Hogwarts Melting Ice Journey

The three of them walked to an oil painting of a silver bowl full of fruits. Petunia stretched out her hand and scratched the pear on it. The pear laughed and then turned into a big green handle.

Penny pulled the door handle and opened the kitchen door. Judging from her consistent movements, she must have entered the kitchen many times.

The three entered the kitchen and were immediately surrounded by a large number of house elves enthusiastically. However, they did not speak first, but all looked at an elderly house elf.

The leading house elf bowed deeply to them: "Welcome the two gentlemen and the lady to the kitchen. May I ask if you need anything?"

Stephen looked at him, feeling a little curious. He did not see humility and caution in this house elf, but he saw respect and propriety.

"Thank you, we just wanted to get some food." Penny proposed the main purpose of this trip.

The old house elf nodded to the elves around him, and they began to take action.

"Oh, did you hear that? They came here to find food from the house elves." "Go, go, go, we have to meet the requirements of the gentlemen and this beautiful lady quickly." The other house elves started talking. We spread out and took a lot of take-away food from the kitchen table, some of which were thoughtfully packaged with magic.

Stephen stared at the old house elf, feeling that this one was particularly special compared to the others.

The old house elf noticed Stephen's gaze, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face: "I think this gentleman may be blaming me, because I am not like other house elves, but standing here doing nothing. Do."

"Oh, I'm sorry, you misunderstood." Stephen shook his head, "I was just wondering why you look special. I think it may be because of your age."

"Dear sir, please allow me to introduce myself first. My name is Laprado, and I am a descendant of that war." Laprado bowed deeply again.

Rowan whispered in Stephen's ear and added: "The war he is talking about should be referring to the goblin rebellion in 1612."

Stephen nodded, indicating that he understood: "So your parents were not house elves at the beginning, but elves."

"I think it should be called a traitor among the elves." Laprado raised his head and looked at Stephen, "That's why my parents stayed in Hogwarts to seek its asylum. I think you should be Mr. Jacob's brother .”

Stephen was a little surprised. He nodded again and looked at Laprado, wondering what he wanted to say.

After confirming Stephen's identity, Laprado bowed again, but this time it was deeper: "Mr. Jacob entrusted me to transfer something to you at the appropriate time."

He snapped his fingers, and Stephen suddenly felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and then he found himself in the kitchen, or to be precise, the kitchen in another time and space.

Stephen saw that he was standing where he was just now, but everyone else was gone. He looked around and determined that he was in the kitchen of Hogwarts.

The door behind him was suddenly opened. Stephen turned and looked behind him. He felt that the person who came in should be Jacob. Stephen observed his movements, and Jacob walked straight past Stephen and towards the depths of the kitchen.

"I think this is in an illusion, so he won't find me." Stephen followed Jacob up, he wanted to know what Jacob was doing.

Stephen saw Jacob take out a pocket watch on the innermost wall of the kitchen, which looked very similar to the one Stephen was carrying. Then Jacob seemed to make some movement, and a few lines of words suddenly appeared in the air.

"Destinies are intertwined, and things will change; time determines the direction, and changes are insignificant." Stephen looked at the sentences that emerged, "Isn't this what I said in my dream? What on earth is Jacob doing?"

He became more and more curious about the whole thing. He took out his pocket watch from the lining and found that his pocket watch seemed to be vibrating, and then Stephen fainted directly.

"Stephen, what's wrong, wake up?" It seemed to be Rowan's voice. Stephen tried to open his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Rowan's dark face.

Stephen turned his head and looked around, and found himself lying on the ground. Penny looked at him with a worried look, and Rowan's expression was full of urgency. Labrador had a look of fear on his face and his body was trembling, while the other house elves were hiding far away.

"What just happened to me?" Stephen tried to get up, but failed. Rowan saw his movements and hurriedly helped him up.

"Labrador just snapped his fingers, and then you fainted. Penny even took out her wand and was about to take action." Rowan explained what just happened.

Stephen shook his head, trying to wake himself up, "Oh, I hope you didn't do anything just now. I'm fine. It's just that what my brother left for me was a bit of a surprise."

Penny looked at Stephen: "Don't worry Stephen, I just saw that Labrador also looked scared, so I stopped. What happened to you just now? Why did you faint suddenly? What is the surprise?"

"I think it might be some kind of magic, right, Laprado?"

"Oh, dear sir, I'm sorry. It's great that you're okay. Laprado almost thought that he had violated Mr. Jacob's commission." Laprado first apologized sincerely, "This is a kind of retrospection magic that can Let people see some memories from before.”

"It's just like a pensieve, but the experience is a little worse." Stephen nodded, indicating that he understood.

He looked at Rowan and Petunia: "I think we need to get some food and go to a quieter place to talk about this."

The three of them took the food that had been prepared, left the kitchen and went upstairs to the Room of Requirement. Penny was excited to see the room, which she had never heard from anyone.

"So when you said to keep it secret, you were referring to the Room of Requirement."

Stephen nodded: "Yes, this room still needs to be kept secret until the most critical time."

If everyone knew about it, there would be no place to train the future saviors. I'm afraid that this organization would be ruined by Umbridge as soon as they started training.

Penny smiled at Stephen: "I will keep this secret. Don't we still have an agreement?"

The three of them sat on the sofa in the Room of Requirement. Stephen began to explain the vision he had just seen. Rowan and Petunia both expressed their wonder about the pocket watch.

"So Stephen, what do you think this pocket watch represents?" Rowan asked.

"I don't know. I think this matter is not within our current capabilities. Even if we understand it, there is nothing we can do." Stephen would not express his conjecture. Even in the magical world, it sounded too Bizarre.

Stephen paused: "I think the most important thing for us now is to train ourselves."

"You're right, I think this is a good place to practice." Penny agreed with Stephen's point of view, "But you seem to have been training here for a long time."

"It's only a few days. It's not long since school has just started, and I don't have time every day."

After chatting, the three of them started practicing, and Stephen just fulfilled his promise to teach Penny how to cast spells.
