Hogwarts: I inherited my legacy

Chapter 144 Lucky Protection Spell

Taking the half baked potato from Raven's hand, which was no longer so hot,

Dumbledore looked at the potato that was spread the color of hell lava and fell into deep thought.

Although I know that Ruiwen's products must be high-quality products, I wonder if this thing will be too exciting for a centenarian like me?

Dumbledore took a tentative bite. It was quite spicy.

Fortunately, the sense of taste of the elderly is slower than that of young people.

In addition, Dumbledore also drank a lot of Snape's potions, and his tolerance increased.

So spiciness is acceptable,

only......

What a strange smell!

An indescribable, indescribable taste hit Dumbledore's taste buds,

If you have to say it, it is equivalent to taking a bite of a grass carp from a pond full of silt and algae.

Seeing Raven eating with gusto, Dumbledore began to doubt life.

Is this... really delicious?

Raven finished her half of the potato in three bites.

Then he stared at Dumbledore and motioned for him to eat quickly.

Under Raven's gaze, Dumbledore could only blush and stuffed the roasted potato into his mouth.

There are not many people who can force Dumbledore to wear the Mask of Pain these days.

The folded ear is a big score!

But Dumbledore didn't wait so long just for this bite of baked potato.

He came to the table in the lounge, opened the drawer, and took out a stack of letters.

"what is this?"

Raven asked as she wiped her hands on the couch.

Dumbledore glanced at the sofa that was covered with ashes in disgust.

Tsk, forget it, forget it, ask him for help, bear with it.

"This is my reply to Nick, please forward it to him for me."

Dumbledore said,

Raven took it and counted it, twelve letters, which is quite a lot.

"Okay, I'll give it to the teacher later. Is there anything else?"

Dumbledore nodded, his face suddenly turned serious,

"That basilisk, can you guarantee that it won't harm the students?"

Seeing Dumbledore's serious expression, Raven swallowed back the words she had intended to pretend to be silly.

"Don't worry, it's all under my control, but you actually know about the Basilisk? This quite surprises me."

Raven asked rhetorically.

Dumbledore smiled sadly.

"I became the Headmaster of Hogwarts in March 1943.

In June of the same year, a young Muggle-born wizard died at Hogwarts. Of course, I wanted to find out the cause, and at the same time, I would not let this happen again. "

Dumbledore's words reminded Raven of what happened in the parallel world.

If he hadn't burst into the world a hundred years ago,

There should be several incidents this year of students being attacked and petrified.

Among them, Colin Creevey, Justin Finch-Fletchley and Hermione all saw the eyes of the basilisk, but by coincidence they did not look directly and thus escaped disaster.

One of the reasons why he was lucky enough to avoid death was by not looking directly at the basilisk.

The basilisk has no murderous intention, and it has no last-hit after being petrified, which is the second reason.

Raven thought carefully about it, and it seemed that when Dumbledore was alive, there had never been an accident within the school that resulted in the death of a young wizard.

Maybe Raven was getting closer to the truth today.

"Do you maintain the lucky protection spell every year?" (Chapter 53)

Raven said in surprise.

The Lucky Protection Spell is a little-known magic that costs a lot, but its effect is average.

It can provide lucky protection to designated groups of people within a certain range. When they encounter danger, they will be saved from death due to various accidents.

This spell requires not only money, but also many precious and difficult-to-reproduce advanced materials.

It has lasted for more than fifty years! This is a price that even Raven will feel is expensive,

Before, Raven had thought that Dumbledore had activated the Lucky Protection Charm for one school year just to catch Tom last year, but he didn't expect that the old guy was renewing it every year!

Dumbledore nodded,

He is an old man with no family and no descendants. He only has a younger brother who doesn't like him very much. He runs a bar in Hogsmeade.

Property is all external possessions. If you can't take it away and no one will inherit it, you just spend it.

"I'm lucky that I have a friend like Nick and that my alchemy skills are not bad."

Dumbledore added,

“This saves me a lot of material processing fees.”

Raven thought about it now. Even though she had a God's perspective, she knew that there was a basilisk living in Hogwarts.

But Dumbledore spent nearly 85% of his century-long life at Hogwarts.

He even taught himself Parseltongue.

It’s not surprising to find a basilisk hiding in a secret room.

"Then why don't you get rid of the basilisk? It killed a Muggle girl."

Raven asked,

Dumbledore sighed.

“You know, it’s not its original intention to kill, it’s Tom who controls it to kill.

This situation is considered innocent in the magical world.

I cannot execute an innocent intelligent individual. "

Indeed, the difference between Lao Deng and Grindelwald is that one of them has principles and bottom line, while the other regards his goals as the most important thing.

This is also the reason why they divorced their daughter and turned against each other.

Even if this matter is brought to the Wizengamot, no wizard is willing to force this old man to violate his own principles.

Because Dumbledore, as the most powerful wizard in the world, can stick to his principles, which is a good thing for everyone else.

The bottom line of the strong is the luck of the weak.

"But...how do you plan to deal with the basilisk in the end? No matter what the reason is, it is unlikely to stay in Hogwarts in the future, right?"

Dumbledore asked Raven,

Raven said tentatively,

"Why don't you ask Mr. Newt to send it to Ilvermorny? I can feel that there are still a few sporadic presences of Slytherin's blood in the direction of Ilvermorny."

This is true. When Raven cursed Voldemort, she checked her household registration.

Following the bloodline of Voldemort's maternal line, Raven found the existence of other Slytherin descendants. Perhaps they themselves didn't know about this bloodline.

Hey, Raven really just checked it casually to see if Voldemort has any descendants in the outside world.

Not for the descendants of Chas Lytherin.

Dumbledore rolled his eyes at him,

"Newt is a key group of people on their blacklist, and their investigation is no less rigorous than those who have been released from prison.

Even Tina complained that when they went to Ilvermorny to visit their grandson, they were strictly scrutinized by the Ministry of Magic. "

After hearing Dumbledore's words, Raven sighed,

"Hey, it seems I have to make the trip myself."

Dumbledore spoke hurriedly,

"Just let them go. Can you find another way to deal with it?"

They traveled thousands of miles and tried their best to deliver a thousand-year-old basilisk to the home of a descendant of Slytherin, so that it could be returned to its original owner. Maybe they themselves didn’t know which ancestor raised it!

In fact, I just want to watch them have fun! You can be a human being!
