Hogwarts wizards who signed in to Middle-earth.

Chapter 326 How to go back?

Billton happily accepted the two strands of hair, then waived the cost of Alanier and Anlomir's wands and saw everyone off.

After the two families left the wand shop, Aragorn felt a little embarrassed, since he had originally intended to pay for the two wands, but the elf couple had paid for them with their hair.

So Aragorn, along with Anlomir and Alanil, went to the Magical Beasts Shop in Diagon Alley.

Not only do they sell all kinds of owls, but they also sell fire snakes, fire lizards, invisible toads, rabbits that can turn into hats, fire crabs inlaid with gems, dancing jumping mice, cats, and other animals.

These animals were bred by wizards and possess a little bit of magic.

In addition, the shop owner also received magical hybridization techniques from Dui, and bred more Pegasus, Hippogriffs and other animals.

However, these large magical creatures are generally not sold in stores, but are pre-ordered.

Pegasus, beloved by the elves, almost entirely flowed to the Valley of the Dead and Lorien;
The winged horse with a hippopotamus head became the exclusive mount of the Black Barbarian tribe.

Getting back to the main point, Aragorn bought a hawk-owl for Anlomir and a snow owl for the elf Alanir at the Magical Beasts Shop.

"The customer has excellent taste!" The shopkeeper's smile grew even more genuine and enthusiastic as he watched the two most expensive owls in the store being purchased.

"These two owls are of extraordinary origin. They are both descendants of the great snowy owls kept by the lord of Hogwarts Castle. One is a hybrid of a great snowy owl and a hawk owl, and the other is a hybrid of a great snowy owl and a common snowy owl."

The Great Snowy Owl is said to have been a species of owl once unique to Númenóre. Now, in the entire Middle-earth, only Hogwarts Castle has it. Their descendants are smarter and better fliers than other owls, and they never get lost, making them the best helpers for delivering messages and things!

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, the two children liked their respective owls even more.

Aragon's eyes flickered upon hearing this. As the chieftain of the northern Dunedan people and a direct descendant of the royal family of the Kingdom of Arnor, he had naturally visited Anuminas, the former capital of the Kingdom of Arnor.

I've also heard from the tribespeople stationed there that Duir kidnapped a group of great snow owls living there and brought them to live on Fengyun Peak.

These birds, which once lived on Númenor Island, hold a special significance in the hearts of the Dúnedan people, who are descendants of the Númenorians.

After purchasing the owl, the group bought other equipment for starting school.

Like them, other families who received acceptance letters also gathered in Diagon Alley today to buy equipment.

But once they had bought all the necessary equipment for enrollment, a problem arose: how would they get back?

Aragorn looked at the silver badge that had brought them here earlier and wondered if he was going to use it to teleport back.
But there's been no sign of any activity regarding the badge.

However, they soon received guidance.

At both ends of Diagon Alley, and along the streets, there are Aurors patrolling in uniform.

When the Aurors see those bewildered new families, they will take the initiative to help them.

Guided by the Aurors, Aragorn and his companions walked to the western end of Diagon Alley and arrived at the Ministry of Magic tower.

The incredibly spacious lobby on the first floor left everyone who entered in awe.

In the very center of the hall stood a magical fountain, with a majestic golden statue of Lord Duir riding a dragon, his wand spewing out a thin stream of gold that fell into the fountain.

The pool also contained many coins, mostly bronze nats and silver sicos, with a small number of gold galleons.

It's unclear who started it, but this fountain pool has become a wishing well. Wizards often throw a coin into the pool and then make a wish upon the lord's golden statue.

Although it has no practical significance, people still do it with great enthusiasm. As a result, a thick layer of coins has accumulated in the pool.

These coins are periodically salvaged and then donated to the Wizard Hospital—Twintree Hospital—as a medical fund.

Twin Trees Hospital was established at the initiative of Dui, and its director is Mrs. Amanda, who has the best medical magic skills.

Although it is called a wizard hospital, the patients receiving treatment are not limited to wizards, but also include all the people in the Dui territory.

In the main hall of the Ministry of Magic, besides the magical fountain, there is a long row of fireplaces along the wall.

Every now and then, someone would emerge from the fireplace, or someone would walk into the fireplace and disappear.

The hall had a spotless floor that was so shiny you could see your reflection in it. People were hurrying around, and there were owls and papers flying around.

Aragon and his companions arrived at the reception desk and, as requested by the receptionist, presented the students' admission notices for verification.

After registering, I followed the signs and took the elevator to the Department of Magical Transportation.

The staff of the Department of Transportation did not neglect these people. They explained in detail to the group who had purchased their school supplies and needed to go home: "Considering the inconvenience of transportation home for everyone, our Ministry of Magic provides several transportation options."

"One option is to go to the door key office and apply for a door key to return home, which will allow you to go directly home."

The second option is to ride our company's Knight Bus. All you need is a wand; simply extend it from the roadside, and the Knight Bus will appear and safely take you home.

"Of course, there is one last, more convenient way, which is that you can apply to our company to connect your fireplace to the Floo Network. Our company will then send personnel to your home to activate the Floo Network."

From now on, you can use the fireplace to travel between the house and other fireplaces, and it will also make it easier for your children to attend Hogwarts Castle or go to Diagon Alley to buy school supplies.

"I wonder what you guys think?"

Upon hearing this from the Transport Department staff, almost all families with newborns chose to apply for FlyRoad.

After all, who would refuse a way to instantly travel thousands of miles? Not to mention the child's situation is taken into consideration.

Upon receiving responses from the parents of the new students, the staff of the Transport Department became even more enthusiastic.

After all, being able to promote the Flyway network is a performance achievement for the staff of their Transportation Department.

After all the parents of the new students had applied for the FlyRoad website, the staff of the Department of Transportation immediately said:

"Over the next few days, our staff will visit your homes to turn on your fireplaces. We recommend that you purchase enough Floo Powder in advance so that you can use your fireplaces as soon as they are turned on."

Now, if you're in a hurry, you can go to the door key office, pick up a door key, and return home immediately. But if you're not in a rush, I suggest trying the Knight Bus; it'll be a different experience!

Having secured a major deal, the transportation department employee was in high spirits and cheerfully recommended the deal to everyone.

Upon hearing his words, everyone recalled their previous experience with the door key and felt lingering fear. They really didn't want to experience that extreme dizziness and the torment of having to recover for at least half an hour afterward.

Therefore, they all chose another mode of transportation.

Aragon and his family, including Anlomir, also chose to take the Knight Bus.

As for the Alanir family, they lived in the Valley of the Dead and had fireplaces installed there. After saying goodbye to Aragorn and the others, they returned to the Valley of the Dead via the Floo Network.
