Chapter 493: Chapter 151: An Unspoken Request_4
Hogwarts must absolutely not have a hanging case tomorrow morning.
"Snap!"
Newt Scamander suddenly clapped his hands, "I think you must be Ian Prince, Albus has ntioned you more than once in our communications, he speaks very highly of you, and now I know why—your way of speaking is exactly the sa as his."
Seeing Ian did not refute.
Newt Scamander beca pleased with his accurate judgnt.
"Not very big, but full of wisdom; though for , such words do carry weight." Granny Queenie’s face looked a bit less sorrowful.
After speaking.
She turned to Newt Scamander, her tone sowhat complaining, "See, this is how you comfort soone, not like you, telling
from a biological perspective that my husband won’t feel cold in his grave, and accusing
that the treasures I placed there will only accelerate the decay of his body."
Clearly.
Newt Scamander’s emotional intelligence hasn’t improved much over the years. To be honest, marrying a wife is undoubtedly the biggest miracle that has occurred to Newt Scamander.
"Treasure? Treasure shouldn’t be placed casually in a grave; it’s as susceptible to nurturing undesired things as oil is." Ian looked up at the three elderly in front of him.
"See, I’m not the only one saying this, am I?" The previously embarrassed Newt Scamander seed to find a lifeline and imdiately echoed Ian’s words.
He, his wife, and sister-in-law obviously didn’t understand Ian’s aning.
"Ha!"
Granny Queenie looked displeased.
"Alright, alright, you know Newt is just that sort of person, he didn’t an to upset you." Another granny, Tina, stepped in as the peacemaker. A group almost hitting two hundred years, still having such squabbles, is indeed quite amusing.
"Clack~ clack~"
Ian took out so seeds.
"You’re watching the show now!"
Granny Queenie glared at the little wizard.
"Do you want so?"
The little wizard started sharing his seeds with the three old folks.
"..."
Granny Queenie beca speechless. Her personality had changed considerably from when she was young, possibly due to widowhood or the change through nopause.
"I would like so."
Tina cheerfully accepted the seeds from Ian.
"Who are you here to visit?"
Ian seized the opportunity to inquire about the reason for the three’s visit to Hogwarts; he knew Newt Scamander lived quite far away from Hogwarts.
It was not yet a festival for visiting.
"Looking for Nicolas Flal, do you know where his office is?" Granny Tina responded, and asked the little wizard for Nicolas Flal’s location.
"Over there."
Ian pointed in the direction of Nicolas Flal’s office.
Granny Tina, upon hearing this, imdiately thanked him, and looked at her husband.
"Let
rest a while longer, the journey from Dorset to here has worn
out." Newt Scamander had been leaning against a nearby pillar, indeed appearing sowhat exhausted.
It’s no wonder many spirited comics never depict protagonists marrying and having children; looking at Newt Scamander now, one can deeply understand why.
"What tired you out is not the journey, but that suitcase you’re reluctant to let go." Queenie gave a helpless glance at the suitcase held by her sister.
Of course, she was not referring to the suitcase’s weight, but the hassle from those fantastic beasts inside.
"They’re just so little fellows; I’m long past my youthful energy and have beco much more cautious over the years. My suitcase hasn’t caused any... major troubles lately."
Newt Scamander quickly responded, defending his suitcase, and even glanced at Ian, as if trying to restore his image before the younger generation.
"Like Thunder Dragons? Fire Dragons?"
Ian curiously looked at Newt’s suitcase—a suitcase that has always been legendary, rumored to have special combat power rivaling unique legends during its pri.
"Still young, still young..." Newt Scamander answered sowhat sheepishly, clearly revealing he isn’t a good liar.
However.
As his wife, Tina ca out to undermine him.
"The Bird Snake you treated on the road isn’t small; you could obviously hand it over to the rescue personnel from the Ministry of Magic." Tina shook the suitcase she held for her husband.
"I don’t trust the local Ministry of Magic; they only recently falsely accused Albus... That Bird Snake is very obedient, it has already beco very small."
Newt Scamander seemingly redefined what ’small’ ant.
"I also like to raise so little things."
When Ian heard about the Bird Snake, his eyes lit up, attempting to warm up to Newt Scamander; his current bottleneck with the Traceless Extension Charm lacked Bird Snake skin. Of course—Ian isn’t soone who would harm a Bird Snake just for a bit of skin, as he has special magic potions that promote the healing speed of biological tissues.
"It shows, even during school you cared for Tree-Protecting Leprechauns, you must be as passionate about Fantastic Beasts as I am." Newt Scamander imdiately seed to find a common topic.
