Chapter 291: Xeno's Discovery

"Master!"

"What is it, Dobby? We are in the middle of something here." Harry was about to have a serious conversation.

"You have a visit from the blonde Miss," Dobby said.

Harry pointed at Daphne. "She is right here..."

"Is that what he calls me?" She glanced at Harry. "My name is Daphne," she told Dobby. She had never seen a house elf who was so bad at remembering names.

"Not that one!" Dobby shook his head. "The weird one!"

"Luna?" Harry asked. "Isn't she here to see Lyra?"

Dobby shook his head again. "They asked to see Master."

"They...okay, fine." Harry knew there was little point in asking Dobby. "I'll go see."

"Do you mind if I accompany you? I haven't seen Luna in months,"

Daphne asked.

He opened the door to the small hall and found Luna sitting on a chair, happily moving her legs and mouthing some melody. Her father, Xeno, was pacing around in front of the fireplace, looking very shaken.

"Harry!" Luna smiled brightly, stood from her chair, and went to give him a hug.

"Hello, Luna. Did you have a good summer?"

"It was fun! We went to an ancient druid cottage and explored the forests in search of unique creatures." Luna looked very excited.

"Did you find anything?" Daphne had always been a bit skeptical about these creatures Luna always talked about. She had already seen enough weird things, so it wouldn't be much of a surprise if some of them were real.

"Mmm... I thought I saw some moon frogs... but they may have been albino toads instead," Luna said.

"I see..." Daphne had never heard of those.

"Yes." He reappeared in front of her.

"This is what you used against those werewolves!" She now remembered that he used something like that before. "The Cloak of Invisibility?..."

"That's right. You've seen me use that cloak many times," Harry said.

"You mean that cloak was..."

Harry nodded. "It was one of the Hallows. It had been passed down through many generations of my family. That's why I was so sad when it stopped working..."

"And I told you to buy another one..." Daphne muttered.

"It's fine. The Hallows stopped working because of me... because I took their powers without realizing it," Harry said.

"What about the other ones?... the Wand of Power," Daphne recalled the name.

Harry created a bubble of water above his hand. "It made my magic much more potent. It also improved my wandless magic."

The bubble of water turned into a block of ice, and then it began to change shapes until it transformed into a crystalline rose.

"Whoa!" Daphne stared at the ice sculpture. She knew Harry was a master of Transfiguration, but he did this silently and with no wand.

All of a sudden, the rose broke apart and the pieces fell to the floor.

"It lacks finesse though..." Harry added. "Still, it's very useful for other types of spells."

"Like for defense." Daphne concluded that he meant that. "And the last one? What was it?"

"The Stone of Resurrection," Xeno was the one who answered. "It allows the user to communicate with the dead."

Daphne gave Harry a nervous look. "Is that what you used with the werewolf?..." He did not go into details last year.

"Yes, that is what I used back then. But I won't make use of this power without a good reason for it. Disturbing the rest of the dead is not something to use lightly... even if that means you won't believe my words," Harry said.

Daphne's look softened. She got closer to Harry and grabbed one of his hands. "Even if you had shown me no proof whatsoever... I would have still believed you in the end."

The two of them stood in silence, looking at each other for a moment.

"Are you going to kiss?" Luna then asked.

Daphne was startled. She let go of Harry's hand and took a step back, covering her face with her witch hat.

Xeno coughed. "Sorry to interrupt. But I would like to finish what I came here for..."

"Right... the Fourth Deathly Hallow. What did you find exactly?" Harry asked.
