Chapter 46 Intelligence

The unknown is a source of fear.

And darkness always makes people associate it with the unknown.

So Garrick Ollivander is very wary of Kane.

As an old wizard, Garrick recognizes the existence of evil.

Like Voldemort and the Death Eaters, he knew that there would always be such guys who would show up and wreak havoc.

Magic gives wizards power, and those who have it will realize their ambitions, and they will not hesitate to resort to cruel means to harm others.

Of course he didn't like to be around people like that.

He believes that no one likes to be around someone who has the ability and the potential to hurt them.

In his eyes, Kane is such a person.

The power is immeasurable.

With his true eye, Kane was a humanoid shadow burning with dark energy.

This dark energy was purer and deeper than anything he had ever seen before, as if it could suck the soul of a person into it.

And, Kane wears a crown on his head.

According to Garrick's experience, the blurred face and appearance means that it has not yet really taken shape.

The crown, on the other hand, represents its pattern.

There is a hint of the effect of the true eye that can glimpse the future.

Very probable, but you can also see the path taken by the target.

The young man in front of him is ambitious and already has a foundation.

In his mind, at least holding some kind of dark holy weapon, or doing something too great, could have such a position.

Voldemort also had a similar pattern around 80 years, when the dark cause was flourishing and the fire was cooking, with a larger and more majestic crown, but not so solid.

In addition, Voldemort did not have such a pure color, darkness was his background color, gray-black, not pure black, and the curves of poisonous green, fluorescent blue, and scarlet light were intertwined and constantly circulating.

He even saw a delicate, but uninterrupted, white glow in Voldemort's body. It represents death, not the death of others, but the sign of his own death, and it also means his fear of death.

As for the other three colors, it is easier to explain and more common, poison green is evil, glow blue is cruel, and scarlet is destruction.

The true eye can see people and distinguish objects.

It is with this talent that Garrick can know the magical properties of the wand material, as well as the circulation method and characteristics. This way, when he makes his wand, he can make the best use of the material mana line.

Those magic lines that resemble wood grains, after being combed by him, form a better magic circuit, and hold the user's input magic power in a 'smooth' attitude, which is naturally more effective.

Garrick already had a prejudice against Kane.

First impressions, plus empiricism. Let him think that this man is dangerous.

And what about Kane?

After being discovered, he did not deny it or quibble, but instead pointed out the qualities of the wand Garrick used.

This was indeed a topic that Garrick was quite concerned about, and Kane let him know that at least in terms of wand knowledge and cognition, the teenager was not much inferior to him.

On the trade-off, Garrick didn't think it was the right choice to go toe-to-toe with Kane.

He estimated that if he wanted to take Kane, only wizards of the level of Dumbledore, Voldemort, and Grindelwald were somewhat sure.

He doesn't know it, he makes wands, but he doesn't fight.

The more jealous he became, the more he wanted to know more, and before he knew it, he had made the same mistake, checking his household registration and wanting to know more about Kane.

"Mr. Ollivanders, do you think anyone realizes that you are a potential threat to wizards through their wands, knowing their personality traits and spell-casting habits?"

Garrick immediately felt much heavier.

Voldemort has been gone for almost nine years. However, few wizards believed that Voldemort was dead.

After all, Voldemort is the Dark Lord, and his attainments in magic, especially the dark arts, are extremely high. It's no surprise that he has some kind of unbelievable way to save his life.

Galio also believes that Voldemort's Halloween in '81 was merely a setback, not a death, and that he should now be somewhere to continue his strength and prepare to return to the wizarding world.

Voldemort lurking somewhere, as well as the Death Eaters and Dark Wizards who have turned into secret activities, are like gray cumulonimbus clouds, brewing in people's hearts, making people feel depressed and uncomfortable.

In this context, Kane's words can be described as heartbreaking.

And then, listen to Kane continue:

"People can lie, they can cover up, but wand attributes don't. The nature of the wand can clearly point out the magical characteristics of wizards, and wizards don't just come to you when they buy a wand, repair, adjust, and will come, so you know the magic status of most wizards, as well as the details of the changes, and even know what types of spells wizards are good at by checking the wand. ”

Garrick swallowed. Kane was on point, and that was the problem he was worried about with the nature of his job, and once the wizards thought about it, he was in a bit of a bad situation.

Kane added, "The Order of the Phoenix rose to prominence in the late stages of the Wizarding Wars, and I believe you have a credit for it. Others may ignore you, but Dumbledore won't. I seem to see you talking in front of Dumbledore, and Dumbledore was moved many times, and finally had to take out a pen and paper to record the scene. ”

Garrick was drenched in a cold sweat.

Pretending to be cool for a while, the whole family crematorium refers to this.

Of course, he was proud, and after thinking about it, he wanted to give himself a few slaps in the face.

If the Death Eaters knew about it, would it be good for him?

Sirius, a follower of Voldemort, betrayed and betrayed his best friend, James Potter.

After this happened, Garrick was stunned for a long time. At one point, he even planned to flee.

Later, it was justice that prevailed, and Voldemort's organization collapsed overnight, and he felt a little more at ease in his heart, and wanted to see it, and nearly ten years had passed.

He could vaguely feel the gloom building up, and he realized that Voldemort was coming back. Even if they don't return, the Death Eaters are likely to make waves again.

What I didn't expect was that in such a season, it was exposed by such an existence.

Garrick finally couldn't hold on anymore, and he asked weakly in a tone of accepting blackmail, "What do you want?"

Kane smiled, "I don't like this question very much, I'm like an exploiter who wants to take the last Nat in people's pockets." ”

Kane straightened his body, raised his chin slightly, and introduced himself very formally: "I am the heir to the title of the Baron of the Highlands, the chief pharmacist of the MONOCULUS Chamber of Commerce, Kane Shafiq. ”

Garrick suddenly showed a look of realization, and he said, "I'm an old man, I have to apologize to you." I also believed those gossips before, thinking that you were a genius who was deliberately packaged. ”

"Well, I accept your apology. People always believe what they want to believe. A wizard who achieves more before the age of ten achieves than many wizards can achieve in their lifetime. This kind of thing can make people feel like they are living to be dogs, so they refuse to believe in this possibility. ”

Garrick was embarrassed that Kane was right, but he really didn't like it.

Fortunately, Kane is not belittling others and showing off himself too much.

"Now that you know who I am," he said, "it's time to guess what will happen next." The Shafiq family is generous and never lets his collaborators suffer. The Shafiq family is willing to work hand in hand with wizards, regardless of their origin or ability. As long as there is a good vision and a willingness to work for it, then there is a basis for cooperation. ”

Seeing Garrick's constipated expression, Kane laughed: "Don't worry, the Shafiq family has no intention of snooping on Ollivanders' secret technology. The Shafiq family will not find profits from the traditional industries that already exist and crush their peers. In the direction of potions, our Chamber of Commerce has done this, and so can it on the wand. ”

Garrick was confused at first, then understood. He understood that what the Shafiq family needed was intelligence......
