Chapter 359 Unlucky Neville

The third day after returning from the humble abode.

The new semester is about to begin.

Moon had to return to Hogwarts.

Before leaving, he handed the shop keys to Lu Ping for safekeeping.

Through these two months of testing, the wizard has completely exceeded Moon's expectations.

Lupin had a thorough understanding of all the products in the shop.

He could readily list several advantages of magical products from another world.

Moreover, in addition to working as a shop assistant, Lupin also served as a bodyguard, warehouse manager, and even a chef.

Lupin was able to fulfill all these responsibilities, and Moon's trust in him grew stronger.

With Dumbledore's guarantee, Moon felt comfortable handing over the management rights of the shop to him.

Now that his probationary period is over, Lupin's salary has increased to 30 Galleons per week.

Moon even promised to let him buy items in the store at a 7% discount.

However, this wizard was not interested in anything new or unusual.

On the contrary, Lupin would often spend his wages to buy one or two bottles of potions made by Snape, whom he disliked.

Moon didn't investigate the potion's whereabouts in detail; he knew everyone had secrets.

As for the trading company Moon established in the Muggle world, he entrusted it entirely to Gaia to handle.

During the summer vacation, he would check the company's relevant accounts every month.

Now that he's started school, this task has naturally been handed over to Lu Ping.

However, Gaia did not disappoint Moon.

During those two months, he not only secured another batch of drilling rigs, but he also found an agricultural machinery company and bought several large seeding machines.

Moon plans to transport the machines to Star Ember Island after returning from Serene Blue City.

"Okay, just send it here."

On the first day of school, Gaia drove Moon to King's Cross train station.

This was the first time he had learned that his boss was studying at a closed, elite private school.

"Boss, let me help you carry your luggage inside."

Seeing Gaia push a small cart over, Moon took it without hesitation.

"Don't worry, I can handle all of these things."

"Okay, please be careful on your journey. I will definitely keep an eye on the company for you. Also, if you have any requests, you can have the owl deliver them."

During those two months, Gaia's requested phone call never came.

However, he has already accepted the method of sending messages by owls.

"Don't worry, but the next time you'll be notified, it might be by a different owl. You should keep a close eye on the area around the warehouse."

Squeak has already been left with Gold by Moon.

Now, if he wants to deliver a message, he can only temporarily rent an owl from the school's owl shed.

Avoiding the bustling crowds, I once again passed through the familiar Platform 9¾.

Moon then saw the red express train.

Upon discovering that some students had already boarded the train, Moon followed without hesitation.

After finding a reasonably comfortable seat and putting his luggage away, Moon sat in the innermost seat and leisurely began reading his magic book.

The books he borrowed from the Malfoy family were very valuable and contained profound content.

Especially the part about spatial magic, even though Moon had read it through once, there were still some parts he couldn't understand.

In addition, Moon cannot freely use magic during the summer vacation.

This kept his understanding of spatial magic superficial.

Now that he's on the Hogwarts Express, Moon can confidently take out his wand and conduct experiments on board.

This is the only place in Muggle territory where you can perform magic outside of school.

Just as Moon was testing the new spell with his wand, Hermione boarded the train and walked over.

"Where are Harry and Ron? Aren't they with you?"

After helping Hermione put her luggage on the luggage rack, Moon sat back down.

"Oh, Harry is visiting Ron's house. Mrs. Weasley promised to send her to school, so she's probably with the twins now."

Hearing Moon's explanation, Hermione nodded dismissively.

She was well aware that the twins must have come up with a lot of new gadgets during the summer vacation.

Harry and his friends must have been captivated again.

"What kind of magic is this? I don't remember it at all!"

Watching Moon wave his wand, Hermione glanced at the spellbooks on the table.

Spatial Folds and Secrets

"What a strange name. Is this the book you borrowed from the Malfoys?"

Moon nodded.

He knew that the little witch must have overheard his conversation with Lucius that day.

However, Hermione's attention was focused on Lockhart that day, so she didn't ask about it.

"That's right, it's still a bit difficult to cast spatial magic."

Actually, when reading these books...

Moon gradually realized that the strength of a wizarding family was not simply a matter of the wealth they possessed.

Influence and magical heritage are also very important.

These precious magic books are actually one of the important inheritances of wizarding families.

After reading all these books, Moon is now completely confused about the Malfoy family's attitude towards him.
Was he trying to help Voldemort steal his secrets? Or did he have some other motive?

Moon hadn't seen it clearly yet.

Seeing that Moon was practicing his spells, Hermione stopped bothering him.

She quietly took out a book and sat down opposite her to read it.

A short while later, Seamus and Neville also came over, dragging heavy suitcases.

After exchanging greetings, they began to share their experiences during the summer vacation.

Seamus kept bragging that his father had taken him to see the European Championship. "You guys don't know, England has now formed a Premier League, we're sure to win the European Championship next time!"

Neville recounted how he helped his grandmother with some interesting farm work during the summer vacation.

To keep Raphael from being lonely, he even kept a large group of toads in his pond.

“I found some new friends for Laifu, so it will definitely not be lonely anymore, but it still needs to keep me company when I go to school.”

Looking at Neville, who was no longer worried about Rafe getting lost.

Moon felt that the young wizard had completely misunderstood.

Leif will definitely escape from Hogwarts again.

Because he had overheard Lai Fu and Beng Beng's conversation.

"Croak~" (That two-legged beast is so hateful; he actually tore my family apart.)
As Lai Fu spoke, tears streamed down her face.

Beng Beng had clearly never encountered such a situation before, and kept patting Lai Fu's head to comfort him.

Then he turned to look at Moon, trying to find a solution.

But this proved to be a difficult problem for Moon.

According to what Lai Fu just said, all the toads Na Wei raised were female.

So Neville essentially found eight wives for Raph, and they've already had two litters of babies.

Ultimately, they stood on the side of justice and helped Lai Fu return to her family.

Moon couldn't decide for a long time whether to tell Neville the cruel truth.

However, one thing is certain: Hogwarts will definitely stage another year of "Neville searching for the toad".

After sharing their summer vacation stories, the young wizards gradually became captivated by the magic in Moon's hands.

"Is this a revealing spell?"

Neville recognized the spell Moon had cast at a glance.

Because he often lost things, his grandmother would use this spell to help him find them.

"That's right, the book says this is a spell that you must master to learn spatial magic."

In fact, Moon hadn't initially considered the connection between the Manifestation Spell and spatial magic.

However, after reading in the book that the essence of spatial magic is "here-there", he gradually came to understand this point.

Only by mastering the [Mantra of Manifestation] can one perceive the meaning of that place.

Upon hearing the words "spatial magic," Seamus and Neville's eyes lit up.

After a year of exposure to Hogwarts, they knew very well that this spell could only be learned by older students.

Even though they are about to enter the second grade, they still have no way to have contact with them.

Seeing that Moon was practicing ahead of time, I naturally felt a little envious.

"How far have you progressed in your training? Can you let us travel directly to the school?"

Seamus stared at Moon's wand, trying to discern any unusual changes.

"I can't make living things travel through time yet, but I've just started to understand it a little."

After Moon finished speaking, he began searching for suitable items in the carriage.

After searching around, he looked at the hair clip on Hermione's head.

After obtaining the other party's consent, Moon touched the spot with his wand.

“Hi-cet-Ubi”

As soon as the incantation was finished, the hair clip appeared directly in Hermione's hand.

"Is this a summoning spell?"

Seeing this effect, Simo was surprised.

He knew this spell was a spell that could only be learned in the third grade, but he didn't expect that Moon had already mastered it.

"This isn't a summoning spell!"

Just as Moon was about to explain, Hermione exclaimed in surprise.

Because the cursed object disappeared right above her head, and Hermione didn't sense the hairpin's movement.

In an instant, the hair clip appeared in her hand from her head.

"Is this what space travel is?"

After Hermione asked the question, the three young wizards stared wide-eyed at Moon.

"That's right. To be precise, this is called a spatial teleportation spell, which is the most basic spatial magic spell recorded in the book."

"I see." Hermione nodded in understanding.

The other two young wizards didn't understand at all; they were simply curious about the magical effect.

"Let's try again. This time I'm sure I can catch its movement."

Seeing Simo's excited expression, Moon decided to satisfy his curiosity.

He took the Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans he had just bought and then pressed his wand against the box.

"Next, I'm going to let one of the multi-flavored beans fall into your cup."

Moon used this as a prop because the box in the way proved that the Flavor Beans fell into the cup through spatial teleportation, rather than through rapid movement like the [Summoning Spell].

"Okay, I'm ready."

After Simo finished speaking, Moon's incantation rang out again.

The young wizards watched the process intently.

However, even after the spell was cast, they still couldn't find the movement of the Flavor Beans.

Curious, Simo picked up the glass and took a sip of the lemonade.

"There's no strange smell? Did it fail?"

Just as Moon was also wondering, Neville suddenly spoke up to explain.

"There was no failure; the multi-flavored beans didn't go into the cup, but into my mouth."

"Really? That's amazing! Let me see."

Seamus begged Neville to open his mouth so he could examine it.

However, the introverted little wizard kept shaking his head with a blush on his face.

Seeing his friends staring at him curiously, Neville was almost in tears.

"You probably don't want to check, this flavored bean tastes like booger!"
