Holidays were always the best time for tutoring.
But the British did not have this habit.
When Stephen came out of the fireplace with a simple suitcase, he bumped into Kalidi, who was ready to greet him.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Statham. Kalidi of the Smith family is at your service."
The elf bowed and said wittily, "Master is already waiting for you upstairs. You can leave your luggage to me, and I will arrange a place for you to stay."
"Okay, thank you."
Under the long-term influence of Jon, Stephen began to change his attitude toward the elf.
Jon was standing upstairs, enjoying the scenery that he had not seen for a long time.
Lohat was in the small room that Kalidi had prepared in advance to prepare for the lesson. After all, Jon had said that the lesson would start tonight, and he was still very nervous.
"So, you still have a lesson tonight?"
Stephen took Jon's half-drunk juice and finished it in one gulp. Then he sighed and said, "The life of a noble is quite different from the life of an ordinary Wizard like us."
"You don't feel bad when you don't insult me?"
Jon leaned against the window and put the cup that Stephen handed back on the windowsill. He asked, "Speaking of which, aren't you sleepy?"
It was noon in summer. Even if the room was set up with a heating magic circle and did not feel uncomfortably hot, this kind of weather would always make people feel sleepy.
Even though Jon had just woken up, he was already beginning to feel tired.
At this time, he really should go to sleep!
Stephen looked at Jon, who was leaning against the wall in casual shorts, and felt that the person in front of him was a little different.
"You … Did you grow taller?"
"Did I?"
Jon followed Stephen's gaze and looked down. Sure enough, the shorts that could cover his knees were now shorter, and his calves were exposed.
Wasn't he fine before going to bed yesterday?
[Miracle of the Deep] had this kind of effect on body growth?
Jon stood up straight and found that he was indeed a little taller than Stephen.
He was almost 1.7 meters at 12 years old. This fact should be, probably, a little cruel.
He hoped that he would grow slower in the future.
However, this height was not without its benefits.
Stephen looked at the grinning Jon in front of him and the hand on his head. He really wanted to kick it.
He was wrong. He shouldn't have agreed to come here in the first place. If he hadn't come, he wouldn't have …
"Done."
Jon retracted his hand at the right time. It was definitely a wise decision to stop before Stephen exploded.
"I'll be writing something in the study in the afternoon. You can stroll around the manor by yourself. If you need anything, just look for Carlyle. The manor next door is my grandmother's house. My cousin, Béla, is probably very bored right now. You can go and chat with her."
"Oh, right, I haven't seen your sister yet!"
"There's nothing to see. He cries when he sleeps. A child who hasn't grown up is not fun at all. If you want to play with him, I don't mind at all. But don't let my mother know that Lohat is here with me. For my …"
"You won't make any mistakes in your studies."
Stephen replied smoothly, "Yes.
"Don't worry. You've told me these things many times. I remember it very clearly now … But you didn't invite me here just for this, right? Didn't you say that you want to go to class? "
"Originally, I did want you to go to class with me, but looking at your current state, it's obvious that you don't want to study anymore. It's better to play with me for a few days."
Stephen nodded. "You've finally realized that? You'd better spare me. It's fine if you're like this in school, but now that Fran and Scully are playing in France, I don't want to spend a fulfilling and hard-working holiday with a learning maniac like you. "
"I always feel that you're mocking me."
"Don't get me wrong. I'm just mocking you. There's no other meaning."
The two laughed and talked for a while. Jon went back to his room and found a slightly thinner set of short-sleeved shorts and gave it to Stephen.
Based on his understanding of Stephen, he would only bring a change of Wizard's robe and underwear here, not clothes from the Muggle world.
"I don't think it's necessary."
"You're welcome."
Stephen willingly took the clothes, and then under Jon's watch, he went into the guest room prepared by Carlyle and changed his clothes.
"Are my shoulders so wide?"
Jon looked at the clothes that were just the right length and obviously a little bigger on Stephen's body. Although it didn't fit well, this simple white short-sleeved shirt felt good on Stephen.
"Yes, haven't you noticed that your shoulders are wider than ours?"
Stephen tilted his head and said to Jon. Because Jon's physique looked stronger, they thought that Jon was an honest person at first.
Naturally, this couldn't be said to Jon.
Stephen, who turned his head, looked at himself in the mirror and still wanted to change out of these clothes.
"Wearing it in front of Oversize, it actually looks good."
Oversize？
Okay, used to the new words that popped out of Jon's mouth from time to time, Stephen didn't want to be entangled in such a trivial matter.
But the clothes were still very comfortable.
After watching Stephen walk into the garden, Jon was relieved and returned to the study to start "working".
Stephen still didn't know his identity. Although Jon was open about his identity as Hufflepuff's descendant, he didn't intend to publicize it.
In this day and age, having a powerful background was no longer of much use. Would the Dark Sorcerers spare him just because of his background?
Hufflepuff's descendant, it sounded like a thief, but in fact, people would not admit it.
Even if Dumbledore endorsed him.
There was a barrier between a declining family and a thriving family. If you were not a member of their circle, it would be difficult to fit in.
His reputation was still not comparable to Harry Potter's.
Therefore, his identity was a secret that only a few people knew about.
Jon planned to wait for his sister to grow up before telling her about it. He and Helga had calculated that within ten years, the magic level of this world would rise to the level of Helga's era. After all, at that time, the magic environment was not very strong.
It was a very long process to rise from a low-magic world to a high-magic world. The fast beginning was because of the rebound, and the subsequent long waiting period was normal.
