HP Shavings Wizard

Christmas.

From last night to the early morning, many owls stayed up all night flying across the British sky, delivering various Christmas gifts to wizards.

When he woke up in the morning, Dumbledore received a bunch of exquisitely packaged books from his students and friends as usual, which were very consistent with British Christmas gift-giving etiquette.

The piles of gift boxes make people have no desire to open them for the time being.

He approached the principal's office, only to find that the door was covered with candies from Honeydukes Candy Store. The road covered with various candies extended all the way to the empty classroom next to it.

It must be that Alison was secretly busy in the early morning.

As a result, did I give most of the candies I bought before school started to him?

This made him feel a little amused and surprised. He waved his magic wand lightly and the candies returned to the candy bag in the middle.

I walked along the candy path to the classroom door and saw an open space covered with candies. On the table in the middle was a huge gift box, wrapped in silver-green Christmas style, delicate and gorgeous.

Dumbledore walked over with a smile, opened the gift box, and then the happy smile on his face gradually disappeared.

Even with the Traceless Stretching Charm, the gift box was still not able to contain the compressed items inside. After the lid was opened, a pile of woolen fabrics of various colors quickly burst out.

Wool socks, wool sweaters, wool pants, wool nightcaps, gloves, earmuffs, scarves, coats...

The old headmaster was buried in the thick pile of woolen fabric and had to work hard to crawl out. His long beard and hair, which had been neatly groomed in the morning, were now messy.

He sighed helplessly, picked up the woolen fabrics on the pile of candies one by one, and put them back into the gift box.

However, when he picked up the wool sock at the bottom, which was originally on the top of the gift box, he saw a Christmas card stuck to it, which read:

There's a surprise inside the box.

So he had to pick up all the woolen fabrics before he could get to the things inside.

Dumbledore had a headache, but he had no choice but to resign himself to continue cleaning up in order to find the surprise.

Finally, the warm woolen fabrics were taken out and piled up in the entire empty classroom. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his head helplessly, but tenderness flashed in his eyes.

"This child..."

A dozen of these soft and comfortable woolen fabric sets can be considered happiness and touching, but hundreds of them...

It’s so scary, can he really wear all of them in his lifetime?

There was a tightly wrapped object at the bottom of the gift box. Based on his experience of often receiving book gifts, it should be a book.

Dumbledore picked up the package and carefully unwrapped the surprise.

It was a handwritten book, all in Alison's sharp handwriting, bound in parchment and with a cover.

The title on the cover reads Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Dumbledore stared at the book, stunned.

After coming to his senses, he picked up the book of prophecies, frowned, and flipped through it quickly.

There is no Alison in the plot of the book, but many things match the reality: Harry and Hagrid, Quirrell and the troll, the Quidditch curse, the Mirror of Erised, the level guarding the Philosopher's Stone...

The last few chapters of the book say that Professor Quirrell is two-faced, and under his turban is Voldemort's face.

They tried to snatch the Philosopher's Stone from Harry, but were defeated by Harry using his mother's "loving protection". In the end, Quirrell died and Voldemort escaped...

It was really strange to read what he would say in the future from this kind of book. He knew that those were the words he would say and the things he would do, written in a predetermined plot.

After closing the book of prophecy, he fell into deep thought.

"So this kid predicted it a long time ago?"

This prediction is really scary.

It is not the vague words of Trelawney that are a little difficult to interpret, nor is it the fragments of the future seen through Gale's eyes.

Instead, it excludes the prophet himself and can be clearly changed, a whole series of possible scenarios in every detail, just like a novel story.

Dumbledore put the woolen fabrics back into the gift box, then left the empty classroom holding the gift box and the prophecy.

The candy bags also floated up and followed him.

Returning to the principal's office, he placed the gift box and candy bag on the table, picked up the book of prophecy, and continued to read it carefully.

The general development in the book is the same as he designed it.

Harry faced and defeated Voldemort, who was brought by the Philosopher's Stone, and did learn and demonstrate something from it, which made him see the possibility of cultivating Harry and fighting Voldemort - except that he did not expect that Voldemort would directly possess Quirrell.

It's just Alison...

In the future provided by the prophecy book, Alison is not involved in the plot, which means that Dumbledore will have no way of knowing if this child who knows more deliberately does anything to affect the plot.

And now, it's clear that Allison is using the additional information she knows to change the plot.

Her own magical abilities, plus the many parts of the prophecy book that were different from reality, made Dumbledore feel that he had to re-evaluate Alison's influence on the situation.

Alison's usual contradictory behavior is also very "Slytherin": she is used to dark magic and even the Unforgivable Curse, calculating people and gathering power quickly and accurately, and at the same time provocative, she cares about her family and loves to act like a spoiled child...

Looking at the box of woolen fabrics again, Dumbledore smiled again, and understood why Alison gave them to him - because he told Harry that he saw woolen socks in front of the Mirror of Erised.

There was a noise coming from the stairs of the principal's office, and Alison came up. She jumped happily all the way, feeling that she had already won, and she called out in a sticky voice.

"Dad~"

Dumbledore closed the book of prophecy and looked at her with a smile in his blue eyes.

"Merry Christmas, Alison!"

Alison asked in a long voice, with obvious pride. Although she asked the question out of consideration, she never felt that she would lose.

"Merry Christmas, Dad! Have you seen Daddy's Christmas present? How does it compare to mine?"

Dumbledore laughed.

"You gave me a room full of woollen fabrics. It is really magnificent."

Alison puffed up her cheeks and quickly added that she thought this original work that could reflect the future was pretty cool, but her father didn't seem too shocked.

"And there's a book!"

Dumbledore agreed with her in good-natured patience.

"Yes, a book of prophecies."

Alison raised her eyebrows slightly in triumph, looking competitive.

"So I'm a sure winner in the Christmas gift that shocks you?"

Dumbledore laughed again, winking slyly.

"It's hard to say... After all, the content of your book is not new to me."

Alison's smile gradually disappeared from her face and she began to speak stubbornly.

It would indeed be more shocking to give her a complete set of "Harry Potter", but she also wanted to use the basilisk to harm Lockhart next year and get her father into the school as a professor to accompany him - if she gave him one more book, she estimated that her father could go directly to Malfoy Manor to visit and eliminate the Horcrux diary at the source.

"But I don't believe he would be more shocked than me... What did Daddy give you? The old-fashioned red roses that Germans give to their lovers?"

Dumbledore couldn't help laughing and shook his head slightly.

"Your father is not so uncreative."

Alison watched as her father took out a small, beautifully wrapped box and opened it, revealing a ring.

She poked her head in, trying to ignore the ominous feeling in her heart, and pouted.

"A ring?"

Then, I saw my father pick up the ring and put it on his ring finger.
