After knocking on the door, accompanied by a middle-aged woman's call, Amorst and Remus walked into the room one after the other.
In the office that is as large as half a classroom, there are two women sitting separately at two desks. The middle-aged woman with shoulder-length hair dyed red should be the one who called the two in. She sat in her position, boredom, flipping through a Muggle magazine with many knitted patterns.
The other desk, much smaller, was piled with stacks of thick documents, and behind it was to sit a much younger woman (who looked to be just out of her magical school years).
She was very beautiful, with delicate and refined facial features, and her overflowing chestnut-colored long hair shone with a luster. Her white skin was translucent, as if bathed in an impeccable layer of moonlight. At this moment, she was faintly pursing her delicate lips and focusing on organizing the daily wizard entry materials.
The only unattractive thing was that her bound and professional ponytail and her serious and concentrated expression slightly diluted her beauty.
Amorst's abnormally halted steps caused Lems to be puzzled. Standing beside him, he quickly glanced at Amorst, and then a hint of astonishment flickered through his mind.
Amorst was looking at the seemingly assistant girl, with a slight open mouth, and his normally serious eyes seemed to faintly reveal a trace of confusion. Lems followed Amorst's gaze and then discovered the outstanding appearance of this assistant.
Amorst pursed his lips and said, and a flash of light passed through his purple eyes.
The windows of this underground office deep in the earth were obviously enchanted, casting a view of an infinite and brilliant starry sky beneath which there is a forest rolling like the waves of the sea. Amidst the breeze that invigorates the soul, there are also occasional ethereal and distant bird calls.
"Hello."
"haha--"
"Oh, of course there's no problem."
This was completely unexpected. Lems looked surprised at Amorst, only to find that Amorst's face also showed confusion.
"Last year's Quidditch World Cup Final!"
Ms. Hill inhaled deeply, she knew that Mr.Brian was definitely confused, so, she voluntarily said.
"That spectacular century match, I was with Hammon and Duncan. Oh, they're my son and husband; they were there too. You stopped that Black Witch; we all think you're the greatest wizard of our time. Oh, Hammon has posters of you all over his bedroom, and he's got a whole stack of your Chocolate Frog cards. Oh, I dare say he'd faint with excitement if he knew I'd met you. Can I ask for an autograph for him?"
Ms. Hill continued to pant, she struggled to keep her composure and asked,
"I'm Mandy Hill, oh, of course, those who come here are all to get a license!"
Amorst, whose expression had been distracted, finally came to his senses. He pursed his lips and returned to a normal demeanor, smiling warmly at the middle-aged witch.
He has known Amorst for quite a long time.
Amelia quickly glanced at Mandy, her eyes filled with a trace of helplessness. She knew that this boss had completely lost control and couldn't handle her essential duties. Amelia had to bite her lips and muster up the courage to say.
Whether it's the profound and mysterious mastery of magic or the wisdom that understands people's hearts, in short, Amorst's shrewdness and strong ability makes many people who are unfamiliar with him feel reverent. Of course, once you get to know Amorst well, you'll know that he is a very easy-to-get-along-with wizard; he is always considerate and attentive to others' feelings.
Suddenly, Lems had an urge to burst into laughter.
"Oh, damn, I forgot to introduce!"
"Hello, ma'am, I'm Amorst Brenn, and this is Lems Lupin beside me. We're here to process the wizard entry permit."
Unlike Ms. Hill, who was excited, she walked with a stately and serious step towards Amorst, extending her hand, speaking in a restrained and stable tone.
"It's a great honor to meet you, Mr.Brenn."
Amorst smiled.
"If you're willing to help me with the entry process, Ms. Hill, I can leave a signature for your son, how about it?"
At one moment, the unusual silence woke up the middle-aged witch who was reading the magazine in the office and the young girl who was sorting out the materials, they put down their hands at the same time and looked at the two men behind the door.
"Oh, of course, of course..."
Lems's words were interrupted by a loud, excited scream.
But besides the false illusions created by magic, there was only the sound of the young girl flipping through the materials in the room.
Such an outstanding wizard always makes people subconsciously ignore his age, as Lems himself does most of the time, subconsciously treating Amorst as an older wizard than he is. Just like Albus, but in reality, he is only a young man in his early twenties!
Lems smiled and said, "I pulled out two stamped parchment documents from my briefcase. I hesitated for a moment, and then I handed them to Ms. Hill, but she was too busy talking to Amorst and handed them casually to Amelia."
"My purpose of coming here is to promote a business cooperation. I submitted a license for the sale of a wonderful alchemical item in the United States through the Cooperation Bureau, but unfortunately, it was not approved. Therefore, I came here hoping to meet with relevant responsible personnel."
"Good heavens!"
"According to the regulations, you need to show the wizard entry and exit management office and joint approval of safety department."
The middle-aged witch's eyes sparkled with excitement, and she stared at Amorst so intently that she couldn't find her voice.
"Mr. Brenn, and Mr. Lupin--"
Ms. Hill tapped her forehead, smiling warmly.
"That is Amelia Deter, she just graduated from Efamoney last year. A talented young witch who passed all her courses with flying colors and was directly recruited. Currently she is doing an internship here. But I can bet that she won't be staying here for long before being transferred to a more critical department. She dreams of becoming an Auror. Oh, by the way, she also adores you!"
"I mean, what an honor, Mr. Brenn, I didn't expect... Oh, that I would actually get to!"
The middle-aged witch who was reading the magazine stood up suddenly from her chair, dodging the table and quickly running to the two men in front of her. She paid no attention to the somewhat embarrassed Lems, who stepped aside instinctively, staring wide-eyed at Amorst's face, covering her mouth with a trembling voice.
Amorst seemed to be nervous. He hesitated for a few seconds before extending his hand and gently shaking Amelia's hand slightly. Then he immediately let go.
"So..."
"Mr. Brenn, what brings you to New York?"
Ms. Hill was ecstatic. She grabbed Amorst's sleeve and walked towards her desk, turning her head to find that her assistant was also staring at Amorst Brenn with intense eyes.
The grandeur made Ms. Hill lose her composure. She grabbed Amorst's hand tightly and shook it vigorously a few times, then pulled back to wipe away the tears of excitement and emotion that had welled up.
"You remember, Mr. Brenn, you saved our family's life!"
Ms. Hill's voice remained shrill.
Cough cough—
Lems stepped forward from Amorst's side, he believed that he had to stand up at this time.
"Good day, two ladies. We've come from London and need to handle--"
Holding two application receipt sheets, Amelia hurried back to her desk, took out a scanner that looked like a Muggle magnifying glass from the drawer, and checked each word for any fake blue seals that were constantly twisting.
Ms. Hill nodded happily, her eyes were fixed on Amorst, without paying any attention to what Amorst was saying. However, even though Amelia's eyes were fluttering, she was staring at Amorst non-stop. But it seemed that she had heard what Amorst said.
So, the look Amorst gave to that beautiful girl was no longer so absurd and out of place.
"I won't mistake you, I definitely won't. Oh my God, I couldn't possibly mistake you, you are."
Being introduced like that, Amelia's face flushed with a blush, and her brown eyes flashed with embarrassment. However, beyond that, she did not have many other rude behaviors.
Lems's entry permit was in order, and Amelia used special cutting tools to trim Lems's photo and key information, pasting them onto a hard shell miniature book similar to a Muggle passport and then stamping it.
Then, she repeated the process for Amorst's entry permit, and the stamp and signature were also fine.
Of course, Amorst Brenn of all people wouldn't be involved in such disgraceful actions. However, when she saw the silver glow of the small characters at the bottom of the receipt that had been specially enchanted with magic, Amelia was taken aback.
