Um?
Is sympathy an emotion? What are you waiting for?
After Kyle heard the system's notification sound in his head, he was instantly excited. On his face was a combination of a strong smile and a miserable expression. It can definitely be said that he was possessed by an Oscar-winning actor.
"It's nothing, I've been living here alone since I was six years old. Who made me an orphan? There's nowhere else to go. In fact, Knockturn Alley is pretty good, and it's not as bad as it looks on the surface. Just be careful, don't go to places with few people, don't go out too much, and don't sleep too soundly..."
"I have been caught more than 30 times by dark wizards before, and they all wanted to sell me as material for magic experiments. But in the end, I escaped wisely. Speaking of which, on my eighth birthday, I made myself a cake out of mud and made a wish. You will never guess what wish I made. I can't help laughing when I say it now. I hoped for a night when I could sleep soundly and peacefully."
Kyle gradually came into character. Dumbledore was taken aback by what he said...
This brat...
According to the information collected by Dumbledore, ever since Kyle made a name for himself in Knockturn Alley, some people here haven't been able to sleep well, but those are the other dark wizards in Knockturn Alley!

Cassandra didn't know Kyle's past achievements, and her heart trembled when she heard this. She couldn't imagine that while she was enjoying favorable conditions, some people didn't even dare to sleep too soundly. My biggest wish on my birthday used to be to sleep beautifully.

"If possible, maybe I can consider letting my father adopt you!" Cassandra said. "Don't get me wrong, I just can't stand it, I don't want to overflow with boring sympathy." Cassandra looked away, avoiding Kyle's gaze, not wanting him to see her red eyes.
"Jie Jie Jie... Look, two little wizards and an old man..." Just then, a middle-aged black wizard approached. The dark wizards in Knockturn Alley seem frightening, but in reality, they are at the lowest tier of the magical world. A significant number of them have never even attended a magic academy. They were discovered and abducted by other dark wizards, subjected to various cruel experiments. If they survived, they were accepted as apprentices. Many only learned a few rudimentary spells. Let alone recognize Dumbledore. "It's really a lucky day. Two dark wizards who've strayed into Knockturn Alley might fetch a good price," the dark wizard commented with a smirk, eyeing Kyle and Cassandra.
As he drew closer, the more he stared at Kyle's figure, the more familiar Kyle seemed. Suddenly, a look of panic spread across his face. Kneeling on the ground with a "plop," he almost lost his soul in fright. "Kay... Kyle... no, Lord Mephisto! Oh, Merlin, I didn't know it was you! Forgive me!" Kyle's reputation in Knockturn Alley isn't just talk; it was earned through actions. Even though this is one of the largest gathering places of dark wizards in Europe, the dominance Kyle holds is significant.
Most of the dark wizards in Knockturn Alley had been replaced by Kyle, and no one dared to defy his will. Even Borgin and Burkes were reluctant to provoke him. "Uh, would you believe me if I said that he admitted the wrong person?" Kyle looked innocently at Cassandra, who seemed angry upon realizing she had been misled. The commotion had drawn the attention of other dark wizards passing through Knockturn Alley.
"Oh, it's Lord Mephisto!" "Merlin, why is he back?" "It's over for the poor soul who offended him." "How many do you think Lord Mephisto will kill this time? I bet at least ten dark wizards will die in Knockturn Alley tonight."
A flurry of whispers filled the air. Cassandra was taken aback, "!!!!" [Ding! Anger detected!] [Ding! The treasure chest is being extracted for the host.] [Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a golden treasure chest!]
