Sasuke Uchiha in Harry Potter - Part 2

Rota Luna - Part III

Two Months Ago

Sasuke's departure had left most of his friends feeling sad, especially Luna, Zacharias, Astoria, and Ginny, who had hoped to spend their final year at Hogwarts with him.

Then Luna commented,

Luna: It's going to be boring to go back without Sasuke.

Astoria: He should have told us he was leaving; we would have said goodbye.

Daphne: Maybe he didn't want to get emotional.

In Draco and Zacharias's minds, both thought: I doubt that.

Draco: I don't think it's necessary to complete the final year. You can take your N.E.W.T.s at the Ministry of Magic alongside the seventh-year students. Besides, with the situation approaching Hogwarts...

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

Ginny: What do you mean? Is something happening at Hogwarts?

Draco: It's a rumor I heard from some Ministry officials when I was doing business with them. They said that due to the recent scandals, they might decide to close the school, and several parents have already withdrawn their children to send them to other institutions.

Zacharias: Why would they do that?

Draco: Remember the attack by Voldemort, the students who died, and Dumbledore? Hogwarts's reputation as the safest place has been destroyed.

Everyone pondered Draco's explanation.

Luna: If that's the case, I'll take my N.E.W.T.s with you guys, then.

Daphne: Are you sure?

Luna: Yes. Sasuke has already taken the first step to achieve his dreams, and I won't be left behind. I intend to travel the world and prove the existence of the Crumple-Horned Snorkack.

The same thought crossed everyone's mind: Inspiring words, but did you have to say that last part...?

After a minute of silence, Astoria, Ginny, and Zacharias smiled.

Zacharias: THEN LET'S TAKE THE N.E.W.T.S TOGETHER!

The others nodded.

Draco: In that case, let's gather at my house to study. There's plenty of space.

One Month Later

Onboard a cruise ship, specifically in the dining area, a young woman was reading a newspaper while sipping a cup of coffee.

She caught the attention of several people around her because she had spread a world map as a tablecloth. Some countries were marked with an "X," and in addition, she was holding the newspaper upside down.

After finishing her "reading," the young woman tucked the newspaper away and took out a book from her bag, starting to flip through its pages.

Luna still vividly remembered the day her father gave her that book as she embarked on her journey around the world. The book contained a wealth of information about magical communities scattered across the globe, as well as secret locations of illegal portal keys that facilitated her quick travels. In the blank pages, Luna recorded her own observations, attaching newspaper clippings about sightings and reports of new magical creatures, along with detailed notes on those she already knew well.

She had meticulously planned this adventure in America. Luna intended to visit Mr. Newt Scamander to have him review her research and to explore villages in search of new magical creatures.
