Chapter 250: Fury’s Call
🕑 Added 2025-07-19 08:26:08 +0000 UTCNoah didn’t have much of a concept of time, but others were different.
Students were always highly sensitive to time. At least during this period, no matter how good the students were at their studies, they were all looking forward to the holiday.
Why? Because when the holiday came, they could watch the story of their senior, Noah Finniel, in a newly opened cinema called “Giveaway” in Diagon Alley.
To be honest, they didn’t care what the movie was about, or even the name of the cinema.
All they cared about was Noah’s growth story. Even though Noah’s time at Hogwarts only spanned three years, it was enough to excite them!
Noah, however, wasn’t all that interested in the movie about himself. He had already seen the sample film.
How should he describe it? It was like looking in a mirror. While the restoration was quite high, many details were changed.
For instance, Noah had originally wanted to go to Slytherin, but he was concerned he wouldn't fit in due to his bloodline. He didn’t want to go to Gryffindor, so he ended up in Ravenclaw.
But in the movie, Noah communicated directly with the Sorting Hat and requested to be placed in Ravenclaw.
Honestly, if it had happened again, and Noah had realized that Slytherin didn’t only accept pure-blood wizards, he would’ve told the Sorting Hat, "I want to go to Slytherin!"
But sadly, Noah couldn’t go back and change things. He was very happy in Ravenclaw, though. If he had ended up in Slytherin, the story might have been different.
"Speaking of which, I remember feeling a sense of loss at the time. I seem to have misunderstood the way Slytherin recruited students," Noah muttered.
The Sorting Hat hadn’t mentioned that Noah had wanted to go to Slytherin, but he himself remembered it.
Both Dumbledore and the others who listened to Noah's story chose to ignore this point.
Of course, changes were normal, and Noah didn’t think there was anything wrong with it.
As for the timeline when Noah had run off to the United States, they didn’t plan to include that. However, Noah hadn’t intended to film that part anyway. Constantine had made it clear that he would never let such a thing appear on the big screen!
At the time, Constantine had been a "salted fish" waiting to die. Although he had a dream of changing things, dreams were always beautiful, weren’t they?
The harsh reality had forced Constantine into his salted fish role. That was, until Noah arrived.
Despite his complaints about the movie, Noah still chose to attend the premiere. After all, as the developer, producer, and protagonist of the story, if he didn’t show up, it would likely have been a major blow to the film.
When Noah arrived with Ms. Heifen, Wong , and Dennis, it caused quite a stir.
In addition to Noah and his group, Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape and his daughter, and of course, other professors, all arrived one by one.
Even most of the people from Noah's class came. To put it simply, the scene was packed.
To accommodate everyone, Noah had to ask Dumbledore for help in setting up multiple space folds, squeezing everyone into the venue.
When the premiere ended, many moviegoers were reluctant to leave. Some even went out to buy tickets for the second showing.
The movie had been a huge success. Noah earned more than two thousand Galleons that day!
"Seriously, you were so interesting when you were a child?" Ms. Heifen asked as they returned to the temple, still immersed in the plot.
She had no idea that Hogwarts was like that, and she was surprised to learn that Noah’s school life had been so interesting.
"It’s okay. I felt good when I was in Hogwarts," Noah said, slumping on the sofa, reminiscing about the past. It really had been an interesting time.
Ms. Heifen sat beside him, leaned on his shoulder, and asked with a smile, "When you went to save Hermione and faced a giant beast, did you feel excited? Speaking of which, she’s become very beautiful now. Don’t you…?"
"No," Noah interrupted, immediately denying it.
This, too, was something that had been changed in the movie.
At the time, Noah hadn’t told the actors the true purpose of his actions. Instead, it had turned into the classic hero-saves-beauty story.
Noah felt a little embarrassed watching the scene, especially since Hermione's face turned a bit red.
"Why? You’re already 25 years old. Why don’t you find a girlfriend?" Ms. Heifen tilted her head and looked at Noah strangely. Suddenly, a mischievous thought crossed her mind. "Are you like Minister Dumbledore?"
"Like Dumbledore?" Noah was stunned, his face darkening. "Damn it, how could I be like him?"
"Then why don’t you have a girlfriend yet? At your age, with your appearance and talent, it shouldn’t be hard, right?"
"And what about you, dear? With your looks and talent, shouldn’t it be easy for you to find a boyfriend?" Noah retorted.
Ms. Heifen was too lazy to argue with Noah’s stubborn attitude. What could she say in response?
If she hadn’t been pressured by her family, maybe she could have had a happy relationship by now.
In the end, Ms. Heifen took over the orphanage and poured all her energy into it. As for learning magic, it wasn’t something she had thought much about.
Noah, on the other hand, seemed to be entirely focused on magic and didn’t care much about anything else.
He had many friends, including a few of the opposite sex, but there was no romantic progression.
This left Ms. Heifen a bit uncertain about what to think. But after reflecting, she decided there was no need to ask.
The life span of a magician was still very long, and Ms. Heifen thought it was better to take things one step at a time.
"By the way, what are your plans next?" Ms. Heifen asked, shaking her head and changing the subject.
"Plans?" Noah thought for a moment and replied, "The next plan is, of course, to find the right person to be my apprentice."
"Is that so?" Ms. Heifen thought for a moment, then asked, "What do you think of the children in the orphanage? Could they be like me?"
"Indeed," Noah nodded. "But, you know, they’re all ordinary people, so this matter needs to be handled carefully and kept secret, understand?"
"Of course, I understand. Just like me, right?"
"Yes, and it’s even more special than your situation. When they come here, they’ll have to make various vows. I’ll also choose those who are absolutely fine in character and studious. I don’t want any troublemakers in my hands."
"Like Voldemort?"
"Yeah."
It wasn’t just Voldemort—there was also the future Casillas, and Mordo, who had yet to change or understand certain things.
Speaking of these two, Noah couldn’t help but think of Casillas, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, but Mordo he encountered more often.
Mordo had changed a lot. Though he still refused to cross certain lines, he knew how to make the right choices at critical moments.
Noah was happy to see such changes. After all, in the Hogwarts days, was it necessary for him to witness all the tragedies? That was impossible, unless Noah had no ability to change things.
Now, with his current level, Noah had the power to make changes where needed. He wouldn’t hesitate to do so.
Although Voldemort was troublesome, Dumbledore could completely crush him.
Mordo was troublesome too, but his nature wasn’t bad.
As for Casillas, he gave Noah a very bad vibe.
Though he appeared kind, his beliefs were firm, and unless forbidden magic was used, no one could alter things like life and death.
But forbidden magic came with a price. Not everyone was like Voldemort, creating countless evil Horcruxes in pursuit of immortality.
And not everyone was like Professor Snape.
Although Snape couldn’t get out of the situation like Casillas, he wasn’t so obsessed with it either.
Thanks to Noah’s advice and help, Snape had found a new way to express his feelings.
But Casillas had gone down a dark path.
Noah hadn’t mentioned Snape’s method, as Casillas had rejected it, thinking Noah’s suggestion was merely self-deception.
Noah didn’t have a solution for this, but if Casillas really went down that road, Noah would make sure he regretted causing trouble in the London Temple.
Well, that was only if Noah was stationed there. If not, he could always rush back.
Ms. Heifen didn’t know that Noah had been thinking about all this. She agreed with his plan, though.
Talent wasn’t as important with the help of meditation, and Noah didn’t need to meditate. His dedication to basic training was the key to his success.
Besides the kids, Ms. Heifen also asked about Noah's research progress, his magic level, and more.
While answering her, Noah held Gugu, who was running around the temple, in one hand, and pulled Nagini, who was hanging around his neck, out with the other to stretch her. Just as he was finishing his answers, Noah’s phone suddenly rang.
The name displayed was none other than Fury.
