Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 80 The Captain's Conditions

Moon had no idea what became of Friar Leyden.

He only knew that after Zalan came back, he added a new arrow to his quiver.

Neil was also very excited when he came back, especially after he knew what was going on with the clothes in Daisy's hand. He made an exception and let Moon drink rye.

Rye is a crop widely grown in the southern part of the Snow Eagle Mountains. Because it has low brewing costs and is not suitable as a staple food, it has become the main raw material for brewing in this area.

In addition, due to technical reasons, the alcohol content of rye wine is not high, only more than 30 degrees.

Moon had never touched alcohol before, because children were not allowed to touch alcohol, whether at Hogwarts or Xilin.

But today no one stopped Moon from drinking glass after glass of rye.

Moon had forgotten what Neil said that night. The only thing he remembered was that there were two empty clay wine bottles in front of him.

Moon slept well that night.

This should be the best night of sleep Moon has ever had after a series of strange events.

However, the time for quiet rest did not last long. The next morning, before Moon woke up, Neil's yard was full of people again.

"I never thought I would be able to bury that monster in the ground with my own hands."

The person who spoke was Uncle Hall, who was about the same age as Zalan and had been in the army for a long time, so he knew very well how powerful the Night Owl was.

Whenever he thought about burying Night Owl with his own hands yesterday, his hands couldn't help but tremble.

"Me too. When we were moving his body yesterday, I was worried that he would suddenly wake up."

Uncle Walter also made a self-deprecating remark, but none of the veterans around him laughed.

These veterans had also heard about how [Night Owl] faked his death and resurrected, then resumed his frantic slaughter on the battlefield.

So even though they saw that Night Owl was hit by an arrow in the throat yesterday, they were still worried and stabbed him again.

But whether this was out of fear or to vent anger, only the veterans themselves knew.

The women who came along showed displeasure after hearing the conversation.

Especially when they saw some boys pestering the drinking men and asking them about the horror stories about the "Night Owl", the women had to interrupt them.

"What are you afraid of? Boys should listen to these things. No matter how powerful the Night Owl is, we will still bury him in the ground!"

The men's drunken lies were ultimately no match for the crazy accusations of a group of women.

So in the end, the story of "Night Owl" was forced to stop.

The subsequent wars and ocean voyages gradually became the mainstream of dinner table conversation.

No matter how you look at these two things, they cannot avoid Zalan and Moon.

However, the two men were still sleeping in the hut at this time.

Last night was Moon's first time to drink alcohol, so his reaction was quite strong, but Zalan drank up all of Neil's alcohol.

So much so that the banquet at Neil's house this afternoon was all rye liquor contributed by each household.

Moon finally woke up with his dizzy head at the end of the banquet.

Moon reached out and touched it, and found that the wand was still there, which made him feel relieved.

However, seeing that the hand holding the wand was trembling, Moon felt for the first time that he could not control his body.

"It seems I can't drink anymore."

Moon said this as he prepared to get up and go outside. He had already heard everyone's noisy voices.

This should be the busiest time in the alley in recent times.

The coming of war, food shortages, and even the appearance of the Night Owl, all these bad news weighed on their hearts again and again, leaving no laughter in the alley.

Today, although they knew that the war was getting closer, their families had made arrangements and [Night Owl] had been dealt with, which made the veterans feel relieved.

Of course, apart from this, the most important reason was that a [Spellcaster] appeared in the alley.

Especially since this spellcaster is the child they have watched grow up.

With all the things accumulated, this banquet gradually became a huge outlet for emotions. Bragging, chatting, telling stories, and talking about life.
Moon had seen similar scenes in British pubs, which gave him the illusion that men in every world were the same.

However, the cheerful atmosphere in the courtyard came to an abrupt end when Moon opened the door.

Faced with the sudden appearance of the spellcaster, everyone who was originally talking excitedly fell silent.

"Uncle Hall, what's going on? Is there something on my face?"

"Grandma Shava, did you bring all the smoked bacon from home?"

Moon didn't notice anything unusual on the table. The alcohol he drank yesterday made him feel very uncomfortable, and he just wanted to eat something to relieve it.

After Hall and his companions discovered that "Moon" was still Moon, the cheerful atmosphere was restored.

The banquet was extended again, and Moon's vow not to drink was broken again by the persuasion.

When Moon woke up again, it was already the next morning.

At this time, Zalan had rushed back from outside. After seeing Moon, he couldn't help but teasing him.

"Sir Spellcaster, how does it feel to be drunk?"

"Sir Spellcaster" was the name that the people at the table used to persuade Moon to drink yesterday.

Although Moon kept trying to explain that he was not a spellcaster, let alone a distinguished lord, the veteran in the alley didn't care at all.

Zalan was a little surprised when he saw this scene after waking up.

Because he had never seen a [caster] being forced to drink by a soldier.

In the federal army, spellcasters are directly awarded the rank of captain after graduating from the military academy.

For a private, it takes more than ten years of fighting on the battlefield to reach this point.

Take Neil for example. From the time he joined the army to the end of the war, he only earned the rank of warrant officer after ten years of war experience.

To a group of soldiers, Moon's appearance was no less than having a federal major general sitting next to them.

"not good at all."

Moon didn't know what Zalan was thinking, but he knew that all the wine in the alley had been consumed at yesterday's banquet.

So Moon's vow to quit drinking won't stand in the way this time.

"Mr. Spellcaster, now that you are awake, can I tell you about this long voyage?"

After dealing with Brother Leighton, Zalan went to the port to ask his acquaintances about Gold's ship.

It was not until this morning that he received the news that the other party had returned and docked.

So he went straight to the dock early this morning to discuss going out to sea by boat with Gold.

"Has the ship arrived yet? When do we leave?"

"Gold said they'll set sail again in three days, but because so many people have reserved their boat, I'm afraid the people in the alley can't join them."

Hearing Zalan say this, Moon hesitated for a moment.

"Is there no other way? The people in the alley must be together."

Most of the people who went out to sea to avoid the war were old and weak, and it was difficult to guarantee that no accidents would happen if they were not together.

After all, it takes at least ten days to sail to the Venetian Islands.

After seeing that Moon's attitude was very firm, Zalan smiled and explained again.

"Don't worry, I gave Gold a plan that will definitely agree to any conditions."

"What plan?"

"I said there's a mysterious magician in our team."
