Chapter 89
After waving it, John reserved some space on the sword, preparing to use it as a location for adding magic spells later.
The current sword can be regarded as an upgraded version of Ironwick's Sword in all aspects.
"Let's call you Silverwick."
Nodding with satisfaction, John stuffed the sword into his small bag.
This small bag is worthy of being the work of a master alchemist. The traceless stretching spell inside has a stable structure and a very large space.
…
night.
John puts on a silver mask and a green robe.
With a wave of the wand, his body disappeared and reappeared in Knockturn Alley.
After apparating, John's entry and exit became much easier.
Tang Mi was already waiting there, with a rickety old man beside him.
There was a crackling sound and John appeared before them.
The old man was shaking with excitement and wanted to kneel down.
John looked at Tang Mi, who explained: "Sir, this is Old Jack from the werewolf community, here to seek your help."
Werewolf community?
Fenrir, who had his arms and souls taken away last time, was not the leader of the werewolf community.
John said solemnly: "Say your request."
Old Jack's voice was hoarse and he said: "Dear Johnny Silverhand, we hope to get your protection. Without Fenrir, those werewolves fled in all directions, leaving us a group of old, weak, sick and disabled."
It turns out that after John killed Fenrir that day, the werewolves in the werewolf community fled one after another.
They are all guys with human lives in their hands. If they are caught, they can only keep company with the dementors.
The old and weak like Old Jack are at the bottom of the werewolf community. After they lose their asylum, there are dark wizards who want to kill them all.
In desperation, they had no choice but to seek help from the person who started it all.
After John listened, he first looked at Tang Mi and asked if it was true.
"Sir, Old Jack's group of werewolves are all thin and weak werewolves. They don't have the strength to kill wizards."
Hearing this, John nodded and looked at the nervous old Jack. John said calmly: "I accept your request for help. As a condition, I need you to govern the werewolf community well."
Werewolves are a powerful force, and there are many young werewolves in the werewolf community who were bitten by Fenrir.
John just needs to guide them well and they will become a powerful force in the future.
Old Jack was so excited that he stammered: "Thank you very much, Sir Johnny Silverhand. May Merlin bless you."
A few days later, the body of a dark wizard was thrown out of the werewolf community.
A mark belonging to Johnny Silverhand rises from the werewolf community, causing the dark wizards to flee in terror.
Not only that, John also sent a monthly quota of wolfsbane potion to the werewolves in the community to relieve them from the pain of the full moon.
This move once again made Johnny Silverhand famous.
Even the Daily Prophet gave him an exclusive interview, and the reporter was Rita.
"I hope there won't be any weird arguments."
John glanced at Rita, who was so frightened that she trembled and nodded hurriedly to promise that she would write well.
A report called Johnny Silverhand, the Good Man, was published in the newspaper. It said that Johnny Silverhand's wish was for world peace and that all little wizards would no longer be troubled by hunger.
I heard that Rita also suggested that the editor-in-chief give Johnny Silverhand an annual charity award, but the editor-in-chief refused.

Chapter 103 Level 4 Runes and Ancient Magic
The owl bumped against the window, and it didn't take much to figure out that it was the Weasley's old owl.
Opening the window and lifting the owl up, John got the letter from its mouth.
"Traveled to Egypt?"
Ron wrote to John and told John that their family was going to Egypt for a trip, and apologized to John that the invitation to the Burrow could only be postponed.
"I would have forgotten about it if I didn't mention it."
Ron invited John to the Burrow in second grade, but John completely forgot about it after he returned home.
He thought Ron wouldn't invite him, after all, he was thinking about how to experiment with Scabbers.
Percy also sent a letter, thanking John for helping him win the position of student council president, and vaguely mentioned that he wanted to work in the Ministry of Magic in the future.
"It seems that it's done, Ministry of Magic. I remember that he did well in the Ministry of Magic."
As an outlier in the Weasley family, Percy can be said to have gained a lot of experience points for the generals.
From prefect to Head Boy, and then to work in the Ministry of Magic.
Every step has a clear goal.
John smiled: "In that case, what if I help you."
He took out his quill and wrote a letter to Old Barty Crouch. After John's observation and understanding of this person, he knew that he was a person worthy of close friendship.
Not to mention anything else, John was very impressed by Barty Crouch Sr.'s act of killing relatives.
I think Old Barty would also be very interested in the talented Percy going there.
After dealing with the daily correspondence, John picked up a copy of the Daily Prophet.
Johnny Silverhand's turmoil is gradually over, and the opening of a wary black magic museum seems to show that Johnny Silverhand is not the kind of extremely greedy dark wizard.
Now the newspaper cover showed a familiar figure, Lockhart.
He was awarded the Most Charming Smile Award for the sixth time by Wizarding Weekly, and Lockhart's new book was reported in the newspaper.
""I Swing the Sword at Hogwarts" became a hit in the wizarding world upon its release. It has been the best-selling book for three consecutive weeks. Gilderoy Lockhart's experience at Hogwarts has added to his legendary life. A brilliant move.”
John had to say that Lockhart was a talent. As long as his affairs were not exposed, then Lockhart would be the well-deserved number one in the wizarding world.
This book quickly became popular throughout the magical world. Although the content in it was a bit watery, Lockhart was very clever this time and chose to use a dual protagonist method.
A handsome, powerful magic professor paired with a talented Hogwarts legendary student.
Everything that happens in it is also a real adaptation, including the teachings and the basilisk, and the truth is revealed at the end.
From beginning to end, it can be called a masterpiece.
I, John Wick, would like to call him the strongest.
"Maybe I can continue to package him."
It's a shame for a top-notch person to have such a money-spinner without using it.
John touched his chin, feeling that he needed to add fuel to the fire.
I took out a pen and paper and sent a letter to Rita Skeeter.
I believe that with the name of the Daily Prophet, Lockhart can continue to create miracles.
He was pushing the situation behind the scenes, so he was certainly not showing off his courtesy for nothing. He had money to buy Lockhart's book.
Let Johnny Silverhand take the copyright, and John and Lockhart split the rights.
Managing this book well will also bring a lot of income to John.
Head to the basement.
This place has completely become John's territory, and there are many dangerous props inside, so John will lock it when he leaves.
After a day of knowledge intake and practice, John's runes were successfully upgraded.
At double material level 4, John opened "Fairy Forging Science" again, and now he could understand everything in it.
It has to be said that fairies can be nourished in the magical world, and this magical casting method is unique.
"Fairy magic..."
Looking at the goblin magic inside, John fell into deep thought.
This kind of magic is also called ancient magic and is a very ancient existence.
Specifically, it can be pushed back to the period before the Big Four. At that time, the goblins were not under the jurisdiction of wizards.
Fairy magic does not rely on wands, it is like innate magic.
"Ancient runes are also one of the ancient magics. No wonder runes are needed."
After carefully reading the knowledge in the book, John tried to use the goblin method to cast.
"Mobilize elements and inject them into props to build a natural magic circuit."
John put on the magic crystal, stretched out his hands and pointed them in front.
As his thoughts struck, a whirlwind appeared out of thin air in the closed basement.
"Wind element."
Staring at the whirlwind, John continued to hold his breath and concentrate. Under his control, the wind kept circling, approaching a spell ring on the table.
At the moment of contact, the Ring of Conjuration was triggered, and a petrifying spell wiped John's cheek.
The element of air is terminated.
"It seems a few more tests are needed."
John frowned. This "Fairy Casting Science" also involves ancient magic, which is too difficult.
Do you want to directly find a goblin to forge a sword like Gryffindor?
I just thought that since all the goblins are in Gringotts now, whether they have the manufacturing technology or not is a question.
The original Gryffindor was built by the Goblin King. This craft was definitely not something that ordinary goblins could possess.
Thinking of this, John couldn't help but sigh and said tiredly: "You still have to rely on yourself."
I called up the panel and took a look. There were two remaining random points that were not used. A new skill also appeared in the skill bar.
"Proficient in ancient magic?"
The newly appeared skills are only at level 1, and it is not possible to continue upgrading them.
That skill is gray, which means John needs to accumulate enough knowledge.
"If you want to upgrade again, you need more accumulation of ancient magic."
John stared at this skill, which touched upon his blind spot of knowledge.
After all, he didn't even know what ancient magic was, so it was really difficult for him to learn it.
Putting this matter aside for the time being, John finished reading "The Science of Fairy Forging" in its entirety.
Now this book is not too difficult for him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an expert in alchemy and runes.
"Although this book records some knowledge about fairy casting, it is not comprehensive enough."
Closing the book, John rubbed his eyebrows.
It seems that I have to change direction again.
I hope there are books in the restricted book section that can help me.
In terms of ancient magic, you can go to the secret rooms of the two giants.
They are the oldest characters John knows. If there is no such thing, it can only be traced back to the time of the three Deathly Hallows brothers.
John spent the next few days in the basement.
He gradually mastered the other three elemental magics including wind magic, namely fog magic, water magic, and fire magic.
Wind can enhance perception, fog can shield the body, water can summon water flow, and fire can summon flames.
The application of the four magics can be used without a wand, which is a good gain for John.
