Chapter 13 This phoenix is so beautiful

Most of Dumbledore's reactions to these three requests were beyond Elena's expectations.

This is the benefit of being familiar with the character of the plot character, unless the Dumbledore in front of him is a fake who has drunk the polyjuice potion, according to Elena's understanding of Dumbledore, most of the needs she put forward actually happen to be in line with the philosophy that Dumbledore has always pursued.

In fact, Dumbledore was arguably the most enlightened Headmaster Hogwarts had ever seen. If Professor McGonagall were standing here, the atmosphere would never be as relaxed as it is now.

"Then go on, Miss Kaslana. ”

Just as Elena began to contemplate a wonderful magical school career ahead, Dumbledore suddenly smiled.

"I also have a small request here, and I need to communicate with you a little. ”

"Huh?!"

The silver-haired half-breed little girl blinked, and a premonition suddenly rose in her heart, as if she was the same atmosphere as when she was caught by Benitez every time she got into trouble when she was a child.

"That...... May I add one more request, and that is "Professor Dumbledore, you may not make a request for me?"

Elena raised her hand weakly, rolled her eyes, took Dumbledore's hand and waved it from side to side, and said cutely.

I don't know what Dumbledore will say, but it's always right to object in advance.

"It seems that a lot of owls from Hogwarts have gone missing this year, has Miss Caslana heard about this?"

After Dumbledore admired Elena's cuteness with great interest, the corners of his mouth curved, and his eyes looked down at the silver-haired little Lori along the bridge of his somewhat distorted nose, and asked softly.

"Ha, hahaha. How would I know. Maybe they're suffering from heat stroke or getting lost...... Well, Professor Dumbledore, you say, what are the requirements?"

Elena's sweet smile froze suddenly, and she let out a few dry laughs in embarrassment, and under the pressure of Dumbledore's silent gaze, she obediently sat back down in the leather sofa chair in front of the piano.

"It's not that serious, it's really just a simple point. Looking at the childish Elena, Dumbledore shook his head slightly, and said.

"I want you to pledge that you will never cast an unforgivable spell on anyone, never let greed, hatred, and ambition blind your pure soul, and never turn your back on Hogwarts and the wizarding world. ”

β€œ...... Huh?"

The silver-haired little Lori subconsciously looked left and right, if she was so serious, was she really said to such a harmless cutie, how did it sound like she was saying to some big devil reserve.

"But, Professor Dumbledore, you said more than that. Elena smirked, trying to divert the subject.

"Promise me. ”

Dumbledore repeated unmoved, a pair of sharp, bright azure eyes firmly locked on Elena's face.

I have to admit that as the greatest white wizard of our time, Dumbledore is indeed extraordinarily imposing when he speaks seriously, at least it is no problem to bluff a little Lori who is strong on the outside and cowards on the inside.

"Hmm, well, okay. I promise. ”

After a few seconds of staring at the old man, Elena looked away a little uncomfortably, kicked the leg of the chair with her heel in anger, and agreed with a snort, even if Dumbledore didn't mention it, she had no interest in becoming a third-generation Dark Lord.

Hearing Elena's answer, Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction, lifted the half-moon glasses on the bridge of his nose, and was about to say something.

Bang!

The door to the abandoned classroom was slammed open, and a giant more than three meters tall stooped down and squeezed through the door with great difficulty, his face almost completely obscured by his long unkempt hair and tangled bushy beard, but you could still see his black beetle-like eyes glinting beneath the hair.

"Professor Dumbledore, I've found you. Tomorrow is little Harry's birthday, and we have to pick up ......."

The giant said anxiously, his voice sounding like thunder, and just halfway through speaking, his eyes swept to Elena, who poked her head out from behind Dumbledore, and couldn't help but stop talking.

"Sorry, Professor, I didn't know you had guests. I'll wait for you outside the door. ”

As he spoke, the giant scratched his face in embarrassment, stamped his feet and prepared to walk out.

"It's all right, Hagrid, it just so happens that Miss Kaslana and I are already talking about it. ”

Dumbledore shook his head, signaling that Hagrid didn't have to leave, turned to look at Elena, and said with a slight apology.

"I'm sorry, but I have something to discuss with this Mr. Hagrid first. If you don't mind, Elena, you can go to my office and wait a little longer - just go up the stairs next to the huge stone statue. You can enjoy snacks, biscuits, snacks and drinks in the room. ”

"All the food in the room can be eaten?" Elena's eyes lit up.

Dumbledore thought about it carefully, making sure that there were no dangerous magical items in the Headmaster's office, and replied mildly, "Of course. ”

"Well, then you talk, I'll go first. ”

The silver-haired little Lori looked up and looked at Hagrid, the giant who suddenly appeared in an abandoned classroom, and recalled the description of Hagrid in the original book, which is probably one of the few people most known to most Harry Potter fans.

Compared with the image of the actor in the previous movie, Hagrid in front of him seems to be taller, but Elena, who knows the kindness of the giant's heart, is not afraid at all, but when passing by, she boldly stretches out her finger and secretly pokes Hagrid's hanging forearm - the feeling of being as hard as a rock makes her almost think that she has poked her finger into a piece of granite.

"Professor, who is this kid?"

Hagrid asked, confused, as he turned to look at Elena as she bounced out of the classroom.

It was the first time he had encountered such a bold child who was not only not afraid of him, but even dared to stretch out his finger and poke his forearm.

"Elena Kaslana, a very special freshman. Dumbledore also saw Elena's little gesture and shrugged helplessly.

After a pause, Dumbledore looked around, waved his wand to close the door again, looked at Hagrid with a serious expression and said, "Let's not discuss her now, not just to pick up Harry, I also need you to help me go to Gringotts to get ......"

And at the same time, the other side.

Elena walked through the spiral staircase guarded by the great stone monsters, walked to a faintly lit oak door in front of it, with a brass half-eagle, half-lion clasp, and gently pushed the door open and entered.

The walls of the room were plastered with portraits of the former Headmaster, both men and women, all with elegant expressions, but perhaps because of Dumbledore's absence, the people in the portraits were either absent or quietly closed their eyes.

As Dumbledore had said, there was a huge wooden table in the middle of the room with a lot of food, including cookies, sweets, cakes, and so on.

Just as Elena was about to step forward to taste the [Principal's Special Snack], a strange voice suddenly came from behind her, as if someone was singing.

Elena turned around, and saw a large, rich, bright red bird standing on the bird's shelf behind the door, similar in size to a swan, with a long golden tail, and a long beak and claws, and a golden oneβ€”Dumbledore's pet, Phoenix Fawkes.

Also known as the immortal bird, the phoenix is a magical, immortal bird. The Latin poet Ovid said in the poem: "...... However, there is one animal that is eternal and unchanging, regenerating immortal copies over the years. This is what the Assyrians call the phoenix......"

It is a magical creature that is difficult to really die, and when its body begins to fail, it will take the initiative to enter the flames and be reborn. Theoretically, no matter how much damage the body has suffered before, what kind of attack it has received, or even what part it is missing, it will magically recover after being reborn.

Judging from the original book, Phoenix Fawkes is undoubtedly one of the most ideal pets for wizards: tears can heal, can detoxify, can bear the weight of several people to fly, its singing has magical powers, and it can also send messages for sentry, send letters, and in Hogwarts, where apparition is not possible, Dumbledore can also use its power to instantly disappear from the headmaster's office (when DA is caught by the Ministry of Magic), and even "flash" to help the owner resist fatal damage (directly swallowed Voldemort's Avada Curse to be reborn).

Therefore, Newt Scamander's rating in the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the phoenix is classified as a super high-level magical creature of XXXX, and the reason why it is not included in the fifth level of the Ministry of Magic (M.O.M) classification level is only because the phoenix is not an animal that kills wizards, and has been proven by Dumbledore to be tamed.

"This phoenix is so beautiful. ”

Elena looked at Phoenix Fawkes's towering chest and strong wings with burning eyes, and subconsciously licked her lips:

If she remembered correctly, what Professor Dumbledore had just said was - all the food in the room could be eaten, right?
