Curious, Hermione also asked, "Lan Luo, how do you make these animals talk? They seem quite intelligent. And is the ravenclaw's diadem what I think it is?" She always asked whatever she didn't understand, especially in front of Lan Luo. Although she had tried very hard, she still couldn't imagine how powerful Lan Luo truly was.
She couldn't be blamed for this; when had the Wizarding World ever seen magical creatures that could talk? And it was rumored that The Dark Lord was only so powerful because he had supposedly acquired the ravenclaw's diadem.
"This is an application of magic. It is indeed the ravenclaw's diadem you're thinking of. After wearing it, your neural reflexes will become faster, which will geometrically increase your learning speed and comprehension," Lan Luo explained the function of the ravenclaw's diadem.
The three little ones became excited upon hearing Lan Luo's explanation of the ravenclaw's diadem's effects. Harry also spoke up, "After we have the ravenclaw's diadem, can we quickly surpass The Dark Lord?"
"No, Harry. Those are just aids for our learning, but learning still depends on ourselves," Lan Luo explained.
Ron heard this and said, "That's still pretty cool! Can I try it?"
Lan Luo simply took out three ravenclaw's diadems from his ring and floated them into the hands of the three little ones. "These three ravenclaw's diadems are for you, as your back-to-school gifts."
Hermione was astonished to see Lan Luo use magic so skillfully.
"You're truly insane. This Levitation Charm, wandless and non-verbal, yet with such effortless control," Hermione's mindset was a bit shattered now, after seeing Lan Luo cast spells as easily as drinking water.
Harry and Ron, however, seemed to ignore Hermione's words and put on the ravenclaw's diadems by themselves. They instantly felt as if they could now use some of the magic they had learned in the past, and many previously incomprehensible pieces of knowledge now all made sense, their minds becoming perfectly clear.
"I don't have to worry about Snape's Make things difficult anymore," Harry said, putting on the diadem. Although he felt a little guilty, he truly needed this ravenclaw's diadem right now.
Ron also said after putting it on, "I think we can also learn like Lan Luo." Although he didn't usually say it, Lan Luo was a prodigy in his heart. Not only was he good at studying, but he also had a large number of fangirls, which was also true. Although they were young, it didn't stop them from having some competitive spirit.
Hermione pouted and said with disdain, "I think you're too optimistic. Lan Luo also said we have to learn by ourselves. Do you two often go to the library?"
Ron and Harry blushed upon hearing this; they indeed rarely went to the library.
Seeing their embarrassment, Lan Luo said, "Aren't we going to Flourish and Blotts? Do we still want to go?"
"Of course we do! Gilderoy Lockhart has a book signing today, so let's go now," Hermione said excitedly, remembering Lockhart's signing event.
"Our family is also going to Diagon Alley today. They said we should meet up in Diagon Alley," Ron added sheepishly, scratching his head.
Harry saw his friends were all going to Diagon Alley to buy essential back-to-school items and continued, "Then let's go together."
Lan Luo said to everyone, "Come closer to me." After speaking, Lan Luo opened a runic wormhole to Diagon Alley in front of them.
...
When the four of them arrived at the entrance of Flourish and Blotts, they saw a long queue in front of the bookstore. Ron and Harry walked ahead, and Molly Weasley, Ron's Mama, who was queuing at the front, called out Harry's name when she saw them.
Everyone in the queue turned to look at the small wizard upon hearing Harry's name. Molly Weasley pulled Harry over and said, "Thank goodness I can see you here."
Lan Luo saw the dust on their clothes and knew they had also arrived via Floo Powder. As Lan Luo walked in, all the dirty parts of their clothes were instantly cleaned. Just as everyone was about to exclaim in surprise, the bookstore owner loudly announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, let us welcome Mr. Gilderoy Lockhart!"
At this, everyone in the bookstore clapped in unison. Ron's Mama tidied her hair and exclaimed, "He's here!"
Ron explained from the side, "My Mama is a fan of his."
Lockhart emerged from the inner door of the bookstore and posed for the crowd, gesturing, "Excuse me, please, madam, just passing through."
At this moment, a photographer stepped forward and said to Ginny, Ron's sister, who was nearby, "Thank you, excuse me, little one. This is for The Daily Prophet."
Lockhart maintained his charming smile, constantly turning to get the perfect angle for the photos. When he saw Harry in the crowd, his smile slowly faded, and he exclaimed in surprise, "This couldn't be Harry Potter, could it?"
The photographer, without regard for Harry's willingness, directly stepped forward, grabbed him from the crowd, and said, "Excuse me."
Lockhart forcefully pulled Harry onto his shoulder and said, "A bigger smile, Harry! Our photo will be on the front page." Harry was utterly bewildered at this moment, thinking, Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
After taking a photo, Lockhart addressed the crowd again, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is truly an extraordinary moment. Harry Potter, this morning, specifically stepped into Flourish and Blotts to purchase my autobiography, 'Magical Me.'"
Upon hearing Lockhart's words, a round of applause erupted from the crowd, leaving Ron bewildered. Lan Luo found it somewhat amusing; if he hadn't used a Disillusionment Charm just now, he might have been pulled over too, after all, he and Harry were like twin stars.
"This book has just topped The Daily Prophet's bestseller list for the 27th consecutive week. Harry would never have imagined, nor would he believe, that he will receive my complete works, absolutely free." He then maintained a smiling pose. After the photographer finished, applause once again erupted from the crowd.
"Let the signing begin," Lockhart said, sitting down to prepare for the day's signing.
When Harry returned to the crowd, Ron's Mama, Molly Weasley, excitedly took Lockhart's book and said with a smile, "Harry, I'll hold it for you. I need to get his autograph. You all wait for me outside, quickly!"
When Harry and the others squeezed out, they looked around but couldn't find Lan Luo. Just as they were about to continue searching, urgent footsteps came from the stairs.
Malfoy immediately stepped forward, impatiently, and said in a questioning tone, "I suppose you must be having a grand time, famous Harry Potter, even the bookstore will be on the front page of the newspaper."
