Mysterious Walker at Hogwarts

"You asked me to protect her safety, and I did it, but there are some things I can't do anything about!" Binnock looked very resentful.

"What's going on?" Dean understood that he might have misunderstood.

"Aesop disguises herself as a man, and you don't want her to know that I'm secretly protecting her. There will be a lot of inconvenience in the process." Binnock said helplessly.

Dean thought about the overcrowded scene on the Mayflower and understood the inconvenience Binnock was talking about.

"Then how did you solve it?" Dean asked curiously.

"How can we solve it?" Binnock was extremely depressed. "I'm constantly dealing with Aesop's troubles! Whenever she is accidentally discovered disguised as a man, I have to risk being discovered by the Puritans and use a forgetting spell. !”

"It's not as exaggerated as you said, right? I think Aesop is quite cautious in his actions." Dean felt that Binnock was a bit exaggerated. At least from his secret observation on the ship, Aesop basically lived in seclusion and rarely did anything. When communicating with others, the chance of her true identity being discovered is extremely small.

"You have to find out, how big is the Mayflower? How many people are on it? How long is our voyage?" Binnock felt that his efforts were ignored by Dean, and complained angrily: "Plus all kinds of All kinds of accidents are added together, and it is impossible for Aesop not to be exposed."

"Stop complaining, isn't it a near miss?" Dean said that he only values ​​the results.

"We are lucky. After using the Forgetting Curse so many times, we have never been discovered by the Puritans once!" At this point, Binnock's little tail was raised again. From his tone, he was simply lucky. star.

After hearing this, Dean understood that there was something else hidden. This must be the result of Pastor Brest's secret care.

Otherwise, with Dean's ability, any use of magic would be noticed. How could Binok not be discovered after using the Forgetting Curse so many times?

Having said that, since Brest took such care, does it mean that the Mayflower Compact has been born as history has?

"Binnock, did everyone sign a convention before the Mayflower docked?" Dean asked.

"Well, you know this too?" Binnock looked at Dean and felt more and more that he was being unkind.

"The Mayflower Compact?" Dean confirmed.

"I didn't read it carefully at the time, I just roughly remembered that 'for the glory of God, to increase the faith of Christianity, to enhance the glory of our king and country... voluntarily formed a people's self-governing group.' Anyway, it has nothing to do with you wizards. "Binnock thought about it for a long time, and then he remembered these few words.

Now Dean can confirm that Binock and Aesop were indeed secretly cared for by Brest in return for his previous hints about "democracy."

But - it seems a bit regretful... Dean felt bad. He had obviously arranged it so deliberately because he wanted to witness history with his own eyes, but he missed it like this.

"Whitey?" Seeing that Dean was a little distracted again, Binnock shouted unhappily. He had been showing off for so long, why didn't Dean still understand his hint?Are you pretending to be stupid on purpose?

"What's the matter?" Dean looked at Binok's anxious look and couldn't help but want to laugh. In fact, he already knew what Binok wanted.

"Have you forgotten our agreement?" Binok asked, staring into Dean's eyes. "Now that I have protected Aesop from arriving safely in the New World, is it time for you to fulfill your promise?"

"Of course I remember. But I still want to confirm, are you really going to transform into a goblin?" Dean asked.

"I have made up my mind a long time ago." Binnock said easily.

"Then do you have any requirements for appearance?" Dean asked.

"The thinner, the better!" Binnock said eagerly. He had already suffered enough from being obese along the way.

"Okay, as you wish, but I hope you won't regret it." After finishing speaking, Dean raised his wand towards Binnock.

……

Aboard the Mayflower.

Most of the crew went ashore under the leadership of Captain Jones, leaving only Chief Mate Jeffrey and a few sailors.

Captain Jones had made up his mind along the way. After the Mayflower returned to Great Britain safely, he would announce his retirement and leave the Mayflower to Jeffrey.

In order to express his gratitude to Captain Jones, Jeffrey volunteered to be on the ship and generously gave the opportunity to others to go ashore.

Not long after the sky darkened, Jeffrey took the remaining crew members to check around and found nothing unusual.

The crew began to drink on the deck, and Jeffrey came to the captain's cabin alone.

As long as he thought that he would become the master of this place soon, Jeffrey could not hide his excitement.

After Jeffrey entered the captain's cabin, he was surprised to find that there were already people here, and he immediately became nervous.

"Geoffrey Teach?" The person in the captain's cabin turned around and confirmed.

Jeffrey was a little panicked. This man was covered in a wide black cloak and had a clown mask on his face.

"I am, who are you?" Jeffrey asked bravely.

"It doesn't matter who I am. I just want to make a deal with you."

"To make a deal, you should go to the captain." Jeffrey said.

"No, I'm looking for you." The clown chuckled, "The future captain~"

"You, how did you know?" Jeffrey's expression changed drastically.

Only the two of them knew that Captain Jones intended to retire. If it were to spread, it would be difficult to guarantee that other crew members would not have any bad thoughts.

"Don't worry, I have no intention of interfering in your decision." The clown said, taking out a sword and placing it on the table in front of Jeffrey.

"Are you threatening me?" Jeffrey misunderstood what the clown meant.

"No, this is my bargaining chip." The clown shook his finger.

"Chips? What do you want me to pay?" Jeffrey felt his throat was a little dry.

"I want you to help me find out the whereabouts of the Sword in the Stone during the voyage after becoming the captain." The clown said.

"King Arthur's sword in the stone?" Jeffrey couldn't help shouting: "That's just a legend. I'm afraid I won't be able to find out about it in my lifetime!"

"If you can't, there will still be your descendants~" the clown said easily, "I'm not asking you to find the Sword in the Stone, I'm just asking for relevant information."

Although the clown acted very kindly, there was still inevitable fear on Jeffrey's face - as far as he knew, any deal involving future generations, no matter how fair it seemed on the surface, was actually a deal with the devil. No different.

"No, I will never agree!" Jeffrey refused firmly.

"Why? In my opinion, this deal is fair and even beneficial to you." The clown asked puzzled.

"Just because of this broken sword, do you want me to bring down all future generations?" Jeffrey shouted: "Do you think I am a fool?"

"I see..." The clown laughed dumbly, "I made a mistake. I should show you how extraordinary this sword is first."

"No need!" Jeffrey yelled, "I ask you to leave the Mayflower immediately. No one on the ship is willing to make such a deal with you!"
