Homecoming from Hogwarts

Chapter 646 Kindness
In the gloomy temple, an illusory chain with golden flames left the tip of Amosta's staff and quickly entered the brain of Horn, who was stiff. In a daze, Horn seemed to hear a crisp sound. The ground clicked, like a solid lock being locked.

"The stakes are so high that I have to do this--"

Amosta slowly lowered his wand and said in an apologetic tone,
"I have sealed your recent memory. As long as you don't mention this memory to others, there will be no problems."

Amosta Blaine didn't say clearly what would happen if he brought it up, but Horn would not have guessed that the most likely outcome would be death.Anger and sadness are useless. Horn, who was silent for a long time, nodded slowly, indicating that he understood.

"That's good--"

Amosta breathed a sigh of relief and looked outside the door. The darkness of the night was extremely oppressive, and the treetops swaying desperately under the howling wind added a bit of horror to the cold night.
"That's good. Then, regarding the centaurs accepting druids to live in the Forbidden Forest. This is also a major event that cannot be ignored, especially in the long run, it may bring risks to Hogwarts. "

Horn did not speak, his old face was full of helplessness. No matter what Amosta Brain made, the centaurs would have no room to resist. This man was not Albus Dumbledore, he would not meeting.
"So, I can't be arbitrary. I have to call Dumbledore over and listen to his opinion. After all, he is the principal of Hogwarts."

Horn looked at Amosta blinking in surprise, thinking that Amosta Brain had made up his mind to clear out the druids from the Forbidden Forest.

A hazy silver light shot from the tip of the staff into the boundless night. This made Amosta breathe a sigh of relief again. His patron saint could still be used normally without any damage.

Although the centaurs in the tribe followed Horn's order and returned to their rooms, none of them could relax. Amosta could notice that in the closed rooms, nervous eyes were passing through. The gap is peering here.

"--By the way, how did those druids in the secret realm come to the Forbidden Forest?"

Amosta, who was standing at the door blowing the cold wind, suddenly turned his head and asked,

"I mean, it's not an easy thing for hundreds of people to quietly enter the Forbidden Forest without being discovered by a single person?"

"They used the teleportation array." Horn's voice was muffled, sounding unhappy, "It's an ancient way of teleportation, similar to the wizard's apparation and portkey."

boom!
A brilliant fire light dissipated the abyss of darkness. Dumbledore, wearing a purple silk nightgown, walked out of Fawkes's flames. He looked around with blue eyes, nodded at Amosta, and smiled. Looking at the centaur elders in the main hall,
"Good evening, Horn. Oh, my gosh, you look a lot older. How long has it been since we last met? 50 years?"

"Not that long, Professor Dumbledore—"

After Dumbledore appeared, Horn seemed more confident. He finally puffed up his chest and tapped the floor with his hoof.
"Have you forgotten? When that wizard who must not even be named was most active, you once came to me, hoping that the centaurs could join the camp against him."

"Ah, I remembered—"

Dumbledore said happily,
"That was a frank exchange. You told me that the centaurs would never intervene in the wizarding war. If Voldemort comes, you can use your own power to fight against him. Fortunately, Harry Potter was defeated. Voldemort's conspiracy, the situation has not deteriorated to that point——"

The corners of Horn's mouth twitched, and he heard the teasing in Dumbledore's words.

"--I just happened to go downstairs to get chocolate milk, and then I noticed the magic change in the centaurs tribe. I was hesitating whether to come over and have a look, and then I received your message."

Dumbledore looked at Amosta. He noticed that although Amosta looked the same as usual, there was something deep in his eyes that was full of worries.

"What's wrong, Amosta, what happened?"

"That's right -" Amosta turned around and walked into the temple and came to Dumbledore.

"There are some situations that I think you need to know. Headmaster, our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. I mean, Vitia Cliona has reached an agreement with our neighbors. The centaurs are looking for something in the Forbidden Forest. This place is where Greyback's werewolf tribe lives, and a secret secret realm was established. Miss Cliona regarded it as the new home of the Druid's followers——"

Even though Dumbledore had seen countless storms and waves in his life, he was shocked by the news Amosta said and couldn't speak for more than ten seconds.

"It's surprising, Horn -" Dumbledore, who had digested the several levels of meaning behind this matter, looked at Horn and said, "I always thought that centaurs were unwilling to deal with all humans, so, Do you just not like communicating with me?"

"This is not the same thing, Dumbledore!"

Horn glanced at Amosta and said angrily.

"What is your attitude, Headmaster Dumbledore?"

Amosta asked,

"As for the group of Druids who moved into the woods, should we wait for a while and then expel them, or should we turn a blind eye?"

In any case, it is not appropriate to drive the Druids out of the Forbidden Forest immediately. Whether it is from a humanitarian point of view or from Amosta's own plan, they want to let Cliona stay in Huo. Gwartz continued to lurk.

"Can you take me to see them?"

Dumbledore has obviously seen through the risks of leaving the Druids in the Forbidden Forest. These people are arranged by Cliona. So, will they follow Voldemort to make trouble in the wizarding world after Voldemort returns, or will they? , causing some trouble that they don't need to face?

"If you insist, Professor Dumbledore--" the centaur walked to the door, "I'll ask Firenze to bring the key. We must-"

"No need to be so troublesome."

Amosta glanced at Fox, who was hovering on the beam, and the clever Fox immediately spread his wings and took to the air. A ball of colorful fire enveloped several people in the temple. After a crisp cry, there was no one in the temple.

"Ah, I think I found out--"

A moment later, Dumbledore, Amostar and the centaur elder Horn appeared in the deep forest. The three of them fell from the ground. After Dumbledore fell to the ground, his penetrating blue eyes quickly locked In the space under the collapsed crossbar, he held the hem of his nightgown, jumped over several vines with vigorous movements, and arrived under the crossbar.

Fawkes landed on Dumbledore's shoulder, tilting his head and his ruby-like eyes flashed a few times. Suddenly, he flapped his wings and shed a bright light forward.The gorgeous light like an aurora interweaves a circular door in mid-air, and the scene in the secret realm has appeared.

Dumbledore did not cross the door and enter the secret realm. He just stood outside the door with a solemn expression, quietly looking at the world in the secret realm, and at the huge oak tree at that moment, which was the tree on the horizontal branches. In the tree house, I watched the practicing Druids absorb life energy from the void, and watched the children walking and laughing in the fairy-tale woods.
"Oh--"

Neither Amosta nor Horn said anything, waiting for Dumbledore to make a decision.About 10 minutes later, Dumbledore suddenly looked at Amosta and said pleasantly,
"I think they're safe—"

Horn immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and Amosta was not particularly surprised by Dumbledore's reaction. He remained silent for a while.

"You mean, allow them to live in the Forbidden Forest?"

"I don't think there's anything wrong with that, Amosta—"

Dumbledore was thoughtful,
"Look at those kids, Amosta, oh, I think they might be Hogwarts students one day!"
