The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster - v3 Chapter 488
When Jon returned to the auditorium, he encountered a rather regrettable incident, that is, the house elves had taken away the salmon from the Hufflepuff table.
When he was thinking about what to eat next, Professor McGonagall also returned to the auditorium.
Zacharias reminded Jon and interrupted his thoughts. Seeing Professor McGonagall standing there with a serious face, the sad whispers in the auditorium immediately calmed down.
“It’s almost time,” she said loudly, “Please all classmates, follow your dean to the venue; classmates of Gryffindor, follow me.”
They lined up from behind the bench, making almost no sound, and then followed Professor Sprout.
The students of Ravenclaw naturally followed Professor Flitwick… But Slytherin’s situation is a bit special. Professor Setima Victor, who is in charge of arithmetic divination, is now leading them. The multi-year-old witch is the only Slytherin teacher in the school now.
They walked out the gate one by one, Gryffindor at the front, and Slytherin at the end…After walking down the stone steps, they walked towards Lake Hogsmeade.
The warm sunlight in the sky shone on their faces. On the shore of Lake Hogsmeade, there are almost a thousand chairs lined up. There is an aisle in the middle of these chairs and a marble table in the center. All the chairs face it.
Already nearly half of the seats were filled with people, but it looked like a mixed bag. Some are ragged, some are chic and decent; there are old people and young people; there are even fairies and house elves mixed in…
Most of them are faces that Jon doesn’t know, but there are some he knows–
For example, most of the members of the Order of the Phoenix… such as Alastor Moody, Kingsley Shaker, and the Weasley family…
And Mrs. Maxim—she sat with Hagrid, and two of them occupied ten people’s place… The students of Boothbat also seemed to have arrived, and they sat behind Hagrid.
Hannah’s grandfather and Tom, the owner of the Broken Cauldron Bar, are here, as well as some familiar faces often seen in Broken Cauldron…In addition, there are several singers in the Weird Sisters singing group and the rider bus driver Ern -The merchants in the shops in the villages of Puran and Hogsmeade…
All the ghosts in the castle appeared. They were almost invisible in the sun, and they could only be recognized when they walked around, shining illusory light in the bright air. Whether it is Nick who is almost headless, the fat monk, or even Pippi, their expressions have become very serious…
Jon sat at the back of the crowd, listening to the whispers of the people in front…More and more people were coming here in an orderly manner. Some people had no place and could only stand silently in the corner. .
Cornelius Fudge, the former Minister of Magic, passed by them and walked towards the front seat. He looked frowning, his hands rubbing aimlessly.
There is also Rita Skeeter, the British journalist who is not welcome at Hogwarts. She looks very excited, holding a notebook in her red paw-like hand and looking around from time to time.
Then Jon recognized Dolores Umbridge again. There was a sad expression on her toad face, and a black velvet butterfly topped her iron-brown curly hair. When she saw the Goublay fairy fire next to the marble table (which Hagrid brought here specially to commemorate Dumbledore), she suddenly shook her body and hurriedly ran to a seat in the distance.
Finally, all the staff were seated. Minister Amelia Burns, Rufus Scrimgeour and Mrs. McGonagall sat in the front row. They were formally dressed and looked solemn.
However, Jon doubted very much whether these Ministry of Magic figures really felt sad about Albus Dumbledore’s “death” when Voldemort had already escaped?
Seeing everyone’s eyes focused on the long marble table in front, no one had a chance to observe his actions-Jon carefully took out an ungrown phoenix from his pocket and put it on the ground. Motioned her to leave quickly.
A few minutes later-Fox’s sad song came from nowhere. Phoenix was singing a moving and sad elegy in a way that Jon had never heard before, echoing across the campus and the castle windows.
Almost to echo the phoenix’s singing, a chorus of mermaids slowly swam to the lake. They were singing softly in a strange language that wizards could not understand.
Their ugly and pale faces applied seriousness, and purple hair floated around them. The music sounds so stubborn, but it’s not harsh. The mermaids, express their sorrow and despair clearly.
…
Albus Dumbledore did not leave his remains. On the long marble table, there are only some “relics” left by him during his lifetime——
That purple velvet robe studded with gold stars, light blue half-moon glasses and his ugly pointed wizard hat…
After seeing Hagrid put the relics one after another, many witches couldn’t help but shed sad tears.
A small man with thick hair and a plain black robe stood up from his seat and came to the long marble table. It was Epheas-Dogo, a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and Dumbledore’s young friend. .
His voice was a little choked, so that people in the back row could not hear clearly, and could only vaguely hear a few words:
“Noble spirit”…”Academic achievement”…”Great mind”…
The sound of splashing water came from the left. Jon turned his head and saw that more merfolk emerged from the water, and they were also listening carefully to Dumbledore’s eulogy.
Jon suddenly thought that he was in this place two years ago, and he used a fire gray snake egg to almost destroy the entire murloc tribe in Lake Hogsmeade… He couldn’t help feeling a little palpitating, and quickly turned around, and Put on a hood to prevent fish people from recognizing him.
There was also movement in the forbidden forest. The giant Glop came out slowly. It was wearing a jacket and trousers the size of a small tent, with its huge, ugly head hanging down. The horsemen also came to express their condolences; they did not go to the open space, but half-hidden in the shadows, looking at the wizards here motionlessly, and at the same time they did not raise their bows and arrows. It is pinned to the side of the body.
The little Epheas-Dogo finally finished his speech and returned to his seat. Then Minister Amelia Burns walked out and read the eulogy of the Ministry of Magic to Albus Dumbledore seriously. And then–
The witches screamed in fright.
A dazzling golden flame burst out from the long marble table: the flames rose higher and higher, almost completely blocking Dumbledore’s relic.
The white smoke curled up into the air, showing the shape of a phoenix, which flew gracefully into the blue sky-but then the flame disappeared, and a white marble tomb appeared in the place where it was before.
Countless bows and arrows shot into the air like rain, but they fell far away from the crowd; it was the horsemen, they were using this way to mourn.
The fish people also dived to the bottom of the lake, which made Jon a sigh of relief.
…
Ginny Weasley couldn’t help it anymore, her face was covered with bright tears.
Her brothers Ron Weasley and Harry Potter are also very depressed.
And Hermione Granger looked straight at the white shadow in the shape of a phoenix in the sky, her hand trembling suddenly because of excitement.
“I understand!” she murmured.
“What do you understand?” Harry looked back at Hermione in a puzzled way.
But Hermione has no time to answer this question–
As the funeral ended, Professor Minerva McGonagall, the acting headmaster of Hogwarts, walked to the white marble grave.
The hustle and bustle of the surrounding sounds returned to calm again.
“We have lost a principal!”
“An elder!”
“A professor!”
“a friend!”
“The pride of Britain!”
“He was a symbol of hope, the leader of wizards!”
“He is the undefeated warrior in front of the dark magic!”
“It’s also the strongest shield for Hogwarts!”
“Dumbledore has gone ~www.mtlnovel.com~ but Dumbledore will always be in our hearts!”
Professor McGonagall paused and glanced at the crowd. She sighed and said:
“Albus Dumbledore is gone… Hogwarts will usher in its future!”
