Arrangement

"Going to Egypt to attend this year's International Alchemy Convention?"

After hearing Albert's suggestion, Isabelle asked in confusion, "Weren't you planning to watch the Quidditch World Cup?"

"The timing doesn't conflict. Once we've attended the International Alchemy Convention, we'll still have time to rest for a while before going to the Quidditch World Cup," Albert said with a smile.

"But..."

Isabelle hesitated. After all, now that she had graduated, she could no longer do whatever she pleased as she had before.

"Besides, you still have plenty of time to finish the Ancient Runes Guide. More importantly, I want you to live happily, rather than be troubled by certain things." Albert looked at Isabelle and said gently, "This is a rare opportunity. Catherine will be going too. She wrote to me a while ago and mentioned it in her letter. Have they contacted you?"

"We talked through the Two-way Mirror. They said they'd opened a Potions shop and were making witches in the United States beautiful." Isabelle nodded, indicating that she knew about it. "Valeria also asked whether I could arrange somewhere for them to stay. It seems they plan to come to England at the beginning of August."

"We can arrange for them to stay at the inn at The Leaky Cauldron when the time comes," Albert said without hesitation.

"Wouldn't that... be a little inappropriate? When you went to Catherine's home before, it seemed..." Isabelle hesitated. Their relationship was fairly good, after all, and tossing her friends into The Leaky Cauldron somehow did not feel right.

"That was Nicolas's home," Albert corrected. "How about having them stay at your place for a few days? They probably won't be staying long anyway. Then you can properly research Beautification Potions together."

Naturally, Albert would not allow anyone to be brought here.
