Chapter 610 Peter, This Sword Will Swing for You!
Ciri suddenly woke up from her sleep.
The moment she saw the shadow, she subconsciously grabbed the dagger beside the pillow and stabbed at the shadow.
Unexpectedly, before her dagger stabbed out, the shadow reached out and grabbed her dagger.
Shocked, Ciri subconsciously wanted to fight back.
The next moment, the shadow's voice came, which made her stunned.
"Shh, Ciri, it's me!"
Ciri was stunned when she heard Peter's voice.
She didn't expect that the shadow who appeared in her room would be Peter!
"Teacher?!"
Peter took a step forward, his face revealed under the moonlight.
"Sorry, Ciri, I woke you up in this way. I was playing Gwent with you in my dream just now, but you seemed a little addicted to it."
Peter just entered Ciri's dream and wanted to wake her up. Unexpectedly, Ciri only had Gwent in her dream world, and other things could not be heard by her at all.
"Am I addicted to it?"
Ciri asked in surprise.
She thought Peter was the card master, but she didn't expect that she would become the one addicted to Gwent.
"Hmm."
Peter didn't continue to talk to her about this topic, but said to her: "We have a mission tonight and have to go to Hogwarts. Ciri, you can open the portal to the Hogwarts world now, right?"
Ciri nodded and said, "Yes, but why do we have to go to Hogwarts?"
Ciri asked in confusion.
"You'll know when you go there."
After listening to Peter's words, Ciri didn't ask any more questions and got up to open the portal.
Hogwarts.
As it was late at night, the whole school was shrouded in the night.
Ciri and Peter stood in front of the school, watching the castle hidden in the darkness.
"What should we do next?"
Ciri said to Peter curiously: "I remember that there are ghosts in the school. If we wander around the castle, we will definitely be discovered."
"If you can be invisible, you won't be discovered."
Peter said as he handed the invisibility powder to Ciri.
Ciri took the invisibility powder in astonishment.
She was getting more and more confused about what Peter was going to do.
Although she felt that this was inappropriate, she still took the invisibility powder and followed Peter into the school invisibly.
Outside the principal's office, Peter casually pushed open the principal's office and let Ciri in.
"Is this the Dumbledore's principal's office you mentioned? Teacher."
Ciri looked at the furnishings in the principal's office and the portraits hanging on the wall, and asked Peter carefully.
"Yes, Dumbledore's principal's office."
Peter didn't seem to feel anything wrong about trespassing into the principal's office. He walked directly to the shelf on the wall and took down the Sorting Hat from it.
"What is this?"
Seeing Peter take out the Sorting Hat, Ciri's face was full of astonishment.
"The Sorting Hat, it hides a sword, this sword called 'Gryffindor' sword, it was forged by the goblin king Ragnac I, but not everyone can take the sword out of the hat, it must be someone with extraordinary courage."
Peter said to Ciri while handing her the Sorting Hat.
Ciri took a deep breath, looked up and asked Peter: "Teacher, you called me in the middle of the night, is it because of this? Do you want me to take out the sword of Gryffindor?"
Peter nodded, "Yes, you said before that you had been to King Arthur's world, just like King Arthur once took out the sword in the stone, if you have extraordinary courage, Ciri, you can also pull out the sword of Gryffindor like King Arthur pulled out the sword in the stone."
Ciri listened to Peter's words and was slightly moved.
Although she felt a little amused that Peter sneaked into the principal's office in the middle of the night, took the school's property and said that he hoped to pull out the "Sword in the Stone".
Sure enough, her teacher is not a good person!
But
It seems not bad that the man whose fate is connected with her has this kind of character.
Ciri, who never follows the rules, glanced at Peter, and with the other's encouraging eyes, she reached into the Sorting Hat.
She actually touched a hilt of a sword in the hat that was originally empty.
With a shocked look, she slowly took out the sword inlaid with rubies.
"Is this the Sword of Gryffindor?!"
Ciri looked at the cold light flashing slightly on the surface of the blade and looked up at Peter.
Peter didn't feel too strange that Ciri could take out the Sword of Gryffindor.
He nodded slightly to the other party.
"Yes, this is the Sword of Gryffindor, you have its recognition, Ciri."
Ciri held the sword and felt the power transmitted to her by the sword, "Can I really have it?"
Although she was excited, she still confirmed it with Peter again.
"Of course, I have already talked to Principal Dumbledore."
Peter smiled at her, indicating that his behavior was legal.
Ciri: "."
She naturally didn't believe what Peter said.
Holding the sword, Ciri felt that it seemed to be in tune with her heart in an instant.
She was reluctant to let it go, and did not dwell on whether Peter and her actions were legal or not. She raised her head, and her emerald eyes sparkled in the night.
Ciri bit her lip and asked Peter, "Peter, why are you willing to take such a big risk for me? After all, you might have offended the headmaster of Hogwarts."
"Actually, Ciri, what you don't know is that Dumbledore and I are old friends."
Peter shrugged his shoulders at her and sat on the sofa next to him. "Besides, didn't I promise you? I'll take your silver sword and give you a more suitable sword."
"This is indeed a more suitable sword."
Ciri exhaled, walked to Peter and looked into his eyes.
"Peter, this sword will swing for you."
Ciri said to Peter with a sincere expression.
She found that the other party's position in her heart was getting more and more important, but she was not sure what her feelings for Peter were.
It was a kind of father-daughter feeling similar to that of Geralt, but more than that.
"Then I look forward to it."
At the same time.
Harry was walking in the corridor of Hogwarts Castle with his wand.
"Peter Pettigrew?"
The name that appeared on the Marauder's Map shocked Harry.
He had secretly listened to Professor McGonagall and Fudge talking about Peter Pettigrew in the "Three Broomsticks" bar before.
According to Professor McGonagall, Peter Pettigrew was Black's follower.
The evil Sirius Black killed Peter Pettigrew.
Why did I see Peter Pettigrew's name on the Marauder's Map?
Puzzled, Harry didn't even wear socks. He cast a magic wand to illuminate Peter Pettigrew's path on the Marauder's Map while walking forward.
No mistakes!
"Turn off the lights!"
The people in the portraits in the corridor were illuminated by Harry's magic, and they covered their eyes and shouted at him rudely.
"Sorry."
Harry quickly made the magic a little darker.
When he walked to the headmaster's office, Harry's eyes froze.
Because he saw the names of Peter Padrick and Cirilla Fiona Ellen Lillian on the Marauder's Map.
"Mr. Padrick?!"
Harry's face was full of disbelief.
"How could it be?"
How could Mr. Padrick appear in the principal's office in the middle of the night? !
At first it was Peter Pettigrew, and then it was Mr. Padrick again. Could it be that the Marauder's Map was wrong?
Harry swallowed his saliva and walked slowly towards the principal's office.
Just after turning the corner, he saw the sign of "Peter Padrick" on the map walking towards him.
Harry was nervous and held the wand tightly in his hand.
But at the same time, he saw another name appear on the map.
Harry quickly recited the spell "The prank is over, Knox" to the Marauder's Map, closed the Marauder's Map, and extinguished the lighting magic on the wand.
The moment he extinguished the lighting magic, the lighting magic on the opposite side suddenly lit up.
Snape's tense face came into his sight.
"Potter!"
"It's so late, why are you wandering in the corridor?"
Snape looked at him with a sinister look.
"Sleepwalking."
Harry said without blushing or panting.
"You are so much like your father, Potter."
Snape moved closer to him, "Wandering around the castle with a haughty attitude."
When Snape criticized his father, Harry said unceremoniously, "My father is not haughty, and neither am I. Sorry, please put your wand down."
Snape stared at Harry's eyes for a while, then turned his gaze to his pocket.
"Now, Potter, take out what's in your pocket."
Harry was pointed at by the wand and had to take out the Marauder's Map in his pocket.
"What is this?"
"A blank piece of parchment."
"Really? Open it."
Harry had no choice but to open the Marauder's Map.
If it was not opened by a spell, it would only show a blank piece of parchment, which would not dispel Snape's doubts.
"Secret Manifestation!"
Snape recited a spell to make the blank parchment appear with handwriting.
Before he could see what the handwriting was, a voice came from behind him.
"Professor Snape."
Snape turned around abruptly and looked at the person who came.
"It's Professor Lupin. It's so late. Are you going to take a walk in the moonlight?"
Lupin ignored Snape's sarcasm and walked over to Harry and asked, "Are you okay, Harry?"
"Not very well."
Snape held the Marauder's Map in his hand, "You must be good at this, Lupin, is this dark magic?"
Lupin took the map directly from the other party, "No, this is just a prank. Whoever opens it will be scolded. Look, there are only some swear words on it."
Lupin covered for Harry, "It's probably a product of Zoker. I'll take it back and study it later."
Sending Snape away, Lupin called Harry to the hall and scolded him.
"A murderer is looking for you, Harry, and you actually appear here openly. If this map is obtained by Sirius, what will happen to you?"
"I'm sorry, professor."
Lupin said to him, "Let's go. I will confiscate this map. Don't go out at night without permission in the future."
Harry nodded and left with a heavy heart.
But he quickly stopped, "Professor, I saw impossible names on the map."
"What names?"
"I saw Peter Pettigrew and Mr. Peter Padrick's name."
"Impossible!"
