A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts - Chapter 456
Aaron looked directly into the watery, emerald green eyes less than half a meter away from him, and was speechless for a moment.
“Is the fifth gift box prepared for me?”
“Guess.” Klea said with a smile, and then opened the last gift box.
The dazzling golden light shone on Aaron’s face, and before he could react, he felt that his arms were suddenly empty.
I saw a white shadow jumping up to the gift box in an instant, looking at the things inside with a face full of surprise, and its eyes curved into a crescent shape.
Inside the box is a pure gold statue of Abe, almost as big as a dragon egg. In addition, there are also ten pure gold sculptures of dragons of different types, slightly smaller in size.
Golden things have a huge allure to dragons, and Abe is not immune to this. This was the first time that he saw his own golden statue, and he couldn’t believe how beautiful it was.
At this moment, its favorability towards Klea has skyrocketed, almost reaching the same level as Aaron.
If it has such a mistress, it will definitely have no worries about food and clothing in the future.
Thinking about it like this, it showed pitiful eyes. While holding on to the gold, it begged its master not to refuse Klea’s kindness.
“I’m embarrassed to talk to you.” Aaron covered his face with one hand, “It’s not like you haven’t seen money before. This is the first time.”
“Those golds belong to the master, and these golds belong to me.” Abe said confidently. This is his private property, and even his master cannot take advantage of it.
“Are you satisfied?” Klea pinched Abe’s ears, “I heard my brother and eldest sister talking about you, a cute, fierce, smart and loyal dragon. Thanks to you for accompanying Aaron these past few years. Not so lonely!
I have prepared this set of gifts for you. This is a reward for you. I think you will like it. “
“You’re really good at seeing dragons.” Abe nodded vigorously, his two dragon claws were not idle, and he carefully stuffed eleven pieces of gold into his pocket.
“You’re so good.” Klea smiled, “I will give you a backup gift every Christmas from now on.”
Abe’s ears twitched, then turned to look at Aaron, “Master, I have always wanted a mistress, and I think she is quite suitable.”
“Beautiful.” Aaron gritted his teeth, “Even you were bribed.”
Abe smiled shyly and squatted down next to Aaron obediently, but his net worth had obviously increased countless times compared to before.
“Bring it here!” Klea extended her right hand to Aaron.
“What?” Aaron asked confused.
“My gift!” Klea said, “Leon visited you two years ago. After returning home, he told me that you would prepare a gift for me when you see me.
My brother will definitely not lie to me, don’t tell me you forgot. “
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Aaron’s face. He had indeed promised Leon, but Klea’s direct request made him unable to react.
A few seconds later, he opened a red magic circle and took out a string of exquisite pearl necklaces, “How could I not be prepared!”
Klea looked at the flawless white pearls and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, “Are you sure you want to give me the mermaid’s tears?”
Aaron nodded, “OK.”
Klea put the necklace on her neck with satisfaction, “Mermaid tears represent love and are the best gift from a wizard to his beloved witch.”
Aaron:? ? ?
“Is it too late for me to take this thing back now?”
Chapter 527 The Ministry of Magic is not safe either. It is impossible to seek help from the Order of the Phoenix.
“Do you still want to take back the gifts you gave to girls?” Klea looked at Aaron teasingly, “If you regret it, it’s not impossible, just come up with a new piece of jewelry in exchange.”
“Ah this…”
Aaron pursed his lips, feeling particularly embarrassed.
There are only two pieces of jewelry in his collection, one is Mermaid’s Tears and the other is Gilani Emerald.
That thing is a curse ridden with bad luck. Whoever takes it will be unlucky. If he gives it to Clea, he will probably be chased to death by that **** Leon.
“It seems you don’t have it.” Klea shrugged slightly, “Then I will accept this necklace.”
“Forget it, just accept it!
Why don’t I have any other gifts for you? “
“Maybe this is fate!
We reunited for the first time after many years, and the gift you gave me has such special meaning. “
“Huh? You can’t say that.” Aaron hurriedly interrupted, “I just don’t understand its other meaning. If I knew, I definitely wouldn’t give you this.”
Klea pointed to the necklace around her neck proudly, “The fact is that you gave it to me, who cares what you think.”
Aaron’s mouth twitched slightly, and he was silent for a few seconds before reluctantly speaking: “I know why you came, but I have always regarded you as my sister.”
Hearing this, Klea’s expression did not change at all. Instead, she looked at him with interest, “It’s hard enough for you to be so straightforward.”
“If you continue to cut off, you will suffer from chaos.”
After the words were spoken, Aaron breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
The longer this matter goes on, the more unclear it becomes. If Klea is hurt in the future, with her status as the group’s favorite, he will become the target of public criticism in minutes.
Klea nodded noncommittally, “But that was when I was a child. We have grown up.”
“Then we should be calmer.” Aaron said earnestly, “Marriage is a lifelong matter. We are still young and cannot be so impulsive.”
Klea was not angry, and looked at Aaron with her beautiful eyes, “I am not impulsive. The children of the Darwin family have IQ and EQ far beyond ordinary people.
I know this is a bit sudden for you, but it doesn’t matter, I don’t expect you to accept me now.
how to say? I’ll make you fall in love with me. “
Hearing this, Aaron’s whole body went numb, “Klea, I don’t seem to understand what you mean.”
“Where do you think I rank among the girls you know?”
“Second.” Aaron said without thinking.
“I think so too, except for the eldest sister, I am no worse than anyone else.” Klea said, and then looked at Aaron meaningfully, “You don’t mind me coming in second place and chasing you, right?”
Boom!
The thunder was rolling, and the violent wind and rain were beating in his spiritual space.
Aaron subconsciously wanted to refuse, but looking at the pretty face so close, he couldn’t say anything.
“I’ll take it as your promise.” Clea grabbed Aaron’s left hand and shook it, showing a sweet smile. “After seven years, let’s formally meet Clea Darwin, the second daughter of the Darwin family.”
“Uncle Genes.”
“I’m here.” Genes ran down from the second floor.
“My room shouldn’t have changed, right?”
“Of course not. The rooms of the young masters and young ladies have been well kept.”
“Thank you.” Klea said politely, “But could you please do me a small favor and tidy up the room next to Aaron?”
“This…” Jeans hesitated, but then Lisanna’s coughing sound came from the second floor.
“No problem, it can be packed up soon.”
“Thank you, uncle, I’ll go to my old room first.” Klea said, then picked up her backpack and left the living room.
After she left, Aaron came back to his senses and smiled to himself, “It’s really impossible to escape now.”
“That only shows that the young master is very charming.”
“I’ll just treat you as comforting me.” Aaron leaned weakly on the sofa, glanced at Shenglong, who was holding his pockets, and was immediately speechless.
When Abe was one or two years old, he was worried that he would be abducted by others with a chicken leg, but now he is worried that he would be sold to him for gold.
At the dinner that day, Klea was received grandly.
Vico and others were extremely enthusiastic towards her, asking her questions and caring for her in every possible way.
Aaron was left alone, making him deeply feel what it means to be warm and cold.
Klea officially lived next door to Aaron, but she was very measured and did not interfere too much in his life, but she always appeared in time when he needed it.
After not seeing each other for seven years, it is very important to change the inherent impression. At least the relationship must be beyond the scope of brother and sister.
It was a gradual process, but Klea was very patient.
It turned out that her approach was very correct. At first, Aaron was a little cautious when facing Klea, but after more than a week, his attitude gradually changed.
Although this was inseparable from the fact that Vico and the others tried every means to create opportunities for them to be alone, not to mention the fact that there was a bribed dragon as an assist, and with the Death Eaters watching eagerly outside the castle, he needed someone to accompany him. Chatting to relieve boredom and relieve stress, it can be said that the right time, place and people are all on Klea’s side.
On this day, the two of them were sitting in the living room reading the newspaper, and the distance between them was beyond that of ordinary friends.
“The collapse of London’s Brockle Bridge was caused by Death Eaters.” Aaron said firmly. “That bridge was built less than ten years ago. Even if the government turned it into a shoddy project, it would not be in order.” Broken in two.”
“There’s also the weird hurricane in the south-western counties, which is a wizarding ability, and I bet the Muggle Prime Minister is under a lot of pressure.
But that’s not important, what’s important is these. “Clea took out a second newspaper, pointed to the headline on it and said: “Scrimgeour takes over from Fudge. “
“I knew this day would come when Fudge tried every means to cover up the news of Voldemort’s resurrection.” Aaron said unconcernedly, “I don’t know if Scrimgeour is better than Fudge, but he still did it. This is a personnel matter, and at least the Ministry of Magic has taken some measures to ensure that students can return to school safely.”
Klea raised her eyebrows and asked tentatively: “Are you concerned about Hogwarts?”
“Of course, that place is very important to me,” Aaron said. “I can’t tell you the specific reasons, but I don’t want Hogwarts to close.”
“There is another piece of news here that I think you should pay attention to.” Klea said hesitantly, “Bones is dead?”
“Susan Bones?”
“It’s not her, it’s Amelia Bones, Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
In addition to her, there is Emmeline Vance, who seems to be a member of the Order of the Phoenix. “
Snapped!
Aaron slapped his forehead with a sad look on his face, “Trouble!”
He originally planned to hide in the Ministry of Magic after leaving home, but now it seems that the Ministry of Magic is no longer safe.
The fact that the Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement could be killed means that Voldemort did not take the Ministry of Magic to heart at all. He was fully prepared for war, but Dumbledore made him afraid.
“What are you going to do?” Clea asked curiously, “The Ministry of Magic is no longer safe.”
“You know my plan?”
“I’m smarter than you.” Klea said angrily, “You can still stay at home for two days. You will definitely not get engaged to me after two days, but it means you have to find a safe place to avoid death eating. The gangster’s pursuit.
Cross-country escape is unrealistic, so there are only three choices left for you, the Ministry of Magic, Hogwarts and the Order of the Phoenix. From what I know about you, you will definitely choose the Ministry of Magic. “
“Now this option can be eliminated, Kelia, do you have any good suggestions?”
“Order of the Phoenix.” Klea said directly.
“No, I won’t go while Dumbledore is alive.” Aaron refused decisively, “And Ancestor Flo gave me better advice.
But I have to find a way to negotiate with Voldemort on an equal footing first, otherwise it will be the same as giving someone away. “
“That’s good, ask the Order of the Phoenix for help.
As long as the White Devil is willing to stand up for you, the Dark Devil will not dare to act rashly. “
“I’ve thought about this, but it still doesn’t work.” Aaron said with a grimace, “Dumbledore is a black-hearted fox, and he will never help me in vain.
Don’t think that he will feel guilty for **** me over in the Department of Mysteries. If he doesn’t get some benefit from me, he will definitely shirk it in every possible way. “
“Then give him some benefits.” Klea said casually, “I know you won’t be willing to give in, but no matter how unwilling you are, you have to ensure your own safety first.”
“I’ll think about it!” Aaron said a little aggrievedly.
As long as he asks for help, the initiative will be in Dumbledore’s hands.
By then, it won’t matter what he has, what matters is what Dumbledore wants.
…
The day passed by in a flash, and the next night the Gaius family and Clea gathered around the dinner table.
None of them had a meal, they just looked at Aaron, and the atmosphere gradually became solemn.
“There are still three hours until early morning. How are you considering it?” Teppler asked very seriously, “Is it to get engaged or to flee?”
Aaron did not answer, but showed his attitude with practical actions.
He picked up his fork and started to devour it. He was not short of funds now, but he would have enough strength to run away after he was full.
As for Abe, he carefully put food into his pocket. The pocket with the Seamless Stretching Charm was like a bottomless pit. It put the dinner plates in one after another, and when he took them out, they were cleaner than those he had ever licked.
