HP Polar Night
Chapter 20 The Mirror of Erised
Harry subconsciously looked at Agares.
If he was alone, Agares must have gone back to the secret room through that door.But now that Harry is still here, he thought for a while and said, "Looks like we need to borrow your invisibility cloak."
Harry agreed to Agares' proposal, and then the two huddled together in the invisibility cloak and walked towards the library door.Agares threw "quiet" on the feet of the two of them to prevent the footsteps from being too loud to expose their positions.
Filch opened the library door and looked in, but saw nothing.He never expected that the two people wearing the invisibility cloak were walking out the door next to him.
"Professor Snape, there are people in the restricted section!" Filch shouted towards the other side of the corridor.
Harry's expression changed.The name Snape was a nightmare for Harry, he thought, he and Agares were both the most hated students of Snape, who Hogwarts was famous for.If Snape caught him, he might propose to expel them!
Professor Snape's footsteps came from another direction.
Filch in front, Snape behind.
The corridor is so small, they are still squeezed together by two people, if they are accidentally bumped into by someone, it will be over.
Harry couldn't help but feel hopeless.
At this time, Agares tugged Harry and dragged him to the side room.A gap was opened in this room, and it was pitch black inside.
The two carefully squeezed in through the crack of the door without making any sound.No sooner had they entered than Professor Snape strode down the corridor, wand in hand. "Forbidden book area? Then they must not have gone far." Snape looked even more gloomy and terrifying tonight.
Finally, after the sound of footsteps faded away, Harry breathed a sigh of relief.
Agares closed the door tightly and cast a locking spell on the doorknob.
"Huh, I was scared to death." Harry almost slumped on the ground.
"Let's go out later, they may still be around." Agares waved his wand, and a silver light flew from the tip of his wand to the chandelier on the ceiling, and the room suddenly became brighter.
It seemed to be an abandoned classroom, with many tables and chairs stacked against the walls.But what does not match the temperament of this room is a gorgeous golden mirror, the base is two claw-shaped feet, the mirror is very high, almost reaching the ceiling, and a line of words is engraved on the top of the frame: Eris Stella Uhrua Itoubi Cafruait en Vochs.
Harry walked over curiously and stood in front of the mirror looking at himself.
Suddenly, his face changed.He looked behind him for a while, and looked in the mirror for a while. "Ah, Agares... Look in this room, is there anyone else?"
"Others?" Agares looked around. "No, just the two of us."
Harry looked even more tense after listening.He kept looking in the mirror, then turning his head to look behind him. "I saw in the mirror... there are many people standing behind. Agares, come and see, is this a mirror that can see ghosts?"
Agares walked over, and he appeared in the mirror, just him and Harry.
Harry opened his eyes wide. "Disappeared."
"You see a lot of people behind you in the mirror?" Agares frowned.After Harry nodded, he took a step aside.
"It appeared again! Could it be that this mirror can only be seen by one person?" Harry was puzzled.He looked at the person in the mirror, and suddenly he reacted suddenly. "Here, they are, they are my family!"
"Crimson hair, green eyes, she's my mum, and my dad, the rest must be my family... so it allows me to see family..." Harry's eyes moistened.He stared fascinatedly at himself in the mirror and at the family standing behind him, staring hungrily.
Agares carefully observed the patterns on the mirror and the lettering on the top.
Finally, Harry recovered from the warmth of his family.He wiped away his tears and said, "Agares, do you want to see your family?"
Agares' heart moved.
He didn't refuse, and stood in front of the mirror after Harry gave up his position.
However, neither Marianne nor Sirius Black appeared in the mirror.
Only himself appeared in the mirror. Compared with him, he seemed to be ten years later, with a mature appearance.He held a crown in his hand, his eyes were cold and indifferent.
Agares was startled.
"Did you see that, Agares?" Harry asked.
"No, no."
"Then what did you see?"
Agares was silent for a moment: "Probably, it's the desire in my heart."
Hearing his words, Harry was also taken aback.He subconsciously looked in the mirror, but only saw the figure of the black-haired boy.
Inner, longing?
After a while, the two went out wearing an invisibility cloak.There was no one outside.
Agares and Harry's bedrooms are in two directions, and they bid farewell to each other at the landing of the stairs.When they parted, Harry asked, "Will you go back?"
Agares knew he was referring to the mirror just now.He shook his head: "Harry, I know what I want better than anyone else. Maybe it's more suitable for those who can't see what they want clearly, but I think it won't be me." The boy longed to see his family inside, and knew that the boy would definitely go back there again, but he didn't intend to persuade him.
The look in Harry's eyes dimmed a lot. He lowered his head and said in frustration, "I've never seen them...it's so unfair..." His voice became softer and lighter, as if he felt that it was wrong for him to say such words .
"Harry," Agares reached out and touched the boy's head with a gentle tone, "you can go to see it if you want, just control the time well. The more you stare at what you can't get, the more you will lose More. The world owes you too much, but you should use your actions to redeem it, instead of falling into nothingness."
The boy raised his head, half understanding.
"Okay, it's late, go back and rest quickly. I think you have this thing, and you can go there a few more times during the holiday." Agares patted him on the shoulder.
"Okay, good night, Agares."
"Good night."
After saying goodbye to Harry, Agares walked back to the basement alone.The effect of the Disillusionment Charm would allow him to walk safely back to the common room without being noticed by any of the castle's nocturnal creatures, and sometimes Filch and his cat, Mrs. Norris, would come from Agares He walked by, but the magic-free Filch couldn't see him, and Mrs. Norris had only to turn her head, and Agares would cast a Confusion Charm on her.
As long as these two spells are mastered, Hogwarts Castle at night is defenseless for Agares.
As for the professors on night watch, as long as they figure out their night shift schedule and patrol rules, all this is not a problem.
Safely back to the stone wall of Slytherin again, Agares lifted the Disillusionment Charm.
"Fame." The stone door opened slowly, and Agares returned to the common room.
"Agareth Black, uh-huh, skilled night ranger." A familiar voice came from the sofa in front of the fireplace.Agares looked over, only seeing a dark figure.
He slowly pressed down the wand in his hand. "Good evening, Dean Snape."
"Mr. Black, I think I warned you to stay safe at Hogwarts and not to behave inappropriately. Maybe, you think you are so great that you can do whatever you want? Forbidden. Book area, wow, wonderful Slytherin should give you a point for your bold move." The sarcastic words came out of the other party's mouth.
Agares didn't feel any fear or worry. He didn't suspect that the man opposite him hated and hated him at all, but he wasn't worried that he would be punished too harshly for violating the school rules, let alone be punished. expulsion.In fact, Hogwarts has only expelled one student in 100 years, and it is said that negligence caused the student's death.Not to such a serious extent, no matter what Agares does, he is confident that he can get out unscathed.
"Dean, I think I'm just going back to the dormitory late."
Professor Snape stared intently into his eyes, trying to see any flinch or uneasiness in them.But no, the 12-year-old boy in front of him has a personality that is extremely inconsistent with his age.Mature, stable, not sure what he was thinking.He seemed to see another self in the boy, but better than his young self.
At the beginning of school, the boy was nothing special, only because of his surname and Malfoy's actions, some people observed him.But some people are born to stand out from the crowd.
He is very smart, and the knowledge in books can't help him at all. All the professors feedback that there is nothing that Black can't learn.At the same time, he was very humble.Often a man who stands out from the crowd cannot be expected to be humble with others.But Blake quickly established his prestige among the first-year students by helping his classmates, and spread this to other colleges.
During that school year, Professor Snape had been observing each other.
His embarrassment seems to be a stepping stone for the other party, making him famous as "the most hated student at Hogwarts by the potions professor".And Severus Snape is also very aware of his image in the minds of Hogwarts students, and almost every student he has taught outside of Slytherin will automatically form a united front.People who are hated by him are likely to become people who others sympathize with.
It's hard to say whether Snape himself played a role behind Black being remembered by the whole school.
Agareth Black, recognized as the best grader among students of the same level and even higher.It is also recognized as the most popular among Slytherin houses.
He was just at the right time, entering the school a year before the savior Harry Potter.
These were the most benign two years for the Slytherins, because they were all on the sidelines, and at the same time there was no one suitable to help them open up a new situation.
Agareth Black just showed up.
Bearing the surname of the oldest pure-blood family in the wizarding world, and being friends with Malfoy, he has outstanding abilities and a calm and steady personality.
Originally, once the savior entered school, he would steal everyone's limelight, just like Draco Malfoy now.
But Agareth Black had a firm grip on the time of the year.He succeeded in leaving an extremely deep impression on everyone's minds.Humble and polite, gentle and stable, with excellent grades.
The savior's glory will pass, if the savior is not so different from other little wizards.
People's eyes will always be attracted by better people, and now, Agares is trying to keep himself in that position.Of course he pursues power, after all power is the origin.But he never showed his danger.
Compared with the foolish behavior when he was obsessed with black magic and was warned by the professor, and gradually drifted away from his friends, Agareth Black is much, much better than him.
He dared to say that Dumbledore must have seen this, so he didn't stop Harry Potter from interacting with Agareth Black in the first place.
Oh, another Potter and a Black.
Is this the reincarnation of fate?
Against the light, Agares couldn't see the expression and eyes of the other party, but he felt the complexity in those eyes.
The two sides were silent for a while.
Finally, it was the other party who broke the silence. "One month of labor service, I will send you a message about the punishment. Mr. Black, I hope that the rest of your life will not be spent with your father in Azkaban. Please keep this in mind, This is the only warning your master can give you."
Agares blinked, then he bent slightly: "Thank you for your warning, keep it in mind."
The man strode out of the Slytherin common room.
After he left, Agares swung his wand at the cup on the table, and the whole table was cut in half with the cup in the middle.Touching the ready-to-move wand in his hand, Agares laughed lightly: "Warning? Heh..."
He flicked his wand again, as if an invisible hand had pushed the two halves up and glued them back together again.
The common room returned to its usual calm, and no one knew what happened tonight.
The author has something to say:
In Severus' mind, Agares was an excellent student, and if his surname wasn't Blake, he would have become his favorite student.Of course, I doubt whether he has ever really loved any student from the bottom of his heart in his life, as if all his feelings have disappeared with Lily's death.Many fans like to portray Draco Malfoy as Snape's godson or favorite student, but from the original book, I really didn't see which student Snape had a preference for.
If he was alone, Agares must have gone back to the secret room through that door.But now that Harry is still here, he thought for a while and said, "Looks like we need to borrow your invisibility cloak."
Harry agreed to Agares' proposal, and then the two huddled together in the invisibility cloak and walked towards the library door.Agares threw "quiet" on the feet of the two of them to prevent the footsteps from being too loud to expose their positions.
