Hogwarts: Hermione and I switched identities!

What? Draco?

Who is that? I don't know him.

The unicorn only had eyes for Tom, who had saved its life. Without Tom, it would have died at Voldemort's hands.

Lowering his voice, Tom patted the unicorn's forehead: "But it's amazing that you were able to recognize me."

"Mo!"

The unicorn's eyes are curved at the corners.

It doesn't recognize "Hermione's" body, but rather "Tom's" soul.

"Draco, let's go. It says the dragon is hibernating down there. Be careful not to wake it up."

The top of the Momo Mountains is a huge volcanic crater.

The crater is not yet ready to erupt, and it is currently quiet, like a rockery.

However, there was still some warmth, and there was no snow accumulation above the crater.

At this point, Draco backed down: "Forget it, Tom, we'll just take a look from up there."

"What's there to be afraid of? I'm not afraid at all. The unicorn said there's a fire dragon inside. The fire dragon is sleeping soundly on this day, and it won't wake up unless you do something outrageous."

Draco: "...What if it wakes up?"

"The volcano has erupted, and we won't see the sun tomorrow."

"...Then let's forget about it."

Tom pouted, "If you're not going, I'll go by myself. You wait for me up there. If you encounter any other scary magical creatures, remember not to cry. That way you can die with some dignity. I'll offer you incense."

Without waiting for Draco's reply, Tom cast a Featherfall Spell on himself and floated down into the mountain pass.

"wait for me!!!"

Draco quickly grabbed Tom and they descended into the mountain pass together.

The weather inside and outside the cave is completely different.

The sweltering heat made Draco pull open his sleeves.

Nevertheless, Draco was still covered in sweat.

"Should I shut up in this place?"

Tom nodded and whispered, "There will be an echo. It's best to keep quiet if you can. Just observe. If you have anything to say, go outside and say it."

The volcanic rocks underfoot were extremely hot, and Tom frowned as he walked on them.

The wall was covered with countless unfamiliar characters.

In the very center of this open space, a fire dragon coiled up, its long tail beside its head, and the enormous pounding of its heart sent chills down Draco's spine.

The fiery red scales were eye-catching, and even with Tom's willpower, it took him several seconds to finally look away.

I really want to raise one...

However, dragons need to be raised from a young age to be properly trained. If you raise a large one from the start... what if it gets hungry one day and wants to find something to eat?

Tom wasn't interested in the fire dragon, but rather in the strange runes on the wall.

It's less like runes and more like a kind of script.

Tom pressed his palm against the wall and ran it across the stones.

……

Ancient Chinese text?

No wonder you looked so uncomfortable.

Tom frowned, squatted down, and pondered intently.

In addition to the text, there are also some small figures drawing actions.

It looks...like some kind of ritual?

Tom rested his chin on his hand, his gaze gradually becoming thoughtful.

A ritual? A summoning? Or some kind of barrier?

Could it be that another reason why the Momo Mountains became a forbidden area is because of these things that are locked up on it?

Could it be some kind of powerful magic spell?

Just as Tom was deep in thought, Draco patted Tom hard on the back twice.

"Don't bother me." Tom said, somewhat annoyed, and continued reading the ancient text.

"Tom, Tom... no, don't look."

"Tsk." Tom clicked his tongue and turned around impatiently. "Didn't I tell you not to speak down there... F**K!"

This was the first time Tom had ever swore in front of someone.

He couldn't hold back any longer.

No wonder the air around me got hotter and hotter ever since I started reading these ancient texts.

Tom initially thought it was near the center of the volcano, but it turns out it was...

The sleeping dragon opened its eyes, stood up from the ground, and looked at the two people in front of it with ill intent.

The fire dragon exhaled hot air from its nostrils, and its pair of ruby ​​pupils shone brightly at that moment.

"Brother, what... what do we do?" Draco asked, his arm around Tom's shoulder, his legs shaking so badly they felt like they were about to fall apart.

"You're asking me?" Tom swallowed hard.

This was the first time he had ever felt such terrifying pressure.

Chapter 95 Is this still my sister?! (4k)

Tom has seen it all...

He had never seen anything like it before!

That's a fire dragon! A living fire dragon!

Tom had never even seen a fully grown dragon before.

Hopefully, this fire dragon won't be grumpy when it wakes up.

Tom and Draco stepped back together and leaned against the wall.

The stone wall behind them sent intense heat through their backs.

However, those temperatures were quite cool compared to the terrifying scorching heat on the fire dragon's body.

Why not just take action and fight him to the death?

Before Tom could even make a move, the unicorn jumped down from above, blocking Tom's path, and roared twice at the fire dragon in front of him.

The dragon stopped advancing, carefully examining Tom and Draco before it. After letting out a heavy snort, it retreated and coiled up on the ground again.

However, at this moment, the dragon no longer closed its eyes, but instead used its ruby-like pupils to scrutinize Tom and Draco. If the two of them did anything out of line, it would pounce on them and bite them to death immediately.

"Tom, Tom... what did he say? Aren't you able to read the language of magical creatures?"

"Hmm..." Tom couldn't believe his ears. "It seems to be someone else's pet, here to guard something important."

As he spoke, Tom turned his head slightly to look at the ancient characters behind him.

Are these the things?

Is the thing that the fire dragon protects a long string of magic that humans cannot understand?

However, it doesn't seem to resist me learning this knowledge?

Tom turned his head and squatted down.

"Are you still watching?"

“He has to have some ambition, right? He doesn’t have any hostility towards us; he just misunderstood us at first.” Tom calmed down after learning the situation.

Seeing how calm Tom was, Draco took a deep breath and turned around as well.

But as soon as he turned around, the dragon stood up and glared at Draco.

"Damn it! Fine, I won't look anymore!" Draco turned around with a long face, no longer looking at the ancient text behind him.

Why……

Why can Tom watch it, but I can't?

What good things did that unicorn say for Tom?

Since you've already spoken up for Tom, can't you at least say something nice about me too?

Wouldn't that make me seem excluded?

I am, after all, a pure-blooded wizard!

"Tom, what are those things you're looking at?" Draco asked Tom without turning around.

"Hmm...something from ancient times. We don't have any clues yet, but it seems to be..."

Some kind of magic!

A kind of magic that allows you to travel to other places!

"Then... I'll go out and wait for you?"

Not hearing Tom's reply, Draco took it as Tom's agreement and left the volcano entrance.

After Draco left, the dragon closed its eyes again, its restless tail swaying wildly.
