Hogwarts: The opening frog brings back the Dragon Destroying Crystal

After saying goodbye to the Grangers, Lorne led the curious Hermione through the wall and into Diagon Alley.

This was Hermione’s second time in Diagon Alley, the last time she came with her parents, so she didn’t get a good stroll.

And this time she will be working here for two months, so there is time to hang out.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you to the store first.”

With that, Lorne led Hermione into the potions shop that had just been renovated.

Because it was just opened, the wizards on the road looked at the newly opened shop with great curiosity.

As the two walked into the store, Hermione saw a large pile of books on the table.

She walked over and picked up a copy and glanced at it.

“You’re going to study alchemy?”

Hermione asked curiously.

These books were used to make alchemy props, and she had seen about them in the library.

However, alchemy props are very difficult to practice, especially the depiction of inscriptions, so there are only a few famous alchemists.

And some people who are not good at alchemy can only make some magic props to maintain their lives.

The former owner of the shop was a wizard who studied alchemy, and he made magic items that didn’t seem to be of much use, such as a self-watering kettle.

For wizards, this is just a spell, so why spend money on one?

“After all, this store can’t just sell potions!”

Lorne explained to Hermione.

If you only rely on selling potions, it is estimated that you may not be able to sell a bottle of potions in a day.

For example, the potion of the raw bone spirit, not someone will break their bones every day.

And for high-grade potions such as compound potions, most wizards will only be curious and will not buy them, because they are too expensive.

“I’m going to learn with you too!”

Miss Hermione said.

……

“You are responsible for the location of the cashier first.”

After waiting for Hermione to familiarize herself with the contents of the store, Lorne took her behind a counter and said to her.

Next to this counter, there are many books, most of which are Lockhart’s works.

After all, those interesting biographies are always the best concoction to pass the boring time.

And there are two more bedrooms in the store, one for her and Lorne.

Miss Hermione was very happy with her working environment.

The opening time has started since the morning, and by noon, only a few customers have come in to take a look, but they have not bought any potions.

A big part of it comes in out of curiosity.

“There are so few people!”

Hermione sat behind the desk, holding her chin in her hands and looking at the Lizzie Bookstore opposite.

In the bookstore, many wizards were buying books.

In contrast, their side is very deserted.

“Isn’t a quiet environment better for studying?”

Lorne sat in the corner, holding a quill pen in his hand, recording what he had learned about alchemy, as well as the meaning of most of the runes of Lune.

The complexity of these ancient magic patterns is far beyond his imagination, because usually a magic pattern represents many meanings, and most of the meanings will not have any connection.

It’s hard for people to document it.

Even Miss Hermione felt dizzy after studying for a while, and quickly ran to the counter to read the biography.

She is now holding a copy of “Wandering with Werewolves”, turning a page from time to time.

The midday sun is not too dazzling, and the soft glow through the window scattered on the words of the books, giving people a drowsy feeling.

Looking at Hermione, she couldn’t help but yawn, and sleepy teardrops slowly slipped from the corners of her eyes.

“Hello, do you have any bones here?”

At this moment, a middle-aged wizard in a black robe walked in with his arm covered, and Lorne, whose sense of smell had been strengthened, immediately smelled the blood on the other party.

He got up and walked in front of Hermione, silently blocking the spirited Hermione behind.

“Yes, a bottle of ten gold gallons!”

Lorne said with a smile on his face.

It is impossible not to do the business sent to the door, no matter where he came from as a wizard.

“Bring me a bottle!”

Saying that, he took out ten gold gallons from his pocket and put them on the table.

Is it the wizard over there in Overturned Alley?

Lorne already had a guess in his mind.

At this time, Hermione, who was already familiar with the inside of the store, brought over a bottle of potion and placed it on the table.

The middle-aged wizard hidden under the hood looked at the two little wizards in charge of this shop in front of him with some curiosity.

He had been in Diagon Alley for so long, and it was the first time he had seen this situation.

Coming out to work at such a young age?

After taking the Living Bone Spirit, he turned away without much thought, without even checking if the potion was effective.

Anyway, the shop can’t run right here.

“Something is wrong with his arm…”

After watching the black-robed wizard leave, Hermione poked Lorne with her hand and whispered.

“It should be the wizard who came out of the overturned alley, after all, some wizard fights often occur there.”

Lorne held the little finger that poked him, turned his head and touched the girl’s little head.

“If you have time to think about that, you might as well study with me.”

Miss Hermione didn’t seem to be so motivated to study since she was on vacation, and when she saw half of the alchemy book, she ran to read the biography.

“The knowledge inside is too profound to understand at all!”

Hermione couldn’t help but grumble.

Not to mention the meaning of various ancient inscriptions, that is, the complex techniques in it can make her dizzy.

“You should start with the basics…”

Lorne pinched the tip of her small nose helplessly.

Who let her pick up Nick Mailer’s book as soon as she came up, even Lorne looked groggy.

“Okay, okay, you collect the money, and then read the biography.”

“I still have to finish reading the basics today, and I’ll teach you in the evening.”

With that, Lorne touched Hermione’s smooth forehead, and despite Miss Beaver’s crimson cheeks, turned around and returned to the corner.

He now has a general idea of learning alchemy.

It’s just that magic is used to depict ancient inscriptions on some props to activate the meaning of the inscriptions.

Maybe try to make a magic ring tonight?

Lorne thought.
