Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 428 Death is another great adventure...

"Have you noticed that things get boring again when Wade's not around?"

In the moving castle, Miravia was wiping her wand boredly.

Nagini hesitated and said, "Teacher... Vader just had a few days off... Why didn't you say he was bored when he was in school before?"

"I..." Miravia paused for a moment, then defended herself, "That's because the moving castle was always moving before, but now it can only stay here and can't go anywhere."

"Really?" Nagini looked at her teacher suspiciously, "But..."

"Okay, okay, don't say buts. I'm bored now anyway!" Miravia interrupted Nagini's question.

"Okay... so what do you plan to do to keep yourself from being so bored?" Nagini took the initiative to change the subject.

"Well..." Miravia asked, "What do you think?"

"Vade went to visit Mr. Flamel. Given his personality, he will probably stay for a long time. So...how about we go for a walk outside again?" Nagini asked hesitantly.

"There's nothing to see outside." Miravia waved her hand in boredom.

There were traces of war everywhere. What was there to see? Miravia had come back early because of this.

"We can't go find Wade, can we? But we don't know Mr. Flamel's address. Even if we did, he didn't invite us, and it would be rude to just show up at his house." Nagini said.

"Forget it." Miravia stood up, "I'd better go to work."

"Go to work?" Nagini looked at Miravia in surprise.

Although my teacher is now in the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic, oh... so am I.

But after moving to the moving castle, I never went to work again. Why do you suddenly remember to go to work now?

"There are still many interesting things in the Department of Mysteries. I'll go take a look." Miravia smiled. "Will you go?"

"I……"

"Forget it, you stay. I'm just bored. I can't drag you along with me on everything." After Miravia said that, she immediately took action and left the castle ten minutes later.

Nagini stood at the castle gate, watching Miravia Apparate away, and couldn't help but sigh softly. Her teacher was truly decisive. No matter what she wanted to do, she would do it immediately...

It’s not that Nagini is unwilling to accompany her teacher to “work”, it’s just that she has something else to do.

Earlier, in order to prevent himself from not being able to return in time, Levid asked her to go to Diagon Alley and buy some school supplies for the three little Tom cats.

If she followed Miravia, she wouldn't be able to manage her time and wouldn't know how long she would have to stay in the Ministry.

After all, Miravia is more casual than Li Weide...

……

"Ah... I see. This design is very interesting. I had the same idea, but I achieved it in a different way. Let me show you..."

"Really? Will it be a big hassle for you?"

"No, no, I also want to show off my own little ingenuity to you!"

Nicolas Flamel was now happily chatting with Levid around the car.

Not far away, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the center of the garden, seemed to have been forgotten.

However, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Levid and Nicolas Flamel having a good conversation was exactly what he wanted to see.

"Albus, Nico is like this, please don't be offended."

At this time, another old man who had been reading with Nicolas Flamel poured Dumbledore another glass of honey water.

This is a very old witch, the wife of Nicolas Flamel - Perenelle Flamel.

Like Nicolas Flamel, she lived for at least six hundred years.

"No, why should I mind? This is why I came here." Dumbledore smiled.

Perenelle smiled and said, "This little fellow you brought is quite good. The last time I saw Nicol this happy was when you first came to visit. You were about the same age then..."

"I was much older than Wade at that time, and I was still far inferior to him at his age," Dumbledore sighed.

"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the young man back then has changed so much. His beard has grown so long." Perenel sat down carefully, looking in the direction of Levid, just like he looked at the young Dumbledore back then.

Dumbledore couldn't help but stroke his long beard, "Yes, time flies..."

"Albus, do you think immortality is a good thing?" Perenelle suddenly asked.

Dumbledore thought for a moment, then replied, "Immortality is not a good thing, but longevity is."

"Oh? Why?" Perenelle asked curiously.

"To live forever means you have to witness your loved ones and friends passing away one by one, time and again, never to see them again..."

Although Dumbledore didn't finish his words, Perenelle knew what he meant.

"Yeah... you're right. Over the years, Nico and I have attended countless funerals of friends... Afterwards, we were afraid to make new friends."

After Perenelle finished speaking, he remained silent for a long moment before continuing, "If immortality is not a good thing, then why is longevity a good thing?"

Dumbledore smiled and said, "Longevity simply means living longer. Ultimately, it simply means embarking on that path later than all of your relatives and friends... In other words, we will all meet again in another world one day. Therefore, we can fully experience all the interesting things in this world before we take that step."

"That's what's so great about you, Albus," Perenelle exclaimed. "You don't fear death... you just see it as the end of life."

"To me, death is another great adventure... We will embark on this journey after we complete this one." Dumbledore smiled.

Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel were indeed close friends, so they did not hide anything when talking.

Nicolas Flamel and his wife lived for a long time thanks to the Philosopher's Stone, but if it were Dumbledore, he would not choose to live like this.

Just see what you want to see and experience what you want to experience in this world.

He could then embark on that great adventure without regrets and reunite with his lost relatives and friends.

Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t experience it all. After all, it’s impossible for everything to go as you wish, so it’s not surprising to have some regrets.

However, everyone has his own way of living, and he respects the lifestyle of Nicolas Flamel and his wife.

Likewise, Perenelle admired Dumbledore's free and easy attitude.

In fact, her thoughts were more inclined towards Dumbledore. If she didn't want to let her husband stay alone in this world, she wouldn't continue to drink the elixir and live forever.

She was well aware of Nicolas Flamel's pursuit of alchemy. Perhaps... when Nicolas Flamel reached the peak he wanted to reach, it would be time for them to leave this world.

...The Moving Castle.

"Are you ready? Let's go buy some necessities first. Oh, and before Wade left, he left a list of books that you all must read. Let's go buy them now."

Nagini said, standing in the doorway, holding a list.

Beside her, Tom Cat and Spike were each carrying a large box.

As for Jerry, he jumped onto her shoulders.

"Tom, Spike, there's no need to bring such a big box. We can ask the clerk to help us send the goods back." Nagini helplessly asked the two little guys to put down the big box.

Tom put the box down and made a wand-waving motion.

"You want to buy a wand? Sorry, we are not going to buy wands this time. As you know, your situation is a little special, and Wade wants to take you there personally." Nagini patiently explained to the three little guys.

Tom and the others looked disappointed, but they immediately became excited at the thought of going to Diagon Alley.

"Okay, take my hand," said Nagini.

Tom and Spike each stretched out a paw to grab one of Nagini's hands, while Jerry lay on Nagini's shoulders, holding her wizard robe tightly.

“Whoosh! Bang!”

By the time they opened their eyes, they had already Apparated to Diagon Alley.

"Okay, let's go buy some herbs first... These are for your Potions class later. Oh, and I think you need to buy school uniforms too..."

The three little guys became excited immediately after hearing this. They had always been naked... but they didn't expect that they could all wear clothes now!
Nagini seemed to notice their excitement. "Well, in addition to the school uniforms, I'll buy each of you a few more sets of clothes for everyday wear."

As soon as these words came out, Tom was so excited that he started tap dancing.

Nagini studied their bodies carefully, and she was hesitating whether to buy them a pair of shoes... because she didn't know whether these three little guys needed to wear shoes.

If wearing shoes is inconvenient, it is better not to wear them. After all, they are not human wizards, and they cannot do everything according to human standards.

In the following time, Nagini took the three little ones to visit the shops in Diagon Alley.

Since all kinds of strange things happen in the wizarding world, other wizards were not too surprised when they saw these three animals that were completely different from ordinary cats, dogs and mice.

However, I was still shocked when I heard that these three children could only go to school at Hogwarts.

Buying other things went smoothly, but I encountered difficulties when buying clothes.

"I have to tailor it for them." Mr. Mokin said, stroking his mustache and looking at the three little ones in front of him.

"Tailor-made?"

"Yes, after all, all the clothes here are worn by human wizards... Oh, no offense, what I mean is that I have never seen an animal wizard before, so I don't have any in stock and have to make them now." Mr. Mojin looked at the three animal wizards with interest.

"Well, how long will this take?" Nagini asked.

"With my skills, this is very simple... Um, customer, you just said that the admission of these three people has received special permission from Professor Dumbledore, right?"

"Yes." Nagini nodded.

"That's not surprising." Mr. Mokin smiled.

Anything related to Dumbledore is not surprising.

Two years ago, a half-goblin and a half-giant were enrolled, and that was all allowed by Dumbledore. Now it is normal to allow three animal wizards to enroll.

"Okay." Mr. Malkin took out a thick book and placed it in front of the three little ones. "I'll measure you first, and you can take a look at the clothing styles here. After all, in addition to school uniforms, you still need to buy a few sets of clothes for daily use, right?"

Nagini nodded, took out a purse from her pocket and handed it to Tom Cat.

"You guys make the clothes here first. I'll go buy the other things. I'll be back soon."

The three little ones nodded at the same time.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of them." Mr. Mokin said with a smile.

Nagini nodded, put some of the new things in her hands on a chair beside her, and left Mr. Malkin's clothing store.

Mr. Mokin's skills are very advanced, and with the help of magic, his speed is extremely fast.

The three little ones didn't have to wait long before three sets of school uniforms of different sizes were made.

The three little ones immediately changed into their school uniforms, then crowded in front of a mirror and looked at their outfits at the same time.

"Well... because you are small in size, I didn't use much cloth, so I decided to give you a 50% discount on this order. Oh, I have to say, this is the first time I make clothes for animal wizards, and it's really a rare experience." Mr. Mokin smiled.

The three little ones were naturally happy to get a discount.

Next, they showed Mr. Mokin the clothing styles they had chosen, and then Mr. Mokin got back to work.

However, Tom Cat soon discovered that something was wrong, because Nagini, who had said she would be back soon, had not come back yet...

Tom Cat gestured to his two little friends and said he wanted to go out and look for Nagini.

However, Spike stopped him. Spike pointed to his nose, then pointed outside the door and left Mr. Malkin's clothing store.

Spike's meaning was simple: the dog had a keen sense of smell, so he was more suitable than Tom to find someone.

After Spike left the clothing store, he sniffed hard at the lingering smell in the air.

Soon, with the dog's gifted sense of smell, he quickly identified the smell of Nagini among many other smells.

After determining the direction, Spike immediately ran in the right direction.

Spike ran on all fours very fast. Following the smell, he crossed almost the entire Diagon Alley and stopped in front of the wall of the patio of the Leaky Cauldron.

Spike waited for a long time before a wizard left.

So Spike immediately followed and successfully arrived at the Leaky Cauldron.

The smells in the Leaky Cauldron were more mixed, but Spike could still distinguish the scent of Nagini. The magical animal nutrient solution strengthened his body while also strengthening his innate skills.

He lowered his head and, like a normal dog, followed the smell and slipped out of the Leaky Cauldron into the Muggle world.

Spike was very surprised. Nagini had actually left Diagon Alley?

This is unreasonable!
The three of them are still in Diagon Alley. How could Nagini, who promised to be back soon, just leave Diagon Alley?
And… after leaving Diagon Alley, the scent of Nagini disappeared into a secluded alley…
