HP: The New God from Hogwarts

Tom took the kerosene lamp from Wendy's hand, moved slowly, and walked to Ominis' side.

The yellow light of the kerosene lamp hit his face, and his pupils were as unable to focus as ever. Tom's face was expressionless: "Why are you still looking like this, Mr. Gunter?"

Ominis smiled and did not answer him immediately. His pale knuckles touched the wand containing the ghost light in his hand.

Tom squinted his eyes and looked at the wand. It seemed to be just an ordinary holly wand, nothing special about it.

Momo recognized it, it was her old wand.

The only sound in the room was the crackling sound of the kerosene lamp burning, which was particularly loud in the silent space. I don't know how long it had passed before I heard Ominis' soft voice.

"I'm waiting for someone."

Tom looked back at Taowu and sighed helplessly. He pointed at his head and gestured to her.

"The answer is wrong. He has a problem here."

Taowu silently shook her head at him, then her eyes gently fell on Ominis's white pupils, and asked softly: "Who are you waiting for, Mr. Gunter?"

He should be waiting for Sebas.

The brown-haired boy who will never come back.

Even though he could not see with his eyes, Ominis could still accurately locate her direction with just his voice. He was still stroking the complex patterns on the wand's body.

"I am waiting for the owner of this wand."

Waiting for her? Momo looked at Ominis in confusion.

"A very important old friend, she suddenly lost all news and traces one day. At that time, I had many questions to ask her, but I searched and waited for so long, and the answers to the questions were no longer important. ."

"Now, I just want to hear her voice again."

Ominis's voice was very soft, like snow melting in the sun on a winter morning, but it was exceptionally clear in a quiet room.

"So I was even happy when I was cursed. I became a monster that would never age. My blood would no longer be warm, my heart would no longer beat, and I could no longer enjoy the sun. But I had eternal life. A lifetime to wait for her."

"Maybe one day, she will come back, suddenly think of me, and come to this abandoned old house to remember the past."

Tom took another step forward, bent down slightly, and unceremoniously stretched out his hand to reach his heart. Wendy stood aside and looked at them blankly, not stopping him.

The palm of his hand did not feel the rhythm of his heart through the fabric, nor did he feel the warm temperature that a human body should have. Ominis did not care about his rude behavior and just smiled calmly.

Taowu quickly pulled him away: "Tom, this is so rude, you shouldn't be like this."

The palm of his hand left Ominis's heart without warmth. Tom looked at Taowu's hand holding his sleeve, then raised his eyes to look at her eyes staring at Ominis, and chuckled.

Why are you pretending? You have put your hands there for so long, and now you are just opening your mouth to stop him.

"There is no temperature, no heartbeat, but it can move. It's just like an inferi." Tom's mouth couldn't say anything that people liked to hear.

Taowu glared at him and retorted in a low voice: "It can think and speak. When you stretched out your hand, I didn't give you a claw. It's completely different from the Inferi, okay."

Ominis tilted his head, as if listening to her voice carefully, then raised his head and asked her: "Who are you?"

"I'm Tom's friend and a student at Hogwarts. I want to investigate some things with him."

"Hogwarts?" Ominis seemed to be remembering something, and the smile on his face became calmer, "Which house are you assigned to?"

"Hufflepuff."

"So, what's your name?"

"Luna." Momo glanced at him warily, and when she saw him frowning slightly, she immediately added, "Luna Scamander."

Tom glanced at her doubtfully. Taowu was not sure what Ominis wanted to do and why she was waiting for her. Maybe she wanted to avenge Sebastian. Her current life trajectory was too similar to that of a hundred years ago. She didn't want to Let him notice the clues.

Ominis asked her: "Who are you, Magizoologist Newt Scamander?"

"Grandpa, he is my grandfather."

"But, I haven't heard of his marriage."

Momogiri secretly regretted that she should have said that she was the descendant of Theseus and Lita just now.

Tom stood by and listened to their undercurrent conversation in confusion. He really didn't understand why Taowu kept lying to this seemingly harmless Mr. Gunter.

"It's just that you haven't heard of it, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, right?"

Tom caught up with her words and changed the topic: "Mr. Gunter, Luna and I came here to investigate something. During the Hogwarts Quidditch match, there was a strange buzzing sound, and raindrops were falling on the ground. The sky stagnated and stopped landing. I remember hearing about such a thing from you before."

"Hogwarts?" Ominis did not answer Tom's question, "You stayed at Hogwarts?"

When Tom opened his mouth and found it difficult to reply, Taowu immediately said nonsense: "Tom is now our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."

"Congratulations on getting what you wanted, Tom." Ominis nodded slightly at him, and then asked him a breathtaking question.

"I heard that the evil Voldemort was killed ten years ago. You must have contributed a lot."

Tom: ...very speechless.

"I can't remember the scene clearly because I couldn't see it at all. I just heard a harsh buzzing sound that penetrated my eardrums."

Ominis paused, and then continued: "I heard the voice of Pappy Sweeting, the Hufflepuff at that time. She said that the rain had stopped in the air, and there was a lot of fog around the castle, and the visibility was insufficient. Half a meter.”

"There is thick fog when it rains. This is unscientific!" Taowu couldn't help but say it.

Ominis smiled after hearing her words: "There is no science in the wizarding world. Only Muggles pay attention to these things."

"I heard Westin's voice again. She seemed to be scared. She said she saw a huge black shadow hidden in the thick fog, moving slowly."

Ominis continued.

"She said, I have to call Tao to come and have a look."

Taowu's fingertips trembled, but Tom looked at him doubtfully: "Who is that?"

"The person you most wanted to be."

Tom frowned: "That big devil?"

"Yes, he is also the person I am waiting for."

Although Ominis answered Tom's question, his unfocused white eyes were facing in the direction of Taowu.

"Master Tom, Miss Luna, it's time for Master Ominis to rest." Wendy interrupted their conversation.

"Okay, I'm sorry to disturb you, Mr. Gunter, thank you for informing me." Taowu pulled Tom out.

Taowu led Tom out of the mottled iron door, and the white-eyed man in the dim room put the holly wood wand into an exquisite wooden box.

She let out a long breath.

She knew he recognized it.
