"So you're here again, Harry?"

Harry felt his internal organs freeze to ice. He looked behind him, and Brandi was standing beside the man in horror, his wand was gently pressed down by him, and it looked as if Brandi was about to pull out his wand for defense, but he was quickly subdued - it was Dumbledore.

Why did the principal come here at this time?! Harry's heart was pounding.

"I—I didn't see you, sir."

Equally nervous was Brandi, who was next to Dumbledore, who was about to recite a spell with his wand in his hand, and he was nervously suspicious, afraid that Dumbledore would think he was about to attack Harry. But—

"Ha, it seems that I need to come here this time, if I move a little slower, Mr. Barton, who cares about his friends, will probably be ruthless to Eris." Dumbledore spoke briskly, as if it were a pleasant chance encounter on a night walk. "Should I be happy or sad, this is really complicated......"

"Sir? You just said? Harry's surprised gaze turned to Brandi, who seemed ashamed to drop his wand. Brandi he ......"

From a friend's point of view, his idea was actually very decisive. You can't blame him, Harry. Dumbledore let go of Brandi's wand and smiled at Brandi, then pulled him and sat on the floor with Harry. You've already discovered the joy of the Mirror of Eris, just like the thousands of people before you. ”

"Yes...... It — it allows me to see my family. ”

"And let your friend Ron see himself as the president of the boys' student council?"

"That's right, sir—huh? How do you know? ”

When Brandi heard this, he subconsciously covered his mouth when he was about to scream. Dumbledore was already here last night waiting for Harry and Ron? But why would he ...... Brandi's mind went back and forth in a thousand ways.

"I don't have to rely on the Cloak of Invisibility to become invisible...... Dumbledore gave Brandy an appreciative look, "Have you ever wondered why you and Weasley are seeing these desirable images?" ”

Harry lowered his head and spoke slowly. "This mirror allows us to see what we want most, no matter what ......"

"Almost, Harry—" Dumbledore said softly. "It only shows your innermost desperate desires, it can't teach you knowledge, it can't tell you the truth. People are obsessed with it, spend their days in vain, and eventually go crazy from exhaustion...... That's why, your friend is just going to attack the mirror against your will. Harry...... I hope you can forgive him. ”

Harry looked at Brandi and saw that he was blushing at Dumbledore's compliment, and he remembered Ron, who had been nagging him to stay away from the mirror all day. He turned his head to look at his parents in the mirror, who seemed to understand Harry's thoughts and were smiling goodbye to Harry.

Harry was right, Harry thought. He stood up and stretched out his hand to Brandi, who was still embarrassed, and looked at Brandi, who was stunned and stood up, Harry smiled happily.

Mom and Dad, I'm right, your son has indeed made a very sincere friend!

"Okay, okay~ This mirror will be moved to a new place tomorrow, and you won't want to look for it again in the future. But when you happen to see it one day, be prepared. It is useless to indulge in illusion and forget reality. Dumbledore slapped his face and stood up, and Brandi always felt that this was a deliberate reminder of something.

Before leaving, Harry curiously asked Dumbledore what he could see in the mirror, but when he received a strange answer like a 'wool stocking', it seemed to remind Dumbledore of something.

"By the way, Brandy," Dumbledore smiled and pulled Brandi's arm, "this is a rare opportunity, you really don't plan to stand in front of the mirror and see, what is your deepest desire?" ”

Brandi subconsciously shuddered, he was indeed quite curious, but he didn't want to look in this mirror in front of Harry and Dumbledore at all, especially since Professor Dumbledore also had an imperceptible mastery of mind reading. Although he had said that his mind seemed to be protected by something, the wary Brandi didn't even believe in punctuation.

"Well, I can't think of it...... If I had the chance next time, I think I'd try it then. ”

"Well, that's a pity." Dumbledore raised an eyebrow, and Brandi's answer seemed to be in anticipation, and he stroked his beard. "Okay, so why don't you put on that cloak of invisibility and go back to sleep? The night is still long...... Have a good dream~"

"You say, Dumbledore's wish is really for woollen socks?" On the way back, Harry asked Brandi suspiciously. "If we give him a pair, will we be able to treat Gryffindor a little more favorably? Also, why didn't you just try it? That mirror is going to be gone! ”

Brandi frowned, thinking back to Dumbledore's strange behavior, what had been said to them, and the unfathomable expression on his face......

"We'll get a chance to see it—I swear."

He said lightly.

————

Harry was probably moved by Dumbledore's words, and he stopped running out of the common room at night to look for the Mirror of Eris. But it probably wouldn't be easy for him to forget what was in the mirror. He began to have nightmares, dreaming over and over again that his parents had disappeared in a green light, and a voice laughed beside him.

He told Brandi and Ron about his dreams, and the only thing they could do was to try to distract Harry with all sorts of activities, so that he didn't have time to recall his dreams. For this reason, Brandi even gave up the Nick Lemay search plan that he had been thinking about for a long time. Force yourself to go to the Quidditch pitch with Ron Harry to practice throwing and catching the ball......

This is not easy, Brandy's talent for flying is probably the same as Neville's talent for potions, compared to Harry Ron's skillful flying skills, he is at best a level of shouting at a low altitude of no more than two meters with a broom tightly clamped, he does not have a fear of heights, but he finds it difficult for him to control the direction of the broomstick. And even after being sprayed by Mrs. Hooch in flight lessons for a few months, he still hasn't made any progress. Mrs. Hodge even began to suspect that she might have brought a fake student with her.

The day before school started, Hermione finally appeared in front of them with a large bag in tow, and she had mixed feelings about the Mirror of Eris. Curious about the magical mirror, and thinking the same thing as Brandi Ron, she wondered if it would have any negative effect on people. But compared to this......

"So, your vacation is so inexplicably wasted, wizards playing chess and broomsticks! That's it? Well? She lectured at Harry and Ron, "Have you ever gone to the library to look it up?" ”

As she said this, her eyes glanced at Brandi inadvertently. Brandy, who still wanted to boast about himself, immediately did not dare to speak.

At the start of the semester, life seemed to be back to normal, and they continued to spend ten minutes between classes browsing the collection, as Harry insisted that he had seen the name from. Hermione felt that the only possibility that Harry would be able to get his hands on the name was in the library, as he had no habit of reading idle books in his dorm room.

But it was only ten minutes later, and after a few days, Harry had to be absent as Quidditch training began again. Since beating Slytherin last time, the 170-point difference and 110-point difference have put Gryffindor in second place, and if they beat Hufflepuff with a slightly higher score this time, they could even have a chance to beat Slytherin in the House Cup. This made everyone's hearts burn with a raging fire, and even in the continuous rainy days after the heavy snowfall, their training momentum did not diminish in the slightest.

Even Hermione wouldn't say much on this kind of matter of collective honor, so she very readily took the part of the list of books that Harry wanted to check, and then mercilessly distributed it to Brandy, who looked confused. This frightened Brandi, who would be the last to come out of the library with Parvati almost every day in order to complete his mission.

That's right...... This is the stupid Parvati, not the school bully Hermione.

In fact, after Christmas, the biggest change in Gryffindor is probably Parvati. The first is that she has changed to a more lively and fresh hairstyle, which makes her look even more cute. According to the Weasley brothers, it seems that even many third-year seniors are secretly asking the girls to give Parvati snacks or other small gifts. What is Lori said to have three good? Do you want to cultivate friendship or something from an early age?

But if the first change isn't quite surprising, the second one doesn't fit Parvati's premise. Because everyone was surprised to find out recently, except for the usual desertion in class recently, almost all of her free time is soaked in the library to read books?

What a joke! When did Parvati suddenly have such an attribute as a bookworm? And if you want to study hard, wouldn't it be nice to listen to the lectures honestly and carefully, but are there any interesting reading materials hidden in the library, such as novels or something?

Even Ron, who hated libraries the most, was starting to get a little curious, but when he snuck into the title of a book she was reading with Pavati, he lost interest. Because of his uninteresting discovery, Parvati was reading really boring magic books.

And according to the intelligence, she seems to be reading a lot of books? Her list includes "Exploring the Nature of Magic", which may not be used by adult wizards, and even "The Magical Terminology Passed Down for a Millennium" and "The Splendor of Medieval Magic", which can only be learned by old men who cling to their incompleteness and are obsessed with restoring the glory of ancient magic.

It seemed as if she had suddenly turned up and wanted to read through the ancient book she had taken out of Ravenclaw.

Merlin, times are different! The magic contained in the current wizard is hard to say whether it is one-tenth of that of the average wizard in ancient times. Ancient magic is basically something that is destined to be obsolete by the times! You count on your fingers, and now there are only a few people in the wizarding world who have the knowledge and strength to delve into ancient magic.

Even Hermione, who is usually a bookish person, would not touch such a thing, because she is pragmatic and wants her time to be used on the edge of the knife rather than those flashy things. However, considering that Parvati, who has always been careless about everything, was rare and serious for a while this time, everyone still tacitly agreed and did not say anything to dissuade them.
