Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Sainz felt that he had figured out the feasible technical route for invisibility.

The next technical breakthrough is to find a piece of invisible animal fur that has lost its magical power.

If there is no real object and we can only rely on our imagination, we will not be able to figure it out even after a hundred years.

The fur of the invisible beast is not easy to get. I went to several magic supply stores and magic material stores in Diagon Alley and asked around, but none of them had any.

Looking at the "Invisible Book" in his hand, Sainz slapped his head and thought out of habit. Isn't this just looking for chopsticks with chopsticks? If there is any company that is most likely to have invisible beast fur in the near future, isn't it the publishing company of "The Invisible Book"?

I had never paid much attention to the publisher of this book before. I flipped through the title page and saw it was published by Momoran Book Company.

The company's headquarters seems to be in Diagon Alley.

Sainz found a large 18th-century building at No. a on the south side of Diagon Alley, which was the headquarters of the Obscurus Book Company.

"How can I help you?" a young witch asked him. She looked like Parkerson, a newcomer who had just graduated and started working.

As the company receptionist, she is above average in appearance.

"Hello, I want to consult your manager about something."

"Okay, wait a moment."

The young witch waved her wand and cast a spell, and a note turned into a bird and flew into the stairs behind her.

After a while, a male wizard in his thirties came down, dressed in a suit and looking very energetic. "Who is looking for me, Miss Mislan?"

"Manager, it's this little wizard."

The manager looked at Sainz, but did not show any impatience because of his young age. "Hello, I am the reception manager, Bartlan Worm, please come this way."

Sainz followed the other party into a small reception room next to the lobby and said directly, "Hello, Manager Worm, I am Sainz Autumn, and I am here to ask if your company can sell me some invisible beast fur."

"This request...is rarely heard. Generally speaking, people who come to us discuss matters related to books." Manager Worm did not refuse outright, but talked about other things.

“I know this may be a little unexpected, but I just want to acquire some fur of the invisible beast as research material for my own use, not for any other purpose.

I don't think it will have any adverse impact on your business.

Speaking of which, I am still a loyal customer of your company. If I hadn’t bought the Invisibility Book of Invisibility, how would I know that you have invisible beast fur recently? "

Hearing this, Bartram Worm's expression seemed to relax, "Thank you very much for your support of our company. As a book publishing company, how can we stop a little wizard's passion for studying magic?

Since it is used as research material, we can give you some, but not too much, you know the reason!"

Sainz happily shook his hand and said, "Thank you so much. I don't know if you can understand that feeling. Sometimes you suddenly become interested in something and even think about it while eating and sleeping. But this enthusiasm may suddenly disappear soon."

"Yes, yes, that's right. It seems that my little wizard friend must be a Ravenclaw. I know that you always have a lot of fleeting mysterious ideas in your mind."

Sainz didn't respond, but just reminded him, "Since you agree to part with it, please bring some to me without further delay. By the way, if there are any fur scraps that have lost their magic power, I would also like to buy some at the price. You know, it's just my personal interest."

"I understand, I understand. Please wait a moment. I'll be back soon."

After leaving Obscurus Books, Sain specifically inquired about Bartram Worm.

It turns out that the Obscurus Book Company is the Worm family business. It is estimated that this young front desk manager also has a certain say in the family. No wonder he agreed to the deal with Sainz without asking for permission.

The fur of the invisible beast is very valuable. A small piece, less than the size of a palm, is worth one hundred Galleons. Sainz bought two complete pieces.

The other furs that had lost their magic powers were sold to him at a low price by the other party.

Wizards consider things that have lost their magic power to be ordinary items. Ordinary items are worthless except for being seen as something new.

This is the difference between ten Galleons for one strand of unicorn tail hair and ten Galleons for a bundle of unicorn tail hair.

With the real object as a reference, Sainz's attempt to turn ordinary cloth into non-magical invisible animal hide was quickly successful.

However, whether this is just his personal illusion or not, it still needs to be verified by injecting magic power.

The wizards in the magic world are not fools. He doesn't believe that others can't think of what Sainz can think of.

Trying to infuse magic into de-magic fur isn't a unique and ingenious idea; surely others have tried it before.

Therefore, Sainz never thought of picking up the leftovers from the opponent's disposal.

There is no need to look carefully, the invisible talisman on each piece of scrap must have been destroyed.

The only way to prove that the "charging" of the talisman is feasible is to keep experimenting on the skin you create.

Because there were two variables at the same time, the experiment did not go very smoothly.

In the event of a certain failure, it is difficult to infer whether the responsibility lies with the fact that one's skin has become wrong or the talisman does not allow charging at all.

There is no other way but to use this method and try it little by little.

How nice it would be if there was an undamaged invisible beast hide whose magic power had naturally been exhausted.

Unfortunately, life is full of disappointments. It was a blessing from Merlin that I could find the experimental materials and start the experiment so quickly.

Can't expect anything else.

In between experiments, Sainz would occasionally go out for a walk to relax.

I can’t say that I felt uncomfortable during the days I stayed at the Broken Axe Bar, but since it was not my own territory, some things were always a bit inconvenient.

Just like the ongoing research on invisibility, if it were placed in the Room of Requirement and advanced in a big way, the answer might have been found long ago.

Whether the answer is yes or no, it is an answer.

Whether it succeeds or not, there is no need to waste time like this.

Yes, Sainz feels that a lot of time is wasted because he is unable to relax.

Maybe he had become too picky because of the Room of Requirement. It had only been less than half a month since he came out, but he was already feeling uncomfortable.

"It's time to buy myself a house. Living in a hotel all the time is really boring."

He actually had this idea last Christmas, but the situation was not urgent at the time. Also, he was worried that the underage wizard would be targeted by some people if he bought a house, so he never implemented it.

At that time, he asked Conte to help buy potion equipment and materials, and he also wanted to make the polyjuice potion as soon as possible so that he could disguise himself as an adult.

However, there is no record of Polyjuice Potion in any textbook, whether it is "Magical Medicinal Products and Potions" or "Advanced Potion-Making".

He knew that the book in which Hermione found the Polyjuice Potion was called "Powerful Potions", and that the book was in the restricted section of the Hogwarts library.

In order to enter the restricted books area, one needs invisibility, and not everyone has a Harry Potter invisibility cloak.

Now, we are stuck in a vicious circle.

"It seems that it is not possible to avoid taking any risks..."
