1.Chapter 1 Receive the Admission Notice


Chapter 1 Receive the Admission Notice

Wade Gray was lying in front of the window and saw a gray owl parked on the fence outside the window. It stared at him seriously with its brown eyes. Suddenly it lowered its head, spread its wings, and called out "coo" Voice.

Vader's face looked a bit strange.

If he was right, this owl seemed to have dropped a letter into his mailbox?

but……

This was 1991, and the "Harry Potter" series of novels hadn't come out yet, right?

It has been eleven years since he was reborn in this world. He grew from a babbling baby to eleven years old. He always thought that he was just reborn in the original world of England. For this reason, he also planned the development of his life...

He never thought... that he would receive a letter from an owl.

Isn’t this a materialistic world?
But... since people can be reborn, then if magic exists... it seems... quite reasonable...

--right?
——Maybe it’s just a bad joke.

With some uncertainty in his heart, Wade opened the door and walked out. He subconsciously looked at the owl, and the owl followed him and turned its head slightly.

I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but Wade just felt that its eyes were full of spirituality.

He held his breath, opened the mailbox, and took out the mysterious letter. When he saw the envelope clearly, his pupils shrank suddenly and his heart started to beat.

On the envelope, the detailed address and "Mr. Wade Gray" were clearly written. The parchment was extremely heavy, and the emerald green ink was not a commonly used color.

Turning over the envelope, there is a dark red wax seal and shield emblem on the back. There are four animals around the capital "H" letter: lion, eagle, badger and snake.

No stamps.

--yes! Owls as messengers! Of course no stamps are required.

Wade took a deep breath and opened the envelope with slightly trembling fingers.

【Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore]

Vader couldn't wait to skip the long list of titles and looked directly at the following: [Dear Mr. Gray: We are pleased to inform you that you have been approved to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry...Vice Principal (Female) Sincerely, Minerva McGonagall]

Wade read the letter over and over again, still unbelievable - this is actually the world of "Harry Potter"?

He unconsciously whispered: "Is this true? Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?"

The owl stared at him with wise eyes, waited for a while, then lowered his head to comb his feathers, curled up one foot, turned his head 180 degrees, and looked at the scenery behind him.

Wade was stunned for a while, then turned around and quickly returned to the house, rushed into his father's study, found the best envelope, embossed letter paper sprinkled with gold powder, and used a classically beautiful quill pen and scented ink. , solemnly wrote:
"Dear Ms. Minerva McGonagall: I am very honored to receive your letter. If this is not a prank, then I will be happy to study at your school, but I am not sure what is in the letter. How to purchase learning supplies, looking forward to your guidance...

My sincerest regards and wish you all the best!
Vade Gray"

The ink soaks into the letter paper and dries quickly. Vader folded it and stuffed it into an envelope, writing "Vice Principal Minerva McGonagall (accepted)" on the cover.

After he went out, he saw the owl still waiting patiently on the fence.

Vader approached and held up the letter: "Well...this is my reply. Please bring it to Vice Principal Minerva McGonagall."

The owl stretched out a talon to grab the letter, then tilted its head and looked at him expectantly.

"What else...oh, please wait!"

An idea flashed in Wade's mind, and he returned to the house and grabbed a handful of nuts. Then after handing it to the owl, it just looked down, then swept it away with its wings in disgust, spread its wings and flew away.

Wade: "..."

Don’t want to eat?
Fortunately, it didn't drop the letter. Back in the room, Wade sat at the table, opened the admission letter and read it over and over again, his heart pounding.

At this point, he had a sense of reality that he was admitted to Hogwarts.

but……

In the eleven years since he was reborn into this world, he has never discovered that he has any extraordinary abilities——

He didn't fly into a tree for no reason, nor did he bend a spoon with his mind or make a pen fly out of thin air.

Does his body really contain magical energy?

Or is it because adults' thoughts are too rational and objective, which invisibly suppresses the innate power in their bodies?

Vader clenched his fist and opened it again, but he still didn't feel anything like "invisible magic power flowing through his body".

He stared at a teacup in front of him, concentrating on his imagination.

"Clang!"

The tea cup suddenly shook out of thin air without any force, then fell down and rolled around on the table before slowly shaking to a stop.

Magic... is actually real...

Wade stared at his palm, stunned.

After his mood gradually calmed down, he dialed a phone number he knew by heart.

"Mom...do you believe...that magic exists?"

Less than half an hour later, a car stopped outside the door. Mr. and Mrs. Gray even forgot to take out their car keys and ran down in a hurry.

Wade went out to greet him, but before he had time to say hello, he was greeted by a hug that almost choked him.

"Oh my God! Oh, my God! Vader, my dear, you are actually admitted to Hogwarts - I am so happy! Really... I have been waiting for this day for too long - I thought - I thought you were like us, not - not having that chance - "

Her mother, Fiona, was sobbing and crying, her tears smearing her makeup and not caring about it. Wade's father, Ferdinand, hugged them. Although he didn't speak, his eyes were moist.

The more Wade listened, the more uncomfortable he felt: "Wait, what do you mean? You guys-" He broke away from his parents' suffocating embrace: "Do you all know Hogwarts?"

"Of course!" Fiona said while wiping her tears with a handkerchief: "My mother and your grandparents are both wizards. I have been looking forward to going to Hogwarts since I was a child. It's just..."

Ferdinand put his hands on the shoulders of his wife and children and pushed them into the house: "Go in and talk - so as not to be seen by ordinary people."

After some explanation, Wade understood the whole story.

It turns out that his grandparents and grandmother are both wizards, and the relationship between the two families is also very good. But because of the war, Fiona and Ferdinand, who were born in exile, are both squibs - that is, they have magic genes but do not have the ability to cast magic.

In the flames of war, it is difficult for the wizard himself to survive, let alone two squibs? After it was confirmed that they had no magical abilities, the two were sent to be raised by Muggle families.

Over the years, they have completely adapted to Muggle life, but they have always hidden their longing for the magical world in their hearts.

However, Vader has never shown any magical abilities since he was born. The two thought that he was also a squib. In order to prevent their children from experiencing the pain of expectation and disappointment like themselves, they concealed the existence of magic.

"I didn't expect - I didn't expect you to be a wizard at all... I mean - I've actually been waiting for this period of time, but it's already July 30th and you haven't received the letter yet... I thought …”

Fiona cried and laughed, and was finally comforted by the father and son, who went to the bathroom to wash up.

After calming down, Ferdinand looked at his eleven-year-old son, with worry that could not be hidden in his eyes:
"Hogwarts...Oh, Vader...I really don't know, in your capacity, how can you go there?" Is a school... a good thing..."
