Traveling through Hogwarts, just wanting to have a love affair

Headmaster Dumbledore also sighed in his heart at this time:

"What a monster!"

Even he couldn't use the levitation spell to achieve this. After all, this was not the magic he was best at.

Of course, if he really had to use the levitation spell, he could do it with his ability.

But this still surprised Headmaster Dumbledore. The last time he was so shocked was when he learned that Professor Snape had created the Shadowless Sword when he was a student.

You know, the Shadowless Magic is a black magic, and it was created by Professor Snape himself. How talented does one have to be to be able to do that?

Phoenix did not notice the complicated expressions of the crowd. He was surprised to find that his main task was completed.

Phoenix looked up at the basilisk that gradually stopped struggling, and his upset mood improved a little because of Tom's words.

"it is finally over."

Phoenix thought to himself.

However, Phoenix did not receive the reward immediately. He planned to go back to the dormitory and wait.

After all, there are so many people around now, who knows what will happen?

Ron approached Phoenix with a curious look on his face and asked softly:

"Phoenix, what did you just give the basilisk to drink?"

"A potion."

Phoenix smiled mysteriously and did not explain in detail.

Ron seemed dissatisfied with the answer and wanted to continue asking, but Harry gently pulled the corner of his clothes, signaling him not to ask any more questions.

Ron understood what Harry meant and stopped talking.

Phoenix glanced at Ron and Harry, then turned to look at Headmaster Dumbledore, who had remained silent, smiled, and said:

"Well, Headmaster Dumbledore, what are you going to do with this basilisk?"

Headmaster Dumbledore looked at Phoenix and asked with a smile:

"So what are you going to do? I'd love to hear your ideas."

There was a gleam of anticipation in his eyes, and he was obviously very curious about how Phoenix would deal with the situation.

But the next scene made Headmaster Dumbledore, Harry and the other three swallow their saliva.

The light beam on the basilisk's body suddenly shrank, and this time the basilisk didn't have time to scream before it was cut into several pieces.

The scene was bloody and horrific. The basilisk's blood splattered all over the ground, and even some of it splashed onto Phoenix's robe. Headmaster Dumbledore, Harry and the other three were all stunned.

isn't it?

This is too cruel!

They didn't expect Phoenix to be so determined and so cruel to kill the basilisk.

"I'll leave the cleanup to you, Headmaster Dumbledore."

Phoenix glanced at the basilisk's corpse coldly, with no emotion in his eyes, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with him.

Then he turned around and smiled at Headmaster Dumbledore, Harry and the other three.

Then Phoenix's body went limp and he fell straight to the ground.

Fortunately, Hermione was quick-witted and stretched out her hands in time to hug Phoenix, preventing it from having close contact with the ground.

Headmaster Dumbledore, Harry, Ron and Draco hurried over and found that Phoenix had fainted. His face was as pale as paper and there was no blood on his lips.

After Headmaster Dumbledore carefully examined it, he smiled and said to everyone:

"Don't worry, everyone. It's nothing serious. He just consumed too much magic power and fainted."

After hearing this, Harry and the other three finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hermione sat on the ground holding Phoenix in her arms. Looking at Phoenix lying on her legs, her cheeks flushed a little. She lowered her head slightly and rested her chin on Phoenix's head.

At this time, Headmaster Dumbledore looked at the basilisk that was no longer a snake and asked with a complicated expression:

"Draco, did you know that Phoenix treated the basilisk so cruelly?"

Draco was going crazy, his heart was on the verge of collapse, and he said slowly with a trembling voice:

“I…I don’t know…!”

Headmaster Dumbledore looked at Draco with pity, and so did Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

At this time, Hermione looked at Phoenix's pale face and hesitated for a long time before speaking:

"Principal Dumbledore, I seem to know why Phoenix is ​​so cruel this time..."

Draco, Harry and Ron all looked at Hermione in surprise. Why didn't they know the reason, but Hermione knew it?

Could it be that Hermione and Phoenix had been alone together at some point?

Even Headmaster Dumbledore looked at Hermione and asked curiously:

"Oh? Does Miss Granger know?"

Hermione nodded, the jealousy in her eyes almost overflowing, but she still suppressed her jealousy and said in a low voice:

"Phoenix once told me that Astoria hates basilisks..."

Everyone was silent, and Headmaster Dumbledore didn't know what to say. He had already thought of many reasons.

For example, Phoenix is ​​cruel by nature and likes to torture animals; or Phoenix is ​​in a bad mood because of what Tom just said, so he needs to vent.

But he never expected that the reason was so simple - his girlfriend hated basilisks!

Harry, Ron and Draco also knew about it, but they all thought Phoenix was just joking, so they didn't think about it that way from the beginning.

However, when Hermione said the correct answer, they suddenly realized it and showed helpless expressions on their faces.

At this moment, Ron suddenly twitched his nose and asked Hermione next to him:

"Hermione, do you smell something sour?"

Hermione glared at Ron and then punched him.

Ron looked at Hermione with an aggrieved look on his face, wondering what he had done wrong.

He could actually smell a sour smell in the air, and it was lemony.

But why didn't Hermione admit it?

Can't she smell it?
