Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 46 Somewhat Famous

Flying over Queens on a broomstick, Jerry touched the two hundred dollars in his pocket and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Earning red stars while also making some US dollars—what a delightful thing!

Although he wouldn't use magic to steal or force, he felt that an equivalent exchange and receiving payment were acceptable.

Moreover, he doesn't take much each time; sometimes it might be just a few dollars. If the person he saves is very poor, he will take money directly from the criminals.

In this society, money isn't everything, but you can't do anything without it.

In his past life, when he watched Maguire's Spider-Man, he always felt that it was unbelievable that Spider-Man, who was so powerful, was so poor.

Moreover, the part-time job he did involved delivering food while swinging on spider webs every day.

With your strength, fighting in underground boxing rings is against your principles, but you should be able to work as a construction worker, right? You can earn more money as a construction worker than delivering food!

To be honest, he still admires people like Spider-Man because they truly do good deeds without expecting anything in return, and they genuinely help and protect others from the bottom of their hearts, even at the cost of their own time, love, life, and life itself.

Jerry admitted that he couldn't do that.

Although he does good deeds every day, in the end, it's just to make himself stronger and then protect himself and the family he cares about.

"Ah, help!"

Hearing a cry for help coming from the alley below, Jerry put away his dollar, turned his flying broom around, and flew towards the direction from which the cry came.

"They'll all be petrified!"

"A dollar is flying in!"

In less than a minute, Jerry took to the air again.

Having mastered the full-body binding spell, ordinary robbers appeared as fragile as infants to him, greatly increasing his efficiency in solving problems.

And there will never again be the embarrassing situation of being chased around by patrolling police officers afterward.

Three o'clock in the morning.

Jerry returned to the warehouse, changed out of his wizard robes, and took his flying broom and other belongings back to his residential area.

In fact, with his flying broom, he could have easily left through his room window and then returned home through the same window.

However, doing so is not a safe bet.

Because if someone can access satellite surveillance and thoroughly search the neighborhoods around him, it would be easy for their identity to be exposed.

Taking off and landing from abandoned factories each time, while not entirely guaranteed, at least adds another layer of insurance.

The only problem is that it's a bit inconvenient to enter and exit the community with clothes on when carrying a flying broom.

Once he learns any one of the spells—Disappearance Charm, Apparition Charm, or Growth Charm—this problem will be easily solved.

Meanwhile, the Queens Police Department,

In the sheriff's office, Haas looked at the several statements in his hand, then gave his officers a strange look:

"Are you sure you're not joking?"

The officer shrugged helplessly.

"I also thought they were joking with me, but the testimonies of the three victims and the two robbers matched perfectly. They all said that a little wizard riding a broomstick saved them with magic!"

"Wizard? Magic? How old are you to still believe in that stuff? I thought only my daughter would do that!"

Haas shook his head and threw the statement on the table.

He suspected that there was some unspeakable secret between the family of three and the two robbers, which was why they were trying to fool him with such a ridiculous excuse.

The officer seemed to suddenly remember something and then reminded Haas:

"Captain, do you think it could be related to that kid who liked to wear wizard robes and do good deeds a while ago?"

"Him? Now that you mention it, it really does seem like him. They're both kids, both like to dress up as wizards, and both like to be out at night. But I've never heard of him having a flying broom before!"

At this moment, Hass suddenly realized that for the past month, there seemed to be a child who liked to wear wizard robes and come out at night to subdue bad guys.

Moreover, he was quite skilled; once, he encountered someone he chased for a long time but couldn't catch.

"Maybe that broom is a flying machine that looks like a broom, and that magic is some kind of high-tech weapon, like Iron Man's!"

The officer stroked his chin, with an expression that said, "This is probably the truth."

Haas nodded in agreement:

"Don't worry about him. He's just trying to relieve our stress, so there's nothing wrong with it. But are kids these days really this capable?"

In the end, he thought of his son Jerry, who was also an extraordinary child. His academic performance and housework skills made him, as a father, feel ashamed.

"But Captain, Chief George previously ordered us to do everything in our power to capture this kid called 'The Wizard.' His actions, while commendable, are still illegal!"

The officer reminded him again.

"I think these leaders are probably afraid that if things continue like this, it will make our police station look incompetent."

However, it is indeed quite dangerous for a child to do this every night. Go check the security footage and see if you can find out where the child lives. We'll visit them then!

"Yes, Captain!"

Time flies, and a week has passed in no time.

Every night this week, Jerry would ride his broomstick around Queens, and if he spotted a crime, he would be the first to appear, wielding his wand and hurling spells at the culprit.

It is precisely because of this that the growth rate of his Little Red Star has increased several times compared to before.

Moreover, his reputation as a "wizard" was no longer confined to the neighborhood, but gradually spread throughout Queens.

So it wasn't just the police looking for him; some media professionals, racking their brains to boost their news coverage, also started using various methods to find clues about him after hearing the news.

However, Jerry always acts very quickly, and after finishing his business, he never lingers, flying away on his broomstick.

Even the most resourceful media reporters and patrolling police officers could only learn what happened from the victims and robbers.

For the residents of Queens, all they hear now is a rumor that a child who likes to wear wizard robes will appear riding a broom after midnight.

They didn't know the specifics, and apart from what they had seen with their own eyes, many citizens still didn't quite believe it.

That noon, while his sister Elsa was taking a nap in her room, Jerry quietly practiced the Divine Sword Shadowless Spell alone in the living room.

In the week since his return, Little Red Star has been making a considerable income, so he has been spending his "Little Red Stars" every day to learn and comprehend the high-difficulty spells he obtained from the Half-Blood Prince's Notes.

Hard work pays off, and now he's managed to release those spells correctly, albeit with some difficulty.

What he needs to do next is to practice more and increase his proficiency with these spells so that he can more effectively exert their power and function.
