Chapter 202: Surprise

“…”

In the living room, Lu Yunkai looked at the woman in front of him with a serious expression.

This woman named Nagini was already dressed.

Not only that, she had just walked around Lu Yunkai's house. According to Chris who followed her, she even entered the second floor where Lu Yunkai and Daphne lived, which Irene couldn't enter.

This made Lu Yunkai feel like he was facing a great enemy.

“What? I have no interest in your home at all.” Nagini snorted and looked around.

The look in your eyes doesn't mean that. Lu Yunkai secretly complained in his heart.

"Okay, stop staring at me like a thief. I'm really not interested in you." Nagini finally retracted her gaze and looked at Lu Yunkai, "Although you secretly used magic on me without my permission..."

"How about I change you back? It's very simple. I have a way to remove the effect of that magic circle..."

"Don't bother." Nagini was a little panicked for a moment, but she quickly stabilized her emotions, "I mean, there's no big problem now."

"You should say thank you. You won't die." Lu Yunkai said coldly.

Although I didn't have a kind intention to try to remove the magic on you at the beginning, it turned out to be good for you! People can't be so ungrateful! !

"Thank you!" Nagini blurted out.

Then, she was stunned.

"...Why did I say thank you just now?" Nagini muttered with a strange expression.

"What? Is it going to kill you to say thank you?" Lu Yunkai snorted, "Okay, you can leave now, and don't come back if you have nothing to do."

"If you let me go, I will... What's wrong with me?? What's wrong with me?"

Nagini's tone, which was originally a little arrogant, suddenly turned into fear, and then screamed.

And Lu Yunkai, who was sitting there, was also stunned.

Nagini stood up "very obediently", and then wanted to walk out of the living room.

Although what she said didn't seem to mean that.

"Stop!" Lu Yunkai shouted.

Nagini stopped in response.

"... Turn around?"

Did it.

Lu Yunkai saw a frightened expression on Nagini's face.

In fact, Lu Yunkai's was not much better.

The two looked at each other.

"Squat down."

...

"Stand up."

...

"Come here and sit down."

"Have you had enough fun!!!"

Nagini's scream opened the door of the living room all at once.

Irene at the door looked at the room with a solemn expression.

"... Why are you at the door? Come in if you have something to say!" Lu Yunkai looked at Irene in silence.

"What are you doing?" Irene looked at Lu Yunkai with a strange expression.

"I found something very interesting..."

"Interesting? You actually said this is interesting?" Nagini's shrill voice was powerful again, and the piercing high decibel made Lu Yunkai feel like he was attacked by sound waves for a moment.

"Shut up!" Lu Yunkai glared at Nagini.

Then, Nagini was like a duck with its neck pinched, and no sound came out.

Irene was also stunned when she saw this scene.

"It's interesting, right? She can't seem to disobey my orders..." Lu Yunkai glanced at Nagini, "Go stand at the door."

"..."

Silently, Nagini stood up and walked out of the room.

As for Irene, who was standing at the door, it seemed inappropriate to come in or leave...

"Sister Irene, come in. I just happen to have something to tell you." Lu Yunkai glanced at Chris.

Chris immediately understood that Lu Yunkai wanted it to keep an eye on Nagini. Although it couldn't figure out why Nagini seemed unable to disobey Lu Yunkai's orders, it seemed like... it didn't seem to be a bad thing.

The cat went out, the people came in, and the door was closed.

Irene's expression looked very serious.

She didn't know what Lu Yunkai had done, but the current situation of the woman named Nagini was very bad.

As a woman, she couldn't bear it.

Lu Yunkai waved his wand, and two cups of black tea appeared in front of him. He handed one to Irene, and the other cup, he took and drank it himself.

But Irene didn't pick up the teacup. Although she usually likes to drink tea the most.

"What's going on with this Nagini? Yunkai, Daphne is so good to you, you can't let her down..."

"I won't." Lu Yunkai raised his hands to show his innocence, "I just want to use her to try out the magic circle I found."

"Really?"

"Really! Some time ago, I summoned a monster and rested for more than half a month because of it. Do you remember? That monster taught me a magic circle that can remove curses."

"..."

"I know it sounds a bit mysterious, but it is true. This kind of magic that I got from nowhere, I must find someone else to try it first, and if there is no problem, then use it on Daphne!" Lu Yunkai said very frankly: "Now it seems that there is a problem."

"Because she completely obeys your orders?"

"It seems so." Lu Yunkai nodded, and then shouted to the outside of the door: "Come in!!"

With a bang, the door opened.

Nagini, whose face was purple and red, walked into the room.

Her expression seemed to be more helpless than angry.

"Strange...why does it feel like her current state is a bit...like a house elf?" Erin looked at Nagini, her expression getting weirder.

"Miss Eileen, it's different."

With a bang, Xueli suddenly appeared next to the two of them.

"...What's the difference?" Lu Yunkai glanced at Xue Li with a playful expression, and then glanced at Nagini who was standing there like a pole.

"Although we house elves should obey our master's orders, it doesn't mean that we can't disobey them at all. It's just that we must punish ourselves after disobeying our master's orders." Xueli said in the weird tone unique to house elves.

"So, for you, obeying the master's orders is more of your own inner choice?" Lu Yunkai nodded.

"Yes, Master." Xue Li nodded.

"Okay, you can leave." Lu Yunkai wanted to tell Irene, but he still didn't want Xueli to be around to listen, so he ordered.

"Yes, Master." Xue Li nodded, then disappeared in a flash.

"You can get out too." Lu Yunkai ordered Nagini.

Nagini still said nothing, turned and left.

"...I still think it's very similar." Looking at Nagini's leaving figure, Irene muttered, "You have something to tell me? What is it?"

"This magic circle can help people lift spells. Don't tell anyone, including Daphne, for the time being." Lu Yunkai's face looked very serious, "This magic circle... well, when I look back, my body will be fully recovered. I will try to summon the thing I summoned before and ask what happened to it. I hope you can keep it secret for me until the problem is solved."

"Okay." After hearing that Lu Yunkai just made such a request, Irene simply agreed.

Indeed, the current effect of this magic is really unsatisfactory. And based on what Irene knows about her from getting along with Daphne, the girl might not mind listening to Lu Yun's advice on everything... Or maybe she would be very satisfied with the effect? ?

For the sake of that infatuated silly girl, Irene felt that as an older sister, she had to help her.

Seeing Irene's answer, Lu Yunkai felt relieved and politely said that he had to check a book or something to confirm what the blood curse Nagini was talking about was.

This means that Erin can leave.

And Eileen also remembered the transplanting work she had not finished in the backyard, and did not stay in the reception room any longer.

Lu Yunkai was the only one left in the room. He also took out a few books from the system and started reading them.

The matter of the blood curse was much easier to investigate than Lu Yunkai imagined. It's just that he knew too little about the big snake before, and no one cared about whether the so-called "blood-cursed orcs" who were hit by the blood curse were still alive after the blood curse exerted its final effect and completely turned into beasts. He retained the soul of a human being, so he didn't think for a moment that Nagini might be a blood-cursed orc.

Now holding Guo Suoyin, Lu Yunkai immediately found a lot of books describing the blood curse and blood curse orcs.

In these books, Lu Yunkai saw descriptions of blood curses such as "irreversible" and "unbreakable" more than once.

It seems that the only result of falling under this curse is turning into a beast and losing human consciousness.

Looking at this unified answer in different books, Lu Yunkai's expression became more and more solemn.

If what Nagini said was true (it seemed like she had no need to lie), the spell-breaking spell that the monster taught him seemed to be indeed effective. But the question is, how could Nagini completely listen to her own words?

Professor Flitwick said more than once in the Charms class that all spells will not cause problems for no reason. For example, in the first grade, the problem of casting a floating spell has troubled the students for a month. Waving the wand or reciting the spell with stress... may cause the spell to fail or cause accidents.

Did Lu Yunkai have any accidents in this magic circle?

Halfway through the operation of the magic circle, I wanted to add some symbols to the magic circle. Is it an accident?

It's obvious!

From this point of view, it seems that this magic circle is ineffective...

But it stands to reason that such a fatal problem should lead to the complete failure of magic! How could Nagini suddenly start to listen to him?

With this question in mind, Lu Yunkai checked other books.

…

"Meow?? Are you still there?"

When Lu Yunkai came back to his senses, the magic candle in the reception room had already started burning by itself, and the sky outside had been dark for who knows how long.

And Chrissy, who came in yawning, had a ridiculous tone when she called him out of his concentration.

"I'm checking information." Lu Yunkai rubbed his eyes that suddenly felt a little tired, "What time is it?"

"It's almost midnight." Chris came to Lu Yunkai's side in a few steps, jumped onto his shoulders skillfully, and glanced at the book in front of Lu Yunkai, "...Contract Magic? Are you reading this?"

"Yeah." Lu Yunkai nodded, "I don't understand what's going on, so I feel a little flustered. After all... she is Voldemort's pet."

"I know." Chris understood Lu Yunkai's thoughts very well, "But I don't think you need to check the book. Isn't this an obvious master-servant contract?"

"...Master-servant contract? No way! Voldemort and the Death Eaters also have master-servant contracts! When did Lucius listen to Voldemort so much?" Lu Yunkai smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, I'll check it first, anyway... By the way, where is Nagini?"

"She fell asleep standing outside."

"...Ah?"

"You ordered her to stay outside, what else can she do?" Chris sighed a little helplessly, "Actually... I don't think you need to bully her like this, she's quite pitiful."

"...I'm not bullying her, I really forgot." Lu Yunkai patted his head, "By the way, Shirley!!"

"Master?" Shirley appeared in response.

"Help me arrange a room..."

"It's already arranged. If you plan to arrange for Miss Nagini standing outside to stay, you can do it now."

"...Okay." Lu Yunkai nodded with relief.

To be honest, house elves are really charming creatures!

"Meow, let her in?" Chris reminded Lu Yunkai.

"Oh. Nagini! Come in!" Lu Yunkai shouted to the outside.

Nagini, who was obviously still half asleep, walked into the room.

Without even opening her eyes.

"Go to rest with Shirley." Seeing her like that, Lu Yunkai suddenly felt a little sorry, so he gave an order: "But you can't leave your room without my permission."

"..."

Nagini didn't answer, but still followed Shirley and left the reception room.

The man and the cat in the room fell silent again.

"She is really pitiful." Chris said again, "Unlike Peter, she was forced to become a snake and became Voldemort's pet..."

"I understand." Lu Yunkai sighed helplessly again and flipped through the book in his hand, "I read the description of the blood-cursed orcs in the book this afternoon. Their situation is indeed miserable. But her situation is really too special. If she is not so closely related to Voldemort, I will never embarrass her, but she just..."

"Meow, what should I do?" Chris was helpless.

To be honest, the current situation is really a mess.

Originally, Lu Yunkai wanted to use Nagini, but she is in this state now. Not to mention Lu Yunkai, even Chris doesn't know how to use her.

"I don't know. Let's take a rest first." Lu Yunkai yawned, "Daphne will come to Diagon Alley with me tomorrow to buy things for this school year."

"Meow." Chris nodded, "You can let Nagini hide in the room, so that you can hide it for a day."

"...Why do I feel like I'm hiding a wild woman at home!" Lu Yunkai scratched his head in annoyance, "It's so unfair!!"

"Then why don't you use this magic circle on Daphne! In that case, she will have to listen to you in everything, and you don't have to explain..."

"You can think of it!!"

Lu Yunkai glared at Chris.

"Meow, if you really do that, I will never talk to you again." Chris saw that Lu Yunkai refused very straightforwardly, and seemed to be relieved, "I just want to remind you, don't become that kind of person."

"... You don't need to remind me!!"

"Meow! Who knows! The potions you made recently and the magic circles you studied all look like black magic!" Chris shook her head to herself, "Who knows if you will be addicted to the great power of black magic, and then think that you can use power to solve all problems..."

"Oh! I know! I am a good person! Thank you! !"

"Meow! That's better." Chris looked at Lu Yunkai who was annoyed by her nagging and nodded with relief, "If you are really controlled by black magic... I will be very disappointed, meow."

"No! !" Lu Yunkai put the book away and stood up, "If you really have time to worry about me, you might as well help me find someone to ask about the contract."

"Tomorrow I will go to Knockturn Alley with you to find someone to ask!" Chris nodded, "By the way, let's watch your lie to Daphne."

"...You are so troublesome!"

Lu Yunkai glared at Chris and walked out of the reception room.
