A few minutes later, John left Hogwarts satisfied with the key to the Potter family's vault, leaving a speechless Dumbledore in the principal's office holding a few flaming feathers and lost in thought - and Fox was hiding in the corner, holding his butt that was missing a few tail feathers and moaning.
Yes, the reward John mentioned was picking up a few Fox feathers.
As a high-quality target for time-travelers who are almost bound to lose their hair, how could John let this guy go?
So before Dumbledore and Fox could react, John took a leap of faith and pulled Fox to his side, and then rudely pulled off three feathers.
Leap of Faith - a high-level priest skill that can release a beam of holy light and pull the target to its side.
In the game, this skill can only be used on teammates.
But in reality, this skill can be used against any unprepared person or thing.
Even if the opponent is on guard, as long as the opponent does not have the strength to resist you, you can still forcefully pull him over.
There is no doubt that Fox, who was just watching the two people talking from the birdstand, was pulled over by John without any precautions at all.
Before it could react, there was a pain on its buttocks, and its three tail feathers completely left it.
Then before Dumbledore could speak, John threw three feathers in front of him that looked very similar to Fawkes' tail feathers, and clearly looked like they were burning with flames, but did not cause any damage, and then said, "I won't take advantage of you either. , three for three!”
After saying that, he left the other party's office.
There is no doubt that the feathers that John dropped were those of the flamingo.
Although the phoenix is extremely precious in the Harry Potter world, it is a top magical animal and has many magical abilities.
But there is no doubt that as a legendary Pokémon in the Pokémon world, Flamebird is no less rare than Phoenix, and it also has many special abilities.
The only thing inferior to the Phoenix is that the Flame Bird has no ability to cast magic.
But similarly, in terms of combat effectiveness or destructive power, ten phoenixes are probably not as good as one flame bird.
Therefore, John did not take advantage of Dumbledore in this transaction, in fact, Dumbledore actually took advantage.
But John's purpose was not to take advantage, he just wanted to make Dumbledore feel disgusted.
After all, Flamebird's feathers were given to him voluntarily, while Fox's feathers were forcibly plucked out by John.
That’s right, what’s the current crime?
And Dumbledore couldn't say anything else because John gave him three feathers that were obviously more precious.
In this regard, Dumbledore said that he had lived for more than a hundred years and had never seen anything like John.
Is this stuff really taught by the church?
For a moment, Dumbledore doubted the correctness of his previous agreement to have academic exchanges with the church. What if this thing led the students of his school astray?
John had no idea what Dumbledore was thinking.
Even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much, because the other party wouldn't be able to fire him because of such a trivial matter.
At this time, he had happily returned home with Fox's feathers, and then drove the car to pick up his little cousin.
"I thought I wouldn't be able to go to Diagon Alley today!" Hermione was very happy to see John's arrival. John had called her to inform her that he had something to do, and she thought she wouldn't be able to go to Diagon Alley today, which was a bit regretful.
As a result, within half an hour, John came again.
"Haha, something happened. Come on, this little gift is my apology!" John smiled and handed Hermione a Fox tail feather as she got into the back seat of the car.
"Eh? What kind of bird feather is this? It's so beautiful!" Hermione's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw this fiery red feather, and she hurriedly took it. "Eh? There's also temperature, it feels so warm!"
"This is the tail feather of the phoenix. It is a good magic material. It can be used in alchemy, potions, and wands. Even if you just carry it with you, it can also have various functions such as exorcising evil spirits, keeping warm, restoring physical strength, and keeping your mind clear. "John explained, "It is said that it can also bring good luck to people!"
"Phoenix? Have you seen a phoenix? Does it look good?" Hermione asked excitedly.
"Didn't you read the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them? Aren't there pictures in that book?" Seeing her curiosity, John couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, of course, but I always felt that the phoenix painted in that book was a little different from what I imagined. It looked like a red parrot. I thought it was the author's imagination and random drawing." Hermione said John's words.
"Ha, Newt Scamander is not comparable to Lockhart. The magical animals he depicts are all ones he has seen and come into contact with with his own eyes. He is a magical creature in the true sense. Zoologist... In fact, if the phoenix does not inspire the fire in its body, it will look like that..." John said, ruthlessly attacking the little girl's fantasy, while also not forgetting to praise Newt Scamander. .
This somewhat autistic magizoologist is indeed worthy of respect.
However, he quite agreed with Hermione's statement. The phoenixes in this world were indeed not very pretty, and were far less gorgeous than the flame birds.
"Okay, but at least its magic is real!" Hermione was a very practical little girl. She quickly accepted the reality that the phoenix was not as beautiful as she imagined, and still happily kept the tail feather close to her body.
Although it was summer, the amazing thing was that this feather did not make her feel any heat, but made her feel very comfortable.
But soon, she discovered something was wrong, because John did not take her directly to central London, but was heading further away.
"Where are we going?" Hermione asked in confusion upon seeing this.
"Go pick up another child, a freshman at Hogwarts like you. It was because of him that we were delayed a lot of time!" John replied, "Because he is an orphan and has never been exposed to the magical world before he became sensible. So someone needs to guide him.”
"Oh? What's his name?" Hermione asked casually.
"Harry Potter!" John replied.
"Oh, it turns out to be Harry Potter...wait, who are you talking about?" Hermione didn't react at first, but then her eyes widened.
"Yes, that's the Harry Potter we talked about before!" John confirmed the answer to her.
"But...how could it be?" Hermione was a little unbelievable. Although John had told her before that Harry Potter was not as special as rumored, this did not change that in the magical world, Harry Potter was indeed Facts about a celebrity.
So she still showed a hint of surprise.
"Ha, don't be so surprised. We will be classmates from now on, and you will see him almost every day!" John smiled and parked the car in front of a community church.
It was the church where Father Thomas was.
At this time, Harry was happily enjoying the morning tea that originally belonged to Father Thomas in the church.
