Chapter 345: Coincidence
Receiving a commissioned task? Hearing this, Amosta was stunned, and then suddenly realized.
For most of the year, he has been nursing at Hogwarts, and he almost left his 'serious work' behind, but after coming back to his senses, Amosta did not respond immediately, looking at Kakus with an expectant face, his eyes flashed with thought.
Kakus shouldn't be unaware that he is now entangled in everything, even if he wants to earn intermediary fees from himself, he will not pick this inopportune time, and he should have encountered some tricky commissions.
Kakus Foley is not the only active mission broker in the underworld, and there is competition in this industry.
A good broker, the most important resource.
Not only the quest resources, but also the resources of the bounty wizard are also very important, otherwise, if the client posts the quest to you, you will never be able to find a good bounty wizard to complete the task, and in the long run, your trust will be affected.
"What, what's the trouble?"
"It's a hassle indeed, Mr. Viper--"
Favors belong to favors, business belongs to business, this point, Kakus still carried it clearly, he sighed and said,
"Thanatos Hodder, surely you won't forget him?"
Amosta's eyes narrowed suddenly, and his tone was a little surprised and vigilant,
"Tanatos? Why, it was he who posted the commission with you? β
"That's true, Mr. Viper, a rather troublesome taskβ" said Kakus, rubbing his temples in embarrassment,
"You will never forget the previous mission to bring back the artifacts from Egypt, when you returned to England and went ashore, you had a fierce fight with the Aurors led by Scrimgeour, and in that battle, the bone dragon of Tanatos was destroyed by Scrimthour, you know, Mr. Golden Viper, Tanatos is the faction of the undead creatures of the ancient arcane wizards, and the loss of that bone dragon has a great impact on his strength.
Not long after that mission, Tanatos hung up a commission with me, hoping that someone could find the skeleton of the fire dragon, but this is not easy, right, the wild fire dragon is very dangerous, and it is a magical creature under the key protection of the Ministry of Magic of various countries, and it is strictly guarded, even if the corpse is decomposed after death, there is also strict process supervision, and the commercial breeding fire dragon is too weak to meet Tanatos's requirements.
In the past few months, the bounty wizards who have been commissioned have been active in the major wild dragon sanctuaries, but they have returned one after another."
Kakus glanced vaguely at Amosta,
"Mr. Jin Viper, I vaguely remember that two years ago, you got a dragon egg of a Norwegian spineback from the Norwegian Fire Dragon Nature Reserve, and slaughtered a Norwegian red-scaled dragon at that time?"
"The valuable material has been broken down by me while the skeleton is in hand. I was abandoned in a protected area. β
Amosta pursed his lips and said, he really didn't realize the market for such things as skeletons at the time, otherwise, he could have made an extra amount of gold.
"It's a shame."
Kakus sighed, his face regretful,
"Look, do you have the will to do this task?"
"How much is he willing to pay?" Amosta asked with interest.
"Six thousand gold galleons!"
Kakus saw the light in Amosta's attitude, and he said quickly,
"If you can provide a skeleton of a fire dragon that has died recently, he is willing to pay this price, of course, we all know that a wild fire dragon is much more than that, so Tanatos is willing to take out some of his valuable collectibles or magic to offset the honorarium, if it is the skeleton of a fire dragon that has been dead for a while, the reward will probably be greatly reduced."
Amosta bowed slightly, the price was fair.
To be honest, Amosta didn't expect Kakus to throw out such a mission, and if it was another mission, he really wouldn't have helped with it.
After all, this is not the same as in the past, Amosta is now considered 'ashore', and there is always a risk of being too deeply involved in the underworld as before, and his mana has stabilized after a period of rapid growth that has lasted for several years, and fighting some unpopular wizards will not bring him any progress.
After the completion of the dormitory building, the orphanage needs to provide financial support from him, and the pressure is much less, and there is no need to bother to accept the commission for gold.
The mission also involved Tanatos, a strange coincidence that he needed his help with something.
"Alright, Kakus, I'll take the commission."
Amosta's straightforward tone promised that Kakus was overjoyed, and with the golden viper's shot, his reputation was preserved.
"On the side of Natanatos"
"Don't worry, Kakus, I'll communicate with him directly."
Amosta waved his hand, and after saying this, his figure disappeared into the small village that had no quarrel with the world.
"Direct communication."
Kakus leaned against the door frame, frowning and whispering Mr. Blaine's last words, the rules of the underground world are that the client and the undertaker of the mission will not meet directly, any questions about the mission are conveyed through the mission broker, Amosta Bryan is also the 'old man' of the underground world, how can he easily break the rules?
Sirius Black's recapture by the Ministry of Magic was like a boulder crashing into the water, causing the waves caused by the extermination of Greyback and his men to be completely calmed down, causing another uproar in the wizarding world.
Journalists from all over the world who had come to England to cover Amosta Bryan returned to their home countries, and before they had time to rest, they received an urgent notice and rushed to England non-stop, for fear of missing the recent carnival of the press.
For days, the entrances to the Ministry of Magic were overcrowded, and the frenzied reporters tried to find every British Ministry of Magic official they could find, hoping for more valuable information.
However, with the exception of the official disclosure published in the Daily Prophet, the Ministry of Magic remained silent and unwilling to make any official reply, and the Ministry of Magic refused any requests from reporters to interview Black.
There was a lot of speculation about whether the Ministry of Magic had made up a shocking lie to end Sirius Black's escape from prison, but even so, Cornelius Fudge did not let go, but publicly declared that Black was being interrogated by the Ministry of Magic, and after everything was clarified, the Ministry of Magic wanted the public to release the truth.
But such vague statements certainly do not satisfy the appetite of the beaten journalists, who now have a large crowd of journalists on the doorstep of every high-ranking official in the British Ministry of Magic.
Because what was going to happen next had already involved internal conflicts within the Ministry of Magic, Amosta did not intervene in the turmoil.
He didn't return to Hogwarts either, but stayed in his London hotel, waiting for things to ferment, waiting for Peter Pettigrew, who was about to appear in the public eye, and by the way, dealing with fan letters from all over the world.
Knock Knock β
On a sunny morning, Amosta returned to his hotel room after breakfast, and just as he was about to reply to a letter to the Magical Congress of the United States asking him to share his experience in killing werewolves and vampires efficiently, there was a sudden knock on the door of his room.
