Chapter 14
Chapter 014 Hogwarts Express
“Mr. Granger, Mrs. Granger, Hermione, good afternoon.”
Artel greeted the trio.
“Nice to see you, Artel.”
Mr. Granger said with a smile:
“We’re worried that Hermione has never been on a train alone.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Granger, Hermione is a very smart girl, and I think we can take care of each other.”
Artel blinked at Hermione, Hermione pursed her lips, and her face seemed to be a little red.
“You are such a good boy.”
The more Mrs. Granger looked at Artel, the more she liked it, and Mr. Granger looked at the time and said:
“Okay, it’s almost time, it’s time for you to get on the train.”
“Goodbye Mom and Dad, I’ll be back at Christmas.”
Hermione and the Grangers waved goodbye, and Artel said goodbye to both of them, before crossing platform nine and three-quarters with Hermione.
There were still many people on the platform at this time. A dark red steam train lay quietly on the tracks, with a sign hanging on the front of the train that said Hogwarts Express, eleven o’clock.
There was a lot of noise on the platform, some little wizards were saying goodbye to their parents, and there were owl calls everywhere, occasionally mixed with a few cat sounds.
Artel and Hermione pushed through the crowd, got in a less-traveled car, and sat in a box that wasn’t occupied.
After Artel put his suitcase away, he helped Hermione put her suitcase under the seat. Hermione’s little head stuck out of the box and observed the little wizards. He didn’t think they were anything special, so he went back to Take your seat.
“Artel, have you read books this month? I read several books at home, and tried using magic spells. I have mastered a few magic spells.”
Hermione looked at Artel with eagerness in her eyes and a hint of bragging and wanting to compete in her tone.
“Really? Then you’re awesome!”
Artel complimented Hermione before saying:
“I also learned some magic, but some I find difficult, and I should not be able to use it now.”
Artel is telling the truth, he cannot use the Bone Dragon Summoning and Lich King Summoning in Necromancy. In addition, Holy Light Magic and Life Magic are more difficult to study, Artel can only master the most basic spells .
There are also relatively high-level elemental magic…
In conclusion, Artel is not lying.
“There are a few spells in the book of elementary spells that are a bit difficult, and I haven’t mastered them yet. Maybe we’ll know the trick to casting them after class.”
Hermione comforted Artel, and then discussed with him some precautions when casting spells.
These are too childish for Artel. Artel has read the book of elementary spells in ten minutes and completely mastered it, so when discussing with Hermione, she pointed out a lot of things that were wrong with her.
Hermione’s mouth was pouting, and at first she looked unhappy, but slowly it turned into surprise, and later, Hermione looked at Artel with admiration in her eyes.
They are also Muggle little wizards who are not taught by anyone. How can you be so good?
The two chatted, the whistle of the train sounded, and then it started slowly, the door of the box was opened, and a chubby little wizard walked in blushing, it was Neville Longbottom.
“Sorry, there are no other boxes available.”
“It’s okay, you sit here.”
Hermione took the initiative to get up, gave up her seat, and sat down beside Artel blushing.
“Thank you, my name is Neville Longbottom.”
Neville put the box away, took a toad out of it, and glanced at Hermione and Artel cautiously, fearing that they wouldn’t like their pet.
“It’s called Ralph, and it’s a very nice toad, I hope you don’t mind.”
“It’s okay, my name is Hermione, Hermione Granger.”
Neville was relieved that Hermione didn’t show toad disgust like the other little girls.
“Artel Shelby.”
Artel nodded to Neville, saying he didn’t care about the fat toad either.
“I think you’d better close the door, or the toad might run out.”
Artel reminded, and Neville patted his forehead, thanked him, and locked the box door.
There was silence in the box for a while, and Hermione suddenly asked:
“Are your parents wizards?”
Neville looked up and found that Hermione was asking himself, so he nodded:
“Yes, they are all wizards.”
Neville’s parents were tortured into madness by the Death Eaters, and are still in the psychiatric department of St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. He grew up with his grandmother, but he didn’t plan to say this. .
Hermione also found that Neville seemed a little timid and unsociable, so she didn’t say anything more, and then grabbed Artel and discussed with him about Hogwarts.
Artel hadn’t read the history of Hogwarts, but he had read the original book and the movie, so he knew a lot of things, but he could chat with Hermione. *
