Primordial Warlock of Hogwarts

Sighing and shaking his head, DeWitt stopped looking. 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 those who are keen enough can sense the existence of the magic text and convert the abstract shapes in their minds into words on the paper.

Another invisible figure in the abandoned classroom accompanies DeWitt until his "work" is over - and hasn't shown up yet?DeWitt found it strange that this place wouldn't be coming any time soon, if the invisible man had no other plans...

Thinking like this, the outline of a tall and thin figure suddenly emerged from the air. Then the outline gradually became clearer and became more colorful, and the person completely appeared.When DeWitt saw it was Dumbledore, he was actually not surprised.

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

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

"They went to bed," DeWitt said. "They didn't come back 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", but Dumbledore was the principal. He took a roundabout way and said, "The beautiful and harmonious life I long for has... In the company of 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 acquiesce in 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, and this has nothing to do with identity. Advice: No matter what you plan to make next, don’t blur the line 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. Individuals 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 advice from an elder," 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 headmaster 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 the 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 guessed 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 the Invisibility Cloak was given to Harry by Dumbledore - according to Harry Harry's description, it was his Christmas gift, and the paper given with the invisibility cloak said that it was something left by Harry's father.

"I heard from my parents," the twins knew 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. No matter how he looked at Harry - except for the lightning scar on his forehead - he felt that he was no different from other little wizards: "How did you do it at such a young age... ...Kill Voldemort instead?"

"Shhhhhhhhhhh" Ron jumped up in shock, and the twins' eyes widened: "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. He felt fearful, but he quickly figured out the reason with his magical thinking: "Did he cast magic on his name? He can sense it as long as someone speaks it? But the magic world has confirmed that he is dead, right? Already There’s nothing to be afraid of—are you even afraid of dead people?”

"Just Peeves can make Hogwarts very upset," the twins said. "We sometimes thought about what would happen if the mysterious man also turned into a ghost and came to Hogwarts Castle. Maybe he would Will reach a united front with Peeves..."

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

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