Chapter 60 The Eternal Realm has brought gifts for its runaway child.
Two hours later, when Harry woke up from the cold in bed and was about to ask Kane to make him some meatballs, he was somewhat surprised to see that Kane did not look like he was on vacation at all. Instead, Kane was incredibly diligent and was already sitting at his desk writing something.
"Kane, honestly, isn't it the Christmas holiday season? Is it really necessary to be this busy?"
Harry said with a bitter expression, because the feeling of watching his good brother work hard while he himself wanted to work hard but didn't want to, and could only lie in bed like a corpse, was really unpleasant.
Kane picked up the notebook he was working on and tossed it to Harry, who caught it, glanced at it, and looked at Kane with some shock.
"Are you doing my homework?"
Kane nodded as he heard Harry's trembling voice.
In that instant, Harry felt like he had just acted like a complete jerk, even though he hadn't used any harsh words, just a simple accusation.
But what if he's doing his homework?
How can I put it? He even wants to kneel before Kane now and start singing passionately.
I always want things from you but never say thank you.
Just as Harry was immersed in what he called fatherly love, Kane suddenly coughed and said, "Harry, well, I have something to tell you."
"What's wrong?" Harry asked.
"Um... I just used some of your stuff." Kane pointed to the Galleon bag hanging above Harry's bed.
Harry glanced over and waved his hand dismissively: "It's just some Galleons, no problem! My money is your money!"
He was so generous, it gave me the urge to even associate with him in the underworld.
However, Kane ultimately added a reminder: "You'd better take a look."
Although Harry didn't know why Kane said that, he still turned around and reached for the Gallon bag to see what was going on.
However, the mere act of turning around and lifting the blanket caused the Galon bag to tremble...
"...So...it's empty?" Harry stiffly turned his head and looked at Kane, speaking in a low voice.
"Obviously, that's why I'm doing your homework for you." Kane said, then returned to his desk. As long as he didn't turn around to look at Harry, Harry wasn't angry.
This is about cosplaying as a turkey.
However, the expected screams from Harry didn't come. Instead, there was an incredibly calm voice: "We need to get more money when we go to Diagon Alley. Kane, you'll come with me then. Remember to bring your money bag."
Harry had barely finished speaking when Kane, who was doing his homework, began to sing softly, "Always wanting from you but never..."
"Uh, don't do that, I'm really uncomfortable with it." Harry shuddered, looking disgusted. "By the way, what did you do with all those Galleons?"
"They melted those Galonons into gold, trying to make something, but they failed."
Kane sighed helplessly. The Rebirth Amulet was formed in an instant, probably the moment he rubbed it out with his hands.
However, after that instant, for some unknown reason, starting from the ruby in the center of the amulet, it suddenly shattered outwards.
One ruby and three pieces of gold—these two items, which I used up one by one, were simply wasted.
"How about we go to Diagon Alley with Hagrid before the holidays end?" Harry suggested.
Kane shook his head. After all, the fact that the Rebirth Amulet shattered was quite telling. The rules of the Eternal Realm couldn't be directly applied to the real world, which was understandable.
"Of course, it's also possible that my ruby isn't of good enough quality?" Kane murmured a rather unprofessional, even wildly imaginative, thought.
"Okay, you're talking in a way I don't understand again. Anyway, just tell me what you need and if I can do it." After saying that, Harry got out of bed and went to find something to eat.
"Thanks, you've finished all your homework." Kane said, tossing the last assignment to Harry, while he opened his cabinet to look at the meat sculpture he had made earlier.
After all, if even a high-level item like the Rebirth Amulet can't be used, then the flesh block statue, a somewhat novice-friendly method of rebirth...
Sure enough, the meat statue that was originally placed in the cabinet had now turned into a pile of rotting matter. Fortunately, it didn't smell and the house-elves hadn't taken it away.
Zi Ao~
Ron, looking utterly dejected, had just returned from the library. He remembered the task Hermione had assigned him before she went home: to find the name he'd heard from Hagrid—Nicolas Flamel.
Is this name really going to exist? Maybe it's just a code name or something, like Project Nicolas Flamel, rather than a person's name.
Just as he was feeling helpless and puzzled as to why Hermione would assign him such a task, given that he always felt sleepy at the sight of letters, he suddenly noticed a brief moment of liveliness in the dormitory...
Raise your head again...
"Harry! Kane! What brings you back?"
Ron was incredibly excited and cheered.
"I came back to find you because I was worried you'd be lonely at Hogwarts," Kane said, stretching.
"Stop kidding me, I'm serious. What's wrong with you guys? You only stayed home for one night?"
Looking at Ron's curious face, Kane and Harry told him that after arriving in London last night and successfully making the Dursleys' trip a waste, they went through a series of events similar to those in the movie "Lost in Thailand" and finally arrived in Little Hangleton, where they spent the whole morning digging graves before finally returning not long ago.
"Wow, your holidays are really quite colorful." Ron really didn't know whether to be amazed or embarrassed.
After all that trouble, it's just about digging up graves? That's a bit too abstract.
However, the moment he learned that digging up graves could yield gems, he suddenly no longer found it abstract.
"So, can you take me with you next time you dig up a grave? I'm suddenly regretting not going with you guys." Ron said with a poor smile and a relieved expression.
"Next time, there will be another opportunity."
At night, Hogwarts is very welcoming, most of the time, as long as you don't encounter those abstract headmasters.
For example, right now, Dumbledore specifically instructed the kitchen to host a Christmas dinner for these young wizards who have homes they can't go back to, don't want to go back to, or simply don't have homes at all, just like most families.
Moreover, because there were few people staying on campus during the Christmas holidays, they didn't even separate the tables. The four colleges and professors were all at one table, and at first glance, it looked like a family.
However, even within a family, some people will be disliked, such as Kane, who was sitting right across from Snape.
The two faced each other awkwardly. Snape looked at the lasagna in front of him, then at Kane across from him, and for a moment some unpleasant memories came to mind.
The Christmas dinner ended with Snape feeling utterly disgusted.
Back in his dorm, Kane was finally able to get a good night's sleep. Heaven knows what he went through last night and all day today... Oh, and by the way, try to reduce the flames of the campfire on your bedside table.
Don't let the campfire scare the Christmas tree. After doing all this, slowly fall asleep until the bell rings.
The next day, Kane sat up in bed.
He heard that "ding" sound last night; the Eternal Realm had sent a gift to its runaway child!
