After a year, Dali's five dimensions all increased, especially his physique, which increased by a full five points.

Although Dudley himself didn't know how the increase occurred, it was probably related to his training? His magic resistance also increased from 1 point to 2 points, and this was the original version without any meditation enhancement.

The reason why it is growing so fast is mainly because Dali is only 12 years old and is still growing. If it grows for a few more years, the growth rate will definitely slow down.

The main difference is that his Ripple skill has reached LV2, which has made him more proficient in using Ripple and increased its power. His Fantastic Beasts Language has also increased to LV2. When Dudley was in the Forbidden Forest, he would often chat with magical creatures, and the effect was very obvious.

three days later.

Dudley, along with Harry and Hermione, successfully arrived at Hogsmeade on the Knight Bus.

The Knight Bus is the wizards' mode of transport. It is extremely fast, traveling 100 miles per jump. It is claimed that it can take you anywhere you want to go (land only) for just eleven silver scissors, but in reality, it can only travel within Europe.

Harry and Hermione were terribly pale after getting off the train; clearly, it had not been a pleasant trip.

This is why Professor McGonagall preferred to walk rather than ride.

Only Dali remained calm, his physique was simply too formidable to be affected at all.

Neither the Dursleys nor the Grangers are wizards, and their fireplaces are not teleportation points, so they cannot use Floo Powder.

When teleportation and keyless entry are not feasible, taking the Knight Bus is the best option.

What comes into view are rows of quaint houses, shops lining both sides of the road, and many wizards. The area is just as lively as Diagon Alley.

Hogsmeade is the largest all-wizard village in England, and the only village in the country that is entirely populated by wizards and has no Muggles. It is also the headquarters of the goblin rebellion of 1612.

"This is Hogsmeade. It's beautiful."

After drinking Dudley's specially made potion to cure motion sickness, Hermione recovered considerably and was immediately drawn to her surroundings.

The unique little houses, with their branches adorned with magically lit candles, were truly beautiful.

Moreover, although it's called a village, it's not much different from a typical small town.

"The Hogwarts history book says that we can only come here in the third year with our parents' signed consent. I never thought we could come here in the first year."

Hermione, beaming with delight, began her introduction again, this time to that book that seemed to contain everything: "A History of Hogwarts."

Theoretically, only third-year wizards are allowed to go to Hogsmeade, but in reality, Hogsmeade is not a secret base and does not prohibit young wizards from entering or leaving.

Young wizards who grew up in the wizarding world may have visited this place more than once when they were young, so you can come anytime you want.

"It's still early," Dudley said, glancing at his watch. "We can go for a walk around the area first."

"Dullie, the watch?" Hermione immediately noticed this detail and asked.

Hogsmeade is very close to Hogwarts, so theoretically electronic devices shouldn't be usable there either. Hermione already knew that watches wouldn't work when she was at Hogwarts, and even her alarm clock wasn't working properly.

Why are Dali watches unaffected?

"Shh." Dudley waved his index finger near Hermione's lips. "We'll talk about it slowly when we have time."

Alchemy combined with magical armor modification is a really good combination.

There are a few must-visit spots in Hogsmeade.

Honeydukes is the best candy shop in all of England. You can smell its sweet aroma just by walking by. It is said that Dumbledore was a regular customer of this shop, and Harry bought a lot of candy here.

Zonko's Magical Joke Shop sells a lot of prank props, but Dudley wasn't interested in those things, so he didn't go.

Devis and Bans Shop could barely be considered a magical equipment shop in the wizarding world, but it mainly sold small items such as anti-evil eyes and memory orbs, though it did give Dudley some inspiration.

After having a bite to eat at Madame Partife's Tea House, the three of them went to the Three Broomsticks Bar, the place Dudley and Carlo had agreed to meet.

Almost all Hogwarts students choose this place as their meeting point, even though Hogsmeade has two pubs, the other being the Hog's Head Pub on the corner of the main road, which is more popular with adults.

When the three entered, Carlo was already inside.

"Mr. Carlo."

"Mr. Dursley."

Although the two had already developed a certain acquaintance, they still exchanged very polite greetings upon meeting.

This was Carlo's habit, and Dali respected it.

After exchanging pleasantries, Carlo spoke again.

"I heard that Mr. Dursley was quite the star at the banquet. It's a real pity I didn't get to see him in person."

Carol, who was a seventh-year student at the time, had already graduated and was no longer at Hogwarts, so she did not attend the final year-end party.

Carlo said with a hint of excitement, seemingly even more interested in Dudley than before: "If I had graduated a few years later, I think I would definitely have been a member of the discipline group you established."

"The atmosphere in Slytherin, no, in all four houses of Hogwarts, has indeed deteriorated over the years."

Carlo had mentioned this issue more than once when he was in school, but only briefly, since it didn't really concern him.

"You're doing just as well now. I heard you're about to take up a position at the International Magical Cooperation Division - the UK branch of the International Wizarding Federation."

There are no rules in the wizarding world that prohibit officials from doing business. The fact that he is a Ministry of Magic official does not conflict with the fact that he is a witch and the owner of a poison publisher.

Moreover, they weren't employees before; they must have been in management positions, that is, officials.

Why do you want to become a Ministry of Magic official?

Of course, it's for personal gain. Many pure-blood nobles do this. They control 90% of the wizarding world's wealth, acting as both referees and players.

"Mr. Dursley, your information network is truly impressive."

Despite saying that, Carlo wasn't surprised at all that Dudley knew about his movements. On the contrary, he thought it was perfectly normal, after all, Dudley was Potter's brother.

"You're not bad either, Mr. Carlo."

Another round of mutual praise among businesses.

"Excuse me for bothering you, what would you like to order?"
