HP calls me Queen

Although Delphine is going to the United States to watch the game.But this holiday America is not her first stop!Before flying across the ocean, she was going to another place.Northwest corner of Europe - Greece.

If someone asks which country is the strongest in the world of ordinary people in this era, the answer is undoubtedly the United States.Russia is still unable to recover in the throes of federal division. Although the new red regime is already thriving, it will take time and effort to catch up with the United States.As for other countries, it is basically the role of standing in line and waving the flag.The so-called traditional powers in Europe even had to form an alliance to keep warm.

But when it comes to the world of magicians, the status of the United States is a bit embarrassing. Except for the decent number of magicians, other aspects can only be regarded as mediocre.And to say that the magic civilization is the most prosperous, aside from China, which is unique and has its own magic system, among the other countries that share the current magic wand system, the most eye-catching ones are Egypt and Greece.

Egypt, Greece, China, and Mexico are generally considered to be the birthplaces of the four major magical civilizations.

Among them, the magical civilization of Mexico has been annihilated in the dust of history with the colonization of the Americans and a series of historical reasons.

China's magic civilization has always followed its own unique route. Although it does not refuse to communicate with the outside world, it has always been a self-contained system. Their system has influenced the magic systems of surrounding countries such as Japan, Mongolia, and Thailand to a certain extent.In recent decades, with the activeness of the Western magic world, some countries such as Thailand and Japan have also begun to accept the Western magic system, but it is still not the mainstream in China.

Therefore, in today's Western magic system, the oldest and most inherited ones are Egypt and Greece.In contrast, the rising stars of Britain, France, and Germany are not inferior in the number and quality of the new generation of magicians because of the establishment of the three major magic schools, but their background is still a little bit worse.

Egypt is different from Greece and today's Britain and France. Although Britain and France's attitude towards black magic can only be said to be ambiguous, they still resist it verbally at least.This can be seen from the fact that the magic schools in the two countries do not teach black magic but defense against the dark arts.

But in Egypt and Greece, black magic was studied openly by all wizards.Especially in Egypt, not only the study of black magic, but also the older and more evil curse witchcraft.

Delphine has always yearned for Egypt, a country with the oldest and best-preserved witchcraft system, but she dare not set foot on it easily.No way, there are too many magical creatures and evil wizards there.Delphine's level can still be seen in the relatively peaceful environment of the UK, but when she gets there, she can't say when she will fall into someone's way.Delphine didn't want to be left alive like Professor Lockhart.

If you dare not go to Egypt and are curious about the world where black magic prevails, then the best place to visit is Greece.

Although Greece is also a country where black magic is prevalent, it is after all in a more 'civilized' Europe.After all, the local black wizards are more ethical than those from Egypt.At least they won't be doing magic experiments with people.

Just as there is a Diagon Alley in England dedicated to shopping for wizards, France has Ambergris Street.There is also a commercial district in Greece, and it is a large-scale wizarding commercial district that is well-known throughout Europe-Aegean Sea Avenue.

The Aegean Avenue in Greece is much larger than Diagon Alley in England or Ambergris Street in France!

Not narrower than Diagon Alley, the streets of Aegean Avenue are enough for four cars or carriages to drive side by side.The floor was paved with slabs of stone, evidently strengthened and smoothed with magic.Daphne was walking on the side of the street and saw several carriages running past without any bumps.

There is such a thing as a carriage!Delphine was secretly fresh.But think about it, the entire magic world doesn't seem to use things from the ordinary people's world very much.So there must be no cars.It seems that it is not unacceptable to use a carriage for transportation.After all, apparition is not something that all magicians can use casually, and flying broomsticks are also not so easy to ride.

There are still horse-drawn carriages in British cities, but there are no magic streets, because the roads are too narrow.

Most of the shops on both sides of the street are elegantly decorated.It coincides with the holiday, and the streets are full of wizards, most of whom are young wizards.However, unlike in England, wizards here don't wear robes very much.Although most of their clothes are far from normal, they are still better than Diagon Alley in long robes and pointed hats.

The streets are not only wide but also long enough.It is a large commercial district comparable in size to the later Chinese dynasties.

Delphine felt her eyes were dazzled after walking around here for a while.Eyes are full of new gadgets that have never been seen before or rare gadgets that have always been known but have not been available.For example, the horn of a unicorn, here refers to the horn of an adult unicorn like Delphine's, not the horn that is replaced during growth.But this game is too expensive to play, even if Daphne has a lot of money, seeing the string of zeros also dissuaded her desire to buy.Of course, the main reason for this is that Daphne can't use it, or doesn't know how to use it.Just the one at hand, I haven't studied how to use it yet.

To make matters worse, Delphine doesn't speak Greek.Most of the wizards here only speak Greek, and Delphine can only rely on Jingjing to help translate.Jingjing, an elf who has served three generations of the Lestrange family, knows most of the languages ​​in Europe.But no matter which shop it was, seeing that Delphine needed the help of a house elf to translate, they all showed disdain.Delphine couldn't do anything about it.

After shopping for a long time, Daphne bought a lot of materials.Most of them are potion materials that are relatively rare in the UK, such as bits and pieces from some advanced magical creatures.Britain is an island country, and there are very few other species except birds and reptiles.There are even some larger advanced magical creatures.The imbalance between supply and demand naturally leads to high prices, and there are few potion masters in the UK, so there may be some reasons for this.

Naturally, Greece does not have such a problem, and the price is naturally slightly lower.

After wandering around all morning, Delphine found a restaurant for lunch.There are wizard restaurants on Aegean Avenue, and there are quite a few of them.But the taste can only be said to be unsatisfactory.It is similar to the earliest Hogwarts, but it is much worse than the system after being influenced by Delphine and others to reform the system.However, it is still better than traditional British food.

Daphne, who was quite satisfied with the meal, took a short rest and got up.Take a map from the pouch.

The map is very clear, but the Aegean Avenue is really not small, and Delphine searched for a while before finding a small alley marked on the map - Black Water Street!

The status of Blackwater Street in the magic world of Greece is equivalent to the night alley in England.But the scale is bigger, and there are not so many messy taboos.Anyway, when Daphne walked in, she saw many young wizards.

Daphne often goes to Night Walking Alley, but she is not very interested in Blackwater Street.Follow the map and walk towards the main goal.

Heishui Street is far less magnificent than Aegean Avenue.Let Daphne find a bit of the feeling of the magician's world.There are old wooden buildings on both sides of the street.The paint color of the inscriptions on many signboards has peeled off.

Although it was much smaller than the Aegean Avenue, Daphne still searched for a while before she settled on a very inconspicuous small shop.

There is no signboard on the storefront, and the crimson curtains drawn inside the huge window make it impossible to see anything.I don't know why there is still a window.A skull pendant with bat wings hangs under the rain in front of the door, which looks quite evil.

Delphine stepped forward. There were five steps in front of the door, which were made of wood.It creaked when it went up, and the sound made Delphine really frown.

Walking to the door, just about to knock on the door, the same wooden door opened by itself.Well, it seems that the creaking steps are still useful, can be used as a doorbell, huh?Delphine thought sarcastically. 
The door opened, and Delphine looked inside, and found that there was still a thick red curtain.Curling her lips, she said to Jingjing who was closely following her with a vigilant expression: "Don't move around without my order for a while. It may be dark inside, but don't use any lighting magic."

"Yes miss, Jingjing understands!" Jingjing hurriedly nodded her head and agreed.

Delphine opened the curtain and walked into the room with Jingjing.

The room was as dark as Delphine had expected.It took Delphine a moment to let her eyes adjust to the darkness.

After all, a glimmer of light came through the curtains and curtains at the back, allowing Delphine to barely see some outlines in the room.It is faintly visible that there is a large table in the room, and a person is sitting behind it.Whether a person is a man or a woman, old or young, it is impossible to see clearly, only a pair of eyes, faintly emitting a red light in the darkness.

Delphine knew she was in the right place.Step forward gently: "British Lestrange family, Delphine Lestrange!"

"I said how can a little kid dare to enter my shop, and it seems that he still knows the rules." A slightly tired voice sounded from behind the case, speaking the same English, but with a strange emphasis: "So it was you .”

As he spoke, the man snapped his fingers lightly.A fire suddenly lit up beside the wall.It turned out that there was a row of candlesticks by the wall. The candlesticks were made of copper and looked very old, with emerald green rust spots on them.The light from the candlelight shone on it, and the green light was very eerie.But compared to other decorations in the room, candlesticks are the most harmless!

Next to the door of the room, there was a large leather sofa, on which was crawling a two-meter-long monster that looked like a dog.The monster was covered in scales and had a row of bone spurs on its back.The limbs and head are somewhat like a dog, but the tail is a crocodile tail.There was a pair of threaded curved horns on the dog's head, and four sharp fangs protruded from the mouth and grew upwards, making the ugly head even more ferocious.

It turned out to be a Macedonian crocodile tail.This is a magical creature that is rarely seen today.It was domesticated by Macedonian magicians in the Middle Ages as a war pet for catching small beasts.This thing is amazingly powerful, and its scales are quite tough, amphibious and quite agile, and it has a good physique that can resist beatings.The point is, its teeth are also highly poisonous.However, because the meat of this thing is very delicious, the scales also have many functions.So it was once killed to the brink of extinction.Delphine had only seen it in books.

In addition to the hideous Macedonian crocodile-tailed fangs, on the other hand, there was a large cabinet containing a lot of containers containing skeletons, giant centipedes, and various disgusting monsters.Even if Daphne's soul is a rough man, she also felt disgusted when she saw it.Especially in the dim candlelight, it is extremely gloomy.

However, in such a hideous room, its owner is out of tune with it.
