Chapter 377 Meeting Parents for the First Time (Please Vote for Me!)
Scottish Highlands, Hogwarts Castle, ten o'clock in the morning.
The class bell at Hogwarts has been ringing for some time. Except for Elena who took (tao) leave (ke) and some idle old people, most of the teachers and students were already sitting in their respective classrooms. In the classroom, a new day of study began.
In order to prevent the embarrassing situation of the "real and fake Dumbledore" meeting, Elena specially set the time for the Lovegood family's visit in such a range that no one would disturb them.
As for how to ensure that everything will proceed according to the planned schedule, this is very simple in the wizarding world - just temporarily create a timed activation door key. For Grindelwald, this is not a troublesome matter. .
As the hour hand on the tower moved tremblingly to ten o'clock, the next moment, a distorted light and shadow flashed, and two figures, one tall and one short, appeared on the viaduct in front of the main entrance of Hogwarts Castle.
"Dad, is this Hogwarts?"
Luna raised her head and looked at the majestic and ancient castle with numerous spiers in front of her, her eyes filled with curiosity.
"Yes, this is Hogwarts Castle."
Xenophilius Lovegood nodded absently, his eyes falling on the figure not far ahead, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes - indeed, it was really Albus Dumbledore.
Mr. Lovegood subconsciously tightened the letter in his hand, and the light blue halo on it was slowly dissipating.
Portkeys are not an uncommon form of magic.
In fact, before the opening of the Hogwarts Express, one of the ways for students to go to Hogwarts was to use the door keys given by the school in advance. When the wizarding world held some large-scale competitions or concerts, they would occasionally Will take the form of a door key. (Note 1)
But generally speaking, as the preset time and distance of the door key becomes longer, and the fragility of the carrying object becomes larger, the actual difficulty and accuracy of casting the spell can be said to increase exponentially.
Similar to this kind of magic control, which can span most of the UK (from Devon to the Scottish Highlands) and accurately locate a bridge after almost a whole day, there is no one in the entire magic world who can do it. There are only a handful of them.
"Professor Dumbledore, long time no see."
Xenophilius Lovegood calmed down, walked forward with his daughter in hand, and took the initiative to say hello.
Since Dumbledore chose to meet at Hogwarts Castle, it was a friendly attitude of willingness to communicate. Because of this, Xenophilius Lovegood finally agreed to bring his daughter with him.
Compared with leaving his daughter who is less than ten years old alone at home, he feels that this is more reassuring.
the other side……
Is this Luna and her father?
As described in the original novel, Xenophilius Lovegood looks slightly different. His marshmallow-like white hair hangs on his shoulders. The man is wearing an egg-yellow robe, the color is dazzling.
There is a gold chain hanging around the wizard's neck, with a strange triangular eye symbol flashing on it - the Deathly Hallows.
Her eyes paused for a moment on the Deathly Hallows pendant on Mr. Lovegood's chest. Elena curled her lips noncommittally and quickly moved her eyes away from the man, looking around like a chick that had just emerged from the nest. Luna little loli.
Luna has waist-long light blond hair, mixed with a bit of brown. Because she hasn't taken care of it much, it looks a bit messy, and her eyebrows are very light in color.
Perhaps due to heredity, Luna's eyes also bulged slightly outwards, which made her eyes a little hazy and looked dazed, exuding a strange and erratic temperament.
Elena carefully looked at the father and daughter in front of her, and nodded with satisfaction - fortunately, the painting style did not collapse.
At the same time, Dumbledore's blue eyes looked at Lovegood, who was walking over, and nodded gently.
"Good morning, Xenophilius, nice to see you again. But..."
After a slight pause, the old man turned aside to let Elena stand beside him, and continued with a smile.
"The protagonist today is not me, but this child. I am just accompanying and supplementing him."
Um? child?
Xenophilius Lovegood was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed the silver-haired little witch standing next to the old wizard. Before, he was too nervous, and he had almost paid all his attention to Dumbledore. On Lido.
The next moment, Lovegood's eyes suddenly shrank, and his eyes were fixed on Elena's chest.
I saw a pendant that was almost exactly the same as his hanging on the girl's chest, and a vague magical luster flashed across the surface of the pendant. Apparently, unlike the ornament he was carrying, this was a real magical item.
"Hello, Mr. Lovegood, first time meeting you."
Elena took a small step forward, stretched out a hand towards Xenophilius Lovegood, and said openly.
"Let me introduce myself, Elena Kaslana, abbreviated as A.K., pen name is Teresa Apokalis, first year of Hufflepuff House, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, ten years old this year. I want to, These names should be familiar to you, right?"
"Wait a minute! Speaking of which, it's you..."
Xenophilius Lovegood lowered his head and looked at the little guy in front of him who was about 1.2 meters tall. His face was full of astonishment. He opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a moment - ten years old? ! Isn't that the same age as his little Luna?
You know, before coming to Hogwarts, Lovegood imagined many scenarios and assumptions in advance.
What he didn't expect was that for so many days, the arrogant, cruel, bad, and shrewd "kidnapper Mr. A.K." in his impression was actually a little girl who barely managed to bump into his chest when she jumped up.
"I know, maybe it's hard for you to accept for a while, but you have to admit that there are geniuses in this world..."
Elena spread her hands, raised her eyebrows quite proudly, and was about to continue to boast a few words.
Suddenly, a small white hand spread out in front of her eyes, almost poking her nose directly.
"[Horned Snorlax]."
Luna Lovegood looked into Elena's eyes and said with a serious face, "You promised in your letter before that as long as I come to Hogwarts, you will return my [Snorkel] to me. ."
"Don't worry, of course I will return it to you."
Facing Luna's clear silver-gray eyes, Elena unconsciously looked away, swallowed, and explained nervously.
"As you can see, there is no place to hide an owl on my body. So, if you want that little flat-headed guy, you have to come with me to my...well, the Hufflepuff girls' dormitory. ."
