Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard

 Chapter 830 Unreliable Nico

Wenda Rozier didn't even look at Kyle before she chose to dispel the fierce fire and wanted to save Grindelwald. Kyle also didn't hesitate. He got on his broomstick the moment she left and headed towards him without looking back. Fly outside.

He hadn't thought about giving Wenda Rozier a hard blow from behind when she was dispelling the fierce fire, but after thinking about it, he felt it was unnecessary. He couldn't guarantee that he would be able to kill Rozier, even if there was a chance. Neither does Basilisk support.

If she had not died, there is a high probability that she would have chosen to solve her own problem first. Then everything would be back to square one, and his role in igniting Nurmengard would be minimized.

Also, if Grindelwald is really burned to death, he will be hunted endlessly... These guys are much more difficult to deal with than Death Eaters, and this deal is not a good deal.

 So he might as well end the game right now, which would be considered a win for him.

As for what to do next... As long as Dumbledore can be brought back, these messes can be thrown directly to him... Kyle messed with Rozier and others just to save him, and this was originally his responsibility.

"Stop!" Tinos originally wanted to stop Kyle, but a sharp fire suddenly changed its direction and floated slowly towards the few people still lying on the ground. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and give up on Kyle, and turned around to save people. .

Since no one was chasing him anymore, Kyle directly chose to go to a high place and activated the Firebolt at full speed.

About ten minutes later, the light of the curse lit up behind him again... It seemed that the people who had been deceived before were back, but at the same time, Kyle also felt that some kind of restraint that had always existed around him was gone.

The second before the curse fell on him, Kyle smiled slightly and his whole body disappeared into the air instantly.

 Apparition.

By the time he appeared again, the surrounding scenery had changed from forests to towering peaks, which looked like a mountain range.

 Because he was not familiar with Austria and did not want to return to the entrance to the forest, Kyle could only choose to move randomly, which would also prevent Rozier and others from finding his location.

 Fortunately, this destination is not bad, it should be far away from the forest, and there are no Muggles around.

Kyle jumped off his broomstick and sat on a rock.

He was a little lucky that his mind was always clear today, and he didn't feel like he was always sleepy and dazed like before.

After all, he was facing twelve experienced wizards. If he were not careful, even if it was just a wrong decision... he might have been caught by them.

Kyle sat for a while, preparing to drink something to relieve his high tension.

　　It happened to be bedtime now, so he thought of the ‘raspberry juice’ that Nico gave him.

Even though it is a magic potion, it tastes really good, much better than pumpkin soda.

But when Kyle took out the bottle, he found that it was still empty, and the ones he drank in the morning had not been refilled like before.

 “Have you finished drinking?”

Kyle shook the cup to make sure that the 'raspberry juice' would no longer leak out, then he took it back and replaced it with another bottle of light blue potion and poured it into his mouth.

The cool potion also slightly relieved Kyle's tense nerves. He no longer thought about Wendarozier, but thought about how to go back.

 He took out the ‘ticket’ that Nico gave him, which was the double-sided mirror.

 “Nico, Nico...are you there?”

Kyle shouted twice tentatively, originally thinking that it was in vain. Unexpectedly, a few seconds later, the double-sided mirror suddenly lit up, and then Nico's face appeared.

"Oh...has the matter been resolved?" Nico asked, "It's a little slower than I thought."

"It should be a lot faster if you change the door key to another place." Kyle said angrily. After being hunted for nearly a night, he felt a little resentful in his heart.

If Nico had not placed the door key in the headquarters of Rozier and the others, none of this would have happened.

 “What happened?” Nico asked in surprise.

"you do not know?"

"Should I know?" Nico blinked, "In fact, I haven't been to that place for sixty years, and the location of the portkey is the location where I came out after the transformation of Nurmengard. How? , isn’t it a forest now?”

"Yes, there are just a few more people." Kyle told what happened before.

"Twelve people, they chased me all night. If they were not careful, let alone saving Dumbledore, I might end up here."

 “Wenda Rozier?” Nico suddenly realized.

"So many Aurors failed to find her. I didn't expect that she was hiding near Nurmengard. But thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is the safest place. After all, wizards who have experienced that period of time do not dare to get close. Grindelwald, even if he is locked up."

 “Why? He can’t escape from Nurmengard.”

"Oh, you probably don't know." Nico explained: "Many of the people who follow Grindelwald are Aurors who were responsible for capturing him, including the fact that he was captured several times before, all in Escaped with the help of the watchers.

“The International Confederation of Wizards investigated those people and found that they only started to follow Grindelwald during his arrest.

"There are rumors that Grindelwald knows a special Imperius Curse that can corrupt the mind invisibly. Because of these things, Aurors naturally dare not approach Nurmengard."

“A special Imperius Curse?” Kyle raised his eyebrows, “Then you still let me come over, so you’re not afraid that I’ll release him?”

"Don't be afraid, because this is just the rhetoric of the International Federation of Wizards." Nico said, "The real reason is definitely not the Imperius Curse, but what it is specifically... I'm afraid only Grindelwald and the guards know."

"Okay." Kyle sighed, "Let's not talk about this anymore, how do I go back now."

"Ah, this..." Nico was speechless for a moment.

"What's wrong?"

"That's it..." Nico whispered: "I set a return time on your door key."

 “You didn’t tell me earlier.” Kyle held the double-sided mirror in his hand.

"when?"

 “Twelve o’clock.”

"Twelve o'clock at noon?" Kyle frowned, "I have to wait so long, why can't it be earlier?"

"No, it's not twelve o'clock at noon." Nico shook his head, "It's night, or early morning."

Kyle's heart skipped a beat, but he still said tentatively: "Okay, although it's later, it's only one day, so it's not impossible to wait..."

"No, it was early yesterday morning." Nico continued: "In other words, you have missed your return time."

“It was also because I didn’t think well. I didn’t expect you to meet Wenda Rozier, so I wasted some time.”

it is as expected…

Kyle sighed, "Then what should I do now."

"Well... you have to figure it out on your own." Nico smiled awkwardly and said, "Or you can wander around in Austria. It's pretty good there, especially the music, which makes people forget to leave."

 “Then wait for Rozier to come to your door?”

"Don't worry about this, they won't leave that forest easily." Nico said, he suddenly glanced to his left, "Oh, the repair of the time turner has reached a critical moment, I have to watch it ,Good luck…"

 After saying that, the double-sided mirror dimmed.

 “Hey, Nico, don’t go, it’s a thousand miles back from here!”

Kyle shouted twice, but there was no response from the double-sided mirror. Apparently, Nico had put his mirror elsewhere.

This...is over a thousand miles, let him figure it out on his own?

Kyle was so angry that he almost threw the mirror into the lake opposite.

If this were better in the UK, just a few Apparitions or making a portkey yourself would be enough.

 But the problem here is Austria. If he uses Apparition and Portkey, he may be caught by Aurors from the countries along the way in the next second, and he will be labeled as illegal entry.

Unless he uses an illegal door key, like the double-sided mirror he came with, he doesn't know how to do it, and if he doesn't know the place here, there is no way to buy it.

 The only way now seems to be to fly back on a broomstick.

 More than a thousand miles... Even with the Firebolt, it would take about ten hours.

 Strictly speaking, it's not that far. For professional Quidditch players whose matches may last several days, a ten-hour flight is no problem at all.

But Kyle was not a professional player, so his legs felt sore at the thought of flying for so long.

How about staying here for a while and waiting for Nico to finish the time turner and send it over...

no! As soon as this idea came up, Kyle rejected it.

Even though Nico said that Rozier would not leave the forest easily, he did not dare to bet on this possibility. It would be better to leave here as soon as possible.

Nico's arrangement is too rough.

“You have to think of another way.” Kyle complained to Nico in his heart, while pacing in place... Suddenly, he saw a flock of birds flying on the opposite hill.

 A flock of birds is nothing and a normal thing, but they inspired Kyle.

 He quickly took out another two-way mirror and tapped it with his wand.

 “Kanna, are you there?” Kyle said softly.

This time, the double-sided mirror responded quickly, and Kangna appeared in the mirror rubbing her eyes.

 “Kyle?” She didn’t seem to wake up yet, “What’s wrong?”

“Sorry.” Kyle said, “That’s right, I’m in Austria at the moment. Are you familiar with this place?”

"Huh?" Kang Na suddenly woke up, "Why did you go there again, or were you just playing?"

“Not this time, we have business.” Kyle said, “Are you familiar with this place?”

 “Not familiar.” Kangna shook her head, “I’ve never been there.”

“What about Fleur? She should know. I remember she mentioned the music here during the Triwizard Tournament before and recommended that we should pay a visit.”

"Is there any?" Kangna thought for a moment, "Forget it, I'll go ask, she's right next door."

Kanna stood up quickly... There was a patter of footsteps in the mirror.

 Not long after, the picture appeared in the mirror again, this time it was Fleur.

She was probably woken up too early. She was not in a good mood and did not look good to Kyle at all.

 “What’s the matter? Tell me quickly.”

Kyle didn’t waste any time and asked directly: “Where is the post office in Austria?”

 “Where’s the post office?”

 “Austria.”

 “Why do you ask this?”

"Because I'm here," Kyle said, "and I need to find the post office urgently, do you know that?"

"I don't know. I just went there to play and never sent a letter." Fleur said angrily, "But I know there is a famous wizard village there. You can go and have a look."

Fleur said an address and then roughly closed the double-sided mirror.

Kyle rode on his broomstick again and rushed towards the place she said.

 …

 It’s a bit far away, but it’s much closer than a thousand miles.

It only took Kyle half an hour to arrive at a square in the south of Vienna.

 According to Fleur, there is a huge accordion statue here, with an empty space in the middle that only the wizard can see.

Kyle quickly found the gap.

　　After walking in, it was a village similar to Hogsmeade, but much livelier than Hogsmeade. The wizards also wore different clothes, and many of them could be seen as foreign tourists at a glance.

And as soon as he came in, Kyle heard melodious music.

Near the entrance is a piano playing music. No one is sitting in front of it, and the piano keys are moving by themselves.

Further forward, you can still see a string quartet, and in front of a clothing store, the owner in distinctive costumes is playing the tambourine happily.

You can even see a small band at the door of the bar. They are also wearing unique Austrian costumes. Three of them are wizards, and two are creatures similar to Cornish elves, with transparent wings and serrated Their tails are playing a cello that matches their size...it sounds pretty good.

What’s even more amazing is that not only do these pieces of music have their own characteristics, they don’t affect each other.

I can only say that it is the place with the best music atmosphere. If you have nothing to do, it’s really nice to come here for a walk.

Even though Kyle was quite anxious before, after arriving here, he unconsciously slowed down and wandered between various stores.

This village is not big, but it took Kyle more than an hour to walk into the Owl Post Office next to the tavern.

 “Hello guest.”

The clerk looked at Kyle up and down for a while, then spoke in a pure London accent, "Do you need any help? Send a letter, a postcard, or a gift?"

“A gift,” Kyle said, “but it’s a little far away.”

"The customer is overly worried. If he wants to send it to England, the couriers in the store will have no problem at all."

"you know?"

"Obviously, isn't it?" The clerk smiled, "If I guess correctly, the customer should have just graduated from Hogwarts and came here to play.

“But one thing I must inform the guest is that due to the current situation in the UK, the cost of hiring a courier may be slightly more expensive than usual. I hope the guest can understand...”

“I only ask for speed, price is not an issue.” Kyle took out a heavy bag of Galleons.

 Hearing the jingling sound inside, the clerk’s smile became even brighter.

“What a generous guest, please allow me to recommend Kabu to you.” The clerk waved, and a sturdy owl immediately flew over.

It is a little smaller than Raton, but compared to other owls, it is still outstanding. At first glance, it is the gold medal messenger here.

 “So, where do you need to send your stuff?”

 “United Kingdom, Ministry of Magic.”

 “In this case, a total of ten galleons will be needed.” The clerk smiled.

Kyle’s hand paused while taking out the money.

"This is not a little expensive. As far as I know, the distance to send a message is not even more than one galleons."

“There’s nothing we can do about it. Many messengers are unwilling to go to England…those monsters in cloaks will freeze their wings.”

 The monster in the cloak...can't be a dementor, Kyle thought to himself.

 But wasn’t that thing solved a year ago? Isn’t the information here a bit too backward?

"Or guests can also choose other messengers." The clerk continued: "It may take a little longer, but the price is cheap, only five galleons."

 “Forget it, that’s it.”

Kyle didn’t explain anything and just took out ten gold coins and put them on the table.

“But I might have to buy something else, can I take it with me first? I won’t have to make another trip when I finish shopping.”

"According to the regulations, it's not allowed." The clerk said, "But it's rare to meet such a generous customer. It's really hard for us to refuse such a small request...as long as it doesn't take too long."

"Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you." Kyle took two steps and turned his head again, "Oh, by the way, I also need an envelope."

 “Free gift.” The clerk placed a standard envelope on the table.

Kyle said nothing, took the envelope and left.

 It cost him ten galleons. It would be too much to charge for the envelope.

 A few minutes later, the messenger owl left the village clutching a bulging envelope, and at the same time, Kyle disappeared.
