Dumbledore looked at Glenn who was suddenly silent, with a look of interest on his face.
Although Morgana was a little excited, she still kept quiet and understanding and did not make any noise.
Glenn pondered for a long time and exhaled softly.
"Actually..." Glenn slowly revealed one of his trump cards.
"I'm a metamorphmagus..."
Morgana beside her looked a little surprised, but Dumbledore remained calm, only showing a slightly surprised expression.
"That's it." The old fox said with a smile, "In this way, some of my doubts will be answered."
"What doubts?" Morgana asked subconsciously.
"For example..." Dumbledore explained to her considerately, "why it was Glenn who ruined Professor Rick's plan in the Ravenclaw lounge, but it was Shelia who was under the Imperius Curse. Mr. De."
Robert Hilliard fell under the Imperius Curse of a mysterious dark wizard.
This matter had spread throughout Hogwarts Castle a month ago, and Morgana had naturally heard of this rumor.
"You mean..." Bingxue's smart girl said clearly, "That night, Glenn disguised himself as that person?"
Dumbledore looked at Glenn with smiling eyes, indicating that he should answer the question himself.
Glenn nodded.
Dumbledore continued to ask: "If I guess correctly, the person who knocked out Mr. Hilliard should also be you, right?"
"To be precise, he should have been the one who knocked him unconscious..." Glenn said with some embarrassment, "I disguised myself as him again at that time. In this case, even if Professor Rick is good at Legilimency, You can only see Hilliard defeating himself."
"It's a plan with almost no loopholes." Dumbledore commented, "As long as the news that you are a Metamorphomagus is not exposed, no one will doubt you."
Glenn scratched his head in embarrassment: "But I didn't expect that it would cause Hilliard such misery..."
"Don't mind it. If you hadn't made it right in time, things might have gotten out of hand." Dumbledore winked at him and said.
Glenn couldn't help but feel ashamed.
"So," Dumbledore straightened his expression, "do you have any ideas about the next step?"
Glenn was about to speak, but was interrupted by Morgana's voice.
"I thought... I could pretend I found the book, go make peace with Patricia, and then give the book to her."
Dumbledore was noncommittal and turned his attention to Glenn.
Glenn pondered for a moment and then spoke.
"It's not impossible to pretend to be reconciled... Because of the existence of that seed, it's barely justified. But..." He changed the subject, "In this case, two more problems will arise."
"What kind of question?" Dumbledore said with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Glenn glanced at Morgana and explained: "First of all, Morgana is a Gryffindor student. How could she find Ravenclaw's mysterious library so easily?"
"Actually, I have a way to explain this..."
The girl turned red for no reason and spoke hesitantly.
Glenn didn't know what was going on, but Dumbledore showed a meaningful expression.
"After returning from the ruins, Patricia told me that I need to choose a guardian knight..." She obviously knew the meaning of the guardian knight. She quietly raised her head and glanced at Glenn, the blush on her face becoming more and more obvious, " I just need to tell her that I have chosen a Ravenclaw student to be a knight and ask him to help me get the book.
Glenn was still concentrating on the plan, so he didn't notice anything unusual about her, nor did he hear the underlying meaning behind her words.
"There is another question." He said slowly, "If Professor Rick has prepared other parts, he will probably start the ceremony as soon as possible. I am worried that we may not be able to stop it in time."
Dumbledore nodded: "That's true. If the ceremony starts, I'm afraid there will be no chance to use Fox's feathers."
The office suddenly became quiet, and Morgana looked at the two of them blankly.
"or..."
Glenn hesitated and said a method he had thought of for a long time.
"I can pretend to be Morgana and give the book to Professor Rick." He pursed his lips, "I don't have the so-called seed, so even if she performs the ritual immediately, it will definitely fail. "
"No! It's too dangerous!"
Dumbledore was about to speak, but was interrupted by Morgana's voice.
The girl frowned, looking a little excited, and shook her head firmly.
"If found out, she will kill you..."
"I personally don't recommend that you take this risk, Glenn." Dumbledore also said, "As far as I know, Professor Rick is a very smart witch. It is difficult to deceive him based on his disguised appearance alone. than her insight."
"Yes!" Morgana nodded repeatedly.
Dumbledore continued: "But it would be a good idea to use your ability to transform into a Magus at the beginning of the ceremony."
Glenn shook his head slightly at Morgana, who still wanted to say something, and gave her a reassuring smile.
"Then how can we let Professor Rick take this book smoothly?" He turned to Dumbledore and pointed to the Grimoire on his desk.
Dumbledore opened the cover and found the page recording the ceremony: "As far as I know, the most suitable day to perform this ceremony is Easter two days later. I believe she should be more anxious than us at the moment. We just I need a little help in her search.”
"What help?" Glenn asked subconsciously.
Dumbledore smiled slightly and snapped his fingers.
"Crack~"
There was another familiar crisp sound, and a small figure appeared in the office.
"Hello, Professor Dumbledore!" He first bowed his luggage to Dumbledore, then turned to Glenn and Morgana, "We meet again, Master Glenn, and this beautiful lady!"
"I think you have already met Mr. Rooney, right?"
Dumbledore said hello to the apparated house elf, and then spoke to the two of them.
Glenn suddenly understood.
"You mean to let Rooney take Professor Rick into Ravenclaw's private library?"
The balding elf Rooney also grinned at Glenn. : "That's it, Master Glenn."
"In fact, the magic of elves' magic is no worse than that of wizards, and is even slightly better in some aspects. It's just that due to people's blindness, few people are able to realize this now."
Dumbledore glanced at Glenn and said with a smile.
Although Morgana was a little excited, she still kept quiet and understanding and did not make any noise.
Glenn pondered for a long time and exhaled softly.
