Hogwarts God of Ice and Fire

Chapter 59 The Mirror of Erised

In the middle of the night, Irina sneaked out of the women's bedroom, planning to go to the Hogwarts kitchen to ask the house-elves of Hogwarts Castle for some food as usual.

At the previous Christmas dinner, she patronized the lottery bag and firecrackers, and she was not full!

Wand in one hand, she came to the Gryffindor common room.

It was already late at night, and the Gryffindor lounge was empty at this time, and the surrounding area was in darkness. Those who did not have the guts would not dare to wander here alone.

But just as Irina was about to walk out of the Gryffindor common room, she felt a tap on the shoulder.

"Damn it, ghost!"

After realizing that there was nothing behind her, Irina backed away in fright, and at the same time raised her hand towards her original position and cast a few freezing spells.

The ice-blue beam of light flashed past, as if hitting something.

Immediately afterwards, the invisibility cloak slipped down like flowing water, revealing the boy who had been frozen into an ice sculpture inside.

"Harry?!"

Irina was stunned for a moment, and she quickly undid the curse.

The thawed Harry was trembling all over, and while putting on his invisibility cloak again, he complained: "Irina, you don't have to be so sensitive?! Where did the ghost come from in the Gryffindor common room, let alone There are ghosts here, and I haven't seen you afraid of them!"

Irina snorted softly: "Whoever told you to scare me deserves to be frozen into an ice sculpture!"

Harry said helplessly: "This invisibility cloak is my father's relic, I just wanted to try its effect, and then I saw you here, so I wanted to ask you if you want to go out for a night tour together."

Irina spread her hands: "With my magical strength, even if I don't wear an invisibility cloak, I won't be spotted by Filch. However, if you wear an invisibility cloak, can you go to the restricted section of the library without being noticed?" ?”

Although Irina was able to use all kinds of magic to hide her figure, but she didn't know the Disillusionment Curse yet, so naturally she couldn't pass Mrs. Pince's strict guard to enter the restricted area.

Harry nodded and said, "Of course, you didn't notice me just now!"

Hearing this, Irina's eyes lit up.

She said to Harry: "Harry, you can try to go to the restricted area. I heard that there are many powerful magic records in the books there, which can allow you to use it to defeat Malfoy!"

According to the original records, after Harry was discovered in the restricted area, he ran all the way to find the abandoned classroom with the Mirror of Erised. Although the Mirror of Erised cannot change the reality, what is Irina's inner wish? What, she is still interested.

As long as she could lure Harry into the restricted area, and then get Harry kicked out, then as long as she followed Harry, there was a high probability that she would be able to find that classroom.

Hearing Irina's words, Harry was also a little surprised.

You know, the duel with Malfoy was beaten by Malfoy all over the place, and the fact that Hermione had to save the field in the end made Harry very upset. He naturally hoped that he could defeat Malfoy with his own magic spell. Blessed.

"I'll go with you, but I have to leave it to you to find the book. I'll just hide in the invisibility cloak!"

Irina said to Harry.

Although Harry was a little puzzled, he agreed without hesitation.

Harry's invisibility cloak was worn by adults, and to them it was equivalent to a huge cloak. Even if Harry and Irina were both hiding in the invisibility cloak, they could still walk side by side at a distance of half a meter.

In this way, Irina successfully encouraged Harry into the restricted section of the library.

What happened later was not too different from the original book. When Harry was flipping through a book in the restricted section, the book suddenly let out a sharp, creepy scream, which completely broke the silence of the library. This made Harry hide in the Invisibility Cloak and drag Irina to run.

Irina didn't care where Harry ran, she followed.

Soon, Harry and Irina hide in an abandoned classroom.

This is an abandoned classroom, many desks and chairs are piled up against the wall, presenting a large group of dark shadows, and there is also an upside-down wastebasket, but facing Harry and Irina On the other wall, there is something that doesn't seem to belong here, as if someone put it here temporarily because there is no place to put it.

It was a very imposing mirror, reaching as high as the ceiling, in an ornate gold frame, and supported by two claw-shaped feet.

On the top of the mirror is engraved a line: Eris, Stella, Uhru, Ait Ubi, Kafru, Ait On, Vorhes.

Read this line backwards, it means: What I show is not your face, but your desire!

After seeing this line of words, Irina understood that this was the Mirror of Erised!

At this moment, Harry took a few steps forward and looked at the Mirror of Erised.

After seeing what appeared in the Mirror of Erised, he was taken aback, and he quickly covered his mouth with his hands so as not to let himself scream out.

In the Mirror of Erised in front of Harry, there were at least a dozen people standing behind him, but when Harry suddenly turned his head, he found no one except Irina, who had an innocent face.

Could it be that these people are all wearing invisibility cloaks, and the function of this mirror is to break the invisibility? !
Thinking so, Harry looked carefully at the scene in the mirror, and he saw a woman standing behind him smiling and waving at him.

It was a very beautiful woman with dark red hair and green eyes exactly like Harry's, and next to her was a tall, thin man with black hair and a pair of glasses, with his arms around her , with disheveled hair, and a dull hair like Harry's on the back of his head.

Are they... their parents? !
This crazy idea appeared in Harry's mind, but seeing the couple in the mirror who had a lot in common with him, Harry firmly believed that his point of view was correct.

"Mommy?" Harry whispered, "Daddy?!"

Everyone in the mirror was smiling and looking at him, and everyone in the mirror was his family.

Just as Harry was immersed in the scene presented by the Mirror of Erised, Irina patted Harry on the shoulder to wake him up: "Did you see the words on this mirror? Turn it upside down Read it!"

Harry looked at her in bewilderment, and complied. "It's not your face I'm showing, but your desire."

After speaking, Harry seemed to realize something.

He looked at Irina and asked, "So, the appearance of my parents in this mirror does not mean that they are still alive, but because the deepest desire in my heart is to live with my parents?"

Harry said, feeling extremely disappointed in his heart.

He thought he'd be able to get his parents back and never have to go back to that damned Dursley's house.
