Chapter 37 What I See in the Mirror

This is an unused classroom. Many desks and chairs are piled haphazardly against the wall, showing a large dark shadow. There is also a wastepaper basket upside down on the ground.

The entire classroom looked completely abandoned as no one had used it for a long time.

On the opposite side of the classroom is a very impressive mirror that reaches as high as the ceiling.

Under the mirror's ornate golden frame, two claw-shaped feet support the mirror.

Engraved on the top of the mirror is a line of small words:

"Eris Stella Ohru Ayite Ubi Kafulu Ayiteon Voorhees

(Erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi).”

It took Harry several times to read the words.

After all, the witch is a master at playing with magic mirrors. Harley knows that many magic mirrors show special effects by making the victim read specific words.

After reading this line of text, Harley frowned.

She didn't sense danger from the mirror, so she decided to study the mirror.

Harry stood in front of the mirror, ready to change positions with the wand outside the mirror's reflection range.

Then, Harley looked in the mirror. She was stunned.

Harley saw a statue under her feet in the mirror, a statue of an evil god.

That statue is the original witch.

"What does this mean?" Harley quickly interpreted the message conveyed in the mirror.

“The mirror reflects the future?

I step on the original witch, have I usurped her authority and mastered the power of the disaster realm?

I...I will become a god in the future?"

In shock, Harley's spirituality suddenly fluctuated violently, and she automatically exited the invisible state.

But Harry didn't pay attention, but frowned, thinking about the message he wanted to convey in the mirror.

"That's not right." Harley thought to herself,

"The original witch is not in this world, how could I have the chance to kill her?

And if this mirror really predicts the future, how does it know about the existence of the original witch?

But this is indeed what I long for. I also want to become a god, destroy the witch sect that has been chasing me, and kill the evil god they serve.

Wait a minute, this is what I crave!"

Harry couldn't help but read out the last sentence:

"Yes, this mirror reflects what I long for! It's the longing of my heart!"

While saying this, Harley quickly mobilized her spirituality and sealed her consciousness to prevent it from being probed by outside forces.

Sure enough, after Harley closed her consciousness, the image in the mirror disappeared.

Suddenly there was a burst of applause in the room.

"It's beyond my expectation, Harry." An old voice sounded.

The spirituality in Harry's body was instantly active, and she could switch with the wand at any time, but she did not take direct action yet, but looked in the mirror.

After Harley closed her consciousness, the mirror really became an ordinary mirror.

So Harry could clearly see from the smooth mirror that an old man was appearing bit by bit.

The old man is the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Albus Dumbledore.

"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore." Harry immediately turned around and bowed slightly.

"Good evening, Harry," Professor Dumbledore said softly, "although this is not a suitable time to say hello.

If I remember correctly, you should be in your warm bed in the girls' dormitory in Gryffindor Tower now, instead of blowing the cold air in the abandoned classroom with an old man like me."

"I'm sorry, Professor Dumbledore." Harry's brain was running rapidly, and she guessed that when she invaded the library, an unknown defense system directly alerted Principal Dumbledore.

So, based on this situation, the principal has most likely discovered that he took a book from the restricted book area, and is monitoring his every move.

But all this is uncertain.

Therefore, Halle simply apologized directly without saying what she was apologizing for.

If the principal does not have all the evidence of his violations, wouldn’t it be a loss if he admits too much?

"There is nothing to apologize for. If Gryffindor students don't go out at night, can they still be called Gryffindor?" Dumbledore walked to the mirror with a smile.

"I was also a Gryffindor student, and I went out at night many times. But luckily, I was never caught by my headmaster.

After all, I have some talent, and I barely learned the invisibility spell that makes me invisible."

Harley didn't answer, just stood aside, looking down at the ground.

Dumbledore didn't say anything more, but changed the topic:

"Harry, I'm curious, how do you determine that this mirror reflects what you desire in your heart?

What exactly did you see? I wonder if you can share it with me, an old man?"

Harley certainly can't say that she saw the scene of herself stepping on the original witch and holding up the Kingdom of God.

She hesitated slightly and said in a small voice: "I...I saw my deceased parents."

Professor Dumbledore fell silent and stopped stroking the mirror.

After a few seconds of silence, Professor Dumbledore nodded: "Yes, I saw my deceased parents.

This is such a sad thing. So you deduce that this mirror reflects what your heart desires most?"

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore." Harry replied softly, with unconcealed sadness in her voice.

"A very reasonable inference." Professor Dumbledore nodded.

"This mirror is called the Mirror of Erised. I believe you also saw the words on the mirror.

If you read it upside down, you will find, 'What I show is not your mirror image, but your inner desire.'

(I show not your face but your hearts desire).

As the saying goes, you can see in this mirror our most urgent and strongest desires deep in our hearts..."

Dumbledore softly described the information about the mirror, and finally added:

"I'm very happy, Harley. You have a strong will and got rid of the temptation of this mirror the first time you came into contact with it."

Harry nodded silently, then suddenly raised his head and asked in a curious voice: "Professor Dumbledore, what did you see when you looked in the mirror?"

"Me?" Professor Dumbledore laughed softly, "I saw myself holding a pair of thick wool socks."

Woolen socks? Harry looked suspicious. However, Professor Dumbledore did not explain, but stood up.

"Harry, I think it's time for you to go back to the dormitory. I also need to take a rest. After all, I have to move this mirror to another place tomorrow."

"Okay, Professor." Harley replied obediently and quickly left the classroom.

Professor Dumbledore did not leave immediately, but looked around seriously, and took out his wand and tapped it a few times.

After ensuring that the classroom was completely covered by magic and that no one would break into the room and do anything that might damage the mirror, Dumbledore left.

(Thanks to Wu Shi_my heart is like a fire for the reward!)

Build up your anticipation in advance, Amon will make a formal move soon.
