Chapter 11: Chapter 11: I’m Not a Weasley, So Why Would I Break School Rules?

With his troubles gone, Cedric suddenly beca much more cheerful. He stopped reading and took the initiative to talk to Kael, "Hello, can I call you Kael?"

"Of course." Kael nodded, "Actually, my father works at the Departnt for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures too, he’s colleagues with your dad."

"Your father?" Cedric was first stunned, then sowhat uncertainly asked, "Is it Mr. Chris Chopper?"

"Yes." Kael said.

Cedric suddenly realized, "Your surna is Chopper, and you know the Weasley Brothers... Oh, I should have guessed it, we’re neighbors after all!"

With this connection, the relationship between the two quickly beca much more familiar, and interacting with each other felt very natural, as if they were old friends who had been acquainted for a long ti.

Even though they had never t before today.

"By the way, Kael." Cedric seed to rember sothing, and asked curiously, "I rember I went to look for you earlier, but you weren’t ho. At that ti, my dad told

that you’ve been learning from Mr. Scamander since you were very young, and you’ll definitely achieve sothing great in the future.

Is that true? Have you really been following Mr. Scamander to learn?"

Cedric was extrely curious, after all, that is Scamander.

Although there are many famous people in the British Magical Realm, most of them are only sowhat known within their own countries.

For instance, so textbook authors, novelists who have been awarded the Third Class Order of rlin, perhaps they have a certain notoriety at Hogwarts, but once they go sowhere else... such as Ilvermorny or Beauxbatons, people wouldn’t know who you are.

Those who can truly beco famous throughout the Magic Realm, and have their portrait printed on the Chocolate Frog Card when they’re still alive, are actually just a few.

And Scamander is one of those few.

Being this close to a legendary figure for the first ti, Cedric was naturally very curious.

...

On the other side, Kael was looking at Cedric incredulously.

He also looked for , and I wasn’t ho either? That’s just too coincidental.

And Mr. Digory, isn’t he in the sa office as Chris? Where did he hear this kind of rumor, how could I have been at Uncle Newt’s place all the ti.

Kael rubbed his forehead a bit speechlessly and thought, "First of all, the idea that I’ll achieve sothing great in the future is definitely not wrong, but my dad was the student of Newt Scamander, I was rely going there to play."

Newt is different from Dumbledore, he has very severe social anxiety. He was a bit better when he was younger, although he didn’t like talking, he could make a few friends, battle the Dark Lord, or even take on a few students, guiding them in so knowledge about Fantastic Beasts.

But ever since Grindelwald was locked up in Nimongard Tower, Newt rarely engaged in those social activities, putting all his focus on Fantastic Beasts.

Especially in the last thirty years, he hardly spoke to strangers, and naturally, his social anxiety got more severe.

Do you expect Newt to be like the professors at Hogwarts, teaching a Young Wizard every day, then filling in gaps and correcting assignnts?

Impossible.

And Newt also knew very well that his personality wasn’t suited for being a teacher. In his view, whether it’s a professor or a teacher, they should be like Dumbledore.

So Chris was his last nominal student.

In the following decades, although many people had this idea, and so even brought Dumbledore as a diator, Newt, however, rejected all of them, without exception.

Newt didn’t want to mislead the youth, even if the other party themselves didn’t mind, he couldn’t get over his own conscience.

Originally, Kael went there simply because Chris and Diana were too busy with work and didn’t have ti to take care of him. At that ti, Newt’s wife, Tina, happened to learn about this and took the initiative to bring Kael over.

Helping Chris, while Tina could also find sothing to do for herself.

Think about it, having a husband who doesn’t like talking and is obsessed with Fantastic Beasts is already quite challenging. If Tina didn’t find sothing to do for herself, she probably would have gone crazy.

Furthermore, Kael had just turned six at that ti, and according to Tina’s experience, it’s the age that people find annoying. Maybe he could help cure Newt’s social anxiety.

When their grandson was this age, he caused Newt quite a headache; he spoke more in one day than he had in the past month.

And in this regard, Kael indeed didn’t let Tina down.

Although he wasn’t a troubleso kid, he had a strong curiosity, plus it was his first ti seeing so many kinds of Fantastic Beasts, so he couldn’t help but ask all sorts of questions.

Perhaps because those questions were all related to Fantastic Beasts, Newt, even though he rarely took the initiative to speak, would carefully respond whenever Kael asked.

This way, he ended up speaking more, and he was willingly doing it.

In short, all three of them were very satisfied.

And because of this, despite Chris and Diana being less busy afterward, Kael still went there for a while every year.

...

Of course, Kael didn’t plan on talking to Cedric about these things. After all, he needed to help maintain Newt’s image.

A legendary Master of Fantastic Beasts who lives in seclusion sounds way better than an uncle with social anxiety.

So after a brief explanation, Kael didn’t intend to continue with this topic. Speaking too much might reveal the truth, it’s fine the way it is now.

"By the way, Cedric, how do you think the professors at Hogwarts are? Are they easy to get along with?" Kael naturally shifted his gaze to the book "Dark Power: Self-defense Guide" by Cedric’s side and said, "You know it’s my first ti going to school, I don’t really know much about this. What if I accidentally make a professor mad, will I get expelled?"

"You don’t have to worry about that at all."

Cedric said with a smile, without any suspicion, "The professors are all very nice... well, at least most of them are. And even the... cough, even the strictest professors wouldn’t easily expel a student.

Unless you did sothing seriously against school rules and regulations."

When he said the last sentence, Cedric’s expression beca very serious, his mouth slightly parted, looking like he wanted to say sothing but didn’t know how to start.

Seeing this, Kael guessed what he wanted to say, so he quickly waved his hand and said, "Don’t worry, I don’t have the surna Weasley, so I definitely won’t break school rules."

Hearing him say this, Cedric finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Sorry... I didn’t an that."

Kael shook his head, "It’s okay, I understand."

Since they talked about Hogwarts, Cedric got interested as well, and in the following ti he told Kael so more detailed information.

For example, there’s a new Professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts every year, the Professor of Transfiguration Technique who’s obsessed with turning into a cat is the most stern... and most importantly, the Professor of Potions who doesn’t wash his hair loves to deduct points and so on.

Basically, it was almost what Kael already knew, nothing too surprising.
