Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 830 Unreliable Nico

Without even looking at Kyle, Wenda Rosier chose to disperse the Fiendfyre in order to save Grindelwald. Kyle also did not hesitate. The moment she left, he got on his broom and flew outside without looking back.

It's not like he hadn't thought about giving Wenda Rosier a hard blow from behind while she was dispelling the Fiendfyre, but after thinking it over he felt that it was unnecessary. He couldn't guarantee that he could kill Rosier, even with the help of the basilisk.

If she hadn't died, she would most likely choose to solve her own problem first. Then everything would return to the starting point, and the effect of him igniting Nurmengard would be minimized.

Also, if Grindelwald was really burned to death by Fiendfyre, he would be trapped in endless hunting... These guys are much more difficult to deal with than the Death Eaters, so this deal is not worth it no matter how you look at it.

So it would be better to end the game right now, which would be considered a win for him.

As for what to do next... As long as Dumbledore can be brought back, these messes can be directly thrown to him... Kyle got involved with Rosier and others in order to save him, and this was originally his responsibility.

"Stop!" Tinos originally wanted to stop Kyle, but a fierce fire suddenly changed direction and slowly floated towards the few people still lying on the ground. He had no choice but to grit his teeth, give up Kyle, and turn around to save people.

Since no one was chasing him anymore, Kyle chose to go to a high place and fired the Firebolt at full speed.

About ten minutes later, the magic light appeared again behind him... It seemed that the people who were deceived before had returned, but at the same time, Kyle also felt that some kind of restraint that had always existed around him had disappeared.

A second before the spell fell on him, Kyle smiled slightly and disappeared into the air in an instant.

Disapparate.

When he appeared again, the surrounding scenery had changed from forest to towering peaks, which looked like a mountain range.

Because he was unfamiliar with Austria and did not want to return to the forest entrance, Kyle could only choose to move randomly, which would also prevent Rozier and his men from finding his location.

Fortunately, this destination is not bad. It should be far away from the forest and there are no Muggles around.

Kyle jumped off his broom and sat on a rock.

He was somewhat thankful that his mind was clear today, without the sleepy and groggy feeling he had before.

After all, he was facing twelve battle-hardened wizards. If he was not careful, even if it was just a wrong decision... he might have been caught by them.

Kyle sat for a while, preparing to drink something to relieve his highly nervous spirit.

It just so happened that it was time to go to bed, so he thought of the 'raspberry juice' Nico gave him.

Even though it's a magic potion, it tastes really good, much better than pumpkin soda.

But when Kyle took the bottle out, he found that it was still empty. The water that was drunk in the morning was not refilled like before.

"Already finished drinking?"

Kyle shook the cup and made sure that the 'raspberry juice' would not bubble out anymore before he put it back and replaced it with another bottle of light blue potion and poured it into his mouth.

The refreshing potion also eased Kyle's tense nerves a little. He stopped thinking about Wenda Rosier and thought about how to get back.

He took out the 'ticket' given by Nico, which was the two-way mirror.

"Nico, Nico...are you there?"

Kyle shouted twice tentatively, thinking it was another futile effort. Unexpectedly, a few seconds later, the two-way mirror suddenly lit up, and then Nico's face appeared.

"Oh... has it been resolved?" Nico asked. "It's a little slower than I thought."

"It would be much faster if you moved the door key to another place." Kyle said unhappily. He was being hunted for nearly a whole night and he felt a little resentful.

None of this would have happened if Nico hadn't set up the portkey location in the base camp of Rosier and his men.

"What happened?" Nico asked in surprise.

"You do not know?"

"Should I know?" Nico blinked. "In fact, I haven't been to that place for sixty years. The location of the door key is where I came out after the transformation of Nurmengard. Why, it's not a forest now?"

"Yes, there are just a few more people." Kyle repeated what happened before.

"Twelve people have been chasing me for the entire night. If I am not careful, I might die here, not to mention saving Dumbledore."

"Wenda Rosier?" Nico suddenly realized.

"So many Aurors couldn't find her. I didn't expect that she was hiding near Nurmengard. But if you think about it carefully, it seems that only that place is the safest. After all, wizards who have experienced that period dare not approach Grindelwald, even though he has been imprisoned."

"Why? He can't run away from Nurmengard."

"Oh, you probably don't know." Nico explained: "Many of those who followed Grindelwald were Aurors who were responsible for capturing him. He was also captured several times before, but he escaped with the help of the Watchers.

“The International Confederation of Wizards investigated those people and found that they all started following Grindelwald during his arrest.

"It is rumored that Grindelwald knows a special Imperius Curse that can corrupt the mind invisibly. Because of these things, the Aurors naturally dare not approach Nurmengard."

"A special Imperius Curse?" Kyle raised an eyebrow. "Then why did you let me come here? Aren't you afraid that I will release him?"

"Don't be afraid, because this is just the International Confederation of Wizards' excuse." Nico said, "The real reason is definitely not the Imperius Curse, but what it is exactly... I'm afraid only Grindelwald and the guards know."

"Okay." Kyle sighed, "Let's not talk about this anymore. How am I going to get back now?"

"Ah, this..." Nico was speechless for a moment.

"what happened?"

"It's like this..." Nico whispered, "I set a return time on your portkey."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" Kyle held the two-way mirror in his hand.

"When?"

"Twelve o'clock."

"Twelve o'clock noon?" Kyle frowned. "I have to wait so long, why can't it be earlier?"

"No, it's not noon." Nico shook his head, "It's evening, or early morning."

Kyle's heart skipped a beat, but he still said tentatively: "Okay, even though it's later, it's only one day, so it's not impossible to wait..."

"No, it was early yesterday morning." Nico continued, "In other words, you have missed the return trip."

"It was also my fault for not thinking it through. I didn't expect you to meet Wenda Rozier, which delayed you for some time."

it is as expected……

Kyle sighed, "So what should I do now."

"Well... you'll have to figure it out on your own." Nico smiled awkwardly and said, "Or you can go around Austria. It's pretty good there, especially the music. It's so good that you won't want to leave."

"And then wait for Rozier to come to you?"

"Don't worry about that. They won't leave the forest easily." Nico said. He suddenly looked to his left. "Oh, the repair of the time converter has reached a critical moment. I have to go and see it. Good luck..."

After saying that, the two-sided mirror darkened.

"Hey, Nico, don't go. It's a thousand miles from here!"

Kyle shouted twice, but the two-way mirror didn't respond at all. Obviously, Nico had put his mirror somewhere else.

This... is more than a thousand miles. Let him figure it out on his own?

Kyle was so angry that he almost threw the mirror into the lake across the street.

This would be easy in England, a few apparitions or making your own portkey would be enough.

But the problem is that this is Austria, and if he uses Apparition and the portkey, he might be caught by Aurors from the countries along the way in the next second and be charged with illegal entry.

Unless he used an illegal door key, like the two-way mirror he had used when he came here, but he didn't know how to make that thing, and he was unfamiliar with the place and had no way to buy one.

Now it seems that the only way is to fly back on a broom.

Over a thousand miles...even with a Firebolt, it would probably take ten hours.

Strictly speaking, it's not that far. For professional Quidditch players, whose games may last for several days, a ten-hour flight is not a problem at all.

But Kyle is not a professional player, and his legs start to ache at the thought of flying for so long.

How about staying here and playing for a while, and wait for Nico to finish making the time-twister and send it over...

No!

As soon as this idea came up, it was rejected by Kyle.

Although Nico said that Rosier would not leave the forest easily, he did not dare to bet on this possibility. It would be better to leave here as soon as possible.

Nico's arrangement is too rough.

"We have to think of another way." Kyle paced on the spot while blaming Nico in his heart... Suddenly, he saw a flock of birds flying over the opposite hill.

There was nothing wrong with a flock of birds, and it was a perfectly normal thing, but they gave Kyle inspiration.

He quickly pulled out another two-way mirror and tapped it with his wand.

"Connor, are you there?" Kyle said softly.

This time, the two-way mirror responded quickly, and Kanna appeared in the mirror rubbing her eyes.

"Kyle?" She seemed to be still asleep. "What's wrong?"

"I'm sorry," Kyle said. "Well, I'm in Austria right now. Are you familiar with this place?"

"Ah?" Kanna suddenly woke up, "Why did you go there again? Are you here for fun?"

"Not this time. I have something important to do." Kyle said, "Are you familiar with this place?"

"Not familiar." Connor shook her head. "I've never been there."

"What about Fleur? She should know. I remember she mentioned the music here during the Triwizard Tournament and recommended that we come here."

"Is there?" Kanna thought for a moment, "Forget it, I'll go ask her, she's next door."

Kanna stood up quickly...and heard footsteps in the mirror.

Not long after, the image appeared in the mirror again, this time it was Furong.

Maybe because she was woken up too early, she was in a bad mood and didn't treat Kyle well at all.

"What's the matter? Tell me quickly."

Kyle didn't waste any time and asked directly: "Where is the post office in Austria?"

"Which post office?"

"Austria."

"Why do you ask?"

"Because I'm right here," Kyle said, "and I need to find a post office, if you know that."

"I don't know. I just went there to play, and I didn't send any letters." Furong said unhappily, "But I know there is a famous wizard village there. You can go and take a look."

Furong gave an address and then roughly closed the two-way mirror.

Kyle got on his broom again and headed towards the place she mentioned.

……

It's a long way, but it's a lot closer than a thousand miles.

It only took Kyle half an hour to reach a square in the south of Vienna.

According to Fleur, there is a giant statue of an accordion with a hollow space in the middle that only wizards can see.

Kyle quickly found the gap.

After walking in, there was a village similar to Hogsmeade, but much more lively than Hogsmeade. The wizards were dressed differently, and many of them could be seen at a glance as foreign tourists.

And as soon as he came in, Kyle heard melodious music.

Near the entrance was a piano playing a song. No one was sitting in front of it, but the keys were moving on their own.

Going further, you can see a string quartet. In front of a clothing store, the owner of a clothing store, wearing distinctive clothes, is happily beating a hand drum.

You can even see a small band at the door of the bar. They are also wearing unique Austrian costumes. Three of them are wizards, and the other two are creatures similar to Cornish elves, with transparent wings and serrated tails. They are playing a cello that matches their body size... It sounds pretty good.

What’s even more amazing is that these music not only have their own characteristics, but also do not affect each other.

I can only say that this is the place with the best music atmosphere. If you have nothing to do, it's really nice to come here and have a look.

Even though Kyle was in a hurry before, he slowed down unconsciously after arriving here and walked between the various stores.

The village was not big, but it took Kyle more than an hour to finally walk into the Owl Post Office next to the tavern with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

"Hello, guest."

The clerk looked Kyle up and down for a while, and then spoke in a pure London accent, "Do you need any help? Mail a letter, a postcard, or a gift?"

"A gift." Kyle said, "It's a bit far away though."

"You are worrying too much. If you want to ship it to the UK, the store's couriers will have no problem at all."

"you know?"

"It's obvious, isn't it?" The clerk smiled, "If I'm not mistaken, the customer should have just graduated from Hogwarts and is here to play.

"But there is one thing I must inform you of. Due to the current situation in the UK, the cost of hiring a courier may be a little more expensive than usual. I hope you can understand..."

"I only ask for speed, price is not an issue." Kyle took out a heavy bag of Galleons.

Hearing the jingling sounds inside, the clerk's smile became even brighter.

"What a generous customer! Please allow me to recommend cabbage to you." The clerk waved his hand, and a sturdy owl immediately flew over.

It's a little smaller than Rodan, but it's still outstanding compared to other owls. It's obvious that it's the gold medal messenger here.

"So where do you need it delivered?"

"UK, Ministry of Magic."

"In that case, it will cost ten Galleons in total," the clerk said with a smile.

Kyle paused as he took out the money.

"This is a bit expensive. As far as I know, sending a letter over this distance won't even cost more than one Galleon."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Many messengers don't want to go to England... those monsters wearing cloaks will freeze their wings."

A monster in a cloak...it couldn't be a Dementor, Kyle thought to himself.

But wasn’t that thing solved a year ago? Isn’t the information in this place a bit too outdated?

"Or you can choose another courier." The clerk continued, "It may take longer, but the price is cheaper, only five Galleons."

"Forget it, this is it."

Kyle didn't explain anything and just took out ten gold coins and put them on the table.

"But I may need to buy some more things. Can I take it with me? Then I won't have to make another trip."

"According to the regulations, it is not allowed." The clerk said, "But it is rare to meet such a generous customer, and it is difficult for us to refuse such a small request... As long as it doesn't take too long."

"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you." Kyle took two steps and turned his head again, "Oh, by the way, I need another envelope."

"It's free." The clerk placed a standard envelope on the table.

Kyle took the envelope and left without saying anything.

He had spent ten Galleons, so it would be too much to charge for the envelope.

A few minutes later, the messenger owl left the village clutching a bulging envelope, and Kyle disappeared as well.
