Hogwarts: This holy light is righteously evil

"You're a swindler! A complete swindler! You even cheated your own friends, that's too much!" George clutched his chest, wailing with a "grief" on his face.

Fred chimed in, frowning and feigning a pitiful look. The two of them took turns crying and wailing, their faces full of accusation, but not a single tear came out. It was all bark and no bite; their pitiful act was completely faked.

Puni leaned against the pile of wooden crates, arms crossed, looking at them calmly, not believing a word of their story.

He knew the Weasley twins too well; their greatest strengths were feigning helplessness and acting like scoundrels. There was no way he could get them to give in with that act.

After a brief standoff, seeing that Puni remained unmoved, the twins had no choice but to abandon their pitiful appearance, slump their shoulders, and reluctantly give in.

They have a Galleon now!

However, Puni eventually relented and sold them the bag, which had been enchanted with a seamless stretching spell, on credit.

He did this not because he really wanted to earn the twins' Galleons, but mainly to give them a sense of crisis and urge them to quickly produce the joke toys they had conceived.

These items are all likely to sell very well.

"Oh, right, Puni." George, who had just accepted the fact that he'd been ripped off for a galleon, suddenly remembered something, slapped his forehead, and said, "What about the cloak you promised us? You mean the kind that can hide our tracks and prevent Filch and the professor from finding us? Why didn't you mention it?"

Fred immediately chimed in, stepping forward, hands on his hips, striking a defiant pose: "Exactly! We want it now! You can't go back on your word!"

"That's right, give it to us now, or we'll fine you to offset that Galleon debt!" George added, the helplessness on their faces long gone, replaced by grinning faces.

The two surrounded Puni, urging him on with their own words.

They had been eyeing this cloak that could conceal their presence for a long time.

They've been searching for the Requirement Room for several days now, but Puni hasn't mentioned it yet; they've been itching to get their hands on it for ages.

Upon hearing this, Puni paused for a moment, then slapped his forehead, looking as if he had just realized something: "Oh right, I almost forgot about that! I was so busy looking for things that I completely forgot about what I promised you."

He dropped his composure, clapped his hands with a smile, and called out to the twins, "Since you're in such a hurry, let's start making it now! Right here, I'll give it to you as soon as it's done, so I don't have to deliver it to you later."

"Make it here?" George and Fred were both stunned, their faces full of doubt. George frowned and asked, "But there are no materials here at all—no cloth, no thread, no magic potions. How are we going to make a cloak?"

Fred nodded in agreement: "That's right, making a magic cloak requires special materials; you can't just conjure them out of thin air, can you?"

Puni smiled and shook his head, patiently explaining, "I've discovered a new way to make this cloak; just wait and see."

At this point, he changed the subject: "However, before we begin production, you will need to hold a ceremony with me."

"This ritual is used to bind both parties, mainly to ensure that you will not reveal the method of making the cloak, or what we are doing here, to anyone, including your family and other classmates. Once it is revealed, the ritual will automatically trigger a backlash."

As Puni spoke patiently and persuasively, he slowly raised his foot and gently stomped it. Suddenly, a faint golden light emanated from the ground beneath his feet, and a huge magic circle instantly unfolded in front of the three of them. The magic circle was engraved with complex and mysterious patterns, exuding a gentle yet majestic sacred aura. Soft light flowed between the patterns, making it look both mysterious and solemn.

"Alright, the ceremony is ready. Now, who wants to go first?"

Looking at the magic circle radiating a sacred aura before them, the twins' playful expressions gradually faded, and they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. This was the first time they had ever seen such a mysterious ritual.

But they have Gryffindor blood flowing in their veins and are born with an adventurous spirit. The more mysterious something is, the more it arouses their curiosity, and they will not back down easily.

"I'll go first!" George raised his hand first, eager to try.

"No, I should go first!" Fred immediately retorted, taking a step forward defiantly. "I was the one who remembered the cloak first, so I should go first!"

The two argued back and forth, neither willing to give in. Suddenly, George adopted a tragic expression and said to Fred, "Fred, if anything happens to me during the ceremony, remember to take good care of my broom! I saved up for ages to buy it!"

Fred rolled his eyes dismissively and said, "Your broken broom almost fell apart during the last flight. It should have been thrown away a long time ago. Do you really need me to take care of it?"

Puni stood aside, watching the two argue back and forth, sometimes arguing about who should go first, and sometimes saying nonsensical things. He couldn't help but rub his forehead.

These two are such a pair of clowns; they can argue anytime, and they just keep saying useless things.

Finally, the two agreed that George would perform the ceremony first, while Fred would wait on the side.

The ritual was simple. Under Puni's guidance, George placed his hand in the center of the magic circle and recited the oath Puni had taught him. The light of the magic circle instantly intensified, and a soft ray of light rose from the magic circle and merged into George's body, thus completing the ritual.

Fred then followed the same steps and completed the ceremony.

After the ceremony, Puni raised his hand and waved his wand, chanting complex magic incantations. The golden light of the magic circle gradually faded.

Then, two velvet cloaks slowly appeared in the center of the magic circle.

This is another function of the sacred site discovered by Puni.

It can not only create nine sacred artifacts, but it can also help create and replicate items that have already been created.

So the original plan was to buy two cloaks as gifts for the twins, but now not only do I not need to give them away, I can even turn the twins into my own people.

Kill two birds with one stone.

"I'm speechless. I haven't even used this ability of the Pureblood Progenitor to control or enslave any dragons or phoenixes yet, and it's already being used on a bunch of people."

He also gained two pure-blooded maids for free.

However, Puni also discovered that this pure-blood progenitor would not impose any restrictions on those who were bound, as long as he had no such intentions.

So he couldn't be bothered to care anymore.

"Wow! That's it?"
