Ashes of Hogwarts

Ash led the fireproof girl through the corridors of Hogwarts.

As a historic school with a history of more than a thousand years, Hogwarts can be said to retain its original medieval style.Therefore, this castle has a very similar architectural design and color to Lothrik City, which did not arouse the sigh of the fire prevention woman.

Instead, it was the moving figures in the portrait and the ghosts hiding and watching in the distance that attracted the attention of the fire prevention woman.

"Are they souls? But the feeling is fundamentally different." Those portraits can be seen as magic items at a glance, even if their personalities are the result of years of training by the owner, so they seem to be items with souls , essentially it’s just a painting.

But ghosts are different.

Dumbledore once said that the ghosts in Hogwarts are a special state formed by the combination of the obsession with survival and the soul after death due to strong unwillingness.

If that's the case, they are still essentially souls.

But, if you go by what the fire prevention girl said...

The reason for the formation of the ghost is intriguing.

Burying his doubts deep in his heart, Ash decided to set aside some time to investigate.

When he came to his office, he opened the door and walked in with the fire prevention girl.

Today is the weekend, no one will bother me.The younger students are busy enjoying their break, as for the fifth grade, the only one who may have a problem.

I guess I am swimming in the sea of ​​questions now.

"This is our temporary home, little sister."

Ash began to introduce Hogwarts to the Fireproof Girl.In some ways, Hogwarts, which still maintains the customs of primitive wizarding society, does not need much introduction at all, because there is nothing here that modern civilized society has.

In the next few days, when Ash has free time, he plans to take the Fireproof Girl to visit the Muggle world. Although the UK in the 90s was far from what it was before Ash traveled through time, it was definitely very attractive to country girls like Fireproof Girl who had never experienced the city.

In the rest room, the fire prevention girl sat quietly aside.

After experiencing the initial excitement, the atmosphere between Ash and the Fireproof Girl gradually became awkward.

Before this, the two of them had never been in the same room so closely, even though they were already dependent on each other for life and death.

"Forehead……"

Ash scratched his head and prepared to find some topics to chat with the fireproof girl.But every time I see the calm and quiet face of the fire prevention girl, I don't know how to say the words that come to my lips.

The fireproof girl was even more well-behaved. Even if Ash was tossing and turning in the Fire Sacrifice and doing all kinds of weird things, she never said anything.

Because she is just a companion to Lord Ashes.

Fortunately, this atmosphere did not last long. When it was just getting dark, a knock on the door rang from outside the house.

The fire girl opened the door, and there stood a house elf wearing a pillowcase outside.

Looking at the strangest creature in front of her, the fireproof girl had a trace of doubt in her eyes.

"Hello, are you Professor Lothric's companion? Principal Dumbledore and the professors have prepared a welcome party in the Hufflepuff lounge. Principal Dumbledore asked Riel to inform Professor Lothric. Go with your companions to participate.”

The fireproof girl looked at Ash who was sitting by the bed. Whether he went or not was definitely decided by Master Ashes.

"Thank you Riel, please go back and tell Principal Dumbledore that we will be there in a moment."

Although it's a welcome party, it's hard to go directly. At least you have to make some preparations.

After receiving the reply, Riel closed the door.With a crackling sound, the elf apparated and left the office.

"He disappeared. Is this what Master Ashes said, a different kind of magic?"

Feeling the disappearance of the soul's aura at the door, the fireproof woman turned to Ash and asked.

As Lord Ashes said, this world is full of surprises.

"Okay, how much do you think? In two days I will take you to Ollivander's wand shop to buy a wand, and then teach you how to do magic." Ash stood up from the bed, and he took out a pure white set from the closet. Putting on the wizard robe with flame patterns, he waved his wand at the fire-proof woman.

"Restored to like new condition, clean and new."

The clothes of the fire-proof girl are themselves a kind of ceremonial robe, but they have experienced too much wind and frost, and they look a bit shabby. Moreover, they forgot to prepare clothes for the fire-proof girl, so they can only repair the original clothes.

But I have to say that the black fireproof female robe matches Ash's white wizard robe very well.

The Hufflepuff lounge is very close to the kitchen, so generally speaking, professors will temporarily commandeer the Hufflepuff lounge for any private gatherings.

Holding the fireproof girl's hand, the two slowly walked towards Hufflepuff.

Along the way, the portraits saluted the two of them one after another. Even the armors who usually guarded the castle would bend down like them when they saw the two, their masks clicking as if they were saying something.

"Lord Ashes, are they magical creatures? But why don't I feel their breath of life?"

"Magic cannot give life to objects, but it can give them intelligence and mobility." Ash winked at the fireproof woman, and he boldly scratched her palm.

"So they are not essentially living things. If we must say it, then it is more appropriate to call them alchemical products. This is exactly different from our power. We can give life to others, but we cannot transfer wisdom from theirs. Wake up in your body.”

"It's very interesting. In fact, many people in their world are pursuing eternal life, but eternal life is easily available to us. They have no idea how painful it is to live simply for the sake of living."

"After all, if they haven't experienced it, they naturally have no way of knowing." The fireproof girl squeezed her hand, but in the end it was useless to pull it out of Ash's big palm, "Just like me, if I hadn't met Lord Ashes, I'm afraid In the end, they will just become like those living corpses, inhumane and silent."

"This world is beautiful and gorgeous. The process of life is a journey. Eternal life makes our journey infinitely distant, but we still have each other."

Ash racked his brains to come up with such a touching sentence. He raised his head and his eyes fell on a huge fruit plate painting.

"I think we're here."

He reached out and scratched a pear on the painting, and the pear instantly turned into a doorknob.

Some time ago, Ash would go to the kitchen to eat secretly every night.I am already very familiar with opening this door.

Ash opened the door and the two walked into the kitchen.

The kitchen leads directly to the Hufflepuff lounge, without having to crawl through the bottom of the barrel like the little wizards do.

It was dark in the lounge, and not even the bonfire was lit.

The moment the two of them took a break, a burst of fire exploded from the sky.

"welcome!"

Dumbledore said kindly, leading a group of professors.
