Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 2 Notice from Magic School

Moon had already grasped the wood carving knife in his hand. He now vaguely regretted not bringing his slingshot with him, as that was his weapon to fight against animals that stole hazelnuts.

However, even if you have a slingshot and a knife in your hand, they may not be of much use.

Moon didn't think he could defeat a cat with five bars, even if the other party was the same size as an ordinary cat.

But he couldn't escape, because Bengbeng was still in the bridge hole, and he didn't know whether the cat liked to eat the black-haired, long-nosed beast with a collecting habit.

The tabby cat also noticed Moon's abnormality, blinked its checkered eyes, and walked closer to him with elegant steps.

Moon took two steps back unconsciously.

"It seems that you do have wizard talent."

The tabby cat spoke!

And after he finished speaking, he turned into a person!

A woman wearing a black robe, a tall pointed hat, and a very serious expression.

Seeing such a bizarre scene, Moon reached out to hold the stone pillar next to him. He tried hard to control his body from retreating, because the Regent River was behind him.

"Don't be afraid, child. I just came to ask why you didn't answer my letter."

"Letter, what letter?"

"An acceptance letter from Hogwarts. Don't tell me you didn't receive it. I don't want another family like the Dursleys to appear this year!"

Hearing the other party's reminder, Moon suddenly remembered that he had indeed received a strange letter ten days ago.

A letter delivered by an owl, but he thought it was a prank. After all, he didn't know anyone in this world.

He also opened the letter, but he could not recognize some of the words on it. After reading it roughly, he casually put the letter in the bridge arch.

"This one. This one."

Moon was still a little nervous. He had never seen a woman with such a serious expression.

"You can call me Professor McGonagall."

"Um, well, Professor McGonagall, you said that was an acceptance letter?"

"Yes, an acceptance letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

Magic school!

After hearing these four words, Moon opened his mouth in surprise, and then he quickly went back into the bridge hole without saying a word.

Mag was also startled by Moon's sudden action.

"Slow down, kid!"

If being called a "half-baked psychic" for four years changed Moon, then the biggest change was Moon's determination to prove that he was not half-baked.

Now the tabby cat can talk, has turned into a human, and has an acceptance letter from the magic school.
Moon knew this was his last chance and he had to seize it.

"Please wait for me a moment, Professor!"

Moon's words came from the bridge arch, followed by the sound of rummaging through boxes.

But soon, he came out holding a parchment envelope.

"Found it! This is it."

Moon held up the envelope and smiled happily at Mag, as if he was holding something more important than his life.

Glancing down at the emerald green ink marks and the unique Hogwarts school emblem on the envelope, McGonagall nodded.

"Yes, I saw you opened the letter. Why didn't you reply?"

“I don’t recognize some of the words.”

Moon's voice was very low, and his expression was embarrassed as if he had made a serious mistake.

"I really don't know what these Muggles are doing. They let a child wander around alone and not receive any education."

McGonagall was about to complain about the lack of Muggle administration, but then she seemed to have thought of something and her expression became unnatural.

"Okay, kid, I'll read it to you."

Taking the envelope from Moon, Mag cleared his throat:
West End

Regent's Park
Regent Bridge Arch

Mr. Moon Scarlett

McGonagall first read the address on the envelope. She wanted Moon to know that the Hogwarts notice would not be sent to the wrong place.

Then she quickly opened the letter and read:

Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Albus Dumbledore

(President of the International Confederation of Wizards, First-Class Grand Magician of the Order of Merlin, and Chief Magician of the Wizengamot)

Dear Mr. Scarlett,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Attached is a list of required books and equipment.

The semester is scheduled to begin on September 1st. We will be waiting for your owl to bring your reply before July 31st.

Vice-Chancellor

Sincerely, Minerva McGonagall

"Okay, now that you know the contents of the letter, Mr. Scarlett, do you choose to attend Hogwarts?"

So this was what the words on the letter meant. Before Moon could react, Mag spoke again.

"Of course, if you choose not to go to Hogwarts, I can also recommend you to go to other schools, such as Beauxbatons or Durmstrang."

"No, no! I'll go." Moon quickly waved his hand and looked at Mag.

"Well, on behalf of Hogwarts, I welcome you, son."

"But, Professor McGonagall, how do we get to Hogwarts? And how much does the school charge?"

Learning magic in Xilin required a hefty tuition fee. Uncle Neil had initially worried about not being able to afford it, but that hadn't happened in the past. Now that he was going to Hogwarts, Moon asked directly: "I don't know if the money I've saved for two months is enough to support my magic studies."

"To go to Hogwarts, you must go to London King's Cross Station on September 9st and take the o'clock train from Platform . As for tuition, food and accommodation, they are all free, but you need to buy everything on this shopping list yourself."

McGonagall handed Moon the list of school supplies and books in the letter.

"

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
〔uniform〕

First-year students need:
1. Three sets of plain robe school uniforms (black)
2. A plain peaked hat for daytime wear (black)
All students are required to prepare the following books:

Standard Spells, Elementary, by Miranda Gorshak

A History of Magic, by Bathilda Bagshot

[Other equipment]

a wand

One crucible (pewter, standard size 2)
Students may bring an owl or a cat or a toad.

Parents are particularly reminded that first-year students are not allowed to bring their own broomsticks.
"

Moon needs to connect the context to figure out the meaning of some of the words on the table.

However, looking at the length of the form and the densely packed text, Moon knew the cost would be considerable.

While Moon was looking at the shopping list worriedly, Mag looked around at the terrible living conditions here.

"Professor McGonagall, where can I buy these things?"

Moon had no idea what shop would sell these things; he had never seen one near Regent's Park.

"These are going to Diagon Alley, the most prosperous shopping street in the entire wizarding world. Here is a shopping guide and a ticket to Hogwarts."

As Mag spoke, two pieces of yellow parchment, one large and one small, flew out from her black robe and landed steadily in Moon's hands.

Moon was once again attracted by the charm of magic.

"Of course, Mr. Scarlett, if you agree, the school actually does provide subsidies."

Just as Mag was halfway through his words, a gray and white owl suddenly flew down from a distance and landed on a stone pillar.

"Oh, sorry."

As Mag spoke, he skillfully untied a letter from the owl's leg, touched its head, and the owl flew away.

After opening the letter and reading it quickly, Moon noticed that Mag's expression had become noticeably grim.

"How could this happen? The Dursleys actually moved to a deserted island. I guess I need to have a good talk with Dumbledore."

Mag clutched the letter tightly and looked at Moon. "Child, if you need anything later, remember to send an owl to me."

After saying that, Mag muttered something and then disappeared from the spot.

When Moon reacted, all he saw was the empty river. He hurried to the stone pillar and shouted.

"Professor, but I don't have an owl~"

Moon's voice was loud, and he hoped that Professor McGonagall was still there and could hear him.

But after waiting for half an hour, he had no choice but to return to the bridge tunnel.

Although Professor McGonagall left in a hurry before she finished speaking, Moon did not feel disappointed at all.

Bengbeng also heard the sound of Moon coming back and crawled out of the hole in the wall.

"Chi?" (a sound)
"Yes, there are delicious foods today, but Pengpeng, I have good news for you. We are going to Hogwarts to learn magic!"

"Chi?" (Second tone)

"Of course it's true. To celebrate, I even bought you some dried mealworms."

"Chi~" (three sounds)

"I will definitely be the best for you, but you need to buy some necessary school supplies to study at Hogwarts."

"Haw!"

"Bengbeng, this is your fault. I earned that money, and I also brought you a gift."

Moon said as he took out a magic wand toy with a star on the head and some sparkling sequins on it from the cloth bag.

This was picked up by Moon at the zoo entrance. From the first moment he saw the toy, he knew that Bongbong would definitely like it.

Sure enough, after seeing the toy in Moon's hand, Bongbong's small eyes lit up instantly.

It crawled up Moon's clothes, trying to grab the toy.

However, Moon's speed in changing hands back and forth was much faster than it could crawl.

"No, you have to take out those pennies."

Seeing that Moon was determined, he reluctantly returned to the cave and began to carry the yellow pennies out.

“Not enough!”

"It's not enough!"

Moon didn't know how many times he shouted until Bengbeng was shouting and protesting at the hole in the wall. Then he handed the magic wand toy in his hand to the other party.

But before handing it over, he turned on the switch on the magic wand.

Click.

The magic wand became brighter and Bengbeng became happier.

Moon weighed the bag and found that the coins were still a little light.
