Hogwarts: The Cat Wizard of the Moving Castle

Chapter 5 Harry’s experiences at Moonlight Castle

"I'm going out." Moon picked up a small box, opened the door to the wilderness, and said goodbye to Harry. "Work hard. If you don't understand anything, ask Lucifer."

"Yes, Uncle Moon." Harry nodded.

Seeing Moon leaving, Harry also started talking to Lucifer: "Mr. Lucifer, where is Uncle Moon going?"

Lucifer replied lazily: "He should be hiding the castle to avoid being discovered by others. I saw him taking a box of silver chalk."

"What is silver chalk?" Harry became curious again.

"It's chalk made of silver powder with a special adhesive added to it. Silver powder has strong magical conductivity, so this thing is very useful when drawing some short-term magic circles." Lucifer explained patiently.

"How do you want to clean up this mess?" Lucifer suddenly asked.

Harry turned back, glanced at the messy living room, scratched his head and said, "First stack all the books, then clear away the clutter, and then throw away the unnecessary trash."

Lucifer nodded, and then suddenly remembered: "By the way, you have a colleague."

"colleague?"

There was a sudden rustling sound, and the broom that had been leaning behind the door suddenly started running with the broom head underneath, and even jumped when it met the small stairs of the entrance.

"Is this?!" Harry suddenly felt that he was no longer so surprised. For this entire castle, a walking broom is not surprising...

"It's a broomstick," Lucifer explained.

"Flying broomstick?!" Harry's eyes widened and he stared at it. This guy was covered in dust and there were many spider webs on the head of the broom. It looks no different from the Dursleys' brooms.

"That's right, this Mu En grabbed... ahem, gifts given to him by others. But Mu En usually doesn't use them, so I let him sweep the floor when he has nothing to do."

Harry suddenly couldn't help himself and reached out his hand. Unexpectedly, the broom suddenly twisted and avoided him.

"It will sweep the floor by itself. So you can throw the garbage on the ground and burn it when the time comes." After Lucifer explained, he urged: "Let's get started. If you don't know whether you should throw something away, you can ask me. "

"Okay." Harry nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and started cleaning.

Lucifer saw this and slowly narrowed his eyes. On weekdays, his biggest hobbies were sleeping, robbing, and burning.

Recently, the latter has not been able to do either, so it usually sleeps.

Not long after he narrowed his eyes, Harry's voice suddenly sounded: "Mr. Lucifer, what is this? Can you throw it?"

Harry picked up a small pile of parchment. The papers were all filled with symbols that Harry couldn't understand, as well as some graffiti or formations.

"Those are Mu En's manuscripts. You put them all together and wait for him to deal with them."

Harry nodded, put Moon's manuscripts in one place, and started cleaning the table again.

"What is this?" Harry picked up another leaf that had been flattened by the book.

"This... seems to be just a potion ingredient. Throw it away."

"What's this?"

"What is this?" Harry found another palm-sized stone pendant with a hollow center and a hole as big as an eye.

"That's the Apparition Stone, and it's together with the book "Arthur Spedwick's Illustrated Instructions: How to Enter the Fantasy World Surrounding You" next to your left hand." Lucifer was a little helpless, and his tone became more and more lazy.

"Of course, I don't know what you can see with it in this world. It was left behind by Mu En from a previous adventure."

Harry was a little stunned when he heard this. He placed his eyes on the Apparition Stone without risking anything and put the things away honestly.

During this period, Harry kept curiously asking Lucifer various questions, and although Lucifer looked lazy, he did not reject him, and he obviously had enough patience.

It wasn't until Harry picked up a grimoire made of human skin that he was startled, and most of his curiosity was driven away. Lucifer finally calmed down.

What Harry didn't expect was why Uncle Moon, who looked so solemn and solemn, had such a messy home.

Isn’t there a corresponding home magic?

If Mu En knew about Harry's thoughts, she might really have to spread her hands in apology, but she really didn't!

I don't know how much time passed, but when Lucifer opened his eyes again, Harry was mopping the floor. Dozens of huge books were piled in the corner according to size, and various sundries were placed on the table.

The remaining dishes and utensils in the restaurant have been cleaned, and the sofa cushions have been thrown into the washing machine.

At the same time, there were two large bags of garbage that had been cleaned out at the door.

"Ah~ I feel much more comfortable." Lucifer picked up the firewood on one side and put it under him, and then sighed comfortably:

"This guy Mu En used to complain that Hal was a lazy dog. Who would have thought that not long after that, he would turn into the most annoying person he had ever been."

Seeing Lucifer open his eyes, Harry turned his head and said, "Mr. Lucifer, what is the name of this castle?"

"Name..." Lucifer thought for a while and found that in his memory, this castle had no name.

It is even said that there is no need to name the castle.

"There is no name." Lucifer shook his head: "But when we were in the Caribbean, this place was not a castle, but a ship. It was named 'Moonlight Queen'. So you can also call this place Moonlight." Fort.”

"Moonlight Queen...why is it so strange? It's not handsome at all." Harry felt a little strange. Shouldn't the ship be named something like Trafalgar, Sovereign, and Victory? !

Hearing Harry's question, Lucifer couldn't help but laugh a little: "You said, that is the title of a royal ship. Pirates will not name their ships with such a name.

The styles of pirate ship names at that time were names such as the Black Pearl, Queen Anne's Revenge, and Silent Mary. "

"That's right..." Harry nodded somewhat understandingly.

Harry's hands and feet were indeed very fast, but the workload in the entire living room was too huge. In the evening, Moon came back again. After dinner, he walked into the basement with a bunch of books.

Harry, on the other hand, started cleaning up the coal ash and chopping wood for Lucifer. There was also dust accumulated in various corners, and it wasn't until a long time later that he was able to clean the entire living room.

Mu En walked up from the basement with a book in hand, took out a golden pocket watch and glanced at the time. It was past nine o'clock at night.

"It seems that I won't have the chance to play magic with you today. You have to go home, kid." He said with a smile.

Harry also felt a little pity, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. On the contrary, he enjoyed it, and the various books and miscellaneous items had opened the door to a new world for him.

He could feel that there were still too many secrets waiting for him to discover in the entire Moonlight Castle.

Of course, the prerequisite is that he must do his job well.

This is ten thousand times better than being a servant in the Dursley family!
