0846 Considerations

The moment Trask Graves finished delivering his formal statement, Remus couldn't suppress the heavy exhalation of relief that left his lips like steam from a pressure valve. The enormous stone of anxiety that had been pressing against his chest fo...

0845 Acceptance

Bryan's gaze fell upon the silent Graves, observing the man's stiff posture and facial expression with scrutiny. For several seconds under the unspoken tension, Bryan observed many subtle details.

Finally, a strange and calculating glint fli...

0844 Proposals

Regardless of their official position, department rank, or years of governmental experience, not a single person present in this conference room was a fool. The political and economic sophistication required to reach such levels within MACUSA's hi...

0843 New Plans

The relevant materials and documentation had been submitted a long time ago by Remus to the International Magical Cooperation Department for review. Now, in this conference room, Bryan and Remus faced the crucial moment where they needed to provid...

0842 Meeting

Since Bryan was willing to accept the invitation from that highly suspicious letter, there was certainly no logical reason to refuse the far more straightforward dinner invitation extended by Amelia's well-intentioned parents. Though it would simp...

0841 The Plans

"Your parents invited me to dinner at your home?"

In the presidential suite of his Manhattan hotel, Bryan slowly placed the crystal wine glass in his hand onto the white marble bar counter decorated with swirling patterns. His eyebrow arched...

0840 Each's own (LARGE-CHAPTER)

The setting sun's afterglow draped the city in a blood-red veil. Before darkness could fully descend, a chilling aura of impending violence seemed to hang in the air, ready to strike. Meanwhile, in the MACUSA dining hall, the 'casual conversation'...

The Woolworth Building,

Magical Congress of the United States of America

When dusk met the dividing line with night, another ordinary yet busy workday had come to an end. A long queue of mentally exhau...

0838 Back

The cellar fell into a thoughtful silence as Newt's inquiry echoed in the air. The basilisk, its body sprawled across the floor, trembled with each breath beneath the oppressiveness of the Fiendfyre collar that encircled its neck.

Wright twi...

0837 The Object

A tremendous roar echoed through the dark chamber, the heavy impact causing the entire vast room to tremble. What was even more alarming was that under the basilisk's frantic, desperate ramming, Salazar Slytherin's stone leg snapped clean off at t...

0836 Wright

Bryan followed Newt's figure as they made their way around the wooden cabin toward its back area. Beside a vegetable garden where numerous garden gnomes could be seen darting around between rows of cabbages, carrots, and beans, there stood what at...

0835 Troubles

Newt Scamander looked at the young wizard in front of him with eyes that held the clarity of decades spent observing both magical creatures and human nature in their purest forms.

In recent years, this young man's name had begun appearing in...

0834 Consequences

Crunch, crunch, crunch—

The horrifyingly sound of sharp, dagger-like teeth gnashing violently against each other filled the mountain air with a bone-chilling symphony of destruction and consumption.

Pale bone fragmen...

0833 Times

Using one's tragic and unfortunate past experiences as a tool to manipulate emotions and gain sympathy from others was, in Bryan's view, the behavior pattern of those who had weak characters.

Even without possessing overwhelming magical powe...

0832 The Past

Both Mr. and Mrs. Depp were making desperate attempts to conceal and suppress the overwhelming tsunami of emotions, but their hastily constructed emotional disguise was pitifully inadequate when faced with the perceptive scrutiny of Bryan. Their f...

0831 Regrets

For a moment, Amelia found herself genuinely wondering whether her father and mother had perhaps suffered some kind of severe psychological shock or traumatic episode that had turned them mentally unstable.

However, when she intentionally sh...

0830 Emotions

'Bryan Watson?!'

This name, this surname. Mr. and Mrs. Depp's faces froze and turned pale, their aging hearts pumping rapidly within their chests, the surging blood now began pumping with frantic, irregular rhythm and rushed up to t...

0829 Meeting

"Our daughter really needs proper rest and recovery time right now. Could you perhaps come back another time to give your lecture?"

Upon hearing these words floating through the partially open doorway, Bryan and Remus, who had been standing ...

0828 Visiting

Government interference and manipulation of mainstream news media was something that happened in both Muggle world and the wizarding world, regardless of which specific country or political system one might be inspecting.

But when Remus pick...

0827 The Meeting

The bright moon hung like a spotlight in the western part of the sky, its silver radiance casting shadows across the urban landscape of New York City. The persistent clamor of traffic throughout the bustling daylight hours was finally beginning to...

0826 Expert (BIG-CHAPTER)

Bryan stopped his movements, his gaze shifting from the three kneazles that had appeared in the prison to the wizard who had just apparated nearby.

From the newcomer's completely gray-white short hair and beard, as well as the deep creases a...

0825 Solving the Problem

After fighting to this point, the Nundu had come to deeply understand just how formidable Bryan actually was.

It knew that all those other wizards' abilities depended on the 'little wooden sticks' they clutched in their hands. But the gray-h...

0824 The Battle

Dozens of tons of reinforced concrete crashed down like an apocalyptic avalanche onto the ground thirty feet below. The impact created explosions of pulverized stone and twisted metal, wafting enormous clouds of choking dust that spread in all dir...

0823 The Beast

The wild beasts of the jungle possess instincts far keener than any wizard's, as this intelligence was ingrained in their genes by millennia of survival—especially a Nundu standing at the apex of the food chain, its body was evolved as a result ...

0822 The Accident

The sudden and violent commotion erupting from the streets below left Gnarlak completely bewildered and disoriented, his calculating mind was struggling to process the unexpected chaos that had so abruptly transformed his controlled business place...

0821 The Intelligence

After listening intently to the intelligence provided by the cunning goblin, the three members of Bryan's group maintained their thoughtful silence, each lost in their own thoughts as they processed what they had just heard.

Amelia had a tro...

0820 The Situation

"Trask Graves—yes indeed, a man of sterling reputation and moral conviction. Upright and incorruptible to his very core, someone who despises evil with the passion of a crusader confronting heretics,"

Gnarlak began, his lips curving into a...

0819 The Goblin Gnarlak

Gnarlak's gaze fell upon Hobby, and he began smacking his lips with obvious interest in this fine specimen of a cat-like creature. His eager eyes then swept over the three guests seated at the table.

The first to catch his attention was the ...
