The first White Lord of Hogwarts
Chapter 13
“Owls, cats, and toads are three kinds of pets that little wizards can choose.”
Because he had enough money, Ivan chose to buy a cat and an owl as pets.
Owls are good companions for wizards. They have strange magic.
As long as you think of the name and appearance of the recipient, the owl can accurately deliver the letter to the recipient.
Of course, the premise is that there is no shielding spell around the recipient.
“”It’s so beautiful.”
Outside the pet shop, Hermione looked at the pure white snow owl in the cage through the glass, and the thought of buying it kept coming to her mind.
However, she had just spent a lot of Galleons on books, which made the financial situation of the little witch in her first year of school not optimistic.
“I still have a lot of Galleons on hand, you can exchange some with pounds from me.”
Ivan found out that Hermione wanted a pet and made this reasonable suggestion.
Although the two had only known each other for a short time, they had already regarded each other as their first friend in the wizarding world.
Hermione was not against helping each other.
“Forget it.”
Hermione hesitated for a long time, and finally shook her head:”In the first year, I plan to focus more on studying. Pets will distract me.”
She plans to adapt to life in Hogwarts first, and then consider the issue of pets.
“”Okay.”
Ivan walked into the Magical Creatures Shop. The shop was cast with a Retractable Charm, and the interior space was much larger than it looked from the outside.
But even so, the shop was still very crowded.
The walls were densely hung with cages, poisonous orange snails, giant turtles with gemstones on their shells, sleek and clever black mice, owls, ravens, cats of various colors, cats, shapeshifting rabbits, etc.
“Ahem.”
Ivan fanned his nose gently:”The smell here is really, ahem…”
Because a large number of animals are crowded here, the air is filled with all kinds of smells, which really puts a lot of pressure on people’s noses.
Hermione frowned, she looked at Ivan in agreement, and whispered:”The environment here is really bad.”
Fortunately, Ivan has a clear goal.
First-year students at Hogwarts cannot choose pets at will. After excluding the owls they already have and the toads that Ivan thinks are very anti-human, the two little witches walked straight to the cages where many cats were kept.
Ivan turned on his spiritual vision, which allowed him to better perceive the magical fluctuations emanating from the cats.
“Ivan, what do you think of it?”
Hermione pulled Ivan’s sleeve and pointed to a cage above.
Ivan looked up and saw a Persian long-haired cat with fluffy and soft ginger hair, bow legs, and obviously pigeon-toed feet.
In addition, it had a strange persimmon face, as if it had”hit its head against a brick wall.”
Seeing Hermione noticed it, the strange cat immediately looked at the little witch with its yellow eyes, shaking its big furry tail like a bottle brush, as if it was very eager to be favored by her.
“It’s beautiful isn’t it?”
“Uh…”
Ivan’s mouth twitched slightly. He really couldn’t understand the little witch’s aesthetic taste.
Because in his opinion, this strange Persian cat was so ugly that it was not an exaggeration to say that it lowered the overall appearance of cats.
However, Ivan did not refuse directly, but called the female clerk to ask about the specific situation of the cat.
The clerk told them that the cat was called Crookshanks and had been in the store for almost a year.
“It has some cat-like blood, but because of its strange appearance, customers are reluctant to buy it.
According to the saleswoman’s estimation, Crookshanks may be difficult to sell in one or two years.
“Oh, that’s too pitiful.”
Hermione really liked this big cat named Crookshanks.
When Ivan heard the name Crookshanks, he was completely sure of the other party’s identity. It was the birthday present Hermione bought in the third grade.
Ivan suggested that Hermione buy it.
He still suggested the same thing as before, to exchange pounds for some galleons from him.
If Hermione felt it was unfair, she could increase the exchange rate. Anyway, for Ivan, pounds could also buy things in the Muggle world.
“”Okay.”
Finally, under Ivan’s persuasion, Hermione bought Crookshanks.
There was no way, Hermione felt sorry for Crookshanks’ experience. He was so beautiful, why didn’t everyone like him?
In this regard, Ivan could only say:”As long as you like it.”
Then it was Ivan’s turn. He picked out a gray and white kitten from the pet cats.
The kitten looked less than two months old. From the perspective of bloodline, it was a bit like the ragdoll cat in Ivan’s previous life. It had sapphire eyes and exuded a magical halo that ordinary people could not see.
Ivan didn’t know what these lights meant, but among the many pet cats, its magic power was obviously stronger than that of other cats.
“How much is this puppet for?”
“Ragdoll?”
The female clerk didn’t know what the Ragdoll cat was. Ivan explained,”It’s a domestic cat bred by Americans around 1970. According to my understanding, this kind of cat has been introduced to Britain for less than ten years.”
“Sorry, I don’t quite understand what you mean.”
The wizarding world is closed to news, especially when it comes to changes in the Muggle world, few wizards would know too much.
The female clerk told Ivan that the ragdoll cat he was talking about was the offspring of a catkin in the store, just like Crookshanks.
Catkins are magical creatures, and if you want to keep them, you need to get approval from the Ministry of Magic.
“But this ragdoll, a ragdoll cat, is different from Crookshanks, and does not have much Kneazle bloodline.”
The female clerk said,”If you like it, I can sell it to you at a lower price.”
Obviously, in the female clerk’s opinion, although this cat is beautiful, it is not as good as Crookshanks in terms of price because of its thin Kneazle bloodline.
“Well, that’s it.”
In the end, Ivan spent nearly 30 Galleons in the Magical Animal Shop, 25 of which were used to buy Crookshanks, and the poor little guy was only worth 5 Galleons.
Ivan checked Yumi’s gender and found that she was a female cat.
Yumi was the name Ivan gave to the ragdoll cat. It came from a game Ivan played in his previous life, Magic Cat Yumi.
She didn’t have a magic book, but she had a master who could do magic.
