The Soul of Hogwarts Across Worlds

Chapter 42 Magic Mirror
Melda, who was woken up by the twins, leaned on the bed with a sigh of relief, and looked at everyone with sleepy eyes.

He was so busy last night that he didn't go to bed until late.

In addition to writing letters to several big shots, it is also to prepare Christmas gifts for Hermione Ron and the others.

Especially Hermione's gift, he has put a lot of thought into it.

After all, it's a bit hard to find, and there aren't many places in London that sell it.

But in the end he asked someone to find the set of books from a certain bookstore in Chinatown.

There are five volumes in total.An Anthology of a Great Eastern Man.

I believe she will like it.

"What are you arguing about inside?" Percy Weasley poked his head through the crack of the door with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

"Harry, Melda hurry up," Fred urged.

"What?"

Melda has not recovered yet, he is still in a state of half-consciousness.

"Christmas is a time for family reunion," George said.

"The Christmas banquet in the auditorium is about to begin."

"what?"

Melda was dragged by several people with a ignorant expression, and was dragged to the auditorium.

The auditorium at this time is completely different from usual.There are all kinds of food on the table.

Plump roast turkeys, hills of roast meat and boiled potatoes, platters of delicious little sausages, bowls of buttered peas, plates of thick, thick gravy.

After sitting down, Harry and Fred smoked a color pack firecracker together, ignited it like a cannon bombing, spit out a burst of blue smoke, and then engulfed them all, and from it exploded a Rear Admiral hat, and a few lively mice.

At the guest table, Dumbledore had exchanged his pointy wizard's hat for a bonnet decorated with flowers, and he was giggling happily when Professor Flitwick had just told him a joke.She doesn't have the airs of the strongest white wizard at all.

After lunch.

Harry and the Weasley brothers had a snowball fight on the playground, had a crazy afternoon and had a great time.

And Melda didn't take part in their childish play, he just watched from the sidelines.

Watching them play, watching them lie in the snow after exhaustion and laughing wildly.

Such a relaxed and happy day continued into the evening.

Maybe it was because she was so exhausted from making such a fuss that day, and Melda couldn't keep her eyes open when her head touched the pillow.

Before he knew it, he had fallen asleep.

until
Melda didn't know exactly when Harry woke her up.He only remembered that it was still dark at that time.

"I warn you, Miss Evans. If you have no legitimate reason, I can guarantee that all the liquid you will see tomorrow will be blue." Melda threatened angrily.

"I found a mirror," said Harry.

"A magic mirror."

Mirror?Melda understood and guessed what the side Harry met was.

Counting the time, Harry was indeed the one who discovered it during this period of time.

------

Without waiting for Melda's consent, Harry pulled him and Ron into the Invisibility Cloak, left the Gryffindor dormitory, and started going around in various circles along the dark corridors.

This circle went straight for more than ten minutes.

Just when Ron couldn't stand it and planned to go back.

"Here." Suddenly Harry said with surprise on his face.

He keenly found a wooden door hidden in the corner.Then he hurried over with his little friends and pushed open the door.

"See? It's there." Harry took off the Invisibility Cloak from his shoulders, and quickly ran to the mirror.

"A mirror?" Ron looked at the mirror in front of him strangely.

It looks tattered.You can tell it's not worth anything at a glance.

"Mirror of Erised." Melda carefully touched the mirror in front of her.

It reached ceiling height, with a golden frame, and supported by two claw-shaped feet.

And on top of it is engraved the classic quote "Eris Stella Uhru Aitubi Kafru Aithang Voorhees."

"Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi."

Flip it over: "It shows us nothing more or less than the deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts. What I show is not your mirror image, but your inner desire."

"Melda, do you know this mirror?" Harry asked excitedly.

"Well, this is an outstanding magic treasure." Melda spoke highly of the Mirror of Erised.

The reason is simple, any wizard standing in front of it will see what he wants to see in his heart.

Even Dumbledore, a master of Occlumency, couldn't stop the Mirror of Erised from snooping, which shows how powerful its magic is.

"Look there." Melda pointed to the lettering on the top of the mirror and said, "Turn it over and read."

Harry was not a fool, he followed Melda's point of view and quickly understood the true function of this mirror.

"In other words, I can see what I want to see in my heart from this mirror?"

Ron stood in front of the magic mirror, and sure enough, he saw himself as the male chairman of the student union, holding the Quidditch trophy in his hand, Percy, George, Fred, his parents, and everyone in Gryffindor They all looked at him proudly.

"I saw that I became the Head Boy of the Student Council and won the Quidditch Trophy. Cool."

"How about you, Harry?"

"Me? I saw my parents."

------

The Christmas holiday is very long.

Melda didn't see Harry all day the next day, while he stayed in the library, continuing with his own plan to vacate the Hogwarts library.

So on the third day.

The same goes for the fourth day.

Until the night of the fourth day, Melda was really worried about Harry.

"He has been in front of that broken mirror for three days. He stayed there except eating and sleeping." Melda said to Ron.

Originally, he thought that Harry had never met his parents, so it didn't matter to let him see.

But he can't spend all his time in that kind of nothingness.The person in the mirror will never be resurrected.

"That's right! We can't go on like this." Ron also felt that his brother would be ruined if this went on.Then act immediately.

In this way, Melda led Ron all the way to the old house along the dark corridor with ease.

After opening the gate again, Melda was surprised to see that someone came earlier than the two of them.

It's Dumbledore.He seemed to be talking to Harry again.

"Oh, Melda?" Dumbledore noticed someone approaching.

"Professor, we're here for Harry."

"I know." Dumbledore said with a smile: "Oh! By the way, I like the wool socks you gave me very much."

"Of course it would be better if the colors were brighter."
