Chapter 66： Busy summer vacation

As expected, Ivan was very busy throughout the summer.

At four o'clock in the morning on the first day of the holiday, the domestic elf Dobby rushed to the Ai Wen home. As in the previous Hogwarts or Malfoy home, he began to consciously pick up the housework.

At six o'clock, Mrs. Mason got up early to get ready to work, but found that the breakfast was ready, the **** was cleaned up, the floor, glass and furniture were cleaned up, and even the lawn in the garden was neatly trimmed.

It was incredible. She ran upstairs and asked Ai Wen what was going on.

After figuring out what happened, Avon had to tell his mother that it was all magical.

Although it took a lot of tongues, but until the end, Mrs. Mason did not fully believe him. She really knows her son too well, and Ai Wen can't take the initiative to do housework, especially at four or five o'clock in the morning.

Seeing his mother’s skeptical look, Ai Wen smiled.

When she left her room, Ai Wen immediately summoned Dobby and told the other party that she would not need to do this again in the future, but the effect did not seem very good.

Dobby looked at the big eyes like two light bulbs and looked at Ai Wen pitifully. He repeatedly asked if he had not done anything. After Ai Wen said more than ten times, he suddenly burst into tears and doubted. Ai Wen wants to drive him away.

In the end, Avon had to turn to comfort him.

Through this incident, Ivan found that trying to convince a house elf to reduce the workload is simply asking for trouble.

Fortunately, the Hogwarts Magic has a lot of work, otherwise he really doesn't know how to deal with a "workaholic" house elf.

Unexpectedly, the sales of newspapers during the summer vacation are not much less than when they were in school.

Even without Lockhart’s photos and novels, Ai Wen’s “I and the Serpent in Hogwarts” have aroused great interest.

In addition to the little wizards, many adult wizards also began to subscribe to the newspaper. At first, they wanted to see content related to the Chamber of Secrets and the Snake Monster, but they were later attracted to other articles in the newspaper. Most people thought that these articles were very interesting.

This is mainly due to the help of thousands of ghosts all over the UK, led by Nick, who is almost headless. They are now the main source of news for the newspapers. The ghosts are twenty-four hours of sleeplessness and a unique perspective different from human beings. The article provides a lot of interesting news articles and unknown secrets.

In the next few days, the success of the newspaper caused a large number of owls to fly home. This frightened Mrs. Mason. In order not to worry her mother, Ai Wen finally had to change the address to Hogwarts, so that more than every day. Collect and organize and send it to yourself.

Due to the enthusiasm of readers and ghosts, manuscript editing and review work is becoming more and more arduous.

Aiwen originally planned to come to help everyone, but the Weasley family went to Egypt in the second week of the summer vacation because of the "Prophet's Daily" annual Golden Plus Award. By the way, they visited their eldest son Bill. I have to wait until the summer vacation is about to end.

Hermione then followed her parents to France. Although she did not have a few articles on the review, all other work was on Avon.

Harry and Colin came over and helped a few times, but the effect was very limited.

Compared to the complicated word processing work, they are more inclined to discuss the recent Quidditch League, summer homework or the topic related to Sirius Black's jailbreak, and the two of them only visited during the first few days of the summer vacation. Ai Wen.

Soon after, Colin went to his hometown in the country to spend the summer with his father and brother.

Harry had to be unlucky. Since Ron had called the Dursleys on the fifth day of the summer vacation, he was confined and refused to go out.

Even Ai Wen personally visited in the past, they did not let him into the house.

Just as Avon was preparing to rescue Harry, Harry asked Hedwig to send him a letter. Harry means that he himself is the best to be honest in the near future. Don't provoke the aunt to be angry, if he wants Vernon to sign his visit to Hogmund's parental consent.

From then on, Ai Wen could not let Dobby send some food to Harry every day, so that the Dursleys would not starve him.

Although the manuscript editing and processing work is heavy, Ai Wen can handle it alone.

In his spare time, he has to buy more magic books related to the magic potion, brain closure and protection spells. He can afford to sell all his savings. .

The casting of the protection of the curse requires a wand. According to the relevant regulations on the minor restraint of the underage wizard, the underage wizard does not allow magic to be used outside the school. Everyone's wand will be tracked by the Ministry of Magic, so Ai Wen is mastering the theoretical point of this spell. After that, focus on the brain closure and magic potion.

As a magical art that resists the penetration of the outside world, brain closure can block the brain against magical invasion and influence.

The trick to cast this spell is to empty the brain so that others can't get memories from your mind through magic. Masters of cerebral occlusion, like Snape, can even make up a false memory to deceive the intruder.

Ivan can't do this either. In fact, he encountered problems when he got started. He found it difficult to empty his brain.

There are always some weird ideas in his head, or unconsciously studying a magic puzzle. After trying for a long time, he had to use cerebral occlusion as a long-term practice project, hoping to master the spell before the end of the second school year.

In addition to the brain closure and the protection of the curse, Ai Wen found that the magic potion was not the same as what he originally thought. This kind of medicine does not help the wizard to permanently increase the magic. It only increases the magic level for a period of time, assisting the user in fighting or completing an esoteric magic.

Ai Wen thought about it. The magical potions that are so precious and lost because of the magic potion are just used to improve the endurance of a battle. It is too wasteful.

After turning over all the magic books he could buy, he finally decided to use it to help him complete the Animagus transformation.

Animagus is a high-deformation spell that turns the wizard into an animal. For most wizards, even adult wizards, this spell is extremely esoteric and dangerous, not to mention just like Ai Wen. A little wizard who is twelve years old.

In the process of Animagus, the practitioners are easily enchanted by various reasons, eventually leading to deformation failure or even death.

Therefore, the Ministry of Magic strictly controls this spell, requiring all Animagus's transformed animals and characters to be registered in the Ministry of Magic's Abuse Magic Office. There is a person responsible for monitoring the entire deformation process. There are only seven people in Animagus who have successfully registered in the 10th century.

Of course, this is certainly not the total number of masters of the Animagus morphing wizard.

Ai Wen knows that there are many Animags that have never been registered, such as the little dwarf Peter who has been swaying in front of him and the little Sirius Black who is about to debut. They all completed the transformation in the student era. In view of this, Ai Wen, who has the help of the magic potion, decided to complete his own Animagus this summer.

He has studied it carefully. To become an Animagus, in addition to the strong knowledge of deformation theory, it requires a lot of magic support.

Theoretical knowledge is not a problem. In the last semester, Ivan had specially asked Tom Riddle for the deformation of Animagus, and he got a lot of help from him. Although Voldemort is not very good in character, but in the mastery of magic knowledge, it is comparable to Dumbledore.

The trouble is the magic that needs to be consumed in the first deformation process. From human to animal, it needs a lot of magic support. According to the different physical constitution of the deformer, it is often one to five times that of an adult wizard. This is also the failure of most wizards. The main cause of deformation.

The usual practice is to purchase a large amount of supplemental magical supplement.

The price of this syrup is very expensive, and the effect is quite general. It is far from the effect of the medicinal agent that greatly enhances its magic level.

Therefore, with the help of the magic potion, Ai Wen's Animagus deformation has almost no problem.

He tried to practice many times and gradually mastered the trick. After more than a month of preparation, in the fifth week of the summer vacation, Ai Wen shut himself in the room and was ready to try the first deformation. He was more than just outside his door, without his consent, anyone It is not allowed to come in.
