duel day at hogwarts

Chapter 7 Apology

Sean stretched his hand into the cage little by little. He didn't know how to win this challenge, but he shouldn't let himself kill the opponent, otherwise it wouldn't be called a challenge.

As Sean's hand slowly approached, White Snake Kulkan's vigilance increased to the maximum. Just when Sean's hand was about to reach half the cage, Kulkan immediately moved towards him like an arrow from a string.

Sean's hand that had already reached his attack range bit him!

Kulkan was extremely fast. Even though Sean was well prepared, he still didn't avoid Kulkan's bite and was bitten on the back of his hand.

Taking a breath, Sean gritted his teeth. Instead of flinching, he stretched out his other hand and clamped directly on both sides of Kulkan's head. As a result, Kulkan rolled his body and wrapped around Sean's wrist.

On the other hand, the mouth biting the back of Sean's hand became tighter and tighter.

Sean didn't use any force, but continued to squeeze Kulkan's head and suppress Kulkan.

As time passed, Ade and Martha clearly showed worried looks on their faces, and the rich witch couldn't help but want to stop Sean from continuing, otherwise if there was a big problem with Sean's hand, even if

If the other party doesn't hold her accountable, she will still have a lot of trouble.

Just when the three adults were preparing to intervene in this struggle.

A smile suddenly appeared on Sean's face.

[If you win the duel, you will randomly obtain a duel target ability.]

[Drawing in progress...]

[The draw is over and you get: Snake Affinity LV3]

The moment it gained snake affinity to LV3, Kulkan, who was biting Sean's hand, slowly let go of his mouth. He looked at the wound on Sean's hand and gently rubbed his head against Sean's fingers, expressing his feelings.

Closeness and apology.

Sean reached out and gently stroked Kulkan's head, letting Kulkan climb along his hand to his shoulder, wrapping it around Sean's neck like a necklace, rubbing against Sean gently

cheek.

Originally, Sean thought that if he won, he might gain the ability of Parseltongue, but it would be good to gain affinity with snake species. Anyway, Sean only wanted a pet. Parseltongue is a useless thing, so of course it would be nice to have it, but not

It doesn't matter.

At worst, I can find a few more snakes to trigger a duel in the future, or find an opportunity to duel with Harry Potter a few more times, and I can always bring out the Parseltongue.

"It's amazing that you actually conquered it."

The wealthy witch was originally ready to separate Sean and Kulkan, but she never thought that Sean would actually conquer Kulkan, the white snake that had been in the store for many years.

Everyone brought Kulkan to the counter. The rich witch used potions and magic to treat Sean's wounds. When Sean's family of three paid the money and walked out of the magical zoo, Sean only had four left on his hand.

Dot-like scars will disappear completely in no time.

Reaching out and touching Kulkan on his neck, Sean left Diagon Alley and returned home with his parents with satisfaction.

"Have Sean, Rob and Kulkan been fed?"

After hearing the words of his mother who was busy in the kitchen, Sean, who was sitting at the dining table, replied: "Hey, Rob and Kulkan are both asleep. The distance from Diagon Alley to home is not short, and they are tired too."

"Okay, let's eat too."

When he brought Rob and Kulkan back, Sean was worried that the two little guys, an owl and a snake, would conflict. As a result, the two little guys ignored each other. The big guy Rob might have looked down on him.

Not enough Kulkan, so I ignored this long white worm at all.

"Sean, Hogwarts starts on September 1st, and there is only about half a month left. Are you ready with everything you need to bring?"

After taking a bite of the roast beef made by his mother, Sean wiped his mouth and said, "It's ready. Don't worry, Mom. Even if I forget something, I can ask Rob to bring it to me. It's an eagle owl."

, you can bring heavy things.”

"That's right. There are house elves in Hogwarts. I'm not worried about your daily life, but you must have a good relationship with other people. Don't be like what you did before when you were in an ordinary school. Huo

Gewoz's students all have magic, and you can't guarantee that they won't cast a spell on you behind your back."

Although Sean's parents don't know magic, they are not Muggles but Squibs. They have lived in a magical environment since they were young. Although they have never attended Hogwarts, they have some knowledge of Hogwarts and the wizarding world.

A certain understanding.

Adelaide and Martha are not worried about many things that Muggle parents worry about, but many things that Muggle parents don't worry about because they don't understand them are instead their main worries.

After most of the dinner, Martha brought three desserts.

Dessert is apple pie, which Sean was not used to eating at first, but as he got older, he gradually tasted it, and it became his favorite dessert.

Dangdangdang...

While eating pie, there was a sudden knock on the living room window.

The three people looked towards the living room window and saw a brown owl standing there, holding a palm-sized package on its feet.

"The wizard's owl? Who brought us this?"

Yard stood up and opened the window, and the brown owl immediately jumped in, letting Yard untie the thing from its talons. Just when Yard wanted to find something to eat and drink for the owl, it turned around.

He flew out of the window and quickly left Sean's house without stopping.

"You are really well-trained." At this time, Sean had already guessed who sent the package, but he did not explain directly, but let Yade open the package.

The package was a palm-sized box. Yade took out a letter and a pure white pocket watch from it. The moment Sean saw the pure white pocket watch, he knew that he had guessed correctly. The package was indeed his.

A gift from my grandfather Gavin.

Yard looked at the letter in his hand, frowned slightly, then handed the letter to Sean and said: "Sean, this is the package sent by your grandfather. You should also read this letter..."

Ever since Sean's magic broke out, Yade felt that his son seemed to have matured a lot, and his views on many things were quite mature. Therefore, Yade was willing to share many things with Sean and listen to Sean's thoughts.

Sean did not answer the letter, but took the pure white pocket watch.

"I think the letter should be my grandfather's apology for what happened in Diagon Alley, right? This pure white pocket watch should also be something my grandfather sent me as an apology, right?"

After being stunned for a moment, Yade nodded slightly and said, "Yes, you are right."

"Okay, I get it. I know this pure white pocket watch well, so I'll accept it first. Dad, you and mom can rest assured. Now I'm just a kid who hasn't even gone to Hogwarts yet.

No matter what happens, my grandfather will never have any conspiracy against me, so you can rest assured."

"Okay, as long as you have an idea."

After nodding to his father and mother, Sean returned to the house with his pure white pocket watch.

Not to mention anything else, this pure white pocket watch is really a rare magic item!

It almost made Sean think that his grandfather really wanted to make up for himself and his father.
