Master Trainer from Hogwarts

Chapter 18 Shabby House
Because the youngest daughter, Ginny, was still at home, Mrs. Weasley offered to leave after sitting for a while, and Mr. Stuart got up and said, "Please wait."

Then he took Allen to the study on the second floor, "I have asked a private detective to search for the sketch of the murderer I found yesterday. Because it has an accurate appearance, the result will probably be available the day after tomorrow. Can this witch be trusted?"

Allen said with a smile, "How bad do you think a witch who can give birth to so many children and devote her whole life to her family? Besides, all her children are studying at Hogwarts."

Mr. Stuart was taken aback when he heard the words, "You are very thoughtful."

Then he took out a bag of coins from the desk drawer, about five gold Galleons and ten silver Sickles. He had a rough idea of ​​the prices in the wizarding world these days.

Taking Allen downstairs again, Mr. Stuart handed over the purse to Mrs. Weasley.

Before Mrs. Weasley could refuse, he said in advance, "Alan is very interested in magical animals and alchemy. This is a reserve fund. Please don't refuse."

Mrs. Weasley hesitated, then accepted the purse.

Allen breathed a sigh of relief. You must know that because of the small farmers' economy in the wizarding world, don't look at the Weasleys living in poverty, but many magical resources cannot be purchased with gold Galleons.

Even mid-level and above potions are already difficult to buy from shops.

Otherwise, with his current financial resources, he would have searched all the [Felix Elixir] on the market long ago, and he would not have to try his best to find a way to prepare the potion.

Because he wanted to learn the [Armor Curse] as soon as possible, Allen followed Mrs. Weasley to the shabby house.

The so-called 'shabby house' is the residence of the Weasley family, which has a history of hundreds of years.

Mrs. Weasley first took Allen and others back to Diagon Alley, and then borrowed the teleportation fireplace and Floo powder there to go home.

After a while of dizziness, Alan was even a little unsteady after landing. At this time, Freddy reached out to support him, "Is this your first time using Floo powder?"

Allen smiled sheepishly, "Yes, there is nothing so convenient in the world of ordinary people."

Then he asked Mrs. Weasley who arrived first, "Is there a teleportation fireplace and Floo powder, so I can come directly to the shabby house if I read the name correctly? I want to build a teleportation fireplace at home."

There was a smile on Mrs. Weasley's chubby face, "Of course, but like a private fireplace, there is usually an enchantment. If you want to teleport through Floo powder, you need a corresponding magic imprint, which is like a port key."

There was a flash of understanding in Allen's eyes, that's right, otherwise anyone could enter other people's homes through the fireplace, so no one would dare to build a fireplace.

Then he looked at the shabby house in front of him.The first floor is filled with a large number of tables and chairs, pots and pans, and all wooden furniture, which makes the small space look a bit cramped.

The wooden staircase in the center winds upwards. Allen walks out of the fireplace and looks out of the window. There are large wheat fields and vegetable gardens, and in the distance are lush forests and rolling mountains.

He looked curiously at Mrs. Weasley, "Madam, I read a space spell called the Untraceable Stretching Curse in the magic book, why don't you make this place bigger?"

Mrs. Weasley, who took out the towel from the side, paused, and then explained while wiping Alan's ashes, "Since you have seen the Untraceable Stretching Curse, you should have also seen the warning from the Ministry of Magic above."

"Yes." Allen was a little puzzled, "Why does the Ministry of Magic restrict ordinary wizards from using such an easy-to-use space technology?"

"Because it's dangerous." Mrs. Weasley looked at Allen with her brown eyes. The newly recruited magic apprentice in front of her was full of curiosity about magic, so she should fulfill her duties as a mentor.

"Expanding the space is not a simple matter. What is even more difficult is how to stabilize the space after expanding the space. This requires extremely advanced magic training and special magic materials, and ordinary wizards can't do it."

"As for why the shabby house doesn't use the traceless stretching spell..."

Ron on the side finally found the time to brag, and he said loudly, "Because the shabby house is built on the Untraceable Stretching Curse!"

Allen looked at the narrow room in front of him again, and he didn't see the traceless stretching spell cast at all.

Suddenly a guess appeared in my mind.

He stared wide-eyed and looked out of the window. The wheat in the farmland was lush and lush, the kettle in the vegetable garden was automatically irrigated, and there were the sounds of wild animals from the forest in the distance.

"The outside is also part of the shabby house!"

Mrs. Weasley smiled and said nothing.

Allen recovered from the shock, who would dare to tell himself that the Weasleys are poor?
No matter how poor the other party was, he was still a member of the 28 pure-blood wizard families who helped the British wizards win the 'War of Peace'.

At that time, the Ministry of Magic might not even exist, so Weasley's ancestors had already left an unimaginable wealth to their children and grandchildren.

Mrs. Weasley wiped the ashes off Allen's body, and saw that the other party had already taken out the notebook and the magic book.

Only then did I realize that Allen didn't just come to play with George and Fred, but came to ask himself about magic knowledge.

Mrs. Weasley couldn't hide her shock after hearing Alan ask about the knowledge of the rune, and then she asked Alan to perform the magic she had learned.

Seeing that Allen could use the [Levitation Curse] freely, she finally understood why Mr. Ollivander said today that the knowledge that Allen asked made him feel a little difficult, and why Allen was eager to seek a magic teacher.

"You are such a genius." Mrs. Weasley sighed, knowing that George and Fred beside her, who had been exposed to magic since childhood, are now only able to freely control the magic power in their bodies, and have not even learned a single spell.

On the one hand, it was because the two did not have their own wands before, and on the other hand, magic was still too dangerous for children.

She originally wanted Alan to master the low-level spells first, but she was worried that Alan might suspect that she didn't teach them seriously. After all, the other party's parents had paid Galleon in advance.

Moreover, a defensive spell like [Armor Curse] is less dangerous in itself, and it doesn't matter for Allen to learn it in advance.

She took the two brothers Alan and George up to the study on the sixth floor. As for Ron, he was still too young, so there was no need to rush to master the magic text knowledge.

Walking to the study room on the sixth floor, the room here also looked a bit cramped and smelled very dusty. It could be seen that the Weasleys of this generation were not wizards who were keen on studying magic.

Mrs. Weasley found a notebook from the bookshelf in the third row, wiped the dust on it, then walked up to the three of Allen, pulled over a table and blackboard, and asked Allen, "What do you think the runes are?"
