Hogwarts: Hermione and I switched identities!

One day, two days, three days...

Galo had no idea how many days she had waited.

Every morning she would bring a live, tender sheep, but that guy never showed up again.

A full week has passed.

Galo sighed, and a scorching breath emanated from his enormous dragon head.

Galo adjusted her body and stood up from the ground.

Galo felt it was time for her to take a shower.

He left the cave with lifeless eyes.

Shortly after she left, a boy descended from the sky.

Having regained his body, Tom entered the cave.

strangeness.

What about Galo?

Negligence, huh!

Tom probably guessed that the reason why Garo had been in the Momo Mountains was to protect the secrets of this place.

I haven't seen her... no, I should say I haven't seen her dragon.

After putting down the human pastries he had brought that day, Tom flipped through the various history books he had borrowed from Hogwarts while comparing them with the text on the wall, hoping to find something useful.

About half an hour later, Galo descended from the sky.

In the distance, Galo saw a figure standing in front of the stone wall.

enemy?

Galo frowned and quickly flew down, gathering the flames in her mouth into a ball. Just as she was about to blast this impolite person into dust, Galo saw what the other person looked like.

Tom...

"What are you doing here now?!" Gara yelled at Tom in his own dragon language.

"You scared me!" Tom turned around hurriedly. "If you were here, you should have told me beforehand. You suddenly appeared and shouted... Why do I feel like you're even warmer?"

Of course, Gara couldn't tell Tom that she had just been charging up her magic and almost blasted him to pieces.

"What's it to you?" Gara sneered. "Keep studying your crappy script, you'll never understand it anyway!"

Neither humans nor dragons know how to cherish—before Tom arrived, Galo kept thinking that if Tom appeared again, she would definitely tell him the meaning of those ancient words.

But when Tom actually appeared in front of her, Galo stopped talking.

For some reason, Garo had a vague feeling that once Tom deciphered the text, he would never come back.

“Galo, can you really understand these things?” Tom pointed at the things above. “I really can’t guess what kind of creature is so intelligent that it can understand this kind of writing.”

"Sigh, I really envy their wisdom. If I were as smart as them, I would have achieved something long ago, instead of being an unknown little wizard today."

Gara curled her lip smugly: "Humans are like this! Wizards are like this too! Of course you can't be omnipotent. These things are actually very simple. I've been able to understand them since I was born, but that man also studied for a long time before he could roughly grasp our writing, so much so that even now, he can only write such ugly things!"

Tom remained surprised: "Could this be the writing system of your dragons?"

Of course, Tom already knew this in his heart.

He saw a description of dragons in an ancient book.

Tom was just guessing.

Dragons are proud creatures, especially intelligent ones like Gara, they generally disdain to lie!

If Jialuo told me that she could understand what was written on it, then she definitely could!

There was no point in her deceiving herself!

So Tom turned his gaze in one direction.

The script used by dragons.

After searching the entire forbidden book section, Tom finally found a preserved magic picture.

It contains only a short description of dragons.

To this day, no one has been able to decipher the dragon runes, or rather, very few people have even seen them.

Tom was one of the lucky ones.

After a brief provocation, Gara spoke up: "Our writing system isn't as simple as yours. Look at this." Gara pointed to a line of small characters at the bottom, "This character is pronounced 'mei,' and this one is pronounced 'lin.'"

"Merlin?" Tom exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, Merlin."

"Is this the Merlin I'm thinking of?" Tom flipped through the book. "Legend has it that Merlin once placed the sword in the stone at the top of Mount Momo. Could it be true?"

Garo paused for a moment, looking at Tom as if he were a fool: "How could there be a sword in the stone? What is that? A sword in a stone? Merlin did come here, that filthy, despicable old man not only came here, but also placed me here!"

That's why I can't leave him for the rest of my life—to help him protect those secrets, and absolutely not let the evil wizard get his hands on them!

Tom didn't care about any secrets; he hurriedly asked Garo, "Is there any way to get you out of here?"

Hearing that Tom's first concern was for her rather than all that nonsense, the so-called Merlin secret, Garo's expression softened: "At least you still have some conscience. But never mind, so many years have passed, and I'm no longer connected to the outside world. I'll just stay here. I'll take it one day at a time, and when I die... or when this world is destroyed, it will all be over."

Galo yawned: "That's fine. You continue deciphering, and I can continue teaching you dragon script, but you have to agree to one condition."

"Please speak!"

"If one day you unravel these secrets, I hope... at least once a month, no, once every three months, you'll come to see me once every three months. Of course, food is a must, and you can also help me take a bath and brush my teeth. That's not too much to ask, is it?"

Tom patted Garo's big paw: "I promise I'll come see you at least once a month, don't worry, my friend."

"Who wants to be friends with...with you wizards! Get your hands off me right now! Foolish wizard, I swore I would never let a wizard touch me!"

"What about when you take a bath..."

Gara murmured, "When I was taking a bath, I treated you as a human, not a wizard. After all, you didn't use magic to clean my body. I hate magic. Every time I see you using magic, I think of that annoying old man Merlin!"

Tom gasped.

What exactly did Merlin do to Gara?

Tom looked away. "So, can you teach me the rest too?"

"Haven't I already taught you?" Galo asked, puzzled. "Isn't that enough?"

Tom was speechless: "Only two words, and it's just a signature..."

"Ah... I thought you had forgotten those two words. Two words a day is enough. That's enough for today."

Tom: "Hey! It's barely dawn, why are you sleeping already?"

"Sorry, but in our dragon world there is no distinction between day and night. We sleep when we're tired and eat when we're hungry. That's how we dragons are. Figure it out yourself."

With her eyes closed, Galo ignored Tom's shouts from the side.

The plan was a great success!

With just two words a day, I can keep Tom hanging around me for at least half a year!

Unless that guy can figure out how to write the dragon's language on his own.

But that's impossible!

Even Merlin himself couldn't finish it. He had to beg and plead to get his mother to convert the magic into dragon script, which Merlin then carved himself.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems like it's been a long time since I've seen old man Merlin.

died?

It's better that he's dead. There's no benefit to Merlin staying in this world; just seeing him is annoying!

With that thought in mind, Galo secretly opened her eyes and saw Tom standing in front of her.

Tom isn't that unlikeable; even among humans, he'd probably be considered quite handsome...

It's a pity it's a human; it would have been better if it were a dragon.

Fire dragon is the best!

Unfortunately, Tom can only ever be human.

When I woke up, it was already evening.

As she said, dragons have no concept of time.

How old can these frail wizards live? By the time they are a hundred, they are already white-haired and look like old men on their deathbed.

For dragons, a hundred years is but a fleeting moment; their dragon life consists of many hundred years.

"So, have you figured anything out yet?" Galo shifted her body, trying to make herself more comfortable as she spoke.

"Well... I've achieved some success."

Galo: "I already told you, dragon writing isn't that easy. You'd better wait until tomorrow... What did you just say? Did you understand it?"

Chapter 105 Tom, Experience Life! (4k)

Anyone can brag!

Galo roared angrily in his heart.

Merlin... Merlin was known as the greatest wizard in the wizarding world, and even he couldn't learn our language.

You're just a Tom... a mere Tom, such a tiny little guy!

Well... it seems that human wizards are all small-time wizards.

but!

Garo didn't believe Tom had really learned what Merlin had failed to learn.

This isn't some children's book; it's a new language!

For a human being, no, for an entire species, to want to learn a new language, especially such a completely unrelated magical language, is nothing short of a fantasy!

"You...you say it again?" Galo stood up, somewhat incredulous, but considering the child's extraordinary talent, she couldn't help but ask, "You really learned it?"
