"What is this?"
Hart curiously examined the metal device Sean handed him.
The object looked strange.
It consisted entirely of metal rings connected by a slim iron support.
One ring was large enough to wrap around a wrist, while the smaller ring near the front clearly held a wand in place.
At the very end sat a tiny hidden button.
Sean calmly replied:
"Put it on first."
Without waiting, Sean directly rolled Hart's sleeve upward and fastened the larger ring around the goblin's wrist.
Then he inserted Hart's wand into the smaller ring.
After adjusting everything properly, Sean finally explained:
"It's a wand deployment device."
Hart blinked.
Sean continued casually:
"With this attached to your arm, your wand remains hidden inside the mechanism."
Then he pointed toward the button hidden beneath the palm.
"When you need your wand, simply press here."
Hart immediately pressed the switch impatiently.
Click—
The wand instantly snapped directly into Hart's hand.
The goblin's eyes widened immediately.
Then suddenly—
"Expelliarmus!"
Sean fired a Disarming Charm without warning.
Normally, the wand should've flown away instantly.
Instead—
The metal device forcefully locked the wand in place before immediately returning it to Hart's grip.
Hart stared at the mechanism in shock.
"This…"
His breathing became slightly heavier.
"I think Aurors will go mad over this invention, Young Master."
Sean remained completely calm.
"Mass-produce it as quickly as possible."
Then he casually added:
"There's almost no technical barrier involved, so imitation products will appear soon."
Hart immediately nodded seriously.
"I understand."
Sean rubbed his chin thoughtfully for a moment before asking again:
"Can you acquire Silverblossom?"
Hart instantly looked troubled.
"That's difficult, Young Master."
He scratched his head awkwardly.
"Silverblossom is extremely rare."
Then he added hesitantly:
"I might find some in Knockturn Alley if we're lucky…"
"But honestly, probably not."
Sean wasn't surprised.
Silverblossom itself wasn't especially valuable.
The real problem was—
Almost nobody wanted it.
Because the plant's primary use involved brewing Ageing Potion.
And very few people willingly paid money to make themselves older temporarily.
As a result, demand barely existed.
"I see."
Sean nodded calmly.
"Go back and handle everything I told you carefully."
His gaze sharpened slightly.
"And don't expose any weaknesses to the Daily Prophet reporters."
Sean understood perfectly how disgusting Rita Skeeter and the Prophet reporters could become once they smelled scandal.
The Gringotts robbery story was absolutely massive news.
Those reporters would desperately search for evidence no matter what Hart claimed publicly.
Fortunately—
Even reporters generally feared goblins.
Very few people wanted Gringotts as an enemy.
Hart immediately bowed deeply.
"This subordinate understands."
Then he snapped his fingers.
His body slowly twisted strangely before disappearing from the bathroom entirely.
Almost immediately afterward—
"Boss!"
Malfoy suddenly walked into the bathroom together with Crabbe and Goyle.
"You're here?"
Sean calmly turned on the sink and began washing his hands.
Malfoy looked slightly confused.
"I thought I heard you talking to someone."
"You heard wrong."
Sean's expression didn't change at all.
"Is something wrong?"
Malfoy immediately remembered his purpose.
"Oh! Right!"
His expression instantly became excited.
"There aren't any classes this afternoon, and tomorrow's the weekend…"
Then he looked at Sean hopefully.
"Can we train longer today?"
Sean thought briefly before nodding.
"Fine."
Malfoy's eyes lit up immediately.
"You organise everyone first. I'll join later after taking a shower."
"That's brilliant, Boss!"
Malfoy instantly looked thrilled.
He turned and prepared to leave immediately.
But Sean suddenly stopped him.
"Malfoy."
"Yes?"
Sean looked at him calmly.
"You're officially Slytherin's new Seeker now."
For several seconds, Malfoy simply froze completely.
Then his entire face exploded with excitement.
Sean continued calmly:
"From now on, besides training in the training room, you'll also complete Quidditch practice."
Then his tone became colder.
"And if you lose…"
Sean smiled faintly.
"You already know what happens."
Unfortunately, Malfoy didn't hear a single word after becoming Seeker.
He immediately grabbed Crabbe and kissed him directly on the cheek in excitement.
Crabbe nearly died from shock.
Sean silently ignored the idiots and headed deeper into the dungeons.
.....
Every prefect possessed a private bathroom.
Sean had never visited his before.
After searching briefly, he finally found a large door labelled:
Prefects' Bathroom
Sean pushed it open and stepped inside.
The room was enormous.
Far larger than ordinary Hogwarts bathrooms.
And infinitely cleaner.
Dozens of golden taps lined the marble walls, while a gigantic bath occupied the centre of the room.
Most importantly—
It was quiet.
Sean lazily raised his wand and pointed toward the taps.
Instantly, steaming hot water burst from dozens of faucets simultaneously and rapidly filled the bath.
By the time Sean removed his clothes, the tub was already completely full.
The moment he entered the hot water, Sean nearly sighed aloud.
Every muscle in his body relaxed instantly.
Floating lazily against the edge of the bath, Sean quietly muttered to himself:
"Ageing Potion is necessary."
His expression became thoughtful.
"With an eleven-year-old body, doing business personally is too inconvenient."
Then Sean frowned slightly.
"The problem is still Silverblossom."
He slowly closed his eyes.
"Forget it. I'll prepare the remaining ingredients first."
Suddenly—
A sharp voice echoed across the bathroom.
"Oh ho!"
Sean's eyes snapped open instantly.
"Let me see…"
The voice sounded delighted.
"A little first-year sneaking into the prefects' bathroom?"
Sean immediately sank deeper into the water before turning sharply toward the source of the voice.
"And caught by me?"
