Retirement from Hogwarts

"Are you two okay?" Goyle's deep, gruff voice came from Harry.

"It's okay," Crabbe muttered richly from his right.

Harry unlocked the door and stood in front of the mirror that Jack had prepared.Goyle stared back at him in the mirror with dull, sunken eyes.Harry scratched his ear, and Goyle did exactly the same.

Neville's door opened and they glared at each other.Neville was a perfect replica of Crabbe, from the short pot hairstyle to the long gorilla-like arms, but his face looked pale and frightened.

"It's unbelievable," Neville said, walking over to the mirror and poking Crabbe's snub nose. "It's unbelievable."

"Let's get going," Harry said, loosening his watch from Goyle's thick wrist. "We still have to find out where the Slytherin common room is, and I really hope we can find someone to follow."

Neville, who had been watching Harry, said, "You have no idea how weird it is to see Goyle thinking."

Harry banged on Hermione's door. "Come on Hermione, we have to go."

After a while, a sharp voice answered him: "I-I really don't want to come out. You can go on your own."

"Hermione, we know Millicent is ugly, and no one will know it's you."

"No - really not - I don't think I can come. You two hurry up, you are wasting your time." Harry looked at Neville with confusion on his face.

"You look more like Goyle now," Neville said. "He always looks like this when the teacher asks him a question."

"Hermione, are you okay?" Jack asked through the door.

"It's okay - I'm fine. Just tell Harry and the others to leave -"

"You guys go quickly, I'll take care of Hermione's side. You've wasted 3 minutes." Jack pulled out his pocket watch from his chest and took a look at it before saying to Harry and Neville.

"Don't come back later. I may have to take Hermione to St. Mungo's." Jack added in a low voice.

After hearing Jack's words, Harry and Neville looked at each other in confusion and nodded heavily.Left the Room of Requirement

Jack walked to Hermione's cubicle door and knocked on the door.

"Harry and the others have left, come out."

"I'm not going out, please leave me alone. Leave me alone for a while. Matthew will take care of me." Hermione shouted from inside, trying hard to suppress her crying.

"If you have an accident, you need to get treatment. Refusing medical treatment is not a good habit, Hermione. Come out, be good."

"I won't go out, I won't go out, don't force me."

Jack frowned when he heard Hermione's firm refusal.She mentally reflected on whether it was right or wrong to not stop Hermione from drinking the cup of Polyjuice Potion with cat hair in a mischievous mood.

"Araho Cave is open."

Jack whispered as he pointed his wand at the compartment door lock.

Then, he pulled the door hard.A black shadow slammed into Jack's arms as the compartment door opened.

"What happened to you in there? Hermione? Why are you hiding in there and not coming out? Let me see." Jay

Ke asked looking at Hermione who had her face buried in his arms.

"If I don't tell you, you, a bad guy, will bully me." Hermione said in a sullen voice, her face firmly pressed into Jack's arms.

"Are these cat ears?" Jack asked, gently touching the cat on Hermione's head. "So Hermione, you thought the fur of Millicent's kitten was her hair?"

"You also said that it's all because of the Polyjuice Potion you provided them. If it weren't for your Polyjuice Potion, I wouldn't be like this now. What should I do? Polyjuice Potion is not used to transform animals. What if I can't change What should we do when we go back?" Hermione raised her head and shouted to Jack with tears in her eyes.

"It doesn't matter if you don't change back, Hermione is very cute like this." Jack said as he scratched the nose of Hermione who only had two more cat ears and a cat tail.

"Really...really...?" Hermione asked Jack with red eyes.

"Of course, no matter what you become, Hermione, you will always be my little Hermione." Jack said as he tightened his arms around Hermione.Feeling Jack's movements, Hermione couldn't help but gently rest her head on Jack's strong chest.

"I mean, you two, how long are you going to hug me? Didn't you agree to go to the White Empire together tonight?"

"Dallion?! When did you get here?"

"Just when you secretly used the unlocking spell." Dallion said jokingly, looking at Jack and Hermione.

"Unlocking spell? Isn't that all quilt..." Hermione was just halfway through speaking when she buried her head in Jack's chest again.

"That's right, I can see clearly." Dallion's words made Hermione bury her head deeper.

"Okay Darian, stop bullying Hermione. This is not what a good teacher should do." Jack said dissatisfiedly to Darian after holding Hermione up from the ground with difficulty.Seeing that Dallion seemed to want to say something else, Jack added again: "If you keep talking, then no one of us will go to the White Empire tonight, Miss Knowledge Record."

"It seems that you have done a lot of homework, little one. Well, I won't talk about it tonight. But why do you want me to meet here?"

"I don't think anyone can deal with Bahamut and Mephistopheles based on our abilities alone. I need to find a helper. Hermione, call Matthew out, I need her help."

"Okay." Hermione, who finally stood aside from Jack's arms, replied in a weak voice.As the Command Spell on the back of Hermione's hand lit up, Matthew was summoned from the Command Spell by Hermione.

"I had such a good sleep this time... Master, what's wrong with you?" Matthew asked in surprise, looking at Hermione with cat whiskers on her face and cat ears on her head.

"I'm fine, it's just a magic accident." Hermione looked at the anxious Matthew, calmed down and replied.

"Matthew, do you mind lending me your shield?" At this time, Jack interrupted Matthew who was about to ask something.

"Shield? Could it be?"

"That's right, that's it."

As Jack's words fell, a special wave of magic was uploaded from the circle of wisdom.Then, the furniture and walls in the entire Room of Requirement began to move rapidly, and the roof began to recede outward from the middle.After a while, the original room was replaced by an open-air altar surrounded by twelve simple stone pillars.
