Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle

The holidays didn't seem too interesting, except of course for Harry, who even went out for a walk with Shooting Star when he had nothing to do.

Mu En is thinking about the Defense Against the Dark Arts teaching plan for the next semester.

There is no doubt that Defense Against the Dark Arts is a subject that is more practical than theoretical. And due to past historical reasons, this course... can be said to have made no progress in the past two years.

The quality of students varies greatly, and children who are willing to study on their own have higher theoretical scores only. Most children, without the correct guidance of teachers, may not even read the book very much.

It doesn't help that I occasionally meet a reliable teacher in a year or two.

Professor McGonagall is now urging Mu En to send her the new list of teaching books as soon as possible.

On the first floor of Moonlight Castle, Lucifer added firewood for himself. He liked the oily pine wood very much, which would make a crackling sound when burned.

Mu En put down his quill, and the parchment floating in front of him fell to the table beside him.

A letter was stuffed through the gap in the door. Mu En glanced at it and then closed her eyes.

Outside No. 13 Privet Drive, morning glories cling to the high wall beside the door, stretching to their heart's content. A breeze blows, and a purple-white inflorescence suddenly blooms.

Among the inflorescences, an eye pupil is exposed. Soon, it caught its target.

A barn owl takes flight.

Inside the room, Mu En raised his hand slightly, and the letter flew to his hand from the entrance.

"Borgin Burke?"

Looking at the black handwriting on the envelope, he was a little surprised. Since Dumbledore came last year, he has lifted some of the formations that hide the address, allowing people and owls to send and receive letters.

But I didn't expect to receive Bo Jin's letter today.

Open the envelope and take out the letter. After a moment, he took a deep breath, patted his knees and stood up.

"What happened?" Lucifer asked curiously.

Mu En raised a smile on her lips and said with great interest: "Bo Jin encountered a very strange place, so he wrote to me asking if I was interested."

Lucifer retreated into the firewood and closed his eyes lazily: "It's boring."

Ten minutes later, Harry stood beside Moon with a confused look on his face.

"Then let's set off, Lucifer remember to look after home." After saying that, Moon put her hand on Harry's shoulder, and the two of them suddenly teleported to the patio of the Leaky Cauldron.

However, the two did not enter Diagon Alley. Instead, they turned around and entered the bar, and then got into the fireplace of the bar.

Moon grabbed a handful of Floo powder and looked at Harry: "Listen carefully, don't pronounce it wrong."

After that, he threw the Floo powder at his feet.

"St. Galway Valley!"

With a bang, green flames rose, and Mu En's figure disappeared.

In the mountains of Somerset, in an isolated village, green flames suddenly exploded in the tavern.

Mu En quickly walked out of the fireplace and cast a cleaning spell on himself first, sweeping away the soot from his body.

Not long after, there was another bang behind him, and Harry walked out of it coughing, obviously he was also choked.

He took out his wand, to be precise... it was a branch randomly broken on the road, and he quickly cast a cleaning spell on himself.

"Uncle Mu En, where are you?"

Moon looked around the tavern and explained at the same time: "St. Galway Valley is a small ancient village in Somerset County. Like Loland Village, ordinary people and wizards live together here."

Pedestrians saw the two coming, looked at them slightly, and then turned their heads away, each busy with their own things.

But in the corner of the tavern, a slightly stooped figure stood out.

"Captain, we are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time." Bo Jin and Moon greeted each other, and then looked at Harry.

Harry pulled up his hat so that the brim concealed the scar.

"Would you like a drink?" Borgin asked.

Mu En shook his head. It was a rare trip out so he didn't have to waste time on drinking.

"Let's go directly!"

Bo Jin nodded: "Okay, come with me, I believe you will be interested."

The three of them walked out of the tavern and, led by Bo Jin, walked out of the village.

"After you sent the letter, you have been waiting here in the tavern?" Mu En looked at him.

"No, but most of the time. Except for checking every day to see if it has disappeared." After finishing speaking, Borgin asked curiously: "I heard that you appeared at the Ministry of Magic a few days ago."

Mu En walked into the Ministry of Magic openly, and many people saw it with their own eyes.

Although this kind of thing has not yet appeared in the newspapers. But its special appearance and the fact that it seemed to come from Hogwarts made this matter a topic of conversation in the tavern for many people.

Mu En nodded: "It's just a little trouble."

It's just a small trouble... Borgin was a little embarrassed. If he was just dealing with the Ministry of Magic's investigation or arrest, then it was really just a small trouble.

But if they were all shackled and sent to the Ministry of Magic... it would still be a small problem...

"What about the incident where the deputy minister of the Ministry of Magic was cursed?" Borgin asked uncertainly.

"It seems that you are very well-informed." Mu En glanced at him: "What is the Ministry of Magic's explanation for this?"

Borgin already knew the answer, and then shook his head repeatedly: "I don't know either. I just heard that Scrimgeour is now targeting a group of ancient wizard families. He has launched an unprecedented search."

Immediately afterwards, he quickly changed the topic: "In the past two months, a lot of people wanted to contact me to sell the dark magic items hidden in my home.

But since I wasn't there, I don't know where they ended up. Anyway, it is a fact that there are a lot more dark magic items on the market these days.

I heard that guy Mundungs ​​also wanted to take the opportunity to get involved and resell dark magic items. He also borrowed a lot of money for start-up capital, but ended up breaking his hand on the first item he received. Got it! "

"Mundungus..."

Mu En immediately thought of that timid guy who loved to make small moves.

Regarding what happened to him, Mu En could only say... he deserved it.

More than twenty minutes later, as several people moved forward, they arrived at a dark forest.

Fog began to appear around them, the visible field of vision gradually decreased, and the surrounding humidity began to increase.

"Uncle Moon, where are we going?" Harry couldn't restrain his curiosity.

"I don't know either, but...Bogin suspects it's Avalon."

"Avalon?!" Harry was suddenly startled, and all kinds of knowledge he had seen in his mind continued to flow.

Avalon is the name of the Elysium in Welsh mythology.

It is also known as the "Blessed Island" or "God's Blessed Island". Legend has it that it is the afterlife and the place after death, a mysterious paradise in the other world, guarded by nine fairies who are good at magic.

"Does Avalon really exist?" Harry was shocked.

"No one knows, that's why we decided to go take a look." Moon smiled, not as surprised as Harry.

He was more curious about this.

"I'm just guessing that Avalon's descriptions in history are too rare. But it did exist in the past." Bo Jin prepared the ground for himself in advance, so that if it wasn't Avalon, he wouldn't be angry with him.

"It appeared suddenly, as did the surrounding fog. If you rush in, you will be sent back soon." Bo Jin explained, taking out a piece of gravel from his pocket.

Green moss and some broken vines cling to the rocks.

"This was taken from a Green Knight I met when I first went in."

With that said, Borgin drew his wand and pointed it at the stone.

"Trace search——"

The next moment, the stone floated slowly and flew straight to the left...

He smiled awkwardly: "It's really easy to get confused, right?"

Mu En felt the fog that could block perception and nodded: "Indeed."

This place is indeed not normal.

After walking for a long time following the floating stones in front of them, they soon felt a cool breeze.

However, at this time, black shadows stood in front of them, and the fog gradually dissipated, and stone statues of knights appeared one by one. They were covered with a lot of moss, making them appear green.

"Is this the legendary Green Knight who guards Avalon for the nine fairies of the lake?"

"That's right." Bo Jin nodded, stood up, and waved the wand in his hand. But they could only knock these stone statues away.

They have protective magic on them, and even if they are broken, they will recover quickly.

With that said, Borgin put the stone taken from the Green Knight in front of him into his pocket again. Then quickly knock away or restrain an entire group of knights.

Bo Jin was indeed strong enough, and he could cast many high-intensity spells at his fingertips, and in just a moment, he was swept away.

They continued to move forward, and soon they felt the breeze.

A lake as calm as a mirror, and a boat drifting on the shore.

Even with the heavy fog, they could still see the huge black shadow in the lake.

Harry looked a little excited. So far, it seems that this place is exactly the same as the description in the legend.

The three of them boarded the boat. Harry looked at Borgin in confusion: "Sir, do these Green Knights suddenly appear on the lake?"

Bo Jin nodded and showed a kind smile that was permeating: "Yes, the area shrouded in fog suddenly appeared here."

Just as he was talking, the boat seemed to sense that everyone had boarded, and started moving on its own, heading towards the lake very smoothly.

Harry's eyes kept scanning the lake, as if he was looking forward to it. He wanted to see if there was any so-called fairy in the lake.

Mu En stood at the front of the boat and looked toward the center of the lake.

He raised his hand slightly, and an invisible ripple spread forward, but it was like a mud cow entering the sea, without any feedback.

The further you go, the fog around you becomes lighter and lighter.

But at the same time, the sky gradually became darker. When the fog cleared, what appeared in front of the three people was a bright starry sky.

And below, the lake is as dark as ink, with the breeze and moonlight falling on it, making the waves sparkle. Not inferior to heaven in any way.

Mu En looked up and looked ahead, only to see countless white ruins on the island in the middle of the lake. Judging from the style, it was obvious that it no longer belonged to this era.

And what they could see here was just the tip of the iceberg facing the island in the middle of the lake.

After a while, their boat was about to dock, and on the edge of the island, there were countless other boats as dark as ink.

There were only white bones left in the boat, but every corpse was just lying peacefully in the boat.

Harry immediately thought of the story about King Arthur. Legend has it that King Arthur was betrayed by Mordred and was seriously injured during the Battle of the Sword Fence.

When he was dying, he was sent to the island of Avalon to recover.

Of course, there is also a theory that King Arthur is dead and only his body was sent to it.

Just as he was thinking about it, Harry heard Moon speak slowly: "It seems that this is really the so-called afterlife and the place after death."

He looked at Bo Jin: "Have you ever gone in?"

Borgin shook his head: "Honestly, if I were in the previous state of the living dead, I might have gone in, but not now.

I can feel the air of death that blocks out the sky and the sun. I'm afraid that as soon as I set foot on the land here, I might die on the spot. Just like them. "

As he spoke, Bojin pointed to the dead bones on the shore ahead.

Harry's heart skipped a beat and he looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Mu En flipped her wrist, and an empty medicine bottle appeared in her hand. The transformation spell was applied to it, and soon the medicine bottle turned into a white-haired mouse.

With a wave of his hand, he threw it on the shore.

Soon, the mouse turned over and crawled in panic, but soon, its speed slowed down, its entire body became thinner, and the hair on its body began to fall off quickly, and then turned into powder.

After a while, the mouse seemed to have reached the end of its life, fell to the ground helplessly, and then transformed into an empty medicine bottle.

The time until the mouse died was only a few breaths away from being thrown to the shore.

"The simple flow of time in an individual body..." After Mu En thought for a moment, he tiptoed and lightly jumped onto it.

The next moment, an invisible force began to penetrate his body. His skin began to age rapidly, his face became old, his teeth fell out, and his body became stooped.

It seems that in just a moment, it seems that a hundred years have passed, and the whole person has become old.

A huge wand appeared in his hand, Mu En recited a spell in a low voice, and a bright light flashed from the tip of the wand.

Then, he pointed the tip of the staff sharply at himself, and a breath of life entered, flowing through his old body. Soon, the face became full again, and the back straightened up again.

Time seemed to be running backwards for him.

After a while, he was like normal again.

However, before the two people on board could breathe a sigh of relief, the entire Avalon suddenly began to shake, as if Mu En's act of resistance had triggered the rules here.

Suddenly, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. Under the lake, a group of ugly mermaids suddenly surfaced and began to attack the two people on the boat.

Borgin's face suddenly filled with anger. He was annoyed when he saw the fish-men, not to mention that the child following the captain was still with him, so he couldn't afford to lose anything. He raised his wand and immediately cast a protective spell on the entire boat, and then began to slaughter these fishmen.

Mu En looked at the entire Avalon. At the highest point of the island in the middle of the lake, there was a palace-like mountain.

On the mountain, a huge oak tree stands tall.

At this time, on the island in the center of the trembling lake, he and the oak tree were the only ones standing, looking at each other from a distance.

The next moment, everyone's eyes were distorted. After a space shuttle like a phantom, several people appeared in a quiet and dark forest.

"This is..." Harry immediately found Mu En's figure.

"It escaped." Mu En looked calm and just shook his head regretfully.
