The Charles Becomes a Wizard

"What's more important now is petrification." Charles tapped the table twice with his fingers.

In order to force Dumbledore to resign, Lucius and his team did prepare some other drama, but the petrification was not something they arranged.

Are there other forces lurking in the dark about Hogwarts?

I just don't know whether the other party wants to target Dumbledore or the savior...

But no matter who the other party's target is, they have to find out the mastermind before someone really dies, otherwise Hogwarts may really be closed.

Sebastian, who was an "outsider" who had smuggled into Hogwarts, could not show up in public due to his identity, so his ways of obtaining information were extremely limited. The result that finally appeared before Charles was of course very unsatisfactory.

"So this is all you found out?" Charles threw the results of his investigation on the table.

"Not even as much information as Zabini got from Hufflepuff." He made no effort to hide his disdain.

"Are you wasting all your energy on sparring with others?"

"Oh?" Sebastian touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Master, are you acting jealous now?"

"Huh?" Charles opened his eyes wide, "What nonsense are you talking about! How could I possibly eat that cheesy..."

"Master." Sebastian smiled and interrupted the address that he was about to blurt out. "Although Master Malfoy is here, if you want to act like a spoiled child to me now, you can do that."

"Being a spoiled child to you? You'd better dream faster!"

"Ah, aha, young master is still so shy." The devil dressed in black tilted his head and made a distressed look.

"Then let's wait until we're alone..."

Considering Draco in the room, Charles, whose face was flushed by the devil's teasing, could only glare at Sebastian fiercely.

"Shut up and talk about business." Charles almost squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

Draco, who pretended to be a lifeless ornament, said: ...

Actually, it’s okay, you can continue to ignore me.

I also want to see Ciel act like a spoiled child!!!

"Yes," Sebastian restrained his expression as he saw that his master was about to explode if he continued teasing him. "This month, there have been a total of five petrification incidents in Hogwarts. Except for Mrs. Norris who was raised by the administrator Mr. Filch, the rest were punk or half-blood little wizards."

"There were no witnesses at the scene, and no one heard any strange noises when the incident occurred."

"Isn't this just completely clueless?" Draco couldn't help but ask.

"Draco, I remember that Apparition is prohibited in Hogwarts, right?" Charles asked after thinking for a moment.

"Yes, even the Floo Network is prohibited."

"So, how did your house-elf named Dobby get into the castle?"

Hearing this name, Draco's face turned a little grim, but he still answered Ciel's question honestly: "I don't know the specific reason, but house-elves will not be affected when using Apparition in the castle."

"Ciel, you didn't think it was a house elf?"

"I don't know either," Charles shook his head and picked up the documents on the table again. After taking a casual look, he paused. "Has something similar happened in Hogwarts before?"

"Yes, it is said that a student died that year, and Hogwarts was almost closed because of this incident," Sebastian replied.

"It says that someone secretly raised eight-eyed spiders in the dormitory, and the student died because of the spider's venom. The culprit had his wand broken and was expelled from Hogwarts." Ciel's fingertips stroked the date on the paper. "This time..."

"It happens to be the time when Mr. Voldemort is in school." Sebastian added in tacit understanding.

"As a top student at Hogwarts and a prefect of Slytherin, he should know something."

......

"Are you asking about the incident back then?" Voldemort on the other side of the two-sided mirror raised his eyebrows and admitted very frankly: "I know. In a sense, it should be me who did it."

The truth appeared before Charles' eyes in a rather abrupt form.

"Should?" What kind of weird description is this?

"Ah," Voldemort leaned back on the sofa and propped up his chin with one hand, "I didn't intend to kill anyone at the beginning. It was actually an accident."

He didn't expect that he would be seen by the girl when he was communicating with the basilisk...

If it weren't for this accident, Dumbledore wouldn't have watched him so closely, and he wouldn't have set a trap for him with the Horcrux...

All the professors at Hogwarts liked him, so why couldn't Dumbledore learn from them? Wasn't an excellent prefect more important than that dirty and stupid half-giant?

Isn't it just pushing that troublemaker out as a scapegoat? Dumbledore's reaction is a bit too exaggerated!

Shouldn't it be stopped to secretly keep dangerous animals in the dormitory? It's for the good of those stupid lions to kick him out of Hogwarts!

As he thought about it, Voldemort's mood dropped, and the expression on his face became visibly irritated.

"So, this petrification is...?"

"It's a basilisk," Voldemort answered straightforwardly, "By the way, remember to have your butler deliver what I want as soon as possible."

After saying this, Voldemort's face disappeared into the two-way mirror.

"Bass monster?" Charles was a little confused.

"A legendary creature. A seven-year-old rooster lays an egg on a night when Sirius is in the sky. After being hatched by a toad, a basilisk will be born from the egg."

"Anyone who makes direct contact with the basilisk's gaze will be killed instantly, while anyone who makes indirect contact will be petrified."

"what?"

Rooster? Laying eggs?

Toad? Hatching eggs?

This combination sounds outrageous. Besides, as a legendary creature, don’t you think it’s a bit strange for you to call other creatures “legends”?

"That's exactly what is recorded in the wizarding world's documents."

Sebastian didn't think anything was wrong at all and continued reporting in a serious manner.

"So, have you seen the real one?" Charles asked curiously.
