Harry Potter: Badger's Flathead

"Got it. I promise I won't tell anyone." Hagrid said seriously.

Ivan didn't say anything, just looked at Hagrid's serious face quietly.

"What's wrong?" Hagrid touched his face puzzledly. Was there something on his face?

"It's nothing, just pay attention." Alvin skipped the topic and didn't want to continue.

He just prayed that no one would accidentally ask about Hagrid's use of the wand. If no one asked, this big leak would not be leaked out!

Hagrid was confused and didn't understand what Irving meant.

Forget it, continue practicing magic! He hasn't used a wand to cast a spell for decades, and today he must use a spell to drain all the magic power in his body!

Now, Ivan has an additional daily task, teaching Hagrid spells!

Especially Apparition. Hagrid was only in the third year when he was expelled, and there were still many things he hadn't learned yet. Besides, he couldn't ask other professors now, so only Ivan had to teach it.

At the very least, you have to learn how to Apparate, because that is essential for saving your life and escaping!

"Okay Hagrid, that's all for today. Take this and practice in an open area where you won't be seen. I'll come and continue teaching you when I'm free."

Irving pulled out a small booklet and handed it to Hagrid.

Hagrid picked up the booklet and put it carefully into his pocket.

"…Maybe I should prepare a larger size for you."

It did seem a little too small for Hagrid.

"It's okay. I can see that there are many books that are not suitable for me, so I have my own way to adapt."

Hagrid waved his hand to show that he didn't care and it was no big deal.

"Okay then, I'll go back first. I have something to take care of." Alvin said goodbye.

Because he suddenly had something very important to do!

Hagrid wanted to practice for a while longer, so he let Alvin go back by himself. Now among all the students in Hogwarts, he was most at ease with Alvin moving freely in the Forbidden Forest.

As soon as Ivan pulled his tie, Mr. Cloak changed back and draped himself on him. After pulling up his hood and changing his look, Ivan flew towards Hogsmeade.

He took out the ticking pocket watch, opened it to confirm, and then sped towards Hogsmeade!

……

Pig's Head Bar

Also entering old age, the white-haired Aberforth still has a stern face as he serves wine to the drinkers who come to drink.

The bar still looked dirty, with thick dirt on the bay windows, and the light from outside could hardly penetrate. There were some candle stubs burning on the rough wooden tables.

The stone floors had been stained by centuries of dirt that would have made you think they were dirt, and the bar always smelled of goat because of a bald goat that lived in the stairwell.

After several decades, Ivan came to the door of the bar again. Looking at the appearance here, he fell into deep thought...

"Aberforth... Could it be that he has never cleaned the house since Credence moved in? Oh my God~"

Ivan looked at the dirty bar in shock. He couldn't believe that Aberforth was so lazy after being hit by the false memory!

This was his first time at the Pig's Head Bar in the past few years. Before he went to the Last Era, he would subconsciously leave when he saw the bar was messy from afar and had never come in.

I also heard from my seniors that this bar is frequented by all kinds of people and is not suitable for students, so I have never been here.

After seeing it clearly for the first time today in this era...it's absolutely amazing!

But the bar was still quite lively and it didn't look like it would be over for a while, so he should wait a while.

Alvin plucked up his courage and took a deep breath!

"yue~"

Step into the bar.

Ivan used his magic cloak to turn into a dark green robe that was very loose, so his face couldn't be seen clearly, but no one cared! After all, there were all kinds of strange people in this bar.

It's even possible that you could find a few criminals in there if you had the heart and guts to do so.

"What would you like to order?" Aberforth walked over and asked with an old face.

"Two bottles of sherry, please."

Sherry is a sweet wine. Whenever Professor Trelawney wants to drown her sorrows in alcohol, she drinks a lot of sherry, which is why she smells like alcohol.

Aberforth didn't say anything after listening to this. He turned around and went to the counter to get two bottles of sherry. Then he returned to Ivan's table and threw them down without caring whether they would break or not. He turned around and left.

Alvin: ...

Has this old man always been so arrogant?

However, no one present looked at him. After so many years, everyone was used to Aberforth's attitude and no one would cause trouble.

After all, the Hog's Head Bar is all about freedom. No matter who you are, come if you want to drink, and that's the attitude. Drink if you want to or not, forget it if you don't want to! If you want to fight, think about who the manager's brother is and whether you have the strength to fight that guy!

"Sorry, it's my first time here. May I ask why that goat is bald?" Alvin was sitting near the stairwell, and he had noticed the bald old goat for a long time.

He was really curious, so he asked the person next to him! But he didn't ask in vain, and put a Galleon on the table next to him as a reward.

"Oh, you mean this! It wasn't bald before. It was still hairy more than two years ago. But one night it suddenly became bald, and it hasn't grown back. What a poor little thing."

An old man at the next table, whose face was red from drinking, had a look of sympathy on his face. He was also a regular customer of this store and was familiar with the goat that smelled bad in the store. He felt deeply sympathetic about its plight.

After all... he is bald too and knows how it feels to be bald.

"Uh~Thanks, he is indeed a poor little guy."

Alvin felt guilty, and he seemed to know what was going on!

"Damn it! If I catch the guy who plucked its hair out one day, I will make him pay!"

Aberforth came over with a glass of brandy and dropped it heavily on the bald old man.

"Hey~ Be careful. If you spill it, I won't pay for it." The old man said dissatisfiedly.

Aberforth ignored him and looked at his goat with pity.

He met this goat outside Godric's Hollow, and it has been with him for almost a lifetime! This goat may also have the bloodline of some magical animal, otherwise it would not have lived for so many years!

This little goat is also one of his relatives. Although he was prosecuted for abusing magic on the goat, it's all bullshit! He was just teasing the little guy and didn't hurt it at all! Those damn guys~

But when they were both old, someone actually plucked out his old friend's hair! It was simply unforgivable!

Seeing Aberforth suddenly becoming angry because of the goat's bald head, Ivan turned his head guiltily, raised his glass and drank it all.

It was done by the shadow soldiers, what does it have to do with Alvin Margrave!

Gradually, everyone in the bar left, and a few people who were drunk and unconscious were taken away by people Aberforth sent for.

Soon, Alvin was the only one left in the room.

"It's closing time. I've told you several times. Now you're the only one left. Do you want me to ask you to leave?" Aberforth stood in front of Ivan with a sour face.

After waiting for several hours, it was finally quiet!

Ivan took off his hood, revealing a face that Aberforth seemed to have seen before.

"No, it's just that I have something very important to tell you alone."

"I don't think a child can have anything important to say to me, get out of here!" Aberforth was very impatient and made a gesture to drive Ivan away.

Over the years, many senior students from Hogwarts have come to him for excitement, and he is used to it. As long as it is not a big deal, he will not tell Hogwarts.

"Oh~ Really? What about Credence has nothing to do with you?" A playful smile appeared on Ivan's lips.

boom!

Something seemed to explode in Aberforth's mind!

"How did you know that name!" (Come closer!)

"Guess~" Ivan's evil taste came up, but he didn't say it clearly.

"Then don't blame me for being rude!" Aberforth's temper flared up, and he raised his hand to teach this smirking boy a lesson!

?o??o??咩~

After two bangs, the bar returned to peace.

"You are so old, why are you so impulsive? It seems that I don't respect the elderly and love the young. Can't we just have a good chat?"

Ivan looked helpless, wondering how could he still be so irritable at his age.

"Please let me go first, and then we can talk about respecting the elderly and loving the young, okay?"

Aberforth was pressed on the table, his face full of resentment.

He was careless! This guy actually attacked an old man like him. If he were a few decades younger, he would have beaten his ass to pieces.

Ivan let go of Aberforth, and Aberforth glared at Ivan unkindly.

"Tell me, what are you doing here? How do you know the name Credence?"

Ivan pointed at Aberforth's chest.

"Take out the pocket watch on your chest and you will know."

Aberforth's pupils shrank!

He actually knew this! Even his cheap brother didn't know about this pocket watch left by Credence!

Seeing that Ivan didn't want to joke, Aberforth took out his pocket watch and opened it to take a look.

The moment the pocket watch was opened, a flash of green light appeared, and Aberforth suddenly became dazed.

At this time, the crystal on the pocket watch has completely turned green! The spell cast on it has also been activated.

The moment Aberforth saw it, memories that had been buried for decades flooded into his mind again!

"Tommy? You...how come you haven't changed at all." Aberforth came to his senses and remembered everything.

But when he saw the familiar person in front of him, and that unchanged face, he couldn't help but become confused...

"I'm sorry for not telling you the truth before. I'll explain the reason to you later, but my real name is Irving Margrave! Tommy is just my temporary name."

Ivan explained briefly.

"Ivan...you are the extraordinary student that Albus mentioned! He mentioned you when he came to me! But how did you..."

Aberforth was confused. He couldn't understand how a person could have both his past and his present at the same time.
