore was the principal. He took a roundabout way and said: "The beautiful and harmonious life I long for has...

With the right people.”

"Can you realize that it is an illusion?" Dumbledore asked: "Instead of making a poor imitation, give it to your friends, or use it yourself?"

"It's obvious, Professor."

"Those who default to their own happiness see the same as ordinary mirrors in front of the Mirror of Erised." Dumbledore did not take his eyes away from the mirror. Apparently he also saw his own expectations in it: "For the living people

For us, the important thing is always the real present - at least there is a clear boundary between real and virtual. You are more awake than other students, but I want to give a piece of advice as an old man, which has nothing to do with identity.

Advice: No matter what you plan to make next, don’t blur the boundaries between reality and fantasy.”

“No one knows what changes will be brought about by the emergence of new things,” DeWitt cannot guarantee: “All changes in the world have no inherent logic, and the laws summarized over thousands of years can also be applied in a certain way.

Personal thoughts are destroyed in a single thought."

It's just a thought, sometimes it's just a thought of one person. It may be a reincarnation of the previous era, it may be the creation of a new era, or it may be destroyed. This is what new things are, and change is not entirely a good thing.
"So it's just an elder's advice," Dumbledore continued: "If I'm the headmaster of Hogwarts, I don't mind providing some help." He took out a rolled-up paper he had prepared from behind him.

The parchment said: "This is a selection of relevant books."

It seems that the principal has a deeper grasp of Hogwarts than he thought - because before entering the abandoned classroom, Dumbledore's location was not shown on the Marauder's Map.

"Is that Harry's Invisibility Cloak?" After DeWitt took the parchment roll, Dumbledore said, "Don't forget to take it this time, and tell Harry to use the Invisibility Cloak in the right place.

”

"Goodbye, Professor," DeWitt said without much expression. He bowed to Dumbledore and put on his invisibility cloak to say goodbye: "I wish you a sweet dream."

"Good night." Dumbledore said at the end as if he was talking to himself: "It's used up. Now the Mirror of Erised will be moved to a more suitable place."

Move, move, DeWitt speculated on Dumbledore's intentions and left.

After recounting last night's experience to the twins and Harry the next day, they were not surprised that the Marauder's Map was ineffective. It was rather curious to guess that Dumbledore had given Harry the Invisibility Cloak - according to Harry

Harry's description, it was his Christmas gift, and on the paper given with the invisibility cloak, it was written that it was something left by Harry's father.

"I heard from my parents," the twins said, knowing something about this: "Due to the rise of the mysterious man, many people of the previous generation died or were captured in Azkaban. Harry's parents are undoubtedly related to

The mysterious man versus the hero..."

Seeing that Harry was also interested in his parents' past and was proud of his heroic parents, the twins continued: "Mysterious people are afraid of Professor Dumbledore. It is under the leadership of Professor Dumbledore that the wizarding world can survive."

to Harry's birth."

"So," DeWitt had been curious about this for a long time. How he looked at Harry - except for the lightning scar on his forehead - felt that he was no different from other little wizards: "How did you do it at such a young age...

...Kill Voldemort?"

"Shh-" Ron immediately jumped up in shock, and the twins also stared: "How dare you call the mysterious man by his name?"

"Is this difficult?" DeWitt felt that anyone who had seen Voldemort fleeing in embarrassment and sucking the blood of animals to extend his life in the form of a ball of air and shadow would have a hard time treating this "ruthless character" who once controlled the wizarding world.

A feeling of fear arose, but he quickly figured out the reason with his magical thinking: "He cast a spell on his name, right? As long as someone speaks, he can sense it? But the magic world has confirmed that he is dead, right? Already

There is nothing to be afraid of - are you even afraid of dead people?"

"Just one Peeves can cause chaos in Hogwarts," the twins said. "We sometimes thought about what would happen if the mysterious man also became a ghost and came to Hogwarts Castle. Maybe he would

Will form a united front with Peeves..."

"This is too outrageous," Ron couldn't help but say, "Suddenly it felt like the mysterious man's entire style had dropped."

"Then we thought about it," George shrugged. "The ghosts can't interfere with our lives at all. The only exception is Peeves. That is to say, if the ghost of the mysterious man really comes to the castle... all he can do is scare us."

Scare the freshmen."

Ron looked at Harry as if asking for help, but Harry just smiled uncontrollably.

"But seriously," the twins lowered their voices and said, "Although the Ministry of Magic claimed that the mysterious man was dead, they did not dare to call the mysterious man by his name in the announcement. And what about Professor Dumbledore? He did not admit it either.

Similar facts, when Ron was a child, we also heard our parents say - they said Professor Dumbledore said that the mysterious man may not be dead yet..."
