Chapter 66: Thoughts on the eve of school opening

In Nottingham Forest, many miles away from Knockturn Alley, a white mist like snow is now filling both sides of a narrow but luxurious path.

This path is winding and winding, but the ground is exquisitely paved with bricks and stones carved with various powerful and mysterious creatures.

Not far away, a huge tower stood tall and majestic. It was a tower that shone with beautiful light. It stood high and radiated brightly, illuminating the front.

There was no sound everywhere, only the invisible cold wind howling, as if there were no signs of life around, only a fat black cat sneaked out of the forest onto the path, stretched and yawned, as if waiting. Who.

At this time, with the sound of bubbles being punctured, three figures huddled together appeared out of thin air on the path.

The fat cat's eyes widened, he raised his round head, turned into a black shadow, and rushed towards the figure in the middle.

So, Ryan, who was transferred through the dimensional wall to the tree-lined path outside Smith Castle, had no time to express his depression or talk to Kate and Penelo, when a heavy fur ball jumped into his arms.

Jerry!

Why are you so fat now? Penello curiously touched the kitten in Ryan's arms.

Jerry twisted around and pointed his butt at Penello, yelling curses.

Is he scolding me? Penello felt angry and amused.

She knew that Jerry was not a simple kitten, just like Dr. Flywheel, the hamster who had been sleeping in Ryan's bedroom all day. But Dr. Hamster Flywheel doesn't care about these jokes.

Penello, Jerry used to be a well-proportioned little girl, and she couldn't bear to hear this. Ryan gently scratched Jerry's chin. She narrowed her eyes comfortably and her tail waggled briskly from side to side.

I said, don’t you want to say something?

I don't exist? Kate puffed up her cheeks.

She took out three wands. In addition to the one she chose, which was sparkling with sparks of thunder and pine wood, she also bought two wands for Ryan and Penello with her money.

Ryan's stick is filled with a black air, with spiral patterns on the handle, and a natural dragon-shaped stick head made of blackthorn wood.

Its name is Dragon Knight? Blackthorn Wood, which goes well with Lane's White Knight and Black Knight.

The head of Penello's staff was inlaid with a large round, strip-shaped yellow crystal stone, and the body of the staff exuded a golden aura that could be seen with the naked eye.

Its name is the Stick of Time? Acacia Wood.

Kate looked at the three pretty wands in depression, not knowing what to say.

Didn't I say I'll pay the bill? Ryan said helplessly after waking up from the joy of petting cats.

He knew these wands all too well.

To be honest, he didn't understand why the wand was like this.

Like Dragon Knight Blackthorn, he didn't mess around like in the dress-up game in his previous life, using a troll's beard as the core of his wand. Instead, he used a dragon's heartstring.

It can't be that all the power of this wand is used for special effects.

Ryan, who was not thinking subconsciously, thought gloomily.

I don’t want it, I have money. Besides, I haven’t given you a gift for a long time. As Kate spoke, she used the thunder feather in her hand to turn around the pine trees and electrify the leaves on the roadside.

Okay, aren't you curious about what Voldemort wrote? You know how mysterious and forbidden knowledge the Department of Mysteries can't help but prevent from revealing this? Penello pretended to be mysterious and said, while gesturing to Ryan with his eyes. It was clear that she wanted Ryan to play along and distract Kate from her wand.

After all, Kate is a Ravenclaw after all, so she should be attracted to it, right?

Kate, however, was not at all curious.

It's just Voldemort. Kate said in frustration.

She was both happy and sad, constantly admiring the ingenious wand in her hand, but she couldn't help but feel heartache.

It's not that she doesn't like knowledge, it's just that the journey to Atlantis and the things that leaked out of Ryan's mouth from time to time have long been a habit for Kate.

As for Penello, to be honest, she spends most of her time during the holidays on trips organized by her parents who love to travel around.

Although she likes to communicate by writing letters, almost one letter every day, but how can she compare with Kate who runs around with Ryan.

In Kate's view, even Voldemort's writings are just some common sayings, and they are still stuck to the ancient, inaccurate and idealistic knowledge of the wizarding world.

You can also imagine how the next days will be spent.

Kate sighed all day long for the gold galleons she had lost. Penello communicated with Ryan all day long to learn about things in the Muggle world, comparing them with everything in Voldemort's books.

Ryan was a little disappointed with Voldemort's book.

The content here did not surprise Ryan, but he was only surprised.

In this book, Voldemort, or to be precise, the youthful version of Tom Riddle, describes from a Muggle perspective the basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation of the Muggle world, the definition of science, the convenience of travel, and the speed of their transportation. There are also major events that have occurred in the Muggle world in this century, such as the moon landing and the atomic bomb explosion, which are naturally among them.

It is hard to believe that this is a book written by an anti-Muggle, wizard-supremacist who has been separated from Muggle knowledge for decades.

Unlike the content taught in Muggle Studies classes, which emphasizes strengths and avoids weaknesses, there is no invisible praise of wizards in his books, as well as the neglect of some things in the Muggle world that should shock wizards.

For example, for the atomic bomb, Tom's book will describe its equivalent, the temperature at the core, and the radiation in detail.

Unlike the Muggle Studies class, which said that it was a powerful bomb and that dozens of wizards with good Transfiguration skills could intercept it.

For the transportation in the Muggle world, Tom will also compare the speed of the fastest Nimbus 2001 in detail, and the misunderstanding of the wizarding world about Muggle transportation.

That is, you can ride a broom close to a fighter without being blown away by the air pressure caused by its speed, or even die.

These things are only very advanced for the content of the Muggle Studies class, and his book only breaks the magic world's invisible education of wizards.

Let wizards have a clearer understanding of Muggle society.

But these are not important to Ryan, and he is only surprised because it is Tom Riddle who wrote this book.

Now, Ryan is just curious about one thing, how he will talk about the contents of these books.

After all, Tom Riddle is in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and he will compare the dangerous side of the props in the Muggle world to dark magic?

Or is he just teaching Muggle Studies, and taking the title of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor just because of the curse?

Why exactly?

Ryan held back his thoughts.

Now he can clearly predict the future through thinking.

Keeping fresh is what Ryan should do most at this moment.

Besides, school is about to start.
