NOVEL NEXT Chapter 12: The Magical Room of Requirement and a Conversation
"The way to enter the Room of Requirement is to concentrate on the room you need and walk back and forth in front of this tapestry three times, and the corresponding room will appear on the opposite wall.
You can imagine a place where you can live. Who of you wants to try it?" Dumbledore asked Glenn and Hermione with a smile.
Feeling Hermione's curiosity rising, but hesitant, Glenn let go of her hand and gently pushed Hermione.
"Go ahead, I can't see the way."
"Emmm...Okay then, just stand still and wait for me to come back."
Hermione walked forward happily, muttering in her heart:"A comfortable room that can meet the long-term living needs of Glenn and me." And walked back and forth in front of the tapestry three times.
A door appeared on the smooth wall. Hermione went back and took Glenn's hand, came to the door, and pushed it open.
A bright room appeared in front of everyone: the decoration was similar to the style inside the Hogwarts Castle. After entering the door, there was a table and a sofa facing the stove. The stove was not lit now.
Surprisingly, there were windows on the wall, and fresh air entered the room from the windows, but the scene outside the window was particularly blurry.
Not far away was a soft bed that looked very comfortable, with some fluffy cute dolls on it.
The room next to it was a bathroom and toilet for people to take a bath.
The room was not big, but very warm, clean and tidy without any peculiar smell.
"I have arranged it in advance. When you want to eat, you can put the plate next to the table on the table, say what you want to eat, and the food will appear on your plate."Dumbledore blinked and reminded
"Oh, by the way, in order to let you learn to control the magic in your body, I also bought you the textbooks you will need for the first grade in the future. They will probably be delivered tomorrow.
As Dumbledore was talking, two large suitcases suddenly floated out of his pocket, which made Hermione stunned.
Looking at the surprised Hermione, Dumbledore smiled and joked:"The traceless extension spell, a small spell that can create a larger space in a space, is it interesting?"
"These are the clothes and daily necessities your parents asked me to bring you. I will put them here for now." Dumbledore controlled the suitcase to land on the ground.
"I still have to deal with the follow-up of that matter. You are free to move around. The library is on the fifth floor. I won't tell you about other places. After all, exploration is part of life, right? When you go downstairs, pay attention to your steps. Many stairs are movable."
"I'll be leaving now." Dumbledore nodded to Glenn and Hermione and turned away.
"By the way, remember not to go out after 10 o'clock in the evening. Although you are not students yet, you will not grow tall if you don't go to bed early. Besides, there will be some strange things in Hogwarts at night." As if he thought of something, Dumbledore turned his head and added, then closed the door. After
Dumbledore left, Hermione took Glenn to sit on the sofa, and then complained to Glenn viciously:"Well, I can finally settle accounts with you, bastard Glenn."
"How could you rush directly into the fire? Huh?! Not to mention that you didn't take any protective measures, and there were those dangerous Death Eaters that Professor Dumbledore mentioned."
Hermione's hair was blown up, and she was very angry.
"What if something happens to you? Have you ever thought about what your uncles and aunts will think, and what I will think?"She said loudly, and tears began to fall again.
"If it weren't for that damn Obscurus, the magic riot, and Professor Dumbledore's arrival, you would have died! Do you know how worried I was about you? Do you know how scared I was when I saw you covered in blood?"The little girl choked and cried.
"That blood is not mine.……"
""Shut up! Did I ask you to talk?" Hermione slapped Glenn's thigh hard, and suddenly remembered that his injury was not fully healed, and apologized hurriedly:"Ah! Sorry, I forgot you were still injured.……"The voice became smaller again.
Hermione's emotions were incoherent, so she could only snort and turn her face away, wiping her tears and sulking.
Glenn was silent. He did not put his own life first and ignored his own safety.
But after being scolded by Hermione, he did not feel uncomfortable, but felt a warm current flowing from his heart.
He felt that he should do something now, but he was a little at a loss.
So he took the worst plan.
"Are you concerned about me?" Glenn asked
"! No way! Don't talk to me! I'm very angry now! Humph!"
"All right." Glenn shut up and the room fell silent.
But Glenn found that after he was silent, the dangerous aura from Hermione became more and more terrifying. At this moment, a sudden inspiration came to his mind.
"I apologize." He said sincerely
"What else?" the girl hummed.
"In the future...try not to do it again?" the boy said tentatively.
"Try your best?" Hermione's eyes sharpened.
"But if there is real danger about to happen to you, I can't just sit there and watch."
"………"Hermione didn't speak.
"I will think carefully about countermeasures and will not act rashly again."
"Um"
"Try to ensure your own safety?"
"Um?"
"……Under the premise of ensuring your own safety"
""Yeah."
Glenn wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Hermione.
"You have to take me with you." Glenn felt the girl's fiery gaze and said,"Don't try to get rid of me again. I have to watch you in person, otherwise I can't report to my uncle and aunt."
""Okay." Glenn answered honestly.
"Well, I'll forgive you then." Hermione's frown finally���
Seeing Hermione finally calm down, Glenn also felt that the inexplicable sense of crisis dissipated. Hermione is really scary, he thought to himself
"We must make a careful plan for our future life and make good use of this period of time living on campus." Hermione returned to her normal self,"Professor Dumbledore talked to me a lot before you woke up, I will tell you slowly then."
Glenn agreed, time was running out, after learning that there was magic in this world, he thought that if he didn't master magic firmly, he would not be able to protect the people around him with only the memory of his past life and his current skills.
"We will go to the library to borrow books later." Glenn replied seriously.
She searched her suitcase and took out a notebook and pen.
She thought and wrote while talking to Glenn.
"The professor recommended several books. We will go to the library to borrow them. Since we have two more years of free time than others, there is no reason to waste it. Let's memorize a few books in advance."
Hermione quickly wrote down the names of the borrowed books and the time schedule, and then added
"Although you can't see it now, I can read it to you. You can only learn it with me."
She muttered to herself
"In fact, the best way is for us to divide the work and cooperate, two people memorize different books, and then teach each other.……"Hermione glanced at Glenn and suddenly laughed again
"But it's actually pretty good this way, hehe."
Glenn listened to the little girl in front of him muttering about how to take care of himself and not let his progress fall behind her, while revising the schedule he had just written, and felt an inexplicable emotion fermenting in his body.
"Thank you, Hermione.
He felt happy from the bottom of his heart, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he said to Hermione with a smile
"！？"Hermione's eyes widened in confusion.
"You can actually laugh?!"
"……"
The little girl's bright brown eyes rolled around.
"Promise me one more thing, smile more in the future." Hermione's bad mood disappeared, and she came over with a smile.
"don't want"
"want"
"don't want"
"want!"
"……don't want"
"What?~"
"……Good."
Today’s win, Glenn’s defeat.
