Chapter 545 Visiting Blois Castle

This time Maca was invited to Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France, representing Hogwarts as well as himself. . . In order to maintain his image in front of those French wizards who value decency, Maca specially trimmed his attire, wrapping himself up into a handsome young man.

Ok! In terms of his stature, and his appearance, which is always smaller than his actual age, no matter how you look at him, he can only be called a boy!

In order to highlight his personal importance to Hogwarts, he also specially selected a Thestral carriage as the basis for his appearance. The enchanted Hogwarts school badge on the carriage looked like a golden light, representing the four schools of the four colleges. This kind of animal is even more distinctive and lifelike, which is as eye-catching as it can be.

What he is most afraid of now is ostentation, because this time he went to Beauxbatons and said that he was participating in the discussion, but in fact he was negotiating face to face to compete for interests. Putting his airs out first, regardless of whether he can gain an advantage or not, at least his disadvantages will definitely be reduced accordingly.

At that time, all the important figures in the magic world will be present. In addition to Mrs. Maxime and the old butler of the LeMay family, there will probably be the president of the International Federation of Wizards, famous and powerful wizards from various countries, etc. come forward. Just by imagining it, you can guess that the scene will definitely be quite chaotic.

With a pleasant face on the surface and a turbulent undercurrent under the water, his reputation for defeating the Dark Lord may not allow him to easily gain the upper hand.

Of course, before going to Beauxbatons, he had to prepare some time in advance to visit someone in Paris.

...

To put it bluntly, the beautifully decorated Thestral carriage is at best just a facade decoration, and Maca naturally doesn't need it for transportation. After taking the carriage to the border of France with the help of the 'port' key, he then sat in the carriage that had been cast with the illusion spell, and flew all the way to Blois Castle.

This huge royal castle has not been seen in Maca for a long time. The well-arranged castle buildings are put together, but they belong to different architectural styles of each period. Walking in it, it seems that even time is changing accordingly, and Maca can't help recalling the scene fragments when he first came here.

Because of the special nature of the barrier that separates it from the Muggle world, all wizards visiting Blois Castle must walk to enter. The entrance is only on a staircase, and no other place can reach the real space inside the castle.

Maca slowly followed the route in his memory, and soon he saw the spiral upward staircase. The stairs are covered with beautifully embroidered red carpets, which set off the white marble steps themselves more and more like gold and jade.

He stood at the stairway and sensed it left and right, then reached out and patted the handrail lightly. Immediately, the entire spiral staircase began to fade away layer by floor, extending to the top of the stairs.

After the staircase changed completely, another slight wave of magic power quietly shook around him. Maca knew that the Muggle world was finally connected with the real inner space of Castle Blois.

He didn't wait any longer, and stepped lightly on the translucent steps. While feeling his magic power resonate slightly with it, he himself gradually began to blur. In the space behind this is a wizarding domain that Muggles can never reach.

As he walked up step by step, it didn't take long before he came to a big door. The big door was open at the moment, and a maid who didn't look too old was standing inside the door, and when she saw him, she immediately gave a gentle salute.

Hello! Sir, do you have any appointments here? The other party asked softly in French.

Can you speak English? Maca smiled politely at her, I'm Maca McLean from Hogwarts, um... an old friend of your master's?

Please... please wait a moment.

The maid blinked her eyes,

After giving another salute, he immediately turned around and went in. Maca watched her leave, thinking that he probably went to find someone, but he didn't know if the other party understood his words.

He remembered that the old butler of the Blois family could speak fluent English, but as for these maidservants, they might not be very proficient either.

The servants of the Blois family are all the kind with high work efficiency. It didn't take long before the lady maid invited the old housekeeper out without any surprise. Speaking of which, this is also an old acquaintance, and they both seemed very happy to meet each other.

Mr. McLean, come, please come in quickly— the old housekeeper warmly invited, The master has already known about your visit, and he is in the study now, I will take you there right now!

Willy... where's your lady? How's she doing? Maca asked while following the footsteps of the old housekeeper.

Miss is very good, but the master has been reluctant to let her out since she came home last time. The old housekeeper shook his head lightly and said, I can see that Miss really hopes to come back. Go to Hogwarts to continue her studies.

Mr. Blois is right. Some time ago, the British magic world was not safe as a whole. It is right not to let her go. Maca nodded and said, However, Willie should be fine... ...

The last sentence, he said to himself.

In the underground treasury of the Dark Spirit Pavilion, Willie took the initiative to undo the seal on her body, and released the inexplicable curse power to solve a deadlock against Maca. After that, her father took her directly back to the castle to try to re-apply the seal. It is said that the chance of success is still unknown.

Of course, judging from the effect of the weird blood curse of the Bulova family, even if the seal was not applied again, Willy is not in danger of life. On the contrary, the curse is actually more like an uncontrollable ultimate move, because the people who died under the curse must be the people around her.

If you have to make an analogy, the current Maca can't help but feel that it may be more like the effect type of the ancient magic mirror before. Let's look at the large-scale disaster that seems to act on the soul, which can cause people to kill each other unconsciously, which is extremely powerful.

Mr. McLean's activity is already known to families like ours who don't go out very much in France. Although it may not be very safe before, but now, the British magic world has obviously been wiped out. When seeing these news, the master I can't help but praise your magical strength... The old butler said with emotion, You know, my master rarely praises others.

Hearing what the old housekeeper said, Maca immediately recalled the underground battle between him and Willy's father.

Although he was a little timid in that 'fight', he finally let it go. But he also admired the extraordinary strength of the Lord of Blois Castle.

That guy not only practiced the ancient sealing magic handed down in his family, but also suspected of mastering the ancient summoning technique. When it comes to group battles in a real big scene, the opponent's deterrence is definitely much greater than that of Maca, who is more inclined to single-handed duels.

There are records in some ancient books, saying that most of the ancient magics were rough and powerful, and their performance on the battlefield was astonishing, that is really not wrong.

While chatting casually with the old housekeeper, Maca followed him around the huge castle. After walking for more than ten minutes, he found that he had entered a rather spacious study.

This study alone has three floors. Looking up from the bottom, there are stairs and one-sided corridors on both sides. Except for a desk deep in the ground floor where Maca is at this time, the rest of the space is occupied by bookshelves.

For wizards, the most important thing is knowledge. Most of the carriers of knowledge are books and paper of various types and thicknesses. In a wizarding family with a deep heritage, the largest place is usually the study, unless the family has long since given up the accumulation of magic and developed in other directions.

And just opposite the 'door' through which Maca came in, Mr. Blois could be seen sitting behind the desk from a distance, looking at him calmly.

Hello, Mr. Blois. After all, Maca is a junior, so it's not too much to say hello first.

McLean...well, Mr. McLean, Blois hesitated for some reason, but changed his words again, You are very welcome to come to Blois Castle as a guest—come here! Please sit down!

In Maca's impression, Willie's father gave people a rather conceited feeling. Probably except for that precious girl, no one can make him show a pleasant expression.

But right now, he felt a jerky enthusiasm in the words and deeds of the other party.

It's my honor to be your guest. No matter how curious she was, she couldn't show any disrespect in front of Willy's father. He sat at the round table beside the other party, Mr. Blois, I also have business this time, so I stopped by to visit Willie——I haven't been able to find the time to come over since the last time I left. Feel sorry!

No, Mr. McLean, you don't have to be so polite. Mr. Blois sat behind the desk and said with a slight smile, I still know something about what you did in the British wizarding world—you can kill that guy Voldemort. I am also very happy to die. Seriously, if I didn't worry about the little 'girl', I would have gone over to deal with him a long time ago!

Although Mr. Blois did not come in person, I still heard about the fact that you used some influence to attack Death Eaters, Maca also said with a smile, With your help, we can deal with it so quickly. Clearing up the forces of dark wizards lurking below the surface of the water allows me to 'draw' more power to focus on clearing out the strongholds of Death Eaters.

In fact, with the Order of the Phoenix and some low-level wizards as Maca for information collection, it is not just as simple as hearing. Certain forces have even infiltrated the British Ministry of Magic, and behind it, there may be forces launched by Fort Blois.

To be honest, the power disputes in the magic world are really unclear for a while.
