MTL - Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic-Chapter 80 Lemay's
Nicole May made a parallel stroke with her left hand, and the sapphire ring left a faint scratch in the air in front of their eyes. The scratches continued to extend, gradually forming a light blue arch.
"This...this is...?" Auston couldn't close his mouth in surprise.
"I like to call it the magic door. Its only benefit is that it saves us a lot of time." Lemay said with a wink, "I usually use it to walk directly from the bedroom to the bathroom."
"But, Mr. Flamel, aren't you afraid of those Muggles seeing it?" Auston looked around vigilantly. There were many Muggles walking back and forth around them, and some Muggles even went straight through the arch.
"They don't notice at all. Only me, and you holding my hand, can really pass through."
"But..." Auston was a little nervous, "I couldn't even use Floo and Apparition when I was in the UK, I'm not sure if I could..."
"Don't worry," Nicole May smiled. "This thing doesn't act on your body, but shortens the distance by distorting space. Even if the Muggle is pulling me now, he can pass."
After finishing speaking, Nicole didn't let Auston hesitate any more, he directly pulled him through the arch.
"Oh! You stupid old bastard! Why are you here again!"
Maybe Nicole Meyer was deliberately trying to play a prank on his wife, or maybe he really went the wrong way. The two of them actually went straight to the kitchen of Lemay's house.
Madame Lemay was preparing lunch in the kitchen when their sudden appearance startled her. She tapped M. Lemay's forehead with her floured finger, looking very angry.
"It's all you old man! My super surprise cake is just exposed!" Madame Lemay said indignantly.
Nico didn't look angry at all, but kept smiling. He patted Auston on the shoulder,
"Come on, get to know me, this is my wife, Perenal Flamel."
Hearing Nico's acceptance, Madame Lemay immediately changed her face, looking at Auston with a face full of surprise.
Facing this kind old woman, Auston did not feel restrained at all. He smiled and extended his hand, and said politely, "Hello, Mrs Flamel. My name is Auston Brown."
"Oh, what a polite child!" Madame Lemay wiped her hands on her apron, stepped forward and gave him a big hug, "Welcome to Lemay's house!".
Auston was almost suffocated by strangulation. Madame Lemay rubbed him in her arms for a while before letting go.
"Child, go upstairs and change your clothes. Lunch is almost ready." Madame Lemay touched his head and said kindly.
Nico took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the flour from his forehead, then pulled Auston up.
"Come on, I'll show you to your room."
Auston followed Nico out of the kitchen. Madame Lemay kept bringing them to the door of the kitchen, and then stood kindly watching them until they disappeared at the corner of the stairs.
"Don't blame her," explained Mr. Lemay to Auston as he climbed the stairs. "We haven't had children since our last child died in 1815, so she couldn't have liked you when she saw you. Yes. Of course, so do I." He turned to Auston and smiled kindly.
The tall and thin old man's shadow was pulled by the sunlight through the window. His back was a little lonely, and Auston felt a little uncomfortable. Watching relatives leave one by one is the price of immortality.
He was even a little worried, if eating the Philosopher's Stone himself would have the same effect.
After walking for a long time, they stopped in front of a door on the third floor. Mr. Lemay turned the handle of the door and walked in first.
"Forgot to say, welcome to Lemay's house!" Mr. Lemay welcomed Auston into the house with open arms.
Auston stood the box beside the door and carefully looked at the furnishings in the room.
The whole room has a strong French style, with a beautiful triangular sofa and a huge four-poster bed. What excites Auston the most is the bright bay window. The sun shines through the alternating windows to brighten the whole room.
He approached the window, and outside the window was the Seine River.
Lemay smiled and sat by the bay window,
"Well, this was chosen by Perenal carefully. In the future, you can enjoy afternoon tea here while admiring the Seine River."
Auston looked at LeMay in surprise.
"Thank you, Mr. Flamel, and Mrs. Flamel."
"Haha," Lemay patted his shoulder, "Quickly change your clothes and come down for lunch later."
He got up as he spoke, "I have to go back and change clothes. Really, every time I go out, I have to wear such a grand dress. I'd rather stay in the room for the rest of my life."
Auston sent Mr. LeMay off, changed his clothes, and prepared to go downstairs.
After going out, he finally understood why Mr. Lemay said he would use that ring to walk directly from the room to the bathroom. Auston wore it directly from the airport to the kitchen of Lemay's house. Although he didn't see the outside, it didn't affect the castle image of the house in his heart at all. It was really too big! When I came up, I followed Mr. Lemay, he didn't pay attention to the road~www.novelbuddy.com~ When I went down, I couldn't find the stairs at all.
After he passed his door for the third time, he heard a small voice.
"Look, the boy who came to England and turned back. He's really stupid."
Only then did Auston notice that across from his room, a brown wooden door opened with a small crack, and four thieves were looking at him with big eyes.
He slammed the door open and knocked over the two little guys beside the door. Only then did he notice that they were two house elves.
"I said, the British are rude, you still don't believe it." The elf in the purple floral dress stood up and patted the ashes on his body, complaining.
Auston became embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you, I... I can't find my way."
"Oh, sir, you don't need to apologize, you are my master's honorable guest." Another elf also stood up, and he humbly saluted Auston.
"I'm Tony," said the elf, pointing to the elf in the little dress. "Her name is Dolly, and we are the house-elves of the Flamel family. If you want, I can show you the way."
Auston nodded gratefully, "I just need it, please Tony."
The elf Dolly crossed her arms, pouted and snorted in disdain.
Tony saluted again and led the way, "Please come with me, sir."
Auston quickly followed Tony. Seeing them leave, Dolly hurriedly ran in front of Auston and walked side by side with Tony.
"Tell you, I'm not trying to show you the way. We have to walk in front of the guests. This is the rules of the Flamel family. Even an Englishman doesn't understand you."
Auston smiled helplessly, he was really an arrogant little guy.
