Chapter 401 Brothers in the Same Room
"Second news - Guile and Venia left school early yesterday and successfully entered the Ministry of Magic Archives for internship. They sent a message asking if there is any important information you want to intercept first."
"Ha, you've come just in time. I need information about the Cliff Mountain City, the headquarters of the International Confederation of Wizards. The more detailed the better, including the defense system, the distribution of staff, and the legal and illegal channels to get there. In short, it would be best if you could make a copy of all the relevant files for me." Schelling said calmly. Walpurgis's purge plan was too terrible, and the only clue he had at the moment was that the "Great Flood" was hidden in the Cliff Mountain City.
If he couldn't get more information as soon as possible, Xie Ling might not even be able to sleep well.
"Okay, I'll inform Dobby as soon as possible." Daphne saw Xie Lin's serious look and knew that the matter was of great importance, so she responded immediately. She planned to deal with the matter as soon as the train arrived at the station.
At this time, the door of the box was opened.
"Can we come in, Shaylin?" said Draco Malfoy.
"Of course, my brother, what are you talking about?" Sherin replied with a smile. This was clearly the exclusive box of the Malfoy family, which was also a benefit for both Malfoy brothers. Logically, Draco didn't need Sherin's consent to come in.
Pansy, Crabbe, and Goyle stood behind him.
Pansy was polite enough. She nodded and greeted Sherin, then followed Draco into the box with a shy look on her face. However, Crabbe and Goyle strode in arrogantly, with smug and arrogant expressions on their faces.
"You... just went to Potter's place?" Sherin knew without thinking what else could make Draco and his followers so proud.
"Yes," Draco said with a bit of pride on his face. "I ridiculed him. He was just a little brat who thought he was a savior hero because he relied on old man Dumbledore's favor. Guess what happened?"
"Did they attack you?" Xie Lin showed a thoughtful expression. This was the plot in the original book. He didn't expect that the plot could still happen because he had shifted it so much. It turned out that the power of the world line should not be underestimated.
“Humph, with just a few of them——” Draco said disdainfully: “You’d never guess that even the two sixth-grade losers from the Weasley family got involved, and what happened? Hehehe,” Draco showed a sly smile and said: “We packed them all up——”
Well, although this is the plot in the original book, the Draco here is not the Draco in the original book. After being possessed by Armand, Draco's strength has grown dramatically. He may not be able to beat Sardegna or Daphne, but dealing with a few little ghosts from Gryffindor is certainly no problem.
"Did you know that the Fire Roasting Curse and the Soft Legs Curse cannot be used together? Potter who was hit seemed to have little tentacles sprouting all over his face."
Xie Ling shook his head and smiled faintly.
He didn't ask what happened to Harry, or even if Hermione was hurt.
Harry Potter, the famous savior, Dumbledore's designated successor -
In Xie Lin's eyes, he was just an ordinary wizard student. The story of the trio could no longer stir any waves in Xie Lin's heart.
Although Xie Lin did not ask, Draco knew how to behave. He said to himself: "Don't worry, Miss Know-It-All is fine. I must admit that she reacted very quickly and cast the Shield Charm to block Goyle's attack..."
Xie Ling glanced at Gao Er lightly. For some reason, Gao Er's breathing suddenly stagnated and cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.
Draco continued with saliva flying, "Of course, she has no ability to resist if she relies on herself. The three brats from the Potter and Weasley families were beaten into ugly monsters by us. I guarantee that even their mothers would not recognize them when they see them. Hahahaha..."
Not long after, the box door was opened again.
The ones who came in this time were the Carrow sisters from Slytherin and Audrey Runcorn, Sherin's classmate.
"Xie Lin, can we come in?" The Carlo sisters are deputy team leaders of the Mianlong Society. They have the "Night Charm Battle Robe" bestowed by Xie Lin himself. With the powerful family background of the Carlo family, they did not have too many reservations when facing Xie Lin. When Xie Lin nodded, they stepped into the box and sat next to Zhang Qiu.
Audrey Runcorn was one of the most admired female fans of Shaylin in the first grade, but later she realized that she had no chance under the strict defense of Daphne and Meredith. In the fourth grade, Draco emerged and she suddenly became a loyal supporter of Draco. As the conflict between Draco and Shaylin gradually emerged, she also drifted away from Shaylin.
This situation continued until Xie Ling showed amazing talent in the first project of the Goblet of Fire and tamed the dangerous fire dragon. Audrey and other classmates began to show their goodwill to Xie Ling.
After Schelling defeated Armand II who possessed Draco, Draco's former followers, such as Graham Montague and Cassius Warrington, turned to Schelling with Draco's approval, which naturally included Audrey.
Therefore, although Audrey is also a member of the Sleeping Dragon Society, she has lost the opportunity to enter the core cadre circle because she joined the society too late.
At this moment, in front of Xie Lin, she was still much more cautious than the generous Carol sisters. She waited until Xie Lin waved her hand before she dared to enter the box and sat down in a corner.
"Xie Lin," Hestia Carrow, the elder sister of the Carrow sisters, spoke first, "Dad wants to invite you to visit the Carrow family this summer. What do you think?"
"I am also planning to visit Mr. Carlo. Please reply to Mr. Carlo on my behalf. I will arrange a time to visit you in early July." Xie Ling responded politely.
Alvin Carroll, the current head of the Carroll family, is a very scary man.
When Sherin was in his third year and was attacked by Gemma Farley, the Carrows stood on the side of the seven pure-blood families and chose to go against the Malfoys.
However, after Xie Lin tamed the fire dragon, Alvin was able to make a quick decision and gave Xie Lin a big gift to repair the relationship between him and Xie Lin. Not only that, he also specially arranged for his two precious daughters to join the Sleeping Dragon Society and work for Xie Lin as a means of swearing loyalty. From this, it is not difficult to see the courage this man has. Such a person can definitely be used by Xie Lin. And Xie Lin had already planned the power of the Carlo family in his mind from the moment the Carlo sisters joined the Sleeping Dragon Society -
As mentioned earlier, in Schelling's mind, the Carlo family was classified as a "special ally". Although this alliance was mutually beneficial, it was never close enough and trusting enough.
If this meeting is successful, there may be a chance to tie the Carlo family firmly to his chariot and transform them into his "core ally".
"Okay, I will convey your message to my father." Hestia saw that her goal was achieved, and there were outsiders such as Draco who did not belong to the Sleeping Dragon Society in the box, so she said no more and simply chatted with Zhang Qiu and Luna who were sitting next to her about family topics.
Then Audrey Runcorn spoke in a low voice, "Well, that... Xie Lin, I have the same request... My father also expressed his intention to meet with you and asked me to come here to ask you..."
"Audrey, you don't have to be so reserved. After all, we have been classmates for three years." Xie Ling knew Audrey's inner feelings very well. It was just that she had a little conflict with him because of Draco. Although they reconciled later and even joined the Sleeping Dragon Society, she always found it difficult to face herself deep down in her heart.
"There's no problem with your proposal. Tell Mr. Runcorn that I accept his invitation to meet him." Sherin said with a hearty smile. Sherin's easy-going attitude made Audrey feel dazed. Her mind seemed to have returned to the first grade, when Sherin had not yet revealed his terrifying strength and classmates could still play around without any scruples.
Well, that's life. Many times, once you miss something, you can't go back.
"Okay, thank you, Sherin, thank you very much." Audrey said gratefully, "I will convey your meaning to my father. I hope your meeting can help you and take our relationship to the next level."
Draco's eyes changed slightly as he looked at Sherin.
While he was still gloating over bullying Harry and Ron, Shailling had actually become the target of pure-blood family heads and high-ranking officials in the Ministry of Magic. The pride he had in crushing Harry earlier was gone in an instant.
Seeing Draco's envious eyes, Xie Ling couldn't help guessing what he was thinking.
"Brother," Sherin said in a serious tone.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Draco came back to his senses and said.
"I want to reiterate to you once again..." Xie Lin said seriously: "You, Draco Malfoy, will be the next head of the Malfoy family."
"Oh, okay, I know," Draco scratched his scalp, not quite understanding what Sherin meant.
"I have my own plans..." Xie Lin said, "I will strive for glory for the family in my own way, but this does not mean that you can slack off. You are the first heir to the family. You have your own things to do and your own goals to strive for. Do you understand what I mean?"
Draco swallowed and said nervously, "Xie Lin, I'm not you. I'm only 15 years old..." Seeing Xie Lin's unfriendly expression, Draco instantly changed his expression. He pretended to be mature and said, "Well, don't worry, I will try my best."
Xie Ling laughed in silence. He knew in his heart that after two lifetimes as a human being, his mind was naturally much more mature than these people. It seemed that his requirements for Draco were a bit too harsh.
"There is one more thing I must explain to you now." Xie Ling said in a deep voice.
"Well, you said."
"You also know that my father has worked diligently for the family over the years and has built up a considerable network of contacts, including the five major families of Goyle, Crabbe, Burke, Borgin, and Parkinson... These forces are the most loyal and reliable allies of the Malfoy family. I have no intention of bringing them under my command..."
"You mean..." Draco said hesitantly.
"It means exactly what it says. These forces will belong to you in the future. You must manage these connections well and make them become your powerful aids in taking the position of head of the family!" Xie Ling said, staring into Draco's eyes.
As mentioned before, Sherin clearly separated the forces loyal to the Malfoy family from those loyal to himself.
The five families mentioned above were all former allies of the Malfoy family, and he intended to leave them all to Draco instead of bringing them into the Dragon Society.
In this way, Draco will have talented people at his disposal and his own resources at his disposal, becoming a true pure-blood family head instead of becoming his own puppet and living under his own shadow.
There is another benefit to completely separating the two forces.
The enemies that Xie Ling faced were definitely not what Draco could deal with. Whether in terms of mental or magical strength, Draco was far from reaching that level.
In this way, no matter what Shailling's final outcome is, the inheritance of the Malfoy family can be guaranteed, and Shailling can be free from worries about his family and family.
Then, Schelling sternly warned Goyle and Crabbe to play the role of companions well and assist Draco wholeheartedly, especially Crabbe, who was quite scheming. In the original book, his true colors were revealed after Draco lost power, and he also secretly learned the Fiery Fire Curse.
The name of Shaylin has an indescribable deterrent effect on the young wizards of Slytherin. With Shaylin's warning, and the fact that Draco here is much more powerful than the one in the original book, it is expected that Crabbe will no longer dare to hide any thoughts that he shouldn't have in his heart.
As for Pansy, she seems to have changed a lot. As Draco's wife and the future wife of the Malfoy family, she can be regarded as a good match. Sherin doesn't need to worry about it. (End of this chapter)
