Chapter 453
Harry was overjoyed to hear that he didn't have to take Kreacher with him all the time, and he shouted at Kreacher, "Kreacher, I order you to help out in the Hogwarts kitchen, and you are not allowed to leave without my orders." ”
Kreacher stopped banging his head on the floor, gave Harry a resentful look, and then disappeared with a "snap".
"Okay, so there's only one small problem left. Dumbledore looked much more relaxed, "According to Sirius's will, Buckbeak is yours now." ”
"What?" asked Harry, a little stunned.
"The Hippogriff has wings. ”
"Oh..... All right...... How do I ...... Well....... Take care of it?" Harry asked hesitantly, though he didn't hate Hippogriffs, but it was clear that Buckby couldn't fit into an owl's quarters like Hedway.
"After Sirius died, Hagrid had been taking care of him. Dumbledore said, "If you wish, ask Hagrid to give Barkerbeak back." ”
"No, just let Hagrid take care of it, I think Buckbeak must be more than happy with Hagrid. Harry hurriedly said.
"Well, I think Hagrid will be very happy. Dumbledore smiled and said, "By the way, we've decided to change the name to 'Veyun' for Buckbeak's safety, though I doubt the Ministry of Magic will recognize it as having been sentenced to death by them." ”
Harry smiled and touched his head, if it weren't for Sirius's accident, he would have forgotten about Buckbeak.
"So Harry, are you ready to pack?" Dumbledore glanced at Harry's suitcase.
"Uh......." Harry looked at Dumbledore in embarrassment. To be honest, he didn't think Dumbledore would come, and he heard a knock on the door before he hurriedly prepared these things.
"Do you think I'm going to miss the appointment?" Dumbledore smirked, when did he start to make an impression of untrustworthiness in the minds of his students?
"I'll get ready at once, sir. Harry hurried upstairs and nearly fell.
After waiting six or seven minutes, Harry came down with a large box and his owl cage.
"Well, now there's only one question left. Dumbledore pushed his glasses and said with some seriousness. "Surely you know that Harry will be an adult in another year........."
"Not true. Penny spat out the words clearly, and it was the first time she had spoken since Louis and the others had come in.
"Excuse me?" asked Dumbledore politely. Just like many wizards respect Dumbledore for the same reason, Dumbledore will treat him with respect no matter who he is, even if that person is a Muggle that almost all wizards look down upon.
He was a month younger than Dudley, who would not be eighteen until two years later. Penny said clearly.
"Ah........ Yes........." Dumbledore said with a sudden realization, "but in the wizarding world, seventeen is an adult, so next year Harry will be an adult." ”
"Now, as you all know, the wizard named Voldemort has returned to this country. The Ministry of Magic has been in the preparation phase lately. The Harry that Voldemort has repeatedly tried to kill is even more dangerous than when I left him on your doorstep fifteen years ago. At that time, I left a letter explaining the murder of his parents and expressing the hope that you would take care of him as if he were your own. Dumbledore's calm narrator, there was not the slightest emotion in his tone, as if he were reading an article, but Louis felt the pressure from him.
This is not the kind of royal spirit, but an extreme control of magic power. A powerful wizard like Dumbledore no longer needs to be confined to so-called spells, and his own joys, sorrows, and sorrows will affect everything around him.
Louis reflexively clenched his wand, not to be wary of Dumbledore's sudden attack on him, but because he felt a knee-jerk reaction from a deadly threat.
"You didn't do what I said. You never treated him like a son. He knows nothing but your neglect and destruction. Luckily for all, he at least escaped the shocking assault you did to the unfortunate boy sitting between you. Dumbledore said coldly.
Louis looked at Dumbledore's cold face and couldn't help but wonder if they had raised Harry to Dudley's size, would Dumbledore blow up the house with a spell in a fit of rage?
After all, Harry, who weighs less than three hundred pounds, can't dodge spells so dexterously, and he can't play with a broomstick so slippery. Louis had no doubt that if Harry was really that fat, let alone a broomstick, not even a mop would be able to carry him.
Petunia and Dursley looked bewildered towards the middle of the two of them, but they didn't see a second person except their son, Dudley.
"You mean I mistreated my son?" Dursley looked like an angry boar.
Dumbledore didn't answer, he just waved his hand, and Dursley closed his mouth: "The magic I cast fifteen years ago was that as long as Harry could call this place 'home', he would be strongly protected. But he's miserable here, he's not welcome here, he's being treated roughly, and you're not even willing to give him a room. The spell would cease as soon as Harry turned seventeen, in other words, when he was an adult. All I ask is: you let him come back and live in this house one last time, until his seventeenth birthday, which will ensure that the protection lasts until that time. ”
Louis finally heard the anger in Dumbledore's words.
In fact, Dumbledore's dissatisfaction with the Dursleys was already obvious, but he didn't allow himself to use magic to bully Muggles, which was something that only dark wizards liked to do.
For example, if the Dursleys were nice to Harry, and they were a family that loved each other, Dumbledore would have let the glasses hit the three of them for a long time?
Obviously, Dumbledore used a lot of small details to show his anger and dissatisfaction with the Dursleys.
The Dursleys fell silent. Dursley himself couldn't help it, and Louis didn't think he could break Dumbledore's Silence Curse. As for Dudley, he may have been thinking about when he was being abused. As for Penny, she behaved very strangely, her face turned red, and if it weren't for the fact that Louis knew that she had been very harsh on Harry since she was a child, which caused Dursley and Dudley to do the same, he would almost have thought that Penny felt guilty.
