Chapter 493
That night, Scott and the others stayed outside the castle for a long time.
Haven't seen each other in a while, and they each seem to have a lot to talk about.
After talking about Voldemort, they talked about the Triwizard Tournament, Scott's study and life in France, and the new things that happened at Hogwarts in the past period of time.
During the period, Roger tried to connect to Scott's [Magic Mirror] communication.
George said, "Oh, I think Fred found Roger because he couldn't communicate with you."
Scott originally wanted to hang up and block it directly, but he was afraid that something would really happen over there, so he picked it up.
But as expected, they saw Fred's face next to Roger.
"Damn it!" Fred yelled, "what the hell happened..."
"Okay, they're all right."
Scott decisively hung up the communication and blocked Roger's [magic phone].
Afterwards, several people continued to chat about the topic they had just talked about, until Filch found them with a magic lamp, and finally they returned to the castle.
After saying goodbye to George and returning to the common room, Scott saw Qiu waiting here.
Qiu handed a letter to Scott.
"Scott, give it to Cedric for me."
"Oh, I'd be glad to be a messenger."
Scott took the letter and shook it in his hand.
"I think Cedric will be very happy, you've got him down, Cho."
He said in a sarcastic tone.
"That Cedric guy, he didn't even invite a partner to the Yule Ball."
"Oh……"
Qiu's little sisters cupped their faces and booed, and giggled again.
Qiu laughed generously, "I only found out about this later, I didn't expect... I mean, before the Christmas ball, he asked me, and I didn't forbid him to find a dance partner."
"You've made a lot of money, Cho. Cedric is not only a model student, but a model boyfriend."
Marietta Aikemo also touched Qiu's shoulder and said enviously.
"Oh, you must have some love secrets, please share with us!"
The other girls were also envious.
"I don't have that kind of thing..."
Watching a few girls laughing and playing away, Eddie touched Scott's arm, "It's really you, they actually believed it? I didn't expect Cedric to be a cunning guy."
Scott said with a smile: "You think I'm lying for him? No, I'm telling the truth."
"Are you kidding?" Eddie's eyes widened. "That's the Yule Ball!"
Scott nodded affirmatively.
Eddie was even more surprised. "Oh, he can really put on a show, I mean Cedric."
"He's just being loyal to love," Milton retorted. "I think it's the right thing to do."
"Stop messing around, Milton." Eddie waved his hand, "That's the Christmas ball! Sitting alone in that kind of place? You'll definitely look like an idiot!"
Scott, who was sitting on the sofa, heard this and glanced up at him.
"I only did one opening dance," he said, "and the rest of the time I sat with Cedric like two idiots."
"No, you're different, Scott."
Eddie smiled awkwardly.
"After all, your dance partner is Fleur Delacour, the warrior of Beauxbatons, who is also the most beautiful girl there. That is enough for everyone to envy you."
"Thank you."
Scott gave him a standard smirk, and turned to look at the stairs leading to the female student's dormitory.
Luna was walking down with a beautiful little castle in her arms.
"This is the home I made for Celeno."
She put the little castle on the table.
Looking at this exquisite and beautiful castle, Scott can't help but reflect, is it too rough to put the "summoned beast" directly in his pocket?
Luna bent down and called softly.
"Seleno, look who this is?"
A small figure pushed open the door above the castle and appeared on the balcony.
"Squeak, Scott!"
Celeno let out a scream, flapped her transparent wings and flew in front of Scott, landing in the palm of his outstretched hand.
"Long time no see, how are you, Celeno."
Scott smiled softly.
"Oh, I'm fine, I like Luna very much, and I like the house she gave me..."
Celeno said dancing and flying to Luna's side again.
"I like you too, Celeno."
Luna smiled happily.
Scott chatted with Celeno and Luna for a while, and then "visited" Celeno's home-this gave him a sense of déjà vu that he was playing with a little girl in a dollhouse.
Milton and Celeno can also talk, and he has even written several songs for Celeno.
Only Eddie was a bit out of place.
He looked at Celeno as if he were Galleon, and kept whispering to Scott to sell more "toys" like this.
Not surprisingly, he gained the long-lost [Milton's eyes].
Before returning to the dormitory, Luna pulled Scott aside and watched him quietly for a while.
Seeing the subtle changes in Luna's eyes, Scott understood that her magical eyes seemed to see something again.
"You're going to have an adventure, Scott."
Luna said softly in an erratic tone.
Scott remembered his plan to go to the tower of the extension of the earth's core to retrieve the [Heart of the Sacred Tree] on the summer solstice.
"and many more."
Luna turned abruptly and ran for the stairs.
"What happened?" Eddie asked, turning his head, "You confessed to her?"
"Go away," Scott said.
"Ok."
Eddie pretended to turn his head away, and kept peeking at Scott's reaction.
Scott ignored him.
After a while, Luna ran down the stairs again.
"Give you this."
She thrust a small white animal skull into Scott's hand.
"This is……"
Scott looked at the skull in his hand.
The skull itself was not uncommon, but the surface of this skull was unusually smooth, even emitting a faint white light.
The weirdest thing is that there are two red beans embedded in the eye sockets of the skull.
"My dad bought it from a Peruvian wizard," Luna said. "A vicuna skull inlaid with big acacia beans. The Peruvian wizard said it can resist curses."
Scott felt it carefully, and there was indeed a slight magical power in this skull.
But whether it can resist the curse... is hard to say.
"Thank you."
He put the skull away.
Anyway, it was Luna's kindness.
Just like the harassing horsefly siphon, aura thruster, and airship Lee she gave him last time...
It's hard to say whether it will work, but it is indeed a thought.
"In this way, your adventure will not be in crisis." Luna nodded, "You will get what you want."
"I guess so," Scott said with a smile.
"Then, good night."
Luna waved her hand, ran to the table and picked up Celeno's castle, and ran back to the dormitory again.
"Come on, let's go back too."
Scott greeted, and returned to the long-lost dormitory with Eddie and Milton.
Eddie was very curious about the "gift" Luna gave him, so Scott showed him the weird vicuna skull with red bean eyes.
"Luna said this is a prop to resist the curse?"
Eddie looked at the strange shape of the skull and said with a frown.
"I think it's the curse itself."
Milton also took a closer look, "Although the shape is a bit weird, there is no bad breath."
Scott shrugged his shoulders, sat down at the desk, and took out all four "summoned beasts" and placed them on the desk.
"Ok."
He whispered to the "summoned beasts".
"Although it won't be as beautiful as Celeno's castle, I decided to make a shelter for you."
The "summoned beasts" understood what he said, and they cried out excitedly.
Scott thought for a while, and took out a small wooden box from the deformed lizard skin bag.
This wooden box is exactly the one where Lucio put the materials when he gave him the four materials.
"It's just right, there are four grids here, and there is a breath that you are familiar with." He muttered in a low voice, "As long as..."
Before he finished speaking, the four little guys approached the box, and Edgar and Horus even flew up.
After a while, they consciously found their respective grids and stuffed themselves into them.
"..."
Scott watched this scene speechlessly.
"So cute."
"Looks like a cute toy box now."
Milton and Eddie, who moved behind him, commented.
"Do not."
Scott picked up the small wooden box and dumped the four little ones on the table.
"I haven't started the transformation yet."
With that said, he drew out his wand and began to cast the Untraceable Stretching Charm.
"Scott..."
Milton lowered his voice like a thief.
"This... It is illegal to use the Untraceable Stretching Curse privately."
"I know."
Scott poked his wand into the lattice of the box to check the size.
"But sometimes we always do small things that are illegal for convenience."
Thinking about it carefully, he has already done countless illegal things, the so-called debt is too heavy...
"Come on."
Eddie said nonchalantly.
"There are so many Death Eaters using the Unforgivable Curse that the Ministry of Magic didn't put them all in Azkaban."
"Makes sense."
As Scott said, he tore another piece of parchment, put the note into the grid, and picked up the wand again.
This time, he used the transfiguration technique to turn those notes into miniature landscapes that were scaled down in proportion.
The grid belonging to Sirin is coral reef, the grid belonging to Gorzan is desert Gobi, the grid belonging to Edgar is volcanic rock, and the grid belonging to Horus is dense forest.
After finishing all this, Scott reached out to pick up the four little guys, put them into their respective grids, and then leaned over the small wooden box to observe.
Since the grid has been expanded by the traceless stretching spell, the space inside is big enough for a few little guys, and they immediately started having fun as soon as they entered.
Sirin filled his grid with water and began to swim freely. Gorzan went straight into the soil, and Edgar and Horus were flying around.
Scott found materials and made several mini magic lamps embedded inside the box lid, and finally put the lid on.
"Will they be unable to breathe?" Milton asked worriedly.
Scott stood up and stretched.
"Don't worry, the boxes aren't sealed, and they're not real creatures."
"Damn the Ministry of Magic."
Eddie stared closely at the small wooden box.
"If they don't control the Untraceable Stretching Curse, this is a business opportunity that will definitely make money."
Scott couldn't help but rolled his eyes when he heard that.
"I went to take a shower."
He found a change of clothes and left the bedroom with the toiletries.
After taking a shower, lying on the long-lost, familiar bed, Scott couldn't help but sigh comfortably.
"I thought, I'll get a good night's sleep..."
He whispered something and fell asleep without knowing it.
I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but that night, he dreamed of that skull.
After waking up the next day, although he had forgotten the specific content of the dream, a scene in the dream was still fresh in his memory——
It was a deep and pure darkness, just like his dark illusion.
That weird skull became the only light in the darkness.
Unlike the real thing, in the dream, the skull turned into a transparent crystal, emitting a warm glow as a whole.
Not a gleaming shimmer, but a more intense, pure white light.
Of course, the eyes of the skull are still red, like some kind of red crystal that can emit light.
Sitting on the bed, Scott thoughtfully looked at the skull on the bookshelf beside the bed.
He got up from the bed and put the skull into the shapeshifting lizard skin bag.
After thinking for a while, he found another shape-shifting lizard skin bag that hadn't cast the traceless stretching spell, and put the small wooden box containing the "summoned beast" into it.
Finally, he hung two shapeshifting lizard pouches side by side on his belt.
After washing up, he said goodbye to Milton and Eddie who hadn't gotten up yet, left the Ravenclaw Tower, and came to Dumbledore's office alone.
"Let's go."
Dumbledore was waiting for him.
"Let's go to Beauxbatons and have breakfast with them."
The industrious Phoenix Fox took the two of them to far away France and appeared directly in the hall on the first floor of the tower.
At this time, the hall was empty.
"Oh, Professor, I think they must have slept very late last night."
Scott said something with a smile, and sat down at the long table.
Dumbledore also nodded with a smile and sat at the head.
The house elves quickly brought them breakfast.
When Scott was almost full, other people came down from the second floor one after another.
"Oh! Scott!"
"Professor Dumbledore!"
Soon, everyone gathered around the two of them, asking questions in a hurry.
"I heard you went back to Hogwarts yesterday?"
"In the end what happened?"
"Professor, did you take him back?"
"Oh damn..."
"You should pay for your actions."
Both Fred and Roger stared at Scott "viciously".
Scott looked at the dark circles under the eyes of the two of them, and suddenly laughed.
He ignored them, but took out Cho's letter from his pocket and handed it to Cedric.
"Cedric, a letter from Cho."
"Oh, thank you."
Cedric took the letter quickly, and couldn't help showing a crooked smile on his face.
At this moment, Dumbledore put down the knife and fork in his hand.
"Everyone sit down first." He said kindly.
Soon, everyone sat down and looked at him expectantly, waiting for an answer.
"Let's have breakfast first, and we'll talk after we're done." Dumbledore said with a smile.
The faces of the people whose expectations were in vain instantly collapsed.
"No!" Fred immediately protested loudly, "We want to know what happened yesterday!"
Dumbledore was still smiling.
"Of course, after breakfast, I will explain to you."
Scott swore he had never seen such a "difficult" breakfast.
