The Necromancer in the Wizarding World

Looking at the neatly arranged potion bottles on the table, Matthews felt extremely satisfied and proud. He seemed to have sensed the rolling white magic stones. But this time, he was able to complete the task so quickly, thanks to the help and support of Senior Brother Bolin.

Matthews expressed his gratitude to Senior Brother Bolin, but in his heart he was thinking about borrowing some more magic stones from Bolin. Because the current opportunity is really rare, it is not easy to encounter such an opportunity again, so he took the opportunity to do more, because the opportunity will not come again.

At the same time, he understood Brother Bolin's character and knew that he was generous and frank, so he did not think there was anything wrong with making a request to him.

So he tentatively asked, "Brother Bolin, are you well off recently?"

Bolin frowned slightly when he heard this. Did this junior want to borrow magic stones again? The potions he just helped to make were enough to exchange for a lot of magic stones. His net worth was even higher than his own. He looked at Matthews, full of doubts.

Matthews knew what Senior Brother Bolin was thinking, and quickly explained: "Senior Brother, don't get me wrong. Although the potions I made before can be exchanged for a lot of magic stones, all my savings are tied up in them. Now I just want to borrow some magic stones for temporary turnover. After this period is over, I will definitely pay you back with interest."

After hearing this, Bolin felt a little relieved. He believed that with Matthews' current financial strength, it was unlikely that he would default on his magic stones, even though he had not yet returned the magic stones he had borrowed from him.

He looked at Matthews' sincere eyes and finally nodded: "Okay, Matthews, I believe you. I will lend you some more magic stones this time, but remember, you must return them to me as soon as possible."

Matthews was overjoyed when he heard Bolin's answer. He bowed to Bolin and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Bolin! You are really my good brother! I will definitely return it to you as soon as possible!"

Bolin was helpless when he heard such exaggerated words: "Then how many magic stones do you need to borrow?"

Matthews secretly rejoiced in his heart, but he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brother, if possible, I would like to borrow a hundred magic stones."

After hearing this, Bolin frowned again. One hundred magic stones was indeed not a small amount for him. His own net worth was only more than two hundred magic stones.

But considering Matthews' previous promise and his current wealth, Bolin decided to lend him the ball. At the same time, he believed that the misunderstanding between them would be cleared up.

"Okay, I'll lend you a hundred magic stones. But you must pay me back in time once you're able to make ends meet."

Matthews quickly agreed. These magic stones were like timely help. He believed that after a month, one of these magic stones in his hand would become two, and one hundred would become two hundred.

However, Oscar, who suddenly appeared, saw this scene. His eyes fell on Matthews and Bolin who were talking, and a strong mockery appeared on his face. He shook his head and thought to himself: "It's really a fight between two people!" He didn't want to participate in the behavior of these two people, nor did he bother to comment on it.

After confirming that Master Fernando was not in the laboratory, Oscar turned around and prepared to leave. He really didn't want to get involved with these two people, one was a treacherous and shameless person, and the other was a real idiot.

However, the moment Oscar stepped out of the laboratory, he seemed to suddenly remember something important. He stopped and turned to face Matthews with a playful smile on his face: "Brother Matthews, have you forgotten something?"

Matthews was confused by Oscar's sudden question, and he tried to recall if there was anything he had missed. He stared at Oscar, full of doubts.

Oscar saw Matthews's confused expression, and his disgust for him became stronger. He said sarcastically, "Matthews, you should return the magic stone you borrowed from me!"

Upon hearing this news, Matthew was stunned and speechless. He had indeed forgotten about this matter because of his busy schedule, but now he was in urgent need of magic stones. How could he have extra magic stones to repay his debts? He silently planned in his mind and decided to solve the problem of repayment after this speculation was successful.

However, Oscar did not give Matthews a chance to breathe. He continued to taunt him, "Brother, don't tell me you have forgotten about this, or that you are still penniless!"

Oscar's ridicule was like a thorn piercing Matthews' heart, and his face instantly darkened. He stared at Oscar. He had originally planned to repay the debt when he had enough money, but now! He really didn't want to pay it back.

He tried his best to suppress his inner anger and stay calm: "Brother, I didn't default on the payment on purpose. To be honest, I was just borrowing the magic stone from Brother Bolin."

Without waiting for Matthews to continue, Oscar sneered: "Matthews, who do you think you are? You must return the magic stone to me today. I don't want to hear any of your nonsense." His tone was full of disdain and ridicule, as if he had completely defined Matthews as a rogue.

At this moment, Matthews' identity badge suddenly flashed. He quickly checked and found that it was a message from Charles: "The magic stone is ready, where are you?" A hint of joy flashed in Matthews' eyes. Now he had an excuse to get rid of Oscar's entanglement.

He immediately replied to Charles' message and agreed to meet at Old Ward's Magic Shop. Then, he turned to Oscar and said, "Brother Oscar, I have found the magic stone and will return it to you later." After that, he left the laboratory in a hurry without waiting for Oscar's response.

Before leaving the laboratory, Matthews turned around and said to Bolin: "Brother Bolin, remember to close the door when you leave."

He walked quickly towards the Old Ward Magic Shop, but he still felt a little sorry for Bolin. He decided to tell Bolin about the points competition and sent a message: Brother, I have a piece of news for you. The third-class apprentice points competition will be held in advance in three months.

Regardless of whether Senior Brother Bolin has already known about it, this is an expression of my sincerity.

In front of the Old Ward Magic Shop, Matthews saw Charles waiting anxiously. He immediately told Charles the news that the academy was going to hold the third-class apprentice points competition ahead of schedule, and briefly described his plan to make money.

When Charles heard this, he was ecstatic. He had been living a carefree life by relying on gigolos, and now he had a chance to earn magic stones easily, how could he not be happy?

So, the two of them formed a joint venture, Matthews took out the 100 magic stones he borrowed, and Charles took out the 300 magic stones he raised, and they agreed to share the profits equally afterwards.

Matthews and Charles walked into Old Ward's Magic Shop together. Matthews shouted, "Old Ward, big business is coming!"

Old Ward poked his head out from behind the counter, recognized Matthews, and a hint of impatience flashed across his expression: "Boy, if you have something to say, say it quickly. I'm busy here."

Matthews responded with a smile: "Old Ward, this is a big deal, why are you not happy?"

Old Ward frowned and urged: "Don't dawdle, get down to business, I'm really busy."

Matthews did not keep the secret any longer. He quickly selected a series of magic props suitable for combat, including the most basic staffs and magic bombs, and quickly negotiated the price with Old Ward.

At the time of settlement, the total price was already as high as more than 400 magic stones. Matthews had already planned for this, and he used the same trick again, paying half of the magic stones first and settling the rest in a month.

Matthews couldn't help but teased, "Old Ward, you made a lot of money this time, selling so many goods at one time."

Although Old Ward was delighted in his heart, he still kept a straight face and said, "Remember to pay off the remaining magic stones as soon as possible. I'm counting on this money to purchase more goods!"

Matthews caught a glimpse of Old Ward's typical profiteer face, and a thought of playing a prank came to his mind, but he changed his mind and realized that the news itself was valuable.

He pretended to be mysterious and approached Old Ward, whispering, "Old Ward, I have a piece of gossip. If you think this information is valuable, how about writing off the remaining balance?"

Old Ward glared at first, thinking that Matthews's joke was too much, but soon he was curious: "What kind of news can be worth so many magic stones?"

Matthews raised his lips and said mysteriously, "You don't have to worry about this. Just tell me if you are willing to waive my remaining balance. I assure you that this news is definitely worth it."

Old Ward raised his eyebrows, pondered for a while, and then said, "Okay, go ahead. As long as I am sure that this news is beneficial to me, it is not impossible to exempt you from half of the magic stones."

Matthews smiled slightly and conveyed the news of holding the third-class apprentice points battle in advance to Old Ward through mental transmission.

Old Ward was shocked after hearing this and looked Matthews up and down: "Are you sure this is true?"

Matthews smiled proudly and said, “Of course, if I wasn’t sure, would I stock up so much?”

Old Ward pondered for a moment, then said: "Okay, if your information is true, I will spare you half of your magic stones. This is my bottom line. If you have similar information in the future, remember to tell me as soon as possible. As long as the information is useful, I will not treat you unfairly."

The old rascal and the young rascal smiled at each other, both understanding the value of this news.

Matthews asked Charles to go to the herbal medicine store and purchase a large amount of basic medicine materials using the same operation.

The next step is to wait for the right time, so that they can realize a surge in wealth. However, Matthews also knows when to stop, and high profits are often accompanied by extremely high risks. He reminded Charles to stop while he is ahead and avoid unnecessary troubles due to greed.
