Chapter 33: The Gamble with Malfoy

In the blink of an eye, the time has come to November, and the weather is gradually getting colder.

Ivan's level of potions, in the daily routine academic discussions with Hermione, is also close to the level of level four, and it is estimated that it will not take long to reach the minimum level of boiling bloodline fusion potions.

In order to avoid the dilemma of being reincarnated by the dementor to search for his memories, Ivan also took the time to sneak into the forbidden book area again, and used the academic points accumulated in the past few weeks to raise the brain occlusion to level 2 in a few nights.

It's just that Ivan hasn't had time to be happy, and he has a hard time making a lot of potion materials needed to boil the bloodline fusion potion.

He only had three gold galleons, fifteen silver sicos, and twenty bronze nats, and even if he found an opportunity to sneak through the secret passages to Hogsmeade Village, he probably wouldn't be able to buy all the materials he needed.

And it was thanks to the letter from his mother, whom he had never met, otherwise, he wouldn't even have a gold galleon in his hand.

"You say, is there any way to make a lot of gold gallons in a month?" On the way to the auditorium with everyone, Ivan asked coldly how to make money.

"How about we rob Gringotts? Remember to add me when the time comes. Ron joked.

"Come on, you're going to be thrown into Azkaban by the goblins who guard there before you can do anything." Hermione rolled her eyes and spoke, and then explained to a few people why Gringotts claimed to be the safest place in the entire wizarding world.

In addition to the various tight defenses, it is said that there is a dragon guarding in front of the vault...

Harry and Ron listened to it with relish, but Ivan, who knew everything inside, complained in his heart.

Come on, this safest place has just been broken into by Voldemort's possessed Chino this year, and it will be breached by you again in a few years.

Spit and complain, Gringotts' defense system is still a nightmare copy for Ivan now, and it is only because Ron can make such an unreliable suggestion.

"By the way, Ivan, what do you want so many gold gallons for?" Harry asked curiously.

"I took a little from the vault before I came to Hogwarts, and if you don't need much, I can actually borrow it from you."

Saying this, Harry enthusiastically grabbed a dozen gold galleons from the pocket of his wizard's robe and put them in front of Ivan, saying that it was not enough for him to put a lot of them in the dormitory...

Harry's arrogant behavior blinded Ivan's eyes, and Ivan, who had read the original book, understood that the "little" gold galleons that Harry said about taking out of the vault were probably hundreds!

Even if there were more potions needed to make the Bloodline Fusion Potion, these Golden Gallons were more than enough, and even Harry took out and put it in front of him was almost enough.

Looking at Harry's sincere eyes, Ivan was somewhat moved, knowing that they realized that it was only half a semester now, and Harry's behavior was definitely righteous!

Of course, this also has to do with Harry's lack of money...

"Forget it, I'll just talk about it, no amount of gold gallons can be spent here." Despite the fact that he could now get enough gold galleons with a single stretch of his hand, Ivan eventually shook his head and politely declined Harry's offer.

In the eyes of many people, this may be stupid, stretching out your hand to achieve your goal, no matter how much gold you borrow, you can return it in the future, and Harry won't even care if he doesn't pay it back.

But Ivan didn't think so, in his opinion, accepting Harry's kindness now means that he owes a favor, which is not a good thing for Ivan, who doesn't want to get too involved in Dumbledore's layout.

Besides, there is still some time, and when there is no way, it is not too late to borrow money from Harry.

At Ivan's deliberate change of course, Harry quickly forgot about it, and the group began to talk about the upcoming Quidditch match.

As the trump card that Gryffindor House has always hidden, Harry is not as confident as everyone imagined, but very apprehensive.

He couldn't imagine how disappointed Wood would have been if he had lost a match for Gryffindor because he couldn't catch the Snitch on the field, and Gryffindor hadn't won a Quidditch trophy for a long time.

Ivan cheered Harry with confidence, for Harry's flying talent, I'm afraid no one knows better than him, plus Harry's own good luck, unless it's a plot kill, it's difficult for Gryffindor to lose.

In view of Harry's righteousness, Ivan was even more prepared to help him keep an eye on Chino on the day of the match to avoid accidents.

Before the group knew it, they were in the Great Hall of Hogwarts, and Ivan was about to enjoy lunch at the Gryffindor table when he heard Malfoy at the next table taunting Gryffindor's defeat by Slytherin for several years in a row.

Angry that Ron wanted to beat up Malfoy, Harry and Hermione finally stopped Ron and got into a conflict in the Great Hall, and no amount of house points was enough to deduct it.

However, while the three of them were arguing, Ivan took the initiative to walk towards Malfoy.

At the Slytherin table, Malfoy, who was still making a lot of nonsense, saw Ivan's approaching figure, and the smile on his face turned to disgust for a while, with a hint of fear.

After all, some time ago, the news that Ivan had killed the troll was still spreading in the academy, and even Professor McGonagall admitted it himself, and Malfoy was afraid that Ivan had come to trouble him.

Fortunately, Malfoy soon realized that this was the Slytherin table, and Ivan was unlikely to contradict himself here, so he had some courage and rebuked in a fierce voice.

"Hals, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I just want to make a bet with you." With a smile on his face, Ivan took out three gold Galleons and placed them on the table.

"Bet on Harry to catch the Snitch and win the game!" Ivan said.

Malfoy looked at the three gold Galleons on the table and didn't directly agree.

This small amount of money is nothing to Malfoy, but he still remembers the experience of being cheated by Ivan before, so Malfoy has to wonder if Ivan will have some conspiracy.

As for Harry, Gryffindor's secret weapon, it had been exposed during these days of training, at least Malfoy knew about it.

"If you don't gamble, forget it, I originally wanted to make a fortune with the only amount of money." Ivan shook his head indifferently, put away the golden galleons and prepared to leave.

"Wait..."

Malfoy was a little confused about Ivan's attitude, but he heard a message from Ivan's words that he was interested in...
