Kyle frowned. To be honest, he didn't want anyone else to teach him this kind of magic that involved memories and thoughts, not even Dumbledore.

And it wasn't just him; many wizards thought the same way, a point Chris should be well aware of.

But judging from Chris's expression, he seemed to trust the other person completely.

Kyle hesitated for a moment, not directly refusing, but deciding to go and see for himself first.

If things don't work out by then, I can always find another excuse to leave.

After discussing it, Chris originally planned to take Kyle to see the teacher after his birthday, but Kyle didn't think so.

Birthdays can be celebrated every year, so one more year won't make a difference. Besides, he was also very concerned about that so-called Occlumency teacher and just wanted to confirm the other party's identity as soon as possible.

If you feel it's not suitable, you should quickly think of another solution.

Since Kyle made that request, Chris naturally had no objections.

The two arrived at an open area outside the room. Chris stretched out his arm and said, "We can just Apparition there. Grab my arm."

Kyle took a deep breath and grabbed the arm that was reaching out to him.

"Alright, let's go!"

With a loud bang, the two disappeared from the spot at the same time.

When Kyle opened his eyes again, he was already in front of a red-roofed wooden house.

The cabin wasn't big, but it was very cozy. Every corner was kept very clean, and there was a low fence around it. An elderly couple was watching them with smiles on their faces.

"Grandpa Newt?"

"Grandma Tina?"

Kyle looked at the two people in front of him with some surprise.

He hadn't expected that the teachers Chris mentioned were Newt and Tina, but if it was them, then there was no problem.

"Little Kyle, weren't you supposed to be learning Occlumency? What are you waiting for? Come on in."

Tina went up and pinched Kyle's cheek, then led him into the room and brought him lots of cookies and homemade bread rolls.

Kyle sighed inwardly. Although he had just finished breakfast, he had eaten a lot, stuffing his mouth full.

Only after he could eat no more did Kyle rub his stomach and ask, "Grandma Tina, did you teach me this time?"

Of all the people in this room, Tina is probably the most skilled in Occlumency.

There was no way around it; her sister Queenie was a natural Legilimency. If Occlumency wasn't up to par, she wouldn't have any secrets from her sister.

Tina smiled and shook her head, saying, "I'm only responsible for teaching you the basic theory; what happens after that is none of my business."

"Not you?" Kyle paused, then turned to Newt with some confusion.

"It's not me either, child." Newt placed an open box on the ground and said with a smile, "Come with me, I'll show you to it."

Forehead...

Upon seeing the box, Kyle immediately had a bad feeling.

But Newt had already gone inside, so he had no choice but to follow.

The space inside the box was huge, incredibly huge. It was filled with trees, and even had several complete rivers and lakes, making it look like a real forest.

Newt led Kyle to a clearing by a lake.

Upon seeing the two, a Wampus Cat gracefully approached from a distance, seemingly having been waiting for them.

Its bright blue eyes stared at Newt and Kyle, and it lowered its head slightly.

"This is Naddali," Newt said with a gentle stroke of his fingers as he stroked the Wampus Cat's chin. "Remember, Kyle, every Wampus Cat is a born Legilimency."

"Of course... I remember."

Kyle forced a smile; his bad premonition grew stronger.

Just then, Chris walked over, patted Kyle on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "How's the tutor I found for you? Pretty good, right?"

"So, my teacher really is Naddali, the Wampus Cat?"

"That's right," Chris said. "To learn Occlumency as quickly as possible, you need a lot of pressure, because only in this way can you bring out the strong emotions deep within you. So we discussed it and unanimously decided that Naddali would be your teacher, and it agreed."

"Once you've learned the basic theory, we'll send you here. Then she'll attack you, and all you have to do is try not to get too badly beaten."

"If you can hold out for five minutes without any problems, it means your Occlumency has been successful."

"Wait... five minutes?" Kyle suddenly interrupted Chris, saying incredulously, "This is Wampus Cat! Even if I learned Occlumency, I'm definitely no match for it."

The six-legged Wampus Cat is one of the fastest Fantastic Beasts. To put it bluntly, if it wanted to beat up Kyle, it wouldn't need Legilimency at all; that would be unnecessary.

"Don't worry," Newt reassured her, "Naddali is smart; she knows what to do."

"But..."

Kyle wanted to say something more, but the Wampus Cat named Naddali came over and gently rubbed against his face.

"Meow..."

"Of course I believe you." Kyle quickly scratched his chin. "I just think this method is a bit unreliable..."

"On the contrary, I think it's the perfect thing to do," Chris said seriously. "If we were teaching you, we would also use Legilimency to put pressure on you, just like when facing Wampus Cat."

However, unlike Wampus Cat, which can practice with you anytime and anywhere, something we can't do.

Besides, she won't reveal any little secrets you have in your head.

Kyle thought about it and suddenly realized that Chris's words made a lot of sense.

Being Legilimency is not a pleasant experience, but if it's Wampus Cat, then it's certainly easier to accept.

"Okay, I agree." Kyle nodded.

The Wampus Cat purred contentedly, then raised its front leg and delivered a perfect front kick to Kyle's rear end.

"Whoosh!"

As expected, Kyle spun around and flew into the lake next to him.

Chris and Newt, who were standing nearby, were startled, but they quickly figured out what was going on.

"Looks like we don't need to teach him the basics," Newt said with a chuckle. "I'm going to check on Arnar; she recently gave birth to a litter of Niffler and is still very weak."

"And you, are you going back to the Ministry of Magic?"

Chris shook his head and said, "I'll go with you. I happen to be on vacation today."

Newt nodded and walked toward another area.

Chris followed behind, but after only a couple of steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and shouted, "Remember, don't use any spells!"

A hand reached out from the lake and waved at him.
