Hermione stared at Ivan in disgust, but wondered what the important thing Ivan was talking about.

Perhaps thinking that her gift was certainly not as valuable as Ivan's, Hermione relented after hesitating, but still emphatically said.

"Okay, I can take it out first, but you can't use the Dementor to take it out!"

"Don't worry, I definitely don't need to!" Ivan patted his chest and assured that he didn't mean to lie, because surprises are like that, and once they know, they are not enough surprises.

Hermione pulled out her wand from the black ribbon tied around her waist, waved it lightly in the air, and bits of fluorescent light erupted from the tip of the wand, and finally gradually transformed into a long strip of things, which became more and more solid under the guidance of the wand.

Nice magic trick, Ivan secretly admired in his heart, of course he could see that this was a trick, Hermione should have temporarily hidden the thing with a shrinking charm, and then used fluorescence to attract his vision to enlarge the thing.

However, seeing it didn't mean to debunk, Ivan still pretended to be interested, and watched Hermione conjure a brown scarf out of thin air.

"Is this for me?" Ivan saw that the scarf seemed to be a little different, not as delicate as the ones sold on the market, and even a little rough on the corners, so he looked at Hermione and guessed. "You knit it yourself?"

Hermione nodded shyly and whispered. "Mrs. Weasley taught me this summer, and I saw that you don't have a scarf yet, so ......"

Hermione didn't continue, looking at Ivan expectantly and with some apprehension.

She hesitated for a long time to choose a Christmas gift this year, originally wanted to give a book as usual, but always felt that this would not help Ivan, she wanted her gift to be more meaningful, so she knitted a scarf by herself.

"This is the best Christmas present I've ever received, can you put it on for me?" Ivan looked at her with a smile.

Hermione nodded, took a deep breath, and stepped forward with her blushing cheeks and slowly wrapping the scarf around his neck.

The two were so close that they could hear each other's breathing.

I don't know if it was the first time I tied a scarf, or because I was too nervous, it took Hermione a long time to get it right.

Ivan was not in a hurry at all, his eyes looked directly at the delicate face of the girl close at hand, admiring her serious fiddling with the scarf.

After a while, Hermione finally put her scarf in order, took a step back, and returned to her previous position, standing there with her hands behind her back and looking at him.

Ivan naturally knew that she was looking forward to her gift, so he didn't mean to sell it, and took out a pendant from the pocket of the wizard's robe and displayed it in front of the little witch.

This pendant looks very peculiar, the whole is in the shape of a crescent, strung by a long silver chain, which shines exceptionally under the reflection of the moonlight.

"It's beautiful!" Hermione stared at it in fascination, muttering to herself.

However, she soon noticed that there were many fine cracks on the surface of the crescent moon pendant, as if it was badly damaged, and she looked at Ivan again in confusion.

"This is a Christmas present from my mother, Althea, at Christmas in 1st grade... A very delicate magical item that can resist a fatal damage for the bearer......" Ivan explained, his expression a little nostalgic.

Hermione was surprised and a little frightened, of course she could understand what the broken crescent moon pendant meant, didn't that mean that Ivan had almost died once?

"Is it time to protect the Philosopher's Stone?" Hermione thought of this at once and asked anxiously.

Although she didn't see the specific battle process at the time, the battle was obviously very tragic.

When she arrived with Dumbledore, it was full of broken walls, and Ivan was in a coma for two days before he could wake up.

Ivan nodded apprehensively, but before he could say anything, Hermione pounced on him and hugged him violently.

The intermittent cry soon reached his ears, and the robe on his chest seemed to be soaked with water.

"That was a long time ago, long gone, isn't it?" Ivan didn't expect the little witch to have such a big reaction, and he comforted him clumsily, and secretly regretted that he wouldn't have told her about it if he had known......

Hermione didn't reply, just snuggled into Ivan's arms, venting her panic, she wanted to reprimand Ivan for his risky actions, but she couldn't open her mouth anyway.

Because they went on that adventure together, Ivan didn't do anything wrong, if they didn't stop Quirrell, the mysterious man would use the resurrection of the Philosopher's Stone to wreak havoc in the wizarding world and set off a killing.

What really made Hemin feel painful was her own powerlessness, and she always couldn't help when it was critical.

Ivan comforted her softly, and it took a while to calm Hermione's emotions, and then put the crescent moon pendant on her with his own hands, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"It's fitting and beautiful!" Ivan looked at the girl in front of him and said appreciatively.

The former is talking about the pendant, and the latter is describing Hermione with the pendant.

Although the little witch cried and her eyes were still a little red, it did not affect her charm at all, but covered the strength of the past, highlighting the unique softness of the girl.

Hermione gently stroked the meniscus pendant hanging around her neck, the anxiety and fear in her heart gradually filled with happiness, she did not dislike this was a damaged magical item, and after understanding the reason, she knew very well how precious and special this gift was.

Thinking of this, Hermione wanted to say thank you, but was interrupted by Ivan.

"Wait... And that's not all! ”

Hermione looked at Ivan in confusion, not quite understanding what he meant.

"I think it's time to fix it!" Ivan said with a smile, reaching out to pick up the crescent moon pendant and slowly holding it in his palm.

Then Ivan closed his eyes and focused on using Professor Nicol Lemay's conduction magic to inject the strong emotions in his heart into the pendant.

Hermione was so nervous that she didn't dare to move or speak, for fear of disturbing Ivan's spell.

Gradually, a dazzling golden light passed from between Ivan's fingers, extremely warm, and Hermione, who was close at hand, could clearly feel the strong affection contained in that power.

It lasted like this for half a minute, Ivan opened his eyes again, his face was a little tired, he spread his hand, the crescent moon pendant in the center of his palm had become perfect, the fine cracks disappeared without a trace, and from time to time he could see the golden fluorescence flowing on it.
