After discussing the money issue, Prof.McGonagall took kaizo to a nearby alley. Welsh Orphanage is located in a remote place. There was not a single human figure to be seen near this alley.
Kaizo suddenly felt something bad. Then he heard Prof.McGonagall say:" Kaizo in order to save time, we need to use magic to get to the destination. It may not be comfortable, so please bear with it."
"Okay ..ok."
Kaizo already knew what he was about to experience. "Then, please take my hand... Apparate!"
Kaizo suddenly felt uncomfortable all over his body, as if his whole body was stuffed into the drum of a washing machine, and then someone chose to dryspin.
A second feels like a century. When kaizo felt his feet touch the ground again, his legs almost gave out and he fell.
His stomach was churning and he almost vomited out the poor quality bread for breakfast.
Prof.McGonagall patted kaizo on the back and handed him a chocolate frog.
"Sorry, Mr. Kaizo, how are you feeling?"
"There are a lot of new students that need to be received these days, so I have to use this way of traveling. Eat something, that way you will be more comfortable."
"No... it's okay, Prof.McGonagall, I'm okay."
After putting the cold chocolate frog in his mouth, feeling the jumping frog legs and the cold sweetness in his mouth, it immediately killed all the inferior deserts he had eaten in the past eleven years.
Sure enough, even if it's food and drink, you have to go to Hogwarts.
[You personally experienced Apparition, and you felt painful about this way of traveling, so you understood the spell(Dimensional Anchor)]
[Dimensional/Space Anchor]: This spell can temporarily confine space to prevent others from using space movement spells.
Why is it that what I comprehend is not the Apparition, but the Dimensional Anchor! Kaizo suddenly felt apang of regret. If his reaction had been enjoyment instead of nausea, maybe he would have able to master this incredible movement skill now?
But then again, the the spell dimensional anchor which imprisons all spatial movement is atleast more powerful than the anti-apparition ward which only targets wizard's apparition.
Kaizo raised his head and saw a very small facade in front of him, about one third the size of the orphanage's door. Those who didn't know any better thought it was the door of a public toilet.
On either side of the facade are a bookstore and a record store.
Compared with the colourful neon lights of it's neighbors, the sign here is very retro- it's just a big wooden sign with no words on it, but a picture of a leaking cauldron, which kaizo thought he could get into.
It's an eccentric and eye catching place, but no one passing by takes a glance at it.
"So, this is our destination, the leaky cauldon on Charring Cross Street." Prof.McGonagall explained, "This place has been cast with a Muggle repelling charm, so muggles basically ignore it."
She opened the door immediately and walked in with kaizo in the bar.
The bar was a little dark inside, and the lighting was actually an oil lamp.
As a famous place, this place is really too dirty and messy. It is filled with long,square, or round wooden tables, and some wizards ate drinking and chatting. They all look weird, and they are very suitable for the bar.
When they saw who was coming in, many people took the initiative to say hello to Prof.McGonagall.
The bald boss behind the bar, Tom Abott, put down his glass and waved to the two of them:"Oh, Prof.McGonagall, I haven't seen you for a ling time. Are you here to pick up this year's new students?
Prof.McGonagall nodded""Yes, Tom, a little wizard of muggle birth, I am taking him to buy things."
"Welcome, little guy." The boss nodded to kaizo again with a very friendly expression.
" Look, what a fi e young man. By the way, my granddaughter is also a freshman this year. You will become classmates in the future."
Kaizo felt that this was his passive ability [Charming Humans] taking effect.
"Hello, Mr. Tom, I am Kaizo Grindel. It is an honour to be your granddaughter's classmate."
After exchanging a few words, Prof.McGonagall led kaizo out of the back door of the leaky cauldron.
There seemed to be a dead end in front of him, and a trash can was placed against the wall.
Prof.McGonagall came to the wall.
"Remember how to open it." Prof.McGonagall said and demonstrated:"Start from the trash can, count three pieces upward, then count two pieces horizontally, and tap it with your wand."
The next moment, the seemingly thick brick wall began to change. A cobbled street with twists and turns appeared with no end in sight.
Kaizo followed Prof.McGonagall inside. On both sides of street are shops selling pots, animals, herbs, books, and broomsticks.
Wizards dressed in different clothing walked in and out of the shops, and owls flew around in the sky...
This is Diagon alley, the starting point of the magical world!
Kaizo was dumbfounded by the dazzling arraw of things he saw. It was much more exciting than the movie.
Prof.McGonagall smiled slightly:"Okay kaizo, there will be a lot of time for sightseeing. Now, let's go to Gringotts first. You have a lot of things to buy..."
Prof.McGonagall stepped and pulled kaizo forward.
After walking for five or six minutes, the two came to a fork in the road, and Prof.McGonagall finally stopped.
Opposite the fork in the road is a white three story building, Gringotts.
Among the wooden ordinary buildings, this tall stone buildings stand out from the crowd and looks very majestic from a distance.Of course, it's only limited to looking at it from a distance.
After walking in, kaizo discovered that the white marble columns outside Gringotts were actually crooked!
It's okay to be crooked, but worst part is that each stone pillar is crooked in its own way. Not to mention that they cannot be connected into a line, they are not even in the same direction!
For kaizo, a man of science and engineering, with mild obsessive compulsive disorder, this is really sad. He secretly vowed that if he had a chance in the future, he would reinstall it.
On both sides of the bronze gate, there were goblin guards wearing red uniforms with gold trims.
Although they were short in stature, they looked arrogant and looked at him in a way that made him a little unhappy.
Ignoring these annoying guys, the two walked inside and saw a white and silver door with a row of eye catching large words engraved on it.
"Enter, stranger, but take head
Of what awaits the sin of greed,
For those who take, but do not earn,
Must pay most dearly in their own turn."
"So if you seek beneath our floors
A treasure that was never yours,
Thief, you have been warned, beware
Of finding more than treasure there."
"How do feel when you see this?" Prof.McGonagall asked kaizo at that time.
Kaizo did not show awe and say any standard comments like ordinary little wizards, but snorted coldly:"I only saw their arrogant nature and fearful looks."
Prof.McGonagall was stunned when she heard this, It took a long time before she nodded:"You... are right "
She suddenly discovered that the child around her was not only more matured than she imagined, but also smarter than she had thought.
She knew very well, that goblins are proficient in smelting, but their nature is very greedy and special. They believe that anything they make is their own, and the fees paid to them are rent.
As long as the owner dies, they have the right to take back their creation.
This includes the famous Gryffindors Sword.
For this reason, goblins and wizards had many conflicts and even started several wars.
But they all undoubtedly ended in the defeat of the goblins.
Don't look at the fact that goblins control the only bank in the wizarding world and are in an equal and cooperative relationship with wizards.
Facing the wizards, they are all afraid. They are unwilling to give up their greedy and proud nature and want to keep up their reputation.
But the shadow of defeat forced them to obey the wizard's rules. This sentence is a perfect evaluation.
On the high counters on both sides of the hall, Prof.McGonagall quicky took out Kaizo's loan.
In order to show their condescension, the goblins designed the counter to be higher than expected, even higher than kaizo himself.
As a result, the chairs behind the counter are also very high. Kaizo would probably have to use a small ladder to get up and down.
"Okay, kaizo you got your loan." Prof.McGonagall led kaizo away from this annoying place,"The first thing now to do is to buy you a wand."
