Hogwarts in the shadows

The Chinese food cooked by Vanasha is very authentic.

Especially the dish “Farewell My Concubine”, it smells so good.

Although the pot is full of Chinese medicinal materials, the whole dish is extremely delicious in both texture and taste.

It is really delicious, but the risks are also huge.

The little goblin is really messing around. Soft-shelled turtle and black chicken are nutritious enough in themselves.

She also added dozens of Chinese medicinal herbs such as ginseng, wolfberry, cornus officinalis, oriental water chestnut, and poria cocos to boil together.

In other words, Hephis's physical fitness is now dozens of times better than that of an ordinary person, otherwise he would be half dead after drinking this pot of soup.

Vanasa served him bowl after bowl of soup, her watery eyes full of anticipation.

As long as he dared to hesitate, Vanasa would look at him affectionately with her eyes, making it impossible for him to refuse.

In the end, Hephis had no choice but to drink the whole pot of soup.

After dinner, he ran away in the face of Vanasha's resentful and dissatisfied eyes.

The main thing is that this little devil is getting more and more outrageous.

She refused to eat and had to sit on his lap, rubbing against him, making him feel very uncomfortable.

For the next two days, Hephis didn't dare to go to Vanasa again.

Finally, at Rice's urging, he took Rice to Vanasa's home again.

Fortunately, Vanasha knew how to restrain herself when there were outsiders around and didn't do anything strange.

But her resentful look never left Hephes.

Hephis felt somewhat helpless, but he really had no way to deal with her.

He could only simply explain the matter to Vanasa and then dropped Rice off at Vanasa's house.

He simply used Apparition to run away.

Of course, the wizard's suitcase was also handed over to Vanasa by Rice.

Theodore finally heard back from someone after disappearing for a year. His second blood awakening was finally successful.

"Master." He saluted Hephes respectfully.

At this time, Theodore is no longer the young boy, but a mature and handsome adult.

He had long green hair and was over six feet tall.

If he hadn't told him about the shadow, Hephis really wouldn't have dared to recognize him.

"Are you taking hormones? How come you grow so fast?" Hephis asked curiously.

"Uh..." Theodore was stunned. After not seeing him for a year, he was a little unaccustomed to the way Hephis spoke.

"My case should be considered a special case." He paused and continued.

"Although the second awakening of blood is rare, there are many records. It is usually triggered after adulthood for some reason. It may be because I awakened for the second time before I reached adulthood, so my body also grew with it."

Hephis raised his lips and said, "So you have shortened your life, right?"

"My blood originally comes from the flower fairies, so my lifespan has increased a lot." Theodore replied with a smile.

"Not bad, you can laugh now." Hephis teased, "You're back just in time."

He continued to explain, "I just received a reply from Lucius. He is ready. Come with me tonight to capture Azkaban."

"Yes, master." Theodore said seriously.

The night gradually darkened, and Hephaestus brought Theodore to a lonely island on the edge of the North Sea.

This is the closest island to Azkaban, and they will meet Lucius here.

The island was tightly wrapped in thick fog and surrounded by endless icy cold sea water.

With the arrival of Hephaestus, Lucius also slowly walked out from behind the tree.

He was wearing a black hood and a black mask, and behind him were a dozen people dressed the same as him.

"Hephis, you are finally here."

Hephis bowed slightly, "Lucius, thank you for your help."

Lucius waved his hand. "It's not a problem. I just didn't expect you to be so bold."

He turned slightly and pointed at the men in black behind him.

"They have all signed the strictest confidentiality agreement and will not leak any information."

Hephis nodded, "I will definitely trust you to do the job."

Lucius took a deep breath, his eyes solemn.

"The Department of Magical Law Enforcement's surveillance system will malfunction in twenty minutes, and the repair time will be approximately thirty minutes. So you'd better resolve the situation on the island within twenty minutes."

A sharp light flashed in Hephis's eyes, "Don't worry! I'm sure."

"This is our communication tool. As long as it turns green, it's the signal to take action."

Lucius pulled a coin from his pocket, about the size of a Galleon, and handed it to Hephaestus.

Hephis took the coin and gently turned it between his fingers, "I will take you to the designated location, and then the action will begin."

Lucius nodded.

The other dozen wizards also clenched their wands, waiting to be teleported by Hephis.

Hephis opened the portals for Lucius and others one by one according to the points marked on the map.

They were sent one by one to the island where Azkaban was located.

Azkaban, a prison heavily guarded by Dementors, is also surrounded by powerful alarm magic.

Anyone entering this area without permission from the Ministry of Magic will immediately trigger the alarm.

The Aurors and Dementors on the island would be alerted immediately, and the Department of Magical Law Enforcement would also receive the news as soon as possible.

There are a large number of Portkeys in the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, which allow Aurors to quickly gather in Azkaban.

The reason why Hephis needed Lucius' help was because of this alarm magic.

He could indeed force his way into Azkaban, but that would undoubtedly expose himself.

And maintaining the operation of Azkaban is a very troublesome task.

Hephis' idea was that Azkaban belonged to him, but everything was still run by the Ministry of Magic.

He just regarded this place as a place provided by shadows.

Therefore, he arranged for Lucius to find dozens of people at specific positions to cast powerful shielding magic.

Temporarily paralyzing Azkaban's alarm system.

In this way, even if Hephis caused a big commotion on the island, the Ministry of Magic would not notice it.

A yellow light instantly lit up on the communication coin, indicating that they had already started taking action.

In less than three minutes, the coin turned green again.

The eight black figures that Hephis had separated in advance also took quick action.

They headed straight for the hut on the island where the Aurors from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement were stationed.

In that hut, there is an alchemical item that can automatically generate a patronus.

Therefore, the Aurors stationed here habitually choose to spend most of their time in the cabin and rarely go out.
