Since they had come all the way to Switzerland, William and Hermione did not leave immediately, but planned to spend a cool summer there.

At the foot of the Alps, the temperature is only in the teens, perfect for retirement and a carefree, leisurely "retirement" life.

Seeing that the two weren't leaving... Minister Lancel had an opinion, but after holding it in for a long time, what came out was:

Eat well, drink well, and have fun!

Just tell me what you need.

You're welcome!

Seeing how honest Minister Lancel was... if William were to be polite, he would be rude and practically be offering himself up to someone who was being overly friendly!

William is known for being incredibly outgoing and friendly!

So, a house... well, you'd better get one first, right?

We can't keep living on the magic ship or in the Giant's cave, can we?

Minister Lancel immediately arranged for the best estate, the kind with its own ski slope and small hot springs.

He was hoping to please the two of them so he could leave happily.

But what he didn't know was that his quick wit... made William not want to leave.

Putting everything else aside, that private ski resort... is completely different from the flashy, cheap ones in China.

Not only are there no hordes of tourists, but you also won't get ripped off.

No tour guide will tell you, "He has a bad temper; if you don't buy souvenirs, he'll make you suffer."

Since there's a private ski resort, William will definitely want to try it out.

During the time loop, he had specifically learned to ski; he was a professional!

Based on experience, complete beginners who have never skied before should definitely know what equipment they need:

Tibial and fibular plates (German-made) 1000-3000 each

Locking steel plate (British origin) 2000-4000 yuan/piece

Artificial knee joint (Japanese production) 10,000-60,000 yuan/piece

The surgery costs between 10,000 and 100,000 yuan...

What, it's serious? Then we might need a full-service escort, like an eighteen-mile farewell party.

Yes, skiing is a dangerous sport.

If you're not careful, you might end up being transported from the ski resort to the hospital, or even the crematorium.

Once you're mentally prepared, the first thing you need to learn is how to brake.

This type of braking does not refer to face braking, chest braking, hip braking, or foot braking.

If this happens, the equipment I just mentioned will come in handy.

William once used the time loop, at the cost of the friction between the front lines to start a fire, to forcefully stop the speed.

Hermione and Missandei had never skied before, so William naturally acted as their ski instructor, providing hands-on guidance.

He's always a professional when it comes to coaching skills!

Ygritte skier; she doesn't need to be taught.

She grew up in the Alps, where she could simply cut down two pieces of wood and use them as sleds to slide all the way from the mountaintop to the foot of the mountain.

However, her way of playing was too wild, and even William couldn't handle it, so he could only say that he couldn't take it anymore.

However, Hagrid and Maxime, who are also Half-blood Giant, are not so good at it.

Hagrid was able to brake forcefully by using the front line; Madame Maxime, after skiing only 200 meters, had to use his chest brake three or four times, barely managing to avoid an accident by using the undulations to cushion the impact.

So she only played it once, and never played it again.

Therefore, this also serves as a reminder to girls with silicone implants: this braking method is too expensive... do not attempt it!

Besides skiing, William also had Giant pull sleds, which was extremely exciting, like a roller coaster ride.

It's a pity that **Tea, **Sa, Pineapple aren't here, otherwise these three cats could be trained as sled cats.

It can also help them lose weight.

Besides entertainment, William also had to deal with the Giant problem.

After the tribe of the Golgomath was wiped out, things became much easier... The Giant of the Alps all knew that a powerful wizard had arrived.

William directly issued the guidelines:

Establish a united front against the enemy and unite the majority of the Giant.

This process of "unity" was carried out by Fridwulfa.

That small group of Giant with ulterior motives who attempted to support the Dark Lord are typical evil forces and must be resolutely struck down and eliminated.

Can the tribe of Fridwulfa complete this task?

Of course you can!

The tribe of the Golgomath was not completely wiped out; some of the Giant who escaped were incorporated into her ranks.

She has risen to become one of the tribes with the largest number of Giant, making it easy for her to fight against the smaller tribes.

As for whether the process will be too bloody?

Giant are a race that fears power but not morality; only swift and decisive action will suffice.

Isn't that exactly what Fridwulfa is like?

The night before, he was questioning why he was helping them instead of Voldemort... The next day, he turned to William and talked about cooperation.

Their stance changed extremely quickly.

Besides, it's better than handing the Giant over to Voldemort.

After dealing with the Giant for a few days, William stopped following up and instead left everything to Hagrid and Madame Maxime.

As for him... he's become obsessed with hot springs, an activity suitable for all ages.

There is a large hot spring within this estate.

However, it was not formed naturally, but rather it was a magical hot spring created by groundwater passing through a magical water eye.

In terms of effectiveness, it is almost indistinguishable from natural hot springs.

At this moment, William dived to the bottom of the pool to secretly learn and study the magic water eye.

Once he has a clear understanding of the research, he will be able to create a hot spring in his own backyard.

When you have nothing to do, you can take Hermione to soak in the water.

The hot springs here are not very good; they're not even mixed-gender baths... the facilities are outdated!

Why do we have mixed-gender bathing?

There's a reason for that, of course.

During the hot spring bath, the two of them cleansed each other's bones and marrow, eliminating toxins from their bodies, which is very beneficial to their health.

What? You're single?

That hot spring is no fun; you can just go to a public bathhouse and wash up casually. An old man there might even scrub your back for you.

William studied it for a while, then emerged from the water, half of his body exposed to the air. He waved his wand, and a quill pen sketched on the parchment.

Just then, footsteps sounded at the door, someone pushed the door open and quickly locked it again, the movements practiced and efficient.

William didn't turn his head. In this manor, besides the House-elf, there were only him, Hermione, and Missandei.

Oh, and there's Ygritte comes to visit often.

Maxime and Hagrid are both away recently; one is negotiating with other Giant Tribe, and the other is visiting his brother.

Even if Hagrid were there, William wouldn't go to the hot springs with him.

After trying it once... the scene was... indescribable.

William was like Thor, seeing the Green Giant taking a bath, even brazenly walking out of the hot spring... Ah, the image is practically etched into his DNA!

At that time, William had only one thought:

Eye!

My eyes!

I'm going blind!

Fortunately, William was able to perform Occlumency; otherwise, it would have been a lifelong trauma.

He's just waiting for someone to Legilimency to read his memories.

William then presented this image.

Wizards who witnessed this will likely remember this lesson for the rest of their lives and never dare to casually use Legilimency again.

Come on, let's hurt each other!

Hmm, Professor Snape or Voldemort... that's not bad either, they both like Legilimency.

As William was thinking this, the person who made the footsteps sat down at the table by the hot spring.

The only person who would come to see him while he was soaking in the hot springs... is Hermione.

It was Hermione, of course. She was wrapped in a bathrobe, wearing a shower cap, and her hair was still damp and stuck to her flushed cheeks. She had obviously just come out of the women's hot spring.

Hermione sat on the rock platform, her smooth, white legs pressed together in the water to prevent any accidental exposure.

William turned his head and laughed, "Come on down, the water's not hot!"

Hermione blushed, spat, and said softly, "Anne just contacted me."

William paused, then asked, "What happened?"

"She said... she found the locket and wants us to go back," Hermione said with a smile.

William smiled as well.

Great, we finally found it!

This means that yet another Horcrux has been captured!

Hermione lifted her leg slightly, splashing water. "Do we need to go back right away?"

William thought for a moment and said, "No rush. Once the situation here stabilizes, we can go back, which will be soon."

"I see." Hermione nodded. "Then I'll go back next door and continue soaking in the hot springs. Missandei and Ygritte are still waiting for me."

Hermione chuckled mischievously, but showed no intention of staying. She stretched and prepared to get up.

But since she was already here, how could William possibly let her leave?

He raised his right hand, and water splashed onto the rocky shore.

Hermione was already barefoot, and with William's deliberate act, she slipped and fell into the water with a splash.

She didn't take off her bathrobe, but squatted half-down in the spacious hot spring pool. Her clothes were soaked, so it didn't really matter whether she was wearing them or not; in fact, the subtle, alluring effect only made it more enchanting.

Hermione suddenly pulled out a dagger from somewhere.

William was startled. Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Missandei's dagger.

That night, he and Hermione sneaked back to the Austrian Ministry of Magic.

In the room, Missandei pulled the dagger, decorated with the Habsburg double-headed eagle motif, from under her pillow.

Hermione toyed with a dagger in her hand, smiling as she said, "Missandei gave this to me, telling me to be wary of someone... Swish swish swish!"

As she spoke, she gestured vigorously twice.

William felt a chill run down his spine, his head throbbed, and he cursed inwardly, "That wretched girl Missandei... what a disaster!"

Hermione suddenly thrust the dagger forward, startling William, who thought she was about to kill her husband in a show of loyalty. Unexpectedly, the girl said with a hint of annoyance:

"I tied my bathrobe too tight!"

William paused for a moment, then took the dagger and with a flick of his wrist, the ribbon on his bathrobe snapped in two.

Her robes parted, her clothes fell away, and Hermione walked slowly towards them, her face flushed like a pink peach, her eyes unfocused, and her voice trembling:

"You can wash it for me."
