Connor's Hogwarts

"Connor, this is your painting?"

In the Lake Manor, grandfather Devin was looking at the Pikachu handed over by Connor with a shocked face, a 3D physical projection version with a 360° reproduction without blind spots.

"Yes, this is a painting I made by studying the Far Eastern magic left behind by my father. Take a look." Connor said.

Returning to Lake Manor, Connor was warmly welcomed and greeted by his grandfather. In order to prevent his grandfather from chatting forever, Connor took out his new work and perfectly dominated the topic.

"A genius-like magical idea, no, this is simply a revolution in painting magic! It can actually make paintings affect reality!" Grandfather was so excited that his whole body trembled, and he carefully stroked the innocent-looking Pikachu, as if stroking some rare treasure. .

"Connor, this magical pattern." Grandfather looked at Connor mysteriously and complicatedly, but hesitated to speak.

Theoretically speaking, Eastern magic and Western magic are two systems. Their blood inheritance is completely different. Even if a Western wizard recites Eastern spells, he cannot use magic.

But that doesn't mean that both sides can't use each other's magic at all.

Because of the existence of magic patterns.

As long as you have magic power and draw the correct magic patterns with magic power, you can theoretically cast all magic.

Just like the Lake family's painting magic, it is completely cast by drawing magic patterns. There is no spell at all. All spellcasters can learn it if they want to.

Of course, this is not easy to do.

Connor understood what his grandfather meant. He wanted to take a look at this magical pattern, but he was wary of the mysterious power of the Far East.

"It's okay, Grandpa." Connor took out his wand and started to draw the "Eye Brush" directly in the air with the dyeing magic power. He said: "Actually, this magic pattern was simplified by me from a complex Far Eastern magic pattern. Yes, it can be regarded as a magic pattern created by myself. Even my father here would not recognize that this is the magic he left to me."

"Did you do it yourself?" Grandfather looked surprised.

"Of course! Don't you believe it? I'm pretty good too, okay? I studied very hard in school."

Grandfather opened his mouth and wanted to ask, after all these years, is the teaching level at Hogwarts already so high? But after thinking about it, I still didn’t ask.

On the other hand, Connor had completed his work, and an extremely complex three-dimensional image had been formed in front of his eyes. Connor asked his grandfather: "Can the machine in the magic pattern factory of this level be reproduced?"

My grandfather looked at the image suspended in the air with a fascinated look on his face, as if he was looking at some piece of art. He said: "It shouldn't be a big problem. It should probably be possible to use the 'backtracking' machine. If not, let the goblins do it." Just make the machine stronger, are you still going to apply this magic to your little card?"

Connor nodded and said confidently: "Of course, if it can be done, why not? Then we will update the version and we can make a lot of money again!"

Hearing this, my grandfather couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, you little devil, why do you think you are more greedy than a goblin?"

Seeing his grandfather happily studying the magic patterns, Connor rolled his eyes, coughed a few times on purpose and said, "Grandpa, I have something else I want you to take a look at."

Facing his grandfather's searching eyes, Connor took out a pair of homemade double-sided mirrors from his pocket.

Sure enough, my grandfather suddenly frowned and said, "The Knott family's double-way mirror? Did he give it to you?"

"Ahem, that double-sided mirror from the Knott family, now it belongs to the Lake family." Connor said without blushing or out of breath: "Look carefully, the magic pattern on it is simplified by me, and Professor Nott’s family tradition is completely different.”

Grandfather took the double-way mirror, examined it, and handed it back to Connor. He said, "It is indeed much simpler than their magic pattern, but this is still the Nott double-way mirror. We don't need it." Take advantage of them, why are you showing me this?”

Connor's eyes turned counterclockwise again, then tilted to the left, and said nonchalantly: "Can we mass-produce this thing?"

"What? You want to sell this thing?" Grandfather said loudly: "What's so good about this thing? Not many people bought this thing back then. What can this kind of thing be used for? Will we lose money? And if we sell it The Nott family will definitely settle accounts with us for this thing."

"There wasn't the kind of machine in the factory before. Besides, times have changed. Being unpopular before doesn't mean it's unpopular now. Moreover, Professor Nott has promised to give me this magic pattern. I will use it to You can do whatever you want." Connor said calmly.

"That guy Sark doesn't have much status in his family." Grandfather said angrily. After thinking about it, he asked in a low voice: "Do you really think this thing can make money?"

"Of course!" Connor slapped his chest and said, "Don't you still believe me? Don't worry, I won't be able to compensate you."

"emmmm but the production lines in the factory are no longer enough."

"Build a few more production lines, and it's not like we don't have money! It's only tens of thousands of galleons, and we can make it back in a few days."

"makes sense."

These unscrupulous big capitalists, old and young, were discussing without saying anything.

"But what I want to produce is not this kind of double-sided mirror." Connor took out the surveillance double-sided mirror from his pocket again. He said, "We can try to produce this kind of mirror first."

"What is this?" Grandpa picked up the small square mirror, and saw his old face appearing in the mother mirror placed on the table.

"This is a surveillance mirror. As you can see, it uses the principle of a double-sided mirror. But I made one of the mirrors into a small mirror, and it can easily do what a crystal ball can do. , The most important thing is that it is cheap, not everyone can predict magic." Connor talked freely.

Prophecy magic is a very profound and complex magic, and it requires a lot of talent. The simplest prophecy magic is that you can see things happening thousands of miles away through a crystal ball. The more powerful one can use the crystal ball to go back in time. The most powerful one is To predict the future.

But this monitor can easily achieve the effect of "clairvoyance" that requires prophecy. My grandfather was really surprised when he heard this. He smiled and said:

"Hahaha! Connor, you are so smart. Hahaha, those idiots from the Knott family have been sitting on this treasure for so many years without even knowing how to use it. They deserve to lose money!"

At this moment, my grandfather has never mentioned that the Knott family will cause trouble. Sure enough, in the face of absolute interests, who cares about your courtesy? You are really an evil capitalist.

I believe that even if the Knott family comes to cause trouble, Connor's grandfather will not give in.

Connor smiled modestly. For a person who came back to the present from a future full of monitors, thinking of this is indeed not something to be proud of.

Connor continued: "I also plan to integrate the shadow magic into this surveillance mirror, so that people can see the mirror image of the past. Isn't this another crystal ball retrospect magic, but I haven't thought about it yet. Grandpa, do you have any ideas on how to combine these two magics?"

"Backtracking?! Connor, you always surprise me! You are so smart!" Grandfather said with excitement. He thought for a moment and said: "This is not something that cannot be done. If it is completed This is another epoch-making product, and our Lake family will become very famous!"

My grandfather was so excited that he walked around the room. He said: "I believe that the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts will be very interested in our little product. This may save them a lot of trouble. This product will definitely be sold." In other countries, adding two production lines may not be enough, but I have already seen countless gold galleons waving at me!"

A person as indifferent to money as his grandfather was so excited. It seemed that the market here was bigger than Connor imagined.

Connor thought for a while and swallowed back what he still wanted to say. Forget it, let's do it step by step. You have to eat the food one bite at a time. You can't eat it and become a fat man.

"So grandpa, look at this production line."

"Add! Must add! No, I want to build two more factories! I'll inform Flora right now. It might be okay." Grandfather paused and fell silent. After coming over for a while, he said again: "Connor, you I haven’t seen your two aunts before, right?”

"Uh, yes, I heard mom say they are abroad..." Connor indeed had no impression of his two aunts, and only learned a little bit of information from Flora's usual words when writing letters.

"Eh~" Grandfather sighed in frustration and said, "I have always wondered if I am really an unqualified father...my daughter likes to run out one by one."

"I won't talk about your mother Flora. Your second aunt, Elena, was seduced by a French bastard a few years ago. She also ran away and never returned home. And I have the highest hopes. Yes, your aunt, Camilla, ran away to who knows where as soon as she graduated, and she even bothers to write a few more letters every year."

The more my grandfather talked, the more frustrated he became. At the end of the sentence, he slumped down on the chair with a look of despair.

"." Connor didn't dare to speak.

"But now, we are very short of manpower. I think I should be able to get your second aunt back to help." A cold light flashed in the grandfather's eyes: "No one can stop me."

Connor shuddered and mourned for his second uncle in the distance.

Seeing his grandfather like this, Connor thought of...

"My grandfather suddenly became very wealthy and looked like a domineering president." In just a few seconds, Connor even thought of the outline of the novel.

Connor really didn't realize it. In the past, my grandfather had always treated Flora with a bad face, thinking that he was a serious father figure. I didn't expect that you, a bad old man, turned out to be a daughter-in-law!

The serious father must have given birth to good girls. Thinking of my grandfather's children, each of them looked more disobedient than the last. They must have been spoiled since childhood!

Ever since Connor saw so much of his grandfather’s dark history, his original serious grandfather persona has almost completely collapsed.
