Hogwarts Crawler.

Before the couple could figure it out, Old Reed's voice interrupted their thoughts:
"Do you want to be a Muggle forever?"
As he said this, the old wizard took out his wand and wanted to show it to his grandson.
"There's nothing wrong with being a Muggle."
Adam glanced quickly at his parents:
"Besides, I just don't want to go to Hogwarts. There should be other schools in the world where I can learn magic, right?"
"Why?!"
Old Reed was even more surprised, and there was even a hint of grievance in his voice:
"Hogwarts is the best wizarding school in the world!"
The other three old men present who did not graduate from Hogwarts looked at old Reed at the same time.
"Don't be so startled. You're scaring the child."
Grandma Emma moved her fingers, and Old Reed was dragged by his belt and sat on the sofa with a "bang". Then Emma held Adam's hand:
"Child, there is indeed more than one magic school in the world, Hogwarts, but why don't you want to study in Hogwarts?"
"Well……"
Adam hesitated and said:
"Because I have a bad feeling that Hogwarts is not very safe."
"With Dumbledore here, Hogwarts is the safest magical place in the world, wuwuwu——"
The scarf seemed to come alive and blocked old Reed's mouth. Emma frowned and turned her head:
"Shut up, if Dumbledore was omnipotent, our family wouldn't have had to run to China."
Adam's grandmother Emma was originally French. After encountering the terrorist attack organized by Grindelwald in France, she moved to England where Dumbledore was, and met old Reed in England.
After they got married and had children, they encountered the rise of Voldemort. For the safety of their Squib son, they moved to China. Adam's parents also met at that time.
She could clearly realize that even if Dumbledore could eventually resolve the crisis, it did not mean that Dumbledore could guarantee that no one would die in the crisis.
At the same time, she did not take her grandson's premonition lightly. Adam had been very smart since he was a child and would not talk nonsense casually. And wizards having strong premonitions about something in the future... was not without precedent.
Grindelwald, who destroyed her original home, was a wizard with the gift of prophecy.
However, despite this, Emma frowned and said:
"The decisions of the Book of Admission and the Pen of Acceptance are irreversible. They contain extremely ancient and powerful magic. Since you have received a letter from Hogwarts, it means that your name was written there when you were born. It is probably impossible for you to go to other magic schools."
Adam was stunned. He had not expected this.
"What about transferring? I can enroll but not study, and transfer directly to another magic school."
"I haven't heard of any precedent for this, but we can write to Dumbledore and ask him. He is your future headmaster."
My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!
Having said that, looking at his grandmother's expression, Adam knew that this approach would most likely not work. He thought that the magic in the Book of Admission should not be so easy to fool.
"Then take a leave of absence? Just say that I'm not in good health and I'll wait a few years..."
"It's even worse to do that. If you don't properly guide the power in your body at the right age, your body will be damaged and may even attract some bad things."
As if she saw that Emma couldn't bear to disappoint Adam's hope, Grandma Shen Derong took over the conversation and looked at Emma again.
"That's right. Little wizards don't know how to control magic power, and magic riots may occur. This is very dangerous, and we can't teach you these things safely and comprehensively at home."
"...Oh, okay."
Adam sighed and had to accept the fact that he seemed to really have to go to Hogwarts.
But the good news is that as long as I learn the spells, I can control the magic power, so it should be feasible to apply for a leave of absence after completing the first year of study.
In fact, the first year at Hogwarts was relatively safe. As long as you avoided the trapdoor, Professor Quirrell was still safe. The Weasley twins were able to throw snowballs in Voldemort's face without any harm.
"In that case, then don't send a letter to Mr. Dumbledore."
If he is unable to change the current situation and attracts Dumbledore's attention, Adam may encounter some dangers that he would not have encountered otherwise.
"Well, let's write a reply letter to Hogwarts. Tomorrow we will take you to Diagon Alley. There are many magical things there. You will like it."
Emma touched Adam's head, looked at the lingering worry on her grandson's face, and made a decision secretly.
Chapter 3: The Sealed Book? Horcrux?
As the saying goes, man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
Adam's grandparents had to go back that afternoon because of some unexpected events on the other side of the ocean, before they even had to wait until the next day.
"Son, take this and be safe at school."
Before leaving, grandma took out a jade pendant and asked Adam to put it on.
"and this……"
Grandpa took out a thread-bound book and handed it to Adam:
"This is the book you got during the Zhou-Zhua ceremony. I found it. Since you have a talent for cultivation, this book passed down from your ancestors might not be an ordinary thing. It might be able to help you."
After giving a few quick instructions, the two elders left. It was unknown whether the Chinese side used the Apparition technique.
"Happy birthday to you~Happy birthday to you~"
As soon as it was twelve o'clock, the family sang birthday songs around a big cake piled with fruits and cream. The cream on the cake also clapped and danced under grandpa's transformation spell.
Adam closed his eyes and made a wish while singing:
The Three Pure Ones, the Jade Emperor, the Western Guidance, Jesus Christ, Allah...May Master Merlin bless you——
Although I don't know who allowed me to live a second life, but I'm sure that you didn't throw me here just to make me die young for the second time, right?
I don’t ask for any golden fingers or anything like that. Just let me live in peace and stability. Please, please!
"call--"
After opening his eyes, Adam blew out all the candles in one breath with hope of survival.
"Okay, go to bed early. Tomorrow... oh no, we still have to go to Diagon Alley today."
Grandpa smiled mysteriously:
"You'll like it there."
"Okay, Grandpa."
Although he knew what was in Diagon Alley, it would be a lie to say that Adam was not curious about Diagon Alley and the wizarding world, so he nodded expectantly and went upstairs to his room.
"Huh... It's like a dream."
After returning to his room, Adam realized that too many things had happened that day.
I received a letter from Hogwarts and learned that my grandparents were all wizards... Well, my grandparents might be Taoists or something, they didn't go into details.
After being in an excited state for a whole day, Adam suddenly relaxed and felt tired.
Lying on the bed, Adam was tired but not sleepy yet. He wanted to open the book next to him which was said to be the one he won during the fortune-telling ceremony.
"hiss--"
As soon as his fingers touched the book, Adam's vision was filled with a dazzling white light, and he quickly closed his eyes and rubbed them with his hands.
His eyes were irritated and some physiological tears flowed, but there didn't seem to be any serious damage, and there was no stinging sensation when he rubbed them. Adam was relieved. If he had gone blind, it would have been a serious problem.
"Are you the contractor?"
The sudden sound made Adam's body stiffen. He quickly opened his eyes, but the white light had disappeared and there was no one in front of him.
"Who?"
"I am here."
After scanning the area with his eyes, Adam was silent for a while, then he spoke to himself:
"Is anyone talking?"
"Here! On your left! On your left... down! Look down! Yes, that's it!"
As Adam put the book on the bedside table on the quilt, the slightly broken voice returned to its previous state of pretending to be serious:
"Ahem, let's do it again - are you the contractor?"
Looking at the book in front of him, which had a completely different appearance from the previous thread-bound book, Adam's expression was a little subtle.
He seemed to have seen this book somewhere.
If I remember correctly... the cartoon was called "Cardcaptor Sakura"? Of course, he was more familiar with "Cardcaptor Sakura Magic Cards". In his childhood when he watched whatever was on TV, this cartoon left a deep impression on Adam.
If that's the case, then could that voice just now be...
"Um, what is the contract you are talking about?"
"I am the spirit of the world's greatest magic item - the Book of Seals! Sign a contract with me and I can make you a powerful magician!"
It is indeed the Sealed Book!
"So, what's the price?"
Adam lowered his voice and said cooperatively.
"When I recover my body, you must provide me with at least three sweet meals a day, comb my hair for an hour, and play with me for an hour...ah!"
It sounds like he was beaten?
"Don't be stupid! Your words lower my image!"
Another equally young and energetic voice sounded, and a trace of confusion flashed in Adam's eyes.
The voice just now should be Xiao Ke, but the second voice doesn't sound like Yue. By the way, why did the sealed book in "Cardcaptor Sakura" appear in the world of "Harry Potter"...
"Ahem, sorry, I was a little rude just now."
The second voice interrupted Adam's thoughts, but the serious tone was not much different from Xiao Ke's pretending to be serious just now.
"Let me introduce myself again. I'm Spiner, and that guy just now was Kerberos. We are the Sealed Beasts that guard the Book of Seales and the Clow Cards in the Book of Seales."
It turned out to be Spineru... But wasn't Spineru Sun, like Keruberos, a symbol of the sun and Western magic? Has he changed his job now?
"Hello? Hello! Are you listening?"
"Ah? Oh, sorry, I was distracted because I was a little shocked."
Adam came back to his senses and looked at the sealed book in his hand:
"So, you are in this book now, and you want me to open it to get out?"
"We are indeed in the Sealed Book, but you cannot open it yet. You must sign a contract first, otherwise the power in the Sealed Book will not recognize you as its master."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!
They won't recognize me as their master... You mean the Clow Cards inside will fly away one by one, right?
"What is the content of the contract and how do I sign it?"
"The content of the contract is..."
Spiner explained the contents of the contract one by one. In simple terms, all the power in the Book of Seals will be used by Adam, and all Adam needs to do is to provide the Sealed Beasts and the Clow Cards with the magic power needed to maintain their existence, and he cannot abuse the Clow Cards and the Sealed Beasts.
Without Adam asking any more questions, Spiner took the initiative to explain the origin of the Clow Cards. It was similar to what Adam remembered. It was a magic item created by the great magician Clow Reedo who combined Eastern and Western magic.
"I see."
Adam nodded, wrapped the Sealed Book in a quilt and put it aside, then stood up and was about to go out.
"Wait! Where are you going?!"
"Ask grandpa and grandma."
Adam looked back at the Sealed Book.
"I need to rule out the possibility that you are all illusions created by this book to entice me to sign a contract, or that you are all soul fragments in this book, with the purpose of making me sign a contract and give up my life force or soul or something."
Fortunately, he was cautious. He had not touched the Sealed Book directly since its true form was revealed, and he placed it on the quilt through his sleeve.
