After saying goodbye to the Weasleys, Lorne simply flipped through the forbidden book and put it back in its original position.
Filch was about to arrive on patrol in the library, which was why he had to leave before the watchdogs arrived.
"Starlight Flicker."
The voice rang out, and a glittering dot of light hung from the wand, illuminating the surrounding darkness.
Tonight, other than going to the library to read the forbidden books, he also wanted to go to the forbidden area on the third floor to see the Cerberus that liked to listen to music.
This was also why he had brought Momotaro Onigiri with him before he came.
They followed the ever-changing staircase to the third floor. At a corner, a mirror stood still.
Lorne suddenly stopped in his tracks and looked at the mirror.
The mirror was beautifully decorated, with a golden frame and two claw-shaped feet supporting it. The top was also engraved with the words " Eris Stella Ehru Ayteubi Kafru Ayteang Vohess."
This was the name of the mirror, the Mirror of Erised.
On top of the mirror, there was a row of unknown letters carved: “Erisedstraehruoytubecafruoytonwohsi”
Lorne frowned and studied it for a moment before realizing that this row of letters needed to be read backwards.
The translation was: " I show not your face but your desire.”
"You can see what you desire?”
As Lorne looked at the mirror, his eyes had already quietly opened.
The surroundings were empty, without any magic power.
This also meant that there was no one else nearby.
Dumbledore's probing?
He remembered that it had been Dumbledore who had kept the mirror, and that it had been there to show Harry what he wanted to see.
After closing the Shura Eye, Lorne hesitated for a moment before strolling towards the mirror.
He wanted to see what his heart desired.
Strength or something else?
With anticipation, Lorne looked at himself in the mirror.
However, the mirror that was supposed to reflect his own face did not reflect him at all. Instead, it was another person. Moreover, it was very familiar. However, it was different from usual. For example, there were fewer things.
“——？”
Lorne widened his eyes and froze in front of the mirror.
I'm not a lolicon!
Don't I desire power?
"Oh, it looks like you saw something interesting, Lorne Geralt!”
At this moment, a kind voice suddenly sounded from behind. The white-bearded old man stood behind Lorne with a smile on his face and a wand in his hand.
"Headmaster Dumbledore?"
Lorne was not in a hurry to turn around. Instead, he wiped his nose with his black sleeve.
Young and impetuous, there were always some things that he could not see.
"Good evening."
When Lorne turned around, he saw Dumbledore, who was also looking at the mirror and smiling.
"What do you see in this mirror, Geralt?”
Dumbledore looked at Lorne, who was a little hesitant, and said kindly,"Of course, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to.”
"No, there's nothing to hide, I see it in the mirror here... Wand and honor.”
Lorne thought for a moment and lied.
He couldn't say that he saw something he shouldn't have seen inside, right?
As expected, this kind of thing should not be told to others!
"Oh, pursuing glory and power?”
Dumbledore looked at him without surprise, because as a Slytherin snake, these two qualities were the most basic.
"I saw in it a lot of woolen socks I received for Christmas.”
said Dumbledore, smiling.
Wool socks?
Was he referring to his family?
Lorne, who had lived here for eleven years, was naturally not unfamiliar with the meaning of wool socks.
Because only family members would give wool socks.
And Dumbledore was now completely separated from his younger brother.
" I understand, Principal."
Lorne nodded. Christmas was coming soon, and he could give some wool socks to Headmaster Dumbledore. He could not possibly not return the favor.
"Geralt, you must remember, on the path of power and glory, do not lose your heart. I do not want to see you become that person one day.”
"Since you have amazing talent, you should make good use of it. Don't bite off more than you can chew. In addition, the black magic and curses in the Forbidden Book Area are not something you can come into contact with.”
Dumbledore's expression changed as he said to Lorne seriously.
In the past few days, he had suddenly received a letter from Professor Flitwick. In the letter, the other party had completely exposed Lorne's amazing talent and his pity for Lorne joining the Snake Yard.
There was a lot of nonsense in the letter, but Dumbledore only saw one sentence in it, and that was, could Lorne change his college?
After hearing Dumbledore's words, Lorne felt a chill down his spine.
He had just been discovered in the restricted section, which meant that Dumbledore had been observing him all night?
Fortunately, he always lowered his head when he used the Shurunyan. If he was discovered, Dumbledore would have asked him.
Because of the negative emotions emanating from those eyes, it was hard not to associate them with black magic.
"I understand!" Lorne nodded in agreement.
"Alright, Geralt, I didn't see anything tonight.”Dumbledore nodded in satisfaction, then turned around and left in his white robe.
"I just came out to go to the toilet. I believe you did too.”
"I just came out to use the toilet, but I got lost.”
Lorne's lips curled up slightly.
When he was about to leave the magic mirror, Lorne could not help but look back again.
No-it's flowing out!
Lorne grabbed the sleeve of the black robe and covered his nose. He looked up and took a few glances before hurriedly leaving the magic mirror.
I'm really not a lolicon!
He had experienced too many things tonight, but Lorne was still in no mood to sleep.
Or rather, he couldn't sleep.
