Till curled her lips. Although it was a bit strange to greet a giant squid, she could accept it. She just sat there squatting like this, continuing to chat with the man, the fish, and the squid.

"Seriously, Till, do you want to go to the bottom of the lake to play? We can show you the way." Merkus had already swam to the shore, his hands on the rocks, and he was very close to Till.

Pierce also patted the water surface with his tentacles, agreeing with Mercus' proposal.

"This..." Tier hesitated. After the torture of the special training mission, she could explore any dirty place without changing her expression, but only if there was a need to explore the place.

Thiel was curious about what the bottom of this big lake looked like, but when he thought about how dirty the water in it would be... Thiel still followed his instinct and refused: "Sorry, I don't think I really want to go into the water in winter. "

"It doesn't matter. When you want to play in the future, you can always play." Mercus was not angry even after being rejected. He suddenly thought of something and waved towards Till with his two webbed palms. "Wait for me. I have something for you."

The impatient mermaid submerged into the water in an instant. Till waited quietly, but heard something moving behind her. She subconsciously turned her head and saw Professor Dumbledore in purple robes.

Till blinked, stood up and said hello to him: "Hello, Professor."

"It seems that you have also made friends with Merkus." Professor Dumbledore walked to Till. His smile was not strange at all, and he did not ask Till why he knew mermaid language, and Till was also here. Then he realized who the other person who could communicate with Merkus was.

Tier tugged at his robe in embarrassment and said nothing.

Professor Dumbledore's eyes fell softly on Till's face, and his tone was as loving as ever: "You know? Till, I didn't expect that I would meet you here. During these days, except for meal time, I rarely see you here. See you in the castle."

"Recently, I have been studying in the dormitory." Teal did not look at Professor Dumbledore. She knew that Professor Dumbledore was extremely good at Legilimency spells. There was a system to help block it before, but now the system is being upgraded. She didn't dare take risks.

It would be bad if the existence of the system is exposed.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, kid, you're still young." Professor Dumbledore didn't seem to notice Till's dodge. Necessary, everything is not yet desperate.”

After a pause, Professor Dumbledore spoke again in a tone that made Tire's nose sour: "You are still a child. You don't have to shoulder those responsibilities. You have lost a lot of weight."

"I didn't." Till retorted stubbornly, "I just want to learn."

She didn't put the responsibility on her shoulders, she just, she just... Tier finally wiped away tears.

She admitted that she took all the responsibility for the future on herself. If she was strong enough, the predicted future would be just a nightmare when she was in a coma and would never happen.

"Professor, if I hadn't predicted those bad things, wouldn't it be..." I wouldn't be as tired as I am now. Neither she, nor Professor Dumbledore, nor even Professor Snape would be worried early on.

Professor Dumbledore patted Teal's arm comfortingly. As a principal for so many years, he has always been experienced in comforting children: "Don't say that, you did nothing wrong."

"Do you know why prophets are so rare?" Professor Dumbledore leaned down and said that he was about the same height as Till. "Because they are favored. They have the ability to predict the future and change the future."

Professor Dumbledore's tone lowered: "And the one who is favored is always the minority."

"Tiel, don't be sad, and don't worry."

"What we have to do is not to be afraid of the future that has never happened, but to grasp the power to change the future and create the future."

Professor Dumbledore's figure gradually faded away. Till seemed to understand his words. At this moment, the sound of water came from the lake next to him: "What were you talking about just now? I didn't say a word Dumbledore said." Understand.”

Merkus had returned a long time ago, but because Professor Dumbledore and Teal were talking, she stayed under the water and did not come out to disturb them.

Till's words will automatically be converted into the language familiar to the animals, but Professor Dumbledore did not speak in mermaid language, so Merkus could only hear a few words Till said after waiting underwater for so long. talk.

Looking at Tier's red eyes, Mercus quickly handed her the things he was holding in both hands: "Don't cry, don't cry, look what good things I have brought for you. I have been collecting these for three months." It’s done, and it suits you very well.”

Tier sniffed, looked at the gem tower that was handed to him, and couldn't help but laugh. This gem tower is completely made up of various kinds of gems stacked together. The colors are not dazzling, but they are also very beautiful.

Till sat back on the stone by the lake and looked at Mercus with his beautiful silver-white eyes: "You are really willing to give it to me?"

Merkus patted the water proudly, and the splashing water rose to the ice not far away, making a slight "tick" sound: "What's the point of not letting go? We are friends now. We mermaids never treat friends like each other." Generous."

"Thank you. When I come to see you next time, I will also bring you a gift." Till carefully put the gem tower into his pocket. Seeing Mercus laughing, he suddenly wanted to ask a question, " Is your mermaid singing really as good as what is recorded in the book?"

"Of course!" Merkus patted his chest, obviously agreeing with this record, "The singing of our mermaids has always been the best tool for trapping prey, but it requires many mermaids to sing together to be effective."

Mercus added: "If I were the only one singing, it would sound nice, but it wouldn't have the effect of trapping prey."

"I really want to hear it." Till revealed a hint of longing. When she was in the Muggle world, she had heard the beautiful and mysterious Siren legend. Although the Merkus she saw now could not be called beautiful, his singing voice was She was still looking forward to it.

Mercus thought for a moment and asked Till to come to the lake again tonight. She asked the mermaids in the community to sing to her.

"Isn't this good? It's too much trouble for you." Although Tiel wanted to hear it, he didn't want to deliberately trouble Mercus and the others. Besides, if a whole community of mermaids sang to her, wouldn't it attract other people?

Merkus really wanted to ask Till to listen to their mermaid's singing voice, but he really had to pay attention to the "nuisance" issue. Merkus had to regretfully say that he would show her singing voice next time he had the opportunity.

Till breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw that lunch time was coming, he waved goodbye to Merkus who was reluctant to leave, and trotted towards the castle.

In fact, there is another way to make her hear the mermaid's song, that is, Till goes to the bottom of the lake, and the mermaid's song can also spread in the water. But dirty water and cold water are one thing, and whether they are dangerous or not is another matter entirely.

Till and Mercus have become friends, and they believe in the affinity they wear, but what if something goes wrong? She had no way to ensure her own safety underwater.

Mermaids use their songs to lure prey, including humans.

It's always better to be careful.
