Hogwarts: Dirge of Magic

Come to the back street of the bar.

The first thing you can see is the wall full of time.

Looking down, there is a trash can full of sundries.

In front of a relatively clean and empty wall.

Alice stopped walking.

"Miss Dumbledore? What should I do next?"

After being reborn for several years, Xifa's memory is a little unclear, and he only remembers that this leads to Diagon Alley.

But how to go about it?The only exit here is the door they came from.

Seeing that Alice hadn't moved for a long time, Xifa asked.

However, the pensive Elise did not respond.

Until Sifa aggravated the voice and called again.

"what!"

Alice seemed to suddenly understand that Sifa was calling her.

Facing Xifa's concerned eyes.

She stuck out her tongue and replied.

"Sorry, sorry, let me think again, which door brick is it?"

"The trash can here was moved by old Tom, I don't remember exactly."

Xifa looked at the trash can at his feet, there were indeed fresh signs of movement.

Xifa thought for a while, and proposed.

"Is there any number of trials and errors in the mechanism here?"

Seeing that Alice was a little confused, he added.

"That's right, it's okay to try one by one?"

Elise's eyes suddenly opened wide.

"It seems, yes!"

With that, she turned around and took out her wand.

Point to the wall with the tip of the stick.

Finally, an unremarkable brick echoed Elise's wand, emitting a faint milky white fluorescence.

"Ahem, next, you will see the wonderful magical world. Don't blink!"

Alice said pretending to be serious.

But in her crescent-shaped eyes, the smile couldn't be hidden.

"Just now I just found the last brick."

Seeing that the flickering Xifa was almost done, Alice continued to demonstrate.

"Start here, count up to three, count down to two, and finally hit three. Remember, the whole process will infuse magic into the wand."

After finishing all this, the silver-haired girl raised her wand.

The wall visibly trembled and began to change.

The girl turned a half circle to the side, her hair dancing like silk.

At last, Alice stood still gracefully,

"Welcome to Diagon Alley!"

Camille's crisp welcoming voice was quickly overshadowed by the noisy rumble of stones rubbing against each other.

I saw the walls shaking like living things, and the bricks were constantly changing in and out.

It should be the beginning of the school season, but there is no dust falling in the whole place.

After a while, the sound stopped.

After the wall squirmed, it turned into a wide archway, revealing a winding cobblestone road behind the wall, with no end in sight.

"Wait, Miss Dumbledore."

The reaction was half a beat too late, and Elise seemed a little unhappy, so she interrupted Xifa's next words.

"Sifer! We will be classmates at Hogwarts soon. I call you Sifer, you call me Elise, and always call me Miss Dumbledore! It seems too unfamiliar!"

"Uh, yes! Elise!"

Some hesitated, but as Alice's eyes widened, Sifa decisively changed his words.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Elise was ready to answer, and she expected that Sifa should be asking what the reason is.

Then I have to tell him what transfiguration is, what is magic pattern, alchemy and so on.

To whet the appetite of Xifa.

However, as soon as Xifa spoke, Alice regretted letting Xifa call herself Alice.

"My grant for school and teaching materials and wands, have you brought it?"

Needle drop can be heard at the scene...

"Bring it~bring it! Miss Ben is doing things, don't worry!"

The outburst after Elise's silence made Xifa a little overwhelmed, and he quickly apologized to please Elise.

"Humph!"

Finally, Alice snorted softly, expressing that she forgave Sifa.

"Then, let's go shopping in Diagon Alley, Xifa."

Hey, isn't it appropriate to hold grudges like this?

......

Looking at the strange display of goods and the bustling crowd not far from both sides.

The noise filled the ears.

Xifa stood there in a daze for a while.

Elise stretched out her hand, intending to ridicule Sifa for being attracted by this little thing.

But she saw Sifa's eyes from the side.

He subconsciously stopped moving.

He didn't open his mouth to make fun of Xifa's behavior.

After waiting for a while, Alice saw that Xifa's eyes fluctuated again.

She stretched out her slender fingers and poked Xifa's arm.

"Don't stand here! We still have a lot of things to buy!"

After saying that, he walked forward without looking back.

Looking at the bouncing silver satin in front of him, Xifa's anxiety about facing the unknown world and the pressure of the dark future basically dissipated.

After turning his mind around, Xifa showed the happiest smile born in this world with his longing for a better experience in the future.

"God, you really dare to let me touch extraordinary power!"

----------------------

On the stone-paved street, Alice swayed ahead and led the way.

As for Xifa, although he has been a human being for two lifetimes, he is still attracted by the dazzling array of magic artifacts.

Several times, Alice, who had gone far, had to stop and wait.

Finally, Alice couldn't take it anymore.

She reached out and grabbed Sifer's hand, pulling him forward forcefully.

Although in the orphanage, Xifa often held his sister's hand, but being held by Elise gave Xifa a feeling like an electric shock.

It's a pity that the outside world has enough things to divert Xifa's attention, and Xifa has not been able to understand it in detail.

Subconsciously let Elise pull herself.

And Xifa's eyes kept scanning to both sides.

Different from the rush of the Muggle world outside, the wizarding world is still dominated by leisure and fun.

There are all kinds of magical products on the windows or counters, such as the moving wizard chess, the scaled-down Charmander, and Xifa was lucky to see the Charmander spewing fist-sized fireballs at him.

There are also stalls with all kinds of strange materials, such as a basket of feathers of various colors, eyeballs of various pupils, and strange leather products with colorful fluorescence.

There are also unique wind chimes hanging on the signboards of many stores.

As the breeze blows, melodious songs in an unknown language come out of the wind chimes.

"Even if Elise is not Dumbledore's adopted daughter, her background is not bad."

Xifa thought to himself,

"These tunes are nice but difficult to pronounce, but Elise can hum them with ease."

Xifa regained his doubts. Naturally, Alice was not sensitive to the title Dumbledore.

But Elise is indeed her name.

It can be seen that although Elise is dragging the soy sauce bottle of Xifa, she is very happy on this walk.

I don't know how long it took, when Xifa's line of sight was once again filled by the wall, and his forward steps were also blocked by a soft body.

Elise, whose face was pale and rosy, saw Xifa showing an unsatisfactory expression.

It seemed that he didn't notice that he had reached the end of Diagon Alley.

Alice's words of reprimand came to a halt in her mouth.

"Sifa, what do you want to buy first?"

Don't guess what a girl is thinking. Sometimes, she will deliberately provoke you, hoping to get your attention, and sometimes, she will suddenly smile at you.

No, Alice smiled and asked Xifa about her next plan to satisfy her desire to go shopping.

"Of course I bought a wand!"

After hearing this, Xifa opened his mouth and said without hesitation.

Although this is the main street of Diagon Alley, the wand shop is obviously not here.

Otherwise, with Xifa's panoramic view of things on both sides, he would have stopped in front of the wand shop long ago.

Alice was not surprised when she heard this.

Going around, Iris successfully brought Xifa to the destination.
