This was a very heavy blow to Harry's self-esteem.

Harry hadn't had time to be sad when he heard Eric say again: "Accurately speaking, you're not the only victim, Harry."

"Huh?" Harry was puzzled and had a hint of surprise. Could it be that other than him, someone else fainted in front of the dementor?

That would be great, at least it would make him less conspicuous.

"Who is it?" Harry asked eagerly.

"Uh...Harry, don't be too sad." Ron stepped forward and patted his left shoulder.

Hermione followed suit and patted his right shoulder.

Harry wondered, what do you mean?

Eric took out a package from behind, handed it to Harry, and said, "Your broom didn't abandon you."

Harry took the package, opened it with trembling hands, and found that it was the broomstick that had accompanied him for three years, the Nimbus 2000.

Now it has become Chuanwu Chelun 2000.

All in all, the broken ones are relatively neat, at least the parts are complete.

The kind that can't be fixed no matter what.

Eric explained with apologetic expression: "After you fell from the sky, your broom stopped in place. I was so busy saving you that I didn't notice your broom..."

Harry had already guessed what happened next.

Eric's magic directly wiped out his broom along with the dementors indiscriminately.

After all, the entire stand was gone, and it was lucky that there were still some parts left from Harry's Nimbus 2000.

The broomstick has quite complicated craftsmanship and magic attached to it, and it cannot be repaired with repair spells or transfiguration.

Simply put, after the overall structure is destroyed, the broomstick is completely useless.

Harry's face was ashen, he pulled himself together and asked, "Then, what about the match? Will they let us replay it another day?"

Ron and Hermione's faces froze, and Eric was a good man, and continued: "Just now Fred and George came and said that Wood is still standing on the court in the rain. Look at him like that, is it true?" Wanted to drown myself in the rain. Cedric caught the Snitch after you, so Hufflepuff won, but don't worry, no one will blame your Harry."

Harry burst into tears, and it hurt, it hurt so much.

What is loss maximization?

This is called loss maximization.

The broom is gone, the face is lost, and the game is lost in the end.

Harry really wanted to open a window and jump off the side of the tower right now.

Eric also stepped forward and patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "I destroyed your broom, Harry, so I have to give you some compensation."

Harry quickly waved his hand: "No, no, Eric, I can use the public broom in the castle to practice. You are here to fend off dementors. I won't blame you."

"Listen to what I plan to give you before refusing." Eric smiled, took out an envelope from his pocket, and handed it to Harry, "Look at this."

With patience and curiosity, Harry slowly unfolded the letter.

I saw that it said: [Dear Mr. Harry James Potter——]

【Thank you for your trust and support. The Firebolt you ordered will be delivered to you soon. 】

【We are sure this is one of the wisest decisions you have ever made. 】

【Hope you can feel the purest joy on this latest model broomstick. 】

[—Ellerby and Badmore Broom Company. 】

"What?!" Harry exclaimed, "You're sending me a Firebolt?"

Eric glanced in Ron's direction and said with a smile, "Of course it's me. It can't be Sirius Black who sent it."

Mouse Banban, who had been hiding in Ron's shirt pocket, trembled in fear when he heard this.

Chapter 86 Gregory The Flatterer

Seeing Harry's reaction, Hermione and Ron were also surprised, "Firebolt?!"

Everyone knows what a Firebolt is.

Including Hermione who doesn't play at all.

The Firebolt is an epoch-making broom launched this year. It is unparalleled in terms of speed and handling.

Other brooms, including the Nimbus series that Harry had previously used, were nothing compared to the Firebolt.

In disbelief, Ron snatched the letter from Harry's hand and looked at it, double-checking every word.

Hermione turned to Eric and asked in surprise, "Where did you get so much money?"

Eric's face was as usual: "To tell you the truth, I actually have a very rich relative. He is a scout for Puddlemere United. He happened to watch Harry play, so..."

Ron suddenly realized: "This is early signing! Some teams will establish contact with their favorite players in this way in advance, and now they have their eyes on Harry!"

After finishing speaking, Ron patted Harry on the shoulder with a big hand, and said excitedly, "Amazing, Harry, you can attract the attention of professional teams."

Harry was in pain from Ron's beating, but he also looked excited.

Hermione was dubious: "I remember Eric, you said that your parents were Muggles? Where did you get rich relatives?"

Eric corrected: "I'm an orphan. I just grew up in Muggle society. I don't know if my parents are wizards or not."

"There are a lot of people who are popular. Now that I have been published in the Daily Prophet one after another, relatives who I don't know have come to my door and asked me to help."

Hermione still couldn't believe it.

Eric smiled and said, "Don't worry about Hermione, I didn't pay for it."

Of course he didn't pay the money, who else could have this big injustice besides Sirius.

When Harry was playing, he also secretly turned into a dog, sneaked out and ran to the stadium to watch the game.

The euphemistic name is to meet my godson.

Of course, I also witnessed the scene where the dementor was smashed together with Harry's broom.

He nearly had a heart attack seeing Harry fall straight out of the air.

Thanks to Eric being there and saving Harry, he could barely calm down.

Afterwards, in order to help Harry go further in Quidditch, he immediately decided to give Harry a Firebolt.

In the words of Sirius, Harry looked like his father when he was flying in the sky.

This small amount of money is really a sprinkle of water for the Black family.

Sirius' character is like this, in front of the people he valued, what money is, money is a bastard.

He would do anything for Harry.

The excitement on Harry's face was beyond words, he had never received such an expensive gift before, but he still refused: "Thank you, Eric, I know I'm not that good, it's all because of you, but I can't accept this Take the Firebolt, it's too expensive."

Ron retorted: "Nonsense, you fly the best."

Harry said dejectedly: "If I fly really well, it will be us Gryffindor who win this game."

Eric said calmly, "You are affected by the dementors. I have already explained this to you. Harry, you can't escape the objective reality. The only thing you can do is to take the initiative to meet it." Go up and solve it. Now, the objective reality you need to face is this Firebolt, if you don’t want it, my relative will give the Firebolt to Malfoy.”

"what why?!"

Ron and Harry said angrily at the same time.

Eric laughed: "Because the Malfoy family will bring more sponsorship to Puddlemere United."

Harry patted his chest, and said righteously: "It's impolite to refuse a friend's gift, I will make good use of this Firebolt, thank you, Eric."

Ron nodded firmly, agreeing with Harry's statement very much.

Hermione held her forehead speechlessly beside her.

Eric took Ron and Harry away with a slight change of subject.

You two really don't even know when they were sold out.

Hermione said helplessly, "Don't be so happy, Harry, you still have a problem to solve."

"What is it?"

Hermione pointed to Eric and said, "Learn the Patronus Charm from Eric."

The expression on Harry's face froze instantly.

"What's the matter?" Hermione put her hips on her hips. "We've talked to Eric about it, and Eric is willing to teach you. If anyone here needs to learn the Patronus Charm the most, it's you, Harry."

"You don't think it's embarrassing to ask Eric for advice, do you? I say bluntly, he is better than many senior students."

Harry said awkwardly, "No, that's not what I mean, I'm just worried about whether I can learn it."

Eric laughed suddenly: "Harry, if you worry about your talent before you start practicing, you'll never learn any new magic, Ron, give me Scabbers."

Not knowing why, Ron took out the mouse Scabbers from his pocket, handed it to Eric, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Eric took Banban and said with a smile: "To release the Patronus Charm, there is a prerequisite, that is, you must have an object you want to protect. This object can be a person or a certain object. Even pets."

"Let's use Scabbers as an example, Ron, you like Scabbers, don't you?"

Ron nodded: "Of course, it is the only pet that grew up with me."

"You want to learn the Patronus Charm. It's best to practice it with Banban...but it doesn't look very spiritual?" Eric held Banban, observed carefully, and at the same time opened up the spiritual position.

All the details about Banban's body are displayed in front of Eric at this moment, allowing him to read.

Height, weight, even the length of body hair, and the palm missing a finger, are all firmly remembered by Eric.

It wasn't until Eric was convinced that he could transfigure an identical Scabber that he turned off his mental stance.

Ron replied angrily, "It's all Hermione's fault. She bought a cat named Crookshanks, and she spends all her time trying to catch Scabbers!"

Hermione was expressionless and did not speak. They had quarreled on this topic many times, but there was no result.

She didn't see any point in such a quarrel.

Eric took out a small ceramic medicine bottle from his pocket and asked, "I just have some tonics for pets left over here. Do you want to give Banban a try? Let me state in advance that it might not work."

Ron spread his hands and said, "It's good to try, it's better than being listless."
