Hogwarts in a parallel world

Chapter 71 An Unquiet Holiday

After Harry woke up with a fright, he felt that his heart was about to beat out of his chest. The dream was different from ordinary nightmares.It felt very real, as if it was happening right next to him - and from his perspective, he was watching the poor wizard being attacked by a man with a wolf face.

What confused him the most was where the strong smell of blood came from.Harry had had nightmares before, but never before had it felt so real to him like today's nightmare.

After drinking some water, Harry calmed down, and then he found that he was not sleepy at all.As soon as he closed his eyes, the sound of cracking bones and the strong smell of blood would sweep over him.

Then Harry reluctantly fell asleep again and had a lot of inexplicable and weird dreams. He first dreamed of Hermione fighting the Golden Snitch with a baseball bat, and then dreamed that Winters turned into a nine-headed bird. . . .Ron and Aurora actually played chess on broomsticks.When he woke up the next morning, there were dark circles under both eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" Harry's godmother looked at her godson with concern.

"I had a nightmare... The key is that this nightmare is very real." After Harry told him in detail what happened last night, Silis just shook her head lightly.

"A few weeks ago, you were first transported to the development area of ​​Shadow Island by the Metz Vortex, and then you encountered the Lord of Souls head-on. It is normal for you to have these reactions, so I have always suggested that you go to Maghull Hospital. , but you just don’t listen,” the godmother said angrily.

"But isn't Winters okay?" Harry didn't think yesterday's nightmare had anything to do with that trip.

"He is him, and you are you. Besides, have you forgotten that he almost died, and if that girl named Elena wasn't watching him, no one can tell what kind of accident would have happened to Winters?" Celis said seriously.

Harry's godmother's words reassured Harry a lot, but he still felt something was strange.This strange feeling made him feel vaguely uneasy.

At 6:30 in the morning in Colindun Town, the temperature has not reached the level of sweating.Winters and Aurora ran out early, and they wanted to fish out the 1-meter-long black fish that Elsa talked about with Jim and the others while it was still cool.Of course, the premise is not to use magic.

After all the tools were prepared, they got on a small boat, rowed to the center of the river, and started fishing with confidence.But dense mosquitoes and rapidly rising temperatures extinguished their hopes at an extremely fast pace.

"Why is it so hot this year?" Winters had to use a wand to drive away the mosquitoes, but it didn't take long for the mosquitoes to come back.

"Do you still remember the solar blizzard in January this year?" Jim slapped a mosquito that was sucking his blood to death.

"How could we forget? It's the first time I've seen that kind of weather." Matt couldn't help but drive away the mosquitoes.

After a brief struggle, they gave up. The hot temperatures and dense mosquitoes caused them to flee.Perhaps due to subconscious effects, they climbed up the 600-meter-high hill in unison.Here they experienced a bit of coolness.

"What do you think this is?" Winters picked a few green apples from the tree with his wand and gave them to his friends.

"Thank you, I have always dreamed of having magic," Elsa said with a smile.

"It would be great if you all knew magic," Aurora said distressedly.

"The problem is that even if we can do magic, we won't necessarily go to Hogwarts." Lydia shrugged.

"And this is pretty good, someone can help us with our homework," Jim said very happily.

"You guys... are really lazy. We can't use magic to help us with our homework in school." After Winters finished eating the apple, he closed his eyes contentedly and lay down in the shade of the tree.

"You haven't told us in detail about Shadow Island. We were preparing for the exam the day you came back, and we never asked you." Jim was a little curious.But Aurora didn't know why, her expression suddenly stiffened.

"Aurora, what's wrong with you?" Elsa's eyes were very sharp.

"I...it's nothing." Aurora was a little flustered.

"Isn't the injury to your calf completely healed?" When Harry told Winters how injured Aurora was.Winters kept thanking Hermione.If it weren't for Hermione, he really didn't dare to think about what the consequences would be.

"No...it's just...it's just that the experience in Shadow Island was not very good." Aurora felt a little uneasy.

"Then it's even more important to speak out. Bad experiences need to be shared with friends so that they won't have an impact on yourself," Matt said.

"Okay then..." Aurora was stunned for a moment.Then she calmly recounted her experience with Harry, Slyre, and Hermione on the Shadow Island. When she told about the crazy unicorn with a blade bone on its hoof, it kicked her in the calf. Winters trembled as he ran, because if Aurora ran slower, the attack might break Aurora's spine.

Others were stunned when they heard that Aurora and the others had encountered the Lord of Souls.

"Then I, Elena, and Elsa took them to the safe house," Winters added.

"You beat the Lord of Souls away by yourself?" Lydia looked at Winters with wide eyes.

"No, at most I was at a stalemate with the Soul Master... To be honest, I don't know what to say. I cracked something on its body that might have been a defensive shell," Winters recalled.

"Then how did you escape death?" Jim asked fearfully.He knew the reputation of the Lord of Souls, a terrifying creature that controlled the mist of despair. Some people suspected that this creature was immortal.

"After I cracked the thing on it that might have been a defensive shell, I couldn't hold on any longer. My whole body hurt like being cut by a knife - Aurora, are you okay?" When Winters said about his actions As she staggered back step by step, Aurora suddenly covered her eyes.

"I... maybe a bug flew into my eye," Aurora said angrily.

"Oh... okay - then Elena rushed over, she released a fire snake that was maybe 20 meters long, and then the Lord of Souls turned into a black lightning and left," Winters said simply.

"That girl named Elena came to find you after she sent Harry and the others back to the safe house?" Lydia was very surprised.

"What's the point? Slytherins are not all cowards. They admire bravery and resourcefulness the most. Of course, most Slytherin students admire strong power after all." Winters didn't understand why Li Dia was so surprised that Elena returned to find him.

"I understand now why mom and dad always talk about her." Lydia didn't seem to know what to say.Then she paused and said:

"If I have the chance, I would like to see her again... We didn't talk enough last time."

"What do you mean if you have a chance... If you want to see her, you can see her now. She is not someone who moves erratically." Winters felt confused.

"What reason is there to see her?" Lydia said with a smile.

"Can't you just say that you want to visit her home? In January, I saw that you were very engaged in chatting with her." Winters wondered if Lydia had amnesia.

"We were talking about you, Harry, and Slyer...Merlin's beard...What do you think we were talking about? An academic discussion? Okay...Of course, Elena As a pure-blood wizard, I really didn't expect that he would be very interested in mathematics," Lydia said dumbfounded.

"Then let's continue talking about mathematics. Isn't it obvious?" Winters said somewhat naturally.

"Very good, and then I was considered mentally ill. I went all the way to discuss mathematics with Irina Krall, the beloved daughter of millions of people in the Krall family... My parents were so embarrassed that I was embarrassed. "Lidya said, waving her hands.

"What's so shameful about this... Just say you want to play with her. You can also play football. She's very interested in Quidditch," Winters said immediately.

"Okay, I want to listen to you. In the end, our whole family will be embarrassed... There will be opportunities in the future." Lidya didn't know why, but her subconscious told her that she and Elena would have plenty of time to chat in the future.

As the sun rises, the temperature rises sharply, and the last trace of coolness disappears.They had to make the journey home.Aurora seemed to have something on her mind on the way. No matter how Winters asked her, she refused to tell her. Lydia seemed to know it all, but she just said: It's up to my sister to solve it herself.

When Winters and his two sisters returned home, they saw their mother drinking coffee and reading "Magic Today". The front page was the news that the Triwizard Tournament was being held again.

"Eat quickly, Lydia, go and do your homework as soon as you finish eating. Your homework will be finished in about 7 days. Don't let your brother and sister use magic to help you." Mrs. Eisen could always see through their little tricks at a glance.

"Only adult wizards can participate... If you two were born a few years earlier, you might be able to catch up with the Triwizard Tournament," Lydia said while looking at the newspaper.

"The two of us have already seen the Triwizard Tournament once. For me, Shadow Island is enough to prove everything." Winters immediately shook his head. He still sometimes dreams about everything he experienced on Shadow Island.

"If you say so...it's okay," Lydia said with a grin.

Mrs. Eisen finished drinking her coffee and went to water the flowers. Winters picked up the newspaper and flipped through it roughly. They were all relatively common news, but when he turned to the last page, he saw a 5 cm square area with a Write a few lines:

Auror investigator, Giles Axis, was found dead on his doorstep at 7am this morning.The Auror's widow has yet to comment.Giles Axis was an outstanding Auror, and the Auror Office expresses deep condolences on his passing.

Winters subconsciously tightened his grip on the wand.
