Chapter 34 The Mirror of Erised
But Percy was just incompetent and furious. Hera was also his professor of black magic defense. If he wanted to get an o, he could only suppress his anger.
Percy considers himself a sane person and knows what is right.
Silently throwing the spelled parchment into the fireplace, everything seems to have never happened.
............
"Hera, I have heard students discussing you recently." Dumbledore smiled rarely, looking at the handsome young man in front of him, very relieved. "Your talents have been well displayed here."
"Haha." Hera laughed perfunctorily. The old fox's face changed so quickly!
What did you say at the beginning?
"The students have a very good review of you, but I heard that the girl from Lavenclaw will go to your office every week?" Dumbledore changed his tone, and the smile on his face also showed signs of disappearing.
"Penello?" Hera frowned, "It's just helping me sort out the content of the class together. After all, I didn't prepare before. But I would like to ask, Professor, did Fox take me to the classroom on Monday morning?"
"Oh, that's good." Dumbledore nodded, but did not answer Hera's second half of the sentence.
"Professor Dumbledore, I need an explanation, why did Fox take me to the classroom?" Hera sighed and repeated. It was really difficult for this old fox to pretend to be stupid.
"Oh, that, maybe Fox is worried that you forgot to go to class, right? Fox." Dumbledore glanced at Fox, which was in Nirvana, just turned into a ball of ashes.
Let’s just throw the blame to the Phoenix who can’t speak?
Hera gritted his teeth and admitted that he had forgotten to go to class, but Fox took him to the classroom, what if he was not wearing clothes?
He didn't expect Fox to understand human shame.
"Dumbledore, I think you should give me the minimum respect. I am not your subordinate. I just chose the right side, so I told you all the information, but this does not mean that I have to accept your unreasonable arrangements."
Hera took a deep breath and finished this long sentence without hesitation.
Dumbledore frowned, and the people in the portrait behind him also had plans to escape, and they did not want to bear Dumbledore's anger.
"Hera, I hope you can trust me more." Dumbledore rubbed his temples and sighed on his chair.
Hera did not give in at all, and even took a step forward and oppressed Dumbledore, "Then please provide some evidence that can make me trust. I have already told all the information I know, but you didn't tell me anything."
"But you didn't tell me that you and Kilow went to steal the Philosopher's Stone together." Dumbledore's half-moon lens flashed, looking at Hera's appearance, his tone was a little playful. "How about Snape?"
"Uh... I'm pretty good at brain closure." Hera pursed her lips, not confident enough.
In order to leave a good impression on Dumbledore, he concealed the fact that he followed Quille to Gringott with him, and only said that he only knew about it later.
Dumbledore sighed, got up and walked out from behind the table.
Hera was not worried about what Dumbledore would do to hurt him. The reason why the White Demon King was different from the Black Demon King was because he was reasonable and would not chew on Avada at any time.
"Come with me, some things should be shown to you, after all, trust is mutual."
Hera followed Dumbledore and came to a corner of the principal's office, where there was something that was unknown, with a piece of cloth covering it.
Dumbledore pointed at Hera sideways and asked him to pull off the cloth above.
This is a very grand mirror, with a height that reaches the ceiling, a gorgeous golden frame, and two claw-shaped feet underneath. A line of words is engraved on the top: Eris Strahru Ait Ubikafru Ait Anvohes.
"Is this Eris Mirror?" Hera couldn't believe his eyes.
Dumbledore's mouth curled up, "Haha, indeed extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind. This year's little wizards are very lucky to have a knowledgeable professor like you."
Hera looked at himself in the mirror and sat high on the throne, kneeling in front of him with a bunch of wizards with hoods, unable to see their faces.
"I think you should already know its magic now, right?"
"It can see the greatest desires of people's hearts..." Hera couldn't help but walk forward, his palms almost touching the mirror.
"Calm down, Hera, those are unreal, people waste their days in front of it, obsessed with what they see, and even forced to go crazy." Dumbledore said softly.
"I think yes, professor..." Hera forced his eyes away, but there was a voice in his heart telling him- he just wanted everyone to surrender to him so that everyone would no longer dare to criticize him and no longer dare to look down on him...
"What did you see?" Dumbledore asked easily.
"I saw Jin Jialong, full of Jin Jialong." Hera sighed, "I lie in the middle of Jin Jialong, that's really wonderful, but those are all illusory..."
"Wealth is indeed fascinating." Dumbledore nodded.
Hera used the cloth in his hand to cover the Eris mirror again. The things it showed were so tempting that Hera was a little irresistible.
"I plan to hide the Philosopher's Stone in the mirror. Only those who want to get the Philosopher's Stone - find it, but do not use it - can get it."
Dumbledore said with great joy, and Hera couldn't help but clap his palms.
"Your wisdom really surprised the students. Such a genius design..." Hera's smile appeared on his face, and he completely lost his tense appearance with Dumbledore just now.
Dumbledore waved his hand and interrupted Hera's flattery. He always knew that Hera had no face at all, but he really came into contact with him and found that he was really shameless, even that guy Montongus could not compare to.
"Okay, why not go back to the office? I believe Miss Krivat has been waiting for you for a long time."
Hera hesitated, "Professor, can you ask you something?"
"Of course." Dumbledore nodded without any pressure.
"What did you see when you looked in the magic mirror?"
"I-I saw myself holding a pair of thick wool socks."
Hera rubbed his chin and turned and left.
Dumbledore looked at Hera's back with complex eyes.
"I don't know if this is good or bad..."
