Chapter 524: The Beauty of Aiwu
Chapter 524: The Beauty of Aiwu
After the ceremony, Sherin took Natalia to Ella's cabin.
There are already quite a few permanent residents in Ella Cottage now, and all of them are stunning beauties, which makes Xie Ling feel strangely like he is hiding a beautiful woman in a golden house.
Sharfu is Xie Lin's first maid. During the day, she will disguise herself as a student and appear as the shadow leader of the Dragon Head of the Sleeping Dragon Society, participating in the actions of the Sleeping Dragon Society.
However, in the dark, her true identity is much more than that. Sharf is the executor of all the shady affairs of Sherin, responsible for dealing with all the dark sides of Sherin. She is in charge of the Dragon Dungeon where enemies are imprisoned and tortured, the Dark Laboratory where dangerous and cruel experiments are conducted, the Forbidden Treasure House where all kinds of dangerous black magic items are collected, and the Black Magic Library where only black magic books are stored, ensuring that these forbidden places are always under Sherin's control.
"Maid of Light" Latifa is the administrator of Schelling's private library. Her duty is to manage Schelling's private library. The books in the library are all ordinary books. Although they are all precious classics collected from major pure-blood families, they are not dangerous at all. Therefore, they are also open to the core cadres of the Sleeping Dragon Society or members who have made contributions.
Savannah, the "Maid of Secrets", is Schelling's international diplomatic secretary, responsible for handling Schelling's personal connections with international allies, including communications in various countries and languages, as well as intelligence exchange and cooperation.
If Savannah's job is to serve the outside world, then the next resident of Ella's cabin will be responsible for serving the inside world.
Katharina, the "Maid of the Sword" (Schelling calls her Katharina for short), is Schelling's housekeeper, responsible for handling the family's internal affairs, including managing vassal families of different classes, strengths, and statuses. Katharina's duties are not easy. Schelling already has nine vassal families under his command. She must establish a class structure, responsibilities and powers, and a reward and punishment system for these vassal families, and decide on the allocation of resources according to the contributions and strengths of these families.
Just as Schelling had two private libraries, he also had two treasure houses.
The treasure house managed by Sharfu is specially used to store various dangerous black magic items. It is hidden in the suitcase space, next to the Panlong Dungeon and the Dark Laboratory. Only Sharfu and Shelin himself can set foot in it.
The other treasure house stores various alchemical items, rare materials and precious treasures. It is located in the secret room of Ella's cabin. Compared with the dark treasure house, the things here are precious but very safe.
Sherin entrusted Natalia to Sharf, asking her to help her quickly familiarize herself with the environment and adapt to her new life. Under Sharf's guidance, Natalia will integrate into the system as soon as possible and eventually become the official administrator of the treasure house.
As an administrator, Natalia's duty is to maintain and manage all the collections in the treasure house. She needs to accurately record the list and inventory of alchemical materials, magic items, and various consumables, and ensure that there are detailed records of the use, delivery, and entry of each item. In addition, she is also responsible for the cleaning and organization of the treasure house, keeping all kinds of items classified and in order so that they can be quickly found and used at any time when needed.
To put it simply, it is similar to Latifa's duties as a librarian, except that Natalia manages items while Latifa manages books.
It was a rare opportunity to come to Ella's Cottage, so Xie Ling chatted with the girls in Ella's Cottage and learned about their situations.
Sharfu is still busy refining werewolves and giant corpses, but unfortunately there has been no progress.
In addition to daily training of the Inferi, Savannah also constantly improves the equipment on the Inferi. Of course, she has not given up her plan to use black magic to improve the Inferi's physique.
Catherine was worthy of being the daughter of the powerful French Monro family. She had integrated into her role and established her authority among many vassal families through a strict reward and punishment mechanism. When several family heads met her, they almost thought they were meeting Schelling himself.
Xielin once promised that as long as she worked for Xielin wholeheartedly, Xielin would give her stronger power. Katarin herself has dual blood talents, and as long as she continues to practice over time, her strength will naturally increase slowly.
But Xie Lin was able to speed up this process. The method was still the spell art. This time he chose the "blood of hatred". This spell could continuously stimulate the growth of soul power through the hatred in a person's heart. The stronger the hatred in the heart and the greater the obsession for revenge, the faster the soul power would grow.
Under the guidance of his own words, Katarin has become a messenger of revenge born for revenge. Under the effect of "Blood of Resentment", it is only a matter of time before his magic power reaches the level of a quasi-mage, and this process will not even take long.
Seeing that Xie Ling had nothing to do, he Apparated back to the Miracle Alchemy Workshop, and then returned to Hogwarts Castle through the secret passage.

The scene shifted to another side. In a dark secret classroom at Hogwarts, the candlelight flickered slightly, casting the silhouettes of two figures. Rolf Scamander, the sixth-year Hufflepuff prefect, and Anthony Goldstein, the fifth-year Ravenclaw prefect, carefully closed the door and cast several anti-eavesdropping spells before sitting down at the table.
"That McLaggen guy..." Scamander frowned, his tone was full of undisguised disdain, "I don't know where he got his confidence from. He really thinks that by clinging to Umbridge's thigh, he can become the 'real power' in Hogwarts? His group of followers are nothing more than guys who follow the wind - they can flatter Umbridge today and bow to others tomorrow."
Goldstein chuckled and pushed his glasses up. "His power is growing quite fast, especially those who have illusions about the Ministry of Magic. Most of them have been won over by him. But in the final analysis, he is just a clown. It is not certain how long Umbridge can last."
"Let them do what they want," Scamander shrugged. "As long as they don't go too far, there's no need for us to confront them head-on."
Goldstein nodded, then changed his tone and said seriously: "Have you heard? Harry Potter from Gryffindor has also formed his own force called Dumbledore's Army, and I have been invited to join."
Scamander raised an eyebrow, "Oh? How strong are they?"
"Including me, there are 26 people in total. Ernie from the Macmillan family and Neville from the Longbottom family are among them."
"26 people, that's considered a considerable force, but the name Dumbledore's Army..." Scamander frowned slightly, as if he couldn't find a suitable adjective.
"Haha, I feel the same way. They seem to think that doing this will make Dumbledore happy, but in fact it will only give the Ministry of Magic another reason to deal with Dumbledore," said Goldstein.
Scamander sighed and said, "To be honest, Dumbledore has done a lot for my family and is also a mentor and helpful friend to my grandfather. If possible, I hope I won't be his enemy." (Note: His grandfather is Newt Scamander)
Goldstein spread his hands, shrugged, and said, "What else can we do? As the direct descendants of the family, everything should be based on the interests of the family, right?"
Scamander was silent for a while before he slowly said, "Maybe. Let's not talk about this. What exactly is Dumbledore's Army doing?"
"The main thing is that the members meet regularly, and Potter teaches us combat magic. To be honest, Harry's strength is really good. Not only has he mastered the Patronus Charm, but he also has a very keen sense of touch in actual combat. He is simply a natural warrior." Goldstein said.
"I'm not surprised by this." Scamander thought, "It's clear from the abilities he showed in the Triwizard Tournament."
"More importantly, Hermione is by his side," Goldstein said meaningfully. "She takes care of everything and arranges everything in an orderly manner. That's why Dumbledore's Army can operate so smoothly under Umbridge's nose. Without Hermione, no matter how capable Harry is, he wouldn't be able to organize a group of students."
Scamander nodded and was about to continue talking, but the topic suddenly paused for a few seconds. He and Goldstein looked at each other, and their expressions became a little solemn.
After a long while, Scamander spoke in a low voice: "But what I care about most is the Sleeping Dragon Society."
Goldstein frowned and said, "Yes, Shaylin Malfoy... this man is too mysterious."
"We know that Dumbledore's Army is training in dueling and that McLaggen is affiliated with the Ministry of Magic, but what about the Order of the Dragon?" Scamander lowered his voice. "There is almost no information leaked about them, and their organization is shockingly tight. We can only guess how many people there are and what they are doing."
Goldstein nodded slowly. "Many of the younger Slytherins and Ravenclaws followed him... but no one could pry their mouths open. Even for us prefects, it was like groping in the dark when we wanted to get some information."
Scamander's tone also carried a hint of caution: "This is the most dangerous place - you never know what a low-key organization is planning."
The classroom fell silent for a moment, with only the flickering sound of the candlelight. They looked at each other and saw the same thought in each other's eyes: if they wanted to complete the mission assigned to them by the family, the Sleeping Dragon Society was the biggest threat they needed to guard against.
