Jingle bells...

As Ivan walked in, the pleasant doorbell rang,

In the dark magic shop, Aisya supported her cheeks with her hands, sat leisurely at the counter and looked at the codex, and only then did she qup after noticing Ivan's unsightly face.

"How? Aren't you scared by the appearance of the Dementors? ”

Since Ivan was not injured, but only a little dust from climbing the attic, Althea did not notice anything unusual.

"No, I think it's probably scared by me..."Ivan rolled his eyes, a good Dementor, hiding in a box now.

"Really? Just don't have nightmares at night. Althea smiled, she didn't believe it, thinking that Ivan was terrified when he first saw the Dementors, it should be funny, but unfortunately she didn't see it.

"By the way, Mom, do you know what Dean Doggett has been through?" Ivan didn't bother on the subject, and asked instead.

Although he received the money and was still hesitant to reveal the experience of the battle just now, it didn't mean that he couldn't ask about other things.

"When did you become so interested in him, didn't you always dislike Dean Doggett before?" Althea closed the codex on the table and said suspiciously.

"It's just that I was a little surprised to hear someone call him a mad dog." Ivan spoke.

"Is he acting angry?" Althea wasn't surprised, just smiled.

"Almost—" Ivan thought of the old witch who had sold him Thestrals' blood, and Doggett almost knocked the other's head into the cauldron because of this.

After the contradiction with the goblin, Ivan didn't figure it out, he knew too little information, so it wasn't clear if it was because of the coward at the end, or because he was cheated with a lot of gold gallons when he was playing cards with the stall owner goblin.

Althea thought for a moment, then said.

"I don't know much about this, except that he was dismissed from St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries more than a decade ago because of something."

"Then Doggett went into Tumbledown Alley and got into a lot of trouble by blowing off a wizard's arm with a spell over a trivial matter, and everyone started calling him that."

More than ten years ago... Wasn't Doggett only about thirty years old when he became the deputy director of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries?

Ivan was speechless, remembering the photos and medals he had seen at Doggett's house, and it was hard to imagine how this guy had come to this point.

Then Ivan tapped sideways to ask for Doggett's information, except for knowing that Gert seemed to be removed from his family's name, the rest were some trivial things.

Seeing that he really couldn't ask anything, Ivan turned his voice and chatted about gossip information,

"Mom, how did you and Dean Doggett meet, I think he seems to like you very much..."

"He likes himself more than he likes me!" Althea replied angrily, and then looked suspiciously at the potion bag that Ivan was holding in his hand.

"How much did you charge him today?"

Althea's gaze became more and more dangerous, as she realized that Ivan had not returned empty-handed.

"It's just a few dozen gold galleons borrowed." Ivan said weakly, and then showed the bracelet hanging on his left hand before Althea had a seizure.

"I thought it might do a little bit, so I bought it at the Wizard's Market and paid thirty-five gold gallons. There seems to be an ancient magic text on it, you can see if you can fix it, or if you can parse it out. ”

Althea took the bracelet off Ivan's left hand, and after looking at it carefully for a while, she couldn't take her eyes off it.

"How? No loss, right? Ivan had always been haunted by this, and he wondered if he had been cheated, for the short wizard had been smiling happily when he had left the stall.

"This bracelet will break if you use it again at most.." Althea quickly saw it, and then continued.

"However, some of the magic texts on this are not even recorded by me here, and they have high research value, and after analyzing the meaning of these magic texts, we may be able to repair it."

"Thirty-five gold galleons can be bought, which means that you are very lucky." Althea praised.

"Magical arrangement? What is that? Ivan remembered the wand in his hand, and the storage box containing the Dementors, on which the inscriptions seemed to be arranged in a certain way.

Althea didn't hide it either, and opened her mouth to explain.

In general, the essence of a magic item shop is the number of magic characters that are parsed, and the formula for arranging the magic texts that you know.

The former is the foundation of everything, but if you want to release the magic power, you still have to rely on a specific arrangement of magic words.

Generally, magic items are made with magic inscriptions engraved on the inside of the item, and if someone tries to parse it, there is a possibility of damage.

After all, every new magic formula is a time-consuming and painstaking research and exploration by the maker, and it is very precious.

But there are exceptions to everything, and those post-processed magic items are inconvenient to hide, for example, when transforming the wand, it is impossible to disassemble the wand, and it can only be burned on the surface, at most the arrangement of the magic text is encrypted to a certain extent, increasing the difficulty of cracking.

After getting some new magic texts, Althea was in a good mood, and she didn't even care too much about Ivan borrowing money to buy a lot of things and coming back.

After eating a sumptuous dinner together, Aisya returned to the work area with the bracelet as soon as possible, ready to analyze the meaning of the magic script, and told Ivan that in the past two days, he could prepare to learn some basic knowledge of the magic script arrangement.

Returning to his room alone, Ivan placed the potion he had purchased, and then continued to practice calling the gods.

In the previous two battles, Ivan had discovered that this bloodline magic consumed too much mana, especially when it was materialized and regained after being hit hard.

As a result, it will not be used a few times in a battle, and Ivan can only hope that after the level of the Divine Guardian is raised, the consumption of mana will be less.

However, after practicing for a while, Ivan found that the growth of proficiency was slow and almost stagnant, and it seemed that he still had to find a Dementor to practice.

Ivan also remembered at this time, there seemed to be some ancient magic texts on the box where Doggett contained the Dementors, and he could take them over and study them when the time came.

At the same time, Ivan was also struggling with whether he needed to tell Althea about the Wizarding Market, because he always felt that Doggett was not very reliable.

What can be said, but how to say it?

Fortunately, Ivan didn't have to worry about it soon, because after a day or two, Doggett's great achievements had already spread in Tumbledown Alley, and even Althea, who often stayed in the work area to study new magic texts, heard the news...
