231 Conversation and parting
The dim kerosene lamp illuminates only a small part of the room, making the whole room look a little gray.
This is the Headmaster's office of Hogwarts, still late at night, still Dumbledore enjoying a sweet snack alone. It's just that Dumbledore, who is usually breezy and calm, is full of solemnity on his face at the moment. There was a crystal ball on the table in front of him, which he usually used to observe the sounds in the school.
"It's a terrible power." Whispering to himself, Dumbledore put down the dessert box in his hand.
He had seen the battle that had just taken place in the Forbidden Forest. The kind of ruining power that Xuan Chen expressed made him, an old man who had lived for more than 100 years, feel an indescribable coldness.
With a creak, the door to the headmaster's office was gently pushed open, and Broken Chen's figure appeared in the doorway, and after seeing Dumbledore looking at him, he walked in with his feet raised.
"Excuse me, Headmaster Dumbledore." With sorry words in his mouth, Broken Chen walked over to the chair and sat down.
"Drake, it's good you're here." Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of joy in his tone, not knowing what he was thanking about.
Hearing this, Broken Chen smiled: "Of course I have to explain it to you, otherwise I'm afraid the principal will not sleep well." ā
"Thank you, Drake, so let's get down to business."
Broken Chen sat up straight: "Okay, but I guess it's up to you to ask, after all, I don't know where to start." ā
Dumbledore smiled, his pleated face no longer hazy. In fact, from the moment Broken Chen stepped into this room, Dumbledore put down most of his hanging heart.
In the past, Dumbledore's impression of Broken Chen was that of a talented young man, but the battle in the Forbidden Forest just now made Dumbledore discover that Broken Star actually had such a powerful strength. This made him surprised and worried. Because if he does something bad with the power of Broken Chen, then there is almost no one in this world who can stop him.
However, seeing that Broken Chen came to him as soon as the battle ended. Dumbledore knew that his previous worries were unnecessary, and although he was now increasingly unable to see through the young man in front of him, the stability that came from the depths of his heart made him feel very reassured.
"Drake, to be honest, I was very surprised to see what you just said, it's hard to imagine that magic can cause such amazing destructive power, which was unimaginable before." Dumbledore said, his tone full of amazement.
Broken Chen smiled and shook his head: "Actually, it's not exactly magic, it's just a magic method I thought of." It's not really a big deal. ā
"Hehe, Drake, you don't have to be modest, I used to think you were just a rare genius, but now I realize that genius is no longer enough to describe your talent, it is no exaggeration to say that you are the only genius and ghost talent I have seen in my life."
In the face of the compliment, the expression on Broken Chen's face remained the same: "Okay, principal, let's talk about business." If you have any doubts about my powers, I'll try to answer them. ā
Broken Star said this to reassure Dumbledore, after all, he planned to stay at Hogwarts after figuring out Hermione's affairs. If Dumbledore was upset by the strength he had shown, it wasn't what he wanted.
Dumbledore's smile grew even stronger when he saw Broken Star so open and honest, and he shook his head and said, "You can tell me this. I already understand your attitude, so I'd better excuse me if I ask or something. ā
"Well, thank you for your trust." Broken Chen thanked him. "Then I want to talk about another thing, and that is the decision whether or not I want to leave Hogwarts."
"Have you already figured out the answer?"
"yes, I figured it out." Broken Chen nodded, "It was because of something that bothered me before, but now that I've figured it out, and I still need to continue to practice at Hogwarts, I decided to stay." ā
"That's good, I'd love to see you stay." Dumbledore first congratulated him, then asked, "So what about your identity?" And do you still want to take Harry and Hermione as disciples? ā
Broken Chen thought for a while and said, "Regarding my identity as a blood clan, you should deal with it, it doesn't matter to me whether it is exposed or not." As for accepting disciples, let's go as usual, after this semester, I will hold a magic inheritance ceremony to officially accept Hermione and Harry as disciples, but I have to ask them if they are willing first. ā
"Harry must be willing, and Miss Granger, I don't think it's a big problem. I've talked to her and Penelope before, and although they can't accept your identity for a while, I can see that they really care about you, so it's only a matter of time before they rest it. ā
Hearing Dumbledore say this, Broken Chen breathed a sigh of relief, in this way, he only had to find a time to talk to Hermione, and the problem would be roughly solved.
"So be it, Goodnight Headmaster, and have a good night's sleep." After speaking, he got up and said goodbye.
Dumbledore didn't keep it, he originally planned to discuss the plan to deal with Voldemort with Broken Star, but now it seems that there is no longer that need, being hit by Broken Star's Thunder Arrow, Voldemort will take off a few layers of skin if he doesn't die, and it will be much easier to deal with.
Back in his cabin, Broken Chen didn't plan to stay up all night studying alchemy, and after washing up, he lay down on the bed in the bedroom. When I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I felt a warm body lying next to me.
Broken Chen woke up and asked with some uncertainty: "Shiryl?" Or Yunas? ā
The people around him didn't answer, but just snorted dissatisfiedly and hugged Jiechen's arm.
Broken Chen's body stiffened suddenly, he already knew who the people around him were, after all, they had been together for so long day and night, and they couldn't be more familiar with it.
"Why did you get here? What's the matter? Broken Chen twitched his arm uneasily, found that he was hugged very tightly, and after being depressed for a while, he stopped struggling.
"What? Are you disappointed to find out that it wasn't your two cute little sisters? Deadpool said in a huff, but the words were so sour that even a fool could hear them.
"Well, I didn't mean that, just a little surprised, hehehe" Broken Chen smiled awkwardly, but his heart trembled. Deadpool's cousin is already very obvious, but he doesn't know if it's Deadpool's prank.
"Cut, this is where I am," Deadpool muttered dissatisfied. The voice was so small that he almost didn't hear it clearly.
"What?" Broken Chen asked in surprise.
"No big idiots! Miss Ben is going to sleep here today! What are your comments! Deadpool explained in a bit of a panic, then sat up and roared in annoyance.
Even in the dim light, Broken Chen could still see the faint flush on Deadpool's delicate little face.
Broken Chen looked at her, suddenly smiled softly, raised the arm that was released by Deadpool, and wrapped her arms around her and lay down again: "Okay, you can sleep here today." ā
"Hmm" snorted, and Deadpool buried his head in Broken Chen's arms, and after a while, his breathing became even.
Broken Chen watched Deadpool fall asleep with a doting smile on his face.
After experiencing that lonely and dark life. Broken Chen cherishes the people around him very much, and Deadpool accompanies him all the way, which is already equivalent to a relative-like existence for him. In Broken Chen's mind, Deadpool is more like a tsundere sister than his overseer.
Broken Chen does not deny that he always feels a little lonely when he is alone, although it will be slightly relieved in the busy situation, but the vacancy in his heart is difficult to fill no matter what. And at this time, Deadpool always appears, or never leaves. Even if she's just arguing with herself, even if she's just trying to play tricks on herself with pranks. While being annoyed, Broken Chen felt a vague satisfaction.
As for whether Deadpool has a different kind of affection for him, Broken Chen always subconsciously ignores it, he only thinks that this is a kind of dependence of his sister on his brother. In the eyes of Broken Chen. Although Deadpool has immense strength, his personality is actually not much more mature than those children.
"If only it could go on like this." Thinking of this, Broken Chen closed his eyes with peace of mind, and fell asleep holding Deadpool's delicate and fragrant body.
When he opened his eyes again. The next morning, Deadpool was gone, and he thought he was back in his body.
After preparing breakfast for the two Bloodline girls. Broken Chen rode Lucifer into the Forbidden Forest, the new alchemy practice yĆ n needs some old vine wood to make materials, he is going to go to the Forbidden Forest to collect some, by the way, take a look at the traces left by yesterday's battle, maybe it will help him improve the Thunder Arrow.
At noon, Broken Chen returned from the Forbidden Forest, and as soon as he stepped out of the edge of the woods, he found an unexpected guest sitting in front of the hut.
Seeing the other party's long chestnut hair, Duan Chen said in surprise: "Penelope? What are you doing here? ā
Hearing Broken Chen's voice, Penelope, who didn't know what he was thinking, came back to his senses, and turned his head to see Broken Chen not far away riding Lucifer walking slowly.
The golden sunlight of the afternoon sprinkled on Duanchen's body, covering him with a warm halo, reflecting his face, which looked even more handsome. In addition, Broken Chen rode a snow-white Lucifer, and he looked like a knight walking in the holy light.
Penelope's eyes were full of obsession, but when he thought of the difference between Broken Chen and his own identity, his beautiful face revealed a trace of sadness.
"Hello, Professor Drake." Penelope stood up and greeted Duanchen, "I'm here today to say goodbye to you. ā
Broken Chen was stunned for a moment, turned over and jumped off Lucifer's back: "Farewell? Don't you have two years to graduate? Why do you want to leave all of a sudden? ā
"My parents were going to France for work and wanted me to transfer to Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and I agreed."
"That's right." Broken Chen has some regrets, he has a good impression of Penero and is a very good friend. It's a pity that Penelope is leaving now, maybe there is a reason for him. But that's the end of the matter, and talking about it will only add to the sadness.
"I'm here today not only to say goodbye to you, but also to thank you."
Broken Chen looked at her puzzled: "Thank me?" ā
"Yes, it's a pity, but you're the first person I've had a crush on, and I really, really like you, it's just," Penelope choked up before continuing: "But I'm also happy, because I've at least experienced the taste of love, and I understand that the person I like is actually very good, even if you're a Blood, I shouldn't be worthy of you, but I don't want it to end like this!" ā
After finishing the words in his heart in one breath, Penelope didn't wait for Broken Chen's reaction, walked quickly to Broken Chen's side, stood on tiptoe and kissed him lightly on the face.
After a long time, Broken Chen came back to his senses, looking at Penelope's back in the distance, and the words of the girl when she left still echoed in his ears.
"Thank you for making me have a wonderful dream."

PS: I'm not inspired, and I've been busy with classes lately, so I know that my update is very poor, so I apologize to everyone.
In addition, the more I wrote, the more unmotivated I felt, and if it weren't for the vow that I would never cut it into pieces, I really wanted to give up, maybe I should adjust it well, it's boring.
