Chapter Eighty-Nine: I Swear in the Name of My Family (Second Watch)
......
"Sure enough, it's a murder and arson gold belt!"
Turning the box over and pouring out all the contents inside, Li Chuan couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Deadly Black Magic", "Alchemy: The Refining of Cursed Items", "Muggle Dissecting Experiment Guide", "Eighteen Deadly Poison Recipes", ......
Ignoring the roughly three hundred gold galleons, he picked up the magic books that were simply unavailable on the market.
"Hey, it's a diary."
From those dozen or so magic books, Li Chuan found a somewhat worn diary.
After opening it and browsing it roughly, it turned out to be some fragments of the old wizard's own experience, although scattered, but also gave him some understanding of the old wizard.
The old wizard's name was Manu Angel, his mother was a witch, and his father was a Muggle, and because of his father's handsome appearance, his mother, as a witch, fell in love with his father.
But due to the existence of the law of secrecy, she had to give up her status as a witch and marry her father at the cost of never picking up a wand again.
However, due to an accident, his father learned of his mother's identity as a witch, and he was as afraid of the existence of witches as normal Muggles, and took other Muggles to burn his mother and Manu, who was only three years old.
As a witch, she naturally wouldn't be killed by the flames, and her mother sadly fled the Muggle village with little Manu in her apparition.
His mother was imprisoned for performing magic in front of Muggles, and she died of depression, while little Manu was raised by his uncle and enrolled in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The shadow of his childhood made little Manu hate Muggles and became obsessed with the power of the dark arts.
After graduating, he was wanted by the Ministry of Magic for killing Muggles several times for magical experiments, and thus lived a life of wandering around the world, and also became a ruthless dark wizard.
Over the years, more than a hundred Muggles have died at his hands, and wizards have killed more than a dozen.
Because he heard about Grindelwald's deeds and recognized Grindelwald's ideas, he planned to sell some of the poisons he made in Tumbledown Alley and go to France to join Grindelwald.
It's just that he didn't expect it, but it was accidentally planted in the hands of Li Chuan, a half-hung wizard.
No way, who would have thought that in Tumbledown Alley at three o'clock in the morning, there would be a yin thing hiding in the wall all the time to sneak attack.
The key is not the magic used, if Li Chuan uses a disarming spell, he, as an experienced old wizard, will definitely be able to detect it in advance and cast a spell to stop it.
Who can react to the way of snatching the wand with the body, the hand strength is still so big, the old skin has been pulled off a layer and he has not kept his wand.
Putting the diary, the magic book, the golden galleon, and all kinds of miscellaneous items into his cloth bag, Li Chuan went downstairs and walked towards the basement.
He wanted to have a good talk with the old wizard.
He may not be able to master those dark arts and alchemy by himself, but with the guidance of a senior dark wizard, it will be much faster.
......
"Tom Foley, it's you!"
In the basement, old Manu, who was tightly chained, recognized Li Chuan the first time he saw him.
The owner of the Diagon Alley herb shop, the last wizard of the Twenty-Eight Holy Clan's Foley family, although Li Chuan's original strength is not good, he is still a little more well-known.
"Looks like you know me!"
Li Chuan showed a kind smile on his face.
Old Manu glanced at the house-elf next to him with some fear, Barry, gritted his teeth and tried to suppress his anger and asked:
"I don't seem to have any grudge against you, why did you attack me and tie me up here?"
"Hmm... We really don't have a grudge, and to be honest, I only attacked you because you just met my qualifications, and I need a teacher who can teach me dark magic. ”
"Teacher?"
Old Manu was stunned, and was speechless for a while.
As soon as he woke up, he had been wondering if he had offended someone recently, or if the family and friends of some wizard he had killed before wanted to get revenge on him.
It's such an unbelievable reason to do it for a long time.
Do you want to find a teacher to teach you black magic, so you can go to Tumble Alley and tie one up? Is there such a thing?
"Mr. Manu, you're going to stay here for the rest of the while, and your job is to answer all my questions about the dark arts, and don't try to run away, Barry will be watching you.
If I find out that you have any signs of escape, then I will kill you outright and then go to Tumbledown Alley and tie another one back.
You have to understand that there are a lot of dark wizards in Tumbledown Alley, and you are not the only one. ”
Li Chuan smiled at the corner of his mouth, but the killing intent in his words made Manu, the dark wizard, tremble twice.
He felt more like a dark wizard than he was.
"And if I answer all your questions, will you let me go?"
Manu knew the current situation, and there was no other way but to agree, but he was also afraid that after he had no use value, the other party would still kill him.
Li Chuan nodded:
"Don't worry, I swear in the name of the Foley family, as long as you sincerely guide me to learn dark arts and related knowledge, I will definitely let you go completely and safely."
He wasn't really Tom Foley, and swearing in the name of the Foley family was of course just a coping situation.
Let a ruthless dark wizard leave, waiting for him to find time to take revenge at any time, Li Chuan is not such a naïve and stupid person.
Even if he really wanted to let old Manu go, it would not be possible to complete it, at least use the Oblivion Charm to clear his memory, so that he could completely forget what happened in Forlì Manor.
"Okay, then I promise you."
Hearing Li Chuan swear in the name of the family, Old Manu agreed without the slightest hesitation.
Almost everyone in the wizarding world knows that as long as a wizard, especially a pure-blood wizard, swears by his own family, it is basically impossible to lie.
Especially since Tom Foley is still a member of the Divine Twenty-Eight, it is impossible to make fun of the family casually.
"But I want to warn you, if you don't teach seriously and I learn slowly, then I will kill you too!"
Li Chuan said and waved his wand directly, and it was a cutting spell towards the man in the suit who was tied to the cross next to him, cutting off his head directly, and blood sprayed directly.
And the fat man and a few others next to the man in the suit were suddenly frightened and howled wolf.
The dark wizard was not surprised by this situation, but the corners of his mouth twitched silently, and he secretly cursed in his heart:
"Merlin's pants, if you don't have a good learning ability, you have to blame me if you can't learn!"
scolded in his heart, but he also understood that the other party's posture was definitely not a joke, if he dared not teach seriously, he might really die here.
It is not difficult for a wizard to live past a hundred years, he is only sixty years old and does not want to die so early.
