The Silent Witch of Hogwarts

Chapter 609 The Hamilton Family

Loila hadn't visited the Hamilton family for a while, nor had she spoken with Miss Shirley—so long that she even began to wonder if she had been forgotten.

But when she arrived at the Hamilton family estate, she found that things were not quite as she had imagined.

The manor was bustling with activity, with wizards coming and going in an endless stream. These wizards hurried along the corridors, and soon another group of wizards would arrive.

What's going on here? Everyone looks so busy!

"Head of the Loila family?" At that moment, a wizard saw Loila and quickly bowed respectfully, saying, "Are you here to see Miss Shirei?"

"Ah—yes—yes, yes." When a stranger spoke to her, Loila stammered a little unconsciously.

"Then please follow me," the wizard said. "Miss Siri is in her office on the second floor."

Following this wizard, Loila saw many other wizards hurrying by. These wizards would all pause noticeably upon seeing Loila, then immediately greet her, "Greetings, Head of the Loila Clan!"

"What's going on?" Loila finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice on the way, "Why does everyone look so... in such a hurry?"

"Patriarch Roy—this is of course because—" the wizard paused, "Let Miss Siri explain this to you."

"Huh?"

Is there any more surprises?

With Loila's increasingly curious expression, they arrived at the office door.

Four wizards stood at the office door. They were wizards sent by the Rozier family. Seeing the four of them, Loila felt a sense of familiarity after a long time.

Upon seeing Loila, they simply nodded slightly, without even asking any questions, and directly opened the door to the room.

"Um?"

hope Rui, who was sitting behind the table, was clearly stunned for a moment, then looked up at the door.

"Loila—Miss Loila?!" Upon seeing Loila, her eyes widened as if she could hardly believe it, and then she quickly rubbed her eyes.

After confirming that it really was Loila, she practically pounced on her.

"Ugh!"

Loila was startled by her actions and quickly raised her wand to block the somewhat overly excited young lady from the outside.

"Miss Loila! It's been so long since we last met! You haven't forgotten us? I thought you'd completely forgotten us! I've been thinking about you day and night, wanting to chat with you, wanting to have tea with you. I even cut out your newspaper and pasted it in my room just so I could see your face. You're so adorable! Your hair, your eyes, your appearance, even that slightly disgusted expression right now—I just love it! Miss Loila! Miss Loila!"

what----

This is so troublesome!

Fortunately, the door to the room had already been closed by then, otherwise, if someone else had seen this scene—Loila felt she might not want to live anymore.

"Um—um, calm down a little."

Loila spoke up, reminding him, "I'm here on important business."

"Ah—it's important!" Upon hearing this word, Xirui immediately pursed her lips and revealed a serious expression, as if the strange look just now was some kind of illusion of Loyla.

But Roy was certain—she would never forget what had just happened—

"You're here because of Hogwarts, right?" Shirley asked first.

"Hmm...hmm?" Why does Xirui already know?

"This has already been reported in the newspapers," Shire said, pulling out a newspaper.

No way—why is there a big hole in the newspaper?!

"Here is your photo—I've kept it."

"."

'

Loila remained silent for a few seconds, then ultimately chose to pretend she hadn't heard. She would never ask where the photo was used.

However, after missing the big hole, the newspaper headline came into view.

"Audacious madman! Loila Hamilton and Hogwarts openly oppose the Ministry of Magic!"

"The First Half of the Life of Criminal Loila Hamilton!"

"Loila Hamilton, the abandoned pawn."

What kind of headlines are these?!

Loila wished she could storm the headquarters of the Daily Prophet right now and give each of the reporters who wrote these articles a fatal curse.

"In short, we already know about this," Shirley said succinctly. "And the Ministry of Magic came here specifically this morning."

"Here? They—have they done anything dangerous?" Loila asked quickly.

"Not yet." hope Rui smiled gently. "We just had a friendly chat."

"They don't want us to help Hogwarts."

Is that so? — Then — then does that mean I can't get anything from the Hamilton family? — Roy subconsciously felt a little disappointed.

Seeing her expression, Shirley shrugged: "But what is the Ministry of Magic anyway?"

"Um?"

"I was wondering what the Ministry of Magic was all about," Shirley said, looking into Loila's eyes. "You're the one who made me the head of the Hamilton family, and you're the one who helped the Hamilton family prosper again through magic."

"Your birth is a great miracle, a gift from Merlin, your—"

"Okay, okay—no—stop talking!" Realizing something was wrong, Lori quickly pulled Shiri aside and said, "Um—so, are you willing to help Hogwarts?"

"Ah—Miss Loila is holding my hand!"

'

""

Loila quickly let go of his hand.

"Cough cough—" hope Rui also came to her senses and quickly coughed: "You're right—the Hamilton family is ready for battle."

"With just your command, hundreds of wizards can help you in battle."

"We can even infiltrate the Ministry of Magic," Shirley said, bowing slightly. "They are all professionally trained wizards equipped with magic arrays."

"The Ministry of Magic is no match for us."

"Miss Loila is ours!"

Wow! So handsome!

But it really felt strange coming from Miss Xirui's mouth!

However, as for wizards—Loy didn't want their support—mainly because she didn't want to involve the Hamilton family—after all, as the head of the family, she had almost never cared about the family's fate.

And then, at this crucial moment, they run back and ask them to risk their lives for them—

Loila pursed her lips and said, "Um—I didn't come here to request wizard manpower."

"Hmm?" Xirui blinked. "You mean?"

"I've come to request supplies," Loila said, pursing her lips. "The barrier necklace—and various kinds of food and water."

"These things are very important."

"—" After a few seconds of silence, Shirley said, "You really don't need wizard support?"

"I don't want to involve you in this matter," Loila said after thinking for a moment.

hope Rui blinked upon hearing this: "You know what? You're getting cuter and cuter."

"Huh?"

"We've received a lot of help from you—" Xirui said slowly, "It's just fighting alongside you."

"This is what we should do," she said, nodding as if she understood something. "However, we will obey your orders unconditionally."

"Please let us know when you launch your counterattack on the Ministry of Magic," she said with a smile.
