The giant snake faintly spat out a snake letter, probably because he didn't expect to meet an interesting little snake just after waking up. It can be regarded as the same kind of snake.
It tentatively approached the wall where Noah was, spitting out a snake message to say hello. Listening to Keya's wishes, the attitude of this basilisk was quite good, and it seemed that there was no hostility. But Noah would not judge the danger of this basilisk based on this one-sided statement. After all, the basilisk's eyes have "petrification" magic. It is best not to approach it casually, but it is still okay to talk through the wall.
Noah took a look around. Instead of the dark and damp dungeon, he planned to find an empty classroom as a place for the two snakes to talk.
He walked back with Keya.
"Huh? Lannister, where are you going?" A Slytherin looked at Noah in confusion.
"Go out for a little while." Noah went up the stairs and left the dungeon without further explanation.
"Huh?" The Slytherin tilted his head in confusion, "Didn't you say there was a game at noon today?"
There is a card duel between two prefects at noon today!
As Koya moved, the basilisk also realized that the new little guy was moving, and moved with it. It was quite familiar with the castle. The pipes all over the castle were its lairs, and it was even in high spirits. Invited Keya to play together.
Of course, it goes without saying that Noah and Keya actively rejected this proposal. This lazy snake rarely leaves Noah except when hunting, let alone crawling around in the maze-like pipeline.
The vacant classrooms this year are basically on the fourth floor, but going up the stairs means you may encounter certain people.
[Here, here...]
【Got you……】
Harry, who was with his two friends, suddenly stopped and looked around subconsciously, as if he was looking for something.
"What's wrong?" Ron and Hermione turned to look, wondering what he was looking for.
"Did you hear it?" Harry looked at the wall uncertainly, "There is a sound inside the wall."
"Hey, man," Ron patted him on the shoulder, "We don't have a classroom next door, how can there be any noise?"
Harry frowned: "Someone is really talking, two people!"
He pointed to the top: "One is on the stairs, and the other is in the wall. The two sounds are very different!"
Hermione and Ron subconsciously looked up, and happened to see Noah looking down at the corner of the stairs above.
The three of them were startled subconsciously, but saw Noah retracting his gaze lightly and disappearing around the corner.
Harry suddenly remembered something: "I remembered, there was a voice I heard."
He talked about the time last year when he heard the sound of milky milk at the corner, and then saw Noah at the corner.
Ron and Hermione's expressions became serious. They did not question Harry's words anymore and asked Harry in a low voice what was going on.
"...The voices in the wall sound a little colder and creepy. The one above..."
Noah, who was standing at the top of the stairs, lowered his eyes and listened to all the words of the three people. He also raised his hand to tease Keya, who stuck out his head from his collar.
So, does Keya's voice sound milky to Shelao dialect? Sure enough, he is too young.
Too bad he couldn't hear it himself.
…
For the first time, Noah regretted that he was not a snake. Although he also had spiritual magic that could communicate with other people or animals, that kind of magic also relied on mental power to communicate and did not produce sound, so he could not hear it. to "sound".
Although there is communication magic related to being able to hear "voices", it is a talent of other races and cannot be learned through study. Of course, if you master the rules of the life system, that's a different story.
Noah found a suitable classroom. There were no classes in this classroom this semester and he could use it as he pleased.
After casting a door-locking spell, Noah released Keya.
Keya crawled along the table to the wall and patted the wall with his tail.
There was also a muffled sound of pipes being knocked from the wall.
, apparently the basilisk inside doesn't care too much about being discovered.
The two snakes began to communicate, and Noah could only guess what the basilisk was saying based on Keya's reaction. Fortunately, the two snakes were not creatures with too complicated brains, so Noah didn't have to work too hard to guess.
[My name is Keya, what is your name? 】
[My name is Basilisk. 】
[Basilisk? Sounds cool, did your owner give you that name? 】
[My master says I am a basilisk. 】
[My master said I was a snake, but named me Keya. 】
The two snakes talked about names for a full five minutes, and complimented each other on how cool their names were. After all, he heard Keya say that he wanted to call himself "basilisk" or "snake king" or something like that.
Noah: "..."
But it can be seen that the Basilisk has a very good attitude towards Keya. Maybe it is because he has finally met someone of the same kind after living for so long?
Noah was thinking about it, and when he reacted, the conversation between the two snakes had changed to their respective masters.
[My master is here, but he is not a snake. 】
[How can you communicate if you don’t speak like a snake? 】
[My master can communicate with me even if he’s not a snake talker! My master is super powerful. Not only can he communicate with me, but he can also communicate with unicorns and Bowtruckles! 】
Noah: "?"
【Really? 】
【real! 】
[My master is also very powerful. 】
[Definitely not as powerful as my master! 】
[No, my master must be more powerful! 】
[Impossible, my master is more powerful! 】
【……】
Noah: "..." That's enough. He doesn't want to compete with the legendary wizard from thousands of years ago to see who is more powerful.
But the two snakes were quarreling passionately, but the strange thing was that they were only arguing verbally, as if whoever wins the quarrel has a more powerful owner, and it does not rise to the level of force at all.
Noah: "..." It's because he doesn't understand snakes anymore.
In desperation, Keya could only temporarily stop the quarrel between the two snakes, and communicated with the basilisk through Keya.
[Someone woke me up and asked me to kill some people. Although it's not Slytherin, it has a familiar flavor. ] Coupled with the old snake accent, it agreed.
[Are you going to listen to the old snake accent? ] Keya felt a little strange, [I'm not your master. 】
[It smells familiar, probably the descendant of the owner. ] The basilisk was probably a side topic to Keya's popular science. Human life is very short, so it is "common sense" that is passed down through future generations. Keya was stunned when he heard this, and turned to look at Noah.
[Master, will you die too? 】
Noah: "..."
Not understanding what Noah was saying, Keya continued speaking on his own; [But can I not listen to your descendants? It feels very strange. 】
"It might be a little early for us to talk about this," Noah was speechless, "Let's get down to business first."
He is only fourteen years old, is it a little early to say this?
