Ashes of Hogwarts

Early the next morning, a piece of news from the Daily Prophet shocked the wizarding world.

"Is Gringotts Safe?"Where does the wizarding property go? - On the incident of Mr. Ash Lothric, a first-class medalist in the Order of Merlin, who was blackmailed after being rescued by a fire dragon while saving money in Gringotts."

This report describes in detail how Mr. Lothric, who came to Gringotts to handle business, was unprovokedly involved in the attack after the fire dragon got out of control, and how Mr. Lothric paid a great price to finally help Gringotts eradicate this incident. How the evil Fire Dragon Queen was extorted by a group of goblins who only had money in their sights in the name of destroying Gringotts' private property.

It was so detailed that the goblins of Gringotts really began to wonder if they had actually done such a thing.

At the end of the article, the author also tried to promote the "Magical Creatures Breeding and Protection Act" to help more magical animals that are raised by people - the article is talking about slaves.

This report was of course written by Rita Skeeter. Her vivid and touching writing once made Ash doubt that he had really been treated so unfairly.

Of course, this incident is just a little disgusting to Gringotts. Its credibility may be reduced as a result, but it will definitely not collapse.

Even if it really collapses, it doesn't matter. Who doesn't have a basement?

The Evil Castle Financial Bank, a subsidiary organization of Hogwarts, welcomes all new and old wizards to come and handle business.

The first ten people to handle business every day can receive an egg for free, first come, first served, while supplies last!

……

But now Ash was on to something important.

In the wide square of the Dragon Academy, a huge Ukrainian iron-belly corpse lay quietly under the shadow of the flying dragon stone sculpture.

The giants of Hogwarts gathered here, and Hagrid looked at the corpse of the fire dragon with a distressed expression.

The new arrivals Lupine and Sirius were confused. They didn't know why everyone came here, and they didn't know when there was such a large mysterious space under Hogwarts.

"Professor McGonagall, do you know what we are doing here?" Lupine quietly asked the young cat lady beside him.

The young cat girl now looks exactly like she did when she was young, even more beautiful than when Lupine was in school.

"Just watch, Remus. The more you come into contact with Ash, the more you will realize his magic."

Although he was happy that two outstanding and very worrying students in Gryffindor could return to Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall had no intention of solving their doubts.

Some things are more shocking when seen with one's own eyes than when heard about them.

"Let's do it, Ash."

Dumbledore waved his hand and led everyone out of the square.

Under the huge stone sculpture of the flying dragon, only Ash and the body of the fire dragon that had been shot through were left.

Ash waved his cane, and a circle of gorgeous and sacred golden flames rose from the ground, encircling him and the fire dragon in the middle.

With the front finger of the cane, the flames were led by the wind and turned into entwining golden flames, rushing towards the fire dragon's body.

The moment the flames came into contact with the fire dragon, they were absorbed into the body, and then turned into a dazzling light.

The brilliance soon enveloped the fire dragon, and from a distance, it looked like a rising sun.

This is Ash's first attempt to resurrect a dead creature in this world, and it is a magical creature with wisdom and magic.

The cane was pointed up in the distance, and the ruby ​​held in the mouth of the mithril lion's head reflected dazzling light under the rays of the sun.

"Go back to basics!"

Catalyzed by the first fire, the fire dragon's body seemed to melt, gradually shrinking and becoming rounder.

The originally brilliant golden light was gradually dyed with a hint of red flame.

With a flick of Ash's finger, a flaming soul flew out and merged smoothly into the light.

For a moment, the entire Dragon Academy seemed to be illuminated by the sun.

call!

Ash's magic power poured out, locking the light firmly into the oval-shaped substance left behind by the fire dragon's corpse.

Gradually, the light shrank.

Only a dragon egg with golden and red lines was left in the air.

The golden-red lines surged like waves, radiating majestic and violent energy outwards.

Finally, the magic surrounding the dragon egg gradually dissipated, and it quietly fell from the sky, and was held in the arms of Hagrid, who had been waiting for a long time.

"Ahaha~ This little guy is so heavy, Ash."

Hagrid beamed with laughter.

This is what Ash told him from the beginning, a fire dragon that he resurrected using special means.

This matter was also agreed by Dumbledore.

Mainly because Ash ensured that this would definitely be an obedient and safe fire dragon.

All the big guys from Hogwarts gathered around.

This was also the first time they had seen someone actually resurrect a dead creature.

What a bullshit resurrection stone, it can’t even resurrect people.

Look at this God of Death, he is so inferior.

Lupine and Sirius, who had seen Ash's methods for the first time, were stunned on the spot.

Even Lupine, who had seen Ash's power, could not believe the scene before him, let alone Sirius, who had only met Ash a few times.

"What did you see, Remus?" Sirius asked innocently.

But he didn't hear Lupine's answer. Before he could turn his head, a sharp pain suddenly came from his hand.

Hey~

He slapped Lupine's mouth away from his right hand.

"Damn it, Headmaster Dumbledore, I need to take time off to get my rabies vaccination."

Lupine smacked his mouth instead.

Seeing that Sirius was in so much pain, it was probably not a dream.

Phew, so salty.

Snape and Dumbledore stroked the egg in silence.

Their eyes were a little moist.

Ash knew that their hearts were not as peaceful as they seemed on the surface.

Or it would be an understatement to say it was choppy.

Who can live without a few people who want to be resurrected?

"I'll say it first, Hagrid."

Although he knew that Hagrid would definitely take good care of the dragon, there were some things he had to pay attention to.

Hagrid took out his notes and quill with a serious look on his face.

Ash recognized it as the quill Harry usually used, and it seemed that Hagrid had borrowed it from him temporarily.

"This fire dragon is not a simple soul resurrection, but I refined its original corpse and mixed it with a trace of the power of the first fire to fuse its soul. Therefore, it is destined to be stronger than its kind when it is born, and it will grow The upper limit is also much higher. If nothing else happens, it will probably be the patron beast of Hogwarts for a long time in the future."

Ash doesn't need to explain how to raise a fire dragon. After all, Hagrid is an avid fire dragon lover and has simulated it in his heart countless times.

"Okay, that's it. I'll take my leave now. I have classes in the afternoon."

Ash said goodbye to the professors who were still studying dragon eggs, and turned to walk outside the Dragon Academy.

Behind him, Snape and Dumbledore looked at his back and remained silent for a long time.
