HP: Let professors walk towards the light

"Don't tell me that is the escape route you prepared?" Dumbledore suddenly became serious, as if he had realized something, his tone slightly solemn.

"Severus, you must know that everything has its own laws of development. If you rashly interrupt the laws of time, it will cause unpredictable consequences. Even a time converter is not a perfect thing. There is no shortage of time travelers in history who have met with bad consequences."

"This is not a way out for me. I won't go down the path of a time traveler. As you can see, I don't have a time converter."

"It seems that you won't tell me the details of this matter. Since when did you start having secrets?" Dumbledore's scrutinizing eyes fell on me. This feeling was really unpleasant.

"Before, Sirius mentioned a student he was very familiar with to me."

really.

"He said that the child was very close to Harry and must have bad intentions, and that she knew Harry's Parseltongue. Actually, that's nothing, Parseltongue is not a secret. I know that she is a good child, but I don't quite know how I should view the relationship between this child and Harry."

"What do you think the relationship is?"

"In fact, I don't think she would make friends with Harry and the others. I thought that was what you meant, but I know nothing." Dumbledore shrugged.

"It's me. Compared to those two, I think Hermalena is more capable in every aspect." Of course I was making it up. That was Hermalena's own opinion.

However, contrary to my expectations, Dumbledore did not dwell on those things, nor did he dwell on the contents of the manuscript. As usual, he stared at me vaguely, looked around the office, then chuckled softly, left after saying "I know" and left.

It was midnight, or perhaps already early morning, I tidied up the things on the table, picked up the most crucial piece of manuscript paper and went into the room.

The part about time reversal that Dumbledore saw was collected by me based on Hermalena's situation. I can't figure out why Hermalena went back to the past so many times after her death, but from another perspective, it may not be a bad thing. Being alive is always better than dying.

If possible, I would like to transfer my magic power when that moment comes, but with Hermalena's body after time travel, it will be difficult for her to withstand my magic power and it will easily cause a magic riot, and she may even become an Obscurus.

It's too risky, so if I could go back with her that would be great. But without the same magical time-reversal formula as Hermalena's, I might get lost in time. So, all I can think of is to use Hermalena's soul and attach my memories to it. Once Hermalena is unlucky and triggers the time-reversal again, she will take me back to the past along with what I attached. Those memory fragments will slowly find the main body and return to my past self after Hermalena lands and in the process of contact with me.

It is not difficult to establish a magical link between two people's souls. Although the principle formula is a bit complicated, the most important thing is not to affect Hermalena's soul. The cost of backtracking is still unclear. At this time, even the slightest damage must be avoided. Otherwise, it is possible that it will become the last straw that breaks the camel's back, and all previous efforts will be wasted.

You can always succeed if you put in more effort.

Just as I was about to take a break, I caught a glimpse of the gifts I threw in, piled up next to the closet in the bedroom.

Every year, the Christmas gifts I receive are only from those capable students and some professors and scholars of potions. I guess they are either books or potions, after all, those are the things I give in return.

However, the silver-pink and black velvet packaging looks quite delicate, and the only product that comes to my mind that fits this aesthetic is probably Hermalena.

I remember that what I sent over was the Fuling potion that I had just made. Although it was not very exquisite, it was considered quite satisfactory.

I felt that the packaging looked familiar for some reason, but I didn't think too much about it. After opening it, I found that it was also covered with black velvet cloth, with a silver bottle pendant in the middle and a snake-shaped bas-relief on the bottle.

It’s more like a silver potion bottle strung together by a chain than a pendant. The first thing that comes to mind is the thing in the bottle is a potion, but what kind of potion is worthy of using such a bottle?

When I opened the bottle cap, a woody scent like ointment emanated. At the same time, my nerves, which were tense due to staying up late, relaxed in an instant. My chaotic thoughts also faded away along with the fragrance, and I even felt a little sleepy.

Valerian essential oil has a calming and soothing effect. It is generally used to concentrate the mind and aid sleep, relieve fatigue, and can also be used to stop bleeding and relieve pain, protect the liver and the heart, and is slightly toxic.

I didn't expect it to be a magic potion. Compared with sleeping pills and demulcents, valerian oil is slightly toxic, but its soothing effect is far greater than the former if it is just essential oil. It's just that it's really difficult to control the pharmacological effect of magic in the distillation process. The price of valerian essential oil on the market is not low, even if it is of ordinary quality.

Not to say perfect, but it's more than extraordinary quality.

As expected of Hermalena, she is really thoughtful.

The box also comes with a Christmas card with a picture of a whole valerian flower. Valerian means carefreeness and also symbolizes eternity.

That night, I slept the best sleep I've ever had.

??

Two months have passed since the werewolf attack, and there has been no news from Lupin regarding Greyback's movements. If you look at it in a positive way, no news is good news, but the current situation does not allow you to let your guard down.

Parade at the Quidditch World Cup. I have already hinted to Dumbledore to send more people. Potter cannot fall into the hands of the Death Eaters at this time. I hope he is not that useless.

"It's okay. I've invited Hermione to go to the World Cup. I'll watch over them. You can come with me then. You go find the house-elf. Little Barty should be hidden by her."

Lying on the table was a ticket for the private box of the Quidditch World Cup. It was left by Hermalena without a word. Tallos was really as wealthy as Malfoy.

Recently, because of Hermalena's previous connection with the Horcruxes, she was dragged by Potter to carry out the task assigned to him by Dumbledore to destroy the Horcruxes. Although I don't think that can increase Potter's ability and mind, Dumbledore asked me to turn a blind eye. Fortunately, I don't have so much time to keep an eye on them. As long as they don't destroy Hogwarts or burn the Forbidden Forest, it's fine. At worst, there is Hermalena to keep the situation under control.
