Without George's intervention, she'd still be running a crash-course magic school in Diagon Alley, drowning her sorrows in drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just say the word, and I'll handle it,\" she continued. After all, Dumbledore himself was writing George a recommendation—his only obstacle was his age, not his talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George produced a small chest from his Changing Room space. \"Here—use this for… whatever needs doing.\" Opening it, Amy's eyes widened at the gleaming Galleons inside: a full five thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Amy, you're overthinking. I don't plan to start at the bottom,\" George explained. \"I need a position with real responsibility—access to elite wizards and Ministry magics. A little extra… encouragement never hurts. Five thousand Galleons is pocket change for me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't interested in menial work. His goal was to leverage his Ministry post to network with top mages and unlock advanced alchemical and magical research. Naturally, that required status—and a department he actually cared about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind his inheritance from that dark wizard, George's own enterprises had generated vast wealth. As a Magizoologist able to communicate with creatures and singlehandedly subdue a Fire Dragon, he could procure rare materials at will. A single pint of eight-eyed spider venom fetched a hundred Galleons. He maintained a respectful \"rapport\" with a Forbidden Forest colony, returning regularly with barrels of venom. Once he mastered long-distance Apparition, he even sold his haul in foreign magic markets to avoid saturating prices—and repeated the cycle effortlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other elusive magical ingredients he'd similarly harvested. Excluding real estate, his vault at Gringotts was already bursting. Five thousand Galleons was chump change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Convinced, Amy accepted the chest. \"These days, climbing the Ministry ladder takes connections and coin, not just skill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All right, I won't keep you two lovebirds any longer!\" George teased, vanishing in a haze of Apparition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Eve of the N.E.W.T.s, Hogwarts Library\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomorrow was the Ultimate Wizarding Examination. Unlike lower years, seventh years had no final exams—only the N.E.W.T.s, which were optional for graduation but crucial for future careers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The N.E.W.T. roster included twelve subjects: Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions, Transfiguration, History of Magic, Charms, Astronomy, Herbology, Ancient Runes, Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, Arithmancy, and Muggle Studies. Students could choose which to take.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George had asked Dumbledore to sign him up for all twelve to strengthen his résumé. Eleven were trivial for him—only Divination posed a challenge, since true fortune-telling here was less magic and more innate talent, found only in prodigies like Grindelwald or Professor Trelawney.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his books and prepared to master the one truly unpredictable subject: the art of gazing into the unknown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the divination spells in the textbooks are practically useless, George hadn't even looked at them until the past two days, when he'd been cramming furiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, earning a high mark in Divination isn't hard: it's mostly theory. Memorizing the textbook and relevant tomes guarantees a perfect—or near-perfect—score.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't believe I missed the 'Cheering Charm!' I'm certain it'll be on the exam—Professor Flitwick hinted at it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As George reviewed his notes on divination, Hermione, Harry, and Ron arrived at the library. Hermione was visibly flustered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How could you forget? You were with us right outside Flitwick's classroom!\" Harry and Ron exchanged puzzled looks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All year, Hermione had been in a state they didn't understand: she'd signed up for every class—even ones that conflicted—vanishing and reappearing without explanation, spouting cryptic remarks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can't explain it here.\" Hermione sighed, then flopped down beside George. \"I overslept and missed Flitwick's Charms class. I promised Professor McGonagall not to tell anyone about the Time-Turner—not even you two—so you don't get why I'm upset.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only George, who also had a Time-Turner, could fully sympathize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Cheering Charm was invented by a wizard named Felix Samobey,\" Hermione continued. \"It fills you with joy. If I recall correctly, on the third-level shelves there's a book called How to Calm Your Angry Lover Instantly—it explains the Cheering Charm in detail. You might find it useful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>George looked up with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's perfect—thank you, George!\" Hermione's eyes lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to recommend that book to my dad for his shop,\" Ron added. \"Then Mum might stop yelling at me all the time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seated opposite them, Harry grinned. \"George, you're already reading seventh-year Divination books?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both knew Hermione was advanced—she often studied next year's material in advance—but George was on another level: a second-year tackling seventh-year texts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have my N.E.W.T.s tomorrow,\" he said, \"and I still need to finish Divination.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione, who had only just returned with her own stack of books, leapt to her feet in shock at George's words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",789,"2026-06-10T06:47:12.819Z",1,"novelbin.me","d84019833812fd0461ef5c1c9d5970cd183d15184f3998a527ca4559ce956a3a","marvel-s-master-of-heavenly-magic-chapter-143","marvel-s-master-of-heavenly-magic-chapter-142",918,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmarvel-s-master-of-heavenly-magic-cover.jpg"]
