Hiding in Hogwarts as a professor

Chapter 62 Dumbledore’s temptation

Tver now indeed has the strength to break through the chessboard.

It's just that he doesn't plan to steal the magic stone yet. First, Quirrell is in very poor health now and is not even in a state to charge into battle for him.

The second reason is that he still needs to understand and digest the magic power Helga "left".

So in the week before the holiday, he canceled all unnecessary activities and focused on his experience in the Forbidden Forest.

After this period of digestion, his understanding of the power of magic finally reached a higher level.

It is incredible for a wizard of his level to make such great progress.

Moreover, the power of magic has been improved. Now he can even use the pressure spell to crush people to death!

According to estimates, in terms of pure magical power, he can already compete with Dumbledore holding the Elder Wand.

Of course, even if this was the case, he would not miss the weekly Transfiguration study with Dumbledore.

After all, the gap in magic concepts can not only be made up by power - magic is not a gun. Compared with power, its greatest feature is its various strange magic effects.

I’m here to criticize Voldemort’s classmates by name!

On the first day of the vacation, Tver did not leave the school with the students, but came to the principal's office as promised.

Dumbledore was sitting in his seat as usual, fiddling with something in his hands with interest on his face. It was obvious that he had been waiting for him for some time.

"Good evening, Principal Dumbledore." Tweel greeted aloud.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. I didn't expect that I have already had so much luggage to pack in less than four months since I came to school."

He sat down on the chair familiarly, but also noticed what Dumbledore was studying just now——

Magic stone!

The real magic stone!

There was no need for Tver to explore it. The fluctuations of magic power above were extremely obvious. Just the vitality leaking out could make him feel physically and mentally comfortable and refreshed!

His eyes froze and his movements froze for a moment, but in just a moment, he returned to normal.

However, Dumbledore noticed his strangeness.

"Good evening," Dumbledore raised the Philosopher's Stone in his hand, "I think you should know what this is?"

Although it was a question, his tone was firm.

Through the half-moon glasses, Turville looked into Dumbledore's blue eyes.

He gave a calm smile and said, "The only thing in the magic world that is so full of magic power is the legendary Sorcerer's Stone."

Dumbledore stared at him for a while, as if trying to read something from his face, and finally smiled heartily.

"As expected of you, I was worried that the young wizard wouldn't be able to detect such an old thing."

His face remained calm, but Tver's heart was lifted.

Snape must have told Dumbledore his suspicions about himself!

Of course, Snape would not hide such an important matter and investigate it by himself.

"Compared to you, I'm still far behind." He met Dumbledore's eyes and said calmly.

At worst, he would use the teacher's name as a shield, and he wouldn't believe that Dumbledore would really attack him directly~

In this way, does the teacher become Dumbledore's Noble Phantasm?

As if sensing Tweel's calmness, Dumbledore withdrew his probing eyes and said, "No, I mean there are very few young people who know the location of the Sorcerer's Stone but are not tempted by it."

"Oh, you mean, someone is spying on this magic stone?" Tver made a surprised expression.

"Yes, I specifically tested it during the summer vacation, and sure enough, someone wanted to attack the Sorcerer's Stone." Dumbledore blinked.

Tweel knew clearly that the fake Philosopher's Stone during the summer vacation was Dumbledore's test, and it was probably what prompted him to set up a trap and play a fishing game.

"But in my opinion, as long as you keep the Philosopher's Stone with you, I can guarantee that no one will dare to try to take advantage of the Philosopher's Stone."

Even someone as bold as Voldemort would not dare to do something like snatching Dumbledore's things openly at Hogwarts.

"You made me blush," Dumbledore poured Twil a glass of pumpkin juice himself this time.

"But as an old man, I can't stare at this stone every day. I wonder if you have any good ideas?"

elder? You are so energetic, if you don't encounter a curse or something, you can live for at least another fifty years!

Tver cursed in his heart, and then asked tentatively: "How about storing it in a place and protecting it strictly?"

"What a great idea!" Dumbledore shouted excitedly.

"I have this plan, but in the end I am a little undecided on how to store the magic stone."

"Can you help me think of a good idea?"

"..."

Tver no longer knew what to say, "Otherwise, how about adding a little psychic detection to the magic stone's protection method?"

"If you are a thief, you must be eager to get the Philosopher's Stone. You can take advantage of this. Only those who have no desire for it can actually get the Philosopher's Stone."

Dumbledore clapped his hands and praised:

"What a clever design. It seems I didn't ask the right person tonight, and it happened to be decorated during Christmas. I wonder if you have time to help me with this?"

"I'm sorry, I need to meet someone very important during the Christmas vacation." Tver paused, "Well, elder, so I can't stay in school to help you."

"And with the strength of the principal, you don't need me to tell you what to do, right?"

He didn't believe that Dumbledore was simply discussing the Philosopher's Stone with him. In fact, he was testing whether he had any desire for the Philosopher's Stone!

Whenever he showed even a little bit, he was under the watchful eye of Snape and Dumbledore until Quirrell succeeded in attracting attention.

The discussion of the Sorcerer's Stone stopped there, and the two of them tacitly agreed not to mention the Sorcerer's Stone again. It was even placed on the table without them taking another look, as if it was just an ordinary stone.

……

After finishing his research on transfiguration with Dumbledore, Tweel did not leave the eighth floor immediately after leaving the principal's office.

Instead, he searched for every tapestry on this floor, and then walked back and forth on the opposite side of these tapestries.

He's looking for the Room of Requirement.

If there really was a Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets, it would be hard not to think of the Room of Requirement.

It's just that he never cared about the location of the Room of Requirement in his previous life. Compared with the famous opening method of "reciting the need silently and then passing it three times", the location of its door will not be stored in his memory at all.

After all, he never thought that he would time travel, and it happened to be the world of Harry Potter.

So if someone comes to the eighth floor, they are likely to see this scene that will shock their jaws——

Professor Welfare, who had always appeared elegant in front of everyone, was walking around like a headless fly.

Finally, the headless fly was surprised to find that the Room of Requirement was gone!

He was pretty sure that he had walked through the entire corridor on the eighth floor and explored every tapestry. To do this, he had also blocked the view of many portraits.

But none of them showed the existence of the Room of Requirement.

Just when Tver frowned and thought hard, there was a sudden rumbling sound on the opposite side.

He quickly dodged and hid in a corner where a tapestry of a troll beating Barnabas was hanging.

Because the opposite wall turned into a door at this time, and as the door opened, a drunken professor staggered out.

Sybill Trelawney, professor of Divination and one of the last remaining seers in the wizarding world.

But her current situation is not good.

She was very thin and looked a little empty in her green robe. The glasses on her face were crooked and her hair was messy, making her look very sloppy.

Even from a long distance away, Tver could feel the sour smell of alcohol from her body, and she also had a sway when she walked.

He had been searching here for almost an hour, and the professor had been there for at least an hour.

No wonder I haven't been able to find the Room of Requirement.

However, Tver had no intention of going up to say hello. Because of the curse on his body, he would always have some awe towards prophecies.

Unlike others, he knew that this professor really had the ability to predict, but in ancient legends, all prophets will suffer a curse——

It's hard to believe what they say.

This is a very depressing and painful thing. They clearly predicted the coming truth, but often because of the coincidence caused by the curse, they were always unable to prevent the disaster from coming.

So this prophet who should have been respected by people, but because of self-doubt, could only hide in the Divination Building in Hoglots and drink away his sorrows.

After Professor Trelawney staggered away while holding on to the wall, Tweel walked to the wall.

It was a very ordinary stone wall. Thickness was its only feature. Even if he put his hand on it, he couldn't feel a trace of magic feedback.

If he hadn't seen with his own eyes that a door had just cracked open, he wouldn't have known that this was where the magical room of the Room of Requirement was.

So, what kind of room is he entering?

Snape's dressing room?

Dumbledore's bathroom?

"Boom."

An exquisite and luxurious door appeared in front of Tver, with a "male" sign thoughtfully placed on it...

What are these uses?

He quickly shook off the messy thoughts in his mind and began to study Ravenclaw.

Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets?

Ravenclaw's library?

study?

……

He tried several times, but the Room of Requirement did not give him any response. The door to the bathroom still stood in front of him.

Seeing that it was getting late, Tver stopped trying and simply opened the door.

Inside is a very luxurious bathroom, filled with various exquisite chamber pots.

But his attention was not on these chamber pots. Well, he was also shocked for a while by their exquisiteness.

Okay, okay, I was indeed curious about which one of them was used by Dumbledore.

After abandoning those inexplicable curiosity, Tver explored the source of magic in this room.

I can't find the magic source of the badge, but I can always find the magic power of the Room of Requirement!

As his magic power surged out of his body, the magic structure of this room began to emerge before his "eyes".

But Tver would rather not see it.

Too much!

Thin threads are intertwined in this room. There are five or six will threads extending out of every inch of the ground, and they are also guided to the walls or ceilings at different locations.

It's as if this room is made entirely of magic, but the question is, where does the will end?

The Room of Requirement can't be made up of thousands of wizards working together to exert their magic, right? !

Wait, he seems to have realized something.

The Room of Requirement has a room for storing miscellaneous items!

So these lines of will extend from those magic items?

Tver did not study in detail anymore. In the past, searching for a dozen items would make him dizzy. Now there are at least tens of thousands of lines here, which consumes more than half of his magic power in a short time.

However, he was also sure that exploring the Ravenclaw Chamber of Secrets could not rely on the line of will like Helga did.

As for the Horcrux in the utility room, he should come back to look for it later. For now, a ring and Quirrell are enough for him to deal with.
