"This is a battle between noble Magi! Miss Know-it-all."
Ron said disdainfully when he heard Hermione's muttering.
It looked as if he was telling people not to talk nonsense if they didn't know.
"But, I don't know many things now.”
Harry, who had agreed to the duel, regretted it only after he had calmed down.
It had only been two or three days, Charms was starting tomorrow afternoon, and he knew only a handful of Charms, which Ron had even taught him.
Hearing this, Ron was also stunned on the spot.
Draco Malfoy, as a noble pure-blooded wizard family, must know more than the two of them. If he agreed, wouldn't he be asking for trouble for Harry?
"If you have the time to think about such things, you might as well read two books.”
"For example, this Arajo Hole.”
Lorne placed another copy of The Complete Collection of Commonly Used Charms in front of Harry.
As Malfoy's true friend, he knew that the golden retriever was up to no good.
Just as Hermione had said, these two people were also brainless.
Malfoy was not going to risk detention for a duel in the middle of the night.
If his guess was correct, the watchdogs were probably ready tonight.
"Do you want to go to the lakeside for a walk?" Lorne put away the book, stretched, and said to Hermione,"I heard that the scenery there is very good."”
"Are you two going on a date?”
Harry's eyes lit up as he asked curiously.
As soon as he said that, Hermione, who had yet to react, suddenly reacted. Then, a blush appeared on both sides of her cheeks.
"D-date or something,"
Lorne did not deny it.
————
The afternoon sun was not too strong, and the wind was very gentle.
After Lorne and Selina came out of the library, they walked along the green lake.
"Is the Slytherin common room under this lake?”
asked Hermione curiously.
Gryffindor's lounge was built on the eighth floor, and among the four lounges, Slytherin's was the strangest and most curious.
"Of course. Every night when I sleep, I can see all kinds of fish, and occasionally a big octopus.”
In a sense, Slytherin was a pure high-end aquarium.
There were quite a number of young Magi by the lake. Most of them were a group of men or women chatting.
Occasionally, he could see a few pairs of senior wizards holding hands.
Hermione looked down at her hands clutching her notebook and shook her head.
This kind of thinking was unacceptable!
"Miss Know-it-all, what are you thinking about?”
Lorne looked at the dense forest in the distance as he turned around and teased Hermione.
"The nickname know-it-all really suits you.”
Hermione, who had always been in the learning phase, had a much higher knowledge reserve in all aspects than other young wizards.
And knowledge brought pride.
Perhaps that was why Hermione did not have many friends in Gryffindor.
Hermione would have been even more popular in Ravenclaw.
After all, it was a school that pursued knowledge.
"You're laughing at me too!"
Miss Hermione stopped in her tracks and narrowed her brown eyes at Lorne.
"Doesn't the know-it-all suit you?”
Lorne also stopped in his tracks. He looked at the green lawn and sat down without complaining about the dirt.
"After all, it means that you know everything.”
"That's what they used to mock me.”
Seeing Lorne sit down, Hermione hesitated for a moment and sat down as well.
"Looks like you haven't made any friends in Gryffindor.”
Lorne took out two lollipops from his pocket and handed one to Hermione.”
"Oh, except my only friend in Slytherin, Malfoy.”
After all, Malfoy was willing to be his experiment subject, so Lorne naturally recognized him as a friend.
However, there were many kinds of friends.
Like him and his owl, and him and Malfoy.
"Draco Malfoy?"
Hermione took the candy and thought of the little blond wizard who had provoked Harry in the library.
"He looks very annoying."
She frowned.
"Maybe, but I think he's not bad.”
After all, she had been hit by his illusion last night.
The two of them walked and stopped, and before they knew it, they had already arrived at a dense forest.
"This is the Forbidden Forest, Headmaster Dumbledore said we're not allowed in here.”
Hermione's memory was so good that she had memorized almost every word Dumbledore had said at the beginning of the term.
At this point, there were not many people around, only Hermione and Lorne.
After staring at the depths of the forest for a while with his light blue eyes, he was about to turn around and go back when he suddenly heard a muffled shout.
"Hey, what are you two little wizards doing here?？”
Hearing this familiar voice, Lorne and Hermione turned around at the same time. What they saw was Hagrid, who had led them into the academy before school started.
"I thought Dumbledore said this was off limits!”
Hagrid, the keeper of the forest, did not want to see a young wizard hurt inside.
There were too many dangerous things in this forest, such as wild centaurs and eight-eyed spiders.
These things were not something that these young Magi could come into contact with. Even if the professor went in, he might not be able to come out.
"Getting close to the forest without permission will result in demerit points and detention!”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Hagrid, we got lost on our date.”
Lorne pulled Hermione, who was a little flustered, and said politely to Hagrid.
Hermione, who was originally a little flustered when she heard that Lorne was going to deduct points, felt her small hand suddenly being pulled up by Lorne.
"A date?" Hagrid's eyes widened. He had an impression of the two young wizards in front of him, because he was the one who had led the newcomers to school a few days ago.
I didn't expect these two to get together so quickly. It's only been a few days since they enrolled, my Merlin!
Recalling that he did not even have a female friend at Hogwarts, Hagrid suddenly felt that Lorne's face was in the way.
"Go away, go away, you're not allowed to come here again, or I'll tell Headmaster Dumbledore!”said Hagrid fiercely.
Hagrid sighed enviously as he watched them leave hand in hand.
Comparisons were infuriating.
