Harry Potter’s Natural Villain Chapter 5: Letters and shopping


   Learning magic, training two younger brothers who are in arrears with IQ, occasionally brushing Pansy's favor with stories, and occasionally traveling with his parents. Malfoy's life is quite fulfilling.

   "I think Durmstrang is more suitable for him." After seeing the letter, Lucius tried his last effort. After all, there are few restrictions on black magic research there, and there is no need to live with non-pure-blood students. Lucius believes that Malfoy should be there to get a better education.

   "Would you like our baby son to go so far? It's still a small island, how inconvenient it would be!". Narcissa insisted on her opinion and wanted to send Malfoy to Hogwarts, which was closer to home. "Here you are also a college director, maybe you can take care of it."

   "You know that I'm not on the right track with the old man with white beard." Lucius looked a little ugly.

   "I still decided to go to Hogwarts." Malfoy still said his decision calmly.

   What's a joke, how can I lose my opinion of Lori for so long?

   After several years of getting along somewhat similar to childhood sweethearts, Pansy now has a very deep friendship with Mar FJ, in addition to still maintaining a little verbal arrogance.

   What's more, I might be able to make a cameo at Hogwarts. I can only get a black eye when I go to the island. The only one who knows is the prestige who has participated in the top three cups. Kdor, it doesn't make any sense at all.

   "Have you heard that, our precious son can't bear us either." Narcissa gave Malfoy a kiss on the forehead again.

   "Let's do it." Lucius shrugged helplessly, facing the consensus of the mother and son, even Lucius as the head of the family could only compromise.

   "Oh! By the way, I think you need to go to Diagon Alley. I can't wait to see our little Draco put on a new wizard robe." Narcissa said very much. . "By the way, you definitely need a magic wand, and you must let Ollivander pick the one that suits you best."

   "I know." Mentioning the wand Malfoy doesn't have much desire for him, as long as he can use it. If you really want to pursue it, you have to be an existence like the old magic wand. Of course Malfoy didn't catch a cold with him, after all, whoever got it basically put on a halo of doom by default. Will not fail in a head-on duel? Okay, let's assassinate the head office.

   Your own strength is the only foundation. If you give Voldemort and Dumbledore the most common wand, will their strength be greatly compromised? More skilled wizards can even master the skills of wandless or even silent casting. So the magic wand is only an aid, it can add wings and icing on the cake, but it can't let the salted fish turn over. Malfoy knew this very well.

   "It's not too late. I think we can go early. There will be a lot of people in a few days. I don't think we will like the crowded." Lucius said to Malfoy.

   "I think this is a good idea." Malfoy is actually a little impatient in his heart. Although he has no desire for the wand, he is full of curiosity about other places in Diagon Alley, such as Wall Street in the wizarding world— Gringotts? Or a Weasley joke shop? Maybe it hasn't opened yet.

   Then Lucius and Malfoy came to the fireplace in the living room.

   "Be careful not to say the destination wrong." Lucius reminded.

   "Don't worry, father." Malfoy was very clear about the consequences of his mistake, plus it was the first time he used the Floo Net, naturally he was alive and well.

   "Diagonal Alley!" Malfoy and Lucius walked into the fireplace holding hands, shouting the name of the destination at the same time, and then sprinkled a handful of Floo powder-a shining powdery substance. , Used to transmit.

   The green flame suddenly rose, flashing with a strange light.

   Obviously, Floo Network has started to work.

   A tearing sensation surged towards Malfoy, and he felt as if he was being sucked into a huge vortex, making him feel dizzy, turning and turning. But it didn't take long for Malfoy to feel that he was standing on the cold flat ground again.

   "I think we can go find a place to take a break." It is normal that the first time using Floo powder for transmission will not be very comfortable. So Lucius decided to take Malfoy to other places to relax for a while.

   "I think so." Malfoy gasped slightly, still trying to recover his physical condition.

   "I think we can go to the Florin cold drink shop to try their new licorice ice cream." Although Lucius is usually a little gloomy, but now he is like many ordinary fathers, hoping that his children will be happy Smile.

   I have to say that no matter which world you are in, the healing power of sweets is very powerful. Malfoy felt much better after eating a whole ice cream.

   "I think ice cream will bring us good luck." Lucius said a rare witty remark. "Come on, Malfoy, go to Ollivander's wand shop, I think you can definitely get a satisfactory wand."

   The two walked for a while, and a small and broken shop appeared in front of Malfoy and his son. There was a magic wand alone on the faded purple cushion in the window, and the gold sign on the front door of the shop had been peeled off. It reads: "Ollivander, has been making excellent wands since 382 BC".

   As soon as they entered the shop, Malfoy and his son heard a jingle, and there was nothing but a bench and an old man in the shop.

   "Good afternoon." A soft voice came, and it was obvious that the owner of the voice was naturally the owner of this shop-Garrick Ollivander, one of the three major wand makers in Europe.

   Ollivander’s appearance is very ordinary, but those silver-white eyes always make people feel the wisdom of reading through the vicissitudes of life, like two shining moons.

   "Sure enough, people who do the best in any way are not ordinary." Malfoy even felt a similar breath in him.

   "Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Lucius. The last meeting seemed to happen yesterday."

   "Yes, yes, you remember every wand you sell, you say the same to everyone, although I know you do remember, but I don’t need extra words." But Lucius told him Very polite.

   "What a handsome little guy, what is a Muggle word? By the way! Gene. Presumably this kid must have inherited a lot of your genes." Ollivander's eyes turned to Malfoy. As a businessman, it is easy to infer the relationship between the two. "What's his name?"

   "Draco Malfoy" Malfoy replied.

   "What a good name."

   Ollivander looked at Malfoy.

   "Come here." Ollivander brought Malfoy to the counter.

  "Which hand would you like to use the wand with?"

   "I think the right hand is more convenient." Most people in the world are still right-handed.

   At the same time, a tape measure with silver scales also began to automatically measure Malfoy.

  Ollivander was about to go back and get a wand for Malfoy to try. Malfoy spoke suddenly.

   "Mr. Ollivander, I think this one is good." Malfoy said, pointing to a wand.

   "Hmm..." Ollivander groaned. "I think it is better for you to listen to the advice of professionals. After all, a magic wand may be with you for a lifetime."

   "I think I still want to listen to my son's advice first."

   "Okay." Ollivander shrugged helplessly, and turned to take the wand designated by Malfoy.

  "Hawthorn, unicorn hair, exactly ten inches. Try it first." Ollivander's face is not very good, and anyone who is questioned in his field of expertise should not be in a good mood.

   "Fluorescence flashes!" Malfoy, who took the wand, quickly used the spell he was most familiar with so far.

   A dazzling light suddenly emanated from the end of the wand, and the dazzling light made Lucius and Ollivander almost unable to open their eyes.

   "It looks like I'm going to be unemployed." Ollivander smiled self-deprecatingly when he saw it. It was obvious that this wand was a perfect match for Malfoy.

   "I just don't want to waste time." Malfoy thought.

   "How much." Lucius was about to pay the bill.

   "Twelve golden gallons." Ollivander's voice was a little weak. It seems to have been hit hard.

   "I think your kid will be a great wizard." Ollivander sent the Malfoy father and son out of the door, bowed, and said a heartfelt emotion rather than a compliment.

   "Thanks to your good words." Lucius is also in a good mood, although this good mood will soon be broken.

   walked out of the Ollivander Wand Shop, there was a lot of people in Diagon Alley, and many parents had brought their children to buy school supplies. At this time, Lucius saw a person whom he hated the most.

   "Dear son, I hope you can remember the glory that belongs to our blood, and don't tarnish our honor like everyone else." Lucius suddenly said this to Malfoy.

   "Okay, father, the glory of the Malfoy family will be immortal." Malfoy was a little puzzled, why Lucius suddenly said something to himself without thinking. But Malfoy soon understood.

   Lucius led Malfoy to a father and son who were choosing goods.

   "I think I understand." Looking at the flame-like red hair on the two men's heads, Malfoy felt clear.

  "It’s unbelievable, Arthur, you actually appear here. I thought that the Weasleys wouldn’t use new things. By the way, one wand per person, it can’t be the old one. I didn't think about it well." Lucius mocked them viciously.

   Regrettably, Lucius was still wrong, and Ron used Charlie’s old wand.

   "I think when the Malfoy family became so nosy." Arthur responded coldly in Lucius's mouth.

   There is only one family in the wizarding world with such appearance characteristics-the Weasley family. The identities of the two are of course ready to be revealed-Arthur Weasley and Ron Weasley.

   Ron flushed at this time, obviously paying attention to what Lucius said.

   "I just hope that some people don't shame our families and give some kind reminders." Lucius explained, of course, it is not so much an explanation as it is an intensified mockery.

   "Let's go." Arthur dragged Ron away quickly, obviously not wanting to argue with Lucius here.

   "When we first met, it seems that things are not so good." Malfoy thought.

   are both pure-blood families in the wizarding world. The Malfoy and Weasley families should be regarded as going to two extremes. One extreme advocates pure-blood theory, hoping to prove its superiority, and expresses contempt for Muggles. The other is very interested in and friendly to Muggles, and wrote the "Muggle Protection Act" to guarantee the interests of Muggles. The former is naturally very difficult to understand the actions of the latter, thinking that they have tarnished the glory of pure blood, and the latter is also unacceptable to the former's advocacy of blood, thinking that they are a group of out-and-out madmen.

  The difference in philosophy is enough to make the relationship tense. If you look at the green religion in reality, you can understand that an orthodox status is enough to start a war.

   In the crowds, Lucius is not too ostentatious, so he can only choose another weakness of the Weasleys to attack, that is the economic situation. Perhaps it was because Arthur was too upright. As the director of the Ministry of Magic’s Department of Prohibition of Muggle Supplies, in theory, he should be able to make a lot of money, but the Weasley’s life is still tight. It was enough to see that most of the items Ron used were used by his brother.

   And Lucius used his family's influence to make a fortune. From the various furnishings in the manor, you can know the amazing financial resources of the Malfoy family now. You can see the leopard in the tube.

   "As a person with vested interests, who can immediately abandon everything in front of him?." As a person with a good education in the 21st century, this discriminatory view should actually be swept away long ago In the garbage dump of history. But who can give up the good life in front of him? Malfoy is not a saint, so naturally he has his own selfishness.

   To make an inappropriate analogy, you have become a slave-owner of black slaves. Can you still follow Lincoln to liberate slaves immediately?

   "You can only change as slowly as possible." In fact, Malfoy himself knows better that there are many people who intermarried with Muggles in the family tree of the Malfoy family. Even today the wealth of the family has largely benefited from this. Supposing it is exposed one day, it may be a devastating blow to his family. Changing the stale concept may also be regarded as helping oneself.

   "Remember the red hair of that family, that is a shame among our pure-blood wizards." Seeing that Arthur was "defeated", Lucius couldn't help but feel complacent and continued to instill his own ideas in Malfoy~IndoMTL .com~ Father, I think I remembered it. "

   "That's good." Lucius' pale face couldn't help but show a smile.

   "I think we have to go to Gringotts now." Lucius said after thinking for a while.

   "My father, I think the money we brought this time should be enough to buy wizard robes and school books." Malfoy reminded.

   "Dear child, don't you want to have your own flying broomstick? Such a little money is not enough."

   "Uh, I don't think you, Father, must have read the letter carefully."

   Lucius smiled: "I think as a school director, I can still give my son some small privileges in this regard."

   "That's awesome." From this, Malfoy couldn't help but feel excited, flying-one of the ultimate dreams of mankind.

   "But you have to promise me one condition."

   "What?"

   "Don't tell your mother, you know, your mother hates you for doing something she seems dangerous." Lucius gave a knowing smile.

   "Of course, my father." Malfoy nodded, looking a little impatient. In my heart, I thought to myself: "There is no reason why the person in the original book is spoiled with such a personality."

   "Then let's go." Lucius touched Malfoy's head.

   I have to say, maybe Lucius's personal virtues are at a loss, but it is blameless for his relatives.
