Chapter 34 The Path of the Strong

Section 1

In the next few days, Harry frequently traveled between the old Oak Road house and the Burrow, and Sauron had to admit that Harry and the Weasley family were very close. In the Burrow, Harry could have a lot of fun, especially after Hermione also arrived at the Burrow - they rode brooms and flew around on a clearing behind the Burrow, playing simple Quidditch competition; sitting in the yard while eating the ice cream made by Mrs. Weasley while playing wizard cards; Fred and George made some magic tricks, and several people experimented in the yard, while carefully avoiding Mrs. Weasley's surveillance...

Most of the time, Sauron just watched from the side, or returned to the old house in Oak Road to study magic. In fact, Sauron knew that he might be able to take good care of Harry as a brother, but he could not be a good partner like Ron and Weasley twins, accompanying him to experience the ease and happiness that children of this age should enjoy.

However, in the last few days of August, Harry was asked to stay in the old house of Oak Road, and Ron, Hermione and Ginny were also staying in the old house. Harry and Ron had no time to do any summer homework. Mrs. Weasley believed that the little boys could not calm down to study in the humble house, and at least they should find someone with good grades to help them. As for Ginny and Hermione, they insisted on following them out of curiosity. In this regard, Soren just raised his eyebrows, which can be regarded as trust in himself. As for the children living in the old house of Oak Road, Soren was just a little uncomfortable, and it was not disgusting. Moreover, considering that Harry had a few more companions, he would not be as lonely as himself.

Just like Harry's first time at the old house, Ron, Hermione and Ginny were quite curious, especially Hermione once told them that Sauron was likely to have some knowledge of black magic.

The old house is not big, but it is still very abundant to arrange four children to live in. Ginny and Hermione live in the same bedroom, while Harry and Ron live in the same room. After dinner, the four children gathered in Harry's room and chatted while playing wizard chess. As for Sauron, after asking some people to go to bed early, he went to the basement to prepare potions.

"It's not the same as what I thought?" Hermione said. "Do you know, if no one told me, I would think the person living here was Muggles."

"What do you think of Sauron's family?" Ron made a good move and ate Harry's chess piece. "Does bats and skulls hanging everywhere in the black castle?"

Hermione snorted, and gave Ron a blank look. "Remember, did I tell you about the girl I met when I traveled to France during my holiday?"

"Which girl?" Harry asked.

"It's the one with a dragon," said Hermione. "I saw a photo in Sauron's study. It looked very similar to her, and it should be the same person."

"So what?" Harry teased, "You're gossiping now reminds me of Myrtle."

Ron laughed out loud, while Ginny covered her mouth. Hermione angrily pushed Harry hard, almost letting him turn off the bed.

"Maybe it's Sauron's friend." Harry stood up and said, trying to change the subject, his joke just now seemed to make Hermione angry.

"By the way, have you heard that Sirius has escaped from prison?" Ron said in a low voice, "Dad said he is a dangerous person or a loyal subordinate of the Dark Lord."

The others gasped, and Hermione said with some concern: "Then Harry won't be in danger, right?"

The atmosphere was a little heavy. Harry looked at the worried people and smiled and said, "Who knows, that guy should be hiding from the Ministry of Magic now, how could he deal with me? To be honest, what I am even more upset about is what to do if I go to the guardian signing form of Hogsmeade Village."

The four of them chatted until very late, talking about the various experiences during the holidays. It seemed that the new environment always made people excited, so the next morning, the four of them dragged them until after ten o'clock to get up, which made Sauron a little helpless.

In the next few days, four people completed an unmoved summer homework at Sorren's house, except for Hermione. In Sorren's study, several large bookshelfs were filled with many books of various kinds collected by Sorren, which made the few people feel very lucky. Especially Hermione, after getting Sorren's permission, she excitedly read several advanced magic books that could only be found in the forbidden book area of ​​the Hogwarts Library.

"Look, I found this." Hermione excitedly held a big book in front of Harry and Ron. "It was a powerful potion. I didn't expect that Sauron also had this book here. The last time I prepared the compound decoction, my most regret was that I couldn't read this book well. It was too hasty."

"Oh, is that?" Ron was indifferent, and so was Harry. The two were having a headache about how to compile a paper on the history of the magic of the medieval wizards with two feet of parchment.

"If we had known that Sauron had this book here, we wouldn't have to please Lohat for the sake of signing." Ha said in a complaining tone.

"Come on," Ron whispered, "I bet that if Sauron knew what we did at that time, he would have petrified Hermione who came up with the idea, just like Ernie McMy, who was from Hufflepuff."

Speaking of Soren Petrochemical Ernie McMi, thinking of all the terrible things that happened last semester, Ginny, who was completing her first-grade homework, turned pale. Hermione gave Ron a blank look and sat aside to comfort the little girl.

"But then again, how is that guy?" Harry tried to change the subject.

"I heard from my dad that guy stayed in St. Mungo Magic Hospital for a long time before he was discharged." Ron said in a low voice, "It is said that Sauron used a very powerful spell on him and almost killed him."

"He deserves it, who made him slander Harry?" Ginny whispered from the side, seeing the other three looking at her, her voice became even smaller, and she blushed: "I mean, he shouldn't be talking nonsense everywhere..."

Section 2

On the last day of August, early in the morning, a few people in the old Oak Road house had breakfast and went to Diagon Alley in London through Flood, where they would meet with the Weasleys and his wife to purchase various books, potions, etc. for the new semester. Harry needed to buy a few new robes, Ron needed to buy a new wand, and as for Hermione, she wanted to buy a pet.

After everyone took the money from Gringott, the Weasleys took Ginny to buy things; Patsy left on his own; as for Fred and George, after exchanging excited eyes, they hurried away, so Sauron, Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked through the crowded streets together.

In front of a store window, many people were watching there. A few people walked over and found that it was a Quidditch boutique. In the window, there was a beautiful and surprising broom on a newly built podium.

"Just just came out...sample broom..." a square-faced wizard said to his companion.

"Dad, this is the fastest broom in the world, isn't it?" asked a boy younger than Harry, who was swaying on his father's arm.

"The Irish International team has just ordered seven or eight such beautiful brooms." The owner told everyone, "This product is the darling of the World Cup."

A witch with a large body left in front of several people. They can now see the instructions on the broom: brooms such as fire crossbows represent the highest level of craftsmanship. The broom handles are made of ash trees and are streamlined and exquisite. They are treated with diamond-like polishing agents, and have hand-carved registration numbers. They can easily control flights. Each broom branch at the tail of this product has been screened to make it streamlined to perfection, so this product is unparalleled in terms of balance and accuracy. The fire crossbows can accelerate to 150 miles per hour in ten seconds, and their brake devices are charming. The price is negotiable.

Soren raised his eyebrows. Although he never liked Quidditch, he could clearly realize that the value of such a broom is indeed the best. I think the fire crossbow is like a supercar in the eyes of Muggles. Whether it is a wizard or a Muggle, the desire to pursue perfect things is the same.

However, just like not everyone can drive a supercar, how many people can use the ability of this fire crossbow to the extreme? This is how humans always overestimate themselves and pin their hopes on external objects that they cannot control, but in the end, it is just a waste.

Harry stood aside, looking carefully at the fireboats in the window, and the desire could be easily seen from his face. Sauron couldn't help but smile. He knew very well that Harry had inherited his father's outstanding flying talent. As an excellent ball seeker, the attraction of such a broom to him was self-evident.

"Do you like it?" asked Sauron.

"Yeah." Harry nodded at the fire arrow, and he stretched out his hand as if touching the broom through the glass.

"But I don't need it." Harry said calmly, his eyes becoming less eager. "I already have a good broom, riding a 2,000-dollar wheel. I have never lost a game against Slytherin, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. If that's the case, why bother to buy the firebolt. Although the firebolt is good, it is not necessary for me."

Sauron was a little surprised after hearing this, and then nodded slightly.

"Are you confident in your own strength?" Sauron narrowed his eyes and looked at Harry, who was still staring at the fireboat with concentration, thinking: This is the real you, right? Perhaps even you don't realize that Harry - my brother, you and me are the same people, you have the same pride as you; you have the same confidence in your own strength; you have the same courage to challenge the future; you will eventually embark on the path of yourself and the strong!
