Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 211 Ghost Mystery
Connor temporarily let Alice go, and walked to the principal's office with Pepper. The black magician girl...Pepper was humming a ditty along the way.

"You look happy, Pepper."

"Of course! As I said, I will be happy every time you come back to school!"

Connor couldn't see that this sweet-talking "girl" could be the former Peeves.

Connor wiped off the non-existent cold sweat and asked, "Has your... appearance not been finalized yet?"

Pepper has said before that he will eventually settle into one shape, but after all this time it seems like it can still change at will.

"No, I can still change my shape at will, maybe... I will be shapeless in the future, hahaha."

"It's good, we can recognize you anyway."

"However, I think I also have a fixed range of appearance. It should be the appearance of your monster card. It will be very difficult to change into another shape, but not into a card."

"Is that so..." Connor was thoughtful, and he had already arrived in front of the principal's office.

"Are you going in too, Pepper."

"Of course, I'm going to bring you to the headmaster. Well, I was called in, too. The headmaster seems to want to see me."

Connor nodded and walked into the principal's office together.

"Hi, Connor, and Peeves!"

"Oh, Fat Friar, I told you, my name is now Pepper!"

The black magician girl frowned, and said dissatisfiedly to a pudgy ghost in the principal's office.

"Hahaha, they're all the same, they're all the same, they're all the same name."

"Hello, fat monk." Connor also greeted with a smile. He didn't expect to see this ghost in the office.

"Hello, Connor." The fat monk responded with a smile.

The Fat Friar is the ghost of Hufflepuff House, no one knows his real name, he always says the clergy should forget their names or something.

Connor didn't know much about him. After all, he ran up and down every day. If it wasn't for meals and classes, he would rarely go downstairs. He had nothing to do with the fat monk who was always active underground.

Except that he asked the fat monk about the news when he wanted to know about the church, but the fat monk didn't provide Connor with any useful information.

So Connor's understanding of the fat monk is roughly: a simple and honest ghost who claims to have been a Catholic priest and has always been dissatisfied with his failure to become a cardinal.

I don't know why he is in the principal's office...

"Hello, Professor Dumbledore, do you have any orders?" Connor asked.

"Well, Connor, how was your vacation?"

"Very good, professor."

"That's good. In fact, the fat monk wants to meet with you. I have something to say to... Pepper."

"Ah I?"

Both Connor and Pepper looked a little dazed, not knowing what was going on. Pepper hesitated and floated to Dumbledore's side, while Connor looked at the fat monk curiously.

"Fat monk, I don't know... Is there anything you can do with me?"

"Actually, I was also entrusted by others to pass on a message to others." The fat monk smiled and said:
"Connor, you know that the Holy See has been expelled from the UK, including your Professor Sable."

"Yes, I see." Connor nodded, and looked at the fat monk in surprise. Didn't expect it to be a matter of the Holy See?Is the fat monk really a monk? ?
"Hehehe, don't look at me like that, I'm not from the Holy See, I was executed by the Church for heresy back then."

The fat monk was still smiling, and seemed to be casually saying terrible things.

Connor knew that this fat monk was from the same era as Gryffindor, a student who graduated from Hogwarts and became a priest, but was finally executed by the church and became the ghost of Hogwarts?
No matter how you look at it, it looks like there is a big melon that can be eaten...

"However, the church in the past is different from the present one. Everyone in the past will feel relieved to see the church today..." The fat monk sighed softly, then shook his head with a smile and said:

"Anyway, I used to be a priest. Because of this background, your Professor Sabley asked me to send you a message..."

"Oh, please tell me." Connor didn't have much ill feeling toward the Holy See today, it was just a special wizarding organization. After knowing that their entire army could not take down a school, Connor didn't care much about them. up.

"It's like this. The Holy See hopes that you can add elements about the Holy See to your monster cards in the future. The Holy See is willing to pay a lot of money for this. In fact, this is one of Sable's main purposes, but unfortunately he hasn't had time yet. You have already left the school if you opened your mouth."

The fat monk said in a relaxed tone: "Of course, I'm just passing on a message. It's up to you whether you agree or not. Whether you agree or not, the matter has nothing to do with me."

"Eh..." Connor was stunned for a moment, so the Holy See still had such a plan to come to him to advertise for them?No wonder the pope was willing to help save Alice, so he was selling his own face?

This is not a big deal, since the entrustment of the Egyptian government has not been handled well.

However, the card... Connor couldn't help but look at Dumbledore.

I don't know what Dumbledore and Pepper said, but after noticing Connor's gaze, Dumbledore also looked over and said, "You can decide for yourself, Connor, don't worry about the elves, your card There should be no more elves born."

"Eh? Why?" Connor asked a little surprised. Are elves all one-time non-renewable resources?

"The [Mystery] of your card is difficult to breed elves after this consumption. Of course, there are more specific reasons. I will tell you about this later. In short, you don't have to worry about your monster card giving birth to a second elf. , As for whether to agree to the cooperation of the Holy See, it is up to you to decide."

Connor hesitated and said, "This is a business matter, let my grandfather decide."

"Alright, it's up to you." Dumbledore nodded to Pepper and said, "I'll leave this to you, Pepper."

"No problem! Principal." The black magician girl saluted delicately.

Regardless of the shady deal that the old coin and the troublemaker had made, Connor wanted Dumbledore to help him with one thing.

Connor stepped forward, raised his neck, and said, "Professor Dumbledore, can you help me untie this collar around my neck?"

"Oh? Hasn't Alice untied it for you yet?"

"...that idiot doesn't know the spell to break."

"I can't help it. The Chain of Fate is a very powerful magic item, and it cannot be destroyed by force."

Connor lowered his head weakly, and when he was about to accept this fact and fall into the abyss of darkness, a beam of light shone down.

"Chain of fate? Are you talking about chain of fate?"

Connor turned sharply to look at the fat monk who was speaking, and asked nervously, "Fat monk, do you have a way to untie it?"

"Huh? I haven't." The fat monk shook his head: "But I know someone who might have a solution."

"Who! Please tell me!" Connor was so excited that he almost wanted to hug the fat monk.

The fat monk said with a smile: "Hehehe, you know this person too..."

"Bloody Baron, the ghost of Slytherin."

"The shackles wrapped around him are the chains of fate."
