Chapter 676: Gift-giving
The movement outside has nothing to do with Alan for the time being.
At this time, on the top floor of the Ravenclaw Tower, Allen, who had been in this room for most of the day, put away the Mithril wand in front of him that had not yet been added to the core of the wand, and then stretched out his finger to point to the molten gold crucible that was being burned red, and the melted liquefied Mithril flew out of it and suspended in front of him, at first it had no shape, and then it writhed and turned into a small human finger with a metallic luster, which was a little duller after carving the ancient magic script, but it was just the magic fluctuations that it emitted could make the keen wizard perceive the power contained in it。
This Mithril finger, which can break demons by contact and can charm magical beasts three times a day, is ready, but thinking of the next trip, Alan can't help but feel embarrassed in his heart, "This finger can only be regarded as compensation, doesn't the growth wand and potions seem a little little......?
Alan cheered for himself, but when he thought that a few days had passed, in addition to sending a letter to the other party after resurrecting Luna, roughly explaining the reason, and telling him that Luna was basically safe and sound, and would visit him when the matter was dealt with, he had actually been borrowing the matter of the Ministry of Magic to evade the matter, delaying the time to apologize to the other party and explain- Although in essence, he didn't say a word and got rid of Xenophilius's little finger to save Luna, and the other party must be willing to know the truth, but thinking that when he went to Durmstrang as an exchange student this semester, Xenophilius explained to Luna that if he had bad intentions about Luna, let Luna cast a curse on himself, which made Allen, who was originally cheering for himself, sigh again and let out a sigh.
Looking up at himself in the small silver mirror used as a prophecy for divination, Alan couldn't help but shout to himself with some grievance: "I'm still a child!"
But it's always useless to complain, Alan put the potion and wand he made in advance into the pre-equipped gift box, and put the gift box into his Traceless Stretching Spell waist bag, and then walked downstairs to try to find his mother, he felt that it was really best to have his mother accompany him in this situation, he just had to stand aside and bow his head and admit his mistake, presumably with the company of his elders, it should be okay to settle the loss of Xenophilius - at least he shouldn't beat himself directly because he suddenly became a grandfather......
Passing by the training room downstairs, hearing the movement inside, Alan couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, after knowing the gap between his strength and Luna, Penelope has been pestering Luna for special training for her during this time, the inner contradictions and depression of the two girls Alan is not unaware, but now Allen's situation makes him too late to solve this matter and make up for the damage he caused to them - and Helena's matter has not been solved.
As a result, when he went down to the first floor, Alan learned that his mother went shopping with Daisy and Fleur to Diagon Alley because of the busy days ago, and looked at Hermione who had a pile of things in front of him, and Allen's guilt made him teleport to the Ministry of Magic in a few words, and he didn't want to disturb his mother's shopping journey, so he chose his father as an alternative.
Alan knocked on the door of the minister's office, and when he saw Alan, Owen Harris, who was busy, waved his hand, and ordered John Barcelona, who was reporting, to exit the room, and he poured a cup of tea for Alan in a good mood, and asked, "Finally willing to come out, how can you have time to come to the Ministry of Magic today?"
"Father, I would like to ask you to accompany me to see Luna's father, Mr. Xenophilius Lovegood. "I think in this case we should officially invite him into the Ravenclaw Tower." ”
"Oh, go and visit Mr. Lovegood. Mr. Owen Harris nodded approvingly, "Luna paid a great price to save you, and it is only right that Luna should visit his house. ”
"Besides, father, here's what happened...... Alan said with Alain, "not just to thank Luna for saving me, but because I cut off his little finger and had to make amends—and Luna had to be truthful about who she was, and he didn't know the specifics yet......"
Despite his embarrassment, Alan told him why he wanted to visit Mr. Xenophilius Lovegood this time, so that his father, who had agreed to accompany him, could also be prepared.
Owen Harris, who had been smiling all the time, heard his youngest son's description, and a gentle smile suddenly froze on his face, and the next moment he smiled even more kindly, "Alan, it occurred to me that since I am going to invite Mr. Lovegood into the tower, then I have to go to Diagon Alley to find your mother in order to hold a welcome ceremony for Luna's father, and Fleur They also have to notify everyone to meet officially, otherwise our Harris family is rude, so I can't accompany you to visit Xenophilius?" Mr. Lovegood, please bring my greetings and greetings, and we will meet in the evening directly in the tower. ”
"Huh?" Alan watched his father, who was sitting in the chair, get up cleanly, and realized that the grandson wanted to run away......
"Go quickly, go quickly, don't delay, it's rude to be a guest at someone else's house too late. Owen Harris interrupted Allen who was about to speak, and pushed the chair straight with due etiquette, and then suddenly apparitioned out of his minister's office and disappeared without a trace.
"I'll wait until I get to the place and tell him the purpose!" Alan had to step into the shadows and leave the room, holding back his swearing.
On the hill in the village of Autery-St. Cachpol, a strange house stands under a blue sky, with huge black columns that look like castles in wizards' chess, and Xenophilius Lovegood has been waiting for news at his home since he received Allen's letter, and he has not gone to St. Mungo's hospital or television station.
Teleporting to the door of Lovegood's house, Alan put a packaged TV set at his feet, then reached out and grabbed the eagle-shaped knocker, knocked three times on the heavy black door, and with the sound of impatient footsteps inside, the door opened in less than ten seconds.
"How is Luna now?" Xenophilius, who had dark circles under his eyes, asked first, without waiting for Alan to open the corners of his mouth and prepare to say hello. His long, marshmallow-like blonde hair was dirty and messy, and it was clear that he hadn't bothered to take care of himself at all these days, which made him look a little as crazy and dazed as he had been a few years before.
"She's all right, Mr. Lovegood. Alan was disrupted by the other party's impatience, and hurriedly told the other party the news that Luna was safe, but he didn't know what to say for a while.
Alan Harris couldn't help but look at Xenophilius Lovegood and was silent for a moment, Alan felt that the air was full of embarrassment, so he bent down a little stiffly and picked up the TV and the gifts placed on it, and slowly handed it to Mr. Lovegood—Allen's rather villainous black robe, the bright yellow wrapper in his arms, and the visual conflict caused by his slightly sluggish movements made him look a little crazy and dazed.
