Chapter 1 The overprotected boy
Diagon Alley.
A young man in black robe looked at the bustling crowd on the street, then looked up at the sky that was slightly stained with twilight, and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
It has been eleven years since he came to this magical world.
Eleven years!
From birth to now, in the process of growing up, the world view, outlook on life, and values have changed to a certain extent, and only then have I gradually accepted the world.
Do you know how he spent these eleven years?
"Master, it's time for you to go back."
A voice came from behind Aaron, a well-dressed middle-aged man warning carefully.
After a few seconds, he saw that the boy had no reaction.
The middle-aged man took a slow breath and was about to speak when he was interrupted.
"Isn't there still a few minutes left? Let me stay a little longer!"
"But the master and his wife..."
"Didn't they say that I have free control over time before six o'clock?" Aaron said extremely speechlessly, "Also, what should you call me outside?"
"Boss," the middle-aged man said, looking very embarrassed.
"That's right, Jeans." Aaron nodded with satisfaction, "By the way, how much money did my little shop make today?"
"Almost eight Galleons." Genes said in a very embarrassed tone.
Eight gold galleons can't be said to be too much, but it's not too little. It can barely buy a magic wand in this world.
But this number seemed a bit unspeakable to the housekeeper.
He didn't understand why his young master left the huge family assets alone and instead came to this alley to run a drink shop that was not doing well.
But there was no way he could disobey the young master. Ensuring the young master's safety and returning home on time every day were his only tasks, and he couldn't care about the rest.
"Not bad." Aaron said casually, not caring about the number.
Jingle Bell......
Then the alarm clock on the counter rang.
Aaron silently glanced at the butler who was making a 'please' gesture, and walked to him consciously.
"Actually, I can't do it alone."
"Of course, young master, we all know that you can do it, but you still have to abide by the necessary rules. This is what the master and your father have told you."
"Haha!" Aaron laughed sarcastically and said nothing.
Aaron grabbed a handful of Floo powder, walked into the fireplace in the shop, read 'Gaius Castle' clearly, and then sprinkled the Floo powder.
A green flame suddenly ignited and then quickly extinguished.
In the blink of an eye, Aaron had disappeared and returned to his home.
The butler nodded happily. Just as he was about to take out his wand and use Phantom Teleport, he smiled to himself and put it away. Half a minute later, he repeated Aaron's previous operation.
After the two left, two figures were reflected in the wall of Aaron's Beverage Shop.
They smiled at each other and prepared a cup of hot tea for each other. It was obvious that they were not familiar with each other.
"When will this day end?" The person on the left said a little depressed.
"Who knows? But it should be soon!
The young master is already extremely talented, and he is already eleven years old this year and it is time for him to go to school. "
"That's true, but I'm more concerned about the shift change in two days."
...
Gaius Castle.
Every day at this time of six o'clock in the afternoon, there is always a house elf waiting by the fireplace, and today is no exception.
Boom!
There was a noise in the fireplace.
"Be prepared, the young master is coming back." The house elf reminded himself.
Almost as soon as Aaron appeared, the house elf used cleaning magic on him. The dirt on his clothes caused by the use of floo powder was cleaned away, and Aaron's clothes instantly looked brand new.
"Thanks, Joby"
"Master, it is our honor to serve you." Jobi said excitedly.
Immediately afterwards, the butler also appeared in the fireplace, and Jobi also repeated the previous magic, but Genes just nodded slightly, feeling that Jobi's actions were taken for granted.
Although sweeping and cleaning is indeed one of the duties of a house elf.
"Where are my parents? They haven't come back yet, have they?" Aaron asked complainingly.
"No." Jobi said with some fear.
"Master, although the master and his wife have not been home for a long time, they actually care about you." Genes said, "We have watched you grow up. You are definitely the happiest child in the world."
"Stop it, Uncle Jeans.
Whether you watched me grow up or monitored my growth, you know this better than anyone else.
I am already eleven years old, not a three-year-old child, so please stop fooling me. Aaron said, feeling a little speechless.
From the time he was born to now, no matter what time, as long as he is not at home, someone is following him, euphemistically called protection.
Genes' family has served the Gaius family for generations. He is the person Aaron and his parents trust most, and he is also the only person who can stay with Aaron and protect him openly.
As for the secret ones, haha! That’s hard to describe.
Although he has never caught them once, he can be sure that there are definitely no less than two of them, and they are all masters.
Hearing Aaron's words, Genes's face also showed a hint of bitterness, "Master, it seems that we can't fool you since you can remember.
But those so-called surveillances are absolutely nothing and are just figments of your imagination. "
If in other wizarding families, the heirs could have such protection, I don’t know how they would feel happy in their hearts!
But my young master always believed that this kind of "protection" was called surveillance and was an invasion of his personal privacy. He was very disgusted with this and even protested to his parents more than once.
Every time, the Gaius couple admitted their mistakes to their son with guilt and sincerity, but the next day it was as if nothing had happened, and they were doing whatever they were supposed to do!
Over time, not to mention Aaron as the young master, even he as the housekeeper became numb.
But no matter what, he must never stop protecting the young master. As a butler and bodyguard, all he has to do is grit his teeth and refuse to admit it. In short, the young master has no evidence.
When he can truly bring out the secret guarding power, it will prove that he can stand alone. Not only will Gaius and his wife not be angry, they will also laugh three times.
There may even be a party held for some inexplicable reason to celebrate this memorable day.
"Hmph!" Aaron snorted coldly, not understanding their shamelessness. "Then did they say when they would be back?"
"No, but it should be soon!" Genes was also a little unsure.
"I shouldn't ask you, that's what you said half a month ago."
"Maybe they have something very important!" Jeans said, "You know they are always busy with that."
Aaron gave him a roll of his eyes and didn't want to talk to him.
Because his parents send letters home every once in a while, and each time they are sent from different places, and without exception they are all tourist attractions.
This is not at all like what a busy person should do, but a bit like traveling around the world.
Parents who leave their sons at home while they go out to live happily are very generous.
Genes also guessed what Aaron was complaining in his heart, and said aloud: "Master, it's almost dinner time, do you think I need to prepare anything extra?"
"No need, just send him to my room later." Aaron said, walking up the stairs without looking back.
Jeans sighed helplessly and turned his attention to the house elf.
Jobi stood up straight in an instant and said immediately, "I'm going to prepare dinner for the young master."
"No need, the young master's dinner has been prepared. You can just deliver it to the young master later."
"Yes, Butler Jeans." Jobi said solemnly, and then walked towards the kitchen.
In the room, Aaron lay directly on the bed and silently opened the personal panel that only he could see.
[Host: Aaron Gaius]
[Magic energy: 700 (intermediate magician, your magic journey has just begun)]
[Talent: Once-in-a-century (can be improved, magic energy increases by 2 points every day, but the rate of increase will fluctuate to a certain extent as level and age increase)]
[Item: None]
[Magic Points: 1001]
Looking at this extremely concise and even pitiful panel, Aaron sighed silently.
He only got this system when he was nine years old, and he was quite excited at first. After all, with the system, his journey in this magical world would definitely be much smoother.
But when he understood the system, he suddenly felt that there were ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past in his heart. There was no novice gift package, only an ordinary panel and a low-key, luxurious and connotative system store.
Magic points are a good thing. They can not only increase magic power, but also buy rare items in the system mall. However, the disadvantage is that they come too slowly.
There is a chance to sign in once a day, and it only works in places related to magic.
Signing in at his house can only get one magic point, which is three digits in a year, but in Diagon Alley it is two magic points. Although there is not much difference between one and two, the temptation of doubling the number still makes him He opened a drink shop in Diagon Alley and worked hard to make money every day.
To be honest, their family doesn't lack that little money.
If we really look into their status, the status of the Gaius family in the magical world is no less than that of the 28 pure-blood families, or even slightly better. As for the Muggle world, the Gaius family is also in the top 20 on the rich list. .
But there is no way!
The family was very strict, and there were many places where he could sign in, but most of them were dangerous. He was followed everywhere he went every day. Even the shop in Diagon Alley was won after he had to act coquettishly in front of his parents several times.
Although he has been signed for two years and the magic points have only broken through four digits today, in Aaron's opinion everything is worth it, and today is the day he really spends money.
