17 August 1998.Merlin, dressed in a gray rest suit, once again appeared at London's Heathrow Airport.Everything he was doing seemed to be over for now, so Fury gave him time off and Merlin went to Europe again.He plans to take a long trip to console himself from the fatigue of the last few years.But he didn't come alone.Dressed in jeans, a T-shirt, a backpack, and short hair, Eric dragged a trolley suitcase with a cheerful look and followed Merlin.It was the first time the 17-year-old had come to Europe, and he still had a camera around his neck and was dressed as a backpacker."
Hilt Records."
Merlin waved down a taxi and gave the driver an address.As the car started, Merlin leaned back in the back seat, and he said to Eric, who was looking out the window, "I said, you'll graduate from high school next year, do you want to go to any school?"
”"Is this still a choice?
MIT, of course!
”Without looking back, Eric said to his guardian, "I have a plan for my life, Merlin. ”"Really?"
Merlin pursed his lips noncommittally, and he whispered, "Then who left the ticket in the room this morning?"
”"It was just an accident!"
Eric said with some embarrassment: "It's my first time in Europe, and I'm a little excited.Oh, by the way, Merlin, Ron is going to invite me to his house, he says his home has just been rebuilt, he has a big house, he says he has a lot of rooms in his new home, and I can stay with him this summer. ”"Yes."
Merlin took out his mobile phone, looked at the documents in the mailbox, and said casually: "Your vacation, you make your own decisions."
But don't forget what I commanded, after the new semester starts, there is a girl who has just transferred to Imperial High School and needs your care, she will live in Mei's house, I definitely don't care about her daily chores, so...
She'll leave it to you. ”"That pretty girl Charlie?"
Eric's eyes lit up, and he remembered the scene when he had dinner with the beautiful and generous Miss Charlie the other day, and he suddenly snorted with confidence: "Then wrap it up on me!"
”"Huh?"
Merlin glared at Eric, and he instinctively sensed that the guy was thinking of something rude.But that's a matter between young people, and now Coulson, who is a serious person, also had a ridiculous past when he was an adolescent, so as long as he doesn't make trouble, let them go."
I say, Merlin, you're on vacation!"
Ten minutes later, a bored Eric turned his head to watch Merlin keep sending and receiving text messages, and he complained: "Don't be busy with work, you just saved the world, so give yourself a vacation." ”"UhhhhHe looked at the scenery outside the car window and said, "Yes, what about vacation, this time, let's take a good rest." ”Soon, the taxi pulled up in front of the Hilt record store, and Merlin led Eric into Diagon Alley, which was full of wizards.It's a lot more prosperous than the last time Merlin came, but it's still a bit bleak.From letters from several young wizards, Merlin knew that Voldemort had died in May, and that the Wizarding War was over.But now it seems that the aftermath of the Wizarding War has not yet dissipated.The British wizarding world has suffered an almost devastating blow in this turmoil, and it is estimated that it will not be able to restore order in 5-10 years.After all, the number of wizards is too small.Diagon Alley was filled with all sorts of wizards, and Eric and Merlin's Muggle costumes didn't care.Eric saw it purely as a travel experience, constantly picking up his camera to take pictures, while Merlin procured a lot of the magic materials he needed, and before leaving, customized a suit for Eric in Madame Morkin's robe shop.This guy is going to have a prom next year, and he can't be allowed to wear an old suit to the prom.And he's almost an adult, it's time to have his own suit.After the purchase was completed, Merlin took Eric to the Burrow, the Weasley family's mansion, through the connection of the Floo network.When the two of them came out of the burning fireplace, the large, bright living room in front of Merlin's eyes was already full of people.Apparently, they were having a party, and Merlin and Eric were the last to arrive."
Merlin!"
When she saw Merlin appear in the gray suit that had not changed for ten thousand years, Hermione, who was holding a wine and chatting with Ginny, called out, and rushed into Merlin's arms like a child, regardless of the public.On the other side, Harry and Ron also greeted Eric who had come to the Burrow for the first time.Although it was somewhat strange for a Muggle to appear in a large group of wizards, for Merlin's sake, none of the people present showed too strange expressions.Besides, Eric wasn't the only Muggle who came to this house gathering today.Hermione's parents sat in the living room, sipping the oddly tasting magical liquor and chatting with Mr.
Arthur.Muggles like Hermione's parents, the Grangers, and Eric, who entered the wizarding world because their relatives were wizards, occupy a huge number in the entire wizarding world.They are somewhere between the wizarding world and the Muggle world, and are under the dual jurisdiction of both the Ministry of Magic and the government departments.They are not allowed to reveal the existence of the wizarding world to ordinary people, but they can also see the magical scene of the wizarding world, and in fact, to date, in fact, seventy percent of the gossip about magic has been spread by these people.They are not common, but they are by no means rare."
Well, the ring is good."
Merlin touched Hermione's hair affectionately, he noticed the amber ring on the finger of Hermione's left hand, he took a glass of wine from the side like a good elder, and said to Hermione in a low voice, "Confirmed the relationship with Ron's stupid boy?"
”"Hmm."
With a hint of girlish shyness, Hermione glanced at Ron, who was messing around with Eric, she sighed, and said to Merlin, "Ron proposed to me the other day, and both parents agreed to this family affair...""
But you don't look happy."
Merlin took a sip of his wine, he looked at Ron, then at Hermione, and said, "Actually, you should know that if you don't agree, you can say no."
It's a big deal to live in North America in the future, with me, even if it's a pure-blood wizard family, there is no way to force you.What's more, Mr.
Arthur and Lady Molly are not unreasonable people. ”"I'm not unwilling, Merlin."
Hermione, with adolescent sorrow, said to Merlin, "I don't hate Ron, and in the final showdown with Voldemort, he was brave and had the heroism I imagined."
But how to say it, he is still a lot different from the image of the person I know and want to spend my life with. ”"And it came so suddenly, I wasn't mentally prepared at all."
Hermione glanced at Merlin, who coughed lightly, and said to Hermione in an elder tone: "Imagination can only be imagination, we always have to live in reality, find someone who is not the best, but the most suitable to marry, and spend our lives together, little Hermione." ”"I want you to be happy in this life more than anyone else, although we are not related by blood, but in my heart, you will always be my cutest little sister.As long as you need it, I will definitely be there for you as soon as possible. ”He held out his finger and pinched Hermione's face, and he said, "Well, when is your wedding date?"
”Hermione giggled and dodged Merlin's fingers, and she said, "It's still early, two years later." ”"Oh, that looks like I've got plenty of time to prepare my wedding gifts."
Merlin smiled and said to Hermione, "Don't forget to send me an invitation when the time comes." ”"Then you're going to have to show up with a female companion."
Hermione smiled too, and that smile was as sunny as every time we had seen each other in years.She winked at Merlin slyly, and said, "I've found a home, and it's time for you to find yourself a place to rest." ”"Ahem, I'll talk about this later."
The first person that came to Merlin's mind was Carol, who was still looking for herself somewhere in the stars, and the second image was an unreliable mercenary in black who had not been seen for several years.Sadly, neither of them was suitable to bring to Hermione's wedding.A few minutes later, Ginny summoned Hermione to her house to help her choose clothes for the Hogwarts prom, and Merlin greeted every wizard she knew with a drink.Although he didn't have much contact with the British wizarding world, through the leadership of Mr.
Arthur, the owner of the Burrow, he also got to know a lot of wizards who stood on the side of the Order of the Phoenix.And Mr.
Ollivander, a master wand maker who has always focused only on wand making, also unexpectedly attended the party today.Merlin sat down with these orthodox wizards, and took the opportunity to ask many questions about his magical studies.Merlin was also a wizard who participated in the war against Voldemort, and although he had an unclear relationship with demons, for the sake of what he did for the British wizarding community, orthodox wizards still did their best to answer Merlin's questions.Merlin felt that the trip was well worth it.In four hours, he had learned more from these wizards than he had studied alone for a year.It seems that magic can't be done behind closed doors.The time for studying always flies very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the time is approaching evening, and after a hearty dinner, the guests take their leave.Hermione's parents would spend some time in the Burrow to discuss Hermione's marriage to Ron with the members of the Weasleys.Merlin didn't bother them, he didn't really want to get involved in the matter because of Hermione.After dinner, Merlin went to Ron's bedroom.Sure enough, as Ron said, in the later stages of the Wizarding Wars, the Burrow was burned down by the Death Eaters, and after the house was rebuilt, Ron got a large, large, well-lit bedroom that would also be his and Hermione's home in the future.After seeing Merlin walk into the room, the three young people who were sitting on the bed playing magic cards immediately put away the gold galleons in their hands, obviously, there was an element of "gambling" in their play.But how could this little action be hidden from Merlin?
He shook his head, reached out and struck the top of the three young men's heads."
No gambling!
It doesn't matter whether you win or lose, you have to understand that everything in life is uncertain except death, and gambling is always the most stupid thing to do. ”"You're talking more and more like Professor McGonagall, Merlin!"
Ron held his head and complained to Merlin, "You're only 9 years older than me, but you speak like my parents' generation!"
”"Then I'm also your elder, you bastard!"
Merlin looked at Ron sternly, and this direct gaze lasted for a full half a minute, until Ron really started to dread, until Harry and Eric in the room sensed that the atmosphere was not good, and Merlin suddenly sighed.He reached out and patted Ron on the shoulder.In a serious and low tone, he said to the young man in front of him, who was not yet 18 years old, "Hermione, is one of the most important people in my life.I wish her happiness in this life, Ron.
Weasley...
Can you give her happiness?

”"I—" Ron felt a little dry in the eyes of Merlin.He looked at his two friends as if asking for help, but their expressions grew serious to both Harry and Eric.Obviously, the question Merlin asked was also a concern for them, and Hermione was also their friend, and they also wanted Hermione to have a perfect and happy life."
I can!"
Ron gritted his teeth and looked directly at Merlin, his blue eyes shining with courage and responsibility, though still a little evasive.After all, he had seen with his own eyes how Merlin and his Muggle agents had slaughtered the terrible Death Eaters like they were chopping melons and vegetables.In the face of such a person, how can he not be afraid of him who is still a minor?"
Good."
A fleeting smile flashed across Merlin's face, and he whispered, "Remember your promise, Ron, I'm looking at you." ”"If you dare to make my little Hermione cry once...
I'll just let you cry enough, you know, I'm a person who always does what I say. ”Looking at Merlin's expression, Ron subconsciously shrunk his neck at this moment, and he felt a cool breeze blowing through his neck."
Alright, don't be nervous."
Merlin waved his hand at Harry, and he said, "Come, Harry, our great hero, Demon Slayer, come and tell me how you killed Voldemort." ”"I've always been curious about the sad end of Voldemort after all the Horcruxes were destroyed
