From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

Chapter 8 The Castle’s New Ghost

Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington had been a knight, but that was during his lifetime. Now he's a Hogwarts ghost.

He was a court wizard during his lifetime, but was later beheaded by the royal family for making some mistakes. Sadly, the ax used for beheading was not sharp enough, and the wizard's resistance was unusually high. It took several ax blows to kill him completely. There was only a layer of skin remaining between his head and neck, which caused him to have a head that had not completely fallen off in his ghost state. Therefore, the ghosts at Hogwarts call him Nearly Headless Nick.

That night, Nicholas had just enjoyed the "delicious" food in the ghost cafeteria and was wandering around the castle, hoping to scare some new little wizards. It has to be said that scaring the new students is one of the few fun they have as ghosts.

At this time, a ghost with black hair and black eyes walked towards him, or rather floated towards him. He was wearing simple white clothes. He did not look like a wizard, but rather like a traveler from a foreign land. Although his face is a little pale, it can be vaguely seen from the shape of his face that he is not Caucasian.

"I don't think I've seen you before." Nicholas asked. "newcomer?"

The ghost with black hair and black eyes nodded and said: "I come from an ancient civilization in the East. I loved traveling around the world during my lifetime, and I still maintain this habit after my death."

Nicholas opened his eyes wide: "There is such a thing! As far as I know, ghosts can only live where they have walked. How are you going to travel around the world?"

The black-haired ghost paused and said without changing his expression: "My footprints are almost all over the world during my lifetime. After becoming a ghost, I can only revisit the places I have visited."

Nicholas said: "I see, the world is really big and full of wonders. Welcome to Hogwarts! My name is Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington, you can call me Sir Nicholas."

The black-haired man smiled rather strangely: "Hello, Sir Nicholas. I have an English name, Stephen Strange. You can call me Dr. Strange."

……

This ghost with black hair and black eyes is naturally Xiwen. After his rebirth, he accidentally used his soul to leave the body again, but found that the appearance of his soul did not follow the body and change into the appearance of little Rozier, but still maintained the appearance. Body shape and appearance during Kama Taj.

At that time, Xiwen wanted to secretly use the out-of-body reading method to save study time at home. However, after his soul left, he discovered that he actually retained the soul that had traveled through the multiverse, and his image had not changed at all!

It involves the biggest secret of the time traveler, and he doesn't dare to leak it to others!

Xiwen hid this soul for ten years until he saw a ghost floating in the castle before the sorting ceremony, and he suddenly had a brilliant idea.

So, he rather wickedly named himself Stephen Strange, which was the name of an interesting newcomer before he left Karma Taj, and used this name to arrange a new life for his soul. identity.

……

"Are you a doctor?" Nicholas asked curiously.

"Ah no, I'm a doctor. It's an academic title among Muggles." Sivan explained, then he thought about it and added another sentence. "I seem to be a doctor too, well, just think of me as a doctor."

"Apparently?" The corner of Nicholas's mouth twitched. However, because many ghosts often cannot remember what happened during their lives, it is probably understandable that they are not sure about their occupation...

"Okay, Doctor Strange. Do you want me to take you to visit Hogwarts Castle?" Nicholas said enthusiastically.

"My pleasure." Xiwen bowed gracefully.

Nicholas took Sivan to visit the castle while introducing the life of ghosts here.

"Hogwarts has always welcomed ghosts from all over the world. Of course, only ghosts who have been to Hogwarts can live here. We have formed a strict ghost council to manage the ghosts in the castle..."

Nicholas is undoubtedly a warm-hearted ghost. He took Sivan to have a general understanding of the environment of Hogwarts Castle and the many ghost natives living here. He also specifically warned Xiwen not to enter the classrooms where students attend class and the offices of professors, as this would affect their study and work.

The two passed through another wall and saw a pudgy ghost dressed as a religious clergyman.

"Good evening, Nick. Who is this?" He looked at Xiwen curiously.

"Good evening, Friar. This is Doctor Strange. He likes to travel around the world and has just arrived at Hogwarts." Nicholas introduced Sivan to the fat monk, and then turned to Sivan.

"This is the fat monk. He is a good old man."

Xiwen greeted the fat monk in a friendly manner: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Friar."

A big smile appeared on the fat monk's round face. "Ah, nice to meet you too, Doctor Strange. You can just call me fat monk."

The three ghosts chatted happily. Sivan wanted to learn about the history and environment of Hogwarts from Nicholas and the monks. The two local ghosts were very interested in Sivan's so-called experience of traveling around the world.

Fortunately, Xiwen once used the portal to travel around the world to find a solution to his illness, so that he would not be completely betrayed.

Suddenly, Xiwen felt himself being hit. A half-broken slipper passed through his head and fell to the ground.

He turned around and saw a small ghost with a pair of evil black eyes and a big mouth. He was wearing a pointed hat with blue and white stripes and many bells, a red star jumper and an orange bow tie. , grinning at himself in mid-air.

"Look what I saw, a new ghost!" He said and smashed the other slipper over.

"Oh, come on, Peeves!" the fat monk said angrily.

Nicholas even shouted angrily to Peeves: "I'm going to call Barrow over, Peeves!"

Dodging the slippers lightly, Xiwen asked curiously: "Is this also a ghost from Hogwarts? How can he touch the real thing?"

"To be precise, Peeves is a prankster, but it is indeed managed by our ghost council." The monk explained. "Actually, he's not evil, he just likes to play pranks."

Nicholas interrupted the fat monk, "Okay, monk, stop spoiling Peeves, look what he did!"

At this time, Peeves took out a bunch of rotten eggs from nowhere and threw them over, singing an unpleasant song while throwing them:

Big silly monkey from the east

He said he wanted to travel to Castle Travel

He's not familiar with this place at all

I can only be a stupid monkey

Xiwen's eyes twitched as he avoided the rotten eggs, "The singing is quite rhyming..."

He looked at the monk and Nicholas and asked: "Can I teach him a little lesson?"

Before the fat monk could speak, Nicholas nodded without hesitation and said: "If you can, please teach him a big lesson!"

...It seems that Peeves is quite unpopular, Xiven thought to himself.

He looked directly at Peeves, a light flashing in his eyes.

Peeves was smiling happily when he suddenly felt that the scene in front of him had changed. The place he was in was no longer the castle of Hogwarts, but a bottomless abyss.

You know, since he was born as a prankster, he has never left Hogwarts. At this moment, Peeves has begun to panic.

Quite suddenly, he began to fall into the abyss. The light and shadow in front of him changed rapidly, from the infinite macroscopic world to the infinitely small microscopic world, as if the entire universe was struggling to drown him!

He fell, then stopped suddenly. Before he could recover, Peeves felt his body begin to split into countless parts. Then the countless parts of his body smashed into the central torso, causing him to fall crazily... …

"boom!"

From the perspective of Nicholas and the Fat Friar, Peeves suddenly stopped in the air as if frozen, and half a minute later suddenly fell rapidly and hit the floor.

Peeves struggled to raise his head from the floor, and when he saw that the castle had returned to his eyes, he screamed and staggered away from Xiven.

‘I feel comfortable now. ’ Xiwen showed a smile. He had long wanted to try the spell that the teacher used to scare his younger brother, but he didn’t expect to find the opportunity until he came to this world.

The fat monk glanced at Xiwen with a complex expression: "How did you do it?"

The mischievous smile on Xiwen's face froze slightly, he coughed dryly, and then said seriously: "I am not a ghost formed by normal death. In order to travel around the world, I cast a spell and actively abandoned my cumbersome body, thus becoming a special Ghost, so it still retains a certain amount of spiritual spell-casting ability. I just cast an illusion on Peeves. Yes, that's it!"

"There is actually such an operation!" Nicholas exclaimed with a knowledgeable look. "It seems that in addition to Bloody Balor, Peeves will have one more ghost to be afraid of."
