Chapter 110: vault key
Chapter 110 Vault Key
After hearing Dumbledore's words, Kyle was quite surprised.
Only students who have made significant contributions to Hogwarts can receive the Special Contribution to the School Award, which is also the highest personal honor for young wizards during their school years.
Fifty years ago, a certain famous noseless wizard, the originator of the Defense Against the Dark Arts curse, Mr. Tom the Soul Splitter, won this award in fifth grade.
But Kyle is only in the first grade now, a full four years ahead of him.
From this aspect alone, Kyle could point to the opponent's nose...maxilla and say very frankly, "You are too inferior."
As for what will happen after this is finished, that is another story.
“Thank you for your comment, principal.” Kyle smiled.
What he was grateful for was not the special contribution award, but Dumbledore's words just now.
Especially the four words "noble spirit"...
Either we say that Lao Deng can be the principal, because his inner qualities can be seen at a glance.
It’s okay if you don’t accept it.
"You deserve this, you deserve it." Dumbledore blinked and said: "Very few people have the courage to face two adult wizards alone in the first grade, let alone you defeated Got one.
The school directors unanimously believe that awarding you the Special Contribution Award to the school is the most correct decision I have made this year. "
They were probably afraid of trouble, Kyle said in his heart. He didn't think the school board thought so much.
Different from Dumbledore who was focused on school, they were more concerned about their own interests.
If Kyle really died in the Forbidden Forest, it wouldn't be long before the entire wizarding world knew that the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts would kill students.
By then, Hogwarts will be in a lot of trouble even if it doesn't close. Naturally, the school directors don't want this to happen.
Fortunately, Kyle is fine.
They probably want to use this special contribution award to reward Chris and Diana.
But Kyle didn’t bother to care what they thought, at least he was satisfied with the current result.
“Principal, there is one more thing.”
“Just ask.”
“As for Hagrid, I noticed he wasn’t in the house at the time.”
"In fact, Hagrid was the first person to be attacked yesterday." Dumbledore said: "Oren tricked him into drinking the undiluted venom of the Crooked Wing Demon, and then after Hagrid fell into a coma, Hidden him in the Forbidden Forest.”
“Then Hagrid now…”
"Don't worry Kyle, Hagrid is in better health than ordinary wizards and his life is not in danger."
Dumbledore consoled him: "And I also got the method to eliminate the venom of the Crooked Devil from Newt. He will be back from St. Mungo's soon."
Kyle breathed a sigh of relief. He almost forgot that Hagrid was a half-giant with thick blood and high defense.
Furthermore, the venom of the Winged Demon is a bit special. Compared to spilling it on the body, drinking it is not that serious.
“Principal, I have one last question.”
"Tell me."
"That witch..." Kyle said: "Why did she hide with Connor."
“Ah, I’ve been wondering when you were going to ask about it.”
Dumbledore said: "I'm sorry Kyle, because this matter is related to the Prince family, I can't say much to you. I can only tell you that the witch does have bad intentions, and her purpose is to key."
"key?"
"That's right, the key to the Gringotts vault." Dumbledore said quietly: "Her identity is very special. As long as she can get the key to the vault, she can take away all the inheritance left by the Connor family in an open and honest manner."
Kyle frowned. The word inheritance made him think of something for a moment.
He looked at Dumbledore, but got no response. Dumbledore didn't seem to want to continue this topic anymore. He put the box of Bibi's multi-flavor beans next to the bed and said with a smile: "Okay, enough questions. I suggest you start enjoying these." Candy bar. I just noticed there are mint-flavored cockroach piles inside...this is a limited edition candy."
"If you like it, I can forward it to you." Kyle said sincerely.
These words are not adulterated at all, he really wants to send those cockroaches away.
But Dumbledore refused.
He stood up and said: "Finally, I have to ask you to forgive me. Because of some things, I was not at the castle yesterday, so I did not show up in time when you were in the most danger. This is my dereliction of duty as the principal."
“It’s okay, you don’t have to worry about it.”
…
Cale did not stay in the school hospital for too long. Madam Pomfrey agreed to his request to be discharged shortly after Dumbledore left.
Thanks to his usual good popularity, Kyle was surrounded by a group of people as soon as he returned to the Hufflepuff common room, and he had to respond to their concerns one by one.
An hour later, it was still the familiar abandoned classroom.
“Kyle, I heard you killed an adult wizard?!”
As soon as they met, Fred couldn't wait to ask: "Is this true?"
"Don't try to deny it." George said: "When the strikers left the Forbidden Forest, someone heard their conversation. The witch brought back by Professor McGonagall was beaten like that by you."
…”
Does the Striker have such a poor sense of confidentiality? Why not let Aurors do such an important task?
Kyle rubbed his forehead. Fortunately, he didn’t want to hide it.
"It's just good luck, the other party is too weak." Kyle said: "I guess she must not have attended Hogwarts."
“Please, that’s an adult wizard who can use black magic, please don’t make it so easy as you say.”
Cedric said jokingly: "This will make us look useless."
"Okay." Kyle said in a good-natured way: "I actually experienced nine deaths, and then I waited hard for rescue and survived from the hands of the dark wizard."
George nodded pretending to be serious, "This sounds much more comfortable."
“But I didn’t see it at all. Professor Oren is actually a dark wizard.”
Cedric sighed: "And his class is also very interesting, much better than last year."
“Attention, Cedric.” Fred reminded: “Oren is no longer a professor. He almost killed Kyle.”
"Sorry, I'm just used to it." Cedric apologized quickly.
“No one thought of it.” Qiu on the side said: “Even Davis couldn’t believe it was true. He also thought it was someone else using polyjuice potion to impersonate Oren.
By the way, Davis is the boy who wanted to complain about Oren before, and he almost got into a fight with you Gryffindors. "
"I know him." Fred sighed, "He's right, we all got the wrong guy."
Speaking of Oren, several people became silent for a long time. Even Fred and George, who were usually the most cheerful, became quiet.
They liked Oren very much before, and they expected him to break the curse and stay at Hogwarts next year.
But now everything has changed, Oren is actually a dark wizard!
They will probably never meet a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor who is humorous in class and doesn't check his homework.
For a while, the classroom suddenly became quiet, and no one among the five people spoke.
That's right, there are only five people here this time, and the youngest one is Kang Na.
The incident about Pochi...or that witch was a big blow to her. She had been shutting herself in the dormitory these past few days, and she only came out to take a look when Kyle returned to the common room after being discharged from the hospital.
But others didn’t know this. Cedric and the others thought Kangna was frightened, so they kept hiding in the dormitory.
