A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 179: Ouroboros


Passing through the wall behind the Leaky Cauldron, they came directly to Madam Malkin's robe store on the north side of Diagon Alley.

According to Professor Flitwick, although the shop sells school uniforms, dress robes and traveling cloaks, Madam Malkin will be happy to have a suit tailored for you if you're willing to contribute a little money.

Madame Malkin is a short and fat witch with a big smile, wearing a deep purple robe, "Welcome to visit, want to buy a robe, or a charming ball gown, sir ?” She had a tape measure and wand in her hand.

Felix pointed to Dobby, "Ma'am, it's not me, it's him."

Mrs. Malkin's eyes fell on Dobby, and she said in embarrassment: "Oh, uh..."

"Ma'am, I was introduced by Professor Filius Flitwick, who is full of praise for your craftsmanship."

"It's my pleasure too."

Under Felix's words and money offensive, Mrs. Malkin made a small suit on the spot, which made Dobby look brand new, like an English butler.

"Sir, you are very kind to your house-elf, but I don't know if I should remind you, clothes..."

"Ma'am, Dobby is my friend, he is free."

Along the way, Dobby thanked Felix in different ways, but Felix told him that this was the uniform dress code, so he gave up.

Felix took him to the dilapidated building of LCA Comics Publishing House, and knocked on Andis' door.

I haven't been here for more than ten days, and the smell in the house seems to have gathered again, but Andis's mental outlook has improved a lot. At least he changed into a clean dress.

He pulled Felix closer to the room, took out a stack of manuscripts, and said with a strong nasal voice: "I have redrawn part of the manuscript and added exclusive magic, how about it?"

Felix flipped through it carefully, and found that each page of the comic strip was divided into five to ten grids. When one page was opened, the characters in these grids would start to move in a fixed order. After the plot ended, the second one started to play, and the timing was just right.

It can be said that a page of comic strips is a segment in a movie.

"The magic on it is very interesting." Felix said.

If he adds another page on this basis, so that it can show the content of all the grids in the entire comic book in turn, will it achieve the effect of a movie?

He expressed this idea to Andis.

"Huh?"

Andis thought about it in his mind, "It seems to be possible?" He said in an uncertain tone.

"I don't know the magic of your publishing house, unless..."

"This is an untold secret." Andis said quickly.

"Okay," Felix smacked his lips. He looked at the sketch in his hand and kept rubbing its surface: "Then judge with your professional eyes, is the idea I just said feasible?"

Andis didn't answer. He thought for a longer time this time, and as a result, the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he kept turning around the room.

"Absolutely possible! This is a new breakthrough in the magic world, my God, we will be a hit!"

"How long do you think it will take you to improve?"

"It's hard to say, this is a new technology, and it will definitely take time. I already have two ideas. I haven't done nothing these years, and my grandfather's previous research can also help. But the magic has changed, The whole process needs to be adjusted, including re-selecting the most suitable carrier and paint for the comic book. This takes time and requires—" Andis paused awkwardly.

"Need money again?"

"...Yeah."

Felix thought about it, "I can provide almost 20,000 Galleons, but what can I get?"

Andis struggled, he was hesitating, this is a key choice, maybe the LCA comics will come back to life in his hands.

But his judgments over the past ten years were all wrong, what about this time?

"Are you Felix Haip?" he asked through gritted teeth.

Felix glanced at him, what do you mean? I have introduced myself. The elf Dobby stood up proudly and said, "That's right, this is the great Mr. Felix Heap!"

Andis glanced at Dobby and didn't pay much attention. He looked at Felix and said slowly: "I asked someone to inquire about it during this time, and they said you have a lot of energy."

"Say it straight, Andis, don't go around in circles."

"Five thousand Galleons! If you can help me get rid of the Ministry of Magic, I am willing to convert this money into investment, and exchange it for 20% of the publishing house, no! 30% of the shares."

"Get the Ministry of Magic?"

“I hope this book will be officially recommended and placed in bookstores in other countries. It will save a lot of time.” Andis said.

"What's the trouble?"

"It has something to do with some pure-blood families, they may not like this book." Andis said hesitantly.

"But none of my previously published books have any effect?" Felix asked curiously.

"Different publishing houses are different. I have a criminal record, and the subject matter of your book..." He hinted that Felix knew it, so your previous published works offended some people. right?

"I need to see your controversial drawings first." Felix agreed without haste.

If there is a problem with Andis, he will refuse decisively.

After a long while, Felix raised his head from a book manuscript. He had only obtained the sales data of LCA Publishing House before, but he hadn't read all the books yet.

It can be seen that Andis has indeed worked hard to revitalize the publishing house in recent years, and the subject matter has changed, but the villain of one book is a pure-blood family. Although he did not specifically refer to which one, it obviously caused some dissatisfied.

Although in his opinion, this is a normal creation.

"Tsk tsk!"

Felix thought for a moment. He needed to pay 5,000 galleons, limited time and energy, and he needed to solve possible troubles; and the benefit was to get 30% of the other party's shares.

He is also optimistic about the development of new technologies and has confidence in LCA.

"Yes, but I want all your magic data."

Andis froze for a moment~IndoMTL.com~Of course, this is your due right, as long as you don't reveal it casually. "

Felix nodded, then he's all right.

Money is a small matter, this kind of exclusive magic is what he values. But at least part of the stable income can be obtained in the future, saving him from going to the black market to beat sap.

This is different from the 50% shares that the twins said. He didn't intend to ask for that money at all.

Andis said to him, "Let's sign a magic contract, both parties can rest assured."

Felix had no reason to refuse. He took out a piece of parchment, on which a string of golden words appeared, including the obligations and rights that both parties should fulfill. Then the two left their names and blood.

Under the watchful eyes of the three, the golden flames burned the parchment to ashes, but the writing on it was shining brightly and condensed in mid-air.

Soon, the golden characters melted and condensed into two glowing balls. Felix and Andis are one by one.

This contract is the most common "witness contract". It has no mandatory binding force, but it is protected by the Ministry of Magic. If something goes wrong, you only need to take the ball to the Ministry of Magic to appeal, and the Ministry of Magic will come forward to solve the problem.

With the contract ball in his hand, Andis breathed a sigh of relief.

It can be said that he has gambled part of his future, but he is full of expectations now, because one of his friends said mysteriously: "Work with that gentleman, you will never worry about losing money. He is a proud Slytherin , not the same as those greedy pure-blood trash."

Felix looked at the elf, "Dobby, I need you to come here at least once a day to inquire about the progress and troubles, and if necessary, you can negotiate with the pure-blood family on my behalf." He tapped his wand on the elf's chest, A figure 8 Ouroboros logo appears.

The pattern is motionless, but when your eyes look over it, it will swim quickly, and the green snake eyes are shining.
