The Silent Witch of Hogwarts

Chapter 409 Reunion with Miss Hilo

Chapter 409 Reunion with Miss Hilo

"Ugh~"

Stretching, Loila got out of bed. She sat there for a moment, rubbing her eyes, and then just stood there motionless.

Her blue eyes stared blankly ahead, her vacant gaze lasting a long time before she snapped out of it, alerted by a gust of cold wind seeping in through the window crack.

You seem to have slept quite well last night.

I should say I've been sleeping pretty well these past few days. After all, for Loila, the biggest and most difficult task is already more than half done. The rest is pretty simple, isn't it?

Taking down Karkaroff would be a piece of cake for Royla.

While stretching and yawning, Loila began to wash up.

The second match is about to begin. Although I don't know what Karkaroff meant by those words, I still need to hurry up and make some more preparations.

Regarding her communication with Miss Shiro, after much deliberation, Loira still chose Miss Shiro as her helper. After all, Miss Shiro was both ruthless and elegant, making her the best choice for this kind of situation!

Absolutely no sarcastic or sarcastic remarks intended!

Moreover, Miss Shiloh always gave Loira a sense of trustworthiness and reliance—much like Ms. Vida—

This may also be why Loila chose Miss Shiloh.

She had already written to Miss Shiloh in advance and received a reply from Miss Shiloh—but the reply seemed a bit simple—even a bit—brief?

"I see."

Miss Hilo only answered with these few words. Was she angry? Although she didn't know why, Loila still had a bad feeling.

But it should be nothing serious, right? After all, Miss Shiloh is my good friend.

"Bang bang bang".

"Um?"

Suddenly, there was a soft knock on the office door. Loila quickly glanced at Miss Nagini, who was still sleeping in the office, and only after confirming that she was not awake did she tiptoe to the door.

"Who is it?" she asked in a low voice.

"Professor Hamilton, it's me, Bibi." A respectful voice came from the doorway: "Headmaster Dumbledore has something to discuss with you."

"Ugh————"

Do you need something from me so early in the morning?

Loira sensed a slight surprise—dumbledore knew something? Probably not—if he really knew something, it should have been him coming, right? And maybe a dozen Aurors and Dementors along with them—

After thinking for a few seconds, Loila nodded slightly and said through the crack in the door, "I understand, please—please wait a moment—"

"6

As Loila finished packing and followed Bibi to the headmaster's office, she was surprised to find that not only Dumbledore was there, but also Mrs. Maxim, Barty Crouch of the Ministry of Magic, the disgusting Karkaroff—and then what—Professor Snape?

"Now that Miss Hamilton is here—shall we begin?" Dumbledore smiled gently at her arrival.

Everyone else also cast strange glances their way.

What does this mean?

Loila pursed her lips, her ominous premonition growing stronger.

What would you like to order?

-

"Two cups of coffee, no sugar," Shiloh Rozier, with her black hair and purple eyes, said in a low voice.

"Yes, miss, is there anything else you need?"

"No need." Hilo shook her head slightly, her words carrying an inexplicable coldness, which made the waiter nod and carefully leave.

This is an ordinary-looking Muggle coffee shop, but few people know that it is actually a coffee shop run by wizards.

Hilo only recently learned about this because of Loila's situation.

She's really something; it took her so long to write herself a letter, and the very first thing she mentioned was that she needed to talk to me — haha.

Hilo shook her head and took a sip of coffee. "Won't you come to me unless there's something wrong?"

She couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied—even though I had been busy with her affairs the whole time—

"Hello—Miss Hilo?"

Just then, a timid voice came from beside her. Shiloh raised an eyebrow, looked up, and saw a figure with her hair wrapped up and her head down.

That was indeed Roy's figure—she carefully looked around before sitting down opposite Shiloh.

Shiloh carefully examined the face beneath the hood before slowly saying, "You seem to be doing quite well."

"Yes—yes—" Loila nodded gently and said, "Hogwarts is...quite interesting—"

"Ah, what I mean is—Lord Grindelwald's mission went fairly smoothly."

"————" Hilo shook his head helplessly and said, "Let's have some coffee first."

She handed the unsweetened coffee to Loila.

"Okay—okay—um!"

Seeing Loila's pained expression, Shiloh's initial dissatisfaction vanished. She coughed lightly and said, "So, what brings you here this time?"

"Ah—that matter isn't urgent—" Loila shook her head and licked her lips. Perhaps because it was too bitter, her expression wasn't good, but she still smiled and took something out of her pocket.

It was a simple-looking necklace with a black crystal hanging from the bottom of a silver chain.

"What is this?" Although Hilo wasn't interested in jewelry, she had to admit that this thing, which was probably a magic array item, made her feel quite happy.

"This is a magic array artifact." Upon hearing this, Loila immediately began to explain, "I used—I used many kinds of composite magic arrays, in addition to the energy storage magic array—there's also a blocking magic array—"

"Of course, this doesn't qualify as a composite magic array yet. I've added something else to these two magic arrays—"

"Keep it brief." Hilo coughed, interrupting Loila. She really wasn't interested in the principles of magic circles, and she knew that if she didn't interrupt, Loila could talk for more than ten minutes.

"I'm so sorry!" Loila pursed her lips and quickly said, "This is a magic array necklace with the functions of blocking, communication, and weather prediction."

"Besides that, it can also automatically glow in the dark and store some things, but the space is very small, basically only about one bag."

Loila's introduction surprised Shiloh slightly. After hesitating for a few seconds, she said, "Why are you giving me something like this?"

""

"This is—this is a gift." Shiloh's direct question made Loira purse her lips. She clutched the hem of her dress and explained, "Because Miss Shiloh—helped me a lot—"

"Busy with my affairs again—"

"————" Shiloh was silent for a few seconds, then slowly reached out and took the necklace from Loila's hand.

"I'm not good at saying thank you," she paused, then said, "but I'm still very grateful to you—this necklace has really helped me a lot."

As she spoke, she put the necklace around her neck right in front of Loila.

"It probably doesn't suit me very well."

"No—not—very—very beautiful." Loila pursed her lips and smiled.

Seeing that smile, Shiloh smiled gently as well: "So—is there anything I can help you with?"

"Ah—yes—it's like this." Loila tapped her fingers and said, "Um—I need—I need Miss Shiloh's help—"

"Kill someone."

"Huh?" Shiloh's smile immediately froze.
