Chapter 5: Admission invitation

One year has passed, and Schelling is already 10 years old. During this year, thanks to a nutritious diet and adequate physical exercise, Schelling’s figure is very slender and tall, half a head taller than his brother Draco. Handsome appearance and gentle temperament, full of rich and handsome appearance. As an elder brother, Draco was often envious and jealous, and Draco had the illusion that Schelling was his elder brother by looking at his height alone. It’s not just appearances. The two brothers are obviously twins, but their personality retreats from north to south. Because of his blind worship of his father, Draco has cultivated the arrogance and arrogance that resembles Lucius, although his behavior is still the same. She is still childish; Xie Lin has not inherited the character of his parents at all. He is always low-key, quiet, modest and polite, confident and unassuming, and more like a Hufflepuff. Although Lucius and Narcissa are satisfied with Schelling’s maturity and stability over their peers, they love the domineering Draco even more. After all, Draco’s personality is more in line with the Malfoy family’s usual style, and has a little bit. Childishness can also inspire parents' love of protecting the calf.

Thanks to Schelling’s tireless efforts this year, he finally finished the collection of books he had brought from his grandmother’s house, and Schelling began to call his ideas to Grimmauld Square 12. In the past year, Schelling has often inquired about his beloved grandmother through letters, and has long since figured out the exact location of Black’s old house. On this day, under the leadership of Dobby, he Apparated to Grimmauld Square 12 and saw Kreacher, the house elf living alone. Kreacher was already over 600 years old at this time. Even if calculated based on the age of the elves, he had reached the stage of declining old age. As described in the original book, it lived alone in the empty Black house. The elf is bound by contract magic. Without the permission of the owner, it cannot leave the old house for half a step. It can only talk to the portrait of its old owner, Mrs. Black, all the year round, so its personality becomes a bit crazy. But when it knew that Schelling was the son of Narcissa and had the blood of Black on him, it automatically regarded Schelling as its half master, and its tone and attitude were full of respect and obedience. Xie Lin knows that the house elves are intelligent creatures, but they know the rewards of grace. Only by being friendly to the house elves can they gain their true loyalty. The Sirius in the original book made this mistake and died indirectly. Schelling did not show Kreacher's condescending attitude because of Kreacher's apparent obedience, but kindly and kindly expressed his sympathy to Kreacher, allowing Kreacher to put on clean clothes and give it to Kreacher. Some of the candy snacks brought from home immediately moved Kreacher to tears of gratitude, and gave a wave of loyalty.

Kreacher took the initiative to take Schelling around in the Black House. As the mansion of the Black family, Grimmauld Place 12 is a typical pure-blooded wizard’s house. The decorations everywhere are hundreds of years old. Many of them are silverware forged by ancient fairies. 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 that it has been here for a long time. No one has been here.

When I came to the studio on the second floor, a very wide tapestry was hung on one of the walls, covering almost the entire wall. The tapestry recorded the family tree of the Black family. Schelling was surprised to find that his name appeared in Black. In the family genealogy, after asking Kreacher, I learned that Mrs. Black died in 1985, when he was 5 years old. Schelling remembers that there is still a Slytherin pendant box, one of Voldemort’s Horcruxes, stored in this room, but Schelling, who has not yet gone to school at the moment, dare not have any illusions about it. He is clearly in touch with what a Horcrux brings. Danger.

The goal of Schelling's trip is the library of the Black family. As the oldest holy 28 pure-blood family, the Black family’s collection of books, in terms of quality or quantity, is better than that of the Malfoy family. There are many out-of-print magic books in it, even from the Middle Ages. The only rare book of the century made Schelling, who was hungry for knowledge, excited. Anyway, the Black family has no successor. Instead of letting these precious books fall into the hands of Harry Potter's stubborn man who doesn't like to read, leaving the treasures dusted and violent, it is better to benefit yourself, and I can barely be regarded as Black's sideline. In any case, he is more qualified than the foreign surname Harry Potter!

After obtaining the consent of Kreacher in the name of a member of the Black family, Schelling unceremoniously packed all the books of the Black family in a portable book bag. There are hundreds of books in the collection here, which are as inclusive as the collections of the Malfoy family, covering almost all areas of magic. Many of the records about ancient magic charms can be shared with Schelling in the Malfoy collection. Xie Lin was surprised and delighted by the mutual confirmation of what he had seen. But the most precious thing is the secret curse note that the Black family only inherits from the direct line. Some of Schelling’s notes in this notebook have already been seen at his grandmother’s house, but Black’s old house is after all the inheritance of the patrilineal surname, and Druela’s daughter only has a matrilineal surname, so I found it at Black’s old house. The notes are relatively more complete and complete.

Black family curse addendum!

It's a pity that there are still no black magic books in the Black family's collection. Schelling inferred that, like the Malfoy family, the Black family also has a secret room dedicated to storing prohibited items. Schelling specifically asked Kreacher about this, and Kreacher said he didn't know anything about it. Kreacher was unable to lie to Schelling due to the slavery of the house elves, and he had no motive 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 contact them at all.

After   , life has returned to a simple two-point line-reading books during the day, doing physical training at night and doing physical training at night. Only on the weekends can I relax a little, read letters from pen pals and write letters to pen pals with heart.

Before the 11th birthday, Xueba Schelling, with the help of the time plug-in, successfully read the books and documents of the Black family. Through the cross-comparison and integration of the two major family collections, Schelling not only has a clear understanding of the history of the magical world, the formation of magic, and the development of spells. His biggest gain is to piece together a lot of clues in the massive books. Regarding the historical secrets of the Middle Ages, as well as successfully mastering the interpretation and deciphering of Guruuni magic texts by self-study.

The ancient human language of the wizarding world has the same mother writing system as the ancient human language of Muggle. Both are composed of 22 Phoenician scripts. However, after the wizards discovered the magical power hidden in the text, time went by. During the development and evolution of, the ancient wizards gradually formed their own writing system. Ancient wizards developed a variety of runes that were exclusive to their own. The use of runes to gather and conduct magic power is especially common in alchemy, but With the advent of the era of peace, the use of magic has become more and more life-oriented, and the use of ancient magic texts has gradually declined.

Schelling was an expert on ancient human languages ​​in his previous life. Through his previous life experience and the rich collections of the two families, he quickly figured out the rules of Guruni magic texts and the secrets of deciphering. If this is known, it would be amazing. achievement. The incomprehensibility of Gurunis is well known. According to the normal schedule of Hogwarts, the ancient magic is a subject that can only be taken in the third grade, and that course only teaches how to recognize common basic runes and words. . In contrast, Schelling, who has been able to read historical documents written in ancient magic texts and read with gusto, has a level of ancient magic literature that far exceeds the highest level that Hogwarts can teach. .

Xie Lin, who was 11th birthday in a few days, began to review his progress, and I have to say that he is very satisfied with what he has achieved so far. Although he was born in a family that stood in the wrong line, he might be involved in the tragedy of the family in a few years, but compared to the protagonist Harry in the original book, his start was much stronger. Compared with the magical little white Harry, he has a very thorough understanding of the wizarding world. The family’s bloodline power and the inheritance of secret spells guarantee his future potential. More importantly, he has the time-defying cheater, so My life in Hogwarts is destined to take a super-study route.

Just when Schelling was full of illusions and longing for life in Hogwarts, the 11th birthday soon arrived, and Schelling and Draco both received admission invitations from Hogwarts.

On the second page of the parchment of the invitation letter, UU Reading also listed the textbooks, wizard robes, cloaks, wands, cauldrons, etc. needed for Hogwarts in the first grade.

"I think Durmstrang is more suitable for him." After seeing the letter, Lucius tried his last effort. After all, there are few restrictions on black magic research there, and there is no need to live with non-pure-blood students. Lucius believes that Malfoy should be there to get a better education.

"Would you like our baby son to go so far? It's still a small island, how inconvenient it would be!". Narcissa insisted on her opinion and wanted to send Malfoy to Hogwarts, which was closer to home. "Here you are also considered as an academy director, maybe you can take care of it."

"You know that I and the old man with the white beard are not on the right track." Lucius looked a little ugly.

"I still decided to go to Hogwarts." Schelling said his decision calmly. Draco himself had an indispensable attitude towards these. In addition, his younger brother and a few close friends would go to Hogwarts, so naturally he also voted for Hogwarts. Lucius shrugged helplessly to agree with the consensus of the mother and son.

Since both Schelling and Draco needed to buy the necessities for the new school, the family of four took the family's luxurious night horse carriage together. After Lucius chanted the spell and the destination, the pattern on the carriage body had a touch of magic and brilliance. Slowly ascending into the air, he flew all the way to Diagon Alley. Xie Lin, who was familiar with the original book, knew that in front of the empty carriage, the invisible Ye Qi was responsible for pulling the carriage. Only people who have seen death can pull the carriage. Saw Ye Qi with the naked eye. The Malfoy family is indeed the most powerful family today. Schelling and others don't need to pass through the dirty cauldron bar to land directly from the sky to the exclusive carriage parking space in Diagon Alley.
