Chapter 3 The first confrontation

The old mage did not show any embarrassment because of Victor's dodge. He just smiled apologetically, then stopped approaching and continued in a gentle and generous tone.

"Witches from the East, please don't be afraid. There is no danger here. But the environment here is really bad. Why not go to the office with me, the old man, to have a cup of Earl's black tea. I have freshly baked honey sugar, which is very suitable for the taste of young people."

"Okay, okay."

After hesitating for a moment, Victor nodded and agreed.

In any case, Dumbledore, who has the greatest white-robed wizard of this century, the leader of the Order of the Phoenix, and other halos, would never hurt a wizard from the far east for no reason, so he was still safe at this time, not to the point where he had to use the time and space gate. What's more, he was unwilling to leave like this. After all, in this world he was familiar with, it was easier to obtain those cute and charming gold coins and learn more magic.

"Young Oriental Wizard, please come with me."

Seeing Victor agreeing, Dumbledore blinked mischievously again and made an exaggerated invitation gesture.

"OK."

Victor nodded politely.

Then, he put away the time and space gate behind him and followed the old mage's footsteps.

Based on the time when Dumbledore appeared and surrounding environment, he speculated that this place might be the forbidden forest of Hogwarts, and there were too many unknown dangers, so it would be better to leave earlier.

The old mage who was moving forward looked at the Time and Space Gate curiously, but did not ask any questions. Through the contact just now, he already knew that Victor was a very cautious person. If he wanted to get some small secrets from such people, impatientness was the biggest enemy.

...

"OrientalWizard (the wizard of the East)..."

"Blackeyes and black hair, indeed..."

"OftheOrient (the mysterious ancient country of the East)..."

“…”

Victor just entered the honeycomb...Hogwarts' principal's office and heard countless portraits whispering.

He turned his head curiously, his eyes flashed through these portraits of principals of all generations, and after a few glances, he lost interest.

These portraits were of no value to him, and they were talking about all of them in English that he couldn't understand, so they were naturally too lazy to watch. However, his eyes did not stop. There were many things he was interested in in the principal's office, such as the old and broken branch hat, the daze phoenix named Fox, and the wall filled with books...

At the same time, he was also thinking about a question secretly.

How to gain Dumbledore's trust and facilitate his next actions.

The old wizard, who had already sat on the chair, silently stared at Victor who was curiously looking around. There seemed to be a glimmer of light flashing in his light blue eyes hidden under his glasses.

He was very curious about the young wizard who appeared out of thin air in the Forbidden Forest and caused a violent reaction from Hogwarts Castle. So when he found out that wizard, he did not contact him immediately, but chose to observe secretly. What happened later proved that he was right. The mystery of the young wizard was beyond his expectations, those specious magic, the mysterious and weird wooden door, and everything about Hogwarts who knew nothing about English.

Thinking of this last point, the old mage's heart suddenly moved.

Tom, will it be you?

However, this idea didn't exist for long, and it was temporarily rejected by the old mage. Voldemort, his only opponent in the second half of his life, would never send such a reckless little guy to Hogwarts. Of course, he would never relax his vigilance because of this. After all, this is just a guess. No one except the person involved dared to be 100% sure.

After thinking for a long time, the old mage finally decided to make a small test.

So Dumbledore spoke first, breaking the silence between the two and pushing the tea that had been prepared to Victor.

"Young Oriental Wizard, your Earl Black Tea."

"Thanks."

Victor bowed slightly to express his gratitude.

Then, he changed his tone slightly and politely refused the old master.

"But I don't like sweet black tea, so please forgive me, sir."

He never agrees with the unique taste of this old wizard, not to mention that according to the description of some fan novels, this person especially likes to add some real-life sperm to the drink, so it would be strange if he could drink it without warning.

Victor's refusal made the old mage show an exaggerated depressive expression. He paused and asked carefully again.

"So a glass of pumpkin juice?"

"Thank you, really no need."

Victor continued to refuse without surprise.

"oh."

Hearing this, the old mage covered his chest in pain and moaned.

He seemed to be heartbroken by Victor.

On the sofa, Victor watched the old mage performing steadily, suddenly stood up hard, took a deep breath, and said in a very formal tone.

"My name is Victor, and the principal can call me Vic."

"Okay, Vic."

Seeing the young wizard's appearance, the old wizard couldn't help but put away his exaggerated performance, adding a little solemnity to his tone.

Victor took a deep breath again and said the words he had just finalized.

"I know you are very curious about my origin, Principal Dumbledore, please don't deny it... Everyone has secrets that they don't want to share with others, so please don't force me... You just need to know that I have no harm to Hogwarts and the entire magic world... We have a common enemy, Tom, Tom Marvoro Riddle."

Hearing this name, the old mage suddenly stood up and asked in a thick and low voice.

"What do you know?"

At this moment, there was no trace of kindness and peace in the elderly mage. Now he looked more like a hideous giant dragon ready to attack at any time.

At the same time, a strange and tiny spiritual tentacle entered Victor's perception range and explored his thinking.

Soul-grabbing thoughts.

Soul-catching thoughts?

Thinking of the dark magic that Dumbledore is good at, Victor's face suddenly became cold.

"Please put away your soul-catching thoughts."

At the same time, he mobilized the magic power of the rotation inside his body and kept the thin spiritual tentacle out.

However, he did not summon the time and space gate to run away, because the old mage's reaction at this time was completely within his expectations.

Fundamentally speaking, there is no conflict between the two people's requests.

What Victor needs is Jin Garon, what Dumbledore needs is the prosperity and stability of the magic world, and the two can choose to cooperate. If they want to cooperate, the most important thing is to gain Dumbledore's trust. Naturally, a snake-faced man who is most concerned by an old mage, Voldemort, the ultimate villain in the whole novel, was recalled by a time traveler and threw it out.

Now it seems that the results achieved... are perfect.
