The Ancient Wizards of Hogwarts

Chapter 31 Dumbledore has no good intentions

In the early morning, Ash woke up from his dormitory.

Outside the window was the rising sun, and its bright sunlight shone on the dark blue carpet dotted with stars on the ground.

Ash lay on the bed and looked around. It was extremely quiet in the dormitory because he was the only one in the dormitory.

As the 13th new student in Ravenclaw, he was able to have an entire room to himself with special preferential treatment from Penelo and Qiu Zhang.

Unpretentious, dull and boring.

Yes, Qiu Zhang and Penello did not stay overnight. It can only be said that one-eighth of the Veela blood is still not innocent enough. They just helped tidy up the room and returned to their dormitory.

But Ash is not in a hurry, he will stay in this school for another seven years, which is still a long time.

There will always be a chance for them to move here in the future... Of course, Ash has always respected women, so it's not impossible for him to move to the girls' dormitory.

It's better to say this.

Dong Dong~!

There was a knock on the door, followed immediately by Senior Sister Qiu Zhang's gentle voice:

"Ash, are you awake?"

Ash opened the door, showed a gentle smile, and asked softly:

"I just woke up too, what's the matter?"

Qiu Zhang looked at the young man's smile as warm as the sun, his pretty face flushed slightly, and he said softly:

"An owl just sent a letter, I think it should be yours."

Qiu Zhang handed over a letter. The wax seal was intact and had not been opened.

The envelope also said:

Regards Ash Black.

Ash took the envelope and said softly:

"Thank you, Senior Qiu Zhang."

"It's okay, as long as it doesn't disturb your rest." Qiu Zhang blushed slightly and looked away. This smile was so foul!

After saying goodbye to Qiu Zhang, Ash closed the door and opened the envelope.

Just as he thought, this letter was written by Dumbledore:

"Dear Mr. Black:

I'm glad that you have been assigned to Ravenclaw House. I hope this letter does not disturb your rest.

Based on your previous experience, I don't think you need to schedule your time according to the first-year curriculum.

You are free to choose courses that interest you and ask professors after class for more advanced course content.

While I don't think taking lower-division classes will help you more, I imagine other professors will expect you to be on time.

If you need help, you can come to my office for help. The password is: exploding jelly beans.

Also, Professor McGonagall would like to meet you before your first class.

Once again, welcome back to Hogwarts. "

Ash looked at the contents on the letter and couldn't help but fell into deep thought:

"Arrange your own lessons? What does Dumbledore want to do?"

Granted, the lessons taught at Hogwarts didn't help him much, either in the lower or upper years. But Dumbledore directly allowed him to arrange his courses freely, which was somewhat beyond his expectation.

Because he couldn't see why Dumbledore did this.

Do you simply think that he will be bored in class with freshmen, or do you want to see what he will do if he can freely arrange his classes?

Ash preferred the latter.

As the principal of Hogwarts, everything that happens in this castle will be under Dumbledore's surveillance. The portraits all over the campus are Dumbledore's best spy.

Dumbledore must have been quite wary of this 'hero' who was born in Slytherin a hundred years ago. Although Dumbledore would not attack him directly because of the title of 'Hero Black', he would definitely want to know whether Ash is who he appears to be.

"You are really cautious." Ash chuckled.

In fact, he did not resent Dumbledore's caution. On the contrary, as the principal of Hogwarts, Dumbledore must eliminate all possible dangers to the castle, and surveillance with portraits is the most convenient option. The more he pays attention to Ash, the more it shows how much he values ​​Ash and how high his expectations for Ash are.

If he didn't care about Ash, there was absolutely no need to pay him too much attention.

Ash has never lacked patience. This is something he has trained through his past experiments - in order to achieve a success, he often needs to go through hundreds or even thousands of failures. Thousands of dark wizards have done this. He paid for his precious life.

If Ash doesn't have enough patience, he will be sorry for the selfless dedication of these wizards.

certainly.

Ash can't just be a 'good boy'. An overly perfect character will arouse suspicion. What's more, Ash was born in Slytherin, and everyone knows that Dumbledore has always been biased against Slytherins - it can't be said that Dumbledore is looking at people through colored glasses, mainly students who are born in Slytherin. There really aren't many good ones, including Ash.

Yes, Ash doesn't consider himself a good person. Because he has always been very self-aware, as long as he is giving to good people, he will not add one-eighth of Veela blood to himself, let alone consume the lives of hundreds of wizards for this.

So he needs to reveal part of his secret just right so that Dumbledore can grab his pigtail.

However, this requires a period of planning and a reasonable enough reason and process to expose his secret.

As for now, he has to meet Professor McGonagall first.

In the common room, looking at Ash coming out of the bathroom, a little girl mustered up the courage to shout:

"Ash, do you want to read with us?"

"Feel sorry."

Ash apologized:

"Maybe not. I have a few things to deal with here."

Ash recognized the little girl, Lisa Dupin, a freshman.

It's quite cute, but it has a little freckles - Westerners may think this is more distinctive, but Ash prefers fair skin with no blemishes. For example, Cho Chang, Penelope, Harley, Cassandra and Hermione...

Well, it's a bit much, and I don't know if he can arrange it in time. After all, he is not a time management master.

The little girl pursed her lips slightly and lowered her head in disappointment.

The first class for first-year Ravenclaw students is Herbology, but that is already equivalent to the second class in other houses. It means there is no class in the first class and they can only stay in the common room to kill time. .

As for Ash, he was going to see Professor McGonagall in the Transfiguration classroom.

Being able to serve as the Transfiguration Professor at Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall naturally has two skills.

For example, she is a rare Animagus in the wizarding world, which is almost the highest achievement of Transfiguration - almost.

Because the transformation of Animagus is usually limited to non-magical creatures, while the transformation of magical creatures will bring unpredictable consequences - most of the time, they will directly explode and die, and a few will become unable to see directly, polluting the spirit. , a ball of flesh covered with tentacles, and only rarely a bloated monster that transforms into a half-human, half-magical creature.

As for those who have successfully transformed into magical creatures, unfortunately, there is no such thing.
