The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts
Chapter 396: The Black family-always pure and noble
Following Dumbledore's disappearance, two sheepskin envelopes sealed with the fire wax seal of the Ministry of Magic were thrown on the table.
After Link took the envelope and opened it, he saw two fine parchments engraved with intricate patterns that clearly recorded his and Emily's previous owl exam results.
Among them, Link's grades were basically not beyond his expectations. Except for courses like the history of magic and astronomy, which he hadn't given much thought to, he almost got all O (excellent) grades.
Emily is stronger.
Thanks to the good study habits developed by Mr. Victoria, she achieved a full O when the elective courses were almost full.
She belongs to a genius who can only appear at Hogwarts every few decades. She is a person who is 100% absorbed by the Ministry of Magic and embarks on a bright career after graduation.
"You have done well in the exam. You can participate in my NEWT course when the school starts. At the same time, mainstream NEWT courses such as Defense Against the Dark Arts and Spells will also open the door for you. In addition, if you are interested in alchemy, please You can apply to Dumbledore and he will find someone to start the course for you."
Snape nodded while standing behind Link.
He seemed very satisfied with the results of Link and Emily, and even proposed to frame the report card.
This is what most young wizards will do after they get the transcript, because although the OWL test transcript is not as advanced as NEWT, it can still exert a good effect in the job search after graduation.
It's just that Link and Emily didn't care about it, and calmly stuffed the report card into the pocket of the Innocent Stretching Curse, and prepared to take it back to Mrs. Foley and Mr. Victoria.
At their current level, they don't need any test scores to prove themselves.
The reason why I spend so much thought on this is purely to make my parents happy.
Moody's, the former Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, obviously didn't have much interest in Link and Emily's test scores, and went straight to the door while Link and the others were studying the transcript.
The door of the meeting room was suddenly opened.
This shocked Sirius Black, who had been guarding the door with his ear on the door and eavesdropping. He lost his balance and almost slipped into Moody's arms.
"Ahem!~"
After finally regaining his balance, Sirius coughed awkwardly, and his face became a bit sullen when he saw Link and Snape who were talking in the living room.
The soundproofing effect of the old house at 12 Grimmauld Place was not good. He had heard all the conversation between Link and Dumbledore and others just now.
Moody also seemed to notice that Sirius' mood was a little abnormal, and blocked Sirius's sight two steps forward and said:
"Don't be impulsive, things are already done."
"Where did it get done? He didn't make any substantive promises at all! Let me say that we don't need their help at all! If you want Jin Jialong, my Black family's vault in Gringotts is still there, if you want power, we also have Deng. Blido is here, we can handle everything by ourselves!"
Sirius lowered his voice and snarled. He had no favor with Link from beginning to end.
"Oh? Really?" Link raised his brows in the meeting room. "I guess you thought the same way when you went to the cave in the cave some time ago? But what happened?"
Sirius was stunned when he heard the words, then stopped pretending, and pushed Moody away directly into the meeting room and said:
"That was just an accident! Some of us leaked information, causing us to be ambushed by Voldemort's men! Otherwise we would have succeeded."
"Yeah! The traitor who leaked the information you said was not me, right? I have been in Germany all the time, and I only learned about your plans at that time."
Snape stepped forward two steps to block Sirius Link.
There was a contemptuous smile on his face, and he would not miss anything that could strike Sirius.
"you……"
Being so shocked, Sirius' face instantly turned red.
To tell the truth, the first option he can think of when it comes to internal traitors is really Snape. After all, Snape's positioning in their team is just like Link's previously said, it is a thankless character.
But it didn't matter to Snape in any way.
"The loser can always find countless excuses for his failure."
Link shook his head, turned and led Emily to the outside of the meeting room.
Unlike Snape, he was not interested in pestering Sirius this fool.
This almost ignoring attitude made Sirius almost mad. He gritted his teeth and reached out to catch Link, but a wand gleaming with gray light suddenly appeared and reached his forehead.
It's Moody!
Moody's face was cold, and he said as he pushed back Sirius:
"I'll warn you again, don't mess with me! If you don't speak, no one will treat you as dumb!"
He didn't like Link either, but he hated Sirius Black more than he did.
The reason is that Link, the eldest master of the Foley family, obviously has his own ulterior motives.
But as a collaborator, Moody's is actually willing to fight side by side with Link.
Because at least when the interests are the same, Link is definitely the best ally. A powerful and smart man like him can always fully understand your strategic intentions and give you the most powerful support.
What about Sirius?
This person is emotional, naive, irritable, and not very capable of fighting. He often messes up many things and drags them back.
Moody's even felt that Sirius should have been silly by his ten-year jail life in Azkaban, which would form such a strange character.
To be honest, if Dumbledore wasn't insisting, and Sirius could indeed provide a large amount of money to the Order of the Phoenix, he would never allow the other party to join the oil bottle.
Just like now, Dumbledore had clearly reached a consensus with Link through the exchange of interests.
But Sirius just couldn't see through, and even jumped out and shouted at this moment.
What if Link got angry with this thing and stumbled them in the process of cooperation?
Step by step, Sirius was forced by Moody to retreat into the drawing room, even if Snape made a terrible laugh when he passed by his side, he failed to rekindle his anger.
It would never be the case for Sirius, but now he is facing Moody, the King of Aurors Moody!
But just fighting, Sirius knew that he was definitely not Moody's opponent, and he didn't even have the qualifications to fight Moody's.
If it's just that, it's fine, the half-crazy Sirius has never been afraid of death.
But Moody's character is still very bad.
He would never kill Sirius, but would turn Sirius into something like a skunk or a slug and toss in front of Snape and Link.
If this kind of thing really happened, it would definitely be even more embarrassing than being soft!
So he gave in.
Snape was extremely happy.
The image of Sirius eating deflated will remain in his mind for more than a year at least, and will continue to provide him with pleasant emotions.
During this time, even waking up with a smile in the middle of the night, things like this might happen to Snape.
Link was also very happy because he found that Kreacher, the house elf of the Black family, had not left, but was silently waiting for him at the door.
"Dear guest, I have confirmed with the hostess, she asked me to treat you well."
Kreacher said flatly, his attitude at the moment was very different from when he faced Sirius and others.
Link smiled at the corner of his eyes and nodded:
"In that case, you can take us to see the family tree of the Black family. I heard that the Black family and the Foley family are still related, and I am quite curious about it."
"Okay! Let's go! Let's go! Please come with me..."
Kreacher said excitedly, and began to help Link lead the way.
He is really happy, knowing that Grimmauld 12 has been idle for more than ten years and the "cleaning" of Sirius and his party during this period of time actually has nothing to show the glory of the Black family. He The only thing that can be drawn right now is probably the genealogy that records the glorious history of the Black family.
The smile on Link's face became brighter, and he naturally followed Kreacher.
Although Emily and Snape beside him were wondering why Link wanted to read the family tree of the Roush, they didn't say much.
As for Sirius.
He naturally didn't agree with Link running around in his house, especially looking at the genealogy he regarded as a shame.
It's a pity that he is being restricted by Moody at this time and can't do anything.
Link and his party were led by Kreacher on the road downstairs, and quickly walked into a small hidden room.
It looks obviously cleaner than other rooms, but it is also very limited. The mottled wall and cracked floor all show the lack of maintenance here.
What's even stranger is that a huge tapestry has been hung, covering a whole wall.
The tapestry looks very old and very old, and the color is already dim, it seems that the fox has bitten several places. However, the gold thread embroidered on it was still shining, and they clearly saw a tree-like family tree with vines, which can be traced back to the Middle Ages from the year.
On the top of the tapestry there are several large characters embroidered with gold thread:
"The oldest and noble Black family
Forever pure! "
Kreacher recites the line in a dreamlike intoxication. He is trembling with excitement and almost fainting, as if standing under this tapestry is his greatest glory. Like.
Looking at the family tree of the tapestry in front of me, Emily's eyes also shone slightly.
She also received a pure-blooded elite education at Victoria Manor. She liked the so-called ancient aristocratic style. However, the Victoria family was a small upstart in the U.S., with no background at all. So at first glance, she saw the exaggerated genealogy of the Black family. It's a bit excited.
Link was also a little excited.
However, unlike Emily who kept aiming at the origin of Black, all his attention was placed at the end of the Black family tree trunk.
There were two branches erected there, respectively, a portrait of a handsome young man, and a burnt hole as if burned by a cigarette butt.
Looking at the name under the portrait of the handsome boy, Link nodded in satisfaction.
The reason why he wanted to see the portrait of Black's family was to find this person.
As for the so-called kinship, it is just an excuse.
Pure-blood wizards have been married for hundreds of years in order to ensure the purity of their bloodlines. This has caused almost all the existing pure-blood aristocrats in the country and even Europe to be regarded as relatives.
Of course, this kind of kinship is just a courtesy on the surface. In fact, everyone doesn't care at all. After all, the chaos in the relationship is not clear at all.
"It's strange," Emily frowned after studying for a while, "Sirius Black is not on this. Are you sure this is the complete family tree of the Black family?"
Kreacher, who was immersed in fantasy, was awakened, and there was a sneer in his mouth. Just as he was about to say something, the gloomy voice of Sirius sounded from behind everyone.
"I used to be on it."
He entered the room under Moody's **** and pointed to the burnt hole in one of the two branches and said, "After I escaped from the house, my dear old mother destroyed me."
He looked down at Kreacher and sneered: "Kreacher likes to whisper this story."
Kreacher, who was staring at Sirius, bowed his head obediently, but still mumbled words such as "Prodigal Son" in his mouth.
Link glanced at Sirius, and when Emily looked curious, he explained:
"Looking at the inscription on this genealogy, you will know that the Black family has always been a supporter of the theory of pure blood supremacy. Sirius Black is a strange flower of the Black family. He has a problem with his brain and does not agree with the family tradition at all. One set. When I first entered Hogwarts, I didn’t enter Slytherin~lightnovelpub.net~ but entered Gryffindor. He joined Harry Potter’s father and Lupin to form a company called The predator’s illegal secondary organization specializes in making troubles and bullying classmates, so they have a very stalemate with the family.
If it's just like this, then forget it. It is a pity that Voldemort appeared later, which caused the conflict between Sirius Black and the Black family to further erupt. Therefore, at the age of 16, he betrayed the Black family and joined the Potter family, which is why he was officially removed from the Black family. "
"Yes! Yes! That's it! This prodigal son is completely a shame to the Black family! He does not deserve to continue to have the name Black, nor to inherit this house!"
Kreacher applauded excitedly.
But after hearing this, Emily covered her mouth in surprise, and the look in Sirius's eyes became contemptuous and spurned.
This behavior of the other party seemed to her to be rebellious!
"I didn't betray the Black family!"
Sirius was almost going crazy, jumping angrily, "You don't know what happened at the time! At that time, they were all crazy! They were going to support Voldemort! This is not right! I am not uncommon at all. What's your last name, Black, I..."
"You think the Black family's support of Voldemort is seeking a dead end."
Sirius was stunned by Link's sudden opening. He didn't seem to expect Link to say that, but he had to admit that Link had summed it up well, and he did think so.
From this perspective, Link seemed to understand his motivation for doing that.
This made his ill feeling towards Link slightly lessened.
It's a pity that Link's next sentence immediately brought his emotions to the brink of collapse again.
