Chapter 9 The Store's Mascot
Aaron lay on the bed, looking at Abe sleeping beside him, and shook his head with a bitter smile.
All the things that he hadn't figured out before were figured out tonight, but he just couldn't accept it for a while.
I thought it was the deep love of my parents, but I didn't expect it to be... the damn family tradition.
The third method of getting "freedom" is the most difficult for others, but it is the easiest for him.
With his magic power growth rate, it shouldn't be a problem to reach the level of a magician before graduation. If he adds the magic points to the magic power every day according to the current sign-in speed, he may be able to enter the threshold of a great magician when he graduates.
But that's impossible. The various skills and magic items in the system mall are enough to confuse his eyes. If nothing unexpected happens, these magic points may only be less than one-tenth of the magic power.
Moreover, the family tradition is invalid for him in the years of school, which means that as long as he survives the remaining month, he will be "free".
This is good news, but why does he feel lost!
......
Diagon Alley, Aaron's Beverage Shop.
Because he had a "dragon-riding license", Ling Ge carried Abei out openly, but for the sake of safety, he still let it wear a coat to ensure that its wings and ears were not exposed.
But even so, this cute white "cat" also attracted a large number of customers.
Many female customers fell in love with this smart and cute cat in an instant and wanted to touch it, but they only had the opportunity when Abei was in a good mood.
As for when he was in a good mood, it depends on your appearance and what you bought in the store.
In short, only those who are good-looking and willing to spend money are qualified to touch it, and it doesn't care about others.
Thanks to this mascot, the store's turnover has increased by 50%.
Some people even proposed to spend 200 gold galleons to buy this pet from Aaron, but he directly put them on the blacklist.
200 gold galleons is almost the profit of his small store for a month, and it is also a huge sum of money for an 11-year-old child, but...Is your money enough?
You probably don't know that my monthly pocket money has to add a zero after this number.
Besides, Abe is a holy dragon, the only super rare species among dragons, and it is only worth 200 Galleons. Who are you insulting?
"Master, although you can keep it openly, you shouldn't put it on the counter on the first day!" Genes said with a wry smile. He opposed such a magical creature being flaunted in the market.
"Hey! Uncle Genes, don't be so rigid?" Aaron laughed, "Abe has been in my room all the time before today!
Now that I can finally keep it openly, I have no reason to let it stay there! What's the difference between that and house arrest."
Abe turned around and made a cute face to Genes.
Facing this magical skill that can kill both men and women, Genes had to lose, and his heart softened instantly.
It's not that he doesn't want to be strict, but Abe is the favorite of the Gaius family. If he suffers a little grievance, not only the young master, but also the master and the lady will probably have to talk to him.
"Okay! Young master, no, boss, as long as you are happy."
Aaron nodded with satisfaction and made a victory gesture to Abe. Abe also smiled widely, blinking his big eyes, looking very cute.
Time passed, and soon a month passed.
In the past month, Aaron's lifestyle has not changed much. He shuttles back and forth between home and Diagon Alley, but it is much better than before.
Because his baby son is about to go to school, Gaius and his wife have been at home with him these days, which makes Aaron feel the warmth of family for the first time in a long time.
And Abe's existence makes his boring life more fun. In addition to learning and practicing some simple spells with Gaius, he also teases it.
Don't say it, it's quite interesting to stroke the dragon, full of sense of accomplishment!
At this moment, Aaron was lying on the bed looking at his attribute panel.
[Host: Aaron Gaius]
[Magic power: 784 (Intermediate magician, your magic road has just started)]
[Talent: rare in a century (can be improved, magic power increases by 2 points every day)]
[Items: Drop of the Moon, Resurrection Potion]
[Magic points: 82]
This data made him feel a little melancholy. He always felt that the hard work and the harvest this month were not proportional. He really missed the four-digit days before.
Although it was only one day, it seemed that he was at the peak of his life now.
"Master, today is not the day for you to sleep in." Jins' voice came from outside the door.
"Got it." Aaron sat up suddenly, his eyes flashing with excitement.
He grabbed Abe next to him and put his clothes on him in his reluctant eyes.
"Don't be unhappy. Today is August 28th. There are only three days left before school starts. We have to go buy some things for school. It will be too late if we are late."
A dozen minutes later, Aaron walked out of the room with Abe.
"Master, you are half an hour later than usual today!"
"Stop nagging, but you can only take care of me for three days."
Jinns was stunned for a moment, and soon figured out the reason. He smiled and said, "It seems that Master is very confident in himself! Then I will wait and see."
"You will see."
Jinns shrugged and said nothing.
To be honest, although Aaron has a very good talent for magic, it is not enough to have good talent to become a magician before the age of eighteen.
But he will not spoil the fun at this time. I believe that after a few years, Master will understand how difficult it is and will not talk big anymore.
"Where are my parents? Aren't they coming?" Aaron looked around, but did not find any trace of Gaius and his wife.
"Well, the master and the lady had some important things to deal with, so they left last night.
Besides, the things you want to buy are basically in Diagon Alley, which is basically no different from strolling in the back garden. Do you need your parents to accompany you?"
"That's what you said, but they didn't even say goodbye to their son. How much do they think of me!"
After breakfast, the two men and the dragon walked to the fireplace. A green flame flashed, and they came to the shop in Diagon Alley.
"Clean up." Genes cast a spell to clean the clothes directly.
"Uncle Genes, can I do the shopping alone?" Aaron asked with some expectation.
"Master..." Genes frowned, "I believe you can handle these small things, but you also know the traditions of the Gaius family. There are too many things we can't do based on personal preferences.
Before you board the Hogwarts Express, we must protect your safety."
"Huh!" Aaron let out a long breath. He expected this answer, but it was still a little hard to accept when he really heard the result.
"There are only three days left. Can't you be flexible and give me, the future head of the family, some face?"
Jinns shook his head calmly and said confidently: "It is precisely because there are only three days left that we cannot let our guard down. Please respect the fruits of our labor for eleven years.
If something goes wrong in these last three days, it will be a stain on our lives."
Aaron's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this.
Good guy, really good guy.
If you don't agree to follow them, it's like committing a crime.
"Okay, follow them!
They are all neighbors, it's no big deal." Aaron smiled bitterly and opened a page of letter paper, looking at the necessities he needed to buy next, uniforms, textbooks, wands, crucibles, a set of glass bottles, a telescope, and a brass balance.
There are many places to go, Madam Malkin's robe store, Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, Ollivander's Wand Shop, Partridge's Crucible Shop, Slug's Pharmacy...
