Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

“Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long. Read” Then she glanced at Yulia, whose face was unsightly, “Probably not.”

Vanessa also noticed Anduin's guest at this time, but Yulia's sofa was facing away from her, so she couldn't see exactly who it was, only that it was probably a woman.

“Have you encountered any trouble here?” Vanessa still had a good impression of Anduin and asked worriedly.

“What trouble could I have? This is a friend of mine. It's rare to see him, and we're talking about 'life' and 'the future'.” Anduin smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Vanessa nodded in relief, “Okay, then I'll go back to report. Remember not to delay too long, or that woman might break in after a while.”

After saying that, Vanessa retreated and closed the door.

“How is it? I have always been honest and reliable and never lie. Have you made a decision now, or are you not satisfied until I hand over the key and your family's secrets to Minister Barnold?” Anduin looked at Yulia again and teased.

“This.” Yulia was now caught in an extremely tangled mood, and her mind was blank for a while.

Hmph, seeing that the other party was still so ungrateful, Anduin snorted coldly, got up, and pretended to walk out.

“Don't!” Yulia was shocked by Anduin's actions and quickly stopped him.

“Have you thought it through?”

Yulia sighed, as if she had exhausted all her strength. Now she was completely a puppet to be manipulated, and she had no choice but to nod helplessly.

“If I agree, can you help me rescue Torkil?” Yulia looked up at Anduin and asked for confirmation.

“Are you daydreaming? Is Torkil's situation something that can be easily rescued?” Anduin shook his head.

“Didn’t you say that as long as I agree to your request, you will help me solve this matter?” Hearing the other party's answer, Yulia asked anxiously.

“I said I would help you solve it, but I didn't say I would let Torkil go. He is Minister Barnold's darling now, but.” Anduin raised his right hand and swiped it under his neck, “I can help you get rid of him.”

“He is now under Moody's tight protection, with layers upon layers. How can you get rid of him?” Yulia said somewhat disbelievingly.

“That’s my problem, you don’t need to consider it.” Anduin sneered.

“Okay, let's say you have a way to get rid of him, then you should return the key to us.” Yulia took a breath and asked.

“Don't even think about the key. →”

“What? You won't return the key and you still want me to agree to this deal? Impossible.” Yulia didn't care about her image now and retorted anxiously.

“It’s impossible to return it to you.” Anduin sneered, “But I can destroy this thing in front of you after the deal is reached, and I can also keep this secret for you, so that your secrets will not be spread out.”

“Are you kidding me? Do you know how much effort we have put into the materials in the vault? You say destroy it and destroy it? Impossible!” Yulia shouted in extreme anger.

“Heh, then it seems that we can't reach an agreement. Since you are unwilling to accept peace, then welcome war.”

After saying that, Anduin got up and walked out, while Yulia was once again caught in a tangled internal struggle. It wasn't until Anduin's hand had reached the handle and twisted it halfway that she reluctantly stopped him.

“Wait.” Yulia almost gritted her teeth and shouted.

“That’s right, compared to the destruction of your family, isn’t it better for a family to be together, safe and sound?” Anduin turned around and said with a smile.

A family together? You just stood in front of me and said righteously that you would help kill my brother-in-law, and you still have the face to say such things to me? Yulia was so angry that she could only glare at Anduin resentfully, but when she thought of the huge Travers family and her underage children, she could only agree with hatred.

Anduin didn't mind this. After returning to his seat, he still looked at the other party gently, waiting for Yulia to speak.

“Okay, get rid of Torkil, destroy the key, and keep the secret for us, and you must also promise not to be our enemy in the future.” Yulia was really afraid of this young man now, young but full of bad ideas.

“I can only agree to let you go this time, but if anyone from your Travers family dares to provoke me in the future, then don’t blame me for not warning you in advance.” Anduin said unmoved.

Yulia thought about it again and again, and it seemed that there was no other way, so she had to nod in agreement.

“Okay, but after confirming the transaction, we have to sign an 'Unbreakable Vow', otherwise I can't agree to you.” Yulia said.

“Okay, but the 'Unbreakable Vow' must have a third party as a witness, and that witness must also keep it secret.” Anduin added.

“Okay, you will be the witness first, and then I will sign an 'Unbreakable Vow' with another witness.” Yulia nodded.

“Then, name your price.” Yulia sighed.

“30,000 Galleons, and if that’s not enough, use goblin silver to offset it. I want half of the things in your family vault, which must include 4 ounces of refined mithril, a 4-foot-long dragon heartstring, and I want a copy of all your family's collection of books.” Anduin opened his mouth and asked for an astronomical price.

Are you kidding me? Yulia was almost laughed at. This bastard really doesn't treat herself as an outsider. He asked for 30,000 Galleons as soon as he came up, and she knew best the value of the vault. If she agreed to such conditions, she might as well start a war directly and defect from England tomorrow.

“Impossible, I can only agree to 5,000 Galleons at most. You can choose three materials from the vault. I can give you at most one ounce of refined mithril. The dragon heartstring is no problem, and the value of the family's collection of books is no lower than those materials. I can only let you copy 20 books at most.” Yulia knew that now was the time to test her bargaining skills, so she could only desperately lower the price.

Unfortunately, how could a noble lady like her bargain with Anduin, who had been exposed to the market since he was a child.

“2,500 Galleons, I'll give you a little concession on the materials in the vault, as long as one-third of it, and a copy of 1,000 books from the family collection. This is already a big concession from me, don't be ungrateful.” Anduin gave enough pressure again.

Yulia shook her head again and argued again.

Next, Anduin and Yulia began to bargain over the price in extremely detailed terms, with Galleons reduced to one or two, and the materials in the vault ranging from a few or a fraction to a few ounces of each material, and the books were discussed one by one.

After more than half an hour of negotiations, the two finally reached a consensus on the transaction price.
