Although she didn't like Dumbledore, since the guests had made an appointment for a visit according to etiquette, Phyllis had to maintain the dignity of the Kate family and not lose her courtesy. So she told Amy to clean the living room and prepare a few pastries.

The next day, at 3:55 p.m., Phyllis and Amy waited outside the iron gate of Kate's estate.

In August, Cheshire is a pleasant climate, full of different shades of green, and the faint scent of golden osmanthus flowers diffuses with the breeze, which makes people's minds lazy.

After waiting for five minutes, at four o'clock, Phyllis noticed a brief spatial distortion not far away, and then an old wizard with white hair and beard appeared out of thin air.

Apparition shifting, a profound spatial magic, not many people in the entire British wizarding world can perform it.

(To explain here, this story is only based on some background settings in the Harry Potter series of books, and it is not a complete fan, specifically: the main settings of the original series of books remain the same, and some details will be revised according to the needs of the story development.) For example, phantom shifting, although it is a "dangerous" magic in the original series of books, can be learned by students over the age of seventeen, and it is generally relatively common. In this story, this space-related magic is a truly advanced magic that only a few people can successfully perform. ）

Phyllis muttered in her heart, greeted her, and with a polite smile on her face, said, "Professor Dumbledore, welcome to Kate's Manor." ”

Albus Percival Woolfrick Brian Dumbledore, known as the greatest wizard of our time, is the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This time, the old man came to visit, wearing a floor-mopping purple magic robe embroidered with stars and moon motifs, silver hair and silver beard long enough to fit into his belt, and a half-moon shaped eye with a sparkle of wisdom.

Dumbledore smiled charitantly and said, "Hello, Miss Kate. ”

After a few pleasantries, Phyllis invited Dumbledore to the living room and instructed Amy to bring the prepared black tea and snacks.

I saw a white dress wearing white oxford cloth, although it was not a color, but it was indeed a dress.

"Forgive a wizard for being curious, even if he is old." Dumbledore glanced at Amy and said, "This house-elf is clothed?" ”

Hearing Dumbledore mention herself, Amy stood next to her with a tray and looked uneasy.

In order to avoid unnecessary attention and hostility, Amy would change into a pillowcase when she went out of the house – including accompanying Phyllis to Diagon Alley before - which had to be clean and tidy. Back at home, Amy puts on a dress designed by Phyllis herself.

Now inside Kate Manor, Amy habitually wears a white cotton dress. No way, Kate Manor hadn't received visitors in seven years, and Amy had forgotten how she should dress appropriately when outsiders appeared in the manor.

"I ...... Because ......" Amy stammered and wanted to explain, but didn't know what to say, did she put everything on the master? Although it was indeed Phyllis who asked her to dress like this.

"I don't think Amy looks good in a pillowcase." Phyllis said lightly, "By the way, Amy, don't change your pillowcase when you go out in the future, that thing is too ugly." I couldn't go out before, no way, but now that I can go out, no one dares to say anything about you. ”

"Yes......" Amy glanced at Dumbledore carefully, quickly bowed her head, and said, "Yes, master." ”

Dumbledore watched the conversation between Phyllis and Amy, and sketched out the character of the orphan in his mind.

Not caring about worldly eyes, being strong, and being egoistic is not a completely positive personality trait, but Dumbledore still sees Phyllis's brilliance: she cares a lot about the people around her, even if it's a house-elf.

These personalities are supposed to have been formed during seven years of isolation. During her character development, Phyllis had no contact with any outsiders, not even the owl that delivered the letter. This will bring two results, one is extremely inferior, and will care a lot about what others think of you; Obviously, Phyllis belongs to a different kind, extremely egoistic, and doesn't care about other people's eyes at all.

For seven years, Phyllis was the only one by her side, the house-elf. Because house-elves will absolutely obey their master's orders, Phyllis has never been rejected by anyone (in fact, Amy, a house-elf can communicate with her) during her personality development, causing her personality to become such a strong self.

Because of this experience, Phyllis sees Amy as her only companion, and cares more about her nature as a sapient creature than as a so-called house-elf. I believe that she will not have a stereotypical prejudice against xenologically intelligent creatures like most wizards. This was very much in line with Dumbledore's concept, and he had always believed in universal love for all beings.

All things considered, there should be no problem in hiring Phyllis to become a professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Dumbledore took out a folded piece of parchment, unfolded it, placed it on the table, and said, "Miss Kate, you applied for the position of professor of the history of magic at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry some time ago?" ”

Have it? A question mark popped up in Phyllis's head. She looked down at the parchment, and it was only then that she awakened a long memory—wasn't this the resume that Yechen filled out when she was in the seventh space? This is a resume attached to the job posting, and applicants need to fill it out and send it if they are interested. However, when he was in the seventh space, after Yechen finished filling it in, the parchment burned and dissipated into a puff of ashes, but now Dumbledore took it out.

As mentioned earlier, seven years of isolation led to the separation of a new personality in Yechen's soul, that is, Phyllis Kate. As an independent personality, although the memory is clear, it cannot empathize. For example, Yechen entered this mission world because she filled out the application resume, and this Phyllis knows it, but this so-called "knowing" is known by reading memory, not experiencing it herself. Similarly, the death of Phyllis's "parents" is just a text explanation for the owner Ge Chen, and it is impossible to empathize with it at all. Because of this, Phyllis almost forgot about this resume, and it was only after seeing the real thing that it evoked her memory.

"Ah...... Oh yes, yes. Phyllis quickly regained her composure and said, "I do hope to be successful in my job and teach at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." ”

"Okay." Dumbledore tapped his finger at the resume on the table and said, "Can I ask for some history?" ”
