Chapter 17: The Eve of All Saints

During dinner, the Granger family kept asking Egg about the wizarding world.

"Can a wizard conjure food directly?" Jane looked at Iger and wondered

Egg shook his head: "Even magic, it can't be created out of nothing, it all has to follow a law, but we can change the form of something for a short time." ”

As he spoke, Iger waved his hand, and several birds flew around the dining table, and Iger snapped his fingers, and the birds dissipated.

"I used to think that our Hermione would become a lawyer or a doctor or something, and it would be nice to inherit our dental hospital, but now it seems that she has a better choice, right?" Chris rubbed Hermione's little head, and Hermione squinted like a kitten and looked happy.

Immediately looking at Egg, who was eating turkey legs, Hermione asked with some concern, "By the time I go to school, will I have bad grades, I mean... I was a little nervous. Egger, you're so good. ”

"Don't say that." Egg licked the oil off his lips, "Actually, I don't know anything except Defense Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration, and Charms. ”

"How is the course?" Hermione asked.

"Of course," Egg shrugged, "potions, divination, history of magic, magical creatures, flying lessons... A whole bunch of messes. ”

Looking at Hermione, who was a little worried, Egg shook his head and handed over his wand: "Wave, shake, the spell is Yuga Dim Leviosa, pay attention to the pronunciation, you can try it against your dinner knife." ”

Hermione's eyes lit up suddenly, and Ai Ai looked at Egg: "I... Can I? ”

"Of course, I said, you have a talent for magic." Iger nodded.

Hermione looked nervously at her dinner knife and flicked her wrist: "Yuga Dim Leviosa!" ”

Immediately, the knife floated in Hermione's gaze, and with a move from the tip of Hermione's staff, the knife shifted to a different position.

The Granger couple looked at their daughter with obvious pride.

Before he could be happy, there was a knock on the door, and Chris opened it, revealing a man in a dark robe standing outside the door.

"Are you looking for Egger?" Mr. Granger asked, looking at what the other man was wearing.

The visitor nodded, "Excuse me, sir." ”

Egger looked in the direction of the living room door and laughed, "Kingsley, how are you doing?" ”

"I feel terrible to have you here..."Kingsley glanced at Egger, "Children who haven't gone to school before use magic to touch the traces, but when they use wands it's different, this is my area in charge, Egger, you shouldn't lend a wand to a child." ”

"I'm a kid too—" Egg looked at Kingsley.

"Don't talk about that, we all know you're not like Egger." Kingsley shook his head, clearly unhappy with Egger's approach.

Iger looked at him for a long time, then his little face fell, and he looked at Kingsley pitifully: "Please... Help? ”

Kingsley looked at Egg and shook his head helplessly: "Okay, but you have to promise me not to teach too dangerous spells, I know Egg, Dumbledore said that you may also know the killing curse, I don't doubt your ability to cast it at all..."

Iger snorted, "I won't use it, you're here to talk to me about this?" ”

Kingsley looked at Egger, and then he thought for a moment and said, "Bad news for you, Egger, Lady Morissus has died. ”

Egger felt his heart beat violently, and a trace of black qi came out of his body, and then disappeared into his chest.

"When?" Iger was stunned.

"On the day you broke out silently, I personally went to communicate with her, and I said that you came to the wizarding world, and you will be taken care of in the future, and you will live well, and then she asked me if the wizard can take out people's memories." Kingsley's voice was low, and he reached out and handed over a small bottle, and the silver rippled in the small bottle: "She left with a smile, you don't have to worry, here is the memory of when she picked you up, she thinks it might help you." ”

Iger reached for the vial, a little dazed, not knowing what to say.

"If you have time, go and see her, the location is in the cemetery in the western suburbs." Kingsley touched Egger's head, "We'll all be with you, Egger, you're not alone." ”

Egg felt his throat choke and mumbled.

A few minutes later, Kingsley said goodbye to the Granger family and hurried away, and Chris stepped forward to put his arm around Iger's shoulder, his voice soft.

"Kid, you still have us." Chris patted Iger on the shoulder and said, "This will always be your home." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Granger," Iger grinned.

Death isn't scary, maybe Old Lady Hull is now looking curiously at the new world? Like yourself?

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine." Iger wiped the corners of his eyes, returned to the table, and took the bottle containing the memories of Old Lady Hull into the bag: "I'll go see her in the evening." ”

"Cheer up, Egger." Chris smiled, "And call me Uncle Chris." ”

"Call me Aunt Jane." Jane held her chin and smiled softly at Egger.

Hermione looked at Egg, thought about it and opened her mouth: "Just call me Hermione, you don't need to call my sister." ”

When the words fell, several people laughed.

Late at night, in a cemetery in the western suburbs of London, Iger stood silently in front of a stone monument.

'Hel Morissus, a loving and great orphanage director. ’

There was a line of words carved on the stone tablet, and with a slight stroke of Egger's fingers, the words of the orphanage director disappeared suddenly, and he wrote a few words casually.

'A loving and great mother...'

"At least that's what I think, right?" Egger's eyes were red.

……

"Old lady Hull, why is our surname vicious?"

The young boy sat in the arms of an old woman and asked curiously.

"I was an orphan at the beginning, and my name is the surname of the man who adopted me, Hel." The old woman's wrinkled lips opened: "Then some people laughed at me for being an orphan, and I beat them up and stole their eggs and smashed them on the windows of their house, and since then they have called me the vicious Hull." ”

"Do you know why your name is Egger? Small eggs? Old Lady Hull laughed and smirked, "In their eyes this is vicious, in my eyes this is strong and unyielding, doesn't Moritis sound quite good?" ”

"Oh," the child nodded.

……

Since then, Iger has lived in the Granger family, and since Iger has nothing to do every day, the Granger couple asked him to pick Hermione to and from school, as well as buy some ingredients for dinner.

The only thing that made Iger feel a little uncomfortable was that the Granger family prayed every day before eating, and Iger didn't know what they believed.

Anyway, since Egg came to the wizarding world, he has converted to Merlin...

Merlin certainly won't let him pray before cooking, trouble is dead...

All the way to the gate of Hermione's school, the bell rang, a large group of children chirped out, Hermione walked out of the school with her schoolbag bowed her head, and walked out of the school with some puff.

A few girls behind her walked past her with a grin, and pulled Hermione's unkempt hair as they passed.

"Big teeth! Briefly! ”

"I wonder if she washes her hair or not, look at the bird's nest-like hair."

"What's the big deal about studying well, nerd!" A girl snorted, and then several little girls chirped past Egger and turned to Hermione and shouted, "Look, Granger's boyfriend is coming to pick her up!" ”

There was another burst of laughter, Hermione's face was red like a ripe tomato, tears were wiped from her eyes, she reached out and pulled Egg's arm to leave, Egg smiled, followed Hermione away, and when she turned around, several girls' front teeth suddenly grew wildly, and several birds flew in the sky, dropping poop on their heads.

Incisor plug stick!

Listening to the screams coming from behind her, Hermione turned her head in surprise and saw Egg's smiling eyes.

"Of course I don't bother with a few little Muggle girls." Egg grinned, "But there's always a lesson, right?" ”

Hermione burst out laughing, her face flushed, and she took Egger's hand and walked home.

"Tomorrow is Halloween, and although it's not as good as Christmas, you should also prepare some gifts." Egger thought for a moment, "Do you want to go to Diagon Alley to have a look?" ”

Hermione's eyes lit up and she nodded, looking at Egg expectantly.

The two returned home, put down the vegetables they bought and Hermione's school bag, and Egg took Hermione's little hand: "The first apparition may be disgusting, I hope you feel better." ”

Hermione was a little puzzled, and then a twist came, a squeezing, deforming, stretching, and then a pleasant feeling came, and Hermione gasped for air.

"Where is this?" Hermione asked, looking at Egg, dizzy.

"The door of the Leaky Cauldron." Egger smiled, "You'll know when you go in." ”

As soon as the two entered the door, Old Tom immediately bowed to Egger and smiled flatteringly: "Ah... Mr. Moritiss, our future Great Wizard, has been seen for a long time. ”

"Good evening, Mr. Tom, please prepare some butterbeer for me, I'll get it later." Egg smiled and nodded, and led Hermione to a broomroom where several barrels were kept.

With a stroke of Egger's wand, a barrel slid over, and Egg stepped on the barrel, his wand tapped on the gap in the wall, the wall slowly deformed, and a lively alley appeared in front of the two.

Hermione looked at everything in front of her in amazement, a few bats flew by in the air from time to time, and passing by the door of the pet store, the owls did not move, their heads turned one hundred and eighty degrees to look at the two of them.

Diagon Alley is very lively at night, with a circus of many magical creatures, and the shops on the roadside are lit up in colorful colors, which looks magical and wonderful against the backdrop of ancient buildings.

A few children in robes hula ran by, chasing a few naughty flying bubbles, each time they caught one, the bubbles would 'pop' and explode a bunch of streamers, and occasionally bring out a few candies.

"I've heard that there's a Muggle chocolate factory in the United States owned by a guy named Willy Wonka, and he can play with candy," Iger laughed.

God knows if there is a Willy Wonka in this world, and it is said that the guy is a magician. ①

"Where are we going now?" Hermione's little face flushed with excitement as she looked at Egger with excitement.

"Gringotts, let's go get some money and buy some things, I can buy the wand for you first." Egg smiled and led Hermione to Gringotts.

Pulling Hermione behind him, Egg whispered, "Follow me closely, these elves are not friendly at all, selfish and greedy..."

Hermione nodded nervously, her little hand firmly tugging at Egg's sleeve.

The key to the vault had been sent to him by Hagrid this morning, and Iger took the key and walked to a counter.

"Egger Morissus."

The demon in front of him glanced at Egger carefully, nodded, and led the two of them to the door of the vault in a small car.

As soon as the door opened, Egg's eyes widened, and Hermione screamed in surprise.

At this time, there was a mountain of gold coins more than half a meter high in front of him, which was worth several thousand Galleons.

"Are you sure you're on the wrong track?" Egg turned to look at the elf beside him.

"If you don't want it, you can give it to us." The goblin next to him laughed.

Iger walked into the storeroom in disbelief, and a note was placed in plain sight.

'Mrs. Morissus would prefer me to give you this money.

I hope you can use it properly.

The rest is what Hagrid redeems for you.

Make it a Halloween gift.

- Albus Dumbledore'

"More than seven thousand Galleons, that's a lot of money." The little goblin behind him narrowed his eyes: "It's really enviable." ”

"Personally, I think there's something more important in this world than money, Mr. Fairy." Egg grabbed a handful of Galleons and stuffed them into Hermione's hand, then filled the bag with another hundred Galleons, and turned back to the cart: "But it does feel good to be rich, doesn't it?" ”

"I'm sorry, Egger, though I hate to say that, but you said you were an orphan?" Hermione looked at Egg in surprise.

Egger smiled: "Then I should put it another way, I am a very valuable orphan." ”

Half an hour later, the Ollivanders wand shop.

Ollivander looked at Egg and laughed, "When I heard that you were living in a Muggle family, I wondered when you would bring another little wizard to me, but you came much sooner than I thought, Mr. Moritiss. ”

"Happy Halloween, Mr. Ollivander." Egger looked at him with a smile: "We had an agreement. ”

"Ahh Of course. Ollivander smiled and nodded, and with a wave of his wand in his hand, a tape measure flew over to measure Hermione's height and arm.

"Try this one." Looking at the data on the notebook, Ollivander took out a magic wand: "The combination of grapevine wood and dragon heartstrings is a bold attempt, how about trying?" ”

Hermione took her wand, and a gentle breeze blew through the old cottage in an instant.

"It turns out that my vision is accurate, although sometimes there are some strange guests, such as Mr. Moritiss—" Ollivander said with a smile as he pointed at Egger.

"I only tried two, too." Iger spread his hands.

"You're the kind of person who fits all wands, but obviously not all wands can match you." Ollivanders' cloudy eyes looked at Egger, "I even have to doubt my common sense for years. ”

After Iger gave the money, he took Hermione out of the shop of the old man, and Ollivander was right, and it was a seven-percent discount.

"She looks so pretty." Hermione couldn't put it down, holding her wand, which was carved with a graceful ivy pattern.

"You look prettier." Egg smiled, and then Hermione's face turned red...

……

"Why do we buy so much beef?" Hermione looked at Egg strangely.

Iger shrunk the beef and wrapped it in a bag and tossed it in, "Buckbeak will like it." ”

"Buckbeak?" Hermione looked at Egg strangely.

"A hippony, winged beast, stupid big guy." Iger nodded.
