Chapter 5 Admission Invitation
One year has passed, and Xie Lin is already 1 years old. During this year, due to a nutritious diet and adequate physical exercise, Xie Lin's figure is very slender and tall, half a head taller than his brother Draco. With his handsome appearance and gentle temperament, he looks very tall, rich and handsome.
As an elder brother, Draco is often envious and jealous. If he only looks at his height, Draco has the illusion that Schelling is his elder brother.It's not just the appearance, the two brothers are obviously biological twins, but their personalities are completely different.
Draco developed an arrogance and arrogance that resembled Lucius because of his blind worship of his father, although his behavior was still childish; Schelling did not inherit the character of his parents at all, and was always low-key and quiet, humble and polite, confident and unassuming, more like a Hufflepuff.
Although Lucius and Narcissa were very satisfied with Schelling's maturity and stability beyond their peers, they loved the domineering Draco even more. After all, Draco's character was more in line with the Malfoy family's usual style, and a little childishness could also inspire parents to protect the calf.
Thanks to Xie Lin's tireless efforts in this year, he finally finished reading the collection of books brought from his grandmother's house, and Xie Lin began to make an idea of going to No. 12 Grimaud Square.In the past year, Schelling has inquired many ways through letters to his loving grandmother, and has already figured out the exact location of Black's old house.
On this day, led by Dobby, he apparated to the 12th square of Grimaud, and met the house elf Kreacher who lived alone in it.
At this time, Kreacher was over 600 years old, even if calculated by the age of an elf, he was already very old. As described in the original book, because he lived alone in the empty old house of Black, and because the house elf was bound by contract magic, he could not leave the old house for half a step without the owner's permission.
But when it knew that Schelling was the son of Narcissa and that he also had Black blood, it automatically regarded Schelling as its half master, and its tone and attitude were full of respect and obedience.
Schelling knew that house-elves, intelligent creatures, actually knew how to repay their kindness. Only by being friendly to house-elves could they gain their true loyalty. In the original book, Sirius died indirectly because of this mistake.
Schelling did not give Kreacher a condescending attitude because of Kreacher's superficial obedience, but expressed his concern and condolences to Kreacher in a gentle and friendly way, allowing Kreacher to change into clean clothes for himself, and giving Kreacher some candy and snacks brought from home.
Kreacher took the initiative to take Schelling around the old house of Black. As the mansion of the Black family, No. 12 Grimmauld Place is a typical pure-blood wizard's house. The decorations everywhere are hundreds of years old. Many of them are silverware forged by ancient goblins. If these objects are placed outside, they are definitely priceless antiques.
After Voldemort's return, this house will be used as the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, and it is still uninhabited. Naturally, it has not been protected by magic. It can be seen from the thick dust around it that no one has been here for a long time.
When I came to the studio on the second floor, a very large tapestry was hung on one of the walls, covering almost the entire wall. The tapestry recorded the genealogy of the Black family, and its origin can be traced back to the twelfth century.
Unlike the Malfoy family, which is thin and thin, the Black family is actively spending money, and can be said to be the most branched family among pure-blood families.At a glance, almost all pure-blood families with names and surnames in Great Britain were once married to the Black family.
Schelling was surprised to find that his name also appeared on the genealogy of the Black family. After asking Kreacher, he found out that Mrs. Black died in 1985 when he was 5 years old, and his name had been embroidered on it since the day he was born.
Schelling remembered that one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, the Slytherin Pendant, was stored in this room, but Schelling, who hadn't gone to school at the moment, didn't dare to have any illusions about it. He knew the danger of touching a Horcrux in his heart.There are fragments of Voldemort's remnant soul in the Horcrux. It has self-awareness, can bewitch people's hearts, and erode the soul and life of those who touch it.
The goal of Schelling's trip was the library of the Black family.As the oldest holy 28 pure-blood family, the Black family's collection of books is far superior to that of the Malfoy family in terms of quality and quantity. There are many out-of-print magic books, and even rare books from the Middle Ages, which excited Schelling, who is hungry for knowledge.
Anyway, the Black family has no successors. Instead of letting these precious books fall into the hands of Harry Potter, a reckless man who doesn't like reading, and let the treasures be dusted and thrown away, it's better for himself.
After Schelling obtained Kreacher's consent in the name of a member of the Black family, he unceremoniously packed all the books of the Black family in his carry-on book bag and took them away.There are also hundreds of books here, which are as comprehensive as the Malfoy family's collection, covering almost all areas of magic. Many of the records about ancient magic symbols can be mutually confirmed with what Schelling has read in Malfoy's collection, which surprised and delighted Schelling.
But the most precious thing is the Black family's secret collection of spell notes that can only be inherited by the direct line.Schelling had already read some of this note at his grandmother's house, but after all, Black's old house inherited the patrilineal surname, and Druella's only daughter was considered a matrilineal surname, so the notes found here in Black's old house are relatively more complete and complete.
[Blake's Family Heirloom Curse Supplement Obtained! 】
It's a pity that the Black family still doesn't have any books on black magic in their library. Schelling deduces that, like the Malfoy family, the Black family also has a secret room dedicated to storing prohibited items.
Schelling specifically asked Kreacher about this, but Kreacher said he knew nothing about it.Kreacher couldn't lie to Schelling because of the house-elf's slavish nature, and he had no incentive to lie.Schelling could only infer that the secret of this secret room was probably only in the hands of the core members of the family, and the house elves were not qualified to touch it at all.
Afterwards, life returned to the simple two-point-one-line-crazy reading of books during the day, physical training with Dobby at night, and only a little relaxation on weekends, reading letters from pen pals and writing replies to pen pals with heart.
Before his 11th birthday, Schelling, the top student, successfully read the books and documents of the Black family with the help of time plug-in.
Through the cross-comparison and integration of the collections of the two families, Schelling not only has a clear understanding of the history of the magic world, the formation of magic power, and the development of spells, but his greatest achievement is that he has pieced together many historical secrets about the Middle Ages based on the clues in a large number of books, and successfully mastered the interpretation and deciphering of ancient runic scripts by self-study.
The ancient runic script of the wizarding world and the ancient human language of Muggles have the same mother writing system, which is composed of 22 Phoenician characters. However, after the wizards discovered the magic power hidden in the text, in the long-term development and evolution, the ancient runic script gradually formed its own writing system. The use of ancient runes has gradually declined.
Xie Lin was an expert in ancient human language in his previous life. Through his experience in his previous life and the rich collections of books of the two families, he quickly figured out the laws of the ancient runic script and the secret of deciphering it. If people knew about this, it would be an astonishing achievement.
The difficulty of ancient runes is well known. According to the normal progress of Hogwarts, ancient runes is a subject that can only be taken in the third grade, and that course only teaches how to recognize common basic runes symbols and words.
In contrast, Schelling, who has been able to embrace and read historical documents written in ancient runic magic script with relish, his level of ancient magic literature far exceeds the highest level that Hogwarts can teach.
Xie Lin, who will be 11 years old in a few days, began to review his progress at the beginning, and he had to say that he was very satisfied with his current achievements.
Although I was born in the wrong family, and I may be involved in family tragedies a few years later, compared to the protagonist Harry in the original book, my start is much stronger.
Compared with Harry, who is a magic novice, his understanding of the wizarding world can be said to be quite thorough. The family's blood power and secret spell inheritance can guarantee his future potential. More importantly, he has the time hourglass, a cheating device that defies the sky, so that his life at Hogwarts is destined to be a super-student.
Just when Schelling was full of fantasies and longings for life at Hogwarts, the 11th birthday came soon, and both Schelling and Draco received invitation letters from Hogwarts.The two brothers naturally knew what was going on, so they went downstairs to the hall and told their parents about it.
On the second page of parchment in the invitation letter, the textbooks, wizard robes, cloaks, wands, cauldrons, etc. required for Hogwarts in the first grade are also listed.
"Baby," Narcissa's eyes were full of emotion and reluctance, "I didn't expect you to reach the school age so soon... You are grown up, and you are going to leave home to learn magic... Mom really misses you..."
"Mother, don't be sad, when I learn magic, I will protect you and father, and guard the glory of pure blood." Draco patted his chest and promised.
"Yes, mother." Xie Lin took over the conversation, "The school is not far from home. We will come back every Christmas and summer vacation."
Lucius coughed lightly, and said coldly: "I have something to say. The education level of Hogwarts has regressed these years. I heard from your Uncle Snape that Gryffindor has become the most popular house, while Slytherin has been excluded and marginalized..."
"This is not the worst," Lucius snorted coldly. "Originally, Hogwarts was not allowed to study the dark arts. The only combat course was the so-called Defense Against the Dark Arts class. In the past few decades, the professors of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class have been changing every year. The quality and level are getting worse and worse. Didn't the news last year say that the professor of the defense class was attacked and killed by an unknown beast in the Forbidden Forest."
"I think," Lucius said lightly, "you can get a better education when you go to Durmstrang. There are few restrictions on black magic research there, and you don't have to live with non-pure blood students. What do you think?"
Durmstrang is one of the three famous magic schools in Europe. It is open to young wizards from all over Europe, but it only accepts students from pure-blood families.
"Are you willing to let our precious son go to such a far place? It's still a small island, how inconvenient it would be!" Narcissa missed the two children. After all, Hogwarts is located in Great Britain, while Durmstrang is located in Scandinavia in Northern Europe. Not to mention the distance, it is not easy to apply for leaving school during the holidays, so she prefers to send her two sons to Hogwarts, which is closer to home.
"Don't forget what kind of guy Karkaroff is, Durmstrang's current headmaster," Narcissa said with a curled lip. She looked down on people like Karkaroff. Everyone was suspected of being a Death Eater and implicated. He was the only one who escaped the crime by betraying his associates, which shows how unreliable he is. "You are still the chairman of the board at Hogwarts, maybe you can take care of him."
"You know I'm not on the right track with that white-bearded old man." Lucius' face was a little ugly, and he tried his last effort. After all, he really felt that the two sons could receive a better education in Durmstrang, "I think Durmstrang is more suitable for him."
Seeing that the two were arguing, Xie Lin spoke up.
"I still decided to go to Hogwarts." Schelling said his decision calmly. "The teaching philosophy of Hogwarts has indeed been challenged a lot in the past few years, but the headmaster's reputation and status in Great Britain are still unshakable. As for the exclusion of Slytherins, we have Uncle Snape to take care of us. Don't worry."
"If my brother is going to Hogwarts," Draco said hastily, "then I'll go there too. I'm an older brother, and it's my duty to take care of him." In fact, Draco himself has a dispensable attitude towards these things, but since his younger brother and a few of his good friends will go to Hogwarts, he naturally voted for Hogwarts.
"You guys, well, okay!" Facing the unanimous opinion of mother and child, Lucius could only helplessly shrug his shoulders and agree, "In a few days, we will go to Diagon Alley together to buy your school supplies, including—" Lucius finally showed a smile on his stern face, "The magic wand you have been thinking about."
"Yeah!" The two brothers cheered at the same time.
Diagon Alley is located in London, quite a distance from Wiltshire, where Malfoy Manor is located.
On the day they set off for Diagon Alley, Schelling and Draco got up early in the morning. They ate the breakfast prepared by Dobby energetically, their faces couldn't hide their excitement, and then the family of four boarded the family's luxurious Thestral carriage together.
After Lucius recited the spell and the destination, the pattern on the carriage body had a faint magical brilliance, slowly rose into the air, and flew all the way to Diagon Alley.
Schelling, who is familiar with the original work, knows that the invisible Thestrals are in charge of pulling the carriage in front of the empty carriage. Only those who have seen death can see Thestrals with their naked eyes.
The Malfoy family deserves to be the most powerful family today. Schelling and the others didn't need to pass through the dirty Leaky Cauldron to land directly from above to the exclusive carriage parking space in Diagon Alley.
