Chương 205: Chapter 204 Big Parent
Fawkes' appearance filled the students on board with surprise.
These children, who had been brought on board the wagon since they were 11 years old, had lived and studied at Hogwarts for all these years and had never been separated from the professors for such a long time as they had been during this time.
They were no strangers to Dumbledore's pet, and a number of students had excitement written all over their faces after seeing Fawkes, and then Jon picked up a small bag of green powder from its Talons.
Phoenix can sing, but certainly can not speak, Jon is not familiar with him to be able to communicate with him like Dumbledore, being able to understand the meaning just by eye contact.
But even if there is no hint, Jon recognized what thing Fawkes brought here.
He did not avoid the other students, he chose the fireplace in the great hall, pinched out a small pinch of green powder from a small bag, and sprinkled it into the fireplace fire.
The next second, under the eyes of the students on the entire ship, the original orange fire instantly became a light green, followed by a familiar face everyone familiar with formed from these green flames.
Dumbledore's face still has that same gentle smile, and he doesn't look much different, there's a burst of fire flying behind him, and it looks like he's not the only one around.
The students cheered.
They all called out to Professor Dumbledore, and everyone looked like they had a lot to say to him, Dumbledore smiled and everyone spoke one after the other. Even if you include the sixth and seventh-year students who have graduated early, there are less than a hundred people on the whole wagon, so he can name everyone, as well be very familiar with everyone's personality.
He chatted with all of them, not about war, death or the situation there, but as if nothing had changed between now and then.
The students talked about the recent fishing contest where Justin, a third-year had won, and how he had somehow managed to catch a small shark by mistake; that many of them are learning the Patronus Charm, and some of them have even been able to summon filaments of light; that even at sea they are not relaxing, and that by the time of this year's final exams, everyone will surely be able to meet the usual professors' requirements for attainment, if there is still a final exam this year.
Dumbledore agreed and said that he would give Justin a gold medal and hang his name in the honour room of Hogwarts; expressed his amazement that they could already learn the Patronus Charm at such a young age, and seriously thought that he would consider adding the Patronus Charm to the regular Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the future; and finally winked and pretended to be serious, saying that there would definitely be a normal final exam this year and the requirements would not be lowered, but probably would be raised, so that they should not neglect.
He was like a big parent to all of them, giving people the most reassuring warmth no matter what time it was.
The exchange lasted for more than an hour, in the middle of which Jon also added another pinch of floo powder, and only when it was time for the students to go to class normally they finally left from the great hall reluctantly.
Only Jon and Nick were left alone here, along with Fawkes, who was standing at the table stealing glances at a grape vine Jon had brought to him, with a haughty look of both wanting to eat but also wanting to put up a show.
"Looks like you're taking good care of them all, Captain Green."
Dumbledore apparently heard this new title for Jon from the other students and said with a smile.
Jon shrugged.
"There is nothing to take care of them, and we are not children who stay with our parents carefree all day, we know how to take care of ourselves."
Dumbledore's expression looked a little emotional, he had been Headmaster for decades, and it was both reassuring and sad that the students in Hogwarts today are having the toughest time possible and still being cheerful.
"We have just departed from Azkaban Island."
Instead of unnecessary pleasantries, Jon got right to the point.
"Despite the twists and turns, the gains were just as great. What the Dark Lord once left on that island was found by us, and we can have Fawkes bring it back later, and in addition to that, there were some unexpected gains."
He told the story of taking Scabior and Macnair captive, while also including the words he had inquired out of them.
"-The two of them should bring some help to your side Professor, so we brought both of them back, and they could be taken back by Fawkes as well."
"This is indeed an unexpected delight. During this period of time, there are more and more strange Aurors in France, and we can guess that the Dark Lord has mobilized the British forces to reinforce the situation here, but just relying on our words, I guess few people will believe it. With these two people you caught, it would be considered as evidence."
Dumbledore whispered with a serious gaze.
"But there is also a point you guys should pay attention to, even if you hide your true identity and wait for the events that happened in Azkaban to reach the Dark Lord after, he must be aware that we did this. This suspicion does not require evidence, because the only people who can go against him and have the ability to do so are us. I will try to keep an eye on him on the French side, and you need to pay attention next, he certainly must know better than anyone else what places he went to at that time, and what kind of arrangements he made."
Jon nodded and said as he went along with the subject.
"After we left Azkaban, Nick mentioned that we would be going to a high tower in the middle of the ocean next?"
"That's right, I tried to go up to that tower once, under another identity, and the old wizard who lives in it is a bit inconsiderate in his attitude, but generally a nice person to be around." Dumbledore said, "I can feel that there are some special arrangements on that tower, which I didn't investigate in detail, when the Dark Lord prepared it, he must have taken me as a precautionary object for defence. So no matter what you encounter, you must not easily put down your guard."
Sure enough, as Nick said, even if the trip was designed by Dumbledore, there is no way to have a clear understanding of how exactly their voyage will be followed.
After all, their destination and direction, are derived through prophecy, which inevitably will produce a lot of unexpected surprises.
"Is everything going well on your end? Professor."
"That you certainly don't have to worry about, we are all good here, and gathered a number of people with the same goal." Dumbledore's gaze deepened, "Looking on the bright side, I don't think it will be long before we will meet in advance, Jon."
