Chapter 291 The Reincarnation Of War
If we say that Hogwarts is a magical school akin to a home,
then there is no doubt that Hufflepuff House is the coziest among the four houses.
Not just because of its low ceiling, the warm fireplace, and the lively plant decorations...
The most important aspect is that one can enjoy all kinds of delicious food at any time. Just step out through the door of the wooden barrel at the entrance of the common dormitory. Within less than three meters, lies the portrait of the fruit bowl leading to the Hogwarts kitchen.
Elena, for whom the happiness quotient depends on the proximity to food, found Hufflepuff House, located on the same corridor as the Hogwarts kitchen, to be the closest place in the entire castle to paradise.
In fact, this crucial reason led Elena to hesitate no longer and leave behind the legendary Gryffindor Tower with its aura of protagonism, engaging in a friendly exchange with the sorting hat, and consequentially finding herself in Hufflepuff House.
"Now...do you dare to deprive me of my only pastime?"
Elena stood in front of the huge portrait forming the entrance to the kitchen. She gazed at the pattern of the pear that began to feign death once more. She murmured, calmly yet with a touch of danger.
Usually, by merely scratching the large pear in the portrait, it would transform into a door handle.
However, evidently, since she accidentally entered the Hogwarts kitchen a week ago, Dumbledore's old horseradish had abused its power to impose a new prohibition in the kitchens, forbidding Elena Kaslan Na.
As if sensing the dangerous breath of the little witch on the other side of the door, a faint magical gleam quickly shimmered on the surface of the assorted fruit bowl portrait, manifesting an invisible repulsion on the portrait surface, guarding the entire entrance to the kitchen.
The magical abilities of house-elves are not inferior to those of wizards.
Indeed, in the current magical world, where magical heritage has waned and declined, many adult wizards often are inferior in magical strength to a house-elf. It's not that wizards are as capable as house-elves, but due to a wizard's handicap, one may still survive in the magical world, yet if a house-elf is not skilled enough, it's almost equivalent to death.
"Very well, it seems this is your answer, isn't it?"
Elena raised her eyebrows, displaying her claws and tentatively scratching.
A layer of invisible air wall solidified a few centimeters in front of the portrait. Elena felt her small claws seemed to be stuck in a thick pile of sand, unable to touch the portrait's body.
Undoubtedly, the house-elves behind the door have made the decision, just like Dobby did in the second part of the original book, magically blocking the entrance to the Hogwarts kitchen.
Currently, this position is too close to the Hufflepuff Common Room. If she uses the explosive spell in haste, it will be very easy to reveal her identity. It's better to try to avoid additional troubles.
You know, Professor Sprout lives in the Hufflepuff common room not far away.
Elena pondered for a moment and planned to switch to a method that would be easier to explain.
The girl's palm gently turned over, and a ghostly blue flame appeared in Elena's palm out of nowhere. In the center of the flame, a miniature version of the three-headed dog's head was resting on its front paw, sleeping contentedly.
"Louie! Wake up and work."
"Woof? Woof? Woof?"
As if sensing the call of the new owner, the three-headed dog, who was still asleep, shook its head and opened its eyes. Six eyes were filled with confusion and perplexity. It looked left and right, as if searching for Elena's trail.
Elena closed her eyes and attempted to communicate with her great dog in the way Grindelwald had taught her.
The ancient magic contract that Grindelwald had launched was one reason, and the other reason was that the three-headed Louie had truly surrendered to her temporarily from the bottom of his heart, thus establishing the magical connection so easily.
"Hogwarts, the basement, my location. It's dinner time, lots of delicious food!"
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
Sensing Elena's message, the three-headed Louie stood up excitedly, and its tail wagged rapidly.
Undoubtedly, although Hagrid is an excellent breeder of magical creatures, his personal financial resources greatly limit the food he can provide for the magical animals. At least for an adult three-headed dog, his meager salary as a keeper at Hogwarts was obviously not sufficient.
So, after completing the mission of guarding the magic stone, Hagrid had to endure the pain and rely on Dumbledore to send Louie back to Greece.
However, for Elena, what she lacked the most was money and the ability to find food.
...
The specifications of the building of Hogwarts Castle are quite grand.
Even if the giant stoops a little, he can easily move through the castle, so for Louie, who is not particularly exaggerated, there naturally is no problem.
In less than five minutes, Louie with three heads appeared in front of Elena in a faint blue flame. On the ground behind him, there were still slowly extinguishing claw-shaped blue flames. It's like the devil's footprint.
The three-headed hellhound, one of the most dangerous magical creatures, the favorite combat companion of ancient wizards, and powerful magical creatures that guarded and broke all kinds of magical prohibitions. It played a very important role in the war of the ancient wizards. This is Grindelwald's evaluation of the three-headed dog when he was at Newmontgarde Castle.
Coincidentally, if Elena remembers correctly, the house-elf, Heelf, is one of the races conquered by the wizards in the ancient wars. Since then, every house-elf will be trained as soon as they are born and must serve as a slave to their masters from generation to generation. They take care of all domestic chores and are bound to their masters. They cannot challenge their masters' orders lightly. If they do, they must punish themselves.
Meanwhile, it happened during the period when the notorious three-headed dog was active alongside the sorcerer.
"That is a marvelous reincarnation... Wizards, never fighting alone."
Elena shrugged and helplessly looked at the magically sealed kitchen door. Her right thumb arbitrarily flicked the portrait behind her, observing the swaying tail, and softly commanded,
"Luwei, help me open the door... let the meat inside be plentiful!"
"Oh! Wang!" X3
Boom!
