In Harris Tower, Penello wiped the sweat off her face with a white sheepskin towel and walked down the stairs briskly. When she passed by Hermione, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room and flipping through the report of the Umbrella, she even took the initiative to greet Hermione. Her tone was relaxed and cheerful, and she seemed to be in high spirits. Then, she walked back to her room in the tower and changed her clothes.
This actually made Hermione confused. Hermione looked at the back of Penelope who had swept away her previous gloominess and depression. What kind of good thing had this woman encountered? Did Luna finally feel that it was too troublesome and deliberately let her win this time?
Hermione sighed heavily. For a moment, she actually envied the carefree Penello. She must be in such a good mood because she did not think about Helena's situation.
Hermione's mind was in a mess. She put aside the report in her hands. She had been busy with the Umbrella and the Ministry of Magic, so she had temporarily put her thoughts aside.
But now, she could not help but think about Allen. Previously, he was looking for some books on making magical prosthetics in the tower. Then, he got some materials and locked himself in the exploration room on the top floor. Now that he came out, it meant that he had already made the finger bone that was used in Luna's resurrection ceremony for Mr. Xenophilius Slovegood.
Hermione thought about Luna's true identity, and the fact that they even had children together. She thought about the ghost of the academy in Hogwarts … What was her position in Allen's heart? With Luna around, what was her position in Allen's heart?
Just as Hermione was lost in her thoughts, Luna, who had just finished bathing in the training room, walked down the path Penello had taken. She sat directly opposite Hermione, her light silver eyes fixed on Hermione. Hermione turned her head away uncomfortably. She felt that Luna always had this kind of power that made people uncomfortable. Even her Brain Seal spell could not prevent Luna from seeing through all of her thoughts.
But when Luna's singing voice rang out, Hermione could no longer care about anything else. Even though her thoughts were in turmoil, she forced herself to listen carefully …
After they talked for a while, Allen appeared in the tower with Xenophilius and Mr. Slovegood.
"If you don't stay by Alan's side, he will be completely influenced by Penelope." Luna quickly said in a soft voice. She stood up and turned to Xenophilus. "Dad!" Xenophilus was very excited. He looked at Xenophilus and said, "Dad!"
Luna's last words woke Hermione up. She had been immersed in what Luna had told her and was shocked for a long time. However, Luna's last words shocked Hermione. Penello was a ruthless person. Even the Aura of the Ministry of Magic was afraid of her. If she did not exist, Allen might really be influenced by Penello in the long run.
In fact, when Hermione thought about how she had allowed Alan to maintain a kinder side, Miss Know-It-All couldn't help but spontaneously feel a sense of mission. Moreover, when she thought about how Alan had done this to take care of some of her feelings, her previous melancholy also lessened a lot.
Upon hearing Luna's voice, Xenophilius, who had just stood still, didn't have time to look around this unfamiliar place. He rushed over and lifted Luna up for a hug. His eyes reddened, and he hurriedly placed his daughter on the ground. He took a step back and sized up his daughter. After confirming that Luna was safe, he heaved a sigh of relief.
With a fawning smile, Allen led Xenophilius and Luna to the study room on the second floor. This couldn't be better for Xenophilius. After learning that his daughter was actually Loynar Ravenclaw from Allen, he had too many questions to ask his daughter personally.
In the evening, in the Harris Tower, the entire dining hall was soaked in the aroma of the food made by Morgan-le-Feil. Owen Harris stood up and enthusiastically raised his glass to Xenophilius. Then, he looked around the table and introduced, "This is Mr. Xenophilius Slovegood. He's Luna's father. From today onwards, he will be a member of our intimate family. Come, let's toast to Mr. Xenophilius Slovegood."
It was only now that Xenophilius felt a little embarrassed about being stared at by everyone with his dirty hair, but he still raised his glass. The silver pinky finger on his hand that had just been fitted not long ago shone brightly under the light.
After everyone drank the wine in their cups, the cups were refilled automatically. "I have another person to introduce to you." Mr. Harris raised his glass more cautiously than before. He bowed slightly to Luna only to find that she was already fighting with the pudding on the plate in front of her. He had to prolong the introduction to give her some time to process the food in her mouth. "We are already very familiar with Miss Luna Lovegood. She is a student of the Hogwarts Ravenclaw Academy … But now, I would like to formally introduce her other identity, which is the founder of the Hogwarts, Ravenclaw Ravenclaw. We are all gathered here today, and my son Allen is able to return to us after falling through the veil …"
In the days since Allen and Luna came back, everyone except Xenophilius already knew her true identity. But since Allen and Luna did not talk much about this matter, nor did they intend to tell the story behind it, they did not want to take the initiative to react to this matter. They just tried their best to pretend that they did not know anything.
Now that Mr. Owen Harris introduced her in front of everyone, they could not help but feel a little lost. How should they address Luna in the future? Should they call her Luna or Rona? What kind of etiquette should they use to treat the founder of the Hogwarts? Hermione and Penello looked at each other and could not help but sigh secretly. They followed the crowd and raised their glasses to Luna.
Luna did not expect to be called so suddenly. She swallowed the pudding in her mouth, which made her choke a little. Her light silver eyes bulged out. She took a sip of the gum juice that Morgan-le-Feil, who was sitting next to her, handed to her. After she flushed it down her stomach, she got up and said, "Call me Lu … Burp."
Feeling that the atmosphere had become a little strange due to the sound and smell of the gum juice burp, Allen put his hand on his forehead and stood up to help her out. "In this ritual to resurrect Luna, other than her father, Mr. Xenophilius Slovengood …" After flattering Xenophilius, Allen snapped his fingers and said, "There is another person who contributed greatly. For Luna, she willingly offered her hand. She is Maggie."
With a light snap, Maggie, the house-elf in a beautiful uniform, appeared in front of everyone rather embarrassedly. Her big protruding eyes blinked and looked very cute. However, the empty left sleeve made her look a little pitiful, which made Hermione feel a little sad.
Mr. Xenophilius Slovengood looked at the loyal house-elf and solemnly got up to shake hands with Maggie. He kept thanking her.
"To be able to serve Master … this should be my honor." As someone who was more used to not being discovered by wizards, Maggie obviously could not stand Xenophilius' enthusiasm. Her long ears turned red. For a house-elf, she was very proud to have the opportunity to save her master. Her house-elf friend, Dobby, kept expressing his envy when he saw her.
Luna stood up, walked out of her seat, and patted Maggie's little head. She squatted down and held up Maggie's bare left arm. Maggie reflexively wanted to pull her hand back.
Luna saw through her thoughts and said softly, "This is not ugly, Maggie." Then Luna's right hand stroked the space between Maggie's broken wrist. A silver band of light appeared and slowly twisted into a small and slender mithril hand. This hand automatically connected to Maggie's broken arm. When Allen was making a little finger for Xenophilius, Luna also made a replica of Victor's hand for her house-elf.
Maggie raised her hand and curiously stretched her fingers. She clenched her fist and loosened it again. The feeling from her left hand made her bow deeply to Luna with joy. This time, without waiting for Mr. Harris's suggestion, everyone was touched by this scene. They raised their glasses in unison and said, "To Maggie."
Allen also put a glass of wine in the hand of the little elf. The little elf, who was almost trembling with excitement, drank the wine in the glass. Luna then handed Maggie a left leather glove under the shocked eyes of Hibiscus Chinensis and Xenophilius. "Maggie, put it on. Don't touch Dobby directly with your left palm in the future. Otherwise, he will be sucked dry by you, and Hermione will make trouble for us …"
