In the Muggle Studies classroom.
Professor Burbage felt a bit bitter. After teaching at Hogwarts for many years, she knew that this year she had encountered two truly engaged students.
Yes, truly engaged, not like those previous students who attended just to get a certificate.
By the Black Lake.
Using his own feelings as a starting point, Ino channeled his magic, mixing it with the emotions within. This blend of magical emotion surged from his wand tip, releasing a vast amount of silvery, misty light into the sky.
These silvery glows slowly drifted upward...
It was said that within the walls of Hogwarts Castle, there was never a topic that remained eternal.
The minds of the young witches and wizards were as restless as wild Golden Snitches, and you could never predict where their thoughts would appear next.
As October rolled in, the atm...
Time always passes by unnoticed.
The next morning, the first golden rays of sunlight, like a punctual artist, unfurled the canvas of the sky on time, no matter how troubled the world might be.
At 8 a.m., Ino arrived at the library once more. Unlike his previous casual visits, he cam...
Defense Against the Dark Arts Office
Upon hearing the word "Nightmare" and seeing Ino's serious expression, Lupin couldn't help but smile wryly:
"I've mentioned before, all of this is based on unverified information. It's merely a reasonably reliable hypothesis."
Having wande...
Lupin proved to be quite capable, as the entire Defense Against the Dark Arts class not only taught the young wizards a new spell but also made everyone face their inner fears.
Of course, the content of these fears was varied. For example, Draco's fear was an oil lamp, while Pansy was afra...
On the fourth floor of the castle, in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
As soon as Lupin finished his question, several students raised their hands, and the question was taken by the first Ravenclaw boy who raised his hand.
"A Boggart is a magical creature, a shape-shifter th...
Hogwarts Great Hall.
From eleven in the morning, students began to trickle in.
Although lunch had not yet started, this did not prevent the young wizards from gathering to chat and boast, especially about the recent tumultuous events at the Ministry of Magic, which had become the ho...
The Care of Magical Creatures class had ended.
In a sense, it was a very unsuccessful lesson.
All the departing students had expressions of fear on their faces.
At this moment, Hagrid probably knew that he had messed up, not only disappointing Dumbledore's trust but also almo...
Under the warm morning sun.
Ino stood quietly on the lawn, watching Hagrid excitedly teach the young wizards how to open the Monster Book of Monsters.
There were some things he didn't plan to intervene in.
Whether it was Hagrid or Draco, they both needed to learn a lesson.
"Boom!"
In the Three Broomsticks, the fireplace suddenly flared up with a burst of green flames.
A portly middle-aged man emerged from it, looked around, and then walked towards a table in the corner.
"Sorry, Harry, I was delayed on the way!" Arthur Weasley looked a bit tired...
Some creatures seem to inherently induce fear, like the Basilisk and the Acromantula.
Ino crouched down, carefully examining the Basilisk's corpse in front of him.
At fifty feet long, it wasn't extraordinarily large, about the same size as an Ice Forest Anaconda. However, the Basili...
The Sorting Ceremony ended quickly.
As the last new student walked down the steps, the Great Hall erupted into enthusiastic applause, as everyone could hardly wait to enjoy dinner.
However, at that moment, Dumbledore stood up and approached the front of the hall. He surveyed each st...
Once upon a time, someone reviewed the Hogwarts Express in the Daily Prophet as follows:
"You can complain about its slowness, and you can complain about its lack of punctuality, but you can always trust its mission. No matter how long the journey, it will eventually deliver young wizards to H...
The infinite cold, the infinite gloom, and the endless despair.
Just moments ago, the Dementors had only been floating in the air, seemingly conducting a routine inspection, constrained by some rule, showing some restraint.
But now, all restraint was gone, and countless Dementors w...
Under the gloomy sky, dark clouds gathered like ink, obscuring the last ray of daylight.
The air was filled with a damp and decaying odor, as if even the wind had ceased to move, leaving only the distant, muffled sound of thunder, making the silence even more oppressive.
Suddenly, w...
In the small train compartment.
Upon hearing that he might have to duel Snape with a wand, Ron suddenly ceased his violent struggles. Although he still occasionally twitched, expressing his unwillingness, it wasn't as intense as before.
In truth, this wasn't a major issue, at least ...
September 1, 1993.
King's Cross Station in London was as bustling as ever.
Ino, carrying a suitcase, stood quietly beside the train after passing through Platform 9¾.
Dressed in a cobalt blue robe that highlighted his upright posture and matched his handsome, mature features...
The sun was slanting, and the day was well advanced.
In a quiet room, Ino was sound asleep, until a sharp knocking on the window broke the silence.
"Knock! Knock, knock!"
A gray long-eared owl stood outside the window, persistently pecking at the glass with its hard beak.
...
Spinner's End, No. 19.
As Ino's words dissipated into the air, the wooden house, seemingly forgotten by time, fell into an unprecedented silence.
This silence was not merely quiet but was akin to a heavy cloud pressing down, making it hard to breathe, with the atmosphere in the enti...
The screeching sound of wheels rubbing against the ground rang out as a double-decker bus came to a stop on Lily Street. A youthful and vibrant girl stepped off the bus.
"You should head home soon! Even though the Ministry of Magic has increased patrols, I still feel like Sirius Black is i...
Flourish and Blotts.
After Ino left, the bookstore descended into chaos.
The cause was the request from Hermione and Harry to buy some books.
What should have been a pleasant task instead filled the bookstore manager with dread.
With an expression like he was facing a ...
London, Diagon Alley.
Nearly a month had passed since the Sirius Black escape incident. During the first week, people were still on edge. However, as time went by and Sirius seemed to vanish without a trace, the incident's fervor died down, and Diagon Alley gradually regained its usual bus...
August 21, 1993.
Time passed slowly, and before he knew it, Ino had been staying at Newt's manor for more than half a month.
During this time, they exchanged as much knowledge about magical creatures as possible.
In the morning, in the dining room.
After finishing the ...
Dumbledore's sudden appearance caught both Ino and Newt off guard.
Quickly recovering, Ino was the first to greet him, "Good afternoon, Professor! The Care of Magical Creatures course was already a planned elective for me. As for Hagrid, though we aren't familiar with each other, I'm sure ...
Under the Shade of the Courtyard Trees.
The flames burned intensely, like a pulsating heart radiating heat.
The color of the flames had changed. The once vibrant orange-red was now fading, and the air around it seemed distorted by an invisible force, creating subtle ripples.
...
Compared to the sudden thunderstorms in London, Massachusetts, USA, was bright and sunny.
After a morning of discussions, Ino and Newt were sitting under the shade of a tree in the courtyard, leisurely enjoying afternoon tea.
"Mr. Scamander, perhaps we can change our perspective. Th...
August 5, 1993.
With less than a month left of summer vacation, it was an otherwise unremarkable day.
However, today held significant meaning for Ino; it was his 14th birthday, or more precisely, the day he arrived at the Krum Children's Welfare Institute.
...
On the s...
Massachusetts, USA.
In a remote little estate on the outskirts of Amherst, the gentle sunlight softly kissed the lawn.
An elderly man with white hair and beard sat leisurely in a wicker chair. Although his face was lined with age, his eyes sparkled with wisdom. At this moment, he se...
London, Gatwick Airport, Southwest.
Although not as famous as Heathrow Airport, Gatwick is also an international airport with comprehensive facilities, offering a wide range of shopping and dining options for travelers, including various shops, restaurants, and bars.
In the waiting ...
