Reflections, Summaries, and 'Lizard'

Lost in thought, Cypher didn't notice Luna's complicated gaze.

A hint of disappointment on her face, Luna walked to the side, preparing to brew the herbs she had just purchased into potions.

By the time Cypher came back to his senses, Luna was already quietly brewing potions to one side.

Better not disturb her. I should summarize this experience first.

Cypher walked to the office area and sat down, taking out his quill and parchment.

The tip of the pen lightly touched the paper, and he began to write.

First, there was Austin Charles, who claimed to be from the Shadow Empire.

The name might be fake, but the organization name should be real.

There's no reason to make up an organization just to deceive me, right?

Alright, let's assume they're called the Shadow Organization.

Cypher drew a large circle around the Shadow Organization, with a big question mark next to it.

Austin Charles also said that they had a cooperative relationship with Grindelwald.

A like-minded wizard organization in Germany? Or the Ministry of Magic in Italy?

The British Ministry of Magic might have a mole. During the war, it actually allowed Dark Wizards to illegally enter the country and even attack near Hogwarts.

Wait... could the mole be at Hogwarts?!

Hiss—

Cypher suppressed this thought in his heart. He made up his mind that the next time he saw Dumbledore, he would report this speculation first.

Other international forces.

The attitude of the British Ministry of Magic is unclear, but Grindelwald once severely humiliated it. The Minister was even killed by him, so they should join the camp against the Saints, right?!

As for other forces... I haven't been in contact with them, so I don't know...

After recording all this, I haven't summarized anything!

Cypher frowned.

According to his memories from his previous life, this year, the Austrian magic world should be ruled by Grindelwald. However, the International Confederation of Wizards didn't impose sanctions on them, which is very strange. Were they threatened? Or did they want to sacrifice some benefits to avoid disaster?

Britain didn't participate in the war immediately, but later, the air force bombarded them wildly.

In other words, the British Ministry of Magic will be severely dealt with by Grindelwald before dragging its remaining troops and defeated generals to the battlefield with a stiff upper lip...

Then, could these illegally entering Dark Wizards become an excuse to start a war?

Really, a good hand... No, that's not right. The last wizarding war caused wizards to lose a lot of vitality. Now, wizards are afraid of war and have become ostriches in the face of invasion...

Cypher sighed. In chaotic times, without strong personal strength, one spends every day in fear...

Cypher sat at his desk, thinking for a long, long time, and wrote down many fragmented ideas.

Luna had already finished processing the potions.

She let the potions simmer in a large pot in the distance, bubbling and gurgling.

She quietly came to Cypher's side and sat down obediently.

Suddenly, Cypher gave the parchment in his hand to Luna.

"Take a look and see if you have any additions or ideas."

Luna took it and saw that it was Cypher's summary and prediction of the changes in the European situation in recent years.

Luna carefully read it and filled in the information she had obtained through her smuggling network.

It was nothing more than changing Cypher's question marks into check marks.

"Sorry, I rarely exchange information from them..."

Luna handed the parchment back and said softly.

"It's okay! If it weren't for this incident, I wouldn't care about these things. Personal strength is the most important thing. We don't have the qualifications to participate yet."

Cypher comforted her. Suddenly, he changed the subject.

"Luna, how did you meet Iris?"

Luna was stunned. She hesitated for a moment, not understanding why Cypher suddenly asked this.

But after thinking about it, there didn't seem to be any unspeakable secrets.

"My parents also sacrificed in a battle with Grindelwald's subordinates a few years ago. My grandfather works in the Order of Merlin. He is an old friend of Dumbledore and the Deputy Headmistress. Coincidentally, Iris often stays alone in the castle, so they sent me to accompany her."

Am I overthinking it? But, these wizard casualties... Thinking in his heart, Cypher said, "Sorry, Luna, I reminded you of sad things."

"It's okay. After meeting Iris, my life is still very happy!"

Luna gave Cypher a sweet smile.

"That Norman Dragon Blood Grass..."

"We'll wait until the Christmas holidays and brew it together at my place!"

"Speaking of which, your Mandrake leaves..."

Silence... Luna said with a sob in her voice, "It seems Doctor Bohan took them. Some potions have side effects with Mandrake..."

"It's okay, we won't need it for a while."

The three of them were learning to become Animagus mainly to better utilize the effects of the Potion of Magical Enhancement.

Right now, the Potion of Magical Enhancement is still just a pile of ingredients, so Cypher is naturally not in a hurry.

The only pity is that the past half-month of effort has been wasted again.

"Last time, the weather caused the failure," Cypher thought for a moment and continued, "I remember there's a very obscure weather charm, I wonder if it will work?"

Luna frowned and tried hard to think, racking her memory for a long time before saying.

"I'm afraid not, but there are reliable records that thunderstorms caused by Thunderbird and other magical creatures can."

"Is that so? That might involve natural forces."

Cypher said thoughtfully in a low voice.

"Natural forces?"

Speaking of this, Luna scratched her hair fiercely, messing up her smooth long hair into a tangled mess.

She looked like she hadn't solved a complex and difficult math problem for a long time.

"Cypher, this natural force, you say it's the foundation for casting pixie magic. But Iris and I can't get the hang of it no matter what. I suddenly feel so useless..."

Luna's eyes suddenly dimmed, and Cypher quickly stepped forward to comfort her, smoothing her hair.

"Don't worry, when my Occlumency becomes more proficient, and you truly learn the Patronus Charm, and then learn Legilimency, you may also be able to learn these magics."

Luna expressed disbelief, but seeing Cypher's concerned face, she suddenly felt that whether she could or not was no longer important.

Seeing Luna's mood improve, Cypher breathed a sigh of relief. Coming from another world, he always felt out of place with the people of this world.

Madam Mary, she was like a light shining in front, guiding him to live well in this world.

And Luna and Iris, they were like candles held in his hands, even in the darkness, there was still a glimmer of light in his heart.

He must protect this glimmer of light.

Huh? Protect...

Cypher seemed to realize something.

Under Luna's curious gaze.

Cypher took out his wand.

His mind no longer searched for happy memories as described in books.

Instead, he firmly prayed in his mind that he must protect these two girls no matter what.

With a flash of inspiration, Cypher softly called out, "Expecto Patronum!"

Different from the previous faint light or small ball of light.

This time, a separate being emerged from the tip of Cypher's wand, not connected to the wand in a continuous thread.

Haha—

Cypher was excited, and so was Luna.

But when the two of them took a closer look, they both turned into expressions of laughter and tears.

"A lizard?! A lizard??!!"
