Hogwarts vampire professor

In front of the towering castle, the silver car slowly descended and landed on a pitch-black ground.

Tesla flapped its wings and landed next to the vehicle in advance, and quickly opened the doors on both sides for Dracula and Newt in advance.

This was a big help to Newt. He held Sniffing Teddy's meaty body in one hand and his old suitcase in the other hand. He didn't have any spare hands to open and close the car door.

Then, Tesla bent down and stretched one arm out to his side to signal Newt, preparing to lead him to the VIP guest room in the central tower of the castle.

"Mr. Scamander, please come this way." Tesla said, "The most distinguished guests in Dracula Castle have separate rooms and courtyards, located in the center of the entire castle."

"Well, actually, it doesn't have to be that troublesome." Newt hesitated and called Tesla, "I came here to this castle mainly to observe the special magical animals here, so you can arrange me in a place close to the natural environment. Just the fringes.”

However, what Newt didn't expect was that what he thought was a simple need would make Tesla feel a little bit embarrassed.

"Mr. Scamander, I understand your thinking, but the magical animals here are not all located in the same area." Tesla explained, "It's OK for common species such as vampire bats, there are them all over the castle. Yes, it is a common pet among vampires..."

"But rare species like bloody crows mainly live on the dead trees on the top of the mountain on the north side; if you want to find aquatic creatures such as corrupted goldfish, you have to go to the blood lake behind the castle; besides that , and there are species scattered throughout the surrounding areas..."

Tesla said helplessly, while cautiously turning his head to look at Dracula.

Dracula frowned slightly.

He invited Newt to the castle as a guest, not just to let him study the magical animals on the edge of the castle.

Dracula mainly wanted to hear Newt tell him from the perspective of an eyewitness what interesting things happened during the Global Wizarding War, that is, when he was asleep.

If Newt lived far away from him, what reason would there be for him to tell stories?

"It is definitely inappropriate to arrange it in the fringe area. That would mean that we would not be able to treat our guests well." Dracula said.

He decisively rejected Newt's request.

However, if Newt is simply placed in the center of the castle far away from magical animals, it will be very inconvenient for him to observe the actions of magical animals, and it is also inconsistent with hospitality.

"Let's do this, Tesla." Dracula thought for a moment and thought of a way, "Where are the rune teleportation magic circles that you usually use when you go out on duty? Install a few in Mr. Scamander's room. , try to cover every location.”

Then, he turned to look at Newt, "This way you can go to the area where various magical animals live nearby to observe at any time, Mr. Scamander."

Of course, the more important point is that Dracula himself can drop by at any time to listen to stories.

"Would this be too much trouble for you?" Newt asked hesitantly.

"It's not troublesome at all, Mr. Scamander." Tesla said quickly, "It just so happens that those subordinates who are responsible for setting up the teleportation magic circle have not been assigned such tasks for a long time, so we can let them practice by the way. Skills."

He stretched out his hand to his side again, beckoning Newt to come with him to the central tower of the castle.

This issue regarding guest accommodation was successfully resolved and Dracula nodded with satisfaction.

Then, he wanted to sneak away secretly so as not to get caught up in the various chores in Dracula's castle.

However, things always don't go as expected.

At the next moment, a heroic girl landed from the sky.

Her hair is half black and half white, and the pair of small and exquisite wings flapping behind her are also the same color, but the direction of her hair color is reversed.

As soon as the girl saw Dracula, she flapped her wings and flew over, landing lightly in front of Dracula.

"Okay, come back secretly and don't tell me!" She stared at her big red eyes and said angrily, "If Tesla hadn't just informed me of your return, wouldn't you have taken the opportunity to run away again? ?!”

"Ahem, I'm not planning to escape..." Dracula's face froze, he coughed twice, and said harshly, "Am I about to go back to the central tower to find you?"

At the same time, he was secretly angry.

Tesla, this guy, was clearly able to become friends with his Robert again after having his own leave. However, in order to improve Serena's impression of him, this guy actually betrayed his Earl!

And Dracula's sophistry obviously had no effect.

"You think I'm still a kid who's less than a hundred years old?!" Serena exposed his statement at a glance, "Then tell me, if you want to go to the central tower to find me, why are you facing outside the city? Spread your wings in the direction?”

She glanced at the city wall that Dracula was facing, then turned her head and started pointing at the leaping wings behind Dracula.

Dracula: "..."

He really couldn't refute this.

Dracula really wanted to escape from the city temporarily just now, so as not to be discovered by Selina, and then he might be dragged to deal with various backlogged incidents in the castle...

"Now that you're here, come over and help me see how to deal with these two things."

As Dracula expected, Serena said, grabbing his arm and flying towards the large conference room.

"Also, tell me in advance how long you plan to stay this time, so that you don't sneak away again!" Serena said aggressively.

…

The changing seasons are almost indistinguishable inside Dracula's Castle.

The days passed quickly, but even if the temperature was a few degrees cooler, the scenery inside and outside the city did not change at all.

The castle's yin energy was too strong, and all the flora and fauna in the nearby mountains and forests mutated.

The plants all over the mountains and plains are dead trees with few leaves, trees covered with strange sarcoma, vines stained with blood, and bushes with charred leaves...

No matter what season it is, these plants seem to look the same, because under the influence of the dark atmosphere, they have already developed a special ability to withstand drought, severe cold, strong winds, and heavy rain.

These plants never rely on the outside weather to survive, but live on the blood hidden deep in the ground.

The surrounding animals are also mutated species, such as bright red carnivorous rabbits, corrupted goldfish that live in blood water, and crows that feed on blood.

Newt was very satisfied.

His time living in Dracula's Castle can be said to have opened his eyes. There are almost no magical animals here that can be seen in the outside world. These species only exist in this area.

Newt leaves early and comes home late every day, and has used up several cowhide notebooks used to record magical animals.

It is said that the world's most famous magical zoologist is preparing to open a new book in the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" series, called "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them".

This will include all the special magical animals in and around Dracula's Castle.

Not only Newt was satisfied, Dracula was also satisfied.

After all, there is still a lot of danger near Dracula's Castle. Whether it is magical animals or various strange plants, they are obviously more aggressive and destructive than the animals and plants in the outside world.

Therefore, Newt often encounters species that cannot be solved by one person.

At this time, he needs to turn to Dracula for help.

Dracula is also very happy to help Newt solve these problems.

After all, to him, these are animals and plants in the vampire territory. They rely on the blood and yin energy brought by many vampires to become what they are now. Each of them has a powerful aura for the Lord Vampire Count. Very sensitive.

Whenever they sense the arrival of Dracula, these aggressive animals and plants will seem to wilt, obediently allowing Newt to study them repeatedly and cooperate with his sketching quill drawings.

Dracula will also ask Newt about the Global Wizarding War during the break when he is studying new animals and plants.

During this time, he has basically become familiar with all the major events that happened in the first half of this century, and also has some understanding of the trivial details of each event that Newt once knew.

It can be said that even if he were to communicate with older wizards such as Dumbledore and Professor Kettleburn in the future, his eyes would not be as dark as when he first woke up!

Of course, this period of time also had its flaws for Dracula.

Serena, as the actual manager of Dracula's castle, always couldn't stand Dracula's behavior of being a hands-off shopkeeper, and every once in a while she would try to find something for him to do.

Dracula also felt a little guilty about leaving the huge castle to his cheap daughter to manage, and he couldn't bear to directly refute her face, so most of the arranged things were dealt with casually.

After all, Serena now understands Dracula's concerns.

If this cheap daughter also imitates her and becomes a hands-off shopkeeper, then the whole castle will be completely in chaos...

…

Before we knew it, November and December passed by quietly.

Christmas, a very important holiday for both the Muggle and wizarding worlds, is coming soon!

However, vampires have never had a tradition of celebrating Christmas. The connotation of this holiday conflicts with their identity.

In contrast, Halloween two months ago still caused some waves in Dracula's castle.

Therefore, there is no Christmas atmosphere in Dracula's Castle on Christmas Eve. The vampire family is still doing their own things in an orderly and calm manner.

And Newt, who was deeply immersed in this atmosphere, gradually forgot about time and was completely immersed in the life of exploring new and magical animals...

Until one day, a magical animal that was incompatible with Dracula's castle broke the harmonious atmosphere——

In the early morning, it was the time when the vampire clan was just about to start resting.

Dracula had slept long enough in the previous hundred years, and now he basically had no idea of ​​sleeping.

So he once again walked out of his luxurious room and walked towards Newt's room where seven runes of teleportation magic circles were placed.

He was going to listen to Newt's rumors about the past of the two great wizards, Dumbledore and Grindelwald.

At this moment, a golden-red flame suddenly appeared out of thin air and burned violently at Dracula's door.

In the light of the fire, a big golden-red bird emerged and walked towards Dracula with proud steps.

"Fox?" Dracula looked at the big bird with some confusion. "What's wrong? Principal Dumbledore finally remembered and asked me to go back and teach the students?"

He muttered to himself, wondering what mistake Tom Riddle made in the Horcrux diary that caused Dumbledore to send Fawkes to look for him...

Phoenix Fox walked up to Dracula with proud steps and gently raised his sharp claws.

Dracula looked down and saw a rolled-up piece of parchment and an exquisite package tied to Fox's feet.

He waved slightly, and the rope used to bind the parchment and delicate packaging fell off on its own.

The two items flew up lightly and landed in Dracula's hands.

Fox glanced at Dracula arrogantly, as if he was a little uncomfortable with the gloomy environment nearby, so after delivering the things, he turned into a ball of golden-red fire and left.

Dracula first looked at the delicate package in his hand and found that it was a package of the latest trial version of blood-flavored jelly produced by Honeydukes. He couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

"Headmaster Dumbledore is quite good at getting things done!"

He smiled and opened another item in his hand, the rolled parchment.

There is a paragraph written in very elegant handwriting on the parchment——

"Dear Professor Dracula:

Before we knew it, we hadn't seen each other for nearly two months, and now we miss each other very much.

First of all, I want to wish you a Merry Christmas in advance! I've asked Fox to bring me my Christmas presents as a token of my sincere friendship.

Also, I want to remind you Professor Dracula of two things:

First, I am sorry to tell you that in the past two days, the teaching assistant you arranged, Tom Riddle, had some teaching accidents and now has to spend some time to recuperate.

Therefore, I have no choice but to ask you to end this parting vacation early and return to Hogwarts to continue teaching the little wizards;

Second, from what I understand, Mr. Newt Scamander should be staying with you. The unplottable and avoidance spells on Dracula's castle are too powerful for ordinary owls to find the exact location, so his family has not been able to contact him for some time.

If you see this letter, please find an owl that has been lingering outside Brown Castle for a long time and give the letter in its hand to Newt.

Hope we can meet again soon.

Sincerely,

a·d”

Dracula was slightly stunned after reading Dumbledore's letter.

Something happened to Tom Riddle's Horcrux diary? It actually takes some time to recuperate?

Dracula knew very well that Riddle, as a Horcrux that had received most of Voldemort's memories before he was sixteen, also had his own unique body. His strength and magical knowledge were actually not weak, and they were still growing rapidly. Growing.

So what did he do to push himself to the point where he had to recuperate?

In addition, he also realized that Newt had been here for a long time and had even completely forgotten to contact his family...

The protective spell of Dracula's Castle is responsible for this.

No owl can find this place, and only a powerful and spiritual magical animal like the phoenix can, with the help of Dumbledore, break through the many protective spells and successfully find Dracula.

Dracula snapped his fingers lightly.

A vampire bat quietly flew out from under the dark eaves and landed on his fingertips.

"Go to Brown Castle and bring in a nearby owl. Wait for it to come in and escort it for a while. Don't let other bats take advantage of its blood."

The vampire bat nodded humanely and flew out of the castle along the continuous shadows of the buildings.

Dracula walked to Newt's room as originally planned.

"Professor Dracula?" Newtra opened the door and her expression became a little helpless after seeing Dracula. "I really have nothing to say. As for the stories about Dumbledore and Grindelwald that you are interested in, Most of what I heard about the past is just hearsay..."

"Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry to hear your story today." Dracula chuckled and shook his head.

Newt couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

During this period, the earl was really about to have his brain hollowed out, but he still wanted to ask for help. He wanted to record the magical animals here with the help of Dracula, so he was embarrassed not to talk about it...

"I have something else to do today," Dracula said. "Do you know it's almost Christmas?"

"It's almost Christmas?!" Newt was stunned for a moment, and then he was shocked, "Oops, I have to go! I have promised Tina that I will come home to spend Christmas this year!"

Then, he began to pack his luggage in a hurry.

Judging from Newt's tone, it might have been several years since Tina promised to go home for Christmas.

But every year, he is obsessed with observing magical animals outside and forgets about time, so that he misses the festival...

"Mr. Scamander, don't worry, just take your time to clean up." Dracula persuaded, "It's still too late to go back now. At worst, I will teleport you home remotely!"

"There is an owl outside the castle that wants to deliver a message to you, but it has never been found. I just asked a vampire bat to pick it up."

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to write to Tina again!" Newt covered his face in frustration.

Not long after, a starved owl flew over carrying a red letter.

The vampire bat just now was carefully escorted beside it, for fear that the weak bird would fall out of the air midway and delay the mission assigned to it by the Earl.

"Why does this envelope look familiar?" Dracula murmured, looking at the red envelope in the owl's hand.

At the same time, Newt's expression changed drastically.

"This is...a roaring letter!"
