Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 77 The Bait Wants to Be Eaten

That night, [Night Owl] still didn't come.

Although the hazelnut forest was very quiet all night, Moon did not have an easy night.

In order to ensure that the boy in the cabin is like a dazed prey, Zalan requires Moon to bear the pressure before the disaster alone.

So in the evening of the previous day, Zalan left the cabin and hid completely in the dense hazelnut forest.

It was only after Zalan left that Moon realized that he was not as powerful as he had imagined.

Moon didn't sleep well the whole night because he was worried that the Night Owl would suddenly appear.

By the next morning, Moon had two dark circles under his eyes and a sense of determination in his heart.

He now even hoped that Night Owl would appear soon so that he wouldn't have to endure the torment anymore.

When setting the trap yesterday, Moon had thought about how to lure the other party into taking the bait.

At that time, he considered asking Zalan to shoot arrows at the gate of the monastery and pass the note to Night Owl.

But as soon as he said it, Zalan denied it.

Because the two of them designed everything, including the dense traps around them, just to confuse each other.

Let [Night Owl] think that there is only a dying little boy here.

While eating the leftover rice porridge from last night, Moon couldn't help but think of yesterday's method again.

Although he is the bait now, if the fish does not come, he will most likely be washed away by the surrounding water first.

However, [Night Owl] still proved his ability, or Brad's escape made the other party realize something.

Moon had just finished breakfast when a dull knocking sound came from the door of the wooden house.

Walking out and taking a look at the pebbles on the ground, Moon knew that someone was approaching the farm.

Hitting the wooden house with inconspicuous stones was the method Zalan and Moon agreed upon yesterday to convey information.

Following the route he remembered and avoiding all the traps, Moon arrived at the farm gate.

"Brother Leighton, what brings you here?"

The person who came was the white-robed monk who was in charge of all servants in the Xilin Monastery.

When Moon went to find Brad, he saw him assigning tasks to all the servants.

It was this monk who assigned Brad to look up the birth records of Xilin’s population.

"Oh, I came here to ask if Brad, the horse breeder, is still here after leaving the monastery."

"Brad? He hasn't been here. Maybe he went home?"

"Probably not. There's no one at his home."

"Then I don't know either."

"Well, if you see him, tell him I'm looking for him."

"Ok."

As Brother Leighton spoke, his eyes were fixed on Moon's right hand, which was hidden behind his back.

Because of the light, he could see a short stick shadow appear in Moon's shadow.

Moon also noticed the other person's gaze. After gently adjusting the angle of his wrist, the shadow of the stick disappeared, and then he watched the other person leave with a smile.

However, the fat monk Leighton was obviously not so easy to deceive. After taking three steps, he returned again.

"Oh right! Your name is Moon Scarlett, right?"

"Yes."

"Your birth information is lost. If you have time, remember to come to the monastery to make a new one."

"Ok."

After Moon agreed, Brother Leighton turned around and left decisively, and his pace became faster and faster.

Brother Leighton was sure he had noticed something unusual; he had never seen a man who had lost his identification be so quiet.

Because he didn't know the situation on the farm, he had no choice but to return first.

However, he believed that just by bringing back this news, it would be enough for him to accumulate enough merit to leave Xilin.

"I didn't expect to encounter a level three mission in this shabby place."

After watching Leighton leave, Moon returned to the cabin along the same route.

As he was about to open the door, a small stone hit him on the head.

Moon knew this was a signal from Zalan to him.

"Thank you for the compliment. I know my acting is okay." Moon said to the empty room, and then another stone hit him.

Moon accepted all of Zaran's compliments.

He was now also very sure that the ferocious catfish that came to Xilin had received the news.

Whenever night falls, some small animals always appear on the farm.

Fox, wild cat, field mouse, red squirrel, nightingale.
Even though Moon had consumed a lot of energy practicing spells, it seemed like he could never hunt all these little guys down.

So when Moon usually slept in the cabin, he was always accompanied by the sounds of various small animals.

These sounds of nature arrived as expected tonight, and they were supposed to resound until dawn.

But when the crescent moon appeared in the center of the sky, a dull sound startled all the animals.

Boom!
This is the sound of a large suspended stone falling to the ground.

Moon perked up immediately after hearing the voice.

He participated in the creation of every trap in the surrounding area, so he knew exactly what this sound meant.

Holding the wand tightly in his hand, Moon walked out of the cabin resolutely.

Shortly after the sound of the stone falling to the ground, there was a series of sounds including wood falling to the ground, wooden arrows flying, iron nails colliding, and wood breaking.

Moon faced the direction of the sound and slowly turned around.

Because of the darkness, he couldn't see the specific situation in the distance, but he knew that the other party was showing off his skills!

【The bet was right! 】

Moon muttered to himself, then looked in the direction where the sound last came from.

"There are so many traps. I'm sure you tried your best."

A hoarse voice came from the darkness, and then a man covered in black walked out of the woods.

"You're not that him!"

Moon could tell from the other person's figure that this was not the same person as the "Night Owl" he met in the cave.

"Oh, you mean the cripple, right? I've already helped him out."

Although he had long known that Night Owl was inhumane, the fact that he killed his companions once again refreshed Moon's cognition.

"Don't worry, I'm not here to kill you. As long as you come with me, I will make sure nothing happens to you."

Maybe the magic wand in Moon's hand played a role, and the [Night Owl] on the opposite side did not take action directly.

But his words surprised Moon a little.

Instead of killing yourself, take it away.

It is very likely that the other party is interested in other things, and what Moon really has is something related to magic.

Seeing Moon standing still, Night Owl sneered.

"Don't struggle. I already know you have an uncle, an aunt, and a cousin."

Hearing that Night Owl was actually threatening his relatives, Moon took two deep breaths and stared at the other party seriously.

"I need to get some more things."

"Oh, don't even think about running away. This forest is huge, but I've broken all the traps. I'm sure I can catch you before you get out of the forest."

"I didn't mean to run away. I just needed to pack up some tools for making potions."

"Potion?"

After hearing the potion, [Night Owl]'s voice became noticeably higher.

"The tools are in the house, I need to clean them up."

"Okay, I hope you don't play tricks."

After getting the consent of Night Owl, Moon knew that his guess was correct. The other party came for the magic on him.

To be more precise, I came here for the only copy of Hogwarts magic in the world.

Moon slowly backed away, holding his wand. He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he walked into the cabin and closed the door.

"Don't waste time, get your stuff and come out quickly!"

The voice of [Night Owl] sounded again.

But there was no one in the cabin.
