Chapter 1656 A war without a winner (one hundred and six)
It would be nice to have an office of his own. Some private matters do require a private space. Especially after the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor of the castle was completely exposed, he needed such an office even more.
As for the location and layout of the office, which are not very good, Albert doesn't care at all. After all, it is other professors who choose the remaining offices. It is normal to encounter this kind of situation, and his next role as Defense Against Dark Arts professor will be
I don't think I will use this office very often in my career.
After greeting Professor McGonagall, Albert said goodbye and left Hogwarts Castle. It was not that he was slow and did not notice Professor McGonagall's kindness and invitation, but that he really did not intend to be here and could only say it in his heart.
Sorry.
Although Albert doesn't mind teaching others knowledge, he really has no interest in becoming a professor at Hogwarts. He needs to engage in education as a whole, forget it. Albert never feels that he has that kind of patience and perseverance. He is better than anyone else.
It was clear that I came to Hogwarts just to go through the motions.
Before going home, Albert went to Avalon again to deliver the latest batch of butterbeer ordered in Diagon Alley.
In such a hot weather, icy cold drinks have always been an indispensable tool to relieve the heat, and Albert will never treat his own people badly. Everyone worked hard for the construction of Avalon, and he naturally didn't be stingy with the Galleons.
.
If you want to take the lead, don't be stingy.
Albert never felt that he could have the charm of Dumbledore, and things like Order of the Phoenix were more like products of the times, which could not be copied and did not want to be copied.
…
"Oh, have they gone back?"
After returning from Avalon, when Albert didn't see the other three girls in the living room, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked sideways at Isobel, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading a book.
"What? I hugged him reluctantly." Isobel looked at Albert with a half-smile.
"I was just a little surprised. I thought they would tell me before leaving the UK." Albert didn't pay attention to his wife's teasing at all.
To be honest, the departure of the three Catherines made him relieved. Sometimes too many lovers can be a troublesome thing.
"They said saying goodbye is a sentimental thing, so they didn't say goodbye to you."
During the evening meal, Katrina mentioned this incident casually, and Albert could see that the girl was in a good mood.
She finally no longer has to share her man with a group of women
As for her sister Isobel, Katrina didn't care at all. It shouldn't be said that it would be more exciting.
"That's good, there won't be such trouble in the future!"
Albert looked sideways at Alice sitting in the baby chair, and then at the fat cat who was cooking next to him, and murmured softly, "It's not a good idea to stay there all the time. Alice always needs someone to take care of her.
You can't keep bothering Tom."
Raising children is like raising pets, they need companionship.
Moreover, the three Catherines also have their own things to be busy with, so it is incredible to be able to stay in the UK for such a long time.
"By the way, Louise is probably pregnant!" Isobel suddenly reminded.
"Yeah." Albert seemed to have expected it.
"Your reaction is really cold. Louise will definitely be very sad if she knows about it." Katrina's tone revealed a trace of envy. She didn't know whether she was envious of Louise being pregnant or envious that she could be pregnant.
Face this matter so calmly.
??????55.??????
"However, it seems that Louise did not intend to tell you the news of the child from the beginning, and she did not even intend to tell you the name." Isobel took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth, looked up at Albert, who was still calm, and spoke.
He asked, "Don't you want to do some divination?"
"Forget it!" Albert shook his head slightly and looked at the MacDoug sisters, "I respect Louise's decision, and we are both still young."
"They will most likely come back to you next summer!" Isobel kissed Albert's cheek and comforted, "You are a sweet cake to them. How can they give up so easily after tasting it?"
"Next year? We may travel around the world at this time next year." Albert reminded that this was his original plan, and there will also be fierce conflicts in the UK next year, so staying away from this place of right and wrong is also a good choice.
.
"Will the problems in the British wizarding world be solved next year?"
Isobel was surprised that Albert actually planned to travel around the world at that time. No matter how you looked at it, it seemed like he had done it intentionally.
"Who knows?"
Albert bent down and picked up his daughter, held it high and said: "After Voldemort's death, the British wizarding world will no longer need me, not to mention I am not Dumbledore, and even Dumbledore will not be so arrogant.
"
I don’t know whether it was because he returned to his home or for other reasons, but it took only a few days for Albert to regain his energy.
Moisturized by love, Katrina's cheeks are also rosy and radiant, which makes the beauty potion more and more popular among girls who come to Diagon Alley for shopping.
The only weird thing is that the senior students actually need to pre-order their Defense Against the Dark Arts books at Flourish and Blotts because their textbooks are still being printed and they need to wait until they return to school to get the books.
However, there are always a few exceptions.
"It feels quite difficult. I guess not many people can successfully master all the knowledge in the book. This course will probably become the most valuable subject in Hogwarts in the future." Hermione finished reading the "Defense Against the Dark Arts" given by Albert.
Guide", gave such an exaggerated evaluation.
"It's normal. It's an advanced improvement class after all."
"It's not an exaggeration to say it's an advanced class." Hermione felt that Albert overestimated the level of other people's defense against the dark arts.
"Is it okay with Kingsley?"
"No problem, this book was published with Kingsley's approval first." Albert smiled and shrugged: "In fact, high standards can allow everyone to learn more useful knowledge and improve defense against black magic.
After the threshold is reached, the selection of Aurors will become much easier."
"As long as you're happy."
"By the way, this is for you."
Albert pushed the "Defense Against the Dark Arts Guide" in front of Hermione again.
"Is it really okay?"
"I just came here today to take a look at the samples." Albert finished wiping out his portion of ice cream, took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth and said, "It looks pretty good, but it looks a bit shabby. It's probably a sequelae of lowering the price.
.”
"Aren't you going to stay and collect it?"
"A hardcover version will be released in the future, and then it will be nice to get a set for collection."
After saying goodbye to Hermione, Albert bought two more ice creams from his old friend Florin, and planned to drop by to visit Katrina who was working in the witch beauty shop.
