"Ding! Shock detected."
"Ding! Drawing treasure chests for the host!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining a Golden Treasure Chest!”
The system notification was still ringing in his ears.
Moreover, the reward was a precious Gold Treasure Chest.
However, Blake was too busy to care about it.
Black looked at his right arm in bewilderment.
Because…
Fawkes the Phoenix was elegantly standing on his arm.
She was rubbing her head against him affectionately…
"What the f * ck? What happened?"
Blake was dumbfounded.
There were many question marks in the child's heart…
Similarly…
Dumbledore was also looking at this scene in astonishment.
Therefore, after a golden treasure chest.
Black had once again received a silver chest from Dumbledore.
From Dumbledore's point of view.
Fawkes was not a random bird.
To be exact, she was a proud phoenix!
However…
This proud phoenix.
But now, she was being so intimate with this strange boy…
"So, you're here for him? Fawkes?"
Dumbledore looked at Black thoughtfully.
……
"What kind of bird is this? It's so beautiful!"
Hermione looked excitedly at Fawkes.
She wanted to reach out and touch it, but she didn't dare to.
Hermione at this moment.
He had never seen a phoenix before.
"Um…I don't know."
Blake did not say that it was a phoenix.
He was an orphan Muggle-born.
He shouldn't know what it was.
Just as Blake was at a loss.
Another thing that made him dumbfounded happened.
Fawkes was crying!
Phoenix's tears fell onto the back of Blake's hand.
On the back of Blake's hand.
There were originally some slight scratches.
He had obtained it when he was dodging the attacks of the hidden monsters at the beginning.
It was just a small scratch.
Under the treatment of Phoenix Tears.
Naturally, he recovered in an instant…
But…why would Fox treat my injuries?!
Black suddenly looked up at Dumbledore.
Had Dumbledore made it do this?
But when Black saw that Dumbledore's face was even more puzzled than his own, he was shocked.
He knew it wasn't.
……
Observing the scene from Dumbledore.
Then, Phoenix Fawkes flew over to treat Blake's injuries.
Actually, not much time had passed.
At this moment.
Dumbledore joined them.
"You are…Professor Dumbledore?”
said Hermione cautiously.
"Do you recognize me?" said Dumbledore, smiling.
"Yes, I am! I've seen your photo in a book!"
"I... I'm a new student at Hogwarts this year.”
"My name is Hermione Granger!"
Hermione looked at Dumbledore with deep yearning in her eyes.
Ever since she learned about the magic world.
He had always been filled with longing for that legendary magic academy.
"Ah! That's great!"
"I am delighted that Hogwarts will have another excellent student this year.”
"I welcome you on behalf of Hogwarts, Miss Granger.”
said Dumbledore, smiling.
Hermione beamed at Dumbledore's coaxing.
Of course.
Unlike Hermione's excitement.
Black was still looking warily at Dumbledore.
Because…
No matter how he thought about it, he felt that today's encounter was very strange!
Perhaps he was unlucky to encounter a hidden monster.
However…
Why was Dumbledore suddenly here?
Why was Fox so intimate with him?
Most importantly…
Why would his name tag suddenly be repaired at this time?
Moreover…
His surname was actually the sensitive Grindelwald?
Thinking of this…
Blake's heart was filled with question marks.
At this moment.
Dumbledore's eyes were also on Black.
Although he had just met this child.
But for some reason.
When he saw this child.
He always felt very close to her.
Dumbledore smiled at Black."So... you must be a new student at Hogwarts this year?”
"I'm not." Blake answered honestly.
"Oh?" Dumbledore looked suspiciously at Black.“
Didn't you get the letter from the owl?”
"An owl? Oh, I've heard from Hermione. But…I never received it."
Black wasn't lying this time.
He had indeed not received the admission letter.
To be exact.
He had been waiting for that owl.
However, it never came.
Blake thought.
Perhaps it was not his birthday yet.
As an orphan.
He did not know when his birthday was either…
Dumbledore looked surprised, too.
In England.
A young wizard of the right age.
They usually attend Hogwarts.
Unless the child's parents were unwilling.
Or they might decide to send their children to other magic academies.
However…
Even if he didn't want to go to Hogwarts.
That was a decision to be made later.
Hogwarts still sent a letter of admission to every young wizard of the right age.
But now…
Blake obviously did not receive the letter!
Perhaps, this child had yet to celebrate his eleventh birthday?
This was not strange.
Black continued to look puzzled at Dumbledore.
He was not in the least bit worried that Dumbledore would see through his lie.
This was because the Newbie Gift Pack had rewarded him with a beginner Occlumency skill.
A rudimentary Occlumency might not be enough to deal with Voldemort.
But it was enough to deal with Dumbledore.
After all, he would not use Legilimency to read the young wizard's memory.
"Then what…is going on?”
Because Black was with Hermione.
So Dumbledore had thought at first that they knew each other.
So, if Hermione knew about the Wizarding World, she would have to be careful.
Then Black would know.
But now, it seemed like he was the only one left.
It didn't seem like that.
Soon after.
Black told Dumbledore everything that had happened.
Of course, he hid the parts that he couldn't say.
Dumbledore looked at Black and Hermione in surprise.
He had always thought that these two children were children of a wizarding family.
Or at least Hermione was.
But he didn't expect it.
They were all Muggle-born.
Blake was even a child from an orphanage.
The two children had only recently learned about the magical world.
"I always thought that my ability was some kind of superpower.”
" That's why I've been secretly practicing…"
"It wasn't until recently that Hermione told me it was magic..."
Blake added.
This was a disguised explanation.
His Shapeshifting was at such a level.
It was completely trained by him as a superpower!
This way…
His level of shapeshifting, which was far beyond his peers, seemed reasonable.
After Blake finished speaking.
He was glad that he had not used any offensive spells in the battle.
Otherwise, it would be hard to explain.
As expected.
Dumbledore did not suspect anything.
Instead, it was even more shocking.
One had to know.
If Black had not received the letter of admission.
In other words.
He had no wand!
How could he use Shapeshifting to such a level without a staff?!
If he had a wand...
Wouldn't it be even more powerful?
At this moment, Blake's mouth twitched imperceptibly.
Because of the system notification.
Treasure chest extraction failed…
Trash system!
Dumbledore sighed softly after recovering from his shock.
Then, he said with a smile.
"It's a great blessing that you're all fine. The children."
"Hidden monsters are not so easy to deal with.”
"However…your brave performance is truly outstanding beyond my expectations!”
"If this were Hogwarts, I would not hesitate to add twenty points to your respective Houses!”
said Dumbledore, smiling again at Black.
"Right…what's your name?”
"Maybe I can go back to Hogwarts and find out when your birthday is.”
"Your name and birthday must be on the admission book.”
Indeed.
Hermione had introduced herself.
However, Blake never said his name.
"Thank you so much, Professor!”
Blake said excitedly.
"I'm Black... Black Grindelwald!”
Dumbledore's eyes widened.
"What…what did you say your name was?”
"Ding! Extremely shocked emotions detected!"
"Ding! Drawing treasure chests for the host!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Supreme Treasure Chest!”
