After some persuasion from Kyle and a handful of fresh herbs, Fawkes gradually calmed down.

While it turned its grief and anger into appetite and concentrated on eating herbs, Kyle couldn't help but reach out and rub the feathers on its neck.

This is the first time Kyle has played a phoenix in earnest...... How to put it, the feathers are a little stiff, not as fluffy and soft as owls, but they feel good in the hand.

Delicate and smooth, with a hint of warmth, it feels like a golden galleon that has just been taken out of the vault.

After eating the herbs, Fawkes spread his wings and flew in the direction of the window fly.

Kyle thought it was going back.

But he didn't expect Fawkes to just fly to the windowsill and stop, and then landed next to Laton, and as soon as his wings were retracted, he began to sleep, looking full and sleepy.

Ratton, who had been sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened, tilted his head to look at the uninvited guest, and the feathers on his neck stood up at once.

It lifted its paw and moved to the side without saying a word, making more room for Fawkes.

Kyle gave Raton a blank look, then pouted disdainfully.

This stupid bird, when he is usually in a bad mood, other owls have to catch up with him and beat people up even if they just look at it.

Why are you so cowardly now!

Seems to understand Kyle's eyes...... Raton silently turned his head and chose to ignore it.

It also wants to be tough, but people are dyed with red hair, so it's not easy to mess with at first glance...... More is better than less, endure it.

The two birds stood on the windowsill one on the left and one on the right, unexpectedly harmonious.

Kyle sat down at the table, his eyes vaguely glancing at the box not far away.

Looking at Fox's appearance, it is estimated that he is not going to go back in a short time...... With it by his side, he definitely can't find Riddle to make up for it.

Although the phoenix may not be able to recognize the Horcrux, but what if.

And if it knew, it was as much as Dumbledore knew.

Kyle said he was going to give the journal to Dumbledore, but he had to wait until it was useless, at least not yet.

If you don't tutor, you don't seem to have much to do.

Phoenix doesn't like crowded places, and will definitely not go out to play Quidditch with him, but he can leave it alone at home, and Kyle is not at ease.

You can't just look at the magic formula for a day in your room.

Now that his research on the magic script has passed the initial stage, without Riddle's help, the efficiency of reading books on his own is too low, and it is a bit of a waste of time.

Just as he was thinking about it, Kyle stumbled upon a nearby chest.

After thinking for a moment, he walked to the windowsill.

"Fawkes, how about I take you out for a walk."

Fawkes opened his eyes.

Newt Scalmande...... I guess you know where he lives. Kyle asked.

Fawkes nodded.

Basically, Dumbledore knew everything, or it wouldn't have been sent to deliver a message to Nicolame before.

Newt's place of residence is no exception.

"That's good." Kyle said, "How about you send me over." ”

Fox looked Kyle up and down, hesitant.

Kyle thought it didn't want to go, and quickly held out two fingers.

"Two cloak grasses, plus a bubble pod."

Fawkes didn't hesitate this time, and without saying a word, flew onto Kyle's shoulder, and then let out a chirp of anticipation.

"Wait a minute."

Kyle hurriedly picked up the box and stuffed the luggage he had prepared in advance into it along with the box, "Okay, now it's fine......

Before he could finish speaking, Kyle disappeared into the room with a flash of flame-like light.

On the windowsill, Raton, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up again, and this time it was even more excessive, and an inexplicable wave of air blew it out of the window directly.

And it's quite strong, as if someone kicked it.

Raton flapped several laps in the air before finally getting back into the air before he hit the ground.

No...... It's over, isn't it?

The irritated Ratton flapped his wings back to the windowsill, and was about to find his master to reason with him, when he suddenly found ...... There was no one in the room.

In addition, not only Kyle, but even the "red hair" who just came is gone.

Only the blown desks, chairs, bookshelves, and parchment all over the floor.

Raton flew around the room, and when he was sure that no one was there, he returned to the windowsill, swept his wings over where "Red Fur" had been, shrunk his neck, and went back to sleep.

……

On the other side, the moment he was taken away by Fawkes, Kyle was squeezed strongly from all directions, and he couldn't breathe at all.

It was as if he had been forcibly formed into a ball...... And it was a Bludger, and then it was beaten with a stick all day by those rude batsmen.

Then, for some reason, it took for his consciousness to return to his body.

Kyle's red eyes widened, and he wanted to vomit, but his stomach was pinched by someone, and he couldn't vomit at all, so he could only gulp in the earthy air of the forest.

"Take it easy."

At this moment, a gentle voice came from the side.

It was Newt, who gave Kyle an unnamed fruit and motioned for him to eat it.

Kyle subconsciously took it and stuffed it into his mouth.

The fruit was sour and astringent, like taking a bite of an unripe tomato.

But somehow, Kyle feels a lot more comfortable.

"What is this ......?"

"The fruit of a sour green pod." Newt said with a smile: "It's also the favorite thing to eat in the ball bird, how do you feel?" ”

"Much better."

Kyle rubbed his ears and said, "I feel like I've apparitioned a hundred times in a row. ”

"That's how Phoenix travels, it's simple and crude, and it's good that you're still standing."

Newt gave Kyle another fruit, but Kyle didn't eat it, just put it under his nose and sniffed it.

He finally understood now that Fawkes had hesitated not because he didn't want to come here, but because he was worried about whether he would be able to adapt to such an exciting way of traveling.

It's a pity that he understood it too late, and stupidly put in two cloak grass and a bubble pod......

"This kind of travel is probably something that only Professor Dumbledore can adapt to." Kyle muttered quietly.

"Actually......" Newt glanced at Kyle with a grin, "Dumbledore often travels to different places for meetings, but he usually opts for Apparition or Portkey.

It is only in a particularly urgent situation that the power of the phoenix will be used. ”

Kyle rubbed his ears again, he didn't know what to say for a while, and even Dumbledore couldn't get used to it......

"But you're really surprising to me."

Newt laughed and led Kyle into the house, "Fawkes almost never travels with anyone other than Dumbledore. ”
