Ancient Warlocks at Hogwarts

Mentor Van Dijk. Stephanie walked into the main building of the castle and bowed to Ivan respectfully to say hello.

"Miss Mei," Ivan smiled and looked at the 17-year-old girl in front of him. She is the youngest among the many apprentices on Free Island. Being able to stand out from the previous competition is enough to prove her excellence. ,: "About this mission, I think I have a very clear understanding before you start the competition, so if you have any questions, you can ask me now, otherwise you will leave for the United States soon."

Stephanie was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the task would be so urgent. Just after the battle with other apprentices on the island, the Van Dijk mentor here urged her to leave for the United States.

However, she neither dared to refuse nor would she refuse. The letter her teacher, Ms. Mary, sent to her a few days ago had already told her the reward she would receive after completing this mission. A holy acorn is a treasure that even the mentors of the union covet, but Ms. Mary said that as long as Stephanie can obtain the qualification to perform the task from the Free Island apprentice and successfully complete the task, then that A sacred acorn will be given to her for use.

Unlike Andre, the girl who grew up in the Free Magic Guild knows a lot about the Holy Acorn, a treasure that can help wizards enter the realm of rules. If she is really allowed to fuse the Holy Acorn, then Stern will Fanny is confident that she can break away from being an apprentice before the age of 20 and truly become a mentor of a free magic union.

So Ivan asked her to leave for the United States immediately. Although she had just finished the competition with other apprentices, Stephanie still had no complaints. She herself was eager to catch Andre as soon as possible so that she could get the piece that she had already regarded as her bag. Acorn of the Holy Acorn.

"I can leave now, but Master Van Dijk, you have to give me an address first, otherwise the United States is so big, I won't be able to find that kid." Regarding the matter of capturing Andre, Stephanie naturally had early thoughts. She had a plan, and when the competition started a few days ago, she was sure that she could win the championship.

Ivan smiled and nodded, and then took out a small golden box from the pocket of his robe: "I did some tricks on the boy named Andre. As long as you bring this compass to the United States, you can roughly Determine his location."

Stephanie curiously took the golden compass that Ivan handed to him. She opened the cover and found a compass-like style inside. However, this pointer was not pointing to the North Pole, but to the United States. Andre.

"Then I have no other questions, but I have something to say, Master Van Dijk." After carefully examining the compass in her hand, a smile appeared on Stephanie's lips, and then she raised her head and said, "I have never I have never been to the United States, so there is no way to teleport there through Apparition. I wonder if, Master Van Dijk, you can do me a little favor?"

Ivan laughed dumbly. He really had never thought of this. "Okay, but I can only take you to the border of the United States. It is different from the United Kingdom. If I enter openly, the witches of Salem will be very happy." It is easy to find that they are not as easy to talk to as Dumbledore."

"Of course." Stephanie nodded. She had naturally heard about the organization in the United States that was more powerful than the Free Magical Union. The Salem Witches Association has sixteen witches who have entered the realm of rules, and it is said that Their president who never appears is actually a High Table member who has lived for more than 800 years, but this has never been confirmed by the High Table or the association.

Although Ivan's strength was not as strong as Dumbledore's, it was not difficult for him to use Apparition to travel across continents. After Stephanie nodded in agreement, he put his hand on the girl's street, and then He turned around and disappeared from the castle on Liberty Island.

Back to Andre's side, the girl named Amy sent him to downtown San Francisco and then said goodbye and left. The two parties had a great time chatting on the way, but most of Andre's words They are all false. After all, the magical world he lives in cannot be disclosed to Muggles casually.

The next step was to find a way to get to the San Francisco Airport to catch a plane to Arizona. Andre carried his suitcase and found the nearest subway entrance.

But he didn't know it. On the street corner that he didn't notice, there was a familiar face fleetingly.

"Teacher, when can I go back to England?" The one who went against Andre was Sophia, who had disappeared in Norway. The person she was talking to at this moment was naturally the middle-aged witch who suddenly appeared at that time.

I just don’t know why, but the two of them now have a teacher-student relationship.

"Why, do you still want to go back to your little lover?" A sneer appeared on the middle-aged witch's lips, "Wait until you can truly step into the realm of rules, and then talk to me about this matter."

Sophia looked bitter. She didn't know why she suddenly asked about this matter just now, but the teacher's answer did not surprise her.

Compared with Andre, who still knows little about the so-called rules, Sophia, who has been in the United States for almost a year, knows very well that that realm is far from what she can easily achieve now.

After she was abducted by this middle-aged witch in Norway last year and returned to the United States, the other person told her that her biological parents were actually wizards and were close friends with the middle-aged witch. She had some things on hand and could not take care of the child, so she took her to the United States. Sophia was handed over to Ivan of the Free Magic Guild.

Regarding this statement, Sophia did not dare to believe it 100%, or she was actually very skeptical, because she remembered clearly that she had a happy family before entering the orphanage.

Although the middle-aged witch said that the couple were just her adoptive parents, Sophia vaguely remembered that her current appearance was somewhat similar to her deceased mother. Of course, in this regard, she would not be like the middle-aged witch. The old witch spoke.

Anyway, since arriving in the United States, this middle-aged witch named Teresa has been teaching her advanced magic knowledge, but she has done nothing else.

When she was in Norway, she had already tried that she was no match for this teacher. Sophia could only accept it and stay in the United States with peace of mind to improve her magic level. But today she suddenly thought of Andre on a whim, so she On the way home, she asked Teresa when she would be able to return to the UK, but unfortunately the answer did not make her happy.

"You have to know, if it weren't for your sake, I would have deprived that boy named Andre of the holy acorn in his body," Teresa said again when Sophia stopped talking. : "No, maybe that kid already has two holy acorns. The corpse of the wizard he brought back from Norway last time. If I'm not mistaken, he was also a druid during his lifetime, and you are heading to Norway. Your little lover’s purpose must also be to find another sacred acorn from the corpse. Since I didn’t find it from the corpse, he must have taken it away.”

Regarding the Holy Acorns, it was not Sophia who told Teresa. After all, the witch lady herself didn’t know anything about the Holy Acorns. She only knew that Andre could transform into a fire dragon, but this information was very important to her. It's too obvious for the teacher. Besides the Holy Acorn, what other treasure can allow a wizard to complete this kind of magical Animagus that is beyond common sense?

Teresa thought for a while and then continued: "Although the Holy Acorn is no longer of much use to me, for the elders of the association who have just set foot on the rules, it is still a kind of thing that is enough to make them My beloved treasure, so you should understand how much benefit I have given up for you."

Sophia immediately nodded respectfully and thanked her softly.

It’s just that Miss Witch is not really a fool after all. Over the past year, she has discovered many things that are different from what Theresa told her. Not to mention her clumsy lie about her parents, she just told Andre’s heart. It was definitely not because of her that Teresa didn't take action to covet the holy acorns.

Sophia remembered clearly that it was after she revealed that Andre was a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in England that her teacher put away the greed in his eyes. It was obvious that he was not for her. This student didn't care about face, but was afraid of the principal of that school, Albus Dumbledore, who is known as the greatest white wizard of this century.

However, although she knew in her heart that Theresa was definitely not as caring about her friend's daughter as she appeared to be, Sophia did not dare to reveal that she knew this. She really didn't know what this middle-aged witch wanted to do to her. What to do, but the only thing that is certain is that she is completely powerless to resist under Teresa's hands now.

When she was in Norway, Miss Witch raised her wand without overestimating her abilities, but after arriving in the United States, the more she understood Teresa's strength, the more desperate she became. Not to mention that she might not be able to compare with Andre's now. The level of magic, even if she really stepped into the so-called field of rules, is definitely no match for this teacher. She has seen with her own eyes Teresa's status in the Salem Witch Association. Those powerful witch elders are He didn’t even dare to speak loudly in front of Teresa.

"By the way, I want you to go to Arizona tomorrow." The two of them had left the noisy streets and walked into the dirty alleys. This is Teresa's residence in San Francisco, "Eva, she We are trying to use the blood of thunderbirds to fuse ordinary people to give those No-Majs the ability to cast spells. It just so happens that your magic level has made good progress recently, so you can try to see if you can hunt a thunderbird alone."

Sophia nodded obediently. Such things were no stranger to her now. After being brought to the United States by Teresa, she was often sent out to perform various tasks, but without exception, in During such a mission, there will always be a witch from the Salem Witch Association with her, so even if she wants to leave the United States, there is no possibility.

As for the Eva Theresa mentioned, she is an elder of the Witch Association. She wants to conduct experiments on Muggles. Of course, Miss Witch will not find it difficult to accept it. Although she was in Andre when she was in Hogsmeade. She acts like a gentle big sister in front of her, but don't forget that Sophia grew up in the Free Magic Guild. The darkness she has seen and been exposed to is far more terrifying than Andre imagined.

There is essentially no fundamental difference between the Salem Witches Association and the Free Magical Union. They are both organizations of dark wizards. The only difference is that Sophia's status here is much higher than that in the Free Magical Union. She is considered Teresa is the student of the elder, and Teresa is the student of the never-shown president of the Witch Association, so even other witch elders will not look down upon her.

But all this is actually not what Sophia wants. She still misses those plain but warm days in Hogsmeade, but those are obviously just memories.

The two stopped at the bottom of the alley. Teresa reached out and flicked the wall in front of her, and a door suddenly appeared in front of them.

After pushing the door open, you will find a very modern room, which is different from the habits in Europe, or at least the Salem Witch Association where Teresa belongs has a completely different lifestyle from ordinary American wizards. They also Can use magic in daily life, but prefers to enjoy the convenience brought by Muggle technology.

When she first came here, it took Sophia a long time to adapt, but now she is completely used to it, and sometimes she even thinks that if she can return to Hogsmeade, she can also use that building. The cabin is arranged like this.

Sophia will rush to Arizona tomorrow, but she will not take Muggle transportation. Then Teresa will naturally have someone send her there by apparating, so she returns to this building hidden in San Francisco After entering the house in the bustling urban area, Miss Witch said goodbye to her teacher, and then walked to her room.

Of course, she wasn't going to rest. The study tasks Theresa assigned her were much heavier than those of Hogwarts students. If she hadn't accompanied the teacher to the black market in San Francisco to buy magic materials today, she would have to do it basically every day. Spend the whole day reading magic books in your room.

Andre, on the other hand, was already on a plane bound for Arizona. Of course, he didn't buy a ticket. He just used the magic spell to get on the plane, which was not full, and then found a seat to wait. The landing of the plane.

He would not know that in the following days, he would not only meet the strongest apprentice from the Free Magic Union, but also meet a long-awaited young witch.

It's hard to say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, but Andre, who is already on the road, obviously cannot change this encounter that is secretly destined by fate.
