Bathilda Bagshot, Grindelwald's aunt, was Dumbledore's friend and neighbor in Godric's Hollow. She was an excellent historian and the author of "A History of Magic."
Bree looked at the Sword of Gryffindor in Mrs. Bashat's hand, and in surprise she also understood her other identity.
"She is a descendant of Gryffindor." Helena suddenly appeared and came to the crowd, looking at Bree with a complicated look.
Bashat also walked up. She looked old, but she pointed her sword at Peeves.
"You are not allowed to withdraw from the knight's life-and-death duel."
"I'm not trying to duel you, you old witch!"
shouted Peeves.
"This is a duel written into a contract. You have no spirit of contract, Black Dragon." Mrs. Bashat snorted angrily, but she also stopped her sharp gaze and slowly inserted the tip of the sword into the ground.
Helena said to Bree: "Give the young black dragon soul to Bashat. This is the content of the contract."
The Forbidden Forest contract in Bree's hand emitted a bright light, and soon revealed the contract regulations signed by Gryffindor and Black Lake on behalf of Hogwarts, and found the rules of the life-and-death duel.
If the black dragon attempts to resurrect his body, there will be a Gryffindor duel, life or death.
Bashat holding Gryffindor's sword is indeed reasonable.
But Peeves obviously didn't understand this contract.
"This is the cunningness of the black dragon." Mrs. Bashat regained her composure and said indifferently: "Peeves knows about the existence of the contract, but he cannot resurrect his body, and... this one, it appeared unexpectedly."
"It didn't know the existence of the contract. Peeves took advantage of the contract and tried to use it to resurrect the black dragon."
】
"I think the Gryffindor bloodline is not dead yet, and I have the right to uphold the justice of this contract."
Is this contract just?
Bree suddenly saw Gryffindor holding a sword, defeating the black dragon, and forcing the black dragon to sign a contract by force... This contract was unfair at first, but how can it be said to be fair now.
"Why would the black dragon sign such an unfair contract, Mrs. Bashart, Ms. Gray?"
With soul power attached to her hand, Bree rubbed the head of little Peeves who was still sobbing.
And Helena frowned, seeming to be thinking seriously about Bree's question.
Mrs. Bashart said directly: "Because Gryffindor is the winner and the Black Dragon is the loser."
Brie nodded when she heard this, but Helena on the side frowned.
But it's too late.
Everyone in the Forbidden Forest suddenly found that the surroundings were covered with vines at some point, and the roots of huge ancient trees also surged up to surround the place.
"ah!"
"Mrs. Bashart, vines!"
"Fire... ugh!"
In the distance, vines were running across the ground, and tied to the vines were wizards guarding the remaining passages of the Dragon Cave.
Some wizards wanted to fight back, but their hands and feet were bound by vines and their lips were covered.
By the time Bashat and the centaurs recovered, hundreds of Wuyangyang wizards had been sent over by vines and locked in the air.
The Forbidden Forest Contract emits green fluorescence in Bree's hands. This is the Forbidden Forest obeying Bree's orders and cooperating with Bree to capture these wizards.
"you!"
Mrs. Basset was so angry that she held up Gryffindor's sword and was about to save the man.
However, the surrounding vines are spreading more and more here, and the sky is almost covered by them, and the sound of roots surging faintly can be heard underground.
They were completely trapped.
Seeing that the situation had become clear, Bree said, "Maybe Professor Dumbledore doesn't know about this."
"Right, the Sorting Hat." The Sorting Hat is not just for Gryffindor. In other words, its predecessor was Gryffindor's broken hat, but after it became an alchemical item, it was integrated with Hogwarts. Once they become one, they belong to Hogwarts.
Bree, who holds the contract, naturally has some control over Hogwarts, and the Sorting Hat cannot lie to him at this time.
"yes!"
"It was Bashart who deceived Dumbledore!" The Sorting Hat's voice was extremely worried. Because the Sorting Hat contained Gryffindor's sword and the memories of being with Gryffindor, it was very willing to take care of Gryffindor. Many descendants.
It's a pity that it can't be done now.
Under the contract, the Sorting Hat flew into Bree's hands with a whoosh.
As for the sword, it was temporarily kept by Gryffindor at Hogwarts. If the descendants of Gryffindor really wanted to take it away, Bree had no choice. Just like the crown, these things have owners. , there is an heir, and he has no enmity or enmity with his master, but his master is kind to him.
Hogwarts doesn't charge tuition fees, and it also provides food and accommodation for seven years. This is no small favor.
Of course, Hogwarts itself accounts for the vast majority of this debt.
"Are you going to save it, Oded?" Helena stopped Mrs. Bashat and looked at Bree.
There was helplessness in her eyes, as if Bree's thoughts just now made her unable to stand.
Of course, she is a ghost and has no feet.
"I created it by accident and I'm responsible for it."
"Sir!" Little Pippi heard Bri's words and held her thighs tighter.
Helena sighed.
"The black dragon cannot wake up, it will destroy Hogwarts."
"Hogwarts can be said to be a mountain built on its head. Do you want Hogwarts to be destroyed?"
Bree stopped what Helena was about to say.
"Don't tell me this."
After speaking to Helena, Bree looked at Peeves and said, "Do you want to become a black dragon?"
Peeves shook his head vigorously.
"I want to be your grown-up's follower."
"Very good." Bree looked at Helena and Mrs. Bashart.
"I think I can watch it and you can trust me."
Now, Bree is the stronger one, but he is willing to speak and negotiate with Helena and Mrs. Bashat as equals of power. He does not need any compensation, remuneration, or compensation.
This is Brie's concession.
"Okay." Helena answered Bree.
Mrs. Bashart also handed Gryffindor's sword to a wizard next to her.
The wizard came forward with the sword and handed it to Bree.
Mrs. Bashart said: "Return the sword to Dumbledore, and say sorry to him on my behalf. This is a trouble left by our ancestors. It shouldn't be this troublesome..."
Bree released the wizard bound by the tree vines and dismissed the tree vines at the same time.
The roots of the underground trees were also recovered, and the surrounding area returned to its original appearance.
"Let's go, those pure bloods will send people to take care of those fire dragons." Mrs. Bashat said to the wizards around her, and took the lead to walk outside the Forbidden Forest.
And Helena said to Bree: "What happened before still counts. You did not prevent the final result. Even if the black dragon wants to use Peeves to resurrect, it will take a lot of energy."
"But it looks like it's impossible."
Helena gradually disappeared, probably back to Hogwarts Castle.
Only the centaurs were left.
Bree looked at one of the centaurs carrying Mrs. Azar and said, "Put them down, I'll take them back to Hogwarts."
Now that they have met, Bree should find a way to treat Azar, just in time to experiment with the curse-breaking magic to treat the sequelae of the Imperius Curse.
"Mr. Oded..." Bain stepped forward and said, "This lady has turned into a werewolf, please be careful."
Bree nodded and accepted Bain's reminder.
"Ouch!" Pounce!
Mrs. Azar suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Brie fiercely. Brie saw a pleading look in her fierce brows, and then she rushed into the forbidden forest.
"Quick, catch..."
"Wait, let her go."
Bree touched Azar's forehead and found that the wounds on his soul had healed.
"Well, Mr. Oude, she killed no less than ten hippogriffs." Firenze said.
It can be seen that Firenze is worried that Mrs. Azar will also harm the creatures in the Forbidden Forest.
"She won't do this anymore, and Azar is a student at Hogwarts and should go back to class."
The disappearance of Azar was a big deal, but because of Mrs. Azar, the Ministry of Magic temporarily suppressed it, and Hogwarts only sent a message to the centaurs, hoping that the centaurs would help find it.
"Yes, Mr. Oded." Bain pulled Firenze and he said to Bree: "Then we will leave for now, Mr. Oded."
Bain took Firenze and the centaurs away, and Bree grabbed Azar and used Apparition to return to Hogwarts.
…
In Dumbledore's office, Bree appeared with Hazard, little Peeves hanging on his leg, and holding the Sorting Hat and Gryffindor's sword in his hand.
"Huh?" Dumbledore was stunned.
Bree threw Azar onto the sofa aside, and then placed the sword and the Sorting Hat on Dumbledore's desk.
"I don't think Mrs. Basset wants to take the sword away."
Dumbledore picked up the sword and inserted it into the Sorting Hat.
He smiled, blinked, and joked: "Maybe Gryffindor wants to rely on the sword to find a warrior. This is a test."
Bree raised her eyes.
"The Sorting Hat is old and in disrepair. There may be something wrong with his test."
"Hahaha, maybe, after all, I pulled it out before." Dumbledore chuckled, not believing this test.
Because neither he nor Bree was a warrior. As for courage, Dumbledore believed that he was not actually brave. He had never been truly brave when facing Grindelwald or the conflicts between Muggles and wizards.
"You brought Nagini back, didn't you?" Dumbledore said suddenly, and then a small snake crawled out of his drawer.
"I just saw Nagini waiting for you by the lake, but you were busy with something, so I brought her back."
There was a look of reminiscence and regret in Dumbledore's eyes.
He brought Nagini back to Hogwarts for a while, but unfortunately he didn't find a way to get into contact with the blood curse.
But now, Nagini seems a little different, a little more human.
This is a sign that the blood curse is weakening.
"Is it natural magic?" Dumbledore quickly found the answer and confirmed to Bree.
Bree nodded and let Nagini wrap around his wrist, absorbing the natural magic floating around him.
"Your natural magic is a little different." Dumbledore started researching after Bree published "Basics of Natural Magic". Until now, he has made some achievements, but he only then discovered that Bree's magic is different from what he practiced. Natural magic is a little different.
It seemed that Brie's natural magic was alive, while his was a pool of stagnant water that could only be controlled by his consciousness, lacking the most essential spirituality.
