🕑 Added 2019-04-04 09:23:43 +0000 UTC
Evan’s ideas exceeded a store selling joke products, to a magic props supplier that could cover all areas of the wizarding world.
It would be like the huge companies in the Muggle world that control the pulse of the economy and lead the development and progress of society as a whole.
Evan intended to develop his shop in Diagon Alley into that size and become a giant in the wizarding world.
They would usher in a new era and lead the future development trend of the wizarding world.
With his strong magic knowledge reserve and magic power, and the creative and commercial brains of Fred and George, with this combination, Evan was confident that they would definitely succeed.
Hearing Evan talking about his plan there, Hermione nodded hesitantly.
She was skeptical about it, but if things could really go that way, she had no reason to object.
It would be a very remarkable thing to be able to manage a store successfully and develop it into the scale Evan talked about.
"If it's really like you said, not just prank products, I can support you!" Hermione hesitated, "but there’s Mrs. Weasley..."
"Don't worry, she is opposed to it now, but whenever we can make some achievements, she will accept it." Evan continued. "I know what she is thinking, but neither Fred nor George is fit to work in the Ministry of Magic."
With their character, if they were forced to go to the Ministry of Magic, sooner or later they would also cause trouble.
It was better to let them give full play to their advantages and develop in business.
Hermione then asked for some details related to alchemy, and she was very curious about it.
Evan took out the Book of Abraham, the most authoritative alchemy-related magic book in the world.
Nicolas Flamel relied on its first part to become the most powerful alchemist, even though it hid most of its secrets beyond that.
The second part was not yet decifered for the time being, but the third part was definitely related to evil spirits.
Things were getting more and more complicated, and finding the treasure left by the Four Founders of Hogwarts was no longer as simple as expected.
In the face of a combination of Voldemort and an evil god, only a few would be able to do anything
Needless to say, there were also other forces such as Herpo the Foul and the mysterious vampires.
Evan took the book out. He was going to study with Hermione and analyze the information he had so far to perhaps figure out some clues.
Hermione was the only person he could totally trust at the moment, and Evan had no reservations about her.
As expected, Hermione became very excited and even a little flustered when she saw the book.
"I got full marks in ancient magic writing last term, but I don't understand most of the words here!" Hermione said, quickly flipping through the pages, "It's amazing to know that this was left behind by Abraham who was very famous in history as a great prophet and messenger of God in the world. Whether it is the history of magic or the history of Muggles, the book is definitely very, very precious."
"The first part of this book is related to alchemy. The first page has a painting of the the Philosopher's Stone!" Evan showed Hermione. "The scepter on the second page, which is being devoured by the green snakes, should be one of the items left by Salazar Slytherin. As for the third part, I told you earlier that in the strange space created by the evil spirit, the book suddenly flew out to defeat it, and then the portrait of the evil spirit appeared on the front page of the third part."
"Evan, I don't know," Hermione whispered; whatever thing or enemy was involved, it was completely beyond her scope of knowledge.
Hermione asked Evan to put away the Book of Abraham, and she hesitated for a moment.
The next second, without any warning, Hermione suddenly rushed to hug Evan, her weak body trembling.
"Evan, I’m scared, I suddenly feel very scared!" She said softly, "I am afraid of losing you."
Herpo the Foul, the evil Voldemort, the indescribable evil gods, and the unknown secrets hidden in the depths of history; these things were superimposed on everything, enough to drive most people mad.
"Don't worry too much, Hermione!" Evan said soothingly. When Hermione rushed over, his body stiffened for a moment, then relaxed and he patted Hermione gently on the shoulder.
In this regard, Evan also had preliminary plans.
First of all, according to Flamel, learning ancient magic and alchemy to make himself stronger.
Also, Voldemort’s Horcruxes must be destroyed one by one as planned.
While he’s at that, there were still secret treasure keys left by the Four Founders, which also needed to be located quickly.
Not to mention the treasure itself, the Philosopher’s Stones alone that served as keys could provide magic beyond imagination.
Evan had a deep understanding of this, and the Philosopher’s Stone was an essential item to summon and defeat the evil gods.
"Well, Hermione, don't worry, as long as we work together, we will overcome all difficulties." Evan said, and also hugged Hermione tightly.
In fact, he rarely saw the girl in his arms showing such vulnerability.
Hermione’s current appearance had an unspeakable appeal to Evan, and he felt that the girl in his arms was more beautiful than any other he had ever seen.
Feeling her heartbeat, Evan's heart was beating faster and faster.
There was a blank space in Evan’s head. Now he just wanted time to stop; he just wanted to hold Hermione like that forever.
The thoughts of the two people were in chaos, and at this moment, footsteps came from the stairwell.
Ginny was back, she was about to come in.
Hermione hurriedly rushed out from Evan’s arms, like a frightened bunny, with only a shy red face.
"Evan!" Hermione whispered, standing up.
It was too late. If Ginny saw this scene, it would really be…
Without too much thinking, Evan’s body changed rapidly, shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the blink of an eye, he turned into a black cat and squatted on Hermione's bed.
"Meow!" Evan yelled at Hermione and ran as fast as he could into the bedding to hide.
Hermione covered her mouth and looked with surprise at Evan hiding in her quilt.
She seemed to want to stop, to get Evan out, but in the end she did nothing.
Evan had just entered, and Ginny opened the door and entered the room.
"Hermione, what are you doing?!" Ginny looked strangely at Hermione standing by the bed.
"Noth… nothing!" said Hermione, staring nervously at her bedding. "I am waiting for you to come back."
Ginny knew that Evan’s Animagus form was a black cat. If she saw it, it would be awful.
"Oh!" Ginny said suspiciously, and walked to her bed. "Then go to bed, we’ve got to get up early tomorrow."
Under her gaze, Hermione nodded mechanically and slowly climbed onto her bed.
