HP in the name of Slytherin

Hogwarts, the oldest magic school in Europe, has a profound heritage not only in the vast Forbidden Forest, the majestic castle, or the massive collection of books.

Like the Sorting Hat, the Sword of Gryffindor, and the oldest time-turner, this is a glimpse of the rich heritage of Hogwarts.

Among so many ancient and amazing magical creations, the Book of Access and the Pen of Acceptance are undoubtedly very special existences, and they are also very mysterious.

Locked at the top of a tower that students have never visited, the cover of the Book of Access is made of black dragon skin. No one knows what material the mottled pages are made of. Only the never-drying pen of acceptance can write on it. Word.

Whenever a child with magical talents is born, her or his information will be recorded. Since the establishment of Hogwarts, the information will be refreshed every day to ensure that the school can accurately deliver admission notices when they are 11 years old. .

At noon that day, the Book of Admission suddenly turned forward many pages. The Pen of Acceptance paused for a moment and wrote a name and a string of addresses on it.

The last stroke was completed, and the invisible magical air flow oscillated downward from the tower and spread to every corner of Hogwarts.

The oldest ghosts and portraits seemed to feel something, and they all looked in the direction of the tower, but they couldn't understand more accurately what happened.

Dumbledore, the current principal in the principal's office, could sense it. A few seconds later, the portraits of the principals on the wall also sensed it and began to discuss it.

"This feeling..."

"Is it that legend?"

"Ah? What legend?"

"Please wake up, there is a legend about Slytherin!"

Dumbledore turned his head and looked out the window, where he could see the tower where the Book of Admission and the Pen of Acceptance were stored. He pushed up his glasses and murmured: "She's back again..."

"Don't shake me, I just fell asleep, who told me what happened?!"

"Remember that poem?"

"From the abyss..."

"Come from the mire..."

"Slytherin never left, Slytherin will return eventually..."

The old principals sang ancient songs in the portraits. As the current principal, Dumbledore could immediately sense the information on the Book of Access. After "reading" it, he couldn't help but chuckle, "It is indeed from the mire. coming."

UK, London, Hammersmith, Herbor Castle in the middle of Rickman Park Marsh Lake.

Quite a special address, isn't it?

The huge snake shadow flickered for a moment, and the shock caused by the castle's re-erecting did not attract anyone's attention in the Muggle world. The moment Halbo came to the world, he re-established the castle and the barrier. This was ordered by Catherine from the beginning. .

In the book Catherine read, the war between Muggles and wizards was in full swing, and wizards were obviously at a disadvantage.

She didn't know who would have the upper hand in a thousand years. It would be easy to say if it was a wizard, but if it was a Muggle...

"We are here, Master."

Along with Haierbo's voice, there was a solid feeling of stepping on the ground again.

Catherine opened her eyes, and the sky and world outside had changed colors. She saw the blue water and swaying aquatic plants outside the barrier. A fish swam past the outside of the castle, swinging its tail upwards, and the brilliance of the sun penetrated Water-permeable bottom, bright but not dazzling.

It had been a long time since she had seen such light. Catherine tentatively stretched out her hand outside the barrier. She felt a chill on her fingertips. When she took it back, there were water stains on it.

Haierbo shrank back to the size of a little finger, crawled along Catherine's soles and shouted, "Master, Master~"

Catherine picked it up and continued talking without it, telling Amy who was standing quietly aside, "Go and prepare some food for Haierbo."

"Okay, Miss Catherine." Amy trotted back to the castle without even raising her head.

The castle is no different from before. It was created by Helbo's divine power. It's a bit lonely standing alone in the middle of the water. However, Catherine and Amy don't need so much space. If there weren't too many books, she would think the castle would be smaller. does not matter.

Amy prepared the food quickly, but she came over and told Catherine, "There is almost no food in the cellar. With Lord Herbo's consumption, there will be no food in the castle in two days."

Haierbo was immersed in cooking and didn't care about anything else. Catherine knew that coming out this time would consume a lot of money, and she was already successful.

"It doesn't matter, I'll go out and figure it out tonight."

After receiving her answer, Amy quietly withdrew and went to tend the garden for Catherine.

This house elf is different from the house elf Catherine saw and described in the book. He has the neurosis common to elves, but overall he is very quiet. Except for being weird on the first day and later becoming afraid of Haierbo, he is completely like a shadow. She would only make a sound when something happened, or when Catherine asked her.

Catherine read in the study all afternoon. After dinner, it was completely dark outside, and then she put on her cloak and prepared to go out.

Haierbo was entangled with a fish he had just caught in the lake. He looked at the owner, then at the fish, and tried to negotiate, "Can't Haierbo go with the master?"

"Is Herbo going to bring the fish to me?"

Her answer was the magic of fresh fish disappearing in one second. Haierbo licked his lips and shook his body, "Haierbo has finished eating, and Haierbo is still very clean."

Catherine had no excuse and squatted down helplessly, "I want to go to the Muggle world to check the situation. I don't know what the wizarding world is like now. There is no way to give Halpo food at any time outside, and there is no way to talk to Halpo. .”

Both the Holy See and Muggles in the book are very keen and will report any unusual presence. Even if Catherine uses the Ignore Curse and the Invisibility Curse, she is still afraid of being discovered by powerful people.

After hearing what Catherine said, Haierbo tightened his grip around her ankles, "The master must take Haierbo with him, Haierbo, to protect the master!"

"Herbo is still a little baby." Catherine lifted it up.

She exerted a little force, and Haierbo's grip around her ankles relaxed. She lifted her up and said wiltingly: "Helbo, if only it were an ordinary basilisk. Whoever hurts the owner, Haierbo, it's up to them." !”

"You were still joking that people knew nothing but eyes and fangs."

Unlike ordinary basilisks, which have eyes capable of killing all life and venomous snake fangs since birth, Haierbo is different. This little basilisk inherits part of the power of the snake god Apep. Its divinity is greater than its animal nature. It needs to be passed through several times. Only conscious transformation makes it possible to grow those things.

This time's ten-year transformation seems to be just a matter of growing its bald tail and adding an almost invisible cluster of small feathers on its head.

Seeing that it was so aggrieved and pitiful, Catherine had no choice but to kiss its head as comfort, "It doesn't matter, I will be back soon. I don't want to take Haierbo out and let Haierbo starve. Our little tail grew with great difficulty." from."

Haierbo heard that Catherine didn't want to take it out, and was so anxious that she flicked her tail a few times, as if she was speeding up her thinking, and finally she actually came up with a solution.

It said hurriedly: "Helbo has become a little smaller and is in the owner's pocket. The owner puts candy cubes in the pocket. Helbo licks it and doesn't stutter."

"Is this really okay?" Catherine was not afraid of anything else. She was just afraid that Haierbo would get hungry and eat herself. The little basilisk was very considerate in many cases. If she didn't notice it or didn't have time to find food for it, it would consciously chew on its own tail. , not to cause trouble to Catherine.

Haierbo nodded eagerly: "Yes, Haierbo can! Haierbo is obedient! Haierbo wants to be with the master!"

It was so anxious that it seemed like it was about to cry. It was probably thinking of the days when she had ordered it to sleep in chaos and wait for her to come back. Although it could not remember the specific situation, it was always afraid subconsciously.

Catherine rubbed its head and said softly, "Okay, I understand. If the candy bar is almost finished, Haierbo will tell me quickly and let's come back as soon as possible, okay? Don't eat the tail secretly, and don't eat the tail secretly." Things, especially Muggles and Muggle things."

"Yeah, yeah!" Haierbo nodded immediately, and shrunk himself again, becoming about three inches long, "Helpo is like this!"

It's not as big as a sugar cube when it's rolled like this. It can indeed be licked for a long time.

Too pitiful.

Catherine put ten sugar cubes in her cloak pocket before she officially prepared to go out.

Well, one pocket contains sugar cubes, and the other pocket contains a gemstone necklace that she brought out just in case.
