Chapter 8 Birthday

Today is Luke’s birthday on July 7, and his grandfather will also come from New York to celebrate his birthday.

A few days ago, his mother Helen called and asked about the magic school. Grandpa Zhang Hong directly booked a flight ticket for July 6th after the phone call. The flight was to London at noon today, so James had already driven to the airport.

And Luke was still in his bedroom summing up his practice for the past few days, and he found that although the flame curse he controlled was too low, his power was very limited.

“To complete the task, the reward should be able to bring a relatively large improvement.”

With the inspiration that Garfield brought, Luke thought of the serial comics of “Garfield”. These days he has contributed articles to newspapers, but he doesn’t know if he can complete the task.

There is also a second plan, Anna’s new bedtime story “Zoo Crazed”. Luke plans to publish books first and then animated films. After all, the cycle of animated films is too long.

Just thinking about it, I heard a loud voice, “Where is my baby grandson?”

Grandpa arrived, and Luke immediately walked downstairs.

“I heard your mother say you have necromancer ability?” Grandpa Zhang Hong asked directly.

Helen took Anna to the town, so Luke didn’t hide it, and directly gathered a fireball in his hand.

“No wand, silent cast! No, how do you control this magic?” Luke has necromancer ability, which surprised him, but now it seems to start him a bit.

In his impression, whether it is a wandless spell or a silent spell is a very high skill, how can it appear on a 7-year-old child, let alone the perfect control of magic in his hands.

“Grandpa, I don’t know if I have necromancer ability. My situation may be different.”

Luke saw that his grandpa was still in shock, and then asked, “Which school do you know? Is it Hogwarts or Ifamuni School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?”

“Definitely it is Hogwarts. Our Zhang family is also the necromancer family. It was just that I was a dumb cannon. Did you know that dumb cannon is someone who has magical powers in his body but can’t perform magic. So I left the family and went America. Back then, your mother didn’t have necromancer ability, so she didn’t tell her about this.”

“As for whether you have magical ability, I will write to help you ask to see if your name is in the book of access. Children born in the UK will be accepted as long as they have the ability.”

“Thank you grandpa, then can I go to Diagon Alley and see now”

The conversation with my grandfather was suddenly interrupted by James shouting, “Luke see who is here.”

Luke looked at the door, “Hermione!”

“Hello~ Luke.”

“Hermione, go in quickly, mom won’t go in, and I have to help your dad when I go back.”

“Okay, goodbye mom.” Hermione waved to Mrs. Granger and walked towards Luke.

“Won’t Mrs. Granger go in and sit for a while?” James said.

“Thank you, no, I have to go back to the clinic. Hermione and his father can’t be busy alone this weekend.”

“Be careful on the road. I will drive Hermione back at night, so you don’t have to go there.”



“Thank you very much, James, then I will leave first.”

After leaving Mrs. Granger, James went into the room and asked, “Luke, hasn’t your mother come back yet?”

“No, I should be back soon.”

Luke introduced Hermione to Grandpa, “Grandpa, this is Hermione Granger, she also has necromancer ability.”

“Hermione, this is my grandfather Zhang Hong, a music professor at the Manhattan Conservatory of Music. I just learned that grandpa is also from the necromancer family.”

“It’s nice to meet you, Mr. Zhang.” Hermione looked at Luke’s grandpa curiously.

“It’s another little necromancer. It’s nice to meet you too, Miss Granger, let’s go and play first. I’ll write to a friend at Hogwarts to help investigate the access book.”

“Go Hermione, take you to see Garfield.”

“What is a book of access?” Hermione asked.

“It is a large book made of parchment paper with a black dragon skin cover and stored at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The pen of acceptance will write the names of all British-born children with magical ability on it.” The book of admission and the pen of acceptance have been curious and specialized in his previous life.

“Hogwarts, is that the magic school you talked about last time? I really want to go and see it soon.” Hermione said eagerly.

“Hogwarts estimates that I can’t go now, but there is a place you might try.” A place appeared in Luke’s mind.

“Where is it?” Hermione asked.

“Diagon Alley, in the center of London, is equivalent to the commercial center of the necromancers. There are Gringotts Necromancer Bank, Ollivander Wand Shop, Fantastic Animals Store, Lihen Bookstore and many other shops.” Luke said After that, she found Hermione staring at herself with blinding eyes.

“I have a chance to take you there in the future.”

“Can I learn the last time you called Fireball?” Hermione asked

“That magic is called Flame Curse, and it has a certain degree of danger. I can teach you mental power training first, and then I will teach you Flame Curse after you have mastered it.” Hermione is still young, and practicing magic with weak control is likely to hurt. To yourself.

“Okay.” Although she was disappointed not to be able to learn magic right away, it didn’t shock Hermione’s enthusiasm.

“The mental training method is my own summary. When practicing, it is best to be in a place where no one is, and pay attention to safety.” Luke told Hermione the optimized mental training method.

The methods of plasticine control training, building block accuracy training and Lego multitasking training do not need to be modified. The speed training props, from needles and nails, are changed to relatively safe props such as coins.

It was estimated that Mom and Anna were coming back soon, so they said to Hermione, “Let’s go down first, my mother and they should be back. You can go home and practice again.”

“Okay, let’s go down first, I haven’t seen your mother and sister yet.”

Hermione hugged Garfield and followed Luke downstairs, and she saw that her mother Helen was already preparing food in the kitchen and was going to have a barbecue in the yard tonight.



“Mom, this is Hermione Granger, Anna is called sister.” Luke introduced.

“Hermione, this is my mother Helen, and that little one is my sister Anna.”

“I’m not a young man,” Anna said unconvincingly, and then ran to Hermione to look around her, “Hello.”

“Aunt Helen, hello Anna, it’s nice to meet you.” Hermione also greeted Roar.

“Hello, Hermione, you’re welcome, it’s the same as at my own house.” As he said, he nodded at Luke.

Luke is a little unsure.

As the night fell, James had already started a barbecue in the yard. Helen also took the prepared squid, cut beef, and lamb outside.

A long patchwork table, covered with red cloth underneath, and delicate silver plates filled with food.

Soon the smell of barbecue wafted out, and Garfield leaned in too.

“Happy birthday, Luke.” Hermione walked to Luke and handed him a beautifully wrapped gift.

“Thank you.” Luke was very happy to receive Hermione’s gift.

“When is your birthday Hermione, how can your family celebrate it for you?” Mom Helen asked.

“I have my birthday on September 19, and I will prepare a cake for my birthday and make a lot of delicious food.”

“You will try the roasted meat made by Luke’s father. He can’t cook. The roasted meat still tastes good.” Helen said with a smile to Hermione.

“My dear, I’m so sad that you say that. Come to Hermione, and try the secret chicken wings that have just been baked, Dad, too.”

“Dad, it wasn’t me who dismantled the stage. It seems that I matched our secret sauce.” Luke said untimely.

“I’ll try the chicken wings grilled with my grandson’s seasoning.” Grandpa smiled and went to pick up a few.

“Ahem, yes yes yes, you are great, does your teacher teach you cooking skills, and I will also learn if I have the opportunity.” James was speechless.

“Um~ it’s really delicious, Luke, do you know how to cook.” Hermione was curious.

“It’s okay to make some snacks for Anna now, it’s not very convenient to cook.” He said and gestured his height.

“I love Luke’s egg custard, rock sugar pear soup, crystal shrimp porridge, and steamed ham tofu…” Anna Xiaoyou ran to Luke with her half-eaten chicken wings in her hand, “Luke, Please eat chicken wings, you can make me more next time.”

Everyone laughed as they watched this scene.

After dinner, James drove Hermione home, and Luke also drove Hermione in the car.

“Okay, goodbye Luke.”

“goodbye.”
