•The figure in the ice

Extimum's gaze was not fixed on any cage, but on a figure enclosed in a block of ice, it was not very large, its approximate dimensions were about 15 cm high and 10 cm wide.

The block of ice emanated a constant stream of cold air as it approached and greatly blurred the frozen figure within, however, it could still be seen what kind of creature was in the ice, it was a fairy, about 8cm tall, only her figure could be seen in a defensive pose with her hands covering her face and her iridescent colored wings.

Li Xie: "Oh, I see that this relic has caught your interest, it is mainly an ornament, my clients find it interesting, it is an ancient fairy found in some ruins, it must have been enchanted by a powerful magician of the time, the ice emits cold even to this day ".

Extimum was sure, his premonition came from the figure in the ice, however, according to Li Xie's words she had been frozen for a long time so it was difficult to know if she was alive, Extimum could not feel any breath or signal from inside her.

Li Xie: "If you are interested in fairies ... I have some similar ones on display or if you are looking for something similar I also have cornwall pixie".

Extimum only kept his gaze fixed on the figure frozen in ice.

Extimum: "Tell me, would you be willing to sell it to me?"

Li Xie: "if it is what you want ... it is only an ornament for my store, since it is a new client, I will leave it to him at a good price, only 10 galleons".

Hearing the exaggerated price, Extimum gave Li Xie a sharp look.

Extimum: "Didn't you say it was just a decoration?"

Li Xie: "Do not be angry my lord, although it is a decoration, it is after all, a specimen of an ancient creature, not many have the opportunity to see them." Li Xie became a bit nervous from the natural pressure exerted by Extimum, although he was dealing with difficult clients, Extimum gave him a more primitive feeling of danger in him, furthermore, he did not want to lose a client.

Extimum: "I'll only give you 8 galleons, do you sell it?"

Li Xie: "ah a tough negotiator, well, I will sell it to you, do you want to look at something else?"

Extimum: "yes ... do you have binding magical contracts?"

Li Xie: "Of course, they are indispensable for this business, but my lord must know that they are very rare, so the price ...".

Extimum: "just say it."

Li Xie: "hehehe, it is good to deal with direct clients, it will be 5 galleons."

Extimum: "I'll pay you 3 and it's a deal." Extimum would not be easily scammed by the merchant, although they were rare, but they did not cost that much because not many would dare to buy them, if they found one in your hands you would be given a direct death sentence.

Li Xie: "excellent, it will be a total of 11 galleons."

Extimum paid and then waved his wand throwing a 'reducio' on the ice block shrinking it and then put it in his bag.

Li Xie then took out a scroll from his pocket and handed it to Extimum, it seemed his pocket was also enchanted similar to Extimum's expandable bag.

Extimum paid for the 11 galleons and left the store, Harry had been waiting outside the store with many thoughts about what he saw inside.

Extimum: "let's go."

Having finished everything that stopped them in such a place, Extimum and Harry walked in the direction of the main street.

Harry: "Did you get what you were looking for?"

Extimum: "Yes, but I still have to see what I can do with it, I'll explain later, changing the subject, Harry, what you saw in there ... it's just another side of the magical world, not everything is fantastic landscapes, I think you should already know it ".

Harry: "I know… it's just that I can't understand how they can allow a place like that to exist here".

Extimum: "think of it this way, although light judges darkness, it cannot deny that one lives off the other."

Harry seemed to reflect on his words, due to his childhood he knew that not everything was light and rainbow, but he did not think that there would be slavery in the magical world, seeing them in that state locked up and in chains left a bad taste in his mouth.

In no time they returned to the main streets, while walking through the place, Extimum saw a sign that gave him an idea.

Extimum: "Come, I have an idea that could change your mood."

Extimum pulled Harry towards a building with a sign that had a picture of glasses.

"Magi-oculist" (Chinese).

Magic has existed since the beginning of time, so it is normal that many problems or difficulties of magicians have already been investigated previously, a rare and scarce profession, is that of a magi-oculist, they specialize in treating eye problems, from making glasses to the eye itself, that being said, not everyone is willing to let any magician touch their eyes, which is why glasses for poor eyesight are still sold, others prefer them for a certain fashion. Magi-oculists make all kinds of glasses with varied effects such as: microscopic glasses, glasses to observe magic, glasses to see invisible creatures, slow perception glasses, glasses to see behind walls, there are all kinds of glasses you can imagine ; many of them are used for specific professions where they are very useful and others are just interesting gadgets. Magi-oculists are also capable of replacing a damaged eye and, although healing magic can work miracles, but cannot recover some damage done with overly powerful or malicious spells, many magical creatures leave incurable or difficult to treat wounds, due to In such cases, the profession still persists, although many distrust it.

** ding ding **

A bell rang when entering the place, it was a small store, with only a space for customers and a large counter full of all kinds of glasses, behind the counter there were two other closed rooms, a young Asian woman was at the counter, she had He had long straight black hair, he had a pretty face and fair skin, his eyes were white, he wore a white coat similar to what you would see in Muggle doctors and large glasses on his head with different colored lenses.

??? (Chinese): "welcome to my store. oh, but what do we have here, those are glasses… Muggles ". The woman saluted and then immediately turned her attention to Harry due to the fact that he had glasses, however, noticing that they were only Muggle glasses, he seemed to feel a great disgust.

Harry couldn't understand what he was saying, but he could see the disgust on his face.

Extimum (Chinese): "good afternoon, my friend here wants to solve his problem with his glasses".

??? (Chinese): "I see, do you want to get some new glasses or fix his vision problem?"

Extimum (Chinese): "his vision problem".

??? (Chinese): "boy, come here".

Extimum: "go in front of her." Extimum indicated to Harry that he did not understand what the woman wanted to say to him.

Harry went to the woman, who when seeing him approach, lowered her big glasses from her head and put them on correctly, then she began to move some of the multiple lenses that her glasses had, calculating according to certain information the problem visual of Harry.

Harry just gave him a curious look, seeing how the woman moved colored glasses from one side to another while she looked at him as if detailing a hieroglyph.

??? (Chinese): "well, I have already seen your problem".

??? (Chinese): "Perfectom jingse!". The woman took out her wand and pointed it at Harry's eyes and then cast her spell, it must have been a spell of her own invention due to the combination of Latin and Chinese.

The languages ​​with which spells are usually cast are mainly ancient languages, the older they seem to be more effective, likewise, some languages ​​have certain magical inclinations, an example of this is parsel which is particularly good at casting dark spells, however , it is mainly to the taste of the magician and the teachings in their training on what language they use to cast their spells.

After the spell was cast, Harry blinked several times and then removed his glasses to look around.

Harry: "I can see ... perfectly." Harry exclaimed excitedly, although he was not so bothered by glasses since he had worn them most of his life, but everyone who uses glasses would prefer not to wear them if possible.

??? (Chinese): "it will be 20 Sickles". The woman smiled and told Extimum the price, now noticing that Harry didn't understand her.

Harry: "Ah, I'll pay." Although Harry couldn't understand much, but he could understand when the woman named the money, so he offered to pay, after all this was for himself and Extimum had already paid some other things for him.

Harry didn't even know it was possible to cure his bad eyesight with magic, it was strange that no one had mentioned it to him before.

Harry then took two galleons out of his pocket and paid, after which he put his glasses in another pocket as a souvenir.

Extimum knew that although magi-oculists were a bit rejected in the community, there were really few reported cases in which someone suffered damage to their eyes from being treated by them, in addition, the fact that this business could remain in the main streets of the city it indicated that it had a good reputation, otherwise, with the high prejudice of the magicians for the profession, they would have been removed from the city.

After paying the magi-oculist, they left the store and headed to find a restaurant for lunch, neither of them needed or wanted to buy any of those glasses, Extimum especially could see many things with his eyes without needing those glasses .

Shortly after searching, they found a restaurant, it was a wooden building with 2 floors, with a heavy ceramic roof and an upward slant; some lanterns decorated under the eaves of the roof.

They sat on the second floor at a table with an outside view.

Extimum: "Oh, I just remembered something, when the waiter comes back just point him to this and the one you chose, I'll be back". Extimum pointed out to Harry the name of the food he wanted. The food had their description in English on the menu, although curiously their name was still in Chinese.

After saying his words, Extimum left the restaurant and went to a nearby store that he saw on the way, it was a potions shop, he did not linger long at the place, he only needed to buy a few potions, two of which were for Harry.

Extimum: 'it will be interesting to see everyone's expression when they meet the new Harry.'

The potions that Extimum bought for Harry were: a body readjustment potion and a strengthening potion, with the first, Harry's body could recover from his abuse and readjust any part of the body that has been malformed by starvation or physical abuse, the second potion, it would strengthen the body and enhance the effect of the first potion by providing energy so that the process would be easier and could readjust Harry's constitution more effectively, after all, a stronger Harry equals more peace for Extimum.

Extimum returned to the restaurant shortly after, the dishes they ordered had already been served on the table, Harry was even already eating a plate of noodles, Extimum's plate, on the other hand, seemed more… interesting.

Extimum sat at the table and looked at his plate, he had ordered a "dragon roar 'hotpot'", however the way they did it here was funny, from one of the food dishes, an occasional dragon made of meat and soup would come out roaring or devouring other pieces of meat, naturally he didn't really eat them and they were more like fusing with the dragon.

Harry: "How can you eat that? I burned my tongue last time, I think not many of the locals even ask for that hotpot you asked for." In fact, Harry was the one who discovered the dish, he had ordered it yesterday at the hotel without knowing what it was, after eating it he literally spat fire from his mouth, the locals even made fun of him, it seemed that it was a trap dish for tourists.

Extimum on the other hand was intrigued by the food after seeing Harry spit fire and ordered one for himself, since then it has been one of his favorite dishes.

Extimum: "It is a very interesting sensation when you eat the dragon, in addition, when you breathe fire you vent all the itch and you can eat more". As the dragon ate other foods on the plate, it acquired a more compressed and diverse flavor when tasted.

Extimum: "well, here you go, first take the blue bottle and then the white one, oh, but before taking the white one, bite something".

Harry gave him a suspicious look, the last part sounded particularly sinister when Extimum said it.

Harry: "what are they for?"

Extimum: "They are for you to become a dragon and fly high in the sky, now just take them". Extimum tried to say it sarcastically but his impassive voice made Harry wonder if they would actually turn him into a dragon.

Harry had already begun to notice that Extimum took particular pleasure in the misery of others, even if it was just harmless things.

But knowing that Extimum wouldn't really harm him, he gulped down his food and drank the potions in the order said.

The first tasted strawberry, but the second tasted terrible of iron.

Extimum just watched the changes in Harry's body with a slight smile.

First his skin glowed with a blue hue, followed by his body beginning to swell and thin in succession, his hair grew longer and his body stretched, then terrible ** crack crack ** sounds began to be heard, making Harry he opened his eyes wide and when he was about to scream, he remembered Extimum's words.

He couldn't scream in the middle of a restaurant and there was nothing he could bite to muffle, he thought Extimum was only saying to joke the last part of biting something, thinking quickly and seeing Extimum's slight smile, Harry took Extimum's hand and bit her in revenge.

Extimum: "Ah, damn you, bite something, not me." Harry couldn't pierce Extimum's skin with his strength, even as he bit back in pain, but he still caught Extimum off guard by biting him.

After about 10 seconds in which some slightly shuddering sounds came from Harry's body, Harry collapsed in his seat sweating.

** pant pant **

Harry gasped several times and then spoke, ignoring the amused looks from other nearby diners.

Harry: "Damn you cheated on me, that was so painful, for a moment and I thought I would die, it felt like all my bones were moving, ugh, I don't want to remember it."

Extimum: "well, you bit me, so we are at hand I think, on the other hand, you should look in a mirror or check your body, here". Extimum handed Harry a mirror, his always reliable bag still didn't disappoint him.

Harry looked at his body and then looked at himself in the mirror.

Harry: "Is that me?" The current Harry had changed a lot, his previous lean and slightly malnourished constitution had changed to a more embattled, his body also became taller and he got some slight changes in his face that together with the fact that he no longer wore glasses gave him an aspect quite different from his previous one, although he still had his scar and someone close to him could associate them, but the change was palpable.

Extimum: "well, it has been a lot for today, let's go back to the hotel, I have to check something, later we will visit another place". Extimum got up from his seat and stretched a bit, after which he went to pay for the food and headed out with Harry to the hotel.

.-.

In a dark shop filled with cages and chained creatures, Li Xie sat on a chair in front of his shop counter.

Li Xie: "hahahaha, hehehe, now I remember ... that was Harry Potter, oh, but what great news is this, I'm sure many would be willing to pay a lot for this information." Li Xie laughed in his dark tent and spoke to himself.

Because Extimum didn't expect anyone to recognize Harry in china, they hadn't preserved the transformation in him.

.-.

Extimum had already returned to his hotel room. He sat on his bed and took the ice block out of its bag, returning it to its original size.

Extimum: 'how should I open it…'. Extimum rubbed his chin in thought.

He didn't want to end up destroying the creature/being inside, so it had to be something more delicate. While thinking about it, Extimum came up with trying to use his purple energy, he had not managed to invoke it properly but it was still possible to extract a certain amount with effort, it was just an idea and he did not know if it would work.

Staring at the palm of his hand, Extimum concentrated and tried to gather his purple energy, after a few seconds there was finally something, an ethereal purple energy appeared on his palm flickering like a flame; Bringing the energy in his hand closer to the block of ice, Extimum hoped if there was any reaction.

Extimum's action turned out to be successful, the ice seemed to be consumed and slowly disappear, leaving no trace of water as it disappeared into the air.

Finally, after a few minutes, the figure on the ice fell onto Extimum's bed.

Now it was possible to observe his features in detail. The fairy was a girl with an approximate appearance of 16-17 years old, only half 8cm tall, she wears a cyan tiara with a purple gem on her forehead, she had large wings on her back that ranged from a little higher than her head up to above the knees, her wings were similar in shape to those of a butterfly, however, her design was an iridescent mix in which blue and fiery red stood out, her clothing was a one-piece dress With a design similar to crystal scales with blue pantyhose that ended in her heeled boots, she also possessed gold bracelets and a translucent lavender cape that connected with her dress.

Despite his apparent age, his body was quite pronounced, he had a slender and curvy figure, his hair was an orange-red color and came close to his knees, although his eyes were closed, Extimum had noticed that they were of a color cyan

Fairies are not usually very considered in the current age, they are seen as nothing more than beautiful and decorative creatures, they usually inhabit forests, but some wizards also have them as pets because their wings serve as ingredients for some potions, they have their own magic , although it is not very powerful, they are also one of the most famous magical beings in the Muggle world, having said all the above, they have a warlike and narcissistic character, although in general they are usually docile and have a certain intelligence, but they cannot communicate with words and they communicate with buzzes.

That is the general idea of ​​a fairy, but that is of course an ordinary fairy, the same cannot be said of the fairy in front of Extimum.

Extimum checked her to see if she was really alive, her body was cold and a little stiff, there were no obvious signs of life in her and she also couldn't feel any spark of life inside her, but Extimum had the feeling that she was not dead, That is why he had bought some potions before lunch, they were mainly: nutritional, strengthening, life extension, vitality and magical recovery potions. This last potion was for when a magician over exerted himself in the use of magic and damaged his body so they took such potions to heal such wear and tear.

Removing the potions from her bag, she took a large bowl and put the fairy there, given the size of the fairy, using the potions on her would seem more like giving her a bath, Extimum bought potions related to vitality because if she is alive, her state has being too weak, so such potions could help her awaken from her current state, of course, Extimum did not combine the potions, such a thought would only be committed by novices, it is known that potions are the product of the combination of certain materials , combining them could give an adverse effect, in addition, the potions were made thinking about magicians, not a creature / magical being, there were different potions for them, but the effects of using them were only limited to less effectiveness or they simply would not work, for therefore, I would give them to him at intervals.

Extimum naked the body of the fairy and then immersed her in the bowl with each potion for around 10 minutes, leaving the vitality potion last. It was a bit strange to undress her, it was like taking off a doll's clothes, only the clothes and the doll were too realistic.

After immersing the fairy in each potion, Extimum noticed that her body's condition improved, but there were still no signs of vitality, one thought led to another and she finally decided to drip some of her blood into the vitality potion on which she was standing. soaked the fairy.

** dripping sound **

The potion of vitality was white in color, however, when Extimum's blood fell on the surface of it, the surface of the liquid changed and divided into a golden-purple evenly, leaving in the center a red line that divides them. , after that it merged with the potion, leaving no trace of the previous abnormality and only a white potion with a golden glow.

His blood contained greater power and effects than ordinary blood or that of magicians, so he decided to use it, also, there would be no negative effects on the potion.

Extimum: 'well ... maybe now if it works?'.

Extimum removed the fairy from the bowl and dried her and wrapped her with a handkerchief, after that, he just wait, she didn't need to wake up, he just needed to feel a spark of life in her to know if it had been worth all his effort.

Not knowing if there would be results and how long it would take to see them, Extimum set about meditating and strengthening his oclumency.

...

About 2 hours later, Extimum woke up from his meditation, stretched a bit, and then turned his attention to the fairy.

Surprisingly the fairy was breathing, her breathing was slow but steady, as if she were just sleeping.

Extimum stared at her for about 10 minutes until the figure moved a little.

Extimum: "then, she really is alive." With that thought in mind, Extimum withdrew the yellowish scroll that he bought from Li Xie, it was a master-slave contract.

Extimum was not fool enough to believe that an ancient being would not be a threat to him, he was clearly a being of unknown power and disposition, what if he were evil and ended up reviving his murderer?, No, no, there were many things that They could go wrong, the fact that the natural disposition of fairies is good does not mean that there are no evil ones, much less when we talk about a being that is much more superior to the current ones, so the precautions were within what is acceptable, Of course, there was also the possibility that he was only worrying too much, but it was better to be safe, his feeling was to find the fairy but he did not know why, what if it was to destroy a threat?

A real master-slave contract is considered illegal and it would bring serious consequences if found in the hands of someone, in addition there are no methods to create them currently, however, there are inferior versions, although very scarce, they could be obtained if you looked in the right place. That said, the specific contract that Extimum bought, was not the one that was used from a master to a slave, although it was governed by the same sense in which the master can order the slave, but it was a contract for a pet / companion, This would establish a not so invasive connection and given its use, it would bring both parties closer, in this way, even if the fairy was evil or not, it would become Extimum's companion.

Pricking his finger again, he pressed it into a special area of ​​the contract and then directed it towards the fairy, the contract flew towards her and plunged into her body leaving a mark that shone and then disappeared. This was a true enslaving contract, a very limited and scarce product, it was fortunate that the merchant had it, most contracts required the initial agreement of both parties, so, if it were the case, Extimum wouldn't have tried to wake the fairy yet.

After going through the whole process, Extimum just waited a bit longer, until the fairy blinked and opened her eyes.

His gaze was initially lost in emptiness, but then he seemed to come to himself and look around in confusion.

The fairy then slowly got up and noticed that she was wearing nothing more than a scarf that covered her, so she held it with her hands closely to prevent it from falling, she took a better look at the place until she fixed her gaze on Extimum.

??? (###): "Hh-hi, * cough *, where am I?" The fairy first tried to speak, but her throat seemed parched and it took a while for her to speak.

The fairy was weak, her wings were drooping and slightly discolored, even standing seemed to cost her, but seeing the unknown place and her situation it was not strange that she woke up on alert despite her daze, although now she was awake, it seemed that such a quick recovery came at a price, clearly visible by his sickly pale face.

Extimum: 'and… she can speak'. Extimum understood her, however, she did not speak in English, much less in Chinese, it was not the connection of the contract, no, she spoke in an ancient language, the same one that Extimum had previously looked at in the grimoire merely out of curiosity.

The language itself did not have a name, because when it was spoken it was used by everyone and although other species had their own languages, all could and knew how to speak the universal language, as for today, there are only few records or writings left undeciphered in the treasury of the various ministries, perhaps only ancient families like that of Extimum keep a detailed book of the language.

???: "what is this place ?, ugh, who are you? And… who am I?". The fairy seemed to have memory problems from the long frozen time and although she kept herself in a defensive position, it was more out of habit that she really was able to do something.

Extimum: 'memory loss huh… is also within the possibilities'.

No longer ignoring the fairy, Extimum decided to answer her.

Extimum: "we are in ... well, the place where I reside at the moment, as for you ... I don't know." Extimum at first was going to say China, but it was likely that he did not know what place that was, so there was no point trying to explain it to him, it would be as good as saying nothing.

Extimum: "you can wear these clothes." Noticing her discomfort, Extimum handed her her clothes.

???: "I see… thanks for the clothes". The fairy took the clothes and changed on the spot, it seemed that her mind was not completely stable yet, at first she covered herself to cover her body as if she were ashamed, however, now she only did it without inhibitions.

After that, they both shared a look and looked at each other for a few minutes in silence.

They were both thinking a lot about the current situation. The fairy was trying to organize her thoughts and try to remember something about her, there was also her unknown current situation and finally... there was the new link or connection that she now felt with the being in front of her, when she concentrated on him, she could feel his presence and understand his superficial feelings.

Extimum likewise, he was also feeling the link, it offered a two-way telepathic connection, he could also feel the chaotic feelings he felt at this moment and feel his existence, in such a way he would always know where he is even if he closes his eyes, in addition, from his side, Extimum could order him anything he wanted due to the contract.

The feeling was different, it was very different from the one he had established with Hermione, by claiming her or even drinking her blood, this connection felt more intimate, it brought them closer to each other, Extimum could almost feel familiar with the fairy now, it was something strange because such a feeling was born out of nowhere, such an effect was there only to ensure a good relationship between the two, but it would not force the other to trust instantly if there was a real precaution.

So the two of them only looked at each other like this for an indefinite amount of time, until the sound of someone knocking on the door was heard by both of them, pulling them out of their previous state.

Harry: "Extimum, are you finished? You said we would go somewhere else in the afternoon."

Extimum did not immediately reply to Harry, he kept his gaze on the fairy and after a moment, he extended his hand towards the fairy, she looked at his hand for a moment and then climbed into it. Extimum carried her on his head and left her there, she shrunk in size and settled between Extimum's hair leaving little visible to the public.

At some point in their silent communication, they had reached a trust and familiarity between them, it was mainly due to feeling the feelings and intentions of the other which allowed them to develop their rapid confidence, also, she could not hurt him due to the contract.

Understanding that she could not currently fly, he decided to carry it on his head, he could feel that she still felt totally lost and worried about the unfamiliar environment, so he put it on his head so that he could hide in his hair, also, although Fairies weren't too weird, but they weren't something you'd see anywhere, much less one as quirky as Extimum's.

Extimum put on his shoes and straightened his clothes, then opened the door and left his room, finding Harry waiting there.

Extimum: "I'm sorry for the delay, come on, I had planned for us to visit my family's branch in China."

Harry: "Oh, I didn't know you had family here."

Extimum: "well, basically there is a branch of my family in every major country with a magical community."

Harry: "So that's what Ron meant that your family is everywhere, I thought that was just a way of saying it."

Extimum: "It is not certain that we can meet they, after all, I have not warned they of my presence here, but we can come and say hello."

Harry: "wait, if you don't know them, how do you know where they live?"

Extimum: "there is a way for it, you'll see".

Extimum and Harry left the hotel and walked through some streets, some time later, they came to an elegant looking building, with an old design, but well preserved, on its sign was written in cursive "inmemorial vesperi", that was the Brand name of all the companies under the Shadowless family, this particular place acted as a shopping center, inside there would be all kinds of businesses that were also part or affiliated with the family, from clothing stores to potions and artifacts.

Extimum guided Harry inside the building, as expected, there were many shops of various things inside the building, it was also a quite crowded place, mainly people from middle or wealthy families could afford to buy in such a place.

Extimum walked towards what looked like a customer service office, as he approached, his appearance that he had maintained since he arrived in China, began to change to his original appearance, he attracted some glances from the people around him, but nothing more.

Extimum also felt the surprise and alarm of the fairy to see his appearance change.

The person who ran the reception noticed his arrival, he was a middle-aged man, with Asian features, he had a shaved head and his eyes were brown, he wore a Buddhist kasaya, he had kept his eyes closed until he noticed the entrance of Extimum .

???: "good afternoon, dear customer, how can I help you?" The man spoke directly in English, probably understanding the origins of Extimum.

Extimum: "Please, send a message to anyone in the family with whom you can communicate, tell them that a guest from the English branch has come to visit." Extimum went straight to what he needed, without giving too many details, It was common knowledge among the family members that all the receptionists in customer service, were actually the administrators of the place and that they had direct contact with the family, they were the main connection to communicate with the local branch of the family if not the normal means were available.

???: "blood will not flow without drawing your sword." The man just nodded a little and then blurted out a sentence.

His words confused Harry, who was next to Extimum, there was no logical follow-up to such words.

Extimum: "but my sheath will still rest on your neck." Extimum on the other hand only responded as if he understood and was perfectly normal.

The man leaned over a little and cupped his hands and then disappeared using 'apparition'.

Harry: "What was that?"

Extimum: "procedures, you cannot just say that you want to see the family and they will go looking for them, if it were, anyone could call them, so there are some sentences that you must complete to verify your identity."

Harry: "what if someone learns the answer?"

Extimum: "well, it is not impossible for them to do so, but they do not always say the same phrase, also, this is only for someone to come, if they come and you are not family, let's say that you will not get out of here very well, if at all You go out, not all branches are so kind to usurpers ".

Harry: "So how does a normal person communicate with your family? Wouldn't communication then be impossible?"

Extimum: "well, just do it in a normal way, you ask for an appointment, you meet directly with a member or if you are known you can speak to them by owl or something".

When Extimum finished speaking, the man came back, this time he came with an elegantly dressed woman behind him.

???: "My lady, he is the guest requesting your presence."

The woman shared some Asian traces, but she also had some North Americans. She had a great figure, she was tall and robust, giving her big breasts and hips; she had blonde hair and gray eyes, she carried a pipe in her hands and wore a red qipao with a white scarf and heels, she had an arrogant and cold look on her.

???: "oh, let me see, those features ... the color of your hair ... your clothes, you must be the son Callum and Ava, come here." The woman gave Extimum a scrutinizing look and then drew him to her in a hug, leaving Extimum somewhat puzzled by the sudden show of affection.

???: "Ah, you are also as cold as them, my name is Rou Shadowless, I am something like ... a distant aunt for you? It doesn't matter, we are family, come, I'll take you to meet the family" .

The woman was quite energetic and affectionate, however, Extimum believed that her last comment referred to her behavior between family, because the man next to her was clearly surprised by her attitude, it was only to take into account the cold and arrogant attitude she had by the time it arrived compared to the rapid transformation.

Extimum: "wait, I bring a friend with me."

The woman's enthusiastic gaze paused a bit at his words.

Rou: "would you trust your life in him?" Rou raised an eyebrow and asked very seriously, it was a rule never to bring people you did not completely trust to the main family house, if Extimum's answer was negative, Rou would take them to another house and leave Harry there. to be taken care of and then she would go with Extimum.

Extimum quickly considered his question, it was difficult to say that if, if you are asked such a question so suddenly, it is your life that you speak of, Extimum considered it a little and decided that he could trust Harry enough not to fear being betrayed at least.

Extimum: "Yes".

Rou took a deeper look at Harry and then looked back at Extimum.

Rou: "Well, you come too." The woman stopped her serious act and took Extimum's hand and offered her other hand to Harry.

Harry was slightly moved by Extimum's statement to such a question, but he left it to himself, took the woman's hand and then disappeared from the place along with them.

.

The place they arrived at was the union of their mountains, between them there seemed to be a dark and misty road, there was nothing in the surroundings of the place, but between that dark road was an old mansion that floated in what seemed like solid clouds , the mansion was small, we said mansion mainly because of its style, the design of the mansion was very similar to the mansion where Extimum lived, however, it followed Chinese architecture.

The peculiarity of the place is that to enter such a house one had to cross a path of floating stones that occasionally moved in scattered ways, but always maintaining a path to the mansion.

Harry: "Wow, it's beautiful."

Rou: "Of course, this is the main house of the Shadowless family in China, however, what is truly incredible is the interior."

Extimum was about to comment on something, when he felt a slight tug on his hair, the fairy seemed to feel a bit dizzy, it was not a problem for her to endure the apparition, but like Harry the first time, her body was not prepared for such a jolt.

Rou: "well, come on- oh, I see that your friend is not feeling well, don't worry, I always bring some elixirs for such occasions." Rou said as she took out a bottle from somewhere.

Harry: "who?"

Rou: "I'm talking about Extimum's partner, haven't you seen her?"

Harry directed his gaze over Extimum's head following Rou's gaze and after looking a bit, he noticed the fairy taking refuge in her hair.

Harry: "Since when do you have a partner? I thought you didn't have?" Harry already knew that Extimum had no creature attached as a companion, he had heard Hermione complaining about how she did not meet Hogwarts requirements, only to be silenced when Extimum threatened to do something to her that she did not understand.

It was normal for a magician to get a pet or companion, for multiple reasons, the most superficial would be that it provides some psychological comfort and company, it also encourages care in each magician towards magical creatures, they are also often used to practice spells, in some classes of transfiguration they were transfigured into objects or other animals, it does not cause them any real harm; some can also be used as messengers, such as owls, the other is just a cultural custom that a magician always has a pet that accompanies him on his path of magic, for such reasons it was a cultural custom for each magician to obtain a partner at some point in their life, usually in childhood, however, it was not mandatory and many did not.

Rou brought the bottle to the fairy on Extimum's head, the fairy took its previous size of 8cm and took the mouth of the bottle with her hands, then drank some of the contents.

The Fairy naturally did so because Extimum had assured him that it was safe.

Extimum: "she was the one I went to look for in that store."

Harry: "Oh…".

Rou: "good, now if we go".
