Hogwarts' Golden Glory

"You...you...you..."

Kane's eyes widened, he pointed at Dumbledore, opened his mouth several times, but couldn't say a word for a while.

He was filled with astonishment and confusion: How could this old man hear their conversation?

Dumbledore, on the other hand, had a faint smile on his face.

His expression showed no remorse whatsoever, as if it were all perfectly natural.

Kane cursed Dumbledore in his mind, thinking to himself: "That old bee, eavesdropping, how could he do such a thing!"

The thought that my previous reckless remarks might have reached the other party's ears made me very sad.

Kane was filled with annoyance, feeling that he was in big trouble. He had even gossiped about Kane's ex-lover, and now everything was exposed.

However, Dumbledore seemed to see through Kane's thoughts and remained all smiles.

She added softly, "You think I can't hear you? I never said I couldn't hear you."

That tone sounded utterly innocent.

Kane was speechless, rolled his eyes, and thought to himself: This guy, he's really good at this trick!

But there's nothing we can do right now, so we can only sigh inwardly.

Fortunately, Dumbledore didn't dwell on the matter.

She quickly changed the subject, looking at Kane with a smile, and asked, "You mean, you have a way to turn all Muggles into wizards?"

Kane pursed his lips and replied with a helpless expression, "Just because it's not happening now doesn't mean it won't happen in the future."

He knew perfectly well that this matter couldn't be revealed now, as it was still in the experimental stage.

But he believed that he was on the right path!

"Then what are you saying here?" Upon hearing this, Professor Old was so angry that he plopped down on the bench, his expression a mix of amusement and exasperation.

He had thought Kane had some amazing trick up his sleeve, but it turned out to be something that was still far from being realized. This contrast was a bit hard for him to accept.

A barely perceptible glint flashed in Dumbledore's eyes, as if he had fallen into deep thought.

He recalled his meeting with Grindelwald a few days ago, and the prophecy Grindelwald brought with him left him deeply troubled.

Back then, before Harry was even born, Voldemort's shadow already loomed over him. He desperately searched for a way to defeat Voldemort, but repeatedly ran into obstacles.

In desperation, he wrote a letter to Grindelwald, hoping to gain some inspiration from his former rival.

But Grindelwald's reply was like a bucket of cold water, stating bluntly that he would die.

At that time, Dumbledore was already prepared to die.

After all, he had experienced many hardships and lost a lot in his life. In the end, he was all alone, so there was nothing to fear.

However, Grindelwald's reappearance has brought a turning point—the prophecy has changed!

Voldemort is destined to be defeated, and Harry and he himself may escape his fate.

His long-held ideal of harmonious coexistence between wizards and Muggles seems to be on the verge of being realized.

All of this stemmed from the young Kane standing before them.

So, after his deep conversation with Grindelwald that day, Dumbledore made up his mind to get to know the boy and see what kind of changes he could bring to the wizarding world.

Looking at Kane, Dumbledore became even more certain that this boy might actually be able to create a miracle.

It rewrites the way wizards and Muggles have interacted for thousands of years.

Thinking of this, Dumbledore gently changed the subject, smiling as he said to Kane, "Alright, I believe Mr. Kane will definitely bring us unexpected surprises in the future! By the way, Mr. Kane, regarding your studies of Animagus, you can consult Professor Ald; he is a master of Transfiguration."

Kane was surprised to hear this. How amazing must a Transfiguration master be to be praised like this by Dumbledore!

His heart was filled with curiosity and anticipation, and his gaze involuntarily fell upon Professor Old.

"Oh? You've already made contact with the Animagus?"

Professor Old was also slightly surprised; he hadn't expected Kane, at such a young age, to have ventured into such a profound realm of magic.

However, after his initial surprise, his expression quickly turned serious. His gaze fixed intently on Kane, and he said, "Kid, I have a spell here, extremely dangerous, but it allows you to transform into anyone else at will! Want to try it?"

Kane's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this, and he replied without hesitation, "Of course I want to learn! But are there any restrictions?"

He knew in his heart that this kind of heaven-defying magic must be extraordinary, but he was the kind of person who got more excited the more challenging it was.

Professor Old nodded slightly and said to him solemnly, "This is a magic I learned after studying an ancient book for a long time, and it has helped me a lot in the past."

"But the learning process is much more difficult than with Animagus. A slight mistake could cost you your life. You'd better think it through and be sure you can do it."

Hermione, who was standing nearby, felt a sudden pang in her heart upon hearing this and quickly reached out to pull Kane back.

She was utterly shocked. She had read about Animagus magic in a book before.

Professor McGonagall is an Animagus, and there were only seven registered wizards in the entire Ministry of Magic in the 20th century, which shows how difficult it is.

Right now, the magic this professor is about to teach Kane sounds even more dangerous than the Animagus. How can she bear to watch Kane take such a risk?

Kane, without the slightest hesitation, his gaze unwavering, declared resolutely, "I can do it!"

On the one hand, he believed that the principal and professors would never turn a blind eye to his danger;

On the other hand, he believed that if this professor could learn it, there was no reason why he couldn't!

This shows his trust in Dumbledore, Professor Alder, and himself!

"Good lad, I knew I hadn't misjudged you! Don't worry, as long as you follow my instructions diligently, I'll guarantee your safety!"

Professor Old patted Kane on the shoulder with satisfaction, his face full of admiration.

Kane's lips curled up slightly, secretly relieved: as expected, he was right, the professor and the others would definitely support him.

Hermione felt a little more at ease seeing this, since the professor didn't seem like a bad person.

With Dumbledore there to oversee things, Kane shouldn't cause any problems.

Seeing that Kane had agreed, Professor Old crouched down and began rummaging through his trunk.

Before long, he had a strange object in his hand—a six-sided cube that emitted a dazzling light.

Each side is densely covered with ancient magical runes.

"This is a treasure I went through countless hardships to obtain; you're lucky, kid!"

Professor Old proudly displayed the object in his hand, his eyes filled with appreciation for it.

Upon closer inspection, the object resembled a Rubik's Cube, prompting a look of curiosity from the group.

Dumbledore squinted and examined the Rubik's Cube closely.

For some reason, a strong sense of danger welled up in my heart, as if this seemingly ordinary object concealed a huge crisis.

Why haven't we seen Gellert take this thing out before?

Professor Old looked at Kane, his gaze questioning, "If you're ready, I'll take you in now."

"Professor, you don't mean you want to go inside, do you?"

Hermione stared wide-eyed at the Rubik's Cube, her face full of doubt and worry.

"Little girl, that's right!" Professor Old's face beamed with pride; he knew all too well the power of this treasure.

He was both excited and looking forward to passing on his knowledge to Kane.

Then he looked at Kane, a hint of provocation in his eyes: "What, are you scared? When I went in, I didn't get the treatment you have now. I didn't even have anyone to look after me. You're much luckier than me!"

Kane, however, looked confident. He knew his own strength and was naturally not afraid of such unknown dangers.

"Once you're inside, you must try to understand it with your heart," Professor Old added as a reminder.

Professor Alder then waved his wand and chanted, "Illusion activated, scene unfolds!"

In an instant, the Rubik's Cube shone brightly, and a dazzling, dreamlike portal of light appeared out of thin air.

The object, which resembled a Rubik's Cube, shone brightly, and a dazzling portal appeared.

Upon seeing this, Kane suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. He instinctively took out his wand, "Starshadow," from his waist.

At this moment, "Star Shadow" was trembling violently, emitting waves of excited magic.

Kane recalled the last time this happened when he passed by the Black Lake, and how much trouble it took him to calm the restless wand back then.

He later discovered that his dormitory was at the bottom of Black Lake, and "Star Shadow" seemed to be extremely sensitive to something at the bottom of the lake, often making strange movements.

Having just arrived at Hogwarts, he was busy with many things and hadn't had time to find out what had caused the wand to react this way.

Now, with the appearance of this portal of light, "Star Shadow" has become excited again?
