Chapter 816: Hermione's Room
🕑 Added 2023-07-13 04:29:50 +0000 UTCIn this way, half a month had passed quickly in Evan’s carding of magic knowledge.
During this period, his mother cooked many dishes he liked, and bought him a lot of clothes and daily necessities.
Evan would have liked to say that these things were all available in the wizarding world, and she didn’t need to bother, but in the end they’d been still stuffed in the cloth bag that he carried with him.
After taking off his robes, he no longer looked like a wizard. He was no different from any Muggle teenager.
Evan talked to his parents about his trip to Egypt with Hermione, and it didn't take much persuasion. Not only did they agree, but his father also sponsored him a large sum of money for the expenses of this trip, including Hermione's share.
Even when Evan was about to set off to pick up Hermione, his parents wanted to accompany him...
"You don't have to, I can go directly to Hermione's house by magic," said Evan, getting in his dad's car.
"Obviously, my little wizard," said Mr. Mason cheerfully. "But we’re going to visit the Grangers. Your mum made a cake, and she also wants to see Hermione. The girl left a very good impression on her last summer."
"I like that child," said Mrs. Mason, looking at Evan. "Honey, is there anything else you need to prepare for your trip to Egypt?"
"Nothing, there will be someone waiting for us there, and if there’s any trouble, it can be solved with magic," said Evan.
As long as there were no monsters as terrible as Voldemort or the evil gods waiting for him in Egypt, any other thing was not a problem for him.
Thus, the three of them arrived at Hermione's house.
Seeing Hermione and the Grangers coming out of the house with a slightly surprised expression on their faces, Evan felt rather embarrassed.
Like Evan, Hermione was dressed as a Muggle. She was wearing a loose pink T-shirt and slim jeans, with the hems trimmed to reveal her ankles. She was also wearing a pair of leather shoes, and her original messy hair was carefully trimmed. It was slightly curled, fluttering in the wind. The whole person looked cute and pure, exuding the image of a well-behaved schoolgirl.
At the sight of Evan, her brown eyes sparkled with brightness and radiated enthusiasm, as if they could melt everything away.
Before Evan reacted, Hermione rushed at him and almost knocked him down on his back.
"Hermione ..."
"Evan, how are you? Is everything okay? Did you have any trouble with your trip? I was terribly worried. I was afraid that you might have an accident. Those giants ..." said Hermione with a little shortness of breath.
"I'm fine, I’ll tell you everything," said Evan, feeling a warm joy in his heart.
He hugged Hermione hard and saw his parents and Mr. and Mrs. Granger standing by, smiling and looking at them.
For Hermione's initiative to hug Evan, the expression on the adults’ face was quite wonderful, but it didn't stop her.
From their looks, it was clear that they hoped Evan and Hermione would further their relationship. Although they were young, according to British law, as long as their parents agreed, they could get married at the age of sixteen, and they were two years apart ...
After a while, Mrs. Granger whispered, "Well, Hermione, we should invite the guests in!"
Hermione let go of Evan, noticed the anomaly around her, blushed, and hastened to say hello to Mr. and Mrs. Mason.
After exchanging pleasantries, they walked into the Grangers’ beautiful house.
Evan and Hermione had booked a flight in the afternoon, and they were going to stay at Hermione's house for lunch at noon.
Evan left his parents in the living room, and followed Hermione to her bedroom for a visit.
It was actually his first time entering Hermione's room, a girl's room.
The room was very tidy, with everything neatly organized and placed in order. There was no over-exaggerated but lovely decoration. There were a few puppets in the middle of the bed, and everything looked particularly warm.
On the inner wall were rows of long bookshelves, full of hundreds of various magic books, giving Evan a feeling of returning to Flourish and Blotts Bookseller. He casually pulled out a book, which was about the history of modern Magic, and noticed Hermione's detailed annotations throughout.
"It's a bit messy, isn't it?" said Hermione nervously. "Please have a seat; I'll bring some juice."
Evan nodded, took the book and sat down on the bed, his gaze moved from the bookshelves to the cabinet by the window.
The cabinet doors were closed, but Hermione's suitcase was open on the ground. Apparently she’d just been sorting out what she wanted to take with her to Egypt.
In addition to half a trunk of magic books, the rest were all the girl’s clothes neatly stacked.
"It's truly Hermione's style. She has to take so many books even when traveling"
Evan blinked and saw a pile of girls' underwear next to the books. He stared at the lovely pink underwear for a while. Hearing footsteps in the corridor, he turned his attention to the magic book in his hand again.
"The time is too short. I haven't packed up yet. I'm not sure what I should bring to Egypt. There will definitely be many magical wonders there. I should bring some more books about it, but ..." Hermione stopped, handed the juice to Evan, and looked at him seriously, "Well, stop talking about me … tell me how you communicated with the giants. And the test left by Ravenclaw … have you passed it and found the secret treasure key she left?"
"No, the situation was much more troublesome than we thought. We met Dark wizards of Raven’s Claw this time ..." said Evan.
He told her all about his experience in Sicily, about the owl monster and the castle he saw in Dijon, the situation of the giants’ tribe, the Cyclops inside the volcano, the conspiracy of the Raven’s Claw Dark wizards, the Titan and Time magic, etc.
Hermione sat next to Evan, staring quietly, and several times couldn't help holding his arm.
"In the end, we went straight back to Hogwarts, and Hagrid is still leading his brother on foot. We won’t see them before the beginning of the school year ..."
"A giant … he shouldn't do this. He shouldn't bring that giant with him!" Hermione raised her eyebrows and continued, "I didn't expect that you would encounter so many things. The Titan and time magic are both considered to exist only in legends. I must have read about them in some book.”
