Chapter 286: Hogwarts History of Magic (37)
Mirror of Eris......
Looking at the image in the mirror, Phyllis smiled a little awkwardly and said hello, "Good morning." ”
The image in the mirror is not actually Phyllis, but Chen, the main personality of this soul.
In the Mirror of Eris, the character at the top of the Mirror of Eris, "Erised" is reversed, and it becomes "Desire". The inscription, "Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi," is based on the principle of mirror imagery, which is reversed from side to side: "What I show is not your mirror image, but the desire of your heart." ”(It shows us nothing more or less than the deepest,most desperate desire of our hearts.)
To put it simply, in the Mirror of Eris, you can see the true desire of a person, or a soul. As an inconspicuous sub-personality of this soul, only formed because of this task, Phyllis has always behaved very deferentially in front of Chen, and as a result, in the Mirror of Eris, her true inner thoughts are revealed.
It's a bit embarrassing.
In the image in the magic mirror, the master Ge Chen looked down at his broken heart, his expression was still calm, and said, "It's normal, isn't it?" After all, we are all in the same body. ”
Whether it is the master Ge Chen, or the second personality Phyllis Kate, including those personalities formed by soul fragments, they are all conceived by this soul, they have the same essence and similar hearts.
It is normal for Phyllis to have this idea of wanting to "take her place", and Chen, as the main personality, will not be surprised at all. In other words, if she realizes that she is not actually the master of this soul, then the first thought that comes to her mind is definitely to find a way to "take its place".
Just when Phyllis was thinking about saying something and easing the current awkward atmosphere, Chen's image in the mirror changed, she seemed to be suffocated, she tried to breathe, but she just couldn't breathe, and then, her face turned pale and coughed violently.
But soon, Chen's expression in the mirror returned to "normal", and he said to Phyllis: "Look, this phenomenon is normal. ”
It's not just Phyllis Kate's sub-personality that is wild, but the personality formed by those few soul fragments is also restless.
After the inspection was over, back in the office, Phyllis ordered, "Amy, bring me a bottle of red wine." "She needs a drink now to calm her mind.
Soon, Amy walked in with a bottle of red wine without any label on it and a tall glass.
This bottle of wine was not purchased, but produced by Château Blood Rose, a small winery belonging to the Kate family.
The Blood Rose winery is not planted on a small area, producing an average of only 40,000 bottles of wine per year. The taste of blood rose wine is quite mellow, and the biggest feature is that its bright color is really like blood, and you can even taste a very light smell of blood, which is actually a very light iron smell.
Phyllis picked up the bottle, poured half a glass of wine, and took a small sip, which did smell a little blood.
Generally speaking, in the process of making red wine, the iron smell is a miscellaneous taste, but after the unique concoction of the Blood Rose Winery, the negative impact of this miscellaneous smell is greatly eliminated, and a special flavor is obtained after neutralization. If you get used to it, it feels pretty good.
"The red wine of Blood Rose Winery has a truly unique taste." Suddenly, a wizard's voice came from Phyllis's side.
Phyllis turned her head to look over, and a human face appeared in the flames of the fireplace, and when she saw her, she said hello, "Good morning, Miss Kate." ”
Phyllis put her glass down and said, "Good morning, Mr. Price, besides, I have to say, this way of meeting is a bit strange. ”
"It's really special for Muggles to have a human face made of flames in the fireplace, but we're wizards, aren't we?"
"Yes, we're wizards." The corners of Phyllis's mouth curled into a mocking smile.
Carl keenly noticed the slight change in Phyllis's expression and sighed slightly, but didn't say anything. He knew that Miss Kate was quite accomplished in the study of spells, especially rune magic, but in fact, because of her childhood experience, she had a special dislike for magic and the wizarding world. As a result, there is not a single magical portrait in her residence, and magic is rarely used in her daily life.
After collecting his feelings, Carl asked, "Is there something you asked me to meet?" ”
"I just finished an early morning patrol of Hogwarts Castle."
Carl in the fireplace frowned slightly and said, "Because of the troll incident some time ago? ”
The child of the Price family, Leah, also attends Hogwarts School, and he is also unhappy about such a serious security breach at Hogwarts, and even asked Headmaster Dumbledore on the school board for this. However, at the school board, it was the Slytherin gang who made the most trouble, especially Malfoy, who almost launched an accountability proposal to hold Dumbledore accountable.
Phyllis nodded.
"If it's because ......of the troll incident," Carl said, "it's normal, the school board has passed a resolution to put more thought into security." ”
Phyllis shook her head and said, "I don't think Headmaster Dumbledore is under pressure from the school board...... Or not just because of the pressure from the school board. In the troll incident, one of the students, Harry Potter, is the boy who never died, is injured and faces a threat to his life. ”
"What do you mean......"
"I need to fully assess how much impact that boy would have on the British wizarding world and Dumbledore if he died?"
Karl frowned and said, "Miss Kate, that's just a child. ”
"I know." "But he's also a focus, and it's not up to you and me to do it." From the moment Voldemort was under a spell at the Potter house eleven years ago, the child's life was destined to be unpeaceful...... Voldemort wouldn't let him go, and Dumbledore didn't let him go, it was his 'fate'. ”
PS: Again, there is no Harry Potter book series in Phyllis, or Yechen's world, so some things that are very common sense to readers, Phyllis does not know, such as the importance of Harry Potter to Dumbledore, she needs to evaluate and test before she can come to a conclusion.
