[hp] Rescue Mr Diggory

When the wizard Owen was young, he met Odin, a wizard who was about the same age as him, during a dangerous expedition. Although the two young wizards had great differences in personalities, neither of them could escape the arrow shot at them by the god of love. They even broke through the worldly prejudices and fell in love without hesitation.

Odin comes from an ancient and distant country. The special thing about that country is that there is no change of seasons there. There is only winter all year round. Everything visible to the naked eye is white. Odin, who grew up there, is tired of this constant white , so he decided to leave his homeland and go to a colorful life.

But the colorful world outside is not only rich in color, but also has many strange rules, which makes Odin always feel out of place with the surroundings, but he is not scared back, but as a wizard, he still can't figure out one thing, Why do Muggles out there exclude wizards so much, they even regard some innocent fellow Muggles as wizards, and push them into the fire and burn them alive, but in fact, real wizards are not afraid of Muggles. As for tricks, as long as they want to, they can use magic to escape from Muggles' control at any time, or as long as they are a little cautious, they will not fall into Muggles' hands at all.

Odin thinks that wizards are much more capable than Muggles who don't know any magic, so they shouldn't move into the deep mountains and old forests to avoid Muggles, they should grab their wands and show up in Muggles ostentatiously. In front of melons, if anyone dares to say that wizards must die, they will use magic to make the Muggles who say these words regret being born in this world. The rulers of this world are wizards, not those self-righteous Muggles. The identity should be the servant of the wizard.

Although Owen also complained a lot about the fact that wizards had to hide their magic skills outside, he was not as extreme as Odin. He felt that there were still good ones among Muggles, and no matter what, he couldn’t think of enslaving them. Because all things in the world are born equal and free.

Because of their different ideas, the young couple always quarreled, but they were quarreling, but they were still reluctant to separate, until one day Owen discovered that Odin had been studying those taboo and inhuman black magic behind his back, and the two parted ways.

After bidding farewell to Odin, Owen began to travel alone again. One day he came to the country of Zhigeng. The Muggles in this country have a relatively tolerant attitude towards magic, so Owen lived in the kingdom for a while. During this period, he did a lot of good deeds, and his good reputation spread to the palace, so he was lucky enough to be summoned by the king.

It turned out that a Boggart slipped into the queen's bedroom at some point and hid it in one of the queen's most cherished wardrobes. When the maids opened the wardrobe to get the beautiful clothes inside in the morning, it jumped out and transformed into their hearts. The most feared thing in the depths made the queen's bedroom scream endlessly.

But it was a piece of cake for the wizard Owen, who drove away the Boggart who had caused panic in the palace for a week with just one spell.

Because of solving such a big trouble, the king and queen treated the wizard as a distinguished guest, treated each other with the highest etiquette in the kingdom, and arranged a very extravagant dinner for him.

It was at this dinner party that Owen met Prince Zhigeng who changed the fate of the rest of his life. Unfortunately, the goddess of fate did not give him a sign in advance as usual.

Although the King and Queen of Zhigeng Kingdom are very affectionate, they have only one son for many years. Years of doting made Prince Zhigeng grumpy, rude, and would not listen to anyone. Once he got angry, he would like to whip People vent their anger.This made the king and his wife very worried, because they would grow old after all. If the prince continued like this, how could they safely hand over the kingdom to him after a hundred years.

After the dinner, the king called the wizard to his study and had a secret conversation. He wanted to know if there was any magical magic or potion that could make people get rid of all their bad qualities. Unfortunately, the wizard Owen had only heard of it. If you are exposed to too much or too obsessed with black magic, it is very likely that the pure heart of a good-natured wizard will be polluted. I have never heard of a magic spell that can make a person with an evil nature good, so people say it is not easy to learn. , It only takes a moment of thought to learn to be bad.

The look in the king's eyes asking for help reminded Owen of a topic he had been arguing with Odin—whether Muggles would never change.I don't know where the confidence came from, so Owen patted his chest with the king and promised that if he was given three years, he would definitely make the prince reborn.

The king, who was ill and rushed to the doctor, believed Owen's words so credulously, and pinned his only child and the hope of the whole country's future on him, but the young and energetic wizard did not realize that the responsibility he took was also connected with a the fate of the country.

So the wizard Owen started a new journey with his new partner, Prince Zhigeng, but what Owen didn't expect was that the prince was more difficult to discipline than Xixiu who saw gold, silver and jewels.

Thinking about it carefully, it is understandable. It is not suitable for the prince who is accustomed to rich clothes and good food to suddenly give up his comfortable and comfortable life, and live and sleep with a poor wizard, so at the beginning of the journey, Owen was able to forgive the prince. Complaining all the time.

But as time goes by, especially the original intention of the wizard to take the prince out of the comfort zone is to let him experience the suffering of the common people, which may touch him and give him the idea of ​​being a wise king in the future, but the prince's performance It is really disappointing, he can turn a blind eye to the beggars who are not covered with clothes and cannot eat enough to eat on the street; Why don't you change the ridiculous words like eating cake when you have bread.

In the end, the unbearable wizard decided to teach the prince a painful lesson. He wanted to frustrate the prince's innate sense of superiority, so he cursed the prince. He cursed the prince to become a dragon that everyone feared. Until one day he can turn over a new leaf and have the consciousness of sacrificing for the one he loves before he can completely turn back into a human being.

As soon as the wizard's words fell, the prince really turned into a big black dragon. Just when the prince wanted to settle the account with the wizard, the wizard disappeared long ago, but left a magic book for the prince.

Afterwards, the prince who turned into a dragon found a cave to start his adventure, but for him who has no ability to take care of himself, the advantage of becoming a dragon is that he can survive no matter how rough his life is, which makes him overcome his pampering. During this period, he also learned a lot, including the magic book left by the wizard, which he also made good use of.

Because Muggles are not born with magical powers, no matter how hard they try, they can't learn magic. But now it's different. The prince became a magical creature because of the curse, so he can learn magic.It took him a lot of effort to learn the transfiguration technique, which allowed him to finally restore his handsome appearance before, but after all, his ability was limited, the dragon horns and tail on his head could not be retracted, and the time he could maintain this appearance was limited. It's not long, so the prince who became the dragon queen has flown back to Zhigeng country countless times, but he is afraid that his current half-human half-dragon appearance will scare his parents, so he only dares to go back and forth over the kingdom circling.

At the beginning, the prince who became a dragon would curse the wizard every day, but as time passed, and because of many things he experienced, the prince began to reflect on his past self. He is full of gratitude for everything in the book, including the wizard who made him a dragon. The reformed prince can finally understand the wizard's good intentions, but he doesn't know that the wizard is about to forget him completely.

In fact, after the wizard Owen left the prince, he traveled to many places alone. He likes to walk around, meet all kinds of people, and experience different scenery.

Originally, Owen just wanted to leave the prince there to live alone for a while, thinking that the prince would know that he was wrong after suffering so much, so that he could go back and lift the curse, and let out all the lies. His people are considered liars.

However, after traveling through three countries, the undisciplined Owen forgot about cursing the prince of Zhigeng until he passed by a kingdom very close to Zhigeng, in a noisy tavern. After hearing people talking about the long-lost Prince Zhigeng and the kidnapping of the princess of Kikyo Kingdom by a dragon, it suddenly occurred to him that he had lost the prince, and that the three-year period he had promised was running out.

On the other side, one day when the prince was wandering around the cave where he lived as usual, he accidentally rescued a girl surrounded by wolves. Because it was getting late and the girl was injured again, the prince decided to take the girl back to the cave first. , Make plans tomorrow morning.

The girl was beautiful and moving. In the process of taking care of her, the prince was fascinated by her. At this time, the prince had already changed his previous bad habits and was no longer so annoying. The girl was attracted by the sincerity and kindness of the prince. Impressed, soon fell in love with him.

Later, the girl put down her guard and told the prince that she turned out to be the youngest and most beloved daughter of the king of Kikyo Kingdom, but because she rejected a servant's marriage proposal, she was knocked out by the servant and thrown into the forest. When she woke up, she found herself Surrounded by wolves.If it wasn't for the prince's help, she would have been swallowed by the wolves long ago.

So the prince also treated her frankly and confessed his affairs, maybe because he heard that the other party was a prince, or maybe because he was dazzled by love, this innocent little princess fell in love with him desperately.The two naive young people plan to discuss when the curse on the prince is lifted or when the wizard who cast the curse is found, they will go back and tell the family, so that the family can make up a grand wedding for them.

It's just a pity that the two of them didn't know that the attendant who threw the princess into the forest turned out to be Odin, who had already become a dark wizard. After he separated from Owen, he began to plan to turn his idea into reality, so he came to Kikyo country, mixed into the palace, relied on hard work to become the king's attendant, and was quite trusted by the king, but he knew that it was not enough to gain the king's trust, he had to become the master of this country to have the power to change everything, to Seek for himself what he wants.

So Odin set his mind on the next heir of the kingdom. The queen of Kikyo Kingdom gave birth to several beautiful princesses for the king, and judging by the age of the king and queen, there would be no more children. It means that the future ruler of this country will be born among these princesses.

Odin fell in love with the little princess, who was the king's favorite child. Almost everyone in the kingdom said that the little princess would be the future queen, so he began to please the little girl and tried his best to get her. After all, a A little girl who doesn't know anything is easier to control than a wily king.

But this ignorant little girl refused the courtship of a pure-blooded wizard, which made Odin, who was confident that he would never fail, think it was a great shame. He was arrogant and thought that no one could refuse his request, so Annoyed and angry, he didn't want to spend any more time to get the little princess, so he simply revealed his true colors, kidnapped the princess and threw it into the forest, and asked the beast to tear the delicate little princess into pieces for him to relieve the shame he suffered.

The disappearance of the princess quickly caused panic in the entire kingdom. The king issued a high reward order to find his beloved daughter, and ordered all the servants in the palace to be dispatched.Although Odin, who was behind the scenes, knew the truth, he pretended to go out to find the princess in order to avoid suspicion and to ensure the death of the princess, but this made him know that the princess and the dragon had already conceived. I also learned about the curse from the little friend I made friends with the prince in the forest.

After returning, Odin didn't tell the king himself, but controlled another attendant with the Imperius Curse to tell the king and the king's people that their most precious princess was taken away by a giant dragon, and the giant dragon The dragon's asking price is the gold coins of the whole kingdom.After the drama ended, he fabricated the lie that the dragon would tear up the ticket after collecting the gold coins. For a while, the people's anger surged, and the whole kingdom began to shout the slogan of slaying the dragon.

When everyone thought that the little princess had died tragically at the hands of the dragon, she had a big belly and was discussing excitedly with the prince every day what name to give the little guy in her belly, dreaming of how to treat the prince. After the curse is lifted, they can return to their families and live a happy life.

In the end, Odin lived up to the expectations and became a warrior. He shouldered the hope of the people of the whole country and went to the cave to fight the prince. But that day happened to be the day when the princess was about to be offered.

When the wizard Owen, who finally remembered the curse, arrived, the prince was fighting with Odin, but because Odin knew some extremely evil but powerful black magic, even if Owen teamed up with the prince who turned into a dragon, it would not be a big deal. What's worse, the princess, who was about to die, was suffering from abdominal pain. She cried out one after another in the depths of the cave, which aroused the prince's desire to protect. When he thought of his lover and his baby who was about to be born , the prince was ready to sacrifice at any time, but he didn't want his determination to make the curse that Owen cast earlier was broken at that moment, and the prince who lost the magic power suddenly became an unarmed Muggle, which made them even more vulnerable. Might have hoped to beat Odin.

Seeing that Owen was hit by another curse, the prince knelt down and begged the wizard to turn him back into a dragon, no matter how much he paid for it, because this time he had someone he wanted to protect .But there is only one spell that can turn a man into a dragon. If there is any mistake, it will never change back, but due to the situation, Owen finally fulfilled the prince's wish.

The prince, who turned into a dragon again, quickly flew to the black wizard, embraced the black wizard with his strong and powerful arms, and the two rushed out of the cave together and fell into the unfathomable cliff.At the same time, there was a loud cry of a baby from the cave.

It was a healthy baby boy, but part of the baby's body had the characteristics of a dragon. He was a half-dragon. After Owen noticed this, he immediately thought that maybe the child's father, the prince, was a dragon until his death. In a sense, the curse has not been completely broken, and the prince is dead, so part of the curse on him has inevitably been transferred to the child, but the trouble is that everything is messed up now, even Owen who cast the curse I don't know how to break the curse.

The princess tried her best to give birth to the child. After she entrusted the child to Owen and told him that they named the child "Cedric", she closed her eyes forever.

The poor child lost his parents at birth.

Owen finally found the prince's body under the cliff, but the dragon horn on the prince's head was missing, but Owen did not find Odin's body there, so Owen guessed that Odin might still be alive, and saw off the prince's dragon Jiao returned to his life, which made him feel very complicated. He couldn't tell what kind of feeling he felt about the fact that Odin was still alive.

Because the prince was still a dragon when he died, and his body was too big, the wizard could only call the giants in the forest for help. It took them a day and a night to bury the prince's body under the cliff, and then they buried the princess's body under the cliff. beside the prince.

Because he broke his promise and indirectly killed the prince of Zhigeng, the wizard was afraid that the king of Zhigeng would punish him with death, so he didn't dare to take the baby to recognize his ancestors. Not sure what people would do to such a half-dragon, half-human little guy, so he built a cabin in the forest near the cave, and took Cedric to live here, because he loved the prince and princess. Feeling guilty, the wizard decided to spend the rest of his life raising Cedric to be an outstanding person.

After a few years like this, Owen, who settled in the forest, finally found out about Odin's whereabouts. He was indeed still alive. Back then, he returned to his command with the pair of dragon horns, so he became a hero in the kingdom. On the eve, he mysteriously disappeared.

People came to the residence of the warrior Odin, only to find that he left a note saying "My heart is not here", and no one knew where he was going or why he left. A mystery with many different opinions.

Owen thought that Odin was probably moved by the prince's unswerving love for the princess, and then changed his view of Muggles, so he gave up his original plan and went to pursue his way elsewhere.

After that, Owen didn't continue to inquire, but concentrated on taking care of Cedric in the forest.

Since the disappearance of the warrior Odin, the king of Kikyo set up a huge statue in the square to commemorate the dragon slaying warrior according to public opinion. Afterwards, he became obsessed with the cause of dragon slaying and vowed not to let such a tragedy happen again. Soon after, Kikyo The country was renamed the Dragon Slaying Kingdom, and the cave where the dragon once lived and the surrounding areas became forbidden areas of the kingdom.

In the forest cabin, the wizard finished his story to everyone.

"Yes, he pretended to be me." said the old king angrily.

Cedric touched his head and said blankly: "So the guy I saw pretending to be the king is not you, but yours..."

"Yes, an old chap of mine," said the wizard, "as to why he appeared to you in my form, I think he's still playing that old trick—Polyjuice Potion. He probably still has The bracelet I gave him back then, I braided it out of my own hair."

"Why did you send him such a thing?" Cedric asked puzzled, and other people present were also curious about this question.

"Oh, well, when I was a fool, I heard that in the far east, people who love each other will give each other hair to show that the hair is of the same heart, and they will be together for a hundred years." The wizard stared at Cedric's hair, " That's romantic, isn't it? I think it's time for you to cut your hair, too."

Cedric, who understood what the wizard was implying, blushed suddenly. Since the situation was more urgent now, the wizard didn't continue to tease him. After laughing for a while, he told him that Odin had massacred him in the name of the king of the dragon kingdom over the years. Summon dragon warriors, but in fact he recruited dark wizards who have the same extreme views on Muggles and wizards as him. Over the years, they seem to help other kingdoms solve the problem of being threatened by dragons, but in fact They did not kill these dragons, but secretly raised them in captivity and domesticated them as weapons.

Today's Odin and his gang are ready to go. He no longer needs the identity of the king of the Dragon Slayer Kingdom to cover up. He can start a war at any time, a war about who is a slave, a wizard or a Muggle. war.

"During the time I have been away from you, I have learned a lot from these fellow wizards along the way. Odin has persuaded each of them, but there are also many of them who, like me, think he is too extreme, so some Many people were killed because they rejected him. Then I received the letter that you were caught, so I rushed back without stopping." The wizard sighed, his eyes were full of disappointment, "I thought he would have I gave up, but now it seems that I have never really understood him..."

Cedric asked, "So what were you going to do after you left me?"

"I originally wanted to go to Zhigeng Kingdom, that is, to your grandfather's kingdom. I wanted to tell him about the stupid things I did back then. Now that you are so old, it's time to go back to your relatives. But when I got there, I realized that the king and queen were long gone, and the one who finally succeeded to the throne was a cousin of your father, that is, your cousin."

The wizard said that he made a cross on his chest, "The benevolent queen did not blame me. She asked the bishop to take me to tell the dead king and queen that they were chanting the name of the prince until they died. After that, I told the queen about the Dragon Slaying Kingdom, and it was with her help that so many white wizards were able to gather here."

The wizard's expression suddenly became extremely serious. He faced everyone and raised his wand high.

"Okay, everyone's time for storytelling ends here, and now it's time for fighting!"

When Cedric deliberately imitated the old wizard's voice with a thick voice, the antique clock in the living room that was given to the young couple by Grandpa Camelia as a wedding present was gurgling, and it was already midnight before he knew it. Miria also yawned accordingly, she felt that this bedtime story was a bit long.

"You don't need to tell me the rest of the story, I already guessed the ending." Camelia rubbed her eyes, "Cedric finally defeated the evil dark wizard with the help of his adoptive father wizard and friends, The Tulong Kingdom has changed back to the former Kikyo Kingdom, and Cedric went to the Zhigeng Kingdom to recognize his ancestors. After the Queen passed away, he inherited the throne and became a beloved king. By the way, he also married Camelia and they lived happily ever after and had a prince named Neil."

"Well, I don't want to admit it, but it's true." Cedric felt a little helpless that Camelia guessed the plot all at once, but this was expected, after all, he was with her When reading detective novels, she always knew the murderer halfway through.

"But what do you think of this story?" Cedric asked nervously.

"It's okay, but this fairy tale ending is too typical, and I wouldn't write it like that."

"I know that this plot is a bit vulgar, but I'm a little curious, if it were you, what new ideas would you have?"

"I would write that they lost to the evil side, and the world ended up being ruled by dark wizards, and they recreated a new order. If you want a good ending, I might write that after Cedric is killed by a dark wizard. Before she died, Camelia was pregnant, and then she gave birth to Neil. Neil carried the hope of his mother and all the enslaved people to defeat the dark wizard, and the world returned to peace. are equal."

"So you want our son to be a hero in the end?" Cedric frowned.

"Isn't it good? Our little guy is a great hero! You should be proud of him!"

"I don't think so. Originally, this story was made up for you, because I think you can't fall asleep. If you can't sleep, I can tell you stories and lull you to sleep. But who knows that you only have a son in your heart. There is no me at all..."

Camelia pinched Cedric's nose, "Okay, okay, you've always been a hero in my heart. Our Mr. Diggory really grew up like a child, even his son's I have to eat vinegar."

"It's not that you have neglected me since you had a son."

"How can there be? You don't want to wrong people." After Camila finished speaking, she remembered that he had told this story to her son. Although the story itself was not a major problem, some plots were not suitable for children to hear, so she couldn't help Nag a few words.

"It's already very good to be able to make up a story like this for the first time, and it covers so many subjects, especially when you talk about love, but it's not appropriate for our son to listen to it now when he's so young. What if he asks you after he hears it? Why can't the dragon's horns be touched casually, what to do with such an embarrassing problem?"

"Don't worry, the story I told my son didn't have these things at all. This is the version I specially told you."

"Okay." Camelia became more and more sleepy, "Then go to bed, I'm so sleepy after listening to the story."

But Cedric didn't look sleepy at all.

"Jamie, for the sake of the story I've told you for so long, don't you plan to give me some reward?"

Camelia was also extremely sleepy, she leaned over and kissed Cedric on the face perfunctorily, "Here, this is a reward, you can go to bed now."

But Cedric said greedily that this reward was not enough.

Two or three months later, Camelia was found to be pregnant. This was a good thing, but when she was pregnant with this pregnancy, she had severe morning sickness and couldn't eat. During the pregnancy, I recalled countless times why I had to listen to Cedric tell that stupid story that night, but after she gave birth to a pair of lovely twin daughters, she never thought about it again. Later, she would tell the original story to her children It was a bedtime story that Cedric made up for her.

The author has something to say:

Generally speaking, this episode is about Dad making up a bedtime story with private goods for Mom.
