After getting five hundred Galleons from Lockhart's hands again, Ivan became extremely busy for the next few days.

Except for the daily classes and the strange characters given by the system, the rest of the time is spent in the room to study the new magic script arrangement formula.

A protective ring with an instantaneous Iron Charm alone wouldn't be enough for Lockhart.

Fortunately, although the time was short, the funds were extremely abundant, allowing Ivan to try and make mistakes and put all the ideas in his mind into action without worrying about the wear and tear of materials.

In just a few days, Ivan's alchemy has improved by leaps and bounds again.

Every once in a while, the beep of increased proficiency rang in Ivan's head.

In addition, the other good news is about the magic trick workshop,

The House War between Gryffindor and Slytherin a few days ago had instead advertised George and Fred's joke merchandise.

So for a while, their big dung eggs, skipping candy, smoke and fire, and automatic quills were selling extremely hot, and George and Fred were so busy all day and night that they couldn't stop at all, and even discussed with Ivan about expanding their staff.

"Recruit some people to help? That's not bad! Ivan thought about it for a moment and did not refute their proposal.

Big dung eggs and skipping candy are just simple magic gadgets, and the difficulty of making them is not high.

As long as the method is told, a young wizard in the upper grades can easily make it.

In addition, Hogwarts is full of students, which is easy to pass through, and it doesn't cost a few gold Galleons at the end of a school year, which is much cheaper than modifying a corresponding magic machine.

As for the leakage of the production method will be imitated by others or something, the three of them don't care at all, as long as some high-end knowledge is protected, it is impossible for ordinary people to compete with them for business.

再者，对于一个笑话商店来说，最重要的是能够源源不断的推出颇具创意的新产品，来保持新奇性。

At this point, few can compare to George and Fred...

After discussing the expansion of manpower with the two, Ivan bluntly said that he had been working on some magic props recently, so he might not be able to help them.

George and Fred were very curious, and Ivan didn't reveal much information, just said that they would know about it in the first half of the month.

Two weeks passed in a flash,

Staying in the room of requirement, Ivan looked at the gloves, cloak, and ring in front of him, and breathed a sigh of relief, finally finishing these things before the appointed time.

[Ding, after a period of practice, your alchemy proficiency has improved, the current level 4 (2710/4000)]

Looking at the long proficiency progress bar of alchemy, Ivan only felt that his scalp was numb, and he didn't know when he would be able to raise alchemy to level seven and make the magic stone.

However, although alchemy has not been upgraded, the magic formula that has been studied these days is real.

"It just looks too cheap." Ivan touched his chin and looked at the three ordinary magic items in front of him, and muttered to himself.

It really doesn't look like what a 2,000 Galleon thing should look like.

Thinking of this, Ivan continued to transform again.

For example, the surface of the ring is plated with a layer of gold lacquer, and a large sapphire is added in the middle.

This doesn't improve the effect of the item, but at least it looks like it's worth a lot of money, doesn't it?

Ivan nodded with satisfaction, and then transformed the cloak to make it a golden red color, and added some bells and whistles to the surface of the glove...

With all this in mind, Ivan took these things to Lockhart.

Entering Lockhart's office, Ivan realized that he was writing something on a piece of paper with a quill pen.

Ivan looked closer and read the title on the parchment.

"Dueling Club?"

"Yes, it's the Dueling Club!" Lockhart threw away the quill, blew on the ink that had not yet dried, and said triumphantly.

"I managed to convince Dumbledore, the old slipper, to give me a platform to show my strength... Oh no, I mean the opportunity to teach you..."

Lockhart changed his words in time, then turned his head to look at Ivan, and said with a hint of antiquity in eagerness. "Hals, have you made all the things for me?"

"Of course." Ivan nodded, and tossed a golden ring to Lockhart.

"Yes, it fits my temperament very well!" Lockhart put the ring on his hand, looked at the bright red cloak and the gloves painted with brilliant patterns, and said with great satisfaction.

"What's the use of all these things?" Lockhart looked at Ivan.

"The ring, cloak, and gloves are solidified with the Disarming Charm, the Iron Armor Charm, and the Petrification Charm, respectively." Ivan opened his mouth to explain, then added.

"You only need to input the mana to release it, so you don't have to chant spells."

Lockhart's eyes lit up, in that case, if he was well disguised enough, wouldn't he be able to tell the outside world that he would have high-end spellless casting skills.

Lockhart tried to point his wand at a porcelain bottle in the distance, and a gray-white magical light flashed, and the surface of the porcelain bottle instantly solidified and turned into an eerie gray.

That's exactly what the petrification spell does...

Seeing this scene, Lockhart's heart became excited for a long time,

It's been a long time since he's unleashed a spell in a long time.

Each time, for unknown reasons, the effect of magic deviated from his expectations, and the Oblivion Charm that he often used became stronger and stronger.

This strange situation also made Lockhart scratch his head, and he even asked some professionals, but they could not give accurate answers, and could only guess that it was due to the gradual neglect of magic practice.

Lockhart didn't believe it, and there were many people who neglected the practice of magic, and he was the only one who could have this strange situation.

And for Lockhart, it was impossible to increase the time spent practicing magic,

He is very busy all day long, not only need to reply to fans, but also have to constantly collect adventure stories, publish books, and maintain his popularity, how can he have this time?

Now these magic props made by Ivan are undoubtedly the perfect solution to the problem that he can't release magic.

"But how are there only three spells?" Lockhart smacked his mouth and said with some disappointment.

He felt that as a Defence Against the Dark Arts master, he would always feel that it would be a detriment to his style in the upcoming dueling club, without dozens or hundreds of spells.
