Master Trainer from Hogwarts

Chapter 36 The Origin of Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley

After appeasing the frightened Niu Niu, Allen turned and walked towards the shabby house.

At this time, the space next to the secret cabin fluctuated like a layer of ripples, and a huge emerald green head poked out. It looked in the direction Allen left with shock and doubt.

Because a new spell was researched today, Allen, who was a little exhausted, just read the book for a while and went to bed early.

After waking up the next day, looking at the system store, a new [Mysterious Mission Letter] was refreshed.

Allen happened to have 110 gold coins, so he bought this [Mystery Mission Letter] and a fighting skill [Hand Knife].

Opening the [Mysterious Mission Letter], a piece of information appeared in my mind.

Mission description: A noble mummy came across the ocean, but behind it is not just a big smuggling case. The ancient undead was disturbed and wanted to return from the underworld. The new demon hunter is looking for it everywhere. Please help this new demon hunter complete her demon hunting trial. Maybe you will find some clues in Knockdown Alley.

Mission Difficulty: D
Witcher? !

Allen was surprised and delighted. This was the second time he saw this word. Through reading wizard books during this period, he learned more about witchers.

This is a group of extraordinary mercenaries who use potions to change their bodies and become inhuman.

Although their name is 'monster hunting', they are actually hunting dangerous creatures that endanger the world inhabited by ordinary people.

Of course, those dark wizards who liked blood sacrifices in the Middle Ages also belonged to the category of witch hunting, but since modern times, especially in England, the conflict between wizards and demon hunters has not been as deep as before.

Of course, witchers and wizards still have deep prejudices. After all, noble spellcasters were rubbed against the ground by lowly melee combat for a while. No one would like such a history.

That's why wizards often call demon hunters 'mudlegs', which sounds a little better than 'mudblood'.

But it is indeed useful news.

After washing up, brothers George and Fred immediately entangled Allen. Although they didn't know why Allen started acting today, the Gryffindor souls in their bodies were already burning.

In the secret hut, Allen asked, "How much do you know about witchers?"

"Witcher?" George's voice raised slightly, with some fearful excitement, "You said those witchers who would catch disobedient little wizards at night?"

Allen couldn't help covering his face. It seems that there is no shortage of fairy tales in the wizarding world to scare children. "I mean, if we meet demon hunters, is there a chance to cooperate with them?"

"Working with a witcher? That's really cool." Fred sighed, then shook his head, "I don't know, but Bill is at home today, so I can ask for you."

Bill is the eldest son of the Weasley family. He has graduated this year and is considered an adult wizard.

And he is quite excellent, not only the Gryffindor prefect, but also the student council president, which is considered an enhanced version of Percy. From this point of view, the Weasley family's education is still very good.

Excellence here doesn't just refer to the cultivation of moral character. You must know that Hogwarts is a school of magic after all.

If you want to become the chairman of the student union, if you don't have outstanding magical power, no matter how good your popularity is, it is absolutely impossible.

Therefore, the magic inheritance of the Weasley family is much better than expected. No wonder it is a pure-blood family that won the 'Battle of Peace'.

Allen hesitated for a while, "By the way, I would like to ask about Knockturn Alley, but don't show your feet, or we will definitely be grounded."

George patted his chest and assured, "Bill is not Percy's kind of snitch."

After a while, Fred found the eldest brother of the Weasley family, because he had known him during the meal before, so Bill was not surprised that his mother, a young apprentice, was in the secret cabin.

You must know that before Hogwarts, the modern wizarding academy, was established, the way wizards taught was still a master-apprentice system.

Even apprentices are sometimes more trusted by wizards than blood relatives.

"Why did you ask Knockturn Alley?" Bill looked at the three of them suspiciously, his brown eyes fell on George. The twins have always been eccentric, but he has loved his younger brothers since childhood.

"I want to take a look." George said directly, "Didn't you brag about your sneaking into Knockturn Alley before?"

Bill blushed, and like most proud children, they also wanted to do things that their parents forbade.

And Bill is not an ordinary kid, his magical power is transcendent, and he has obtained 12 certificates in the OWLs exam.

You must know that even a top student like Hermione has not obtained so many certificates, and it can be seen from the side how strong Bill is.

So he also went to explore the 'forbidden place' Knockturn Alley back then.

Bill pinched his earlobe and thought about it, like children, the more they are banned for no reason, the more curious they will be aroused.

He couldn't stop the twins all the time, so he might as well explain all the dangers and taboos of Knockturn Alley.

"In fact, there is nothing in Knockturn Alley. It is similar to Diagon Alley, except that it sells more things related to black magic. When I was a child, I warned you not to go to Knockturn Alley. The main reason is that Knockturn Alley is not completely owned by wizards."

Not entirely owned by the wizard, Allen was a little curious.

"Why? Isn't Knockturn Alley next to Diagon Alley?" George asked.

"The intelligent creatures that can do magic in this world are not just us wizards." Bill reminded, "Vampires, werewolves, big goblins, elves..."

"Diagon Alley and Knockturn Alley existed before the modern wizarding union established the Ministry of Magic in each country. Ollivander's wand shop has a longer history than the Ministry of Magic."

"At that time, Britain was still a remote mountain, far away from the European continent, but because of its remoteness, in the Middle Ages, when we were persecuted by the church, a prosperous wizarding civilization was established here, and Diagon Alley became famous far and wide."

Bill easily revealed the attributes of a schoolmaster, and he knew this history like the back of his hand.

"As mentioned before, we wizards are not the only ones who know magic. Those magic races were persecuted far more than us in the Middle Ages."

"So they chose to team up with the wizard?"

Allen understood what Bill meant, and he followed along.

"But our wizards have stronger power than these magical races. Even wizards looked down on magical races other than wizards before modern times. That's why these races established Knockturn Alley next to Diagon Alley. On the one hand, they hugged the wizards to keep warm, and on the other hand, they were despised by the wizards."
