Chapter 200 Lucius and the Notebook (Subscribe)
The luxurious manor was deserted, and the servants who had no contact with each other seemed gloomy and deserted even though the sun was already shining.
"Good morning, Mr. Embers." Lucius smiled and shook Ash's hand. "You're doing well," he said.
Ash nodded knowingly, then slowly sat on the chair and said, "Mr. Malfoy, what you mentioned in your letter... I can accept it." Ash was referring to what Lucius said about commissioned by his friend.
"Every pure-blood family needs these kinds of help." Lucius said slowly, with a snake-headed scepter in his hand, and a parchment scroll in his other hand.
It was densely written with names of people.
"These are the mission objectives?" Ash asked slowly, and he clicked his lips as he looked at the densely packed names.
"No." Lucius shook his head and said, "These are my friends." He continued, "Not all of them want to go to Azkaban to kill someone...some of them have other requirements. "
"For example, people outside." Lucius' last words became weaker and weaker, appearing particularly low.
Ash nodded knowingly, he put away the list, he knew that the people on it were all soul-shaking trees, and they were the kind that could be pulled up with him.
Lucius watched Ash put away the parchment with satisfaction, clapped his hands, and recruited a new elf.
"Cross is at your service." The elf said with his head down, still wearing tattered clothes.
"Pour me and Mr. Embers a glass of water." Lucius said slowly, "By the way, call Draco."
"Yes, Master."
Lucius watched Cross leave with satisfaction, and then he said slowly to Ash: "Draco told me something about... Weasley." He almost said the name through gritted teeth.
"He said Ronald learned a new spell from you." Lucius looked at Ash and said, "I don't want Draco to be worse than those Weasleys..."
"Do you understand what I mean?" Lucius looked at Ash with a calm tone, but could feel a hint of urgency.
"I can understand." Ash nodded, "But..." He paused.
Obviously, Ash would definitely not teach Draco a spell for nothing, even the simplest... After all, he and Lucius are just a cooperative relationship, not a friendship relationship.
"I understand." Lucius nodded, at this moment, Draco knocked on the door and walked in.
Before him was Cross the Elf, whose clothes were more ragged than when he left.
"Good morning, Father... Good morning, Professor Embers." Draco waved his hand obediently, without the "scenery" in the school.
Ash nodded without saying anything. He looked at Draco and said, "I didn't bring my teaching tools. I'll teach Mr. Malfoy spells in a few days."
Lucius nodded and said, "Fifty Galleons?"
"No need." Ash shook his head, "I'm more interested in some interesting things collected by the Malfoy family."
"For example..." Ash looked at the notebook on the table and said with a smile, "That notebook."
Ash has always been curious about that notebook, he can feel the unusualness of that notebook, as if it is some kind of hint, this notebook is attracting him.
"Oh!" Lucius was stunned for a moment. He looked at the notebook on the table and thought for a few seconds before nodding: "Of course, Mr. Embers."
Coincidentally, the Ministry of Magic recently organized a surprise inspection of prohibited magic items in the manor, and this notebook happened to be one of them...
Lucius wanted to deal with it, but he didn't expect to be fifty Galleons with Ash.
Naturally, Lucius was very satisfied, he picked up the notebook and nodded, and handed it to Ash.
"I believe that Mr. Embers will keep his promise, even if I pay the salary in advance."
Hearing what Lucius said, Ash smiled speechlessly, and then stood up slowly: "Mr. Malfoy, if you need anything else, just write to me and just fill in Hogwarts as the address." .”
"En." Lucius nodded, and then said to Cross, "Send Mr. Embers away."
"Yes, master..."
As Ash left, Draco, who was still serious just now, immediately stood up from his chair. He looked at his father dissatisfied and said, "Father, I don't understand... Embers is just a half-breed, how dare he dare?" Bargain with us?"
The scepter in Lucius' hand hit Draco hard on the head, knocking him to a chair.
Lucius said bitterly, "First of all, he's a professor at Hogwarts...and he's going to teach a new course soon."
"At the same time, he is also a powerful wizard..." Lucius naturally would not tell his son about Azkaban, but he knew his son's bragging character.
So he just went on, "So, show some respect to Mr. Embers..." As he spoke, he picked up a paper towel and wiped down the chair Embers had just made.
"Even if you look down on him from your heart..."
After speaking, Lucius glanced at the calendar and continued, "Draco, it's time for you to prepare your textbooks. We'll go to Diagon Alley in a few days."
Draco nodded, but he was not in a good mood, after all, no one wanted to start school, especially when he thought of the faces of Harry Potter and Weasley, yes, and that Granger...
So what about being number one in the whole grade...
Draco frowned and left.

Ash returned to Florent's manor, he put the parchment aside, he was not in the mood to contact Lucius' friends now, he was curiously holding the notebook.
However, the black leather-bound notebook was not as magical as Ash thought. He opened the notebook, and found that there was nothing in it, not even a little ink.
This made him feel a little strange...
That strange feeling was still lingering in Ash's mind, and that strange sense of greed was tugging at Ash's heartstrings.
How weird.
Ash muttered and put the notebook aside. After all, he really didn't see anything. On the premise that he didn't destroy the notebook, Ash temporarily decided to study it later.
After all, I actually have a more busy job, and the little white mouse has no problems at all, and even mastered the skill of soulization more experienced.
More than once, it spirited out of the cage to eat the nuts Ash hid, which made Phil very dissatisfied. It changed from curiosity to disgust for this mouse.
It told Ash again and again that it was going to eat the greedy guy.
Of course, the little white mouse seemed to be dismissive of this, and it even dared to dance in front of Phil.
This phenomenon aroused Ashgang's interest. It seems that spiritualization and enchantment can make animals smarter.
It has to be said that Ash feels that this transformation plan is more and more suitable for Phil.
That's definitely not to say it's stupid.
