Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

Chapter 394 Thestral Carriage
After the sumptuous dinner was over, everyone returned to their common rooms.

When walking out of the auditorium, Kyle was suddenly stopped.

"It looks like I'm here just in time."

Professor Dumbledore stood at the door of the auditorium, and after seeing Kyle, he led him directly to the aisle on the side.

"Remember the letter you asked me to deliver a few days ago?"

He said: "I received a reply from Nico at noon today, he asked me to send you there during the holiday.

"So, are you going to borrow Fox? If it's you, it shouldn't refuse."

I don't know if it's an illusion, but Kyle vaguely smelled a sour smell.

He shook his head and asked:
"...Is there any other way?"

If possible, Kyle didn't want to be carried away by the phoenix. Although this was the fastest way, it was too barbaric... He couldn't accept it.

Professor Dumbledore thought for a while, "Of course, it will just be slower."

"It's okay." Kyle said quickly, "I'm not in a hurry."

"OK then……"

The two talked for a while, and after about a few minutes, Kyle returned to the Hufflepuff common room.

Because tomorrow is a holiday, the students all looked very excited, sitting there discussing plans for the next two weeks loudly.

Kyle didn't participate in their discussion, but went straight back to the dormitory.

……

The next day, Kyle got up as usual, and there was no one in the dormitory. He packed up his things and pushed open the door of the dormitory.

The common room was empty except for Connor, sitting in a chair near the fireplace, doing her homework.

After hearing the movement, she casually raised her head and said:
"Hello, Winsty...wait a minute, Kyle?"

Connor was a little surprised, and immediately jumped up from the chair, pulling Kyle to run outside.

"Hurry up, hurry up... I hope the train hasn't left yet." She said anxiously, "Really, why are you only waking up now, I would have called you if I had known."

"Don't worry, it's fine."

Kyle took her arm back and explained: "The train left 10 minutes ago, and I have other arrangements, so I don't have to take the train."

"Another arrangement?" Kang Na looked at him suspiciously, "You also decided to stay in school?"

"No." Kyle shook his head. "It's just that you don't need to take the train. Remember that Professor Dumbledore came to me yesterday, just for this matter."

Hearing what he said, Kang Na breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and returned to her previous seat.

"Why are you alone, Cedric?" Kyle asked.

"I went out." Kang Na said, "I went out early in the morning, and I didn't say where I went."

"Are you alone here?"

"No, there is also Wensty, a fifth-grade student."

Kyle nodded, went to the kitchen to get some food and came back.

Until about ten o'clock in the morning, Cedric had not come back. A brown owl flew in from the window and threw a note to Kyle.

"I have to go." Kyle looked at the above content, stood up and said:
“Have a great time during the holidays and Merry Christmas!”

"Merry Christmas!"

Kyle, who left the common room, did not go to Hogsmeade Station, but turned a corner on a fork near the platform, and came to the place where they took the carriage when school started.

This is a very remote place, and almost no one would come here at ordinary times, but today is an exception.

"Kyle, this way!"

Hagrid seemed to have been waiting here, and when he saw Kyle, he waved quickly.

A carriage was parked beside him.

Different from the one I rode at the beginning of school, there were three Thestrals in front of this carriage.

"The principal told me that you might need this."

Hagrid patted the thin wings of his thestrals, and said with a smile: "Are you going home?
"I have to say that your choice is great. The Hogwarts Express and the Thestral Carriage are the best means of transportation.

"But remember to take good care of them when you get home. I have put the food for these little guys in the car, enough for them to eat for two weeks."

"Thank you, Hagrid." Kyle stepped forward and said with a smile, "But I didn't borrow the Thestrals just to avoid taking the train... Besides, Professor Dumbledore would not agree to such a request.

"It's just that the place I'm going to is a bit hidden. Neither the train nor the knight bus can reach it. I can only choose this more ancient way of travel."

"That's it, no wonder..."

Hagrid didn't ask where Kyle was going, but just asked, "Have you ever taken this kind of transportation before?"

"No." Kyle shook his head.

He didn't know if Newt had a Thestral in his case, maybe there was...but he'd never seen one, let alone rode in a Thestral wagon.

After all, he hadn't seen this magical animal until the last two years.

After Kyle got into the carriage, Hagrid handed him the reins.

"Relax, they are smart and the carriages are safe, all you have to do is trust them."

When Kyle grabbed the reins, the thestral in the middle glanced back at him and uttered a short chirping sound, as if asking when to start.

"Anytime," Kyle said. "You know the location, don't you?"

Thestral nodded, and spread its wings violently.

The fallen leaves on the ground were blown and flew around. After the carriage galloped forward for a certain distance, it suddenly soared into the sky and flew into the sky.

Kyle poked his head out from the carriage, Hagrid was standing there waving his arms, Kyle waved too.

The carriage moved very quickly, and Hagrid's figure became smaller and smaller until he turned a corner and was completely invisible.

The carriage shuttled among the clouds, flew over mountains and rivers, villages, and then bustling towns and cities...

But no matter where they went, the people below didn't notice anything unusual.

Kyle noticed that in the carriage, there were a few hidden rune symbols that lighted up slightly. If he read it correctly, it should represent the meaning of "hidden".

Two hours later, Kyle also saw the Hogwarts Express.

Looking down from his current position, the train was as small as a toy. The Thestrals quickly chased it from the rear to the front, and then left it far behind.

No wonder Hagrid looked down on the Hogwarts Express before. In terms of speed alone, the Thestral carriage won.

And the comfort is unmatched.

It was still flying at such a fast speed, but Kyle in the carriage didn't feel the bumps at all.

It was like sitting in the auditorium of a castle.

Kyle didn't look outside until the train disappeared from sight.

The main reason is that further forward, the clouds have begun to thicken.

Just now he just opened the seam a little bit, and the cold and humid air outside would hit his face in big balls, that feeling was really uncomfortable.
