The Witch's Bodyguard [Comprehensive Anglo-American]

Loki finally returned to Asgard, and Thor came down to pick him up, because the queen seemed to miss him very much.Before leaving, Loki handed the cane to Ma Linglong. He probably knew that this thing would not belong to him even if he took it back to Asgard, so he would rather give it to Ma Linglong.

Thor was furious about this.

So Ma Linglong made a bet with Thor. She suggested that Loki be on the throne for 30 days. If the evil god can last for a week, she will give him the stick unconditionally.

Loki kept Ma Linglong's wand intact, as if it had never been broken, and put it in a beautiful metal box. He hid the box in a corner of the villa and gave Ma Linglong a A rough map with the location of the boxes marked.It took her a lot of time to find the box, and Loki actually put it in the bathroom exhaust pipe.

Ma Linglong thought that Loki's elaborate arrangements would leave her with alien specialties from God's Domain, but she didn't realize that this was another prank by the evil god until Ma Linglong opened the box.

To be honest, when Ma Linglong saw her wand lying inside intact, her joy was replaced by shock. Ma Linglong couldn't guess how powerful Loki's mana was, so that he could be revived casually Life without a soul, including the recovery of the wand itself, seems to be an extremely easy thing to say from his mouth.

Loki's magic seems not to be restricted by any laws at all, maybe it's just not restricted by the laws of the earth, Ma Linglong is not sure, after all, he comes from the vast universe, millions or even tens of millions of light-years away from the earth, perhaps Not only that.But they can reach the earth in a very short time. In turn, neither magic nor technology on the earth can do this.

It shows that the backwardness of the people on earth cannot be caught up overnight.

Including magic.

Ma Linglong didn't know how Stark felt when he saw so many spaceships driven by high technology. They violated the laws of physics and acted as they wished.Anyway, Ma Linglong was a little jealous of Loki's magic, and she thought she would never be able to reach that step.

That's why Loki looks down on humans so much, and he's certainly entitled.

Ma Linglong's self-confidence was completely blown, which meant that she was alive not because she was stronger than Loki, but because Loki liked her.The evil god was just playing around with her in a joking manner from the beginning to the end, and never took it seriously. Ma Linglong, thinking this way, couldn't even get excited about the lost and recovered wand. 【Note】

A month later, Ma Linglong regained her mana, and she went to the Longbottom's house, which was a beautiful manor on the outskirts of England. The vegetation inside and outside the manor was trimmed neatly and cleanly.Neville's grandmother, Augusta.Longbottom (Augusta.Longbottom) warmly received Ma Linglong. It was an old woman in a green robe and a fox fur scarf, with a tall, inlaid A hat with a stuffed eagle looked to be her heaviest accessory.

When Ma Linglong saw this capable old man for the first time, he couldn't help but think of Snape. It wasn't that Neville's grandmother's appearance had any connection with Snape, but that it happened in Lupine's Defense Against the Dark Arts. Accidentally, there was a relationship between them.

Lupine trains the students' resilience with the "Boggart", a changeable monster that isn't very aggressive, but no one likes it, and a Boggart can take on whatever image it thinks best scares humans To put you in fear.

Neville was afraid of Snape, that was probably the person he feared very much at that time and even now, so the Boggart turned into Snape's appearance in front of Neville, both his expression and walking posture were lifelike.Neville was too scared to move, and Lupine guided him to imagine how he could make the fake thing before him less scary.

Neville's efforts paid off, and he wondered what Snape would look like in his grandmother's clothes.

For a while, the news spread throughout Hogwarts that Snape was wearing a skirt and a fox fur scarf. The Weasley twins were afraid that Ma Linglong would not sound satisfying, so they specially painted the picture of Snape wearing a granny's skirt by hand. Snape drew it on paper and showed it to her.

Therefore, when Ma Linglong saw Neville's grandmother herself, she naturally replayed the funny scene in her mind.

Of course she didn't laugh.

Mike was hit by several spells, but most of the injuries have been treated properly, the most serious of which is the Cruciatus Curse, which is why Barton said that there seems to be no external injuries, but the reason is extremely painful.The damage caused by the spell was concentrated on the bones and internal organs, while the Cruciatus Curse made Mike almost crazy.

Fortunately, the Spell Research Department of the Congress did not drive Mike crazy. They used some extreme methods to free him from torture, so even after such a long time, Mike was still very weak.In order to protect Barton, he faced the devastation of so many attacking spells head-on, and now, he was very lucky to be able to sit up with a smile on his face and greet Ma Linglong.

"I heard that the wizard participated in the battle against the aliens this time. How was the result? I mean, have the No-Majs discovered the existence of the wizard?" It takes a month to fully grow, and then there is still a long time to adapt.

"There is no exposure. S.H.I.E.L.D. has erased all images related to wizards, and most Muggles are focusing on Iron Man and Captain America." Ma Linglong said, "Didn't the wizard newspapers publish relevant content?"

"No." Mike said, "Whether it is the Magic Congress or the Ministry of Magic, they have blocked all news about aliens, are you surprised?"

"No." Ma Linglong walked to Mike's bedside. His beard grew all over his chin because he wasn't trimmed in time. Mike looked like a 40-year-old middle-aged homeless man.

The behavior of the magic government was expected by Ma Linglong. Although American wizards seem to be open, in fact, whenever there is an event that shakes the status of wizards, they try their best to refute rumors.Except for the wizards living in the Muggle world who learned the truth through the Muggle network, 90.00% of the wizards don't know that the earth almost fell into the hands of alien monsters.

But maybe, they don't care either.

"Is the one who attacked you a Chinese?" Ma Linglong asked, "I mean, who hurt you like this? Have you seen the murderer?"

"Chinese?" Mike thought for a while, "I didn't pay attention to whether they were Chinese, but I don't think it's useless to pay attention. They are wearing invisibility cloaks, and I can't see anything. The spell flew from a distance, I think they must have been in an ambush for a while, and a lot of agents died instantly."

"I'm sorry, Mike, if I catch the murderer, I will avenge you."

"It's not your fault, why apologize to me." Mike said, "Congress is investigating this matter, and I think there will be an answer soon." He took a deep breath, and then said briskly, "One thing is good , I have been away from the Longbottom family for more than ten years, and I finally came back, by the way, I can still take half a year of paid leave, which is not bad."

"Who will take over your job?"

"A new Auror, certainly not as good as me."

The two chatted late, and Mike told Ma Linglong the reason why he ran away from home, the rebellious period plus a little paranoia.During dinner, Neville's grandmother thought that Ma Linglong was Mike's girlfriend, but when she knew it was not, she looked very depressed.

Leaving Longbottom Manor, Ma Linglong decided to catch up with her old friends. She came to No. 12 Grimmauld Place alone. It was quite close to King's Cross Station, and she finally confirmed the location of Black Mansion.

It can't be blamed for Ma Linglong's uncertain hesitation towards a mansion. This house located in the Muggle world is actually not so recognizable.

Looking from across the street, there is only a scratched and painted black gate at that location, and behind it is a small dirty house, like a garbage dump that has been abandoned for a long time.If you are a wizard, then maybe you can also find a little distinctive detail, such as the silver doorknob.It is in the shape of a coiled snake. There is no keyhole on the door, which means that it can only be opened by magic. There are spells around the building to drive away Muggles, so no one wants to get close to this place.

The house in front of me was invisible to outsiders except wizards, and even the family of Muggles who lived next door for decades never knew that there was a mansion next door.

This manor located in the northwest of London, England, used to be inhabited by the most prosperous wizarding family in the entire European wizarding world. Ma Linglong had never been to Sirius' house before, because his family also despised pure-blood wizards outside the UK. , and Sirius was also disgusted with this idea of ​​​​his family at the time, until he finally broke with them completely.

Although the surname "Blake" still rings true today, it has now become rather in decline.

Ma Linglong stepped forward and pressed a bump that looked like a doorbell, but she didn't hear a sound like a "ding dong". She doubted whether such an ancient thing could work after so many years.She waited at the door for a long time, about 10 minutes. Just when Ma Linglong thought that Black Manor might be completely deserted and Sirius didn't live in it at all, the door opened, but she was not greeted by a familiar figure.

A house-elf with a dirty rag around his waist and almost naked appeared at the door. It seemed to be an elderly guy.The head is bald, with a mass of white hair growing around the two large bat-like ears, and the nose is very large.

"Another useless guy." The elf's voice was hoarse and deep, very unfriendly, "You'd better not come in, so as not to stain the carpet, wild girl."

Ma Linglong frowned, stepped in unceremoniously, and said to it: "The carpet is dirty enough, it means that you are not serious about your work, and you should be punished, where is your master?"

The older guy is called Kreacher. Like all house elves, he has served the Black family as a slave willingly for generations. Since the death of the mistress, he has been alone in the Black family mansion for 12 years. .As Ma Linglong said, Kreacher didn't take care of the house very much, and it also received some messy instructions from the portrait of the mistress hanging on the corridor, which exacerbated the mess of the house.

As for now, Kreacher has to serve the last descendant of the Black family. Although he hates his new master's return so much that he doesn't even feel guilty about it, Kreacher must obey and must not disobey Sirius' direct orders , which distorts the already abnormal character of the elves even more.

"Get out, dirty foreigner," Kreacher said through gritted teeth.

At this moment, Sirius appeared from the end of the corridor, he scolded, and then quickly ran forward and kicked Kreacher: "Go back to your hole!"

Cursing, Kreacher walked back to where he slept.

"I really don't know what to say." Sirius gave Kreacher a disgusted look, and he really wanted to wring its neck immediately, "You don't care about it, you..." He was very embarrassed, and even a little worried about Ma Ling Long would hate himself for being a house-elf, nervously overwhelmed, "How did you find this place?"

"You gave me the address before, when you were in the fifth grade." Ma Linglong said, "I thought, we haven't chatted for a long time, so I brought some food and butter beer over."

Sirius once planned to invite Ma Linglong to his house as a guest, but his mother and other relatives strongly opposed a foreigner's visit, which made the rebellious boy hate this house even more.At that time, Sirius was ready to express his heart to Ma Linglong, but he missed the best time.

"You remember after so long?" Sirius said in surprise.

"You're not going to let me in?" Ma Linglong said, "I hope you've noticed that it's starting to rain."

"Of course, come in, I was just now researching how to make butter cookies!"

This was the first time Ma Linglong set foot in the house that Sirius had disliked for decades, and of course he also disliked it now, but he had to live here.

All the ornaments in the house seemed unable to move, they were spelled to stay in place forever, especially just now, when they walked up a staircase, the paintings on the wall were all portraits of the ancestors of the Black family, Ma Linglong Accidentally came across one of them.It was the face of a lady, and that face suddenly became ferocious. She glared at Ma Linglong, and then started to yell.A rather nasty scream filled the house, she cast meaningless curses at Ma Linglong one after another, and then all the portraits uttered the same piercing screams until she and Sirius left the place completely.

Afterwards, Ma Linglong found out that the first person to scream was Sirius' mother.

Sirius's life is not good, at least in Ma Linglong's eyes, even if the inheritance he got can be used for his whole life.It could be seen that he was very depressed, and he wasn't even over half happy that he had been exonerated. Ma Linglong couldn't tell whether he was worried about the death of the Potters or whether this place was really not suitable for living.

Maybe both, but at present, the latter should be the majority.

Sirius has no feelings for this family, everything will only remind him of the family he hates, and the cursed paintings and decorations can only stay in that place, he wants to change the furnishings in the house Neither can.

"Come to New York." Ma Linglong said to Sirius, "Believe me, the residence you live in is very big, even bigger than here, as long as you get used to those gadgets, you will find it more convenient than living as a wizard .”

"Thank you for your kindness," said Sirius.

"us?"

"Anthony made the same invitation as you, but you see, I'm back, I have to take care of this house, and I'm the only one here." Sirius said against his will, "And Kreacher, you see, That useless piece of junk will make a mess of the house, and what you see now is what I cleaned up."

He would love to be in a place with Stark and Ma Linglong, but he can't do that. He likes Ma Linglong and Stark equally, and he can't face the scene of the two of them making out.Not because of jealousy, Sirius knew very well that he was happy when he saw them happy.

But that feeling can't be considered good.

"Why didn't Lupine move in with you?" Ma Linglong never understood Sirius' feelings for her.

"He went to India." Sirius said, "That green guy seems to have told Remus something. He went to India to find a plant. He heard that it can suppress the pain caused by werewolf transformation." After the battle in New York, little Sirius seemed to adapt to the fast-paced life of Muggles, which was completely different from the Muggle world in his impression, "Why didn't Anthony come with you, and what new gadget did he invent?"

Looking at the man's slightly distressed face, Ma Linglong said, "Don't think of Stark as Potter, it's meaningless, I understand how you feel, but they are two people after all."

"I didn't..." Sirius tapped and hesitated, "They do have the same place."

Ma Linglong knew what Sirius was thinking. He felt very guilty towards James Potter. He once lost his friends and lost his freedom. When he returned to the original place again, he met James Potter. Very similar, it was hard for Sirius not to put all his energy on it.

Rather than saying that Sirius agrees with all of Stark's views, it is better to say that he just put his mind on Stark when he treated James.

Sirius stood up with a guilty conscience: "I think, I mean, I found something." He said, "I have something to give you, it's a gift, when the inheritance was counted a few weeks ago, in Guling I found it in the gold cabinet in the pavilion, wait for me for a while."

It was a necklace. To be precise, it was a necklace composed of a thumb-sized ruby ​​and a pure gold chain. It was very valuable.

Sirius brought it in front of Ma Linglong without any packaging, as if it was just a leather cord: "I think it's new, it hasn't been used, I swear it's the biggest ruby ​​I can find." He concealed his inner emotions, pretending to be casual and said, "It's useless to me anyway, take it if you like."

Ma Linglong didn't take it immediately, but said, "Is this how you give the girl a present?"

"What's wrong?" said Sirius.

"You should put it in a beautiful box or pocket, and then surprise her." Ma Linglong felt amused and still took it, but looking at the old style of the necklace, to be honest, she would probably be the same after 20 years. It won't be worn around the neck, maybe she should consider buckling the gemstones, "Doing this can turn humble things into priceless things, and you will only turn priceless things into plastic toys."

"I'm not pursuing you, there's no need to bother." Sirius said sadly, and then he immediately changed the subject, "That Rogers, do you know, did Anthony tell you what happened after you passed out? "

Ma Linglong said: "I know, you guys fought, but you never won him."

"I didn't mean to say that." Sirius said angrily, "Stark almost couldn't come back, it was all because of him."

The author has something to say: Yes, the next one will be the captain, the author will add superhero scenes, including Wonder Woman, don't be surprised, the author will perfectly integrate those seemingly completely irrelevant themes, say love me !

[Note]: The author here wants to express that he also sees powerful magic that does not follow the laws of nature at all. Although Linglong is a bit jealous, she will not treat it as a great thing to make herself unhappy all the time.

Sirius' feelings for Linglong are pure liking, similar to the feeling of first love.

The next chapter preview: Linglong visited the captain's house and planned to fulfill her original promise, but something very unpleasant happened
