Vaulted principal's office

A long time passed after that.

Long enough for Gawain to quietly collect the fragments of his "murder weapon" - the teapot - and hide them in the dragon skin pocket.

He also stood in the corner of the office, the seat furthest away from Dumbledore.

"Oh, Gawain, you don't need to go to such trouble. If you like that teapot so much, I can give you one."

Dumbledore collapsed on the ground, his eyes finally regaining clarity.

"As for now, if you don't mind, could you help an old man? To be honest, I can already feel the coldness on my thighs..."

The white wizard said weakly with his usual indifferent smile on his lips.

He wanted to sit up as much as possible, but because he was too weak, he gave up after trying twice.

Gawain quickly walked forward, grabbed the old man's arm, and helped him sit on a chair nearby.

Some feeling told him that if he really let Dumbledore finish his words, he would lose something very precious and pure.

"It seems like, even though I don't remember it, there was definitely something going on here."

Dumbledore picked up his wand, glanced around the office and said. He frowned, put his wand down again, and snapped his fingers.

A brand new tray appeared on the table.

Inside are ceramic teapots, teacups, and the ever-changing snack bowl.

"Professor...you were in..." Gawain's heart skipped a beat. He considered his words and spoke slowly.

Even though he is an eloquent person who aims to be a barrister, he is very hesitant about how to express himself at this moment.

——It’s not about what happened in the previous office, but about how to clear yourself of “attacking the world’s most powerful white wizard, president of the International Federation of Wizards, chief of the Wizengamot, and headmaster of Hogwarts.” Suspicious.

In terms of level, what he just did was almost equivalent to giving the Prime Minister a hard punch, then pulling down the Queen's wig and pressing it onto the Prince's head.

Although there are differences in details.

But the essence is the same.

"It's over."

Gawain held his wand fiercely, wanting the instigator to feel the pain of this world.

After Dumbledore got up from the stone basin, Gawain felt something strange.

Because there was a phantom hanging over the old man's face.

No, it was more like his own human skin mask than a phantom, but it was misplaced and still struggling.

"Purest...malice?"

Thinking of this, Gawain's right hand shrank.

There was a shallow layer of blisters on his right palm.

The moment the phantom appeared, the silver handle suddenly became extremely hot, like charcoal fire.

That is anger.

Incomparable anger.

attack.

The idea conveyed to him by the wand was extremely clear, so he subconsciously did so.

But there was absolutely no way this could be used as self-defense or reasonable grounds. He didn't read out those damn Miranda warnings that Yankees love, and he obviously couldn't put the wand in the dock and say it was all his fault.

"What's more, it's a magical world.

I hope this is at least a statutory law or a case law, but it must not be a teaching law. "

Gawain's hand quietly made a sign of the cross under the table.

But to his surprise, Dumbledore waved his hand and stopped him from talking.

"The fact that I forgot tells me enough information, please don't remind me again.

Some existences, even just knowing them, can cause catastrophe. "

Dumbledore whispered, looking very tired.

“I know you’re curious about what just happened, but I’d forgotten about it.

What I can tell you now is just my personal guess, or conjecture, based on some rumors and legends, or even the nonsense of an old man. They may or may not be right, they may even be wrong, and it's not a good thing to know about them.

Even so, do you want to know? "

He looked into Gawain's eyes and spoke earnestly, even having to take two breaks in the middle.

&n

bsp;Gawain hesitated for a long time this time, and the tea was completely cold.

"...Yes, Professor. I want to know."

He nodded hard, but had no regrets.

"Perhaps you have noticed that Hogwarts is not an ordinary magic school."

Dumbledore tapped the table lightly with his fingers.

"There are too many restrictions, too much magic, and too many protections here, far more than the needs of a magic school. Even if it was established when wizards were persecuted and the wind and rain came together, it was too 'extravagant' .

You know, that was a thousand years ago. "

He took a sip of water and looked at Gawain.

Thousands of years ago, there were indeed many great wizards with extraordinary talents.

The study of ancient magic and runes was also more "elite" than modern times.

But at that time, the price of magic materials was also horribly high.

Wanting to build an almost "ostentatious" castle like Hogwarts, with protective spells and barriers that can last for thousands of years... Not to mention the manpower consumed, the material cost alone is enough to build at least another There were five or six ordinary schools, like Durmstrang.

"The Big Four could have built a simpler school, left their wealth, or used it to shelter more wizards, but they did so without hesitation. Salazar Slytherin himself even The family's territory and castle were donated, along with the wealth accumulated over hundreds of years.

Pretty confusing, right? "

Dumbledore raised his glasses.

"indeed."

Gawain nodded in agreement.

Colin often says, don't put all your money on one project.

No matter how good the project is and how beautiful the prospect is, it is still absolutely crazy.

Gambler behavior.

But the Big Four are not and cannot be gamblers. The fate of the entire magical world rests on their shoulders.

There is no room for neglect.

"I used to think so too, until I saw another place with complex restrictions, heavy protection spells, and the most powerful army a wizard could find, and then I suddenly came up with an idea."

Dumbledore sighed, took out a piece of golden candy from the small bowl, and put it in his mouth.

"Azkaban?! This is... a prison?"

Gawain sat up straight. He had read about this place in a book.

"Our awakening time is different. When I realized the 'talent', I was already much stronger than you. Perhaps he was worried that I would discover some clues, so he has been deliberately avoiding me. I only know that what it represents is A twisted existence that evokes your deepest fears.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, but it's like the school motto says.

Draiens nunquam titilndus. "

The old man smiled and nodded, but the smile quickly disappeared.

"Well, as for music, I think there is only so much that can be done for the time being. Gawain, it is very late, and you should go back to rest. You may soon find that sometimes, our talents are the same. A 'burden'."

Dumbledore stood up, patted Gawain on the shoulder, and ordered him to leave.

Although he was still confused, Gawain did not bother anymore, but simply said goodbye to Dumbledore.

“Who is Ariana?

Why is it the gate to hell?

And...why is that melody Dvořák's From the New World? ! "

Come with questions.

Came away with more questions.

Walking quickly in the castle at night, Gawain felt as awkward as his own sister.

——Although I feel dissatisfied, it can be considered a success.

ps: Kissing your sister is a Western slang term that refers to a barely satisfactory success.

ps2: Are you devils? I secretly hid some threads, thinking they were quite hidden and could be found. However, Dvořák’s origins in the New World were somehow concealed. This is my favorite symphony, especially the second movement.

ps3: Durmstrang’s school is relatively simple among the three. In order to hide the address of the school, they even force outside visitors to accept memory spells.

ps4: Miranda warning, that is, "You have the right to remain silent. If you do not remain silent, anything you say can be used as evidence in court." Article law, case law is the British and American legal system, As for the teachings. . If I comment it it will disappear. .
