save the bachelors

Chapter 4043 4045 [Sad Family]

  Just as Xiang Nan was trying hard to practice wandless spellcasting,

"It's time for dinner." Mom Irene called out.

Xiang Nan heard the shouting and got up and walked out of the bedroom.

"Do you still need to eat?" Tobias glared at him and said, "You little monster!"

"Honey, don't do this, please." Irene begged humbly.

"Aren't you wizards? Why can't you make some money?" Tobias complained.

"My dear, I have explained to you that using magic to create money has no value and it is strictly prohibited by the Ministry of Magic," Irene explained softly.

The copying spell can be used to copy money, gold and silver, but the copied items have no value, just like counterfeits and fake banknotes.

And it is strictly prohibited by the Ministry of Magic. Once the Ministry of Magic finds out, she will be sentenced and imprisoned in Azkaban for several months or even years.

And Azkaban is like hell, no one wants to be locked up there.

"Waste, what a waste. You have to rely on me for everything. I've had enough." Tobias Snape complained loudly.

When Xiang Nan heard him say this, he felt disdainful.

There are many laid-off people. Instead of thinking about being self-reliant, they just drink and commit domestic violence, bullying their wives and sons. What kind of men are they?

"Okay, dear, let's eat." Irene advised, trying to suppress her sadness.

……

After barely finishing a dinner that was neither rich nor delicious, Xiang Nan returned to his bedroom and continued to practice wandless spellcasting to accumulate his spellcasting experience.

He has now mastered the levitation spell, the flying spell, the armor spell, the copying spell, the magnification spell, the shrinking spell, the disintegration spell, the restoration spell, the intermediate transformation spell, and so on.

But this is still far from enough, he still needs more practice.

Xiang Nan practiced spells the whole night.

All the flies, mosquitoes and spiders in the house suffered because of him. Sometimes they were made bigger, sometimes they were made smaller, sometimes they were turned into buttons, and sometimes they were smashed into pieces...

In order to avoid alarming Tobias, Xiang Nan not only cast the spell without a wand, but also used silent casting, trying not to make any noise.

Silent casting is to recite the spell in your mind so that your opponent doesn't know you are casting a spell, thus catching them off guard.

It is less difficult than wandless casting, but still requires great willpower and concentration.

At the beginning, Xiang Nan still needed to whisper the spell, but as his proficiency improved, he gradually mastered the technique of silent casting.

……

The next day, after eating a simple breakfast, Xiang Nan left home and came to the river amid Tobias' complaints.

He didn't consider helping his family change their current poverty situation.

Because an irresponsible father like Tobias and a cowardly and incompetent mother like Irene are not worth his worrying about this family.

He has another year before he can go to Hogwarts. By then, he can be far away from this home, or even never come back.

Arriving at the river, Xiang Nan continued to practice his spells. Crushing spell, fire spell, coma spell, explosion spell, left and right separation, flocks of birds, thousands of bullets fired at the same time, house collapse and ground sinking...

This stream was dirty and filthy, no one would come here to play, and no one would come to play with him, so here he could cast spells without worrying about being seen by others.

"Sorry, I'm late." Just as Xiang Nan was performing transfiguration and turning a frog into stone, Lily's voice came to his ears.

She thought she had arrived early, but she didn't expect Xiang Nan to arrive even earlier, which made her feel very sorry.

"It doesn't matter. We didn't agree on a time." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "You can come whenever you want."

"Thank you." Lily breathed a sigh of relief. "What are you doing?"

"I'm practicing a spell." Xiang Nan explained, "Look, it's broken into pieces~" He waved his hand, and the frog turned into stone and immediately broke into pieces.

"How amazing." Lily was surprised and asked, "Can I learn this, too?"

"Yes, but you don't have a magic wand, so you will probably not be able to control the spell, which may cause danger." Xiang Nan explained.

"Wand?" Lily asked in surprise.

"Yes, every wizard has his own wand, which is made up of wood and a core. Each wand is unique, with different wood, core, size and thickness." Xiang Nan explained.

"I will also have my own wand?" Lily asked in surprise, "When can I get it?"

"Before you start school at Hogwarts, you will receive an admission letter, which will tell you what books, equipment, and clothes you must have as a new student.

At that time, you can go to the Leaky Cauldron in London with your parents and take your acceptance letter, and then enter Diagon Alley through the wall behind the pub.

There is an Ollivander Wand Shop there, which is recognized as the best wand master in the wizarding world. His family has been making wands since 382 BC. "Xiang Nan explained, "You can spend seven Galleons there to buy a wand that belongs to you alone."

"Galon?" Lily asked again.

"It's the currency of the magical world, made by goblins. One Galleon is equal to seventeen Sickles, and one Sickle is equal to twenty-nine Knuts." Xiang Nan explained.

"Fairy?" Lily's eyes widened.

"Yes, there are fairies in the magic world, of course." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "They are also intelligent creatures, even more cunning than humans, and are good at metal processing and making magic props.

The silverware they make is not only exquisite but also not easily damaged. Goblins are also good at managing money. Gringotts, the only bank in the wizarding world, is managed by them.

And their ideas are different from humans. They believe that all items made by fairies belong to the fairies. Even if someone else buys the item, they only buy the right to use it temporarily, and the item should be returned to the fairy after he dies.

In their view, passing on items made by goblins to their offspring is as shameful as stealing. Therefore, they often come into conflict with human wizards, and even wars have broken out several times. "

"Wow~" Lily was stunned when she heard Xiang Nan say this. She never thought the wizarding world was so magical and interesting. "You know so much. Thank you for telling me."

"You're welcome. These are common knowledge in the wizarding world. Even if I don't tell you, you will know it sooner or later." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.

"Thank you anyway." Lily was even more touched when she heard him say that.

"Lily, you are with this freak again. I tell you, he is a liar, a scoundrel, and a rogue. Everything he says is a lie to you." At this time, a sharp voice suddenly sounded.

It was Lily's sister, Penny Evans. She pointed at Xiang Nan and shouted loudly, her facial features distorted.
