time at hogwarts
25. Charles Steven
The first two sentences should refer to wizards born in his family, but what about the second sentence?
"Desire?" Magos asked hesitantly.
Dumbledore looked happy when he heard his words, like a child who had stolen candy.
"It's very vivid, and it's quite right. It's not that there were no wizards from super-rich Muggle families in the past, but some of them couldn't bear it and dropped out of school. You know, at that time, wizards from Muggle families were often hostile and attacked by pure-blood families. , it is normal for those children who are accustomed to being popular in Muggle society to be unable to bear the blow and leave school. And some of those who can persist are because of their experiences in school. When they grow up, they try to overthrow the pure-blood family's rule of the wizarding world and use Muggles Family wizards take the lead, and as you know, they fail. Some of them do whatever it takes for their pursuit, which is the desire you mentioned, because they lack nothing, they have money and rights, and after completing their studies, they have With the mysterious power of magic, they are very indifferent to human nature. To achieve their goals, some of their methods are more terrifying than the dark wizards." After hearing Dumbledore's words, Magos opened his mouth to refute.
"I understand what you want to say, child. I know many, many dark wizards are descendants of pure-blood families. Do you think they are in greater danger?"
Magos nodded silently and said nothing.
"You are right, but there is nothing we can do." Dumbledore looked directly at Magos.
"Mr. Will, you are very talented. I am very happy to see that you have not been dazzled by the false praise in the newspaper. I hope you can maintain this mentality in the future. You know, the more we encounter, the more The more temptations you have, the further you can go if you keep your heart." Seeing Magos nodding seriously, Dumbledore said happily:
"Ah, I'm sorry to let you waste your precious vacation. Old people are always more verbose. I hope you don't mind. Finally, I have a personal suggestion. Gryffindor of Hogwarts, you What do you think?" He said and winked at Magos.
"Great!" Magos nodded knowingly.
"I think so too, but I don't want this to disturb your thoughts. In the end, you have to rely on yourself to make any decision. Well, it's getting late. I think I shouldn't bother you anymore. One more thing. , I have a very good relationship with Professor Sleep, he showed me the magic potion you created, Negative Spirit Elixir, it was amazing, the effect and name are very creative."
"Thank you."
"You don't need to be so polite in the future. Okay, do you have any questions?"
"There's another one," Magos said hesitantly.
"That's the immortality you mentioned. I have read many reports about you. One of them is Nicol Flamel. It is said that the magic stone he created can turn stones into gold and make people immortal. Why don't they How about finding a magic stone?"
"Haha, Mr. Will, I admit that you are very smart at your age, but do you really think that the Philosopher's Stone is so easy to make? And if there is reward, there will be sacrifice. Don't ask me what it is, maybe you will in the future I’ll ask him personally if I have a chance.”
"I'm sorry that I can't chat with you anymore. I have something to do and I have to leave. Goodbye, Mr. Will." He slowly stood up and nodded to Magos with a smile.
Watching Dumbledore leave, he picked up his drink and took a sip. To be honest, he didn't expect to meet Dumbledore here, or now. He now understands why the novel talks about Harry Potter and him. We feel constrained when we are together, because his eyes are so penetrating, it seems that no secret can be hidden in front of him, and he always dominates the conversation without him noticing.
'Although I am very happy to meet the legendary figure, it is better to meet less often in the future. My secrets and thoughts should not be discovered by others. '
After sitting and chatting with the people around him for a while, he remembered the purpose of coming here. After bidding everyone a friendly farewell, he came to Diagon Alley.First, he went to the Daily Prophet to subscribe to newspapers for a year, and then went to the bookstore to look for those mysterious words. However, the results were not very good. He did not find any information about the tribal words. He had no choice but to leave, which was a bit regretful. I thought that I should have asked Dumbledore just now, he should know.
Several days passed like this, and Magos had nothing to do except read the Daily Prophet and practice magic spells every day. He had almost mastered all the magic potions for the low-level ones. It was just a matter of proficiency, while for the advanced ones, He didn't want to try what he did last time without anyone's guidance. After all, luck couldn't be that good every time.However, just when he thought he would wait quietly until Hogwarts starts school next year, someone came.
Charles Steven, a friend of McGoss's father who had neither a good relationship nor a bad relationship, suddenly came to visit him that day. This surprised Earl Will, but he still talked to him politely. Yes, but he always keeps looking around, which makes Earl Will a little unhappy and confused.
"Steven, why are you here this time? It seems to me that you have been looking for something? If there is anything in my house that you are curious about, tell me about it and I will show it to you."

When Charles Steven heard Count Will's displeasure, he stopped talking about the subject and signaled Count Will with his eyes to remove the servants around him.Earl Will was also a little curious about what Steven was planning, so he asked everyone around him to step back.
"Will, we have known each other for many years." Seeing Earl Will nod, Steven smiled.
"Actually, you only see another side of me. There are some things you don't know, and I wouldn't let you know them originally. But for some reasons, I came here this time to tell you some unknown secrets."
"What secret?" Earl Will was unmoved.
"Haha, of course, now you may also know those secrets, such as wizards, magic..." Steven didn't mind Count Will's attitude and said in a mysterious tone.
Earl Will's expression changed drastically when he heard it, and then returned to his previous expression the next moment as if he didn't understand anything, but Steven, who had been observing him, could see it clearly.
"Will, you really know. Your son must have told you." Steven said as if he knew everything.
"I don't know what you are talking about. If you keep talking nonsense like this, I will have to ask you out."
Seeing Earl Will's helpless appearance, Steven shook his head helplessly, reached out and took out a piece of wood from his clothes, but when the Earl saw the piece of wood, his expression changed drastically.
"Wand!!!" Earl Will took a deep look at this unfamiliar friend.
"Ha, you really know, old friend, I won't hide it from you anymore. I know your son is a wizard. I came here this time to accept him as a disciple and teach him. How about it." Steven looked like you. Earned expression.
Earl Will looked a little confused.
"Teaching? My son?"
"Yes, your son's talent is quite good. I think he can become my apprentice. How about it, old friend, I only came because of our past relationship."
"I need to discuss this with him, please wait a moment." Looking at Count Will's hesitant expression, Steven nodded haughtily.
Earl Will quickly walked to Magos' magic study room. He knew that he usually stayed there when he was not going to school.
"Bump..."
Magos, who was trying to translate the contents of the mysterious parchment, raised his head strangely. It was not meal time, and his parents knew what they were doing, so no one would usually disturb them?
When he walked to the door and saw through the peephole that his father was coming, Magos quickly opened the door.
"Dad, why are you here? You are such a rare visitor." Magos looked at his father at the door with a smile and asked him to come in.
"Magos, I have an unfamiliar friend, Charles Steven. I don't know if you still have any memories." Count Will didn't pay attention to Magos's playful smile and instead asked him a strange question hesitantly. question.
Magos thought about it and shook his head. He had no feeling at all about that name.
"That's right. I don't know where he knew you were a wizard, especially..."
"Wait, Dad, are you saying that he found out from some unknown source that I am a wizard?" Magos interrupted Earl Will's words and asked.
Earl Will nodded.
"Is he also a wizard?" There was a questioning tone in his mouth, but Magos's expression was positive.
"I don't know if he is a wizard, but he took out a wand, which is very similar to yours, except that it is a different color and shorter."
"Yes, he is indeed a wizard, but why did he suddenly come to my house and reveal his identity to you?" Magos looked curious.
"It's not because of you." Count Will glanced at him speechlessly. Ever since he suddenly learned that his son was a wizard, he felt that such strange things kept happening.
"Me? What does this have to do with me?"
"Listen to what I have to say. After he found out you were a wizard, he came here specifically and said he wanted to take you on as his disciple."
"Accept me as a disciple? Are you kidding me? Nowadays, there are magic school systems teaching, who would go to that inefficient teaching mode. Is he not kidding?" Magos looked at his father in confusion.
"No, he looks very serious, McGoss. In fact, I am also a little worried about the mysterious Hogwarts. After all, none of us have learned about it and have never heard of that school, although you have always said that it is great. , very good, but your mother and I are still very worried. This time a wizard comes over and is willing to teach you, and he is my friend. I think it is good for you to learn from him, what do you think?"
"Desire?" Magos asked hesitantly.
Dumbledore looked happy when he heard his words, like a child who had stolen candy.
