MTL - Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard-Chapter 1 magical magic
Chapter 1 Magical Magic
In a three-storey building near the village of Ottery-St. Catchpole.
Eleven-year-old Keljoba was standing at the window, looking at the parchment in his hand seriously.
Chancellor: Albus Dumbledore (Sir Merlin, First Class, Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot, President of the International Federation of Wizards)
Dear Mr. Chopper
We are pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed is a list of required books and items.
The semester starts on September 1st. We will be waiting for a reply from your owl before July 31st.
Sincerely, Vice-Principal (Female) Minerva McGonagall
…
That’s right, it’s the Hogwarts acceptance letter.
Ever since he traveled here eleven years ago, Kyle has been waiting for this day.
As for why he was so sure, it was simple because there were several other special families living not far from next door.
Among them, the ones Kyle is most familiar with are the devilish editor-in-chief Lovegood.
And the Weasley family.
Especially the latter, the extremely weird building and the red hair of the family allowed Kyle to instantly determine the composition of this world.
It is worth mentioning that being able to live here also shows that Kyle in this life also comes from a wizard family.
His father, Chris Chopper, works at the Ministry of Magic, as Deputy Director of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures and Director of the Office of Beasts. And thanks to his ancestral talent for communicating with magical animals, he is also a famous magical zoologist, one of Newt Scamander's only students.
Mother Diana is also in the Ministry of Magic, but in the Department of Mysteries, but what exactly she does, Kyle doesn't know. He also tried to use various methods to circumvent the situation, but all failed. Obviously, his parents' awareness of confidentiality was quite good, and not a single bit of information was revealed.
Family situation... Well, because there are no prominent figures in my ancestors, I can only say that he is ordinary. Compared with those famous surnames, such as Dumbledore, Grindelwald and so on.
But even so, Kyle is already very satisfied. At least his parents are both wizards, so it will definitely be no problem to enter Hogwarts.
Unless he's a squib.
This point was already denied after his first magic riot when he was three years old.
Even though he had known that this day would come, when the owl actually pecked open the window of his room with the envelope, Kyle almost jumped up with excitement.
Hold the parchment like a treasure, never let go of it even when sleeping, and would take a look at it every now and then.
…
“Dear, you’ve been reading that acceptance letter over and over for three days. Can you put it down? I guarantee you that it is absolutely true!”
Chris looked helplessly at his son who was having fun again, and couldn't help but remind him: "Don't forget that we made an appointment with the Weasley family next door to go to Diagon Alley together today. Don't let it take long." waited."
“Okay dad, I’ll come right away.”
Hearing this, Kyle hurriedly put away the Hogwarts admission notice that he had read countless times, stood up in a hurry, and knocked on a wooden stake next to him: "Groot, I'm leaving."
As soon as he finished speaking, a little green guy jumped out and waved at Kyle.
There are magical animals in Kyle's house, but not many. In addition to the Bowtruckle named Groot, there is also a cat named Tom.
Although as the deputy director of the Department for the Management and Control of Magical Creatures, Chris could easily raise a dozen or twenty magical creatures, he did not do so. And even Groot and Tom were left behind because they refused to leave.
It’s not that Chris doesn’t like magical animals, but he thinks that so-called magical animals should not be kept around wizards in the first place.
The ones you keep around you can only be called pets.
From this point of view, this middle-aged gentleman, who has always been gentle to others and is known as a good old man in the Ministry of Magic, has a very firm attitude.
His view was also supported by Newt Scamander.
Newt also believes that magical animals should exist in nature, and this has always been the case.
As for why there are so many magical animals in his magical box, it is purely because of Newt’s physical condition.
Kyle has seen this old man, more than once, so he is sure.
Just like some magical Death student, Newt Scamander also has a similar physique.
Kyle clearly remembers that when he was walking with Newt in the garden when he was five years old, he witnessed a ball escaper diving into Newt's arms.
You must know that ball escapers are natural masters of phantom transformation. Although they are not very smart and do not hide themselves deliberately like other magical animals, they have a strong sense of territory and the ability to perceive danger.
Once they sense that a wizard or other creature that threatens them is approaching, they will run away as soon as possible.
In the description of the ball evader in "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", the first sentence is that it can only be viewed from a distance, but cannot be approached.
However, such a ball-escape bird actually plunged into Newt's arms with perfect accuracy.
Absolutely outrageous. And when he was seven years old, he still went out with Newt and met Salamander.
Eight years old, wounded unicorn.
Ten years old, a fire crab who was almost made into a crucible.
…
Some of these magical animals escaped after being smuggled into the British wizarding world, and some slipped in somehow. They always appear around Newt in various bizarre ways.
This is still the premise that Newt stays at home.
I think back when he carried a box around the world to send magical animals home, the situation was much more serious than it is now.
Every time he sends a magical animal home, there are dozens or twenty new magical animals bumping into him. As time goes by, it’s strange that there aren’t many animals in his box.
…
With such a special talent, it is no wonder that Newt has been blacklisted by almost all the Ministry of Magic.
After all, those magical animals were not very good-tempered before they met Newt, especially the injured ones and those with cubs. They would explode on the spot if something went wrong.
Think about it, you are leisurely drinking afternoon tea on the street, and suddenly a mad manticore, or a poisonous leopard or something jumps out next to you... Tsk, that scene makes you nervous just thinking about it. It can make people break out in a cold sweat.
So, what about Gellert, what about Voldemort, the Dark Lord wants to destroy things by himself? That's it? It's so weak.
Look at Uncle Newt, you don’t need to do anything to disappear anywhere you want. You can just buy a plane ticket and stay there for three to five days, drink coffee and enjoy the scenery, and you don’t even need to touch the cause and effect afterwards.
Or we can say that Grandma Tina is great. She single-handedly sealed Newt by her side. It is no exaggeration to say that the whole world owes her a Merlin First Class Order.
It’s a bitter experience for the British and magical world.
According to incomplete statistics, ever since Newt settled in Dorset, incidents related to magical animals in the Ministry have begun to increase exponentially, and the British wizarding world has inexplicably become the most popular place for smugglers to sell stolen goods.
Fortunately, although incidents, large and small, have continued over the years, they have not caused any serious impact. At most, some unlucky guy has been slightly injured.
As the birthplace of Uncle Newt, there may be passive buffs here.
But Chris is not so lucky. Due to his job, he has to work overtime for several days every once in a while.
But looking at him, Kyle probably enjoyed it.
…
All the way to the door, Kyle discovered that in addition to Chris standing at the door, his mother Diana had also returned from the Ministry of Magic in advance, which was rare, and was standing there looking at him with a smile.
Her long black hair was meticulously styled, and her black robe with white edges looked decent and elegant on her body. When she looked at Kyle, her light blue eyes were filled with tenderness.
Elegant and intellectual.
This is the impression Kyle has always had on Diana.
Subconsciously, Kyle turned to look at Chris...well, he was a bit handsome, and he could vaguely see some of his youthful demeanor, so the two of them matched well together.
The most important thing is that Chris is not bald. Even though he is nearly forty years old, the distance between his hairline and eyebrows is still only about an inch. This is in stark contrast to Mr. Weasley next door.
Of course, with such a strong gene, Kyle's appearance is not much different. Among the people he knows, he is at least ranked first. He has a tendency to bring disaster to the country and the people at a young age.
Of course, this is not important, and Kyle never takes it to heart. He does not rely on his face to make a living.
“Sorry, I’m late.”
Kyle walked between the two of them and said sheepishly.
"If you can keep that notice, it probably won't be too late, and Hogwarts won't leave the UK just because you didn't keep the notice."
Chris looked at Kyle teasingly and told a made-up joke.
Well, let’s call it a joke, at least Chris laughed happily after saying it.
As for Kyle, although he didn’t understand what Chris was laughing at, he still politely raised his lips, thinking it was to show respect for his father.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long.
“Okay, it’s getting late, we’re going to leave.”
Diana smiled slightly, interrupted the awkward interaction between father and son, and took Kyle's hand by the way: "There are a lot of things to buy for admission, we have to get there quickly, and it is not polite to keep the Weasley family waiting for a long time."
After saying that, with a crisp explosion, Kyle disappeared from the place.
Chris saw this and quickly followed him by apparating away.
