Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard
Chapter 844: Persuading Ariana
"Bang!"
Kyle stood outside the door, watching the door of Potter's potion shop being ruthlessly closed.
But soon the door was opened again, and Code threw out a large package from inside, and then closed the door again.
Dumbledore stood outside, watching all this in confusion.
"Nothing, I just bought some things." Kyle explained.
He picked up the package, which contained about a dozen bottles of different potions. Some were broken by Code's rough behavior just now, but most were still intact.
Kyle picked them out and put them in his box... Although they were all very common types, they were bought with his own money after all, and could not be wasted.
"You suddenly ran here just to buy potions?" Dumbledore was even more confused.
In his impression, Code was not a famous potion master. The things here could be found in any potion store, and even a fifth-year student with good potion grades could make them by himself.
Was it necessary for Kyle to make a special trip at this time?
"Buying potions is not the purpose, I'm here for this." Kyle took out the box and showed it.
Dumbledore was still wondering why Kyle came here, but when he saw the old box, he suddenly realized something.
"Invisibility cloak?"
"To be precise, it is the invisibility cloak, one of the three holy artifacts." Kyle said, "Perhaps only this thing can give Ariana a glimmer of hope at this time."
Dumbledore's body trembled.
Yes, how could he forget this matter? He obviously knew that the invisibility cloak had been passed down from generation to generation in the Potter family. Why didn't he think of it before?
"He just lent it to you?" Dumbledore suddenly realized something, "I'm afraid no one knows how precious this thing is better than Code."
"It's really not easy, so I used some special methods..." Kyle briefly repeated what happened in the store before.
"Twenty Galleons... and three bottles of wine?" Dumbledore sighed, "I didn't expect it to be so simple."
"This is not simple at all." Kyle looked back, "His wife is here too."
"If he hadn't found out that the strength gap was too big, even if I gave him a hundred bottles of wine, he wouldn't be able to take out the invisibility cloak."
"Wait." Dumbledore looked at Kyle nervously, "Could it be that you..."
"Don't get me wrong, I didn't do anything, I just showed some magic." Kyle shook his head, "My original intention was to make him believe that I didn't want to steal the invisibility cloak, but Cord didn't dare to gamble, he just made the best choice at the moment.
"The ones that came after that were just based on this, trying to get some benefits for himself as much as possible, but it's true that he likes those wines... After all, they were left by Hufflepuff, and ordinary people can't see them."
"Hufflepuff?" Dumbledore was confused. He naturally wouldn't remember the golden cup after losing his memory.
"This is not important. "Kyle said.
After getting what they wanted, the two walked towards Dumbledore's house together.
During this time, Dumbledore couldn't help looking at the box in Kyle's hand and asked, "Do you want to use it to hide Ariana?"
"I have this idea." Kyle said, he opened the box and took out the invisible cloak that seemed to be woven with water.
The so-called Hallows, also known as the Deathly Hallows, are things that appear in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", a fairy tale that is well-known in the wizarding world, a bit like "Andersen's Fairy Tales" in the Muggle world.
This story is a bit long. Legend has it that three brothers met the legendary Death and passed the test. The Death decided to fulfill one of their wishes.
But Kyle prefers to believe that this is because the Death is too boring and he is not with him. A little game played by the brothers.
The eldest of the three brothers was the most warlike. He asked for the strongest magic wand. With this magic wand, he was invincible and defeated all enemies, but in the end he was killed by a sneak attack while sleeping.
Then his soul was taken away by the god of death, and he failed.
Then there was the most arrogant second brother, Cadmus. He wanted to play tricks on the god of death and made a wish to resurrect the dead. The god of death also fulfilled his wish and gave him a stone. As long as he turned it three times in his hand, he could resurrect the dead in his mind.
After Cadmus returned home , used the resurrection stone to resurrect the girl he once loved.
But the god of death did not tell him that the resurrection stone can only recall the soul, and the recalled soul does not belong to the human world. Here, she is suffering all the time.
Cadmus was even more painful. In order to truly integrate into the girl's world, he chose to take the initiative to end his life and surrender to the god of death.
Finally, the third brother Ignotus, he is the smartest one and the only one who does not believe in the god of death. Out of caution, he made a wish to go to a place outside the jurisdiction of the god of death, and then got this invisible cloak.
According to legend, this invisible cloak is the cloak of the god of death himself.
Then he succeeded. The god of death looked for him for many years, but he could not find him. Until he was too old, he took off the invisible cloak, left the clothes to his son, greeted the god of death like an old friend, and happily followed the god of death.
This is the story of the three brothers. Almost every child born in a wizard family has seen it. Most wizards believe that this story is to tell them to be vigilant at all times.
But what’s interesting is that the three legendary holy artifacts… the invisibility cloak, the elder wand, and the resurrection stone are all real, and Kyle has seen them all.
What he is holding now is one of them, the invisibility cloak.
The reason why Kyle wants to use this thing to save Ariana is not only because of its legendary story, but also because the invisibility cloak is the key to this incident.
The young Grindelwald and Dumbledore left without saying goodbye because they were going to the southern highlands to find the invisibility cloak, which is why Aberforth was furious.
Then Grindelwald was depressed because he didn’t find what he wanted, and he no longer had the calmness of the past, and couldn’t help but fight with Aberforth.
Ariana was accidentally killed when she tried to stop them.
In a sense, even if the invisibility cloak was not the main reason for Ariana, it was the fuse that caused all this.
Kyle had a hunch that this accident started with the invisibility cloak, and perhaps it could also end with the invisibility cloak.
Kyle thought to himself and couldn’t help but speed up his pace.
Soon, the exquisite house was in sight.
At this point, Dumbledore suddenly hesitated and subconsciously slowed down his pace.
"We can't go to see Ariana, we can't..." he muttered to himself.
But Kyle didn't stop at all. He took out his wand, and a small sapling next to him began to grow rapidly. Kyle stepped on a branch that spread over and was brought to the attic window.
"Close your ears and plug your ears!" Kyle waved his wand again and stretched out his hand to push open the attic window.
Ariana was sitting on a small bed inside. After hearing the movement, she subconsciously turned her head, first looking at Kyle who jumped in, and then looking at the bright sun outside.
"You... why are you here at this time." Ariana was startled, "No, if Brother Aberforth sees you, he will be angry, you run quickly."
As she said that, she stood up and nervously put her ear to the door, as if to confirm whether there was any movement outside.
"It's okay, he can't hear us talking." Kyle smiled and shook his head, "I came to you this time because I want to ask you for help with something very important."
"Important...thing?" Ariana blinked, revealing her unconcealed joy: "Can Ariana help?"
"Of course, no one can do this except you." Kyle said, "Do you want to save your brother?"
Ariana immediately became nervous, "What happened to brother Aberforth?"
As she said, she hurriedly grabbed the door handle and wanted to go out to see.
"It's not Aberforth..." Kyle said hurriedly: "It's another one."
He took Ariana, who had calmed down, to the window.
When Kyle broke in just now, Dumbledore wanted to hide, but for some reason, his feet seemed to be welded to the ground, unable to move a step, and just stood there.
So when Kyle brought Ariana to the window, she saw Dumbledore outside at a glance.
"Albus...brother?" Ariana said softly.
It was unknown whether it was due to family affection or the strong perception of the Silent, but even though Dumbledore had white hair, she recognized him at a glance.
On the other hand, Dumbledore had already cried so hard that his face was already full of tears.
"Are you going to hide again, Professor?" Kyle said.
This time Dumbledore did not choose to escape, he just floated up into the attic.
Ariana first widened her eyes, and then burst into tears.
To be honest, this action even scared Kyle. He could understand Dumbledore crying, but why did Ariana cry...
He tried to ask the reason,
"Brother Albus... died... turned into a flying ghost..." Ali said with a sob, and then continued to cry loudly.
In her cognition, ghosts are white, and Brother Albus has also turned white... Ghosts can fly, and Brother Albus can also fly... So Brother Albus is equal to a ghost.
There is nothing wrong with it.
Kyle twitched his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
However, Dumbledore panicked. Seeing Ariana crying and breathing rapidly, and covered by a layer of black mist, he hurried into the attic, pushed Kyle who was blocking his way, and said softly:
"I'm fine, Ariana..."
"Touch me, I'm still warm." He held Ariana's hand and tried to comfort her.
But I don't know if he had no experience in this area, he kept repeating the same two sentences, clumsily like Neville in the potion class.
But fortunately, after feeling the temperature from the palm of her hand, Ariana really gradually calmed down.
"Brother Albus...really not a ghost?"
"Of course I'm not." Dumbledore shook his head, staring at the girl years ago with tearful eyes.
"I'm sorry... Ariana... I'm sorry."
The girl stretched out her little hand and tried to wipe the tears off her face.
"You'd better use something else, like a handkerchief." Kyle whispered beside him, "He may still have snot on his face."
The little girl stopped her hand immediately, and a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.
Dumbledore glared at Kyle unhappily.
"Don't look at me like that, Professor." Kyle shrugged, "It's mainly because you were too involved just now. Now is really not the time to reminisce."
Kyle walked over, opened the invisibility cloak in his hand, and put it on Ariana without any explanation.
"Wow, it's that magical invisibility cloak." The little girl immediately forgot what happened just now and began to look at her disappearing body excitedly.
"Arianna..." Kyle knelt down and looked at the happy little girl in front of him.
"What's wrong?"
"Your brother Albus is in danger now. He may really turn into a dead ghost at any time."
The next second, Ariana, who was still very happy, cried again.
"Stop talking..." Dumbledore's voice trembled, trying to stop Kyle from continuing, but Kyle ignored him at all and just asked calmly:
"Will you help him?"
"I do," Ariana said firmly.
"But what if the price is that you can never come back?" Kyle continued: "You have to leave here, leave this home, and leave your brother Aberforth."
"I..." Ariana hesitated, "If I miss them, can they come back?"
"No." Kyle tightened the invisibility cloak on Ariana and continued: "You can't come back, even if you miss them again, otherwise your brother Albus will really become a ghost... maybe... It will be worse."
"Stop talking." Dumbledore said painfully again, trying to stop Kyle, but still received no response.
Although the words that followed might make Ariana sad, it was something she had to go through if she wanted to save her life.
"Then you'll be alone, living in a strange place."
"Then I will never see Brother Aberforth?" Ariana held her head in pain, and the black mist representing Obscurus began to surge over her body.
But the miraculous thing is that the invisibility cloak on Ariana's body blocked the black mist. They were tightly imprisoned and could not take shape.
"You can't say that." Kyle thought for a while, "Maybe you can see him again in a hundred years, but before that, you need to force yourself to forget everything here."
The black mist on Ariana's body became even thicker, and some of it had even emerged from the gaps, floating in the air and surging violently.
Kyle frowned. Ariana's reaction was even greater than he expected. If it weren't for the invisibility cloak, I'm afraid the words just now would have caused Obscurus to explode directly.
"Call the gods to protect you!"
A silver-white jellyfish emerged from Kyle's wand, and its long tentacles wrapped around the black mist, trying to disperse them.
The Patronus is the embodiment of hope and the nemesis of all dark matter, and Obscurus is no exception.
But the Obscurus was too strong. Even if it offset some of the black mist that escaped, the pressure on Kyle would be greater than when he faced hundreds of Dementors.
He could only try his best to maintain the patron saint, and at the same time hope that Ariana would wake up soon.
At this moment, a silver phoenix also joined in.
The phoenix flew over Ariana's head, and a warm force enveloped her, like a bonfire in the cold winter.
The black fog gradually disappeared, and Ariana opened her eyes again.
"So, Ariana, have you made a decision?" Kyle was heartbroken and continued to ask.
"I've said enough, shut up!" Dumbledore roared.
The majestic magic power spurted out from his body, causing large spiderweb-like cracks on the walls and ceiling.
"Professor, now is not the time to be soft-hearted, this is the only way to save her life." Kyle did not give in at all, "She must leave here, this is the only way!"
"I know I know……"
Dumbledore's voice suddenly softened, and even contained a hint of pleading.
"You have done a good enough job, can you leave the rest to me... please."
"Are you sure?" Kyle reminded: "This decision requires Ariana to voluntarily give up all her support. It may make her hate you for the rest of her life. I don't care, but you..."
"I have no problem." Dumbledore said calmly, "As long as I can save her."
"In that case... remember to pay attention to the time. It must not exceed ten o'clock."
Kyle took a deep breath, stood up, and decided to leave this time to the siblings.
But he did not choose to leave through the window, but directly opened the door and walked out.
"What happened... Ariana, how are you."
There was a rush of footsteps outside, it was Aberforth.
Dumbledore lost control just now and almost destroyed the whole house with the movement. In this case, even using ear plugs to listen to the curse was useless.
Aberforth, who heard the noise, immediately ran over to check on Ariana, and happened to bump into Kyle who was walking out of the door.
"Who are you!"
Seeing a stranger suddenly appear at home, and he came out of his sister's attic, Aberforth immediately became nervous, and then became furious.
He pulled out his wand without hesitation.
"What did you do to my sister..."
"Everything is forgotten!"
A white light hit Aberforth's forehead. It was obviously a forgetting curse, but its effect was like a repelling curse.
Aberforth didn't even say a word. He flew out with a splash and crawled to the ground motionless.
"Sorry, I can't let you disturb them now."
Kyle let out a long breath and felt much better.
Just now, he had a close contact with the Obscurus, pretended to be a bad guy to scare Ariana, and had to deal with Dumbledore's emotions, which made him feel more stressed and his forehead was throbbing.
Now there is a sandbag offered to him, so why not use it?
Kyle stretched his body, walked over, grabbed Aberforth's collar, dragged him downstairs, and repaired the wall that was cracked by Dumbledore's magic along the way.
Strictly speaking, Aberforth was also responsible for this matter. If he hadn't been so irritable, he wouldn't have fought with Grindelwald.
However, seeing that he helped him many times afterwards, Kyle softened his heart and didn't drag him down.
