Hogwarts: Dirge of Magic

Clothes, shoes, toys, snacks...

Colorful paper bags filled the entire trunk of the car.

That was the result of their hard work from morning to afternoon.

If the physiques of the four were not different from ordinary people, they would have fallen to the ground from exhaustion.

at dusk.

The four finally returned to the orphanage by car.

The sound of the car attracted the attention of the orphanage owner.

No, the four of Xifa got out of the car and walked into the orphanage with big and small bags.

Mrs. Mary, who heard the sound, had already come down from upstairs and stopped in the lobby to wait.

Seeing that Alice and Luna also followed, the smile on her face became more obvious.

Just now, she was a disobedient brat who was preaching at home!

See Mrs. Mary greeted in the lobby.

The three girls hurriedly greeted Mrs. Mary.

Sifa put the things aside with a tired face, and only said hello to Madam Mary, then staggered towards the stairs and climbed to his room.

He wants to take a breath, shopping is really exhausting.

Behind him, Madam Mary shook her head helplessly.

Xifa is very respectful to herself, but sometimes there is always a feeling of getting along with adults...

Wait until Sifa's figure disappears around the corner of the stairs.

At this time, Madam Mary came back to her senses, and she noticed that the three daughters were still beside her, motionless.

I was a little surprised.

It's good to put things here, but they didn't run to Xifa's room as usual... Do you have something to look for yourself?

Madam Mary looked away while thinking, and what imprinted in her eyes was the shy Elise and the shy Luna. They were either grabbing the corner of the skirt with their hands, or tapping the ground with their toes...

Cassandra covered her mouth with her hands and snickered, her eyes curved like crescent moons.

what's the situation?

Mrs. Mary, who has always had a good eye, is a little at a loss...

......

In the end, it was Elise who gritted her teeth and stepped forward to break the stalemate.

She took Madam Mary's hand, blushed, lowered her head, and whispered her and Luna's feelings.

Hear the thoughts of the two.

Mrs. Mary was startled at first, and then she naturally showed a look of great joy on her face. She pulled the two into her arms without hesitation, rubbed their hair, and agreed with a smile.

The last time Alice and Luna came here as guests, I had this idea.

But at that time, I didn't know their family situation.

Moreover, Elise's grandfather was still alive on the surface. Although Luna's grandfather did not meet, there was still a 'message'. It was really difficult for Elise and Luna to decide for themselves at the time.

Madam Mary's regret at that time has finally come true today!

------

Sifa returned to the room and slumped heavily on the bed.

He closed his eyes, wanting to take a nap, regain some energy and go to prepare dinner for everyone.

But he never thought that he was extremely tired today, and when Xifa opened his eyes, the sky began to become dark.

You know, it's summer!

However, when Xifa went downstairs to the hall, everyone was still waiting for him.

Feeling warm in my heart, following Madam Mary's order, the belated dinner kicked off...

At night, Luna and Cassandra played games with the children below, and the laughter resounded throughout the orphanage.

On the roof terrace, Xifa sank deep into a rocking chair, in addition to watching the lively scene below, he could also enjoy the cool summer breeze at night.

The wind is mixed with the sound of insects from time to time, so pleasant!

Beside her, Alice was wearing a white cheongsam with light blue patterns, her long white hair was tied into double ponytails, there was only a white leg ring on her leg, and a pair of white slippers were on her feet.

At this time, she was sitting beside Xifa with a paintbrush in her hand.

His eyes kept moving back and forth between the drawing paper and Xifa.

She wants to paint a portrait of Sifa.

......

At first, Sifa was reluctant, he didn't like being photographed and painted.

See Xifa expressed disgust from the bottom of his heart.

Alice bit her lips lightly, stomped her feet lightly, turned and left.

After a while, Xifa was a little annoyed, should he go to comfort Elise?

Just when Xifa was about to get up, Alice came back to her side dressed as the blue and white porcelain version of Qiongmei.

Xifa, who is already a little guilty, is decisive and really fragrant...

There was another breeze from the opposite direction, and a faint fragrance poured into the tip of Sifa's nose, which was the fragrance of Elise.

rustle--

The sound of the brush rubbing against the drawing paper kept ringing.

"Elise?" Xifa couldn't help asking when he saw that Alice had a good painting posture, not like a beginner.

"I'm here!" Seeing that Sifer looked at her, Alice smiled at Sifer.

The hand movements are still non-stop, changing pens, mixing dyes...

I wanted to ask Elise when she learned to draw, but when I thought about it, Elise is so good at drawing magic patterns, wouldn't drawing be easy?

So the question that came to the lips became another question.

"What does your shop do when you don't buy magical weapons?"

Alice paused slightly when she heard the words.

She raised her head and rolled her eyes at Sifa.

Since it was an entertainment time for the two of them alone, Alice did not tell Xifa the answer.

Instead, he spit out a word to Xifa—you guessed it!

Let yourself guess... Sifa frowned.

Elise probably wouldn't let herself guess an industry in the wizarding world that she hadn't seen before.

Master of spells, magic pattern... these are the first keywords that come to mind when summarizing Elise's knowledge.

Private wizarding teacher?Does this job require a shop?As soon as this thought came up, Xifa strangled him to death.

Seeing that she had been thinking for a long time, the corner of Alice's mouth, holding the paintbrush, was filled with a hint of evil and satisfaction.

A slight smile at the corner of his mouth attracted Xifa's attention.

Natural Xifa also saw the paintbrush in Alice's hand.

brush?draw?Magic painting!

"Magic painting?!" Surprised and unbelievable words came out of Xifa's mouth.

Alice looked bitter.

I was guessed... Originally, if Xifa couldn't guess it, I would coerce him and make him change into a suit...

Seeing the change in Elise's expression, Sifer's expression was also completely stunned.

"It's really a magical painting! I haven't heard you say it before!"

Hearing this, Alice's cheeks became puffy.

"Magic paintings are different from magic patterns! It requires the artist to inject emotions into the portraits. In short, I can't make vibrant magic paintings now."

"It's better than Muggle oil paintings!"

After speaking, Alice showed the half-finished portrait to Xifa.

Hmm... It looks like a SLR photo, but is it really painted?

As expected of a wizard, this is magic!

The astonishment in Xifa's eyes was undisguised.

Alice, who was watching Sifa, naturally saw it, and she was a little pleased, but asked as if nothing had happened.

"Guess again, how long have I been studying magic painting?"
