Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 219 Ye Qi's Revenge

Because of Percy's urging, Moon quickly left the dormitory with his suitcase.

At first, Ron was chasing after him, wanting to return the gem to Moon.

But as soon as he walked out of the common room and reached the spiral staircase, he was stopped.

Because Moon is usually around, the good friends in the dormitory don’t bother to remember the changing patterns of the spiral staircase.

In the past, they only needed to follow Moon's footsteps to reach the designated location as quickly as possible.

But now, Ron could only helplessly watch Moon's back as he walked away, while he was stuck on the spiral staircase, unable to go up or down.

"Why are you here just now? If you miss this bus, you'll have to walk to the station."

Seeing Moon walking out of the school gate with a suitcase in his left hand and Bengbeng Shuwo in his right hand, Hermione immediately walked up to him.

She helped take the tree nest, then pulled Moon quickly towards the last carriage.

"Hurry up, Moon, we're waiting for you."

Neville and Seamus were sitting in the carriage. They reached out and pulled Hermione and Moon into the carriage, which had already started moving.

"Sorry, I was delayed for a while due to other things."

After Moon put away his suitcase, he sat on the right side of the carriage, and Hermione sat next to him.

"It doesn't matter. I finally caught up."

Neville smiled shyly.

Being able to help others, especially Moon, made the self-deprecating little wizard very happy.

Simo next to him didn't care about these things. He just waved his hand casually and pointed to the front of the carriage.

"How amazing! This carriage can actually run by itself."

In fact, when the carriage carrying the senior students left just now, the three little wizards were wondering whether this was some kind of magic.

Now that I'm sitting in the carriage, I feel that it is very similar to a real carriage, but I can't see any horses pulling the carriage in front.

"There is a horse, but you can't see it."

Moon had spotted the Thestral pulling the cart before he even got on.

The horse looked exactly like the one he had seen in the magic mirror.

There was no flesh on its body, and the black fur was tightly attached to the skeleton, so that every bone was clearly visible.

There was a pair of large, black, tough wings growing out of the bulge between the shoulder bones, making it look like it belonged to a giant bat.

"Is that it? The one you saw in the book!"

As soon as Moon finished speaking, Hermione's eyes widened instantly and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.

"That's right, Thestrals!"

Hermione became very excited when she heard Moon's final answer.

She quickly walked to the front of the carriage, wanting to reach out and touch what the Thestral looked like.

"Wait! It's looking at us."

Just when Hermione was about to touch the Thestral's body, the magical creature turned its head and revealed its pure white eyes.

Because there are no pupils in the eyes of the Thestrals, Moon could not read any deep meaning from these eyes.

However, the four little wizards heard the Thestral's subsequent neigh.

"Did it reject me?"

Hermione just wanted to experience what the magical beasts recorded in the books looked like, but she never thought of provoking them.

She had withdrawn her hand by now and looked at Moon blankly.

"Maybe not."

The other three young wizards had no idea what was going on, but Moon was certain that the Thestral seemed to be interested in him.

Just as Hermione reached out to pet the Thestral, Moon also fiddled with the magical animal's tail, which was swinging back and forth.

But after just a touch, Ye Qi immediately stopped pulling the cart.

"Whew, wow, wow—" (Such a familiar feeling. I can give you one.)
Before Moon knew how to explain to his three good friends, Thestral had already grabbed a tuft of black tail hair with his teeth and stuffed it into his hand.

"Wait, this."

Moon was about to refuse when the Thestral turned and pulled the cart forward at high speed, leaving it far behind the group ahead. The cart suddenly started moving, and Moon lost his balance and fell backwards. Seamus quickly helped him up.

"Did it give you something?"

When Moon sat down again, Hermione lowered her head to look at the hand that Moon had not fully grasped.

The Thestrals are very magical. According to the book, people who have not experienced death will not see them at all.

Even the tail hair that has left its body has this characteristic.

"Yes, it gave me a little tuft of its tail hair."

Moon said as he spread his palms in front of his three friends.

"Tail hair! Did you pull it out? How painful must that be."

Seamus said, taking a deep breath.

"Is that the point? Seamus, think about it, this is the Thestral's tail hair. Whatever it can do, it must be very valuable."

Hermione and Seamus also have a very good relationship.

In this semester's Potions class, various accidents often occurred because of Neville and Seamus.

As partners, Moon and Hermione are often able to avoid disaster at critical moments.

So when Hermione spoke in an accusatory tone, Seamus just curled his lips helplessly.

As for Hermione at this time, she had already reached out to the Thestral's tail hair.

"Are you sure this is animal hair? The temperature is too low."

Hermione immediately pulled her hand back after just a touch.

She felt that what Moon held in his hand was colder than the ice on the Black Lake.

"Of course it is. It's still very fresh."

Moon joked, then spread his hands out and continued to pass them to Seamus and Neville.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in cold things."

Seamus waved his hand, and Neville, who was standing next to him, shrank back in fear when he saw Moon's hand reaching out.

"My uncle said the Thestrals are ominous creatures and told me not to get close to them."

Neville clenched his hands tightly as he spoke. Even though he was very curious, he always kept in mind the warnings of his elders.

[Thestrals bring all sorts of terrible disasters to those who see them. They are bad omens! - Algie Longbottom]

"Uh, okay, next time could you please not say that in front of the Thestrals?"

Just as Neville was speaking, the Thestral neighed.

Moon was too embarrassed to translate it for Neville because the Thestrals' curses were so harsh.

As Moon spoke, he tore a piece of paper from his notebook, wrapped it around the Thestral's tail hair, and opened the suitcase to put the paper inside.

Boom!
The carriage passed over a small ditch, and the wheels made a dull sound.

"Ouch! Okay, I'll try to only say this in front of you guys from now on."

Neville was just dodged for a moment, and then added something without understanding why.

Dong~dong~dong~dong~dong~
Before Moon could remind him, the carriage had already passed over several ditches and rocks in succession, and the speed was getting faster and faster.

"I remember the road to school wasn't that difficult to walk on."

Seamus held the edge of the carriage tightly with both hands, and his voice trembled as his body rose and fell.

"In fact, whether you can speak or not also determines whether the road ahead will be smooth."

Moon has discovered that the Thestrals are specifically seeking revenge.

This magical animal would rather choose the edge of the bumpy road than walk in the center of the smooth road.

Of course, Moon couldn't blame the other party, after all, it was all caused by his friend.

Fortunately, the remaining road is not very far.

When they arrived at Hogsmeade Station, the Thestral braked suddenly, earning the last screams from the little wizards, and then left with a triumphant snort.
