Chapter 99: Dumbledore

"It was a dark and windy night, and that day ...... Forget it, you're still young, it's not good to know too much. ”

Merlin's tone changed suddenly, and he stopped the conversation a little stiffly.

It's not that he doesn't want to say it, it's that he noticed something peeking at him, as if a fire was burning in Merlin's perception, like Phoenix.

In the Harry Potter world, something like fire reminds Merlin of Dumbledore's pet, a phoenix.

Merlin suspected that Dumbledore had not completely reassured Hagrid with Harry, as evidenced by this phoenix.

"Okay."

Harry thought he could know the truth, but was told that he couldn't, and his tone was visibly a little lost.

"Harry, go buy something yourself, I have something to leave for a while, you remember to report my name to the boss, there will be a discount."

Merlin tapped Harry on the shoulder, and hurried away, as he noticed that the phoenix had suddenly flown into a room, hinting at Merlin for a chat.

Soon, Merlin found a place where no one was and added a lot of defensive spells to himself, and then used the space to teleport into the room.

"Hulala"

When Phoenix Fawkes saw Merlin coming, he turned into a ball of fire and lit the fireplace in the room.

An old man wearing a robe, with long flowing silver-white hair and a long shaggy beard, stepped out of the fireplace.

Dumbledore was tall, but a little thin because of his age, wearing a pair of half-moon glasses, and bright blue eyes staring at Merlin.

"Ahem hello, Headmaster Dumbledore, I'm Merlin, a mysterious mage from the East, and now Professor Quirrell's assistant."

Merlin coughed lightly, breaking the calm and awkward atmosphere between the two.

He was a little surprised, Dumbledore's strength made him a little incomprehensible, and it was very likely that he was not under Merlin.

Of course, if Merlin follows the performance in the movie, while Dumbledore is not paying attention, he can be sure that he will be killed in seconds.

"Hello, mage from the East, may you take a seat, would you like a cup of tea?"

Dumbledore moved the table in the room to create a tea set, and said with a smile on his old face.

"Just give me a cup of black tea, I just happen to have a few boxes of Gringotts desserts here, I think it's not bad, let's try it together."

Merlin pulled out a chair and sat down across from Dumbledore, and took a box of desserts out of the ring and opened it.

He discovered that Dumbledore was not a conspirator with a stomach full of intrigues and using other people to achieve his own ends, as some of the movie reviews he had seen before.

In Merlin's senses, he had no ill intentions, and he was defenseless against Merlin as a stranger.

Some are only calm and kind, of course, this may also be Dumbledore's appearance, Merlin will not let down his guard.

"The elves' desserts, I haven't tasted them for a long time, so you're welcome."

Dumbledore was like a real old man, as if he had met something he loved, and he was afraid that Merlin would take it back, so he quickly picked up a piece of dessert and chewed it slowly in his mouth.

"Ahem, I don't know what the principal is looking for me."

Merlin went straight to the point and didn't talk much.

"I happened to be there when Professor McGonagall received the letter of introduction that Tom had written for you.

When I heard that I wanted to go to Hogwarts School, I stopped by and had a look. ”

Dumbledore, taking a sip of dessert and a sip of tea, spoke slowly.

"Oh, I see, do you think I can get into Hogwarts, headmaster?"

Merlin felt a little surprised, he thought it was because of Harry's business, he came to him, so he simply replied with his words.

"Mage Merlin, you're kidding, aren't you Professor Quirrell's assistant, of course you can teach at Hogwarts.

Also, Master Merlin, you're young and promising. ”

Dumbledore suddenly laughed meaningfully, obviously sensing that Merlin's strength was extraordinary.

Merlin picked up the cup and took a sip of black tea, apparently not caring, but mentally checking himself to see if there was any trace of being attacked by the Dementor's magic.

Regent Mind is a form of magic in the world of Harry Potter that can read human emotions or memories.

And Dumbledore was a master who was proficient in the Mind of the Gods, and among the defensive spells that Merlin had added to himself before, there was a spell to prevent mental invasion.

"No, no, I'm the worst of us, it's nothing."

Merlin was relieved to confirm that Dumbledore wasn't using the Dementor Mind, half-jokingly, half-seriously.

There are thousands of Earth Traversers, and Merlin, as a member of the army of Traversers, has long ruled the world for immortality like others of his age.

And he is a magician, and he can't even do it, saying that he is the worst one, and there is no problem.

Dumbledore smiled silently and silently finished the last piece of dessert, an eerie calm in the air once again.

"Ahem, Mage Merlin, what do you think of Tom Riddle?

Perhaps you should know him by another name, Lord Voldemort. ”

Dumbledore broke his silence once more, asking Merlin directly the question that Merlin hadn't expected.

Merlin looked at Dumbledore's bright blue eyes and made sure he didn't mean anything other than to ask Voldemort a question.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, are you sure you want to ask me for the opinion of someone who has just arrived in England?"

Merlin asked calmly, he didn't understand Dumbledore's thoughts.

With Dumbledore's personality in the movie, he doesn't seem to be so direct as someone who can ask such a thing to a stranger like Merlin.

"Master Merlin, you're mistaken, I mean, what do you think of Voldemort."

Dumbledore was not surprised by Merlin's reaction, and he was more certain of his suspicions, Merlin didn't understand anything.

"The wizards here are afraid of him, but in my opinion, he is just a wizard who has fallen into madness and is mentally abnormal, and there is nothing to be afraid of."

He compared Dumbledore, and Voldemort was like that, and the whole Voldemort was casually raised.

What's more, Voldemort is now torn apart, Merlin compares the places according to his memory, finds out the Horcruxes, and it is easier to raise Voldemort.

As he answered Dumbledore, Merlin suddenly felt a wave of magical power, like a breeze gently blowing.

But again, there was no malice, just confirmation of Merlin's mood swings as he spoke.

Merlin ignored it, and generously showed his true emotions in his heart.

"And what do you think of Harry?"

Dumbledore seemed to get a satisfactory answer, and instead of asking Voldemort, he asked Harry.

"Harry is very good, to be honest I am very happy with him, I would love him to learn some of my skills, I am sure he will be a good fit."

Merlin probably guessed Dumbledore's thoughts, so he was no longer reserved, and directly expressed his desire to teach Harry.

Dumbledore said so much, probably because he saw Merlin and Harry getting so close, and felt that Merlin was not easy to deal with, so he speculated about Merlin's position.

If he expressed any special reaction to Voldemort, Merlin suspected that Dumbledore might be about to treat him specially.
