By the time Ryan had followed the path through a few groves to the cabin where the living quarters were located, he found that Lupin's description could not describe how happy the werewolves were when they found themselves spending Christmas with them. Every werewolf who spotted Ryan would come up to him and hug or shake his hand, and Ryan felt that he was being treated the same way Harry when he was in his first year.

Soon they came to a room in the living quarters, and through the glass window on the wall, they could see that there was a middle-aged Auror werewolf talking on the stage, and there were eleven or twelve werewolf students listening to it, but except for Mary, a little girl sitting in the front row, who was listening attentively with a smile on her face, everyone else had a helpless expression on her face.

"What's going on here?" asked Ryan, curious, as he couldn't think of anything to teach in a classroom where adults and children would mix together.

"Grammar lessons. Lupin looked helpless. "A lot of werewolves were abandoned by their families when they were young, and after testing we found that they even had problems with reading and writing, so we had to do literacy. In addition to this, there have been too many other scattered troubles during this time. ”

"What is the cause of all this trouble?" asked Hermione.

"Because we are the first, and probably the only, group of good werewolves to come together in nearly a hundred years of history. Lupin smiled wryly, "Now there are 37 of us, and this includes most of the good werewolves in Britain and some of the good werewolves in other European countries. After coming together, we had to learn how to survive in a team because we had been alone for safety reasons. In this way, there will be countless problems, but fortunately, everyone hopes that the collective can continue to be good, and they are willing to give in, and our group is slowly maturing in the stumbles. ”

Looking at Lupin, who was tired in front of him, Ryan felt a little embarrassed. After all, the idea of gathering the werewolves now is his own, but because he is in school, everything here needs to be handled by Lupin.

Lupin saw Ryan's thoughts, he smiled and waved his hand: "Don't blame yourself, it's a great thing for me to do this job, and this time is also the happiest time for me." ”

Listening to Lupin's words, Ryan also smiled, he was right, at least Ryan found that Lupin's face was no longer the sad look of the past, although he looked tired but full of energy, and his eyes were full of hope.

"By the way, where are you going to spend Christmas this Christmas? I remember that the Weasleys had invited not only the two of us, but you and Tonks. Ryan asked, thinking of something.

"Definitely going to stay here. Lupin said with a serious face. "I used to go somewhere else for Christmas because I didn't have a home, but now ...... This is my home. Tonks would come to see me this Christmas, and she would be joined by some werewolf relatives and friends who had not been disconnected from her before. By the way, what about the two of you? I remember that none of your relatives are in the UK right now. ”

"We would also spend the whole holiday here without seeing us bring all our luggage. Hermione patted herself on the packet with a high-level Traceless Stretching Charm. "It's half of our home. ”

From then until Christmas, Ryan and the others lived here to communicate with the werewolves, while treating the werewolves at the rate of two people a week. Finally, on Christmas Eve, when Ryan and Hermione came out of the treatment room tiredly, the number of treated werewolves had reached 18, which was already more than the number of werewolves in Querut.

"Thank you very much, it's been so hard. After exiting the door, a large group of werewolves stood in two rows at the door of the treatment room and shouted, while bowing deeply.

"It's—" Ryan was moved, and Hermione even had some sparkles in the corners of her eyes.

"We heard that this is how Oriental people express their gratitude, so we express our gratitude in this way. At this point everyone began to walk in the direction of the restaurant, Lupin explained next to Ryan, who was standing next to her, while Hermione was pulled aside by Tonks and muttered something unknowingly.

Well, anyway, it's normal for Europeans to not be able to distinguish the cultural differences between several countries in the Far East, not to mention that most of the group in front of them are werewolves who have been living up before, Ryan thinks that as long as he has that heart, the form is not important.

Soon, they came to a brightly lit hall. The whole hall is decorated with colorful decorations, and in the center of the hall is a small Christmas tree full of shiny decorations.

Before eating, Lupin gave a brief speech to the nearly 50 werewolves, wizards, and Muggles below. In his speech, he concluded with a recent touch. "...... as we all know, the forces of evil have returned, there are those evil werewolves led by Greyback, who take pleasure in killing, and there are also a group of dark wizards who are more cruel and easy to kill than these werewolves. They will not allow werewolves like us to exist who are not on their side. In short, at this time, we must be united and vigilant, while keeping in mind our motto—"

At this time, all the werewolves stood up, and under the leadership of Lupin, they lowered their voices and read from their throats: "The snowflakes fall, the wind blows strongly, the lone wolf dies, and the wolves live forever." ”

"Are you going to take everyone into this war, even if it's bigger and more brutal than the last one?" asked Lane, who was sitting next to Lupin, as everyone gathered for tea and snacks after the banquet was over.

"Actually, we cherish our current life and don't want to get involved in war. But it is now clear that the choice of whether or not to participate in this war is not in our hands. Rather than passively getting involved in the war, it is better to be prepared early. At this point, Lupin paused, as if wondering whether he should say the next thing or not.

"Do you have anything to worry about?" Ryan asked in a whisper, keenly noticing Lupin's hesitation.

"That's right, all the werewolves, including me, want to work with you in the war. Lupin said this with a little cramped. Because he felt in his heart that this war had not yet reached the point where it was necessary for a minor like Ryan to shed blood.

However, werewolves who have been isolated for a long time need human comrades who can fight side by side with them, and the only wizards who can be recognized by all the werewolves here are Ryan and Hermione, and their treatment of werewolves has also shown that they are strong enough to take on the work that should be done by adults. So Lupin hesitated and said it anyway.

"Why don't you work with Dumbledore?" asked Ryan. "He should be stronger and more prestigious than me. ”

"If it were me, I would definitely choose to work with the principal. But now I'm responsible for all the werewolves here. Lupin seemed a little depressed. "Even in the Order of the Phoenix, most wizards still don't trust werewolves, and the same werewolves don't trust those wizards, and you're the only one we have. ”

"If that's the case, I'd be happy to take on that responsibility. While I may not be able to guarantee how much they will gain, I will try to bring them all back alive. "Ryan is glad that the werewolves are willing to join this war under his command.

The only reliable people that Ryan could use before were Rose Crystal, Jill, and Hermione. Even if the action can cause certain losses to the enemy, it is powerless to prevent it in the face of many tragedies. Now that he has a werewolf, Ryan feels that he can definitely make a bigger difference in this kind of manpower situation.

"Getting my compatriots home alive is my greatest goal, and I'm sure you can do it. Lupin said as he shook Ryan's hand vigorously.
