Obscure at Hogwarts

Chapter 252 Magic Mirror

If Ron were replaced by George and Fred, who dreamed of going to the North Tower to hunt for treasure, no matter how bizarre the events they experienced, their first reaction would definitely be excitement and excitement.

It was Ron instead.

Ok

Currently in a corridor made of bricks and stones, he was in a panic, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably. After a while, he muttered to himself:

"Where is this?"

"Can someone help me?"

"Help! Help!"

When Ron called for help, there was already a hint of crying in his voice.

After calling loudly for several minutes, Ron, who had still not received any response, knelt down on the cold ground, tears bursting out of his eyes, and he burst into tears.

But no problem can be solved by crying.

Ron, who had been crying for who knows how long, stretched out his sleeves to wipe away the tears, realized this, stood up and rubbed his legs that were numb from kneeling, and only mustered up the courage to walk along the corridor.

Then, slowly walking to the first fork in the corridor, Ron recalled the fear of being dominated by the maze for a moment, and he couldn't help but hesitate when choosing the path forward.

finally.

Ron decided to use the most scientific way to choose the way forward.

That is

Throw shoes.

However, this time, Lady Luck did not fall in love with Ron, who had always been unlucky. He walked forward in the direction pointed by the toe of his shoe, and soon he entered a dead end.

Looking at the reflection of himself alone in the mirror placed at the end of the road, Ron felt his nose was sore and his eyes couldn't help but turn red again.

Then, just as Ron's first tear ran down his cheek, without him making any move, he reflected in the mirror stretched out his hand to wipe his cheek, and then asked with a smile. :

"Hey, little guy, are you in any trouble?"

"What?"

"Mine actually moves in the mirror?!"

"Ghost!"

When Ron heard the sound in the mirror echoing in his ears, how could he have any intention of seeking help from himself in the mirror?

I was almost scared to pee on the spot, okay? !

Unfortunately, no matter how much Ron wanted to escape at this time, the magic power emerging from the mirror forced him to stay in place.

at the same time.

Ron, who was originally reflected in the mirror, suddenly turned into a kind old man who looked somewhat similar to Galio. He looked at Ron and continued to smile and said:

"Little guy, did I just scare you? I'm sorry, I actually didn't mean any harm, I just wanted to help you."

"Who are you?"

Ron asked in a panic: "Is it a ghost living in the mirror?"

"Ghost? Oh no, I'm not."

The old man in the mirror shook his head and said: "I am the mirror you see, and the mirror you see is me. To be precise, I am a creature created by Mr. Smith using magic. You can just call me Mir."

"Mimir?"

“What a strange title”

Perhaps because he realized that the old man in the mirror did not have any malicious intent, or perhaps because he wanted to leave here as soon as possible, Ron took a few deep breaths to calm down and asked urgently:

"Mr. Mill, may I ask why I am here? Where is this place?"

"Here? It should be the north tower of the castle!"

Mir pondered for a moment and said: "As for why you appear here, I'm not very sure."

"correct!"

As he spoke, Mir seemed to suddenly remember something and asked:

"Little guy, what's your name? Are you a descendant of Mr. Smith? If so, I think I can give you a nice gift!"

"Uh, sorry, my name is Ron Weasley, and I was invited by Mr. Quinn to be a guest here."

Ron first shook his head in reply, then asked curiously:

"Mr. Mill, what gift are you talking about? Is it the treasure left by Mr. Smith?"

"You guessed it right, it is indeed the treasure left by Mr. Smith."

Mir sighed deeply and said: "Unfortunately, Mr. Smith told me back then that I must personally hand over the treasure to his descendants, otherwise"

"What else?" Ron's eyes lit up and he asked with some expectation.

"Otherwise!"

Mir looked at Ron and said: "It might be a good idea to give it to you. After all, I personally think that gift is very suitable for you. You are one of the few young wizards with outstanding talents!"

Suddenly receiving a high praise from a stranger, the young and ignorant Ron couldn't help but blush with excitement. He really wanted to move this mirror to George and Fred, who were always teasing him, so that they could kiss. Listen to how others praise you.

Moreover, when a treasure is close at hand, who can pat their chests and guarantee that they don’t want to see what the treasure is?

Ron certainly couldn't.

then.

Ron, who faced Mill again, suggested: "Mr. Mill, I am friends with Galen, Lux, Kyle, and Kevin from the Smith family. Since Mr. Smith, who created you, said that he would hand over the treasure to his descendants. , how about you let me do it for you?"

Mir glanced at Ron suspiciously and said doubtfully: "Little guy, if I give the treasure to you, are you sure you can suppress the greed in your heart and give the treasure to the descendants of the Smith family?"

"You know, the treasure left by Mr. Smith is extremely precious. Obtaining it can directly make a person a great wizard!"

Ron nodded vigorously and said, "I'm sure!"

"Well!"

Seeing Ron's confident look, Mil shook his head, smiled, and replied:

"Little guy, although I believe you are an honest child, I must test you before handing the treasure to you!"

The voice just fell.

Milwan didn't give Ron any time to prepare.

next second.

"buzz"

Part of the magic that diffused from the mirror suddenly involved Ron into the world inside the mirror, which heralded the official beginning of the test that Mir mentioned, part of which was a test of integrity.

And is Ron a man of integrity?

The answer is undoubtedly yes.

He just wanted to know what the treasure left by Smith's ancestors was, and he really didn't have any intention of taking the treasure privately.

Moreover, Ron, who is in the mirror world, will definitely be able to choose the most correct one among the many answers provided by Mir, knowing that it is a test.

Therefore, with the end of Mir's three rounds of tests, Ron successfully obtained the treasure stored here by Smith's ancestors.

But what Ron found somewhat difficult to accept was that

The treasure left by Smith's ancestors was none other than the mirror where Mir was.

later.

Watching the mirror that was originally three meters high slowly shrinking to a size that he could just hold, Ron's mouth twitched slightly, but he still couldn't help but ask:

"Mr. Mill, was the treasure left by Mr. Smith actually yours?"

"of course."

Mir's voice came from the mirror and said undeniably: "Ron, do you think I am not worthy of being Mr. Smith's treasure?"

"No no."

Ron shook his head hurriedly and said:

"I just want to say Mr. Mir, how exactly do you make the person who possesses you become a great wizard?"

"Do you want to try it?"

Mir asked a question first, then let out bursts of proud laughter and affirmed:

"Ron, let me let you"

"Try it!"
