Unseal at Hogwarts

But Ruberos walked step by step beside Tom, his golden eyes observing the surroundings vigilantly.

The corridor was silent, even the portraits were affected by Tom's mood, smiling as they watched Tom tiptoe past them.

"Meow?" The figure of Mrs. Norris suddenly appeared in front of her. Tom immediately stopped and looked around in panic.

Mrs. Norris was here, which meant that Filch was also nearby. It would be really embarrassing if he was caught by Filch before he started taking action.

"Meow~"

Mrs. Norris obviously spotted Tom and Kerubelos. It twitched its ears and started walking towards Tom.

"Mrs. Norris?" Filch's voice sounded not far away, "What did you find?"

Tom became even more panicked.

But Kerubelos on the side remained calm and calm, patting Tom's leg with his paw, indicating to Tom that there was an empty classroom not far away.

Tom quickly dodged and hid. When he turned around, he saw Kerubelos still calmly accepting Mrs. Norris's leg rubbing in the corridor. He was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Ta-ta-ta-ta"

There was a sound of rapid footsteps, and Filch had already arrived.

"Let me see who this is." Filch chuckled and approached.

Tom gestured vigorously to Kerubelos, asking him to come over and hide with him, but Kerubelos was only looking at Mrs. Norris and didn't see Tom's movements at all.

"Aha!" Filch arrived anyway, "It turns out to be you!"

Tom was so frightened that his heart was in his throat.

It's over, now he is going to be caught. Seeing Croberus, Filch should know that he is also nearby - after all, he is the only one in Hogwarts who has pets like Croberus.

.

Tom sighed resignedly in his heart and was about to push the door open and walk out, but Filch's next words made Tom put his raised foot down again.

"Are you here to play with Mrs. Norris again today?" Filch said to Kerubelos in a gentle voice that Tom had never heard before. "What a poor little guy. Fortunately, you still have Mrs. Norris."

Be a playmate - Mrs. Norris is also very happy recently! Since you are here, Mrs. Norris will stay with you."

Tom's heart finally dropped in his throat.

It seems that Rubelos often sneaks out in the middle of the night for his own good.

From what Filch said, he probably didn't realize that Tom came out with Kerubelos this time.

After Filch finished speaking, he bent down and touched Mrs. Norris, then walked away with a click.

Mrs. Norris meowed slightly at Filch's back and sat obediently next to Kerubelos.

"call--"

After confirming that Filch was gone, Rubelos' muscles all over his body relaxed and he let out a long breath.

It raised its paw and patted Mrs. Norris, then turned its head to indicate that Tom could come out.

Tom then slipped out of the empty classroom.

"Is it really okay to take it with you?" Tom asked softly.

Mrs. Norris looked at Kerubelos, then at Tom, then stood up and walked to the other side of Kerubelos, farther away from Tom.

"It's okay." Kerubelos replied quietly.

It took the lead and walked towards the castle gate, with Mrs. Norris following closely on the other side of Keruberos, her head looking left and right from time to time, as if she was on guard for Keruberos.

Under the escort of Mrs. Norris, Tom and Kerubelos left the castle safely.

Mrs. Norris squatted at the gate of the castle and watched Tom leave, but Rubelos did not forget to turn around and say goodbye to Mrs. Norris.

"This is really a strange feeling." Tom jogged all the way to the edge of the Forbidden Forest, "I should be the first student to enjoy Mrs. Norris's help in violating school rules, right?"

"That's for sure." Rubelos puffed up his chest and said proudly, "I spent a lot of effort to buy it."

Tom cast a grateful glance at Kerubelos.

"Are you sure that the one during the day is the 'Xiang' card?" Tom held up the silver-haired basswood wand and carefully felt the position of the Clow card while carefully moving towards the Forbidden Forest. "Its energy fluctuations are very strong. The ' that appeared before

Shadow, I can only feel its condition when I'm in the castle, and I can't feel it once I leave the castle. But with this Xiang, I can clearly know its location no matter where I am."

"Because 'Xiang' has a much gentler temperament than 'Shadow'. It is similar to 'Wind' in that both are Clow cards that don't like to cause trouble." Kerubelos explained, "But 'Shadow' is different.

"It is quite naughty and likes to show off, so it will deliberately hide its location."

Their feet stepped on the path covered with branches and leaves in the Forbidden Forest, making a soft sound.

"It's incredible." Tom cautiously climbed over a section of the tree trunk that was lying on the ground and sighed, "It feels like the Clow cards are really alive."

"Because Crowley Reed is an extremely great magician!" Kerberos said matter-of-factly.

Right.

Tom smiled.

Kerberos is also one of the magical products created by Clow. Since Kerberos can act like a real creature and even has its own independent thoughts, it is not enough for Clow cards to have different personalities.

Already.

They kept walking, gradually approaching the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

"It's very close." Tom said, "I feel that Xiang is not far ahead."

Ruberos nodded in agreement.

In order to prevent accidents, Tom unlocked the key.

The aura of the Clow Card is getting stronger and stronger, and both Tom and Kerubelos are extremely cautious.

After a few steps, the vision suddenly opened up.

Several yew trees were struck with great force and fell in all directions.

The moonlight was no longer blocked by the leaves and swayed freely, shining on the vacant forest floor.

There was a big snow-white bird lying on the forest floor. It was bathing in the moonlight comfortably. When it heard the movement from Tom's side, it just raised its eyes and glanced at Tom.

Tom was holding two wands, a little dazed.

"Xiang" was more than a hundred times smaller than what he saw during the day. Judging from "Xiang's" size during the day, Tom was ready for a tough fight, no matter how docile it was.

Unexpectedly, the facts gave him a huge surprise. Not only did "Xiang" become much smaller, his temper was even gentler than Tom had imagined.

Look at the big bird lying down in front of you. Every part of his body is revealing the message "Seal me quickly."

"Please give me a dozen of these Clow cards!" Tom laughed happily, "This way I don't have to worry about my identity being discovered all day long, hahaha."

Tom pointed the bird-headed wand at the big bird: "Return to your original appearance, Clow!"
