In the headmaster's office, two cups of hot tea were emitting dense steam. Dumbledore directed a cup of hot tea to Snape and asked, "Severus, what do you think of Allen Harris?"
"Obviously, he has a good family background, excellent grades, and strong abilities, but as obvious as his obvious advantages are his shortcomings. He is as proud as his Animagus, the Phoenix." Snape gently brushed away the Phoenix Fox that had pecked his earlobe a few times because it was dissatisfied with his words.
"Also, he may be the most fickle little wizard in history. He has an unclear relationship with three little witches!" Snape's tone was full of disdain.
"You know what I want to ask, Severus." Dumbledore pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said worriedly, "At the end of the game, I could feel that the deal between Bair and Allen was not what it seemed on the surface. I felt a breath of hell coming from Allen's chest, although it was only for a short moment, and then it was covered up. I'm worried that the demon Bair will lead Allen into the abyss. You know, for a smart and powerful person, it's just like that person. "
"Dumbledore, I think you worry too much. Allen and the mysterious person are completely different. The Black Devil King was afraid that the person he loved the most in this world would always be himself. He would never love anyone. As for Alan Harris, he loved many people. Of course, there are more people who love him. "Snape twitched the corner of his mouth. Even if it was his old master, he could not help but ridicule him.
"Tom was also a heartthrob when he was in Hogwarts. No matter if it was a teacher or a student, even a ghost would not have a bad impression of this gentle, polite, and excellent student president." Dumbledore picked up the teacup and took a sip. "But what you said makes sense. They are indeed different. Severus, Harris used to be one of Gellert Grindelwald's most capable men. Recently, Owen Harris has gathered a lot of Gellert's old subordinates. Do you know about these things? "
"Oh, Severus, have you noticed that Allen is not only similar to Tom, but also very similar to the young Gellert. They are both so talented. They are strict, strong, and disciplined. They are also keen to explore black magic and taboo knowledge, and use it without scruples. "As he spoke, the worry on Dumbledore's face was replaced by a look of reminiscence.
Snape suddenly raised his head, probing Dumbledore's expression, and blurted out: "With all due respect, Dumbledore, isn't this the kind of personality you like?"
Realizing his slip of the tongue, Snape coughed twice: "Dumbledore, as far as I know, the young Grindelwald did not spend all his energy on the pursuit of glory and medals like Allen. Grindelwald has no interest in these things."
"I believe that he is doing all kinds of experiments like Gellert. Otherwise, he would not have mastered so many magic spells that can't be learned in school at this age." Dumbledore believed in his own judgment.
"Dumbledore, a person like Allen Harris would never submit to others. He would not go to Grindelwald, an imprisoned former The Dark Lord, even if they came to him during the summer vacation." Snape also believed in his own judgment.
"This is even more worrying. Gellert was more enthusiastic when he was young, and sometimes even liked to play pranks like the Weasley twins. He was the same as Allen. His conceited nature made them very much advocate the "fair duel". The only difference was that Gellert was a complete idealist. His impersonation of Percival Graves was originally very successful, but in the end, when poor Credence Byerben was killed by the Auror of America, he couldn't help but reveal his ideals, which was why he was exposed. When Allen found out that a "fair duel" could not guarantee his victory, he immediately came to us and began to set up … The most important thing is that Sir Nicholas, the fat friar, and the school's portrait told me that they found a mark similar to a Death Eater on some particularly outstanding students. What surprised me the most was that Allen did not know what method he used to make Ms. Gray completely unwilling to disclose information about them to me. You have to know, Severus, Gellert and I, because of Abfoss, caused … "
Dumbledore did not continue, but paused for a long time with a sad expression. "Gellert did not start to form an army until he got the old wand, and Allen … the Death Eater mark in the school and most of the Aura were controlled by them. This is enough to explain the problem. Harris and Gellert's style is different. They do things within the limits of the law, and they even use the law to achieve their own goals. Of course, Severus, I have also formed the Order of the Phoenix. I don't want to make a move against Family Harris, nor do I have any reason to do so. I just hope that you can help me, an old man, to pay more attention to his movements and signs, even if it's from those who are close to him. We have to ensure that the prophecy is fulfilled. "
For the first time, Snape realized that the world's greatest light wizard, who defeated two generations of The Dark Lord, now looked so old and tired because of the return of the Lord Voldemort and the rise of Family Harris.
"Of course, I will do as you say. But, "Snape leaned forward, his hands on the table." Dumbledore, even if Family Harris really did something, what would you do? You did the same to Tom, and what did you do in the end? You also promised to protect Lily, and what did you do in the end? Did you borrow their invisibility cloak before the accident happened? "
The principal's office fell into a dead silence, but the atmosphere in Family Harris' tower was very different. Everyone's face was full of joy.
"Actually, I didn't just get this box of jewels." Allen said as he reached out his hand and pulled out a model of a Demon-Hunting Spider from the pile of jewels.
"This is also one of my gains. When I need it, I can summon it successfully." Allen then slapped a thick, ancient book full of dark aura on the table. "Apart from that, I also got this."
Allen had just placed the book on the table when the box of jewels turned into a smelly sulphur at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This devil is too stingy, it's actually fake jewels." Daisy angrily covered her mouth and nose, and at the same time, she couldn't help but clean up the hand that Allen had just put in.
Allen smiled indifferently, summoned Maggie, and let the little elf, who was good at housework, get rid of the box of smelly sulphur. During the conversation, he found out that the devil was not willing to pay for the precious knowledge out of his own will. It was not surprising that the devil used fake jewels as a cover for the so-called treasure, after all, their reputation had nothing to do with generosity.
"What else do you want to eat tonight?" Mrs. Harris, who had made a menu, asked happily.
"How about this? After I rescued it from the stage with various patterns on the door, I asked my aunt for it. " Lunn walked in excitedly, behind him, dragging a huge horned camel. "This camel's foot was scalded by the lava, and the bones are exposed. It can't go on like this, it's better to turn it into a roasted camel."
"The horns of a camel can be used in many kinds of potions, it's even stronger than the skin of a fire dragon. Most magic spells have no effect on it. When you make it later, remember to preserve it well, its horns are very beautiful." Lunn looked at the camel in admiration and said.
There was no doubt about Mrs. Harris's craftsmanship, the camel quickly turned into an attractive and fragrant roasted camel.
The guests and the host enjoyed the banquet.
The next day, for Alan, he could quickly devote his attention to the study of magic. Meanwhile, Hogwarts, and even the entire magic world, was discussing the shocking competition yesterday in an uproar.
"In yesterday's competition for the top three, a pit fiend appeared at the final stage. Its appearance shocked many Magi present. Whether it was the cruel torture of Viktor Krum, the petrification of Carla Rogers, or the eruption of lava at the end, it all showed how terrifying this pit fiend was. According to the author's investigation, pit fiends are extremely cunning and cruel devils, and they are adept at distorting the wishes of others. "But what surprised us was that Mister Allen Harris actually used a mysterious influence on the devil. Not only did he win the competition, he even obtained a chest of treasures for himself. If the gentle Bair is a cunning devil, then how should we evaluate Mister Allen Harris, who played the devil in the palm of his hand and even made a deal with him? "
"Magus Weekly?" Harris tossed the magazine aside and flipped open 'Wisdom Triumphs Over Black Magic'.
