To complete both the curing of "Lycanthropy Disease" and the making of the "Moonstone Totem," according to Vizet's original plan, it would have taken at least two or three days.
The reason he had been able to return early was, first and foremost, naturally thanks to the Christmas gift Luna had given him.
Inspired by that Christmas gift, he had grasped the unique effects contained within thunder and lightning, then combined them with the principles of the "Goblin Magic Contract" he had obtained in New York, thereby shortening the Ritual Magic process by a large margin.
Even so, he had still been gone for a full day, which meant that he and Luna had not seen each other for an entire day.
Ever since Luna had enrolled at Hogwarts, situations like this had rarely happened between them.
It was now morning in Ottery St Catchpole. Perhaps the rain and snow from the previous days had finally spent themselves, because the weather had at last improved today.
All along the way home, warm sunlight shone on him.
From what Vizet knew of Luna, she should be in the Small Garden at this hour. That was also why he had not appeared directly at home.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt that every step he took at this moment was more eager than usual. He wanted to see Luna, and he had so much he wanted to share with her.
The Baby Thunderbird felt it even more clearly. As Vizet quickened his pace, his shoulder became bumpier too.
It simply flapped its wings and flew up again, but it still remembered what Vizet had said, so it flapped along slowly, staying beside him.
In the Small Garden, Luna, as usual, carefully tended to all kinds of Magical Plants one by one.
