"I'm offering a paltry offer," Ivan said, shaking his head rather than taking credit.
He knew very well that George and Fred would have come up with these things in the future even without him, but he had pushed it forward.
"Come on, we all know how good you are!" Fred said with a grin, thinking Ivan was being modest.
"I told you before that it would be the right thing to do to invite Hals to be our special advisor." George picked up a well-made Bonfire and offered it to Ivan, indicating that he would give it a try.
"So? Wanna experience our handiwork?"
Yvonne took it from him. It looked like a Muggle world firework on the outside, but it was made of rough red leather and hadn't had an icon printed on it yet.
In his previous life, Ivan had been very interested in these interesting magical tools, and now that he had the opportunity, he wanted to experiment with them himself.
After fiddling with it for a while, Ivan figured out how to activate it. He injected a little magic into it, and the tip of the tube in his hand emitted a dazzling spark.
Red fireworks then followed, trailing scarlet sparks in the air…
However, this was only the beginning. Multicolored sparks poured out of the tube and flew all over the place. When they hit an obstacle, they would explode…
From time to time, dozens of fireworks would crash into the walls or go off in a shower of sparks, throwing the small storage room into chaos…
Several of them even flew towards the trio standing in the middle. Ivan activated his protective ring to block them, and blue and purple sparks exploded in front of him.
George and Fred, on the other hand, were a little embarrassed by the fireworks, but they didn't seem to mind. They were covered in dirt and laughing, which was, after all, the effect they had hoped for.
"It's not over yet. If anyone tries to stop them with a Vanishing Charm, or any other spell, they'll be in for it!"
George introduced them to each other with a sinister smile as he used the Stunning Spell on a stray Blammer.
There was a flash of light from a charm, and the fireball that had been hit suddenly expanded and burst…
Crackling sounds could be heard, and a huge flame appeared in mid-air, looking like a dragon's head. Blue and purple sparks flew in all directions, spreading several meters away, looking extremely gorgeous!
The corner of Ivan's mouth twitched. He felt that if this power were any stronger, he could sell it as a weapon.
Yvonne recalled the Weasleys' inventions of magical objects in her previous life. They were supposed to be funny magical toys, but many of them were actually dangerous illegal objects.
For example, this Weasley Sou Sou Sou — Boom Fireworks, a love potion called "Magical Witch", and another magical prop that can turn an entire corridor into a swamp!
Ivan remembered that it was called a portable swamp, and when released, it could turn the entire corridor into a swampy landscape. If used well, it was a completely strategic weapon!
It has to be said that using these things for practical jokes is such a waste…
"By the way, George, how do you make these interesting things?" Ivan asked, curious about the source of their knowledge.
Even with his Level 4 Alchemy knowledge, he could not create a portable swamp, but George and Fred did.
"Fred and I accidentally found a lot of old books in Dad's study before we went to school, and we learned how to make these props from them," George said.
A legacy from a pure-blood family?
Yvonne thought of the flying Muggle car she had seen at the beginning of the school year, which seemed to have been personally modified by Arthur Weasley, George and Fred's father.
With this in mind, Ivan became more interested in the Magickery that the pair had founded.
"By the way, Ivan, what do you think of that bang-bang?" Fred asked hopefully.
"It's nice. I think there'll be lots of naughty young wizards who'll love it," Yvonne said, recovering quickly.
These were all good for creating explosions and chaos. Improving them to make them more powerful would do the trick…
"That's what we thought too!" George nodded, and then happily chatted with Ivan about their sales plan, as well as the subsequent improvements and research on magical props.
Ivan, combining his knowledge of sales in his previous life with his Muggle world, gave them advice, some of which were even more advanced than those currently used in the Muggle world.
Even though it was all theory and Ivan had no practical experience, it did not stop George and Fred from understanding it.
At first, they were able to participate in the discussion, but soon it became Ivan speaking alone…
George and Fred were stunned. When Ivan's mouth went dry, George asked with a strange expression.
"I just wanted to ask, is there anything you don't know?"
"Don't say that, I just read a lot! I read about it in some Muggle books, and Muggles are much better at making money than we are," Ivan said hesitantly, shrugging.
"If there's one thing I don't know, of course there is."
George and Fred were curious.
Ivan waved his wand, and the magical points of light formed a strange symbol in the air, one of the many symbols the system had given him.
"Have you ever seen anything like it?" Ivan asked.
"No, it looks like some sort of character. Is it a new kind of magic?" George shook his head, indicating that he had not seen it either.
"Maybe we should try to etch it into a magical material and see what happens," Fred suggested.
Ivan nodded and quickly experimented with it, rearranging a few of the characters in his head and trying to infuse them with magic. Nothing happened.
"Well… that might not be the way to use it…" Fred said sheepishly, stroking his hair.
If these characters were really a type of magical text, even if they were arranged in the wrong way, there would be some reaction, such as a direct explosion.
Ivan rubbed his smooth chin. As the one who put in the magic, he could sense more than George and Fred.
These characters actually have some magical effects, but they are extremely weak…
