Chapter 280 Neville's Crow Godfather
"You say that so easily. How are you going to find Pettigrew?"
Bruce shook his head and said, "Don't forget, the most critical timeline has changed. Pettigrew can't still be in the Riddle house."
During the battle with Paradox Bat, Bruce briefly visited the fourth grade.
There he met Peter Pettigrew, holding the truly resurrected Voldemort.
But now it’s different. The celestial bodies have intersected, the timeline has been re-arranged, and the whereabouts of Peter Pettigrew has become a complete mystery.
"I don't think he'll be at the Riddle house, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to send a little brother over to check first."
Katoom said, "Mice have their own ways, but owls have their own ways. Believe me, Peter Pettigrew can't hide for long."
I hope so.
Bruce chose to trust Katum's efficiency.
Although this guy has been unreliable more than once or twice, there is no better way now than to trust him.
He was not targeting Pettigrew, mainly because this guy's features were too conspicuous. Bruce was still in front of the terrifying wave of ratmen yesterday, and it left the deepest impression on him, so it would be right to keep an eye on Pettigrew first.
Besides Pettigrew, there were many people in Harry's world who were easily seduced by chaos.
There are still many things to pay attention to after Bruce.
……
Finally, after the Quidditch World Cup, the day had come to return to Hogwarts.
Bruce boarded the Hogwarts Express. The weather outside was extremely bad. Heavy rain was hitting the windows, and a layer of rain curtain hung on the glass.
Hermione and Bruce were in a cubicle. She took off her cloak and twisted the water droplets on it with a helpless expression.
"After we get off the car, we will have a long way to go to the castle."
Hermione sighed and said, "Hopefully the rain will be lighter by then."
Otherwise we'll have to get caught in the rain again.
dong dong dong-
At this moment, someone knocked on the compartment door and Neville's face appeared outside the door.
His face flushed, and he seemed to want to say something very important, but when the words came to his lips, he found that he couldn't remember them.
He could even forget such an important thing. Neville was so annoyed that he wanted to hit himself on the head.
"What's wrong, Neville?" Hermione asked confusedly, "Why do you look like a boiled crab?"
"me……"
Neville stammered, and after a long moment he could not think of what to say. He was so ashamed that he turned and ran away.
Hermione and Bruce were left staring at each other, completely confused about what Neville was doing.
"Why don't we catch up and ask?" Bruce said, "Maybe it's something important?"
"Probably not." Hermione shook her head. "Neville is always like this. The only things he forgets are trivial matters."
Bruce didn't comment after hearing this.
At this special moment, we should pay attention to everything.
"I'd better go and ask."
Bruce said, "It's okay, I'll be back soon."
He stood up, walked out of the compartment, crossed the long train tunnel, and came to where Neville was sitting.
For some reason, Neville was sitting alone in a compartment, which was a bit unbelievable. The Hogwarts carriages were always very crowded, so there was no reason to reserve a compartment for Neville.
"Why are you sitting here alone?"
Bruce said, "Our compartment is very spacious. Why don't you sit with us? Why don't you consider Hermione and I your friends?"
"No, no!"
Neville quickly explained, "I just have a little..."
"A little bit of what?" Bruce demanded.
He looked into Neville's eyes and felt that the boy was hiding something. Among other things, Bruce noticed that there was a circle of water stains on the windowsill of this compartment.
It was obvious that Neville had just opened the window.
This is a bit hard to explain. It was raining so hard outside, why did Neville open the window?
Neville seemed a little hesitant in response to Bruce's questioning, but Bruce ignored him and walked directly to the window. He took a quick look and found something unusual.
"Why is there a feather here?"
Bruce bent down and picked up a black feather from the ground. It looked a bit like a crow's feather.
That’s not right. Neville’s pet is a toad, so where does the crow come from?
"That is……"
Neville still wanted to hide it, but Bruce sat next to him and put his arm around Neville's shoulders very naturally.
"We are friends, right?"
Bruce said, "There should be no secrets between friends, Neville, think about it, have I ever lied to you?"
Of course I have been cheated, more than once.
But a small lie is not a lie. Putting that aside, Bruce is completely honest with Neville.
Neville thought about it and seemed unable to find the memory that Bruce had lied to him.
Not only that, Bruce once told Neville very sincerely that friends should treat each other with sincerity.
Neville felt deeply ashamed. He felt sorry for Bruce because he had indeed hidden something.
"Okay, Bruce, I say."
Neville lowered his head and said, "In addition to Leif, I do have another pet, it's a crow, and it's a magical crow."
"Magic crow?" Having the word "magic" in the name of a pet is not a good thing.
Ron had previously raised a magic mouse without knowing it, and everyone knew what happened.
Bruce now has a vague sense that this matter is probably not a small matter.
Fortunately, I followed and asked clearly.
"How do you know it's a magical crow?" Bruce asked solemnly, "Can it transform into a human?"
"No."
Neville shook his head, "It won't turn into a human, but it can speak, and I'm the only one who can hear what it says."
Ok?
At this moment, Bruce's expression suddenly became strange.
He organized his words and asked, "Let me guess, that crow won't tell you that he is some kind of demon king who can take you to other worlds and force you to be your godfather, right?"
"of course not!"
Neville's eyes widened. "Bruce, how could you think of such a strange thing? A crow is a crow, how could it be a godfather of a human being?"
Of course it's possible, Bruce thought.
If even an owl can be a godfather to a human being, why can't a crow?
They are all birds, so we can’t treat them differently, right?
However, since Neville denied it, Bruce felt relieved.
Those bird-shaped demons are not good people. Even a smart man like Bruce has been fooled many times. Even a simple-minded person like Neville may not even realize that he has been betrayed.
Neville had already opened up and began to tell the origin of the crow.
"It came out of the blue."
Neville said, "I asked it many times, but it was always unwilling to tell me where it came from. It just said it wanted to stay with me and help me become something, something...what was it?"
Bruce waited quietly as he struggled to think of the word.
Finally, Neville thought of it.
"Supreme Archmage!" he said. "Yes! That's the word, Supreme Archmage!"
Bruce frowned.
To be honest, he didn't look down on Neville. On the contrary, Bruce was always full of confidence in Neville and felt that he had a great potential in the future.
At least it would be no problem to cut off one of Voldemort's Horcruxes with one sword.
But, the Supreme Sorcerer?
Regardless of whether Bruce's identity exists in Harry's world, even if it does, he and Neville can never be matched together, right?
Is that crow blind? How could it say such nonsense?
"That's definitely not a proper crow!"
Suddenly, Katum popped out from behind Bruce and expressed this opinion.
First of all, there is no doubt that the crow is by no means a good bird. It is a method used by the devil to deceive people.
Besides, you can't persuade Na'vi to do anything else, but persuade him to become the Supreme Sorcerer?
Neville was afraid he couldn't believe it himself.
Bruce looked serious at this time and asked Neville: "Neville, where is the crow now?"
This kind of evil thing must not be allowed to stay. Now Batboy is a little scared.
If it had found someone like Malfoy instead of Neville, I'm afraid the other party would have really fallen into the trap.
Fortunately, Neville is simple.
"It just went out of the window." Neville said, "It suddenly said that there was a sign of danger and it would leave for a while and come back to find me later."
This happened when Neville came back.
Just now Neville went to Bruce to ask for some advice on bird-raising. Bruce has kept his owl fat and plump, so he must have a lot of experience.
But he only walked through one carriage, and when he saw Hermione and Bruce, he completely forgot what he was going to do.
Then when he came back, he saw his crow had squeezed open the window, with half of its body sticking out.
Finally, it left behind these words and disappeared in the wind and rain.
"A sign of danger?" Bruce thought thoughtfully, "Isn't it about me?"
That must be the case. Bruce is now extremely wary of all kinds of magical creatures that suddenly appear. If such a strange crow appears in front of him, he must take it seriously.
"You're definitely talking about me!"
Katoom suddenly nodded and said, "It must have realized that Hogwarts Castle is my, King Katoom's, territory. If it doesn't want to swear allegiance to me, it can only run away in disgrace!"
Bruce was speechless about Katum's shamelessness.
Now that the crow has escaped, Bruce can only remind Neville: "Next time if the crow comes back, you must tell me, understand?"
Neville nodded. He always had full trust in Bruce.
This is the only way to handle this matter for now.
In fact, knowing that the third world is the Warhammer world, one should immediately be alert when hearing the word crow.
One of the Four Chaos Gods, Tzeentch, the god of trickery and change, his chosen one, often appears in the form of a crow.
Katum had not failed to think of this.
only--
That's Tzeentch!
Represents wisdom, cunning and heresy.
Why not choose Neville as His Chosen One?
Katum felt it was weird no matter how he looked at it; the styles of these two people could not be integrated together.
