I'm a priest at Hogwarts

"Here are the books you asked for," Nico Flamel put a stack of Chinese books on the desk. These were all books that Orlando had asked him to get back. They were all about the Stone Drum Inscriptions.

"Teacher, thank you so much." At this time, Orlando was looking up the classics and taking notes. The notebook was densely written with Chinese characters. "In addition, I may need to use these. Teacher, I would like to trouble you to ask for help." Get it for me."

Orlando took out a book list from the drawer and handed it to Nico Flamel. The book list was densely written with a series of book titles. Because he was afraid that the person looking for the book would not understand it, Orlando first wrote it in Chinese and then translated it in English. Again.

These books include Laozi's "Laozi's Five Thousand Words" (also known as "Tao Te Ching"), Zhuangzi's "Nanhua Zhenjing", Guiguzi's "Guiguzi", Dongfang Shuo's "Shenyi Jing" and "The Story of Ten Continents in the Sea", Ge Hong's "Baopuzi", Wang Chongyang's "Fifteen Comments on Mingyang Lijiao", Zhang Sanfeng's three chapters of "Quan Dan Xuan Yao" and "Tao Zang Ji Yao" and so on.

Nico Flamel couldn't understand why he, a close disciple, was so keen on practicing Taoism. If he had the time and energy to practice soul magic, wouldn't it be nice to learn alchemy?

In his previous life, Orlando was a research-oriented scholar who had no other hobbies except work, study and practice every day. It was this dedicated attitude that allowed him to achieve great achievements in just over ten years.This quality of concentration does not disappear due to rebirth, it is just hidden deeper.

Now Orlando has entered this state, immersing himself in research and forgetting everything around him.Hermione and Emily, who came together, were not surprised by his situation. They were now as close as sisters. They just had a good time without Orlando nagging them.

So for more than a month, the two of them traveled up and down the mountains and seas, crossing mountains and ridges, watching the sunrise in the Alps every day and admiring the bright moon in Quiberon Bay at night, completely letting themselves go.

On the other hand, Harry, the Dursley family who lived at No. 4 Privet Drive, was not so lucky. His uncle locked up his spell book, wand, cauldron and broomstick on the first day he moved in. When he got up, Harry also lost his only way to contact the outside world.

"Orlando, have you received a letter from Harry recently? Ron said that he may be in trouble." At lunch that day, Orlando rarely appeared at the table, and Hermione asked hurriedly.

"Harry? No, I've been very busy recently, as you know." Orlando was in a good mood today, and his research on the Stone Drum Inscriptions finally made a breakthrough.

"Who is Harry?" Emily asked in confusion as she ate roast chicken.

"He is our classmate and friend in school. He was adopted by his uncle's family when he was young, and he was often bullied by their family." Hermione explained.

"You can invite him over to play. I think Grandpa Nico Flamel won't mind? Right, Grandpa?" Emily asked sweetly. She had become a frequent visitor here recently and didn't want to go home. .

During this period, Nico Flamel's heart softened because she was called grandpa and grandpa every day, and now he couldn't be more doted on her.

"It depends on who invited it. If it were someone else, grandpa would definitely not agree, but if it is Emily, then..." Nico Flamel deliberately stopped mid-sentence and gave his own Buckwheat bread spread with caviar, while teasing her.

"What about that? Grandpa." Emily was indeed fooled and asked anxiously.

"Then...of course it's no problem."

"Grandpa Nico Flamel is the best."

Emily ran down from her seat, put her arms around Nico Flamel's neck, and rocked her coquettishly.

"Harry staying at his uncle's house was arranged by Dumbledore. It is said to be a very ancient guardian magic. Teacher, have you ever heard of this kind of magic?"

"The magic of life is ancient and powerful. Sacrifice oneself to achieve others, and only the greatest maternal love can do it." Nico Flamel said with a hint of sadness.

"Life magic?" What is that? Although Emily has no magic talent, her love for magic is no worse than others, she asked curiously.

"It's a kind of magic performed at the cost of one's own life, like a sacrifice."

Emily shuddered, "Who would be so stupid to sacrifice his own life?"

"That's why I say this is the greatness of maternal love." Nico Flamel touched Emily's head and said softly.

"Did Harry's mother sacrifice herself for him?" Emily reacted immediately.

"Yes, she sacrificed herself to save him from the Dark Lord." Hermione said sadly.

"How pitiful, is he his father?"

"Dead too, killed by the Dark Lord."

"Is the wizarding world so scary? Why do people kill people? And who is the Dark Lord?" It was like meeting the wizarding world for the first time. Emily felt that this world was too scary.

"There is no permanent peace in the world, especially for wizards who have mastered extraordinary power. There will always be some people who like to use their strength and power to enslave others. Whenever this happens, war is inevitable. Only if you are strong enough can you make people Only with the power of fear can you not be enslaved and live the life you want."

"Is it like grandpa?" Emily asked innocently.

"Yes, people like me live long enough and are powerful enough, so no one dares to mess with me." Nico Flamel said proudly, stroking his beard.

Orlando pouted, he still had to take the teacher's face into consideration in front of Emily and Hermione, lest he get exposed and become angry and wear small shoes, which would be bad.

"I remember it seems that the day after tomorrow is Harry's birthday. How about we write a letter and ask?" Hermione suggested.

"Okay, let Wukong take a trip." Orlando said noncommittally.

"I'm going back tomorrow," Hermione glanced at him resentfully, "Mum called me several times and said I played for too long."

"Ah, so soon?" Orlando then realized that it had been almost more than a month since he invited Hermione to his house.

"You are busy doing research every day and leave Hermione aside. Of course you don't feel that time passes slowly." Emily said unceremoniously.

"How about I go out with you for a walk today?" Orlando said sheepishly.

"No more research?" Hermione asked.

"I already have some ideas. I just need to string the words together and figure out what they mean. This is not a hurry. It's more important to be with you."

"You have such a sweet mouth, why haven't I seen you like this before!" Emily said sourly from the side.

Nico Flamel smiled and said nothing while watching his children playing around. He was quite enjoying this kind of life now.

After Orlando and Hermione finished writing the greeting cards to Harry, they put the birthday gifts and greeting cards together and sent them out.

Orlando prepared a universal lock-picking knife for Harry. He thought that this thing might be able to help him when he could not use magic, while Hermione prepared a broomstick repair tool box for Harry.

After sending away the owl, Orlando took Hermione and Emily back to their home in Cardiff. Today they were going to the shopping mall on St. Mary's Street to buy things. The Royal Corridor here is an arcade-shaped ancient building with many small shops inside. Shops include local snacks, fruits, food, and daily necessities.

Orlando led the two girls to eat and play here all day long, and did not return home until nightfall.
