The part of this chapter about house-elves is pure nonsense...... Maybe it's another brain pumping by a stupid author......

“……”

Hagrid frantically pestled to the side to load the pillar, he was him, and explained to Hermione in detail what house-elves were and their love of labor and refusal to pay.

Lin Xiaoan sighed and took on the responsibility of brainwashing Hermione: "Hermione, calm down, it's actually not what you think......

Have you ever wondered why house-elves only exist in large families and large institutions like Hogwarts?

Cheap...... No, it's almost costly, it's easy to use, and house-elves should be very popular.

If the house-elves just give unconditionally, they don't need to reciprocate at all...... So, why don't ordinary wizard families have house-elves?

- Have you thought about these? ”

……

Fortunately, Hermione hadn't completely lost her mind—she still had a little bit of the ability to tell right from wrong—so she followed Lin Xiao'an's words and asked, "Why?" Xiao An, if you know, please let me know. ”

"Huh......" Draco Tsundere Malfoy snorted, apparently, he knew the answer too.

Lin Xiaoan raised his palm and made a "please" gesture: "Draco, or ...... You say? ”

"Why?!" Draco immediately choked, "I don't want to talk to the mud—"

Lin Xiao'an smoothly pasted Xiao Hei on Draco's face, and smiled casually: "Then, let me explain!"

A house-elf is a magical creature born with powerful magical powers-

Even, there are house-elves who are even more powerful than their owners.

But their biggest weakness is that they need to draw a specific amount of energy on a regular basis to quell the magical riots in their bodies, otherwise they will be torn apart by the loss of control of their magic in adulthood -

The so-called 'specific' energy refers to the energy contained in natural gemstones.

Yes, don't be surprised, I'm talking about gems, and the purer the gems, the more energy they contain can soothe the restlessness of their magic -

While the energy required for each house-elf is relatively minimal, and perhaps a small gem can satisfy their lifetime consumption, not every wizarding family can afford it.

So, believe me, Hermione, the house-elves who have left the Lord's house, unless they can get a job in Gringotts, the future is not optimistic-

Maybe you want to ask why they don't mine themselves or simply steal and rob ...... All I can say is that their innate sense of morality limits their access to unclaimed wealth—"

……

"Gringotts goblins are not the same as house-elves! They don't need to absorb the energy of the gems, otherwise wizards wouldn't be at ease with their possessions! ”

Draco pulled Hei off his face—Nanjia Fish quickly snatched Hei over and held him in his arms—and said haughtily, "Only someone as old and rich as our Malfoy family (Lin Xiaoan: What?) Wealthy? You tell me to be rich? can generously use gems as consumables for house-elves - mud ...... Granger, the only one who is so angry that he is waiting to die?! ”

Hermione still looked a little unconvinced: "Times are changing, and the wizarding world needs to progress, maybe we can find alternative energy...... Well, I'm sure I'll find out! ”

Nan Jiayu stroked Xiao Hei and said with interest: "So...... Can I raise a house-elf in my family? ”

Lin Xiaoan shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "The premise is, you want to buy a dragon first?" ”

"Oh, forget it." Nan Jiayu pouted, "I still like plush!" ”

Harry and Ron, who had become the background board, couldn't interject at all: "......"

Lin Xiaoan was relieved: "It seems that we have reached a consensus again? ”

After the full moon, the little dragon was sent to Lin Xiao'an's house (you will never want to see it again, the half-giant Hagrid wipes tears with a handkerchief bigger than a tablecloth in his eyes!). Professor Dumbledore swore that he would be able to complete all the magic circle settings before the summer vacation, and that Muggles would never notice anything out of the ordinary.

Time flies, and all the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the students are trembling in front of the monster of the "final exam".

Lin Xiaoan had a headache...... Although his actual application of magic is definitely a perfect score -

But! Why is there a written test?

Whoever invented what spell, who made what terms against Muggles, who was burned by Muggles......

Is it useful to keep these in mind? Ha?! Does it work?!

“…… It was much easier than I thought. ”

At the end of the final history of magic exam, when they followed the crowd to the sunny field outside, Hermione was still saying, "I don't really need to remember the 'Werewolf Code of Conduct of 1637' and the Elf Rebellion. ”

……

"Don't talk about it, Hermione, it's all over......" Lin Xiaoan rubbed his forehead, "It's hot enough, let's talk about something less upsetting......"

"Uh...... Xiao An, are you free? There's something I'd like to talk to you about, okay? ”

At this time, an uninvited guest interjected.

Lin Xiaoan: "......"

Hermione: "......"

Lin Xiaoan was shocked and suspicious, "Ka Ka Ka" turned his neck, almost glared at the person who suddenly appeared next to him, and said, "Me? Have something to talk to me about? Are you sure? Porter...... Harry? ”

"Yes, Ann, okay?" Harry added apprehensively, "About Snape...... Professor. ”
