Harry Potter's Bastard

Clyde – The dragon beneath Hogwarts is a purely magical creature that brings with it a new species of fire dragon with each death. Wizards can't destroy it entirely, so they have to choose to seal it, and the sealing material comes from it and the fire dragon it spawns.

The Hogwarts Board of Directors exists for this purpose, and providing for the school's day-to-day expenses is only incidental, and their main responsibility is to provide for the seals.

The directors provide a large sum of Galleons and materials each year to maintain all aspects of Hogwarts, and in return, the families receive some "care". For example, a business that ordinary families cannot meddle in, or a position in a key department. Malfoy once owned a stake in Gringotts in England, and Longbottom's family also had people working in subordinate departments of the Presbyterian Church.

But now, due to certain circumstances, the Hogwarts Board of Trustees' support for the school has been greatly reduced. Garens and some of the day-to-day expenses didn't move much, but the materials to maintain the seal were no longer available. Even when Dumbledore wrote the letter himself, the directors were repeatedly perfunctory. If it weren't for the Longbottoms, Dumbledore wouldn't have been sure what had happened.

"Is this speculation, or do you already have the relevant evidence?" said Solim23, looking at Dumbledore suspiciously.

"The Longbottom family has sent me a message about it. Dumbledore said, "Someone came to the door and asked them not to provide materials to Hogwarts. Longbottom wanted to refuse, but they were threatened. "

Other families were promised certain interests in exchange for their stance on the matter. Riddle added, "There is no direct evidence of your family right now, but there is no doubt that some family with a significant position in the Presbyterian Church is meddling. "

"Those people want to break the seal?" Solim asked, "or do you have other plans?"

"It's not certain yet. Riddle shook his head, "They may just want to rely on this method to force Hogwarts ......"

Riddle glanced at Dumbledore.

Or to force the Headmaster to make some concessions, as the Headmaster's Contract at Hogwarts clearly states that the Headmaster has the responsibility to protect the seal. "

"Maybe it's Richie's scum. Solim began to take eye pills, "The Dark Lord is staying on their territory at this time, and it is not impossible to blackmail them in this way. "

"It would be nice if that were the case. "The worst-case scenario is for someone to break the seal and let the dragon inside." "

"This can't be, right?" Solim looked at Riddle with suspicion, "Will the Elder sit idly by and ignore the matter of the seal, let alone this ......"

The more Solim spoke, the quieter it became, because he realized what the problem was.

"You see, you've thought of it now. Riddle shrugged, "It's true that the Elders won't sit idly by over the matter of a seal being broken, but that will happen while their related organizations are functioning properly. And as far as I know...... This seems to be about to change in the near future. When that happens, will they still have the energy to take care of it?"

If Solim's previous rhetoric that Voldemort used this method through the Rich family to force Dumbledore and try to reduce the pressure could make people suspicious, now it is the opposite.

Selwyn's Dangerous Placement Committee, which is in charge of the seals, is about to change, and it is Richie who accepts the stall.

Solim knew about this, and he also knew that Voldemort had become a pawn in Selwyn's way of containing and attacking the Rich family.

The current Hogwarts seal is another weight added by the Selwyns family - Voldemort may not be a trivial matter, but it is not a bad effect on the failure of the Hogwarts seal.

"You've seen the dragon already, and in your only one contact, something has changed in you. Riddle said, "Have you ever thought that the dragon would be able to offer something of value?"

"For example?"

"For example, the foundation that can make a family strong for hundreds of years. "

Riddle smiled meaningfully, "Magical transformations can change a wizard's bloodline, and the effect is determined by the material. The effect of the magical transformation made from the blood of the dragon in the seal is unparalleled, and the second and third generations of wizards are not even different from magical creatures, their magic power and affinity for magic far exceed that of ordinary wizards. No wizarding family could resist such a temptation. "

"So you mean the Council of Elders might sit on the sidelines?" Solim frowned.

"It's not possible, but it's going to sit on the sidelines. "They don't break the seal on their own initiative, but if someone does, they're happy to see it." As long as the impact can be kept within a certain range - in case you didn't know, the International Confederation of Wizards has issued several documents requiring security and patrol regulations for dragon farms and dragon habitats. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"You mean, if the seal is broken, those fire dragons might have some kind of reaction?" asked Solim cautiously.

"I think you remember that very well, right?" said Riddle, "According to the Slytherins left me, once the dragon below is freed, the fire dragon within a certain radius will fly like a phototaxis flying insect. Can you imagine that?"

The dragons in the Dragon Farm and Dragon Sanctuary suddenly seemed to go crazy, spreading their 743 wings and flying straight towards Hogwarts, where they would fly over forests, lakes, and even cities...... Now it is no more than hundreds of years ago, and excessive urbanization has left few dead spots on the ground, and it is simply certain that the fire dragon will fly over the city. At that time, there will be countless ordinary people who will see the fire dragon flying in the sky.

"This is a grave violation of the International Secrecy Act. Solim's expression grim, "This kind of thing is absolutely impossible to happen, and those old antiques in the Council of Elders can't sit idly by." "

"You're right. Riddle nodded, "They may have hoped that the seal would be broken and that they would be able to reap some benefits, but they definitely have no intention of breaking the International Secrets Act...... But what about the others?"[]

"For example?" said Solim, tilting his head.

"That's it. Dumbledore spoke, "Solim, I can't officially contact your family due to my status, so I need your help. "

Solim looked at Dumbledore.

"I want to know what the one in your family really thinks. "

"I can't promise anything. Solim frowned.

"Even so, I'm grateful. Dumbledore said sincerely.

Solim knew the conversation was over, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

"There's one more thing I think you might not know. Dumbledore's voice was tired.

"Harry had another nightmare. "。
