Harry Potter and the Old Ones

That night, Tiera and the other Gryffindors played and joked until very late. When Tiera returned to the dormitory, Harry and the others were already asleep.

Tiera didn't feel sleepy, so she grabbed a book and returned to the Gryffindor common room to read——

Anyway, sleeping is no longer a necessity for Tiera. Instead of wasting time on sleep, Tiera would rather spend it reading. Especially now that the situation has changed greatly, Tiera is even more willing to spend time reading. You need to change your plans accordingly.

And Tiera couldn't sleep at all until she devised a complete plan that could take advantage of every corner -

Now that Tiera can sleep a little longer, she feels overwhelmed.

While Tiera was reading a book and thinking about what she should do in the future, one after another house elves appeared in the Gryffindor common room and began to clean up the mess left by the carnival.

Tiera saw these house elves and suddenly had an idea——

An evil preliminary plan gradually emerged in Tiera's mind.

"Mr. house elves." Tiera smiled and called out to the house elves who were cleaning.

But what they got in exchange was the fearful attitude of those house elves.

Several house elves seemed to be frightened by Tiera's "Sir". They dropped what they were doing and stood there at a loss, even looking at Tiera in horror.

"Little Master Lockhart..." one of the older house elves said, "My name is Kirby, you can just call me Kirby... We can't afford the word sir..."

Several other house elves stood behind Kirby and nodded wildly.

"Okay, Kirby." Tiera sighed helplessly, and then said, "Trouble Kirby, please help me deliver the message."

"What's the news? Little Master." Carbon asked.

"Tell Luna Lovegood, a third-year Ravenclaw student for me, that Tiera Lockhart would like to meet on the lawn east of the Black Lake after breakfast tomorrow morning to discuss something. Let’s talk, I wonder if she can appreciate it.”

"Okay, little master." Kirby bent over and lowered his head and said, "Kirby will definitely convey Little Master Lockhart's words to little Master Lovegood's ears."

"Thank you then." Tiera said with a smile.

"Oh... no, you're welcome." Kirby lowered his head even more humbly and said, "It is our honor to serve the little masters of Hogwarts."

"I am also lucky to be served by you." Tiera responded with a smile——

This group of house elves were flattered by Tiera's behavior.

…

The next day was Sunday. Although Harry didn't have much sleepiness, because of the series of events that happened yesterday, Harry was too tired, so he still slept until about three o'clock in the morning.

When Harry woke up, he lay in bed in confusion for a long time before he remembered why he felt so sad and anxious.

Then, what happened last night suddenly came to mind. He sat up and opened the curtains of his four-poster bed, trying to talk to Ron, forcing Ron to believe him——

Only to find that Ron's bed was empty. He had obviously gone downstairs for breakfast.

Harry looked to the other side -

Harry wanted to talk to Tiera.

But Tiera's bed was also empty...

No, to be precise, Tiera's bed was neat and tidy, and there wasn't even a sign that she had slept on it——

Harry quickly got dressed and walked along the spiral staircase to the common room below. As soon as he appeared, the classmates who had already had breakfast cheered enthusiastically again.

He was a little scared when he thought about having to enter the Great Hall and face the other Gryffindor students, who all regarded him as a hero.

But if he didn't go to the Great Hall, he would have to stay here and let himself be entangled by the Creevey brothers. Harry's two fans, one big and one small, were desperately waving to him, hoping that he would come to them.

So, Harry decisively walked towards the hole behind the portrait, pushed it open, and walked out——

He met Hermione impartially.

"Good morning," Hermione said, holding up a stack of bread wrapped in a napkin. "I thought you might not want to go to the Great Hall for dinner, so... would you like to take a walk?"

"Good idea," Harry said gratefully.

They went downstairs and quickly crossed the foyer without so much as a glance at the auditorium.

Soon, they were striding on the lawn that extended toward the lake.

Durmstrang's large ship was moored on the lake, casting a dark reflection in the water.

It was a cold morning, and as they walked and munched bread, Harry told Hermione exactly what had happened since he left the Gryffindor table the night before. To his great relief, Hermione accepted his statement without reservation.

"Of course I know you didn't sign up yourself! Only a fool would think that you put your name in." After he finished telling what happened in the room next to the auditorium, Hermione said firmly, "Look at Dumbledore's report That look on your face when I said your name! You can't fool me."

"Um...well, thank you for trusting me, Hermione." Harry said gratefully.

"The question is, who put your name in? You know, Moody's right, Harry... I don't think any student could do that... There's no way a student could cheat the Goblet of Fire, nor Maybe the one that crosses Dumbledore -" Hermione said as she walked. Suddenly, Hermione was stunned and stopped. She quietly took a few steps back, then moved a few steps to the left, and then her eyes died. Staring at the east coast of the Black Lake.

Harry also followed Hermione's gaze -

Harry saw Tiera at a glance:

Tiera was half sitting and half lying on the roots of a willow tree on the east bank of the Black Lake. She was talking and laughing, and was making gestures in the air with her hands, as if she was explaining something to the people next to her.

Next to Tiera, there was a thin girl with light blond hair, smiling brightly and looking up at Tiera.

"Who is that girl?" Harry asked.

"She seems to be crazy... cough... her name seems to be Luna Lovegood." Hermione thought for a moment and then said, "What are they talking about?"

"Come on, let's go over and take a look." Harry said, and then walked straight towards Tiera——

"Hey, Harry, wait!" Hermione shouted after Harry, looking as if she wanted to stop him, but she followed suit.

When Harry and Hermione approached the lake, the exchange between Tiera and Luna Lovegood seemed to have come to an end——

"Then it's settled!" Harry heard Tiera say.

"Well, then we've settled." Luna responded with a smile, and then made an OK gesture.
