Chapter 235

Magic Luggage Space, Corridor Outside the Alchemy Room

"Sunny, are you sure this is the place?"

Peter held the small creature in his arms and asked as he approached the door of the room not far away.

Gu! Gu!

Sunny took another look, confirmed it, and called out.

There's no mistake—it's the alchemy room the keeper mentioned before, and Sunny had been inside once before.

Although after that visit, the keepers never let him in again.

Hmph, wasn't it just a matter of holding a few balls and playing with them?

As a result, the keeper had stopped letting him touch anything, saying that children shouldn't play with bombs and the like.

"Okay, don't lie to me. If you're lying again, I won't bring you a cake next time." Peter raised Sunny, held him in front of him, and said sincerely.

Gu! Gu!

"Oh, Sunny, no more excuses. You didn't exercise last time, and Professor Lockhart found out."

Gu! Gu!

Sunny looked at Peter, flapped his wings, and cried out, trying hard to display a decisive expression on his little face. It was as if to guarantee, I definitely won't lie to you this time.

"Alright, Sunny, I believe you."

With that, Peter placed Sunny on his shoulder, walked up to the door, knocked gently three times, and called out, "Hello, is Mr. Bruno here? Professor Lockhart asked me to find you."

Click!

As Peter finished speaking, the door opened with a soft click.

Peter saw a short, strange creature that resembled a house-elf.

"Kid, why did the master send you to me?" Bruno the goblin asked, looking at Peter.

But Peter, instead of answering immediately, was busy looking around at the various strange things in the room.

He had to admit, this room was quite large, with many shelves lined up. There were not only books on them but also dark golden stones, gray wood, and other things he couldn't identify.

What he could clearly see were some black magic cards, some shoes, sticks, and the like.

Suddenly, Peter's eyes widened in astonishment.

If he wasn't mistaken, there seemed to be a grenade, a pistol, and even a machine gun on one of the shelves.

"Kid, why did the master send you to me?" Bruno repeated, irritated by the Muggle's wandering gaze.

The goblin's question brought Peter back to his senses. He scratched his head and said, somewhat embarrassed, "Mr. Bruno, Professor Lockhart said that I could ask you to customize a magic item."

"Oh." Bruno responded simply and then stared at Peter.

Seeing Peter's discomfort, he asked, "What's your name? What kind of magic item do you want?"

Hearing this, Peter's eyes lit up, and he immediately replied, "My name is Peter Parker."

"As for the magic item, I was wondering if there's something that could let me fly? Or maybe something that could retract a spider web automatically, or even let me use a shield like Mr. Lockhart for defense?"

"…"

As Peter continued to rattle off increasingly fantastical ideas, Bruno's face darkened.

Seeing that Peter didn't seem to be stopping, the goblin quickly interrupted, "Peter, shut up. Creating magic items isn't as simple as you think."

"Just give me 2 or 3 functions."

Then, he added, "And nothing too outrageous."

Hearing Bruno's words, Peter felt a little disappointed. He thought carefully for a moment, then hesitantly said, "Mr. Bruno, I'd like something that can store a large amount of the spider web I synthesize and shoot it out whenever I need it."

"Like this!"

As he spoke, Peter stretched out his right hand and gave it a slight shake. Instantly, a white thread shot toward the top of a nearby bookshelf.

The next moment, the white thread, now carrying a grenade, flew back into Peter's hand.

Gu! Gu!

When Sunny saw the familiar ball, he instinctively called out, curious and ready to play with it.

But remembering what the keeper had said before, he restrained himself.

Bruno looked curiously at the Muggle in front of him. He was a Muggle, but he didn't seem like one—his abilities were quite unique.

This must be a product of the new world.

Bruno studied Peter, his eyes revealing a spark of interest, as if he were examining a precious magical artifact.

Feeling slightly uncomfortable under Bruno's gaze, Peter quickly reminded him, "Mr. Bruno, Professor Lockhart said you could help me."

Hearing his master's name and noticing Sunny, the master's pet, on Peter's shoulder, a trace of regret flashed in Bruno's eyes. It was a pity that this guy had a close relationship with his master.

After thinking it over, Bruno said, "That's no problem. What other functions do you want?"

Then, as if he remembered something, he added, "But only two more. No more than that."

"I'd like something that can change clothes instantly." Peter thought for a moment and said, "Of course, being invisible would be great too."

"And if possible, a function similar to a defensive shield or barrier."

After hearing this, Bruno pondered for a while and then said slowly, "Alright, so three functions: space storage, a defensive barrier, and invisibility, correct?"

Peter nodded, then added hesitantly, "It would be even better if it could change clothes instantly."

Bruno simply ignored this last request. Instantly changing clothes was quite troublesome, involving transfiguration, so it was better not to attempt it.

He then asked, "Would you prefer it as a ring or a bracelet?"

"If possible, a bracelet."

"…"

Afterward, the two continued discussing and gradually refined the idea of the magic item.

Sunny, feeling bored, flew to the alchemist's shelf to see if there was anything interesting to play with.

After a while...

"Sunny, I've finished talking with Mr. Bruno. We can go now," Peter called out to Sunny, who was perched on the bookshelf.

Gu! Gu!

Hearing the call, Sunny flapped his wings and teleported back to Peter's shoulder.

Seeing this, Peter checked his watch and said gently, "Sunny, after we leave, let's go for a run to exercise first, and then we'll eat afterward."

Gu! Gu!

Hearing Peter's words, Sunny drooped his head and called out weakly, indicating that he understood.

Seeing this, Peter smiled, knowing that Sunny was a little unhappy, but this was part of their routine.

He then headed out with Sunny.

To ensure that Sunny continued his exercise and practiced magic daily, Professor Lockhart had prepared a special room for him.

He had even arranged a nearby room for Peter to live and rest whenever needed.

As Peter walked towards Sunny's exercise room...

Suddenly, Peter's eyes narrowed as he saw a figure approaching from the opposite direction. Moreover, when he saw the person's appearance, he realized that they looked very familiar—extremely familiar.

And then it clicked. Peter exclaimed.

"Captain America!"
