Chapter 110 Transaction (Part 2)
Seeing the five eerie children in front of him, Mr. Borgin felt a strong shock.
This shock almost pierced his heart!
He had lived for so many years, and thought he had a deep understanding of the Dark Arts, but the scene before him completely subverted his perception.
In this world, there were very few people who could create their own Dark Arts, and all of them were powerful individuals standing at the peak of the world.
However.
Mr. Lucifer, standing before him, had not only created his own Dark Arts but could also condense them into such powerful Dark Arts tools!
This was even more difficult than simply creating Dark Arts.
Because to stably encapsulate magical power onto a piece of paper required extremely high magical attainment and precise control.
Only legendary figures like Lord Voldemort could achieve this step.
And now, Mr. Lucifer had done it with ease.
Even more surprising was that he only used a thin piece of paper!
Mr. Borgin's heart was filled with curiosity and awe for Mr. Lucifer.
What was his background?
Could that person's background be...
Mr. Borgin dared not think any further.
He swallowed, trying to make his voice sound steadier:
"I've truly had my eyes opened today; compared to you, I am truly ashamed of my own inferiority. Forgive my ignorance, but what exactly is the purpose of these Five Ghosts and Seven Fiends Talismans?"
Ron smiled and explained:
"These Five Ghosts and Seven Fiends Talismans can summon five imps to fight for you. Each imp's strength is approximately one-tenth of the caster's strength. They will attack enemies under your command, buying you valuable time. However, it's important to note that this talisman lasts for about three minutes, and only one can be used per day."
Mr. Borgin exhaled, calming his excited mind:
"No, no, no, three minutes is enough, and once a day is also enough. You see, battles between Wizards happen in an instant. For such talismans, may I ask what their price is?"
Ron chuckled:
"20 Galleons each. If it were anyone else, I probably wouldn't even sell them."
Mr. Borgin said with some difficulty:
"I can't produce such a large sum of money all at once. How about we see if I can exchange them for items from my shop?"
Just as Mr. Borgin was negotiating with Ron, Harry stood up and said:
"I'll look around the shop first."
He then began to browse the various magical items and books in the shop.
Mr. Borgin saw this but didn't pay much attention; his mind was completely immersed in awe of Luciferand the fear of his previous misstep.
Lucifer's strength and background shocked Mr. Borgin.
And Leviathan, who could work by Lucifer's side, must also possess strength beyond his imagination.
Thinking that he had just spoken disrespectfully to such a person, Mr. Borgin felt a wave of fear, and cold sweat involuntarily seeped from his forehead.
He secretly rejoiced that Lucifer had not been angered by this; otherwise, he truly wouldn't know how to resolve the situation.
Mr. Borgin gently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, a smile reappearing on his face.
He said to Ron:
"Lord Lucifer, may I first count the number of these talismans?"
Ron smiled and nodded, saying:
"Of course, Mr. Borgin. However, I also have some other talismans here; please count those as well."
Before he finished speaking, another stack of talismans appeared out of thin air on the counter, emitting a faint golden light.
Seeing this, Mr. Borgin no longer had any doubts and began to carefully count the number of talismans.
After about twenty minutes, he rechecked several times and finally confirmed: "Lord Lucifer, there are a total of 1145 talismans here."
Ron nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and chuckled: "I trust Mr. Borgin's character. Let's calculate these talismans at 11,000 Galleons."
Mr. Borgin hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked:
"Could I exchange them for magical items of equivalent value? I know the items in my shop might not catch your eye, but I can provide some high-quality magical items to the best of my ability and offer the maximum discount."
Ron waved his hand and said:
"No matter, the price is what it is. I, Lucifer, am never short of such small change." His words revealed a sense of confidence and composure.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Borgin couldn't help but admire Ron's demeanor, and he complimented: "As expected of Lord Lucifer, your magnanimity is far beyond what mere mortals like us can compare to."
Ron smiled, then turned to Harry and said: "Leviathan, pick out any items in the shop that you think are good and bring them over."
Harry responded from the side.
Soon after, he returned, holding several exquisite wooden boxes and iron boxes, and even a glass case.
Harry gently placed them on the counter.
Ron gestured to Mr. Borgin: "Mr. Borgin, please introduce the characteristics and uses of these items to us."
Mr. Borgin quickly responded and enthusiastically stepped forward to introduce them one by one.
He first pointed to a transparent glass case containing a shriveled human hand, with a candle placed on a cushion beside it.
He explained:
"This is the Hand of Glory, an extremely useful item for thieves and robbers. As long as you hold this hand, the candlelight will only illuminate the person holding it, allowing the holder to become invisible in the dark."
Ron merely nodded slightly after hearing this, not showing much interest.
Harry, standing nearby, chuckled:
"Is this what you call a good helper?" His tone carried a hint of mockery.
Mr. Borgin hastily added:
"Of course, there's more than just these."
He opened an exquisite box, inside which lay a crystal-clear glass eyeball.
He introduced:
"This is the Evil Eye, a magical item with the ability to see through things. Neither walls nor obstacles can block its sight."
Ron remained unmoved, and said indifferently: "Still not enough."
Mr. Borgin was not discouraged; he pointed to the masks with terrifying expressions on the wall and continued to introduce:
"These masks are used to change identity; wearing them, you can easily evade others' tracking and identification."
Ron smiled and nodded, but then shook his head:
"Although these masks have some use, I see that they seem to be made of human skin, and the craftsmanship is a bit crude, falling short of what I expect."
Harry, listening nearby, felt a chill run through him.
He thought: The methods of these Dark Wizards are truly cruel, to use human skin to make masks.
Seeing that Ron was still not satisfied, Mr. Borgin quickly opened one box after another, finally producing an exquisite opal necklace.
He said excitedly:
"This is one of the treasures of our shop, the Opal Necklace. This is a Dark Arts item with a curse, made of precious opals. This necklace has claimed the lives of nineteen Muggles; anyone who touches it will immediately be cursed and ultimately cannot escape death."
Ron smiled faintly:
"These items are good; they're mine."
"And your shop is mine too."
Chapter 111 The True God Here! (End)
"Are you perhaps joking, sir?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?"
The entire shop was enveloped in black mist.
It turned out that while Harry was looking for magical artifacts in the shop, he had already spread talismans throughout the entire store.
The so-called search for magical artifacts was just a gimmick.
Seeing the situation, Borgin still wanted to fight back.
However, Ron wouldn't give him any chance.
"I'm not pretending anymore; I'm laying my cards on the table."
Based on his understanding of this world over the past few months, Ron no longer intended to hide his abilities.
It was meaningless.
With his Heaven-Defying Comprehension, he had already discovered that these so-called Dark Artspractitioners in Knockturn Alley were nothing special.
Ron easily subdued Borgin and, while he was at it, planted a slave mark on him.
For such a Dark Arts practitioner who disregarded human life, Ron saw no need to be polite.
Ron had Harry place all the Dark Arts artifacts from Borgin's shop in front of him and asked Harry to guard him.
"Heaven-Defying Comprehension"
At this moment, Ron's Heaven-Defying Comprehension was operating at its peak.
"God-tier Artifact Forging Skill"
Ron intended to seize this opportunity to fuse all the Dark Arts artifacts here.
He grabbed them, instantly refining them!
Light enveloped the Dark Arts artifacts in front of him.
A phantom of a lake appeared before him, and a spirit from the lake held a great sword.
The sword was large and heavy, with a silver blade reflecting a faint green glow, and its hilt and guard were inlaid with gold!
Excalibur!
His personal weapon, the Sword of Promised Victory, also known as the "Sword of the King," had finally arrived.
With the blessing of this sword, Ron's strength grew geometrically!
Having obtained this sword, Ron no longer needed to stay in Knockturn Alley.
Now, Borgin had become his subordinate, and controlling all of Knockturn Alley was only a matter of time!
Ron and Harry returned to Hogwarts School of magic.
...
Soon, a semester passed.
At the end of the first-year semester, in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts.
With a flick of Ron's finger, Lord Voldemort was immediately forced out of Professor Quirrell's body.
"Who exactly are you?"
Lord Voldemort's face showed fear, and his entire body trembled uncontrollably.
He found that he wanted to escape.
Yet his soul was bound within this small world!
Ron could now crush Lord Voldemort's soul with just a thought.
To you, I am but a speck of dust before the bright moon!
During this semester, Ron had maximized all his strength!
Tribulation Transcending Realm!
He was but a step away from becoming an immortal.
Lord Voldemort's tiny fake Golden Core was laughable!
Ron could easily crush him even with his Niffler.
But the formality still had to be observed.
His roommates, including Hermione and others, and even the magical creatures of the Dark Forest, had also reached the Tribulation Transcending Realm!
Harry, standing beside him, smiled faintly.
Without giving Lord Voldemort any chance, he bound his soul into his "Soul Binding" Ring.
Eight years passed quickly.
Many things happened during these eight years.
Ron transcended the tribulation and became a god!
A thousand years ago.
The gods had already severed the path to godhood.
Ron's action challenged the Titan Gods!
The wrath of the gods was something the small Blue Star naturally couldn't withstand!
However, there are times when humans can defy the heavens!
Ron led the human powerhouses, united with the Dragon, Elf, and Demi-human races...
Punching Zeus and kicking Odin!
The so-called Titan Gods, before Ron.
Were nothing but a single sword strike!
Now, Ron discovered that King Arthur of that year was merely a clone of himself from the river of time.
To forge a path to the heavens for humanity.
In the river of time, Ron had cast countless clones of himself.
At this moment, all the clones merged into this body!
Thus, he became the true god of this realm!
Extra 1: With incredible comprehension, he came to the world of American comics!
Deep within the endless universe, a radiant figure slowly emerged — that was Ron.
Once an ordinary human, he had now ascended to the supreme status of a God.
By chance, Ron sensed a world full of infinite possibilities — the Marvel Comics World.
A multiverse interwoven with countless heroes and villains.
With curiosity for the unknown and a desire for exploration, Ron gently waved his arm, and a brilliant light gate slowly opened before him.
That was the passage to the Marvel Comics World.
He stepped through the light gate, instantly crossing the boundaries of space and time, arriving in this world that was both familiar and strange.
Upon arriving in the Marvel Comics World, Ron immediately felt the rich energy fluctuations and complex spatiotemporal structure here.
He found himself in a bustling metropolis, with towering buildings, heavy traffic, and people dressed fashionably, their faces beaming with confidence and vitality.
"Which city is this...?"
However, beneath this seemingly peaceful surface, countless crises and undercurrents were hidden.
Ron strolled through the streets and soon noticed people in strange costumes with extraordinary abilities.
They either flew through the sky, burrowed through the earth, or manipulated elements, displaying astonishing power.
Ron nodded to himself, these were precisely the revered heroes and villains of the Marvel Comics World.
Just then, "Ding-a-ling-a-ling—!"
A series of urgent alarms pierced the sky, accompanied by roars.
A massive alien spaceship descended from the sky, instantly destroying several tall buildings and causing panic and chaos among the citizens.
Ron frowned; he knew this was an invasion of Earth by an alien force, and it was a challenge he, as a God, had to face.
He flashed, instantly appearing above the alien spaceship, powerful divine power swirling around him, forming a brilliant halo.
He gazed at the spaceship below, his voice low and authoritative: "Invaders, your actions will be punished!"
The commander on the alien spaceship, Thanos, had clearly not anticipated such a powerful existence on Earth.
They frantically tried to adjust the spaceship's weapon system, but it was too late.
Ron gently raised his hand, and a golden ray of light shot from his palm, instantly piercing the spaceship's protective shield and completely destroying its internal core system.
The spaceship lost control, began to wobble, and finally crashed in an empty area, causing no further casualties.
This battle made Ron famous in the Marvel Comics World.
People widely rumored that a mysterious and powerful God had appeared on Earth.
He protected the peace and tranquility of this world.
Many heroes and villains tried to find Ron's whereabouts, wanting to catch a glimpse of this God.
Even the Ancient One heard of his reputation.
However, Ron did not become complacent because of this.
He knew that the crises in the Marvel Comics World were far from over.
The alien invasion was just the tip of the iceberg; there were many more dark forces lurking in the shadows, ready to act.
To completely resolve these threats, Ron decided to delve deeper into the essence of this world and find the root cause.
He began to travel to every corner of the Marvel Comics World, from bustling cities to desolate deserts, from deep oceans to distant star systems.
He witnessed the rise and fall of countless heroes and also saw the cunning and cruelty of villains.
But no matter what difficulties he faced, Ron always remained calm and firm, using his wisdom and power to help those in need.
On one accidental occasion, Ron discovered a hidden secret in the Marvel Comics World — a mysterious power that could affect the balance of the entire multiverse.
If this power were to fall into the hands of evil forces, it would cause devastating damage to the entire Marvel Comics World.
That was the Infinity Stones!
Ron deeply understood the responsibility he bore; he decided to find the source of this power and seal it, no matter the cost.
After countless adventures and explorations, Ron finally found the location of that mysterious power — a mysterious relic deep in the universe.
This place was filled with ancient runes and powerful magic, a sacred place coveted by countless heroes and villains.
But Ron did not shrink back because of this.
With his firm will and powerful divine power, he successfully sealed the Infinity Stones, preventing the destruction of the entire Marvel Comics World.
From then on, Ron became the undisputed hero of the Marvel Comics World.
He proved with his actions that the power of a God lies not only in destruction but also in protection and creation.
His deeds were widely sung by countless people, becoming an eternal legend in the Marvel Comics World.
However, for Ron, this was just a new beginning.
He knew that as a God, his responsibilities and mission would never end.
He would continue to explore, fight, and grow in this Marvel Comics World full of infinite possibilities, forever.
