Chapter 11: “Chocolate Frog”

After what happened, Hermione seems more wary of Nevilles presence. She suddenly becomes much quieter.

Matthew continued the conversation with Neville instead; meanwhile, Matthew seemed really happy talking with Neville.The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))

Matthew also inquired more about the wizarding world; although Neville is an eleven-year-old boy, he doesnt know much about it.

While they were talking, the train already left London going North to where Hogwarts is.

Around twelve-thirty noon, a trolley voice came from the hallway outside. It stopped right in front of their door, then suddenly, their door opened.

A chubby witch stood beside the trolley, Do you need any snacks, dear? She asked.

Yes! Neville suddenly felt energetic and took a bunch of snacks such as the chocolate frogs, cauldron cakes, and every flavor of beans.

How about the both of you, dear? The witch looked at Hermione and Matthew.

Hermione walked over and hesitantly picked some snacks, Are these free?

Yes, my dear. Just dont be too greedy! The witch nodded.

Hogwarts is awesome! Hermione said with a licorice wand in her hand.

Hogwarts paid for our tuition, books, and living expenses. Providing these for free as well? Is Hogwarts that rich? Matthew asked.

Yes, the school Hogwarts itself is vibrant. Matthew said, Not to mention the principal Matthew mumbled to himself.

Will these frogs move by themselves? Hermiones looking at the chocolate frogs.

Thats right, So you have to be careful to not let them run away They came with a collectible card of famous witches and wizards as well; Im so close to completing my collection. Neville explains.

Matthew saw that besides his left arm, all of his limbs were made of prosthetics.

The Professor counted the crowds, and after a while, he said, Very well! Follow me, all of the first-years, follow me!

They did not take the main road but a steep and narrow trail. The students dont say much; they can only follow the Professor.

There is a mass of pitch black on both sides of the path; it looks gloomy.

As they arrived at what seemed to be the end of the path, a black moor was seen in front of them; further than that, over the lake, they could see a towering castle standing there.

The students cheered.

There are boats moored by the lake.

There can be no more than four people on each boat! Professor Kettleburn shouted.

Matthew, Neville, and Hermione choose the boat near them, while some crowds become chaotic. Two girls came to their boat.

There is only one spot left; lets choose another one, Daphne! said the girl in front, Not to mention the Longbottom is also on this one. She then took the other girls hand and left.

Matthew couldnt help but look at Neville after what she just said.

Our parents had some conflicts Neville explained softly.

Soon, another student came. The last passenger at their boat.

A little kid with a short figure, and messy hair, he keeps his head down.

Hello! Hermione took the initiative and greeted him.

The timid boy just looked at them quietly and lowered his head again.
