#154 - Chapter 154: Becoming a Gold Galleon Warrior

Leaving Borgin and Burkes, Harry followed Sebastian towards Diagon Alley.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look back, only to find that the antique shop's door had been completely closed without him noticing.

Even the dim shop window was blocked by thick curtains, as if it was no longer open for business today.

A strange shop!

Harry thought silently in his heart.

Right, Sebastian bought two items, a Vanishing Cabinet and a Hand of Glory.

He wondered which one was his birthday gift.

Logically speaking, it should be the Vanishing Cabinet, right?

He didn't know what use Sebastian had for giving him a Vanishing Cabinet; a single Vanishing Cabinet seemed only good as an ordinary cabinet.

Thinking of this, he could no longer restrain the doubts in his heart and asked Sebastian.

"Mr. Jack, is that Vanishing Cabinet for me?"

"The shopkeeper just said that only a pair of Vanishing Cabinets can work, what use do I have for a single cabinet?"

"Vanishing Cabinet?" Sebastian smiled and glanced at Harry, "Who said I was going to give you a Vanishing Cabinet?"

No way......

Could it be that the Hand of Glory is his gift?

Thinking of that withered hand, Harry's face was filled with resistance.

"You're not going to give me the Hand of Glory, are you? I don't plan on becoming a robber or a thief!"

"Haha," Sebastian was amused by Harry, "Don't be influenced by Borgin's words, thereby limiting your thinking."

"It's actually a very powerful alchemical tool."

"Generally speaking, wizards who want to attack a target with spells cannot do without the blessing of vision."

"Then, can we create an environment of absolute darkness to deprive the enemy of their vision?"

"Then we take out the Hand of Glory and light a candle. In this way, even in the dark, we can see the enemy and launch a devastating blow against them."

"Especially, if you are being chased or surrounded, using the advantages of the Hand of Glory can easily help you escape."

My heavens!

Sebastian was indeed amazing; an ordinary thief's tool had become something of great strategic value in Sebastian's hands.

Thinking of this, Harry no longer felt any resistance and began to like this special birthday gift.

At night, this item is indeed a divine artifact.

But... what about during the day?

How to create an environment of absolute darkness during the day, and then deprive the enemy of their vision?

Suddenly, Harry's eyes lit up, and he thought of the method he used to fight Quirrell before.

Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder!

He had used this thing to deal with Quirrell for a long time back then.

If he had the Hand of Glory at that time, he might have been able to counter-kill him completely.

Harry was extremely excited and quickly shared his thoughts with Sebastian.

"Quick reaction!" Sebastian nodded approvingly.

"In formal dueling competitions, you may not have the opportunity to use this kind of tool."

"However, once you leave school, the one with the most Galleons is often the one who wins."

This made a lot of sense!

If he hadn't had enough Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder, he would have been caught by Quirrell long ago, and might not have been able to wait for Sebastian to save him.

And each Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder represented a shiny Galleon.

Harry nodded, agreeing with what Sebastian said.

He couldn't help but imagine how tricky a duel would be if he encountered an enemy wearing dragonhide robes and covered in various protective tools.

Even an elite Auror would have a headache facing such a fully armed enemy.

"Then what about the Vanishing Cabinet?" Harry continued to ask, "What's the use of buying a single Vanishing Cabinet?"

Its use is significant!

Not to mention that there is another Vanishing Cabinet at Hogwarts that can be paired with this one, the knowledge it represents is enough to attract people.

The Vanishing Cabinet is an extremely rare and powerful magical item, its main function being to instantly transport objects or creatures between two locations.

When someone enters one Vanishing Cabinet, they will appear in the other connected Vanishing Cabinet.

This teleportation function makes the Vanishing Cabinet highly sought after in the magical world because it can bypass conventional defenses and barriers to achieve fast and covert transport.

When Voldemort was at his peak, many families would prepare a set of Vanishing Cabinets, and then escape through the Vanishing Cabinets when Death Eaters attacked.

However, because the Death Eaters repeatedly failed, the Death Eaters' intimidation work was not progressing well, which ultimately angered Voldemort.

Then Voldemort personally took action, killing the alchemist who created the Vanishing Cabinet and burning all his information.

Since then, the Vanishing Cabinet has been completely out of print and has slowly disappeared from people's sight.

Sebastian had been coveting the Vanishing Cabinet for a long time, and he wanted to figure out the principle behind the Vanishing Cabinet and then restore it.

Originally, Sebastian's parents and grandparents each had a set of Vanishing Cabinets.

However, after Voldemort disappeared and the magical world was completely safe, they had long been torn apart by Sebastian.

It's embarrassing to say that Sebastian was arrogant at that time and wanted to restore the Vanishing Cabinet.

Unexpectedly, he was not skilled enough, and the good Vanishing Cabinet turned into a pile of scrap.

Now, the time is ripe, and Sebastian has decided to restart the plan to restore the Vanishing Cabinet.

To be on the safe side, in order to prevent another failure, he did not intend to directly tell Harry his purpose.

He just vaguely said to Harry: "The purpose of buying this Vanishing Cabinet is just to study it."

The two walked and talked, and were about to leave Knockturn Alley and come to Diagon Alley.

Harry pointed to the floating wizard behind him and hesitated to speak.

"Mr. Jack, won't we cause panic if we go to Diagon Alley like this?"

"Don't worry, there are often Aurors patrolling near the entrance of Knockturn Alley. We will send these guys to the Aurors then."

"Help them find a good place to eat and live."

..................

Holding the bounty received from the Aurors, Harry was a little dazed for a while.

It turned out that the old witch was a well-known Dark Wizard on the list.

In that case, if he was short of money in the future, he could completely work as a bounty hunter.

Seeing that it was still early, Harry followed Sebastian around Diagon Alley.

Fortunately, the Polyjuice Potion personally brewed by Sebastian was powerful enough to maintain the transformation for at least three hours.

They only spent up to an hour in Knockturn Alley, and there was still enough time to stroll around Diagon Alley.

Sebastian had already received the shopping list for the next semester from Professor McGonagall.

According to the shopping list, the two bought various necessary items for the new school year.

After buying a large bag of sweets for Dudley, Harry followed Sebastian towards the fireplace in Diagon Alley contentedly.

Looking at Harry's smiling, round, chubby face, Sebastian asked with a smile.

"Harry, your birthday is coming soon."

"Do you want to invite your friends to this year's birthday party?"
