Before you know it, the night has fallen.

"Cheers to Gawain becoming a wizard!"

At the dinner table, Colin held up a large mug made of wooden sticks and shouted excitedly. The glass is filled with an amber liquor with a sweet aroma of honey.

The top button of Colin's shirt had been torn off, the blue tie had been tilted to the side, and a pale red had appeared on his face.

"That guy named Nash didn't lie to me, he deserved to be a magic cup. ”

Colin craned his neck and took a big sip, smiling contentedly, and gestured to his thumb.

The large mug was found during the day at a second-hand shop called the Junk Shop, and is said to have been used by Viking warriors at banquets, and was enchanted by the elves to sweeten the aroma of the mead.

But Gawain had seen the bottom of the cup before.

"328 Portobello Road, Charlie's handicraft workshop. ”

If he's not mistaken, there's a famous antiques souk on Portobello Road.

That is, the cup is uncompromising...

"Forget it, it's just a few silver Xike anyway. But seriously, the person who invented this currency conversion ratio was a French idiot with a twisted long nose. ”

Gawain thought with a smile, and by the way, he added a small piece of fried salmon to the "abyss" on the side.

He had never seen such a frenzied design.

The French don't dare to play like this!

One gold galleon is equal to 17 silver sicos, which is equal to 493 bronze nats.

And that's not even counting the pound and the exchange rate between Sico and Nat, and Gawain's sanity told him that the decimal point would probably be a bit of a headache for Colin.

"So who can tell me how many nats are 47 gold galleons, 9 silver sicos, and 17 bronze nats?"

While lifting the pumpkin juice and taking a heavy sip, Gawain easily tried to convert.

After saying goodbye to Hermione and buying the Abyss, he rushes straight to the Cauldron to meet up with Colin and Elsa.

There, he also met a somewhat "shy" wizard, who was said to have just returned from a place in Albania where he had to search for a long time on a map even if he knew the spelling, and who was his Defence Against the Dark Arts professor.

However, the man kept shivering, and insisted on bringing a white turban on such a hot day, and his body exuded a strong smell of garlic.

I don't know if I want to cover up the tragic reality of baldness, or if I want to try to marinate myself before winter.

Gawain greeted him, knowing that the stammering wizard was called Quirrell.

Although Professor Quirrell may seem a little eccentric, he is a nice guy and tells him many interesting facts about Hogwarts. The two hadn't been talking for long before Professor Quirrell was slapped on the back of the head by an acquaintance and pulled aside.

"But it sounds really crisp. ”

Subconsciously, he flexed his middle finger and wanted to try tapping it on Professor Quirrell's smooth skull.

"Gao Wen, there is still half a month before the start of school, do you have any arrangements?"

Elsa put down her knife and fork, wiped her mouth with a square towel to show that she was full, and turned to Gawain and said. Perhaps because of her happiness, she drank two more glasses with Colin for a long time, and her cheeks became a little red.

"Uh... Just read the book and try the magic again?"

Gawain thought about it and replied with some hesitation.

"If there's anything we need, let us know, but don't do it again. ”

She said firmly, and even Colin put down his glass and looked at Gawain.

"Well, I never will. ”

Gawain nodded, looked at Elsa and Colin and said.

"So be it, remember to clean up after eating. ”

Elsa stood up and poked Colin. Before he could drink it, he asked the stupid question "Why did I clean it up?" and she pointed at Gawain again and said, "Because Gawain made dinner." ”

Seeing Colin pick up the cup with some disdain, she leaned over with disgust. First fanned the wind with the palm of his hand, then gently kissed him on the cheek, and then lifted the pouch with light steps, and went upstairs with a low song.

"Every breath you take, it seems that Elsa is in a really good mood. ”

Gawain scratched his face and thought, ate the last bit of potatoes left on the plate, left the table to Colin, who had taken the tobacco out of his arms, and got up and went back to his room.

- His wand can't wait.

"Bathilda Basshat's History of Magic... There's still some time left to sleep, so why torture myself?"

"A Thousand Magical Herbs and Herbs... It will not contain onions. ”

"Standard Spell: Elementary, there it is. ”

Gawain took out the neatly stacked textbooks from his dragon skin pocket and rummaged through them one by one, until he saw the "Standard Spell" in bronze mounting, and then he took them out with satisfaction and placed them on his desk.

After thinking about it, he took out two more from the drawer of the bedside table.

They were "scholarships" offered by Dumbledore, and they were not the usual circulating versions, but were accompanied by some annotations made by himself.

"A Modern History of Magic, and..."The Tales of the Poet Pidou?"

Gawain scratched his head, tossed the two books aside, and opened Standard Mantra: Elementary.

As is the case with most secondary school textbooks, on the title page, the editor makes some polite remarks, thanking the publisher and the Ministry of Magic as the owner, and then explains the individual spells by chapter.

Considering that the reader is a first-year wizard, the book does not record any complex spells, and even if it is used as an optional reading, it is only a repair charm invented by Olabella Natley in 1754.

According to the note, she was a staff member of the Ministry of Magic's Office for the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic, and used this spell to restore the Colosseum, which had been destroyed by a fire dragon, in just half a day.

"Let's try it first... Light Charm, this should do. ”

Gao Wen first flipped through the entire book to make sure that there were no disclaimers such as "the first use must be done under the guidance of a wizard", and then turned to the first chapter, carefully studying the instructions on the spell.

"Hold your wand, empty your head, and gently shake it 30 degrees to the upper right while shouting a spell..."

Lumos (fluorescent scintillation). ”

Standing in front of his desk, Gawain held his wand in his right hand and made two gestures according to the diagram before shouting the incantation.

In that moment, he felt as if his perception was no longer confined to the physical body, but transcended it, forming a faint but clear connection with a larger space.

The light lit up.

At the tip of his black wand, a silver glow hung in the air.

Undoubtedly.

This is the spell he just cast.

"Meow!"

A black shadow jumped high and slammed into the chest of Gawain, who was staring at the silver light in a daze.
