He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 185 Heading to Hogwarts (First Update)

"Tom!"

Upon seeing Li Chuan, Newt immediately patted the horse-shaped water monster on the head, and the monster gently led him to the shore.

"Newt, only you can make it so docile."

Li Chuan took two steps closer and smiled.

New York possesses a unique quality that makes even the most volatile magical creatures docile in his presence. This is not only because he understands magical creatures, but also because of his genuine concern for them.

Magical creatures differ from ordinary creatures, perhaps because of magic; they are more sensitive.

The reality is that no matter how friendly Li Chuan appears, most magical animals are very wary of him.

Because deep down, he didn't differentiate between magical creatures and ordinary creatures. In his view, as long as something threatened his safety, even if it was a rare creature with only one left in the world, he wouldn't hesitate to kill it.

Another possibility is that he has killed too many people, which humans cannot sense, but sensitive magical creatures can, so they will not get close to him.

"You can do it too."

Newt climbed off the kelpie, patted its head, and then cast a spell to instantly evaporate all the moisture from his body.

After Newt came ashore, the horse-shaped water monster instinctively bared its teeth at Li Chuan and let out a threatening roar, seemingly quite afraid of him.

Li Chuan didn't care. He swiftly stepped forward and grabbed the horse-shaped water monster's mouth, preventing it from attacking him. Then, he smiled and raised his hand to rub the horse-shaped water monster's mane.

"You little darling, can't you be a little nicer to me? You're my favorite of all these little guys!"

With Li Chuan holding its mouth, the horse-shaped water monster tried to roll its massive body to break free, but found that no matter how hard it tried, Li Chuan's hand wouldn't budge. In the end, it had no choice but to obediently let Li Chuan forcibly pat its head.

"It's just that everyone has a different approach."

Newt, having dried his clothes, looked at the horse-shaped water monster, whose mouth had been held shut by Li Chuan, and helplessly uttered the last sentence.

Many of the magical creatures he has are dangerous and have bad tempers. Even Bonty, who often comes to help take care of and feed them, gets hurt by them.

But Li Chuan was an exception. He also liked the magical animals here and often came to help feed them. However, he guessed that he might have the blood of some other magical animal in his body, either a giant or a troll.

The basis for this is his terrifyingly strong strength.

Therefore, most magical creatures might feel threatened and be reluctant to let Li Chuan get close, or even attack him.

But Li Chuan always managed to quiet them down quickly, even though his methods differed from his own.

Why didn't Clyde Credence come with you today?

After the two returned to the living room upstairs, Newt didn't see Credence, who always followed behind Li Chuan, and asked in surprise.

Li Chuan poured himself a cup of tea:

"I recently adopted a wizard orphan, and he's been helping take care of him at home, so he couldn't come this time."

"You've adopted another child?"

Newt looked somewhat surprised. Li Chuan was only in his twenties and hadn't even had a girlfriend or gotten married yet, but he had already adopted two children.

Li Chuan smiled:

"Just like you see those poor magical creatures brought back, I see those poor children sometimes doing the same thing."

The child's mother was a witch who died when she gave birth to him. His father was a Muggle who left after his mother forced him into a family with a love potion.

I felt it would be too pitiful to leave him in the Muggle orphanage, so I adopted him. Anyway, there aren't many people left in our family.

"Tom, you're such a kind person!"

Newt looked at Li Chuan and couldn't help but sigh.

From the moment he met Li Chuan until now, Li Chuan has always struck him as a perfect person, even more perfect than his brother, a war hero.

"So sometimes I actually agree with Grindelwald. The Law of Secrecy isn't a very good law; it always leads to some tragedies between wizards and Muggles."

Of course, Grindelwald is too extreme. It would be great if Muggles and wizards could live together openly and peacefully one day.

Li Chuan sighed.

He often brought up this idea in front of Newt because he knew that both Newt and Dumbledore shared this view.

It's worth noting that when Dumbledore was young, he also had the ideal of reforming the wizarding world together with Grindelwald. However, this ideal was extinguished by Grindelwald's overly extreme attitude towards Muggles and the death of his sister.

He wanted to make Newt and Dumbledore understand that they were the same kind of people.

Newt nodded in agreement upon hearing Li Chuan's exclamation.

He also disliked the rules and regulations of the Secret Law, which is why he was unwilling to join the Ministry of Magic. However, he had no prejudice against Muggles; for example, his friend Jacob was a Muggle.

"Newt, I'd like to visit Professor Dumbledore. Are you free to come along today?"

"available!"

Newt's eyes lit up immediately. He was worried about how to refuse his enthusiastic brother's invitation to have dinner with the girl he used to like, who is now his sister-in-law.

"Dumbledore mentioned you in three of his letters to me; he really wants to meet you."

"Let's set off now. It's been a long time since we've been back to Hogwarts."

Li Chuan immediately stood up and made the suggestion.

Newt readily agreed, wrote a note for the witch Bonty to send to her brother, and then Apparated with Li Chuan to the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley.

There are usually four ways for wizards to get to Hogwarts. One way is the Hogwarts Express, but this is only for young wizards going to school and teachers who are going there on the way.

Secondly, there are Pegasus carriages, a common mode of transport used by a few wealthy wizards and wizards from the Ministry of Magic.

Thirdly, there is Apparition, but Hogwarts has the most powerful anti-Apparition spell in the world, so you can only enter from outside the school on foot, and the distance cannot be too far.

The fourth, and most common, method is using Floo powder. Normally, the Floo network at Hogwarts is disconnected, so you need to go to Hogsmeade first and then walk to Hogwarts.

These four methods are the most commonly used. There are also some more unusual ones, which are basically exceptions, such as flying brooms, magic cars, and magic motorcycles.

Li Chuan and Newt chose the fourth option. They Apparated to the Leaky Cauldron and used Floo Powder to travel directly to Hogsmeade through the fireplace.

Newt's fireplace doesn't have a Flooway network, or rather, most wizarding homes don't have one. Otherwise, it would be too unsafe if someone could just call your house by name and come to your house.

Unless your family is relatively poor and you don't have anything worth worrying about, then it doesn't matter.

Moreover, most wizarding communities have public fireplaces, like the Leaky Cauldron.
