Hogwarts: I am the White Demon King

#32 - Chapter 32 Dumbledore: You still want to fool me

Thinking of this, Dumbledore picked up his Coke, took a small sip, and tentatively asked, "How many Galleons will it be?"

Sebastian's face immediately lit up: "Let me calculate it for you."

"A whole warehouse of Muggle items cost about 200,000 pounds! At an exchange rate of 1 to 5, that's just over 40,000 Galleons."

"Plus the warehouse rental fees, the students' Knight Bus fares, and so on."

As he spoke, he waved his hand generously and said, "I'll round it down for you."

"Just reimburse me 40,000 Galleons, and consider the rest my contribution to my alma mater!"

Dumbledore suspected he hadn't heard correctly, so he cleaned out his ears and asked again, "How much?"

"40,000 Galleons." Sebastian held up his right hand, showing four fingers.

"How about it? I'm giving you such a discount out of respect for you."

"If it were someone else, like Severus, it would be exactly what it is, and I have all the receipts."

What?!?!?!

40,000 Galleons?!?!?!

Dumbledore's head was spinning.

Forget 40,000, even if he took out 10,000, the professors would be eating wind next month.

Now he didn't feel relaxed at all, he just felt like an ant on a hot pot.

After thinking it over, Dumbledore spread his hands and sighed helplessly.

"Sebastian, you know the school's situation, it's really impossible to come up with so many Galleons all at once."

"Why don't we think of a way to figure out what to do."

Here it comes!

That's what I was waiting for!

Sebastian suppressed the excitement in his heart, covered his face with his hand, and pretended to be embarrassed.

"That's 40,000 Galleons, that's not easy to handle."

As he spoke, he rubbed his face vigorously, as if he had made a decision.

"How about this, Professor Dumbledore, why don't you teach me some unique magic?"

"Like Fiendfyre, Water Prison, oh right! And your Transfiguration, anything that can improve my combat power, teach it to me."

"These are the most valuable things I can think of."

"Consider the 40,000 Galleons my tuition fee."

"What do you think?"

Hearing these words, Dumbledore immediately understood what was going on.

Good lad!

He's waiting for me here!

Asking for money is a lie, coveting my spells is the truth.

Dumbledore was extremely pleased.

You think I didn't see through your trick!

Even if I took out 100,000 Galleons, you wouldn't want them.

But... my unique magic.

I didn't want to teach Sebastian before because I wasn't sure what kind of person he was.

But now it seems it's not impossible.

In my eyes, Sebastian is not only young and promising, but also reassuring.

As the richest man in the wizarding world, he has also been targeted by many dark wizards.

Wanting to improve his combat power is understandable.

And he can help me deal with Voldemort in the future.

In this case, teaching him my unique magic isn't a bad thing.

That's right, it directly saves 40,000 Galleons.

Worth it!

Moreover, this little guy's acting is seamless, if I didn't know his background, I would have been fooled by him.

However, it would be boring to agree directly.

Tease him a little!

See how this kid acts next!

After figuring out the key, Dumbledore felt relieved and leaned back in his chair, smiling and saying, "Logically speaking, you should apply in advance before the start of the school year and get reimbursed after passing the review."

"But the school can't let you suffer."

"How about we pay in installments, like reimbursing 5,000 Galleons first, and the rest slowly."

Done for!

This is not what I expected, why doesn't he play by the rules?

Looking closely at Old Dumbledore's reaction, with a smile on his face and leaning back in his chair, he saw through my plan...

Sebastian immediately wanted to slap himself twice.

I messed up!

And he turned the tables on me!

If I really take this money, my reputation will stink.

The students will only think that Professor Swann seems generous, but he's spending the school's money.

In this way, all my early investments will be in vain, not to mention buying people's hearts, I'm afraid no students will ever believe me again.

Besides, what's 40,000 Galleons!

What I've always cared about is magic!

As long as I can learn Dumbledore's unique skills, it's no problem to spend another 40,000 Galleons.

Alas...

What am I doing playing Liao Zhai with this thousand-year-old fox.

This is a ruthless person who has schemed against two dark lords until they were speechless.

My little cleverness is really not worth mentioning.

Sebastian quickly refused: "Professor Dumbledore, don't underestimate me."

"I know the school is not easy now, I will definitely advance and retreat with the school."

"Actually, I'm not in such a hurry."

"It's not easy," Dumbledore didn't humor him either, "However, if the school owes you money, I won't be able to sleep soundly."

"Hogwarts' reputation can't be ruined in my hands."

"How about this, I'll have all the professors come over, and everyone will brainstorm and think of a way together."

"For example, can we have Severus brew some potions, or use the herbs Pomona grows to pay off the debt?"

"In short, I absolutely can't let you suffer, even if I have to sell everything to reimburse you for the Galleons."

I'm numb!

Sebastian was completely numb!

Can we still chat happily?

Why are you putting pressure on me with other professors?

The old guy doesn't talk about martial ethics!

The two bargained for a long time, and finally, Sebastian had no choice but to say: "Professor, we all know that Voldemort will make a comeback sooner or later. Therefore, I want to learn from you to enhance my combat power."

"Is that so!" Seeing Sebastian say what was on his mind, Dumbledore became serious, "You need to know that once you learn my spells! In the eyes of others, you will be completely on my side."

Sebastian smiled freely: "Headmaster Dumbledore, I am the Muggle Studies professor at Hogwarts, in the eyes of others, I am already on your side."

"Moreover, once Voldemort makes a comeback, he will not let go of this fat piece of meat called Swann Alchemy."

"However, my knees have always been very hard, and I can't kneel on the ground and kiss someone else's robes!"

"Professor, you see, I really have no choice, do I?"

Hearing Sebastian's sincere words, Dumbledore smiled slightly: "Then what about the 40,000 Galleons?"

Sebastian's eyes lit up.

He agreed!

Moreover, Dumbledore is giving me such an obvious way out, it would be really foolish not to seize the opportunity.

He suddenly waved his fist and said magnanimously: "Professor, don't worry!"

"Just consider this little money on my account."

"I'll cover the subsequent course expenses as well, and I'll definitely not make things difficult for the school."

Hearing this, Dumbledore showed the kindest smile of the night.

"Sebastian, let's start with Transfiguration!"
