"What question do you ask the professor?" Phoenix asked curiously. Roger specially left a mysterious and asked a few questions, looking at his expression should not have received a satisfactory answer.
"Oh, nothing. I have an idea -- a couple of questions. Rogge's eyes were evasive, and he hesitated to speak.
"Doesn't sound good. β
"No, I think it's a good thing, a good deed. Rogge said this, his expression excited.
"Okay, can you elaborate on that?"
Walking in front of the sculpture, he was coerced and lured by Phoenix, and he relented.
"Okay, I said it, I don't think I'm perverted. Rogge said solemnly.
"Okay. Phoenix waved his hand impatiently.
"You see, cross-species transfiguration has been happening for a long time - one of Dumbledore's academic achievements - and I've been wondering why we can't turn cats or foxes into people, people are living things, and they are living things. According to Professor Dumbledore's paper, it should be fine. But the reality is that no, I think that paper is flawed. β
Hearing this, Phoenix didn't think it was a big deal, as magic progressed, it was inevitable that the magic of the past would be eliminated and improved.
"If I could add something to it - implement - you understand?" Rogge's words retracted.
"I don't understand, you can turn a cat into a human - what's the use, it doesn't have human intelligence, it's still a cat at heart, but with a human appearance. β
"What if you deliberately don't turn it into a human at all?" Rogge whispered, "and she owns a piece of it." β
Phoenix had in mind Hermione, who had taken the Polyjuice decoction by mistake when she was in her second grade. It's fun, but that's about it. Inventing a humanoid pet?
"Furry, with tails and ears, do you mean that, some kind of humanoid pet?"
"Yes. β
"But what can be considered a good deed, you drank too much. It's not a perversion, it's hard for people to accept, there's no prospect. Maybe the next century -- I mean, maybe the next century -- "Phoenix was a little disappointed, and Rogge really didn't have any ambitions.
"You'll understand, when I do it. Rogge was also a little lost, and his expression was fleeting, and Phoenix didn't notice. He confidently walked into the common room.
Overall, the dinner that day was quite enjoyable, at least many people felt good. Slughorn said that he had time to introduce them to his former students, who were all accomplished and high-status figures from all areas of the wizarding world.
The news quickly spread among the students. No one has ever said that, but no one would refuse Professor Slughorn's invitation, which often means ten years less struggle.
But none of these can compare to the biography of the owls that came overwhelmingly on Monday and threw them down. For a long time afterward, many people at Hogwarts read the biography, and Phoenix heard the students talking in line outside the classroom, talking at lunch, and in the back of the classroom during class.
He wasn't very interested in that book, but the history of magic lesson, which was used to kill the boredom, was undoubtedly very helpful.
"You bought the book too, and now everybody is reading it, and I've heard that it's just subversive. Philip whispered as he took notes.
"Not mineβI'm interested in Dumbledore's relationship with Grindelwald. Phoenix said casually. The title on the page is "The Greater Good." He went on reading:
Towards his eighteenth birthday, Dumbledore left Hogwarts with a dazzling aura, the President of the Boys' Council, the Prefect, the Barnabus Finkley Award for Outstanding Spellcasting Techniques, the British Youth Representative of the Wizengamot, and the Gold Medal for Pioneering Contributions to the Cairo International Alchemy Congress. Next, Dumbledore plans to travel around Europe with Epheas Dorjee, the unintelligent but loyal old friend he met at school.
Two young men live in a leaky cauldron in London and are preparing to leave for Greece the next day, when an owl brings the news of Dumbledore's mother's death.
Of course, Dumbledore immediately returned to Godric's Hollow, supposedly to "take care" of his younger siblings, but how much care did he give them?
"That's enough, that Aberforth," said Anne Smick, whose family lived at the edge of Godric's Hollow at the time, "like a wild child." Of course, my parents are gone, which is strange and pitiful, but he always throws sheep on my head. I didn't think Albus was bothering about him, and I'd never seen them together anyway. β
So, if not to comfort his naughty brother, what is Albus doing? The answer seems to be: to ensure that his sister is kept imprisoned. Because, after the death of the first caretaker, Ariana Dumbledore's poor situation did not change. Her existence is still known only to a few outsiders, who, like "dog" Dorjee, are able to believe his claim that he is "not in good health".
Another such easy friend to satisfy was Bathilda Basshat, a renowned expert on the history of magic who lived in Godric's Hollow for many years. Of course, when she first came to welcome the family, she was turned away by Candela. A few years later, however, the writer sent an owl to Albus at Hogwarts, expressing his appreciation for his paper on transfiguration for today's Transfiguration. This initial contact developed into a friendship with Dumbledore's family. Before Candela's death, Bathilda was the only person in Godric's Valley who could speak to Dumbledore's mother.
Like the entire wizarding world, Bathilda chalked Candela's untimely death to the "Temper Charm," a story that Albus and Aberforth had bitten over the years. Bathilda also repeated the family's statement about Ariana, calling her "frail and sickly." But on one point, Bathilda was more than worthy of the elixir I had worked so hard to produce, because she knew that Albus Dumbledore's life was in question for the most unknown things: his abhorrence of the Dark Arts, his opposition to Muggle oppression, and even his love for his family.
The same summer that Dumbledore returned to Godric's Hollow as an orphan and head of the family, Bathilda Bassat agreed to host her nephew, Gellert Grindelwald, at home.
Grindelwald attended Durmstrang, and like Dumbledore, he showed a precocious talent. Gellert Grindelwald did not direct his talents to winning prizes, but devoted himself to other pursuits. When Grindelwald was sixteen years old, even Durmstrang felt that he could no longer turn a blind eye to his evil experiments, and he was expelled from school.
So far, the description of Grindelwald's next experience has been "a few months of traveling abroad." "It can now be seen that Grindelwald chose to go to his aunt's house in Godric's Hollow, and made a close friend there, and many people may be surprised to hear that this close friend is none other than Albus Dumbledore.
