Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 94 Captain Gold

The suspicion about Snape soon dissipated in the lives of the young wizards.

The one who was most suspicious was Harry, but in two weeks he would have his first Quidditch match.

The heavy daily practice left him with no energy to think about other things.

Moon didn't pay much attention to this matter. In his opinion, instead of doubting the professor, it would be better to learn more magic.

After completing the scheduled training program on Sunday, Moon returned to Xilin that evening.
-
The next day after returning, Moon and Zalan came to the dock southwest of Xilin.

As the closest intermediate station for land-to-sea transportation to Liuyun City, Xilin Wharf is very prosperous.

This place not only handles the trade of the entire Liuyun City, but also the minerals of the Black Iron City further north are sold from here to more distant places.

It is precisely because of this that the pier has a particularly large flow of people every day.

"I think the clothes I had before were very good, why did I have to make another set like this?"

As he walked to Xilin Wharf, Moon couldn't help but complain about the cumbersome clothes on his body.

Zalan asked Daisy to prepare a black dress and a large black cloak for Moon yesterday.

After getting up this morning, Moon was asked to dress neatly.

"We're here to discuss business, how can we do this without dressing you up?"

"But won't this expose us? Didn't you say that magicians are best kept hidden?"

Looking at Zalan's satisfied expression, Moon couldn't help but complain.

"How could that be? This is the standard attire for the upper class in the Federation when going out."

"But I think the original clothes are good. At least they won't hinder me from casting spells."

Moon's original clothes were simple drawstring styles, which did not hinder him from taking out his wand and waving it.

But now that he was wearing the formal gown, the tight underarms made it very uncomfortable for him to move, and the wide cloak also hindered his arms and wand.

【Magicians must be equipped with cloaks.】

Moon didn't know why the two worlds had the same habits.

Although during the winter at Hogwarts, all students also wear a cloak.

But Moon still felt that this piece of clothing was useless. Apart from being able to conceal the wand well, it was almost useless.

"Your fighting skills have actually been practiced very well. As long as you can make sure that you can reach an agreement with Gold today, then this dress will not be a loss."

After dealing with Night Owl, Zalan rarely interfered with Moon's training.

He thought that all Moon had to do now was continue to train according to the steps.

Of course, Zalan believes that the most important thing is to experience a real war, so that Moon can make greater progress.

And today, Moon was brought to the dock in the hope of winning another kind of war.

The seventy-three people from Veteran Alley will go to sea with Moon and Zalan.

This is not only complicated to implement, but also very expensive.

In the past, it cost five federal gold coins per person to sail from Xilin Wharf to the Vena Islands.

And now that war is coming, the price will only go higher.

However, Zalan is very confident that with Moon here this time, he will definitely be able to get a reasonable price.

After arriving at the dock, Moon saw dozens of two-masted and three-masted sailing ships queuing up to enter the port.

In addition to the passengers boarding the ship, there are also many dock workers transporting goods at the dock.

Zalan led Moon forward. Gold, whom they were looking for, had returned to the port three days ago. They had been purchasing goods during this period.

"Why do you think these ocean-going ships are looking for magicians?"

As he followed Zalan further and further along the dock, Moon couldn't help but become curious.

"Of course, it's to deal with possible dangers at sea, to identify directions, and to find out if there's a lack of medical care or medicine. In the absence of a doctor, finding a magician is the best option."

"But I don't know how to treat illnesses, and I can't make potions right now."

"Of course I know that, but besides these things, there are also pirates and even sirens at sea. For these ocean-going ships, if there is a magician, everything will be easily resolved."

"Siren? Does such a thing really exist?" Moon automatically ignored the news from the pirates. In his opinion, the siren was a magical creature, which was very helpful for him to understand the world.

"I don't know. I just heard it from others."

Gold is a very powerful captain at Xilin Wharf.

He had three schooners under his command, the Thorn, the Seagull, and the Goddess.

Because the cargo volume was very large each time, Gold had to sail the ship to the deeper sea and find more people to sell the goods.

Because of this, his ship became the busiest place for dock workers.

After following Zalan through a wooden plank that only allowed one person to reach the deck, Moon stared intently at the large ship in front of him.

The space on the deck is very spacious and can accommodate about 500 people.

There is a wooden house built on each side of the deck, front and back.

Next to the wooden house at the rear is the staircase leading to the cabin below.

Watching the dock workers constantly moving goods downwards, Moon knew that the space below must be very large.

When Moon and Zalan boarded the ship, Gold was standing on a high place inspecting the handling of the cargo.

After seeing Zalan coming up, he immediately came to the deck from the captain's room on the second floor.

Gold wore a black tricorn hat with an unknown colorful bird feather decorated on the corner.

When the captain saw Zalan, the two of them first touched shoulders heavily before starting to communicate.

"I've been waiting for you to come. I hope you won't break your promise."

Gold had very dark skin and showed his white teeth when he spoke to Zalan.

"How could that be? Besides, I have brought the person you wanted to see today."

After hearing what Zalan said, Gold first looked at Moon curiously, and then came to Moon after getting Zalan's nod.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are the Master Magician."

Watching Gold bow his head, Moon just stood there and nodded.

This was the agreement between him and Zalan, that no matter what the other party asked, he must remain restrained.

"Mr. Magician, you are most welcome to the Thorn. If you wish to go to the Vena Islands, we will not charge any fees."

Gold looked at Zalan after he finished speaking and continued.

"Oh, and your guardian won't be charged either."

"That's not enough, Gold. We agreed that you had to reserve at least eighty seats for us."

When Zalan heard that Gold had gone back on his word, his face instantly turned ugly.

However, Gold did not refuse directly. Instead, he told her about his difficulties.

"I'm so sorry. I don't know why there are so many people going out to sea this time. We really don't have enough space."

Gold's tone was very humble, but his attitude was extremely resolute.

Zalan did not continue bargaining with the other party, but turned to look at Moon.

"Your Excellency, the Honorable Magician, they feel that you are too young to possess much magical power. If you don't mind, please show off a little of your skills."

Listening to Zalan's slightly teasing voice, Moon tried to keep a serious expression.

On the way here, Zalan said that he would probably have to show some magic, otherwise it would be difficult to make the deal.

After receiving Zalan's signal, Moon just nodded and started looking for someone on the ship to cast a spell on.

The ship was full of wood, and ordinary spells had no effect at all.

But in addition to the wood, there were also many sailors and crew members.

After seeing these people, Moon's eyes lit up.
