Chapter 49: Helping Others

"Then, Draco. Phoenix tossed him a replica cookie, and a flame erupted from Draco's mouth, a fiery dragon imitation cookie.

"Great, Bres, let's see yours. "Phoenix and the others are constantly trying to imitate all kinds of creatures, and the whole common room is no longer as peaceful as it used to be. The Slytherin students had enough reason to be noisy, and now Phoenix's influence on the house was almost at its peak.

"These boys. Melinda muttered that she was working on an astrology chart with the other girls, and school was about to start.

"I've noticed him lately, always approaching the lioness, you have to be careful. Daphne said casually to Melinda.

"That's nothing, she's been in a terrible state lately, she only learned some basic defense and counter-attack magic yesterday, and she's actually the last to master it, and someone needs to enlighten her. Melinda's expression did not change, but the pen in her hand no longer drew anything.

"Just a reminder that he's ambitious. After Daphne's astrology chart was completed, she packed up her things and prepared to go back to the dormitory to sleep, "Your family has decided to hang themselves on the tree of the Peverell family, if I were you, in order to live less hard in the future, I would go to the library often." ”

Melinda looked at her back, could she be so kind. People who grew up in this environment are the most sensitive and suspicious of kind reminders and gratuitous gifts. No, she must have some purpose, or rather some purpose for their family.

"Thank you so much for helping me write it. Phoenix unceremoniously took Melinda's astrology chart and kissed her on the cheek.

"Go, go to sleep, we're going to fight Hufflepuff soon. You're going to start training tomorrow, don't lose the first game. "Melinda didn't act out of the ordinary.

"Draco, I'm afraid you'll have to sleep in Goyle's dorm, I haven't finished cleaning up the gifts. "I received a lot of gifts this Christmas, and many parents of the students also sent a lot of gifts to thank him for his bravery.

Gifts were piled up almost half of the dormitory, from the table in the middle to the other wall, and there were absolutely no utensils such as the bed and wardrobe that belonged to Draco. Phoenix casually placed the astrology chart on the bed and entered the luxurious lavatory. Inside, a luxurious chandelier lit with candles casts a warm soft light into the room, and everything is made of snow-white marble, including the one in the middle, which sinks into the ground, which resembles a rectangular swimming pool. There are about a hundred golden faucets on the edge of the bath, each with a gemstone of a different color on the handle. There is also a diving board. Snow-white linen curtains hung from the windows, and a large pile of fluffy white towels lay in a corner, on which hung only a large mirror, set in a gilded frame. There is a small door next to the mirror, and inside is the washroom.

This is most likely the work of his mother, Phoenix's parents actually relied on potions to keep their young appearance, and when they gave birth to Phoenix, Sif was already considered an advanced maternal age, so they doted on him very much. Balde was very hesitant, on the one hand, he wanted his son to grow up safely and healthily, and on the other hand, for the sake of his son's future, he had to be strict with him.

Phoenix unscrewed several faucets, which spewed out a variety of bubble baths mixed with hot water, one of which spewed pink and blue bubbles the size of a football ball, another spewed crystalline, dense and thick bubbles, and the third spewed a fragrant purple mist that filled the water. In the blink of an eye, the deep bath was filled with hot water, foam, and bubbles, and such a large bath was full so quickly.

Phoenix turned off all the faucets, took off his clothes and shoes, and got into the water, wearing a rough black gemstone gold ring on his hand.

Swimming in hot, foamy water surrounded by clouds of colorful mist was wonderful, and Phoenix stared in the mirror as if waiting for someone to arrive.

After a while, the mirror fluctuated like water, and a human face with blurred facial features emerged.

"What's the matter?" the voice of the human face is very neutral, and it is difficult to distinguish the gender.

"I'm going to summon a soul back to the world of the living, probably in a few years. This is the killing of her soul. Phoenix stretched out his arm with the ring, his face open. Phoenix faintly heard a faint, distant scream of pain, and from the ring on his finger, a dull gray mist left the black gem and flew into the mouth of the human face.

"It's a broken piece of soul. ”

"I'm just helping people, you know. Phoenix looked at the black gem.

"You know, if you run around like this, if you die, you're going to be in big trouble. The face continued.

"I know, but for now I'm happy with my state of existence on this planet, but thank you for the reminder. Submerging his arm in the water, Phoenix closed his eyes and began to enjoy the bath.

"What kind of resurrection ritual are you going to use?"

"The lowest - if you don't mind, I want to ask when you're going to die?"

"I can't predict the death of others, and I can't predict myself. My job is only to manage the soul—" The man's voice remained calm.

"It's such a boring job, in front of a group of souls all day. I knew I would rather die back then. Phoenix swam over, resting his arms on the edge of the pool, letting the foam lift himself up and lie on the water.

"It's late. You've taken up the role. ”

"Yes, yes, I'm going to- sleep, goodbye. Phoenix yawned and left the pool.

"Don't die, this planet's own rejection of Void energy. The face turned to look at Phoenix.

"It's not the first time I've been out of the house. "The human face gradually disappeared, the ripples of the mirror became smaller and smaller, and finally it became an ordinary mirror again.

The next day, classes began. Spending two hours on the playground on a cold January morning was the last thing anyone wanted to do, but Hagrid lit a fire full of fire monsters for everyone's amusement, and the students had an unusually good lesson, collecting dead leaves to keep the fire going, and flame-loving lizards jumping around on the burned, self-heating wood. The first divination class of the new semester was much worse than that: Professor Trelawney was teaching them palmistry now, no different from the previous term, and the words were so strange that people couldn't figure out what she meant for a long time.

Hermione had been having a bad time lately, and Harry had been given an unsigned firebolt, which she thought might have been sent by Sirius, and told Professor McGonagall. Now Harry and Ron are mad at her.

"I know, you're kind. They'll understand—" Phoenix comforted Hermione in the library, helping her gather historical trial records about Hippogriffs.

"Can't you really tell Malfoy?" Hermione, tired, her hands around his neck and her head resting on Phoenix's shoulder.

"No, it's different from the dragon egg, he paid the price in order to achieve his goal. I can't let him take a beating as a friend. "Phoenix turned the page, and there was a case in 1766.

In this way, Phoenix helps her find information and cope with the trial of Buckbeak, while constantly making her happy.

"Okay, that's all for today. Phoenix stuffed the materials into Hermione's bag, and he cast a stretching charm on the bag.

"Good night. Hermione seemed to be in a much better mood after the two kissed goodbye. Phoenix's trouble is coming.
