Newt Scamander.
This is a legendary name. In today's day and age, students may not be aware of this man's great achievements. And Newt is not a person who wants to show off.
His efforts and efforts in the struggle between Dumbledore and Grindelwald seem to have been washed away and faded by the long river of time, leaving only a vague impression on everyone.
However, in some people's ears, the name Newt Scamander is like thunder.
Such as saints. They will never forget Newt's role in Grindelwald's defeat.
Such as Dumbledore and those around him. They all knew how much this Hufflepuff honorary student had helped Dumbledore and how much he had helped this school.
For another example, people like Luke and others who are interested in magical beasts all know the name Newt Scamander. If Dumbledore is currently the leader of all wizards in the world, he is the leader.
Then Newt is the Dumbledore of magical beasts research.
Everyone recognizes Newt's contributions and achievements... For Luke, it's not just the impressions and good feelings brought about by the movies he watched in the previous life, but also the things he heard and saw about Newt in this life. Achievements are also the source of his deep love for Newt.
So when Dumbledore first mentioned it, he immediately thought of Newt's name.
"Is that Mr. Newt Scamander?"
Luke looked at Dumbledore expectantly and asked in a positive tone.
Dumbledore really wanted to see Luke's excited expression at first, but now he looked at his close junior and admired his other close junior so much. Even though the respect level was higher than that of himself, he still felt a little bit sad.
Resisting the urge to question, he smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's Newt. It seems like you really admire him!"
After Dumbledore said this, he realized something was wrong with him, frowned, and quickly calmed down his emotions.
After living for so many years, he certainly knows that the most important thing is to keep his emotions and anger hidden.
But every time Luke was around him, he always felt like his emotions were easily out of control...
Thinking of this, Dumbledore closed his eyes.
"Of course! I don't believe that anyone who likes magical animals would not be interested in Mr. Newt."
Luke said cheerfully, obviously not ashamed of the little adoration he showed.
Newt deserves Luke's admiration, and he is old enough for Luke to call him "old man". After all, Dumbledore and Grindelwald, who were still in their prime back then, are already old.
Newt, who has a close relationship with Dumbledore and is more like a friend than a teacher and student, is so young.
Luke's words made Dumbledore open his eyes. Luke seemed to be aware of Dumbledore's eyes, or maybe he was aware of Dumbledore's silence. He turned his head and looked at Dumbledore with some confusion.
"What's wrong? Professor?"

He followed Dumbledore's gaze to Dumbledore's eyes. However, due to the upward viewing angle and the backlight, Dumbledore's half-moon eyes reflected a dazzling light. Luke could not clearly see Dumbledore's eyes through those glasses.
"No, it's nothing. I'm just feeling sad. Even Newt back then has admirers now, and he's already very old."
Dumbledore said with some emotion.
"My time has passed, and now it's not even Newt's time anymore."
When Dumbledore said this, Luke really seemed to feel like he was witnessing the passage of time.
The old man in front of him, every wrinkle on his face and every callus on his hands are the imprints left on him by time. Any one of these engravings symbolizes a story that can be called a 'legend'.
Dumbledore is a living legend.
Living history book, living history book. Some people are living history. Dumbledore not only lived a long life, he was also fundamentally different from Nico Flamel, who lived longer than him.
Nico Flamel and his wife like to watch the fun, but they don't like to create the fun themselves. Anyway, as long as the two of them want to live, they can basically live forever. So they take a break when they have no fun, and then whether it is a few years, ten years, or decades, it will pass quickly for them, and then they can start the next fun.
And waiting for decades is too little.
It usually only takes a few years, or at most a dozen years, before you will have fun, whether it is big or small, but you will definitely have it.
"Human beings are creatures that love fighting. Wizards are human beings with great personal power. Every few years, there will always be people who think they can conquer the entire world."
Nico Flamel told Luke this in a knowing tone.
Luke still can't forget Nico's expression at that time.
Indescribable lament, indescribable helplessness, and a little bit of expectation.
That was the first time Luke felt like he couldn't see someone's emotions clearly.
There isn't even a clear color, the color of emotional dust is like all the emotions intertwined together to form a dull gray.
It is neither clean and tidy white nor deep and mysterious black. Just a plain looking gray.
I don't know why, but after seeing that smear of dust, Luke felt that his control over his emotions seemed to go even further. He could even gently stir Dumbledore's emotions, instead of just touching the outer edges of the emotional dust.
But he still didn't know what the faint, scar-like ash meant.
And now, he saw the emotional dust surrounding Dumbley. Various colors are mixed and intertwined. I have seen many forms of this kind of emotional dust. But... among all the complicated emotions, Luke saw that ordinary but extremely dazzling gray.
Luke was surprised at first, and then knew that this was a rare opportunity, so he stared at the dust closely.
Dumbledore seemed to be immersed in his memories, and the expression on his face became more and more complicated.

When does a person really get old? Of course, if you look back on the past frequently and unconsciously, this person is probably really old.
The expression on his face became more and more complicated, and even a hint of pain could be seen faintly.
But Luke seemed to ignore Dumbledore's intention. He stared at the dust almost greedily, with a divine light in his eyes. In his sight, the gray was getting clearer and clearer, and he seemed to be about to understand something. But there is no real feeling.
The mysterious gray; the gray that may point the way forward for Luke; the gray that can take Luke further; the gray that makes Luke feel curious from the heart...
All of this made him feel like a beggar who had been hungry for a week and saw a luxurious meal. It's not very delicate, but it has an attractive aroma and plenty of weight.
Luke held the knife and fork in his hand, resisting the urge to go forward and feast, trying his best to maintain his noble face.
In reality, it is reflected in Luke's still calm expression, as if nothing happened.
Although at this time, Luke's hands were already tightly holding his robe in the armholes.
"Is there something behind me?"
Dumbledore finally noticed something strange about Luke. He looked at Luke's eyes and asked with some confusion for a moment.
The moment Dumbledore spoke, his mood changed, and the gray color disappeared instantly, leaving no trace, as if he had never appeared.
The muscles on both sides of Luke's cheeks suddenly tightened. He gritted his teeth and took two deep breaths. But I still feel a little dizzy. In the field of vision, except for Dumbledore's concerned face with a trace of undetectable vigilance, there were only shining spots of light that seemed to be swimming on the retina.
To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates, switch sources, read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple. 】
Luke felt deeply tired. But he clearly knew that the time was too short and he had gained nothing.
Dumbledore looked at Luke who had lost his composure, his expression became a little complicated.
The old man and the young man were silent for a long time.
Dumbledore looked at Luke who looked tired, took a long breath and said: "Luke, if your ability will put a great burden on you, then before you figure out how to deal with the disadvantages, you'd better It's better to use this ability as a trump card. Instead of practicing often and thinking that practice makes perfect."
"Innate ability can be said to have been determined almost at the moment of birth. Very few, or basically no, people can complete the quality of their innate ability without converting it into innate magic. improvement."
When Dumbledore said this, his tone was extremely sincere. He was really willing to give Luke such advice. Lest Luke really go astray.
The reason why he cares so much about Luke now, besides being uneasy about Luke, is naturally because he believes that he can guide Luke to avoid detours. Not only in terms of improvement in strength, but also in terms of Luke's character, path, and concepts.

Even if he doesn't become the 'savior' where justice and love dominate his heart as he expected. We can no longer follow the path of no return like Tom or Grindelwald.
For Dumbledore, Luke is also his own salvation. This boy, who is very similar to Grindelwald and is considered Tom's grandfather in the genealogy, is part of his reflection on education.
He didn't teach Tom well back then, so he can't follow the same old path now.
Luke could feel the heavy trust in Dumbledore's voice. This also gave him a sigh of relief.
"It's nothing, Professor, it's just that it was a little overused." Luke said calmly, "I didn't do anything to you. I just saw something in you that I had only seen in Nico before. I don’t know what it is and I’m curious about what it is.”
After hearing what he said, Dumbledore was a little confused: "What is it?"
Luke didn't hide it either: "A touch of gray. There is gray all around you. But Nico probably has it all, and you only have a hint."
Dumbledore fell silent at Luke's words. But after thinking for a long time, he just shook his head.
"Taimo Lake, I can't tell clearly. If you have a chance, take another look. Maybe you can tell something."
If the same thing happens to Dumbledore for the second time, then Dumbledore will almost know what Luke saw, or what he could see...
Luke nodded and took a deep breath again, his condition obviously improved a lot.
"Okay, Professor."
Across the table, Dumbledore patted Luke's shoulder gently, with a gentle smile on his face: "Go home and have a good rest. When you are ready, give me the news and I will contact Magic Yin. Ni people."
"If you want that right, no one can take it away."
Dumbledore had a dull smile on his face when he said this.
It's like you don't need to care about this matter at all, and it's not difficult.
Luke looked at Dumbledore, feeling Dumbledore's protection for him, and nodded.
Of course he wanted this right, and wanted the ownership of that part of the Yinfa Mo Ni that he had picked up.
This is undoubtedly an excellent hiding hole for this cunning rabbit.
Which one can be used as a fallback approach. So naturally it is impossible to miss it.
…………
The first thing Luke did when he got home was to throw himself on the sofa. Then he rubbed his temples on both sides vigorously.
It was uncomfortable, really uncomfortable. The acid water in my stomach was pushing up to my throat, and my brain was still too confused to react. It was only after the acid water was pressed back into my stomach for a second or two that I felt the slightest bit of discomfort and sourness.
The whole figure seemed to be out of coordination between his soul and his body, and there was a gap of several seconds between his reaction and his movements.
And at this moment, he suddenly felt a warmth emerging from his chest.
Did you feel a blockage in your chest before, as if a big stone had been moved away? The whole person suddenly became enlightened.
Luke could almost feel the growth in his limbs. It was completely different from the tearing feeling when drinking the growth potion. This time it felt more like a feeling of release. It was as if a large amount of energy accumulated in the body had been released, and the whole person felt an indescribable sense of relief.

[Hogwarts: Pureblood Glory] []
Luke's body and limbs were growing proportionally. Soon, he changed from the appearance of an eight or nine-year-old child at the beginning to the appearance of an eleven or twelve-year-old child.
Don't underestimate these years. It is a time when changes are relatively big.
But when he reached the age of eleven or twelve, Luke's growth did not stop, but continued to grow. However, this time, only the height, arm span, etc. were increasing, and the corresponding muscles were not. There is little development.
This lasted for about ten minutes.
When Luke got up, his pants were already a bit too short. Because the clothes were of good quality, they were not stretched out, but they made Luke uncomfortable.
So he held the wand and lightly scratched his shirt.
The shirt was torn, and Luke felt relieved.
Then with some anxiety, he dragged his feeble limbs to the wardrobe not far away, not only because there were clothes there, but also because there was a big mirror there.
It stands to reason that drinking the potion will return you to your original appearance. But Luke knew that he was definitely different now than before.
There is no doubt that it was Snape's hands and feet.
So...what is the effect?
He walked towards the mirror step by step. He rushes to the execution ground with a little bit of bravery, as if he is going to die.
