Chapter 298: Herpo the Foul (I)

Almost two weeks had gone by since Kai's return to the Harry Potter World.
On the third floor of the restaurant/hotel Brews and Stews, Darcie's room was enshrouded in a thick orange-red color of roaring fire.
Outside, one could see a thin mist through the windows and the silence of the Diagon Alley that was too vast to take in at one glance. Inside, the room temperature was soothing, warm, and cozy.
However, the little girl was nowhere to be seen.
There was a suitcase placed neatly by the bed, and other than the fire in the hearth, it was the only thing that looked alive in this room.
Inside the suitcase, another fire was blazing hot in an even vaster hearth on one side of the giant hall.
Near the hearth, Cersei and Kai were seated on one side of a small table.
Cersei was wearing a green gown, and a fur cloak, and her hair were falling over her shoulders with royal majesty. She was nearer to the fire, and at Kai's right.
On the table, a chessboard was propped open, white and black pieces fuming hot breath out of their nostrils.
