CH 11

Early in the morning, on the second floor of the Leaky Cauldron Bar, a pale-coloured owl threw today's daily newspaper into the window of the guest room. 

This room was exactly the room that Ray had ordered. He was up early, and he avoided going out of the Leaky Cauldron lately to avoid Ryan. 

Therefore, the Daily Prophet, which is updated every day, has become an important source of his information. 

Just a few days ago, he saw a piece of news. 

An Auror named Carbo Doric, and his partner, were besieged by ten vampires on the east coast of England. 

The Auror's partner died in battle, and Carbo Doric killed seven vampires under desperate resistance before breaking out of the siege. 

"Why did the vampires, who never clashed directly with wizards, suddenly besiege the Aurors? If you want to know the specific reasons, please continue to pay attention to the Daily Prophet." 

After a detailed report, the news ended, leaving him in a suspense. 

Vampires are dark creatures known for their speed. Although they are afraid of sunlight and garlic, once the number of vampires is great, the wizard will be in quite a dangerous situation. After all, vampires are stronger than wizards in terms of physical strength. 

Rey was very sensitive to news about vampires. After all, the Ryan he was facing was a high-level vampire. 

The Auror named Carbo Doric was able to kill seven in the face of the siege of ten vampires, and his strength was really impressive. Rey not only fantasized in his heart, but it would also be great if he could learn how to deal with vampires from him. 

"Cleaning." Just as Rey was searching for news about vampires, a female voice came from outside the door. 

In the narrow corridor on the second floor of the Leaky Cauldron, a young witch in a tattered shirt and dishevelled hair knocked on Rey's door. There was a broom that seemed to be alive behind her. 

"Sister Julian, I want to trouble you again." Rey opened the door and let Julian, who was cleaning, come in. He has lived here for more than half a month, so he quickly became friends with her. 

"Oh, Rey, this room is not messy though, and it's really good. Cleaning is my job. If the room is so tidy every day, and Tom finds out, I will be deducted from my wages again." 

The witch named Julian was very dissatisfied with Rey's hygienic habit, but the words she said to the boss Tom later were whispered to Rey. 

"Mr. Tom shouldn't be that kind of person, right?" Rey shrugged as Julian, who was cleaning, exaggerated. 

"Oh, is that right? Then when you first went to the bar, why did he charge you the juice he offered to pour you?" 

Julian blinked, and what he said left Rey speechless. The story of the money that Tom charged for Rey's glass of juice was also said by Rey after mixing with Julian. 

"Oh, Sister Julian, you said you wanted to teach me a few simple magic, and let me tell the bad side of Mr. Tom. I was still a child, what I said, please choose to forget. " 

As for the shirk of responsibility, Rey was not ambiguous at all, after all, his soul was not only eleven years old. 

"Come on, ghost. Sometimes I really want to unplug your head and see how your soul is formed." 

Julian helped Rey change the sheets, and the broom and rag took the initiative to wipe and sweep the only dust in the house into the garbage bag. 

Rey consulted Julian about this lifelike broom and rag. Magic items like this, bought from magic shops, are like household cleaning robots in modern society, only much smarter by comparison. 

"Little devil, have you learned the basic magic I taught you?" 

Julian quickly changed the quilt and then turned to ask about Rey's studies. 

"Fluorescent flickering and levitating spells are fine, but cleaning them up always makes a mess in the room." 

As for magic, Ray couldn't wait. Last time in Knockturn Alley, he was passive because he didn't know any magic. 

So, after settling down, Ray wanted to get in touch with magic no matter what, and Julian, who was cleaning, naturally became his first teacher. 

Julian was an employee in the Leaky Cauldron, in charge of the cleaning of the residents. These were simple little magics, Rey wanted to learn these, so naturally, there was no problem. 

In the past ten days, Rey has practised the fluorescent flickering and levitation spells. As for cleaning them up, there were always problems. 

Whenever this magic was used, the room will be very messy. 

"You want to use the 'clean up' magic to tidy up everything in the room?" 

Julian looked at Rey like a monster, her face full of incredulity. 

"Difficult it is? is there a problem? Sister Julian." 

Rey was panicked by the stare in her eyes and asked nervously. 

"Of course not, kid. The 'clean up' magic can remove the dust from the clothes and the residue in the cauldron. However, you want to use this magic to tidy up the items in the room, I have to say that your idea is very bold. " 

Julian was an enthusiastic person, and she could be said to be an authority on the magic of 'clean up'. 

"Kid, clean up is a magic that you want to use to get the whole house back in place and keep things tidy? It would be weird if you could do that. The magic that can tidy up an entire room is called restoration. Of course, the premise is that the room is clean and tidy for a certain period of time. And to restore the whole room, no matter the size and control of the magic, the requirements are very high." 

Pulling on Rey's cute face, Julian looked at the distressed Rey with relief, and continued with a smile: "If you extend the magic of 'clean up', it might just expel living creatures from the house." 

Julian was always curious about Rey's thinking, so she often told Rey that magic can be used this way or that. Letting Rey hit the wall was her new joy. 

"Can magic be used like this?" 

For his blushing face, Rey forgot the pain, and a surprised expression hung on his face. For Julian's deliberate exaggeration, Rey felt that there was some truth. 

Because about magic, in the eyes of an outsider like him. Sometimes, the boundaries of two similar magics are blurred, and if you extend them, many other logically feasible functions can indeed appear. 

Julian was very satisfied with this expression, nodded and continued: "Of course, a lot of magic is actually an extension of the use of other magic, and they all have similar things in common. Magic is single, but people's minds are not single. ." 

"Sister, can you use the 'clean up' spell to expel living creatures?" 

Rey asked excitedly after being surprised. Such a pretentious expression completely satisfied the vanity of Julian, the great wizard. 

Besides, Rey himself wanted to hear what Julian, a witch, had to say about magic, and sometimes she spoke righteously. Not only did Rey have some doubts in his heart, but Julian, the witch who was cleaning the house in front of her was the sweeper of the magical world. 

"This, this... It's my sister's experience in cleaning for many years. As for the practical stage, it is under development. As for you, let's start by cleaning up the dust on your clothes." 

Julian laughed embarrassingly, then pulled Rey's hair with her dusty hands, and exited the room. 

Rey was teased like this but he didn't care at all, instead, he thought it was very cordial. 

Julian was an ordinary witch, Rey also asked her about dealing with vampires, but she replied very seriously: If you encounter a vampire now, don't try to deal with him, just run away. 

For this, Rey could only smile awkwardly. The point was not that he wants to deal with vampires, but that vampires want to find him. 

......... 

"Clean up." 

After Julian tidied up Rey's room, she went to the adjacent room to continue her sweeping business. 

Rey closed the door and continued to practice his magic. 

"Clean up." 

This time, the magic was performed very smoothly. The tea stains on the clothes he was wearing started to disappear quickly while the wand was shaking. 

The magic of cleaning up needed Rey to practise for so many days without any effect, and the reason for the problem was that it was used in the wrong direction. 

In his previous life, when watching the Harry Potter series of movies, Rey vaguely remembered that Dumbledore used a magic to restore the house that had been damaged beyond recognition. 

I thought it might be the magic of cleaning up a new one, but who knew it was something else, from the surprised expression on Julian's face, the magic was not so simple. 

Restoring as before, the key to this magic was at which stage the caster is at. Small items may be ok, but the whole room is just…. 

If Dumbledore really used this simple magic, how amazing was his magic control? 

Magic is a profound subject. It is not easy to become a wizard like Dumbledore who can fight against Voldemort. 

Everything has to be done step by step. Some things cannot be rushed. 

Putting on the clothes cleaned with magic, Rey packed all his belongings again. 

Today was September 1st, the day Hogwarts begins, and he has to go to King's Cross to take the only steam train. 

"Wingardim Leviosa." 

He waved the black wand with purple dragons in his hand, and the luggage trolley floated with the guide of the wand. 

The Levitation Spell was one of the most convenient spells in life. After Rey learned it, this luggage don't need anyone's help to move them downstairs. 

Magic, changes lives. 

Magic, of course, also changed the world. 

"Rey, today is the school day, study hard, this is your school gift." 

Tom with the Mediterranean hairstyle smiled and walked up to Rey who had just come downstairs, and packed a small package into Rey's luggage, not giving Rey any chance to refuse at all. 

"Thank you, Uncle Tom. I will definitely study hard." 

After thanking him, Ray dragged his suitcase out of the Broken Axe Bar. Get a taxi to King's Cross.
