Glory To Slytherin

Chapter 183 Dumbledore’s Mission

Hogwarts, the principal’s office.

When Ulysses walked in, Dumbledore was lying in his chair comfortably, squinting comfortably, with steaming coffee and self-popping sweets floating beside him.

A newspaper floats in front of him, turning it over at regular intervals.

After the office door was opened, Dumbledore raised his eyes and said with a smile:

“came back?”

It seems that Ulysses didn’t care much about returning to school half a month late.

“Troubling you.”

Ulysses spoke politely, and sat down by the sofa expertly.

“Thank you? No, no, no.”

Dumbledore smiled and shook his head. “I knew you would go out since Rowena Ravenclaw showed up.”

“You know?”

Ulysses raised his eyebrows in surprise.

“At any rate, I am also the principal of Hogwarts, even if I can’t be compared to the legendary wizards of them, I can’t be underestimated.”

With a wave of Dumbledore’s right hand, a cup of steaming, fragrant black tea appeared out of nowhere at Ulysses’s table.

He even remembered the drinks Ulysses liked.

Ulysses smirked. When did he dare to underestimate the greatest white wizard of the time.

“It looks like a good harvest, Ulysses.”

Dumbledore smiled and threw a Bibi pea into his mouth, carefully comprehending its taste, and the wrinkles on his brows gradually unfolded.

“good.”

Ulysses spoke modestly.

He has put on a brand new wizard robe, and after returning from Pachino, his temperament has faintly changed, giving people a mysterious feeling.

“It’s good to be back. I have been absent for half a month, and there are a lot of classes left…but I don’t think you need me to remind you.”

Dumbledore said, sending a letter from his desk to Ulysses, “Look at this, our Minister of Magic has recently started to be battered again.”

“This is……”

Ulysses looked down, a look of surprise appeared on his face after a while.

“Since Sirius escaped from Azkaban, he has been absconding outside. The British magic circle knows about this and is waiting for the action of the Ministry of Magic. Now the British Ministry of Magic is about to become a laughingstock. I did not expect it to happen again. Thing…”

Dumbledore’s smile narrowed a little, and his tone calmed down.

“Merlin’s relic?”

Ulysses frowned and said questioningly, “What did he leave behind?”

“A scepter.”

Dumbledore said, “It has always been kept in the mysterious affairs department. It is a place where many mysterious objects are gathered, including time converters, prophetic crystal balls, etc…”

Ulysses was silent. At the end of the summer vacation, he heard Lucius Malfoy talk about it, but he didn’t take it to heart. After all, it had nothing to do with him, and Merlin’s relic was not stolen by him.

“I need the principal to help me with everything? Why didn’t he leave the post of Minister of Magic to you?”

Ulysses raised the letter. This is a letter of help written by Cornelius Fudge to Dumbledore. He has been exhausted recently. People in the wizarding world have begun to question the credibility of the Ministry of Magic he is in charge. He must do something to save the prestige of the Ministry.

Therefore, he begged on Dumbledore, hoping that he could help capture Sirius and retrieve Merlin’s scepter.

“I am not here, you know. If you want to be, I have been a few decades ago. But compared to the Minister of Magic, I still prefer the position of Headmaster Hogwarts. After all, I am an educator.”

Dumbledore smiled gently, staring at Ulysses.

Ulysses had an ominous premonition in his heart. He raised his eyebrows and said:

“So the principal, you show me this is…”

“You guessed it right.”

Dumbledore nodded affirmatively.

Ulysses said silently:

“Just now you said that you were the one who asked me to make up the missing courses…”

“Those who can do more work.”

Dumbledore said with a smile, “Just give you a chance to see how much you gain from coming back from the outside…”

He paused and said sternly, “Your ability is enough to graduate, but if you say, I must have a higher standard for you. This time, it will be a practical course for your comprehensive ability.”

Ulysses rubbed his eyebrows with a headache and said:

“I heard that Sirius Black was also a Hogwarts student. Do you really believe that he is a Death Eater who kills without blinking?”

Dumbledore’s face changed a little, and he seemed to recall a lot of past events before sighing faintly after a long while:

“I’m willing to give him a chance to tell…but he never seems to have the idea of ​​justifying it.”

“Okay. But about Merlin’s scepter, I’m still at a loss, and I don’t have any clues…Where can I find it?”

Ulysses shrugged, read Fudge’s letter again, and asked.

“Don’t worry about this, but you may have to work a little harder. Every weekend I will send you to the Ministry of Magic to act with the Aurors, and they will tell you the specific details.”

Dumbledore said with a smile, “You know, Ulysses, I’m an elderly man. It’s better to let a motivated young person run around outside…what do you think?”

Ulysses looked at him faintly, and Dumbledore seemed a little embarrassed to deprive Ulysses of his spare time. He drank his coffee without going to see him.

“Of course, in this case, the time is really a bit rush for you. I will apply to the Ministry of Magic for a time converter. You should have heard of this thing…”

As soon as Ulysses wanted to say something, he saw Dumbledore smiling and taking out an hourglass-like thing from the drawer. The hourglass was shining and hung a long thin gold chain.

Ulysses felt a few black lines hanging on his forehead for a while, and said:

“You are so sweet.”

Even the time converter had been prepared in advance, and it seemed that Dumbledore had planned for this a long time ago.

“People always think a few more steps when they get old…”

Dumbledore readily accepted Dumbledore’s compliment, and with a light movement of his right hand, the time converter on the table suddenly appeared in Ulysses’s hands.

Ulysses lowered his head to look at the time converter, and suddenly said:

“If I guessed correctly, Granger Miss also has one in his hand? I have seen her appear in a very distant place in a short time…”

“Very keen, I have to remind her of this…”

Dumbledore nodded, and his words were suddenly interrupted by a quick knock on the door.

The office door opened again, and Professor McGonagall strode forward, a hint of surprise on his face when he saw Ulysses on the sofa.

“What happened, Minerva? There are not many things that can make you so anxious.”

Dumbledore set his gaze on Professor McGonagall, but his face became slightly solemn as she said.

“Sirius… sneaked into the castle again.”
