From Azkaban To Hogwarts

"I was too proud just now, I shouldn't have..."

As soon as he disapparated back, William began to regret it - the former Auror was still a thief who was short of money. He stayed there shamelessly, and he didn't know how many good things he could buy!

Galleons are gold, but if it weren't for the special situation here, no matter how many Galleons he spent, he wouldn't be able to get such a good opportunity!

'My face is tender, my face is tender...'

He complained to himself - if he could buy the opponent's magic mixed with magic, it would really not be worth spending another thousand galleons.

"Forget it, I'm lucky to have it. Life is not a game. You can't think about achieving everything... Those books alone are a big gain. It would be too greedy to think about anything else..."

He calmed down and bought the cow for the price of eggs. It was indeed too much to worry about other people's pigs.

"Let's check what we have gained - I will probably have to learn Russian when I go back, it will give me a headache..."

"Are there no magical creatures that understand Russian? If you waste a meal coupon by catching a parrot that can only speak Russian, can you skip the step of learning Russian?"

"Why can't wizards be considered magical creatures?"

While complaining, he ceremoniously put on his gloves and took protective measures, and began to read through the books one by one, which cost him a thousand galleons.

"This is a typical black magic book in a private collection..."

William looked at the book in his hand. Its decoration style and material were different from most books on the market. He even felt the presence of a curse on the book.

‘Could it be that the original organization over there confiscated the books? ’

It's not impossible, even the black market is busier than the normal market, and William won't be frightened no matter what happens.

The Ministry of Magic of each country has different views on black magic. Durmstrang even directly teaches black magic. This kind of banned book is what can be sold for money in the chaotic era. It is normal for it to be sold.

"Judging from the gestures used to cast spells, there are only three magics I have mastered," William took a breath. "This book is enough to send someone to Azkaban for two years..."

The laws in the magical world are very magical. It is not illegal to master black magic, and it is not illegal to use some of it, but it is illegal to collect black magic items and books... It is strange, but everyone knows why.

But this has nothing to do with William - as the professor of magical self-defense at Hogwarts, his use of black magic is completely in compliance with the law, and he can also carry black magic books. He can even provide students with instructions when he feels it is necessary. Let them read some books related to black magic.

Then I rummaged through a pile of more than twenty books in total, including eleven books on black magic alone...

This number was frightening to William. If any ordinary wizard was found to be carrying so many black magic books, he could go to Azkaban and live among the Death Eaters - this thing is enough to send someone to Azkaban. Got it.

'There is even a training manual similar to the Auror system...Although it is only part of it, are these people crazy? ’

Relying on the simple Russian skills left behind by previous smuggling, William found something hard inside - although many of the letters were unfamiliar, judging from the training content and illustrations inside, it would be impossible for a striker to learn such advanced knowledge. .

'That's outrageous...comparable to selling an aircraft carrier...'

After sighing twice about being a prodigal, William firmly decided to learn Russian.

The Auror training courses in the British wizarding world are completely in the hands of the Ministry of Magic and will not be leaked at all. The only way to buy this thing is that he accidentally cut off the bear's paw this time...

'I have to hide it, otherwise I won't be able to leave the border even with the endorsement of Hogwarts...'

As soon as such thoughts came up, they naturally fell away - given the current level of chaos, if a thousand Galleons were hit, none of the things that should be checked when leaving the country would be checked, let alone three professors leaving the country together. Wouldn't have been checked...

"William, what books are you reading over there? I have very good news here!"

Adams ran in with a bang, his expression full of joy, "It's done, we can fly directly to the other market you mentioned the day after tomorrow, that is, the trading market near Vladivostok, together with their official transportation."

"Official shipping?"

"That's probably what it means," Adams said, smelling of alcohol. "It's pretty much the same. It goes straight all the way, and there are people who look like hitters to help protect it all the way."

"Direct official shipping channel? What did you do Adams?"

"I bought some rare herbs. In recent years, a lot of unique herbs have grown here, and the prices are not too expensive. I bought them directly. Anyway, Professor Snape has been complaining about the lack of raw materials for a long time. "No." Adams shrugged nonchalantly, "Professor Snape can resell it if it's no longer needed. I don't think there are any good herbs that are hard to sell."

…

This is a bit full of words, but the herbs produced by Hogwart are really worth selling...

Not long after, Singed also came back - basically with the same rhetoric, he solved the problem in a roundabout way and went directly with the official transport team without any safety concerns.

"William, this broomstick is really great!"

Adams rode the uprooted tree with excitement on his face, and his tone was full of joy - even though it was now the return trip, his excitement had not been cancelled.

That's right, it was a big tree that had been uprooted, and even the branches and leaves were not treated much. It was temporarily added with flying magic and a simple spell to keep comfortable, plus a little disembodiment charm. It was enough - it was treated as transport when it arrived at the destination. The logs were thrown down. Although they are simple, the comfort of those disposable magic is not bad, and with the freshness, it is easy for people to fall in love with this feeling.

It's just that William can't be as cheerful as Adams.

The herbs that I had been thinking about were easily obtained, and some precious materials were obtained without much premium. I even easily bought some random old books and materials that I didn't know were useful.

The purchasing experience is great, but I still don’t know what’s wrong.

"Yeah, it's quite an experience, I feel it."

William steeled himself and responded.

This emotion didn't ease until he returned to the Leaky Cauldron and stayed in the familiar environment for a while.

Sunny on July 28th

After drinking a little wine, the study of Russian has been put on the agenda. I am still not proficient in the Patronus Charm. The books I bought are still lying in the box...

A lot of the souvenirs I bought at that time have been given out as gifts, but now I still feel not in a good mood. I probably understand why, the market over there seems to have been divided...

And the herbal medicine association seems to be private, so it can...

Are there oligarchs in the wizarding world...

Although it has been predicted for a long time, how long will it continue to decline?

Alas, I was still unhappy, so I went drinking...]
