The mastermind behind Hogwarts

the next day.

"What should we say today? A visit to the pureblood families in North America? The purebloods here have asked me to pass on messages more than once, wanting to meet you. I'm getting annoyed to death."

Jericho's loud voice rang out early in the morning, completely disregarding the pleasant breakfast time.

Moriarty swallowed the grilled steak in his mouth and said with a smile, "If Senior Leon were here, he would say you have no manners again."

"It's a good thing he's not here," Jericho chuckled awkwardly. "Senior Leon... and the Aurors of the anti-dark squad have been sent abroad to fight dark wizards and have achieved good results. I've been hearing news about them in recent months."

"When the Ministry of Magic first changed hands, I sent them out to make contact with the world. Now it seems that was the right choice, didn't it?" Moriarty replied casually.

"Hmm..." Jericho nodded. "In that case, it makes sense not to see the pure-blood families. Let Professor Lockhart contact them."

"Perhaps you could consider the Ifamoni Magic School."

Jericho highly recommended: "On this trip home, I also paid a visit to Principal Dawn and toured Ifamoni."

"That's outrageous, I'm telling you," Jericho said, taking a sip of milk, his face full of bewilderment. "I tried the sorting process over there, and guess which house I got?"

"Thunderbird Academy!" Jericho couldn't wait any longer and answered his own question.

"My Merlin, this is absurd! I thought I would be assigned to the Longhorn Serpent Academy."

Ishcher's eyes lit up when he heard "Thunderbird".

She wasn't used to human food.

Last night I had whiskey and enjoyed a barbecue with Moriarty, but this morning's salad and sandwiches weren't to my liking, so Ishcher didn't eat anything this morning.

"Hmm... Thunderbird meat..."

Ishcher looked at Moriarty with interest.

That look seemed to say, "If you don't take me, I'll go by myself!"

Moriarty gave Jericho a resentful look, "You dared to talk back! Now you might get blacklisted by Ilhamone!"

Jericho looked completely innocent. "What's wrong? Do Daenerys and Iphamone have a grudge?"

"No. It's me who needs to settle something with Iphamoni."

Moriarty's expression gradually turned serious.

Salazars' Slytherin wand is buried in an unnamed grove of trees outside Ilvermorny School.

He had worked with the principal and students of Iphamoni many times before, but he had never brought this up.

But now that we've come to the beautiful country, it's necessary to resolve this.

"Since it's a Slytherin wand, I must take it back."

Moriarty told Jericho, who knew Moriarty's decisive nature, and that even if he didn't say anything and instead resorted to outright robbery, Ifamoni would have no power to stop him.

At this point, Moriarty openly stated that if a peaceful resolution could be achieved, it would be a good thing for everyone.

After a moment's thought, Jericho offered his solution.

"The school administration in Ilfamony did not value the snakewood wand very much—successive headmasters left it buried in the woods outside the school."

"With your strength and reputation, it shouldn't be difficult for you to ask Iphamoni for the Serpent Staff."

"The problem is that this serpent staff once caused pain to Ilfamoni, and every Ilfamoni wizard knows about it to some extent, including us."

Jericho wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and looked at Moriarty: "My idea is that I should discuss it with Principal Dawn first and hear their opinions."

Moriarty nodded slightly, indicating that he could.

That incident back then did indeed cause Iphamoni a lot of trouble.

The instigator was a pure-blood member of the Gaunt family.

Her name is Gormley Gaunt.

According to seniority, they are distant relatives of the Slytherin family.

Of course, by that time, there were no more direct blood relatives in the Slytherin family, and Gaunt was considered equivalent to Slytherin in the eyes of outsiders.

Incidentally, the founder of Iphamoni was related to Moriarty.

This niece of Gormley Gaunt, Isolte Thayer, was the founder of Iphamoni.

The feud involves Gormley Gaunt and Isolde Thayer.

Unable to accept Gormley's management style and pure-blood doctrine, Isolde stole the Serpentwood Wand and traveled across the ocean to the Land of Beauty, where she established Iphamoni.

Gormley then came to Ilfamoni seeking revenge. Using her Parseltongue abilities, Gormley cast a spell on the Serpentwood Wand, which greatly affected Isolde.

If it weren't for the great strength of Isolde's two sons and the magical abilities of the horned water serpent wand she invented, Gormley Gaunt would not have been defeated.

The founder of Iphamoni may have died from an attack by Parseltongue.

Since then, Isolde has buried the serpent staff, and it remains buried to this day.

The serpent staff was the wand Salazars used by Slytherin, not the Slytherin staff that Moriarty inherited, and it looked exactly like an ordinary wand.

Compared to the Slytherin Staff, it appears slightly weaker.

However, Moriarty would not underestimate the Snakewood Wand because of this; everything Salazar left behind was extraordinary.

Not to mention, Moriarty could also see the soul of Salazar himself.

Whether the snakewood wand holds any secrets can be found out with a simple question.

"They're all gone, what are you thinking about?"

Ishcher waved to Moriarty.

Moriarty finished reminiscing, looked at Ishcher, and said definitively, "You haven't eaten enough."

"Do you expect me to praise your intelligence?" Ishcher pouted, looking sullen. "What happened to the promised Thunderbird meat?"

"There's something I don't understand," Moriarty said, stroking his chin. "With your appetite, even if Swabia gave you all the food it produced, it still wouldn't be enough to fill your stomach. How have you survived to this age?"

"Foolish! This Dragon Mother will send her little dragons to hunt prey all over the world!"

Ishcher counted on her fingers: "The phoenix of England, the lion and rhinoceros of Africa, the giants of the Eastern European highlands, the Yeti of the Eastern snow mountains, the Mycrown of Greece, the whale of the Arctic, the horned camel of South America..."

"And occasionally we'll eat Scottish round-faced fat chickens, Atlantic mermaids... as a pre-dinner dessert."

"Ah, I remember now, this Dragon Mother has eaten more than one basilisk!"

Ishcher grinned at Moriarty.

Despite her stunningly beautiful face, Moriarty felt a chill run down his spine.

So Ishicher is a top predator. Moriarty is determined to keep Marcus from meeting Ishicher, otherwise the two will definitely fight.

Also, you can't bring Ishcher back to Slytherin Castle, otherwise Shiva the Basilisk and the pet unicorn will surely suffer a terrible fate.

O dragon!

Moriarty felt utterly overwhelmed.

How do I satisfy a dragon's appetite? It's urgent, waiting online!

During the conversation, Ishcher repeatedly glanced at the horses and bison running outside.

"Go ahead and eat," Moriarty waved his hand listlessly, adding weakly, "Do you need me to cook?"

Unexpectedly, Ishcher gave her a disdainful look: "You don't think I eat meat like a savage, do you?"

"Although you didn't say anything, your eyes have already betrayed your true feelings."

"Let me tell you, such thoughts are an insult to dragons."

Ishcher snorted and put her cloak and dragon armor back on.

"Any meat becomes delicious under the dragon's breath."

Ishcher shouted, licking his lips.

"This Dragon Mother will take you to eat real barbecue!"

……

In the afternoon, Jericho returned home with Iphamoni's invitation.

"Sir, Principal Dawn invites you to visit Ifamony."

Jericho handed Moriarty a beautifully crafted invitation.

"Evermony is in Massachusetts. We're setting off now just in time for dinner. To be honest, dinners in Evermony are quite unique."

"Okay, let's get going."

When Ephamoni heard about the "banquet," he became very excited.

He answered directly in place of Moriarty.

The body also made honest gestures.

He took flight on his own, and with a clap of his hands, Moriarty and Jericho both flew up at the same time.

From the sky, Jericho was amazed by Ishcher's magic and looked down to see herds of cattle and horses on the grassland.

"Huh? A lot of my cows and horses are missing?"

Jericho looked at his cattle and horses, now half gone, completely bewildered.

Upon hearing this, Moriarty and Ischl exchanged a glance. Moriarty patted his round belly and said, "Jellicoe, your bull is right here."
