Harry Potter’s Raven’s Claw

The moment he saw the girl, an inexplicable thought of wanting to get close to her couldn't help but rise from the bottom of Mike's heart. Relying on his strong mental power to forcibly restrain this desire, Mike hurriedly entered a closed-brain state, which made him feel a lot better.

Turning their heads and looking around, the Lucius couple and Uncle Mario both have clear eyes and are not affected in the slightest. Abbott has lost his eyes and is in a state of being bewitched, but the tulip shape he wears on his chest. The brooch flashed suddenly, and Abbott returned to normal the next moment.

Draco and Chris were not so lucky. Under Pansy's unbelievable gaze, the two of them stared blankly and smirked as they were about to walk in the direction of the girl.

Seeing this, Lucius forcibly pulled the two of them, and with some hatred he took out his wand and cast a sobering spell on them, which made them sober up.

Draco, who had returned to normal, also realized his gaffe, and hid behind his father in horror, daring to look in the direction of the girl again.

Facing Draco's actions, Lucius only felt very ashamed, and tugged Draco a few times to make him normal. But he didn't think that Draco might have been really frightened this time, and he clinged to his father's thigh to his death without letting go, which made Lucius even more embarrassed.

"Cough cough. I know that girl, the eldest lady of the Delacour family in France." Lucius coughed twice to try to relieve the embarrassment, "Her grandfather married a veela as his wife, which led to her She also has a quarter of Veela blood. So she also has some unique Veela talents, like charming men."

After listening to Lucius' explanation, Mike immediately understood who the silver-haired girl was, that is, Fleur, the warrior of Beauxbatons from the French Academy of Magic in the Triwizard Tournament.

Because the actors in the movie were very different from the silver-haired girl in front of him, Mike didn't recognize the Beauxbatons warrior at the first time.

While Mike and the others were talking, things took a new turn.

I saw that Furong didn't react excessively to the freckled girl's scolding, but just looked at each other coldly. The freckled girl was even more excited when she saw Furong's appearance, perhaps because she thought it was not enough to talk about it, she raised her hand and wanted to hit Furong.

"stop!"

At this moment, a handsome young man with a big back hair grabbed the freckled girl's hand and slapped her face with a backhand.

"How dare you hit me! You hit me for this bitch!"

Facing the freckled girl's questioning, the handsome young man didn't respond at all. At this moment, he was admiringly surrounding Furong, as if he wanted to get praise from Furong's mouth.

However, Furong didn't give him a good look, and after giving him a blank glance, he ran out of the hall.

Those teenagers who were fascinated by Furong wanted to chase, but they were pulled by their elders and their female companions.

"Isn't that the boy from the Bellett family? It seems that he is very fascinated by that half-veela." Uncle Mario said, looking at the boy with the back.

"Yeah, he just beat up Lattier just now. It seems that the marriage between the two of them is going to be ruined this time." Narcissa also echoed after hearing this.

After speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, and warned several boys including Mike: "You have to be careful about that girl, you must know that Veela is a very evil creature, they are good at deformation, and they often change. Become a young and beautiful woman to confuse men. When those men are completely fascinated by them, Veela will eat them. So the person with Veela blood is destined to be a bad thing.

Usually, even if the wizards of the big family like veelas, they will only treat them as pets, and they don't know what the old Delacour has gone mad to marry that magical creature as his wife. Isn't he afraid of tainting the blood of his family? You must know that it is a magical creature, and the blood of the children they give birth is more filthy than Muggle! "

Mike, Uncle Mario, and the others all looked at Narcissa with a bad face when they heard the words.

Lucius even stabbed Narcissa directly with his elbow.

Perhaps it was because she said it smoothly, Narcissa forgot that there was a Muggle-born Mike at the scene, and Mike was also a guest of today's host, the Foley family.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Seeing that Mike and the others were all looking at her badly, Narcissa quickly responded, "I'm really sorry, Mike. I didn't mean to discriminate against you."

"It doesn't matter, I believe you are not the kind of person who discriminates against Muggles." Mike said politely, but the smile on his face was unusually cold, and everyone present could see that Mike was very unhappy at this time.

"Okay, Lucius. Go ahead, Mike and I still have something to talk about." Uncle Mario's face was not very good, and he directly ordered Lucius to evict him.

The Lucius couple had nothing to do when they faced Mario, the deputy director of the Auror's office, who was of equally noble blood, and left the hall in despair.

After the Lucius couple left, Uncle Mario's face looked a little better. He first apologized to Mike, claiming that he had been wronged today, and said that he would let the Ministry of Magic go to raid Mal tomorrow. Fu Manor, see if there is anything related to black magic, and help Mike vent his anger.

Hearing this, Mike immediately understood why Lucius didn't dare to let a fart in front of Uncle Mario. As a person with a serious criminal record and *** has not been wiped clean until now, he is afraid of Mario, a wizard in the wizarding world. It is a matter of course for the senior officials of the jc department.

After Mike made it clear that he didn't care, the atmosphere at the scene returned to normal. Under the introduction of Uncle Mario, Mike got to know most of the pure-blooded nobles in the British witch world.

The banquet continued until the second half of the night, and it was not until the end of the banquet that Mike slipped out of the villa to breathe while Uncle Mario was speaking on stage.

"call"

In a remote corner of Foley Manor, Mike loosened his bow tie and exhaled a foul breath.

Mike has never liked this kind of aristocratic social dinner. The rules at this kind of banquet are scary. If you have a little bit of improper etiquette, you will be considered a hillbilly.

Suddenly, Mike heard what seemed to be a woman's cry in the woods ahead, and hurriedly searched for it.

I saw Furong squatting alone in the dark woods, her shiny silver hair shimmering, very conspicuous.

Perhaps it is the talent brought by the Veela bloodline, Furong's perception is extremely outstanding, and Mike was discovered by Furong as soon as he entered the grove.

"Who are you!"

"Are you Fleur Delacour? I just saw you in the villa." Faced with Fleur's exclamation, Mike said calmly, "I'm sorry, were you crying just now?"

When Furong heard this, she quickly wiped the tears from her face and said, "I didn't cry! Also, you haven't answered me yet!"

"Okay, you didn't cry, I must have heard it wrong just now." Mike, who had unfolded his magical perception, saw all of Furong's little movements. Although he wanted to laugh, his face remained serious, "I am Mike Townley, sophomore at Hogwarts, a Mudblood."

Furong in the darkness was obviously stunned when she heard the three words Mudblood, and the disgust hidden deep in her eyes also lessened.

"It's impossible, how could a wizard of Muggle blood be invited to tonight's banquet?" As if trying to see Mike's face clearly, Fleur came not far from Mike.

"About Foley is a good friend of mine. You really shouldn't be here. As far as I know, today's banquet is essentially a blind date, and there will be nothing in your blood. A pure-blood family will look at you." Seeing that Furong didn't use the insulting word "Mudblood" to refer to herself, Mike said half-jokingly with a smile on his face.

Hearing Mike's words, Fleur's bright eyes dimmed, "If it wasn't for my mother's strong pull, I wouldn't have come."

After speaking, it seemed that the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and Furong kicked a big tree next to her, and then said, "She always wants me to marry a pure-blood wizard, and the purer the blood, the better. It's the ability to downplay the Veela blood in our family."

"Uh, it seems that your mother is a little, um, a little too conservative." Mike said, "but your mother should also have Veela blood, why are you so persistent in pursuing the purity of blood?"

"She's a lunatic!" Furong heard the words and immediately came up to Mike and said with wide eyes, "In her words, it is because of our Veela blood that we are discriminated against everywhere, so we should Go find a pure-blood wizard to marry to purify the blood of our descendants, or our descendants will always be discriminated against in the future!"

Hearing that Mike was also a little surprised, but he was relieved quickly.

This kind of situation has also been seen in the previous life of those women who came from patriarchal families. Even though he was persecuted by patriarchal ideology, he also likes boys. Once a girl is born, he will treat the child like her parents. Indistinguishable.

"I don't think so. Times have changed, and equality of blood will be the mainstream in the future. If those ancient pure-blood nobles choose to continue to stick to their rotten blood, they will be submerged by the tide of the times!" Mike said forcefully. .

"Do you really think so?" Mike's words were very much in line with Furong's appetite, and Furong's face showed a smile for the first time today, "By the way, why aren't you fascinated by me?"

"Maybe it's because you're not pretty enough."

"you're lying!"

In the quiet and uninhabited grove, the two people who were chatting happily sat together unknowingly. At this moment, the two heard a middle-aged female voice calling Furong's name anxiously outside the woods.

Furong's face changed greatly when she heard this, and she hurriedly said to Mike, "No! It's my mother, hurry up and hide."

After speaking, he looked around in a panic and helped Mike find a place to hide.

Mike laughed when he saw this, patted Furong a few times to signal that he didn't have to panic, then picked up his wand, and under Furong's astonished gaze, he performed the illusion and disappeared into the woods.

And at the moment Mike disappeared, Furong's mother also found Furong in the woods.

"So you are here! Your child is really worrying, why did you run out without making a sound, let me search for it!" After finding Furong, the middle-aged woman was obviously relieved and complained, "Quick Come back with me, the banquet is over, if we don't leave, we won't be able to catch the carriage!"

Furong seemed to be afraid of her mother, so she lowered her head and was reprimanded without saying a word, but Mike noticed that Furong, who was bowing her head, secretly stuck out her little tongue when her mother was talking, looking naughty.

"Oh, I see!"

When Furong heard her mother's words, she immediately replied, but her eyes kept looking at the position where Mike was just now, and she stretched out her hand there, as if to make sure that Mike was still not there.

Seeing her cute appearance, Mike couldn't help but grabbed Furong's outstretched hand, wanting to see her startled because her hand was suddenly grabbed.

But Furong's reaction surprised Mike. Instead of being frightened, she scratched Mike's palm, smiled at where Mike was, then broke free of Mike's hand and ran to her mother with a smile. Mike Yu stared blankly at the mother and daughter as they walked further and further away.

Feeling the residual feeling in his palm, Mike couldn't help but sigh that Furong is indeed a romantic French, not a little bit more open than the British.

You must know that the palm of the opposite sex has the hope of developing a deeper relationship with the other party.

At this moment, fish maw white has already appeared in the sky. Seeing that the mother and daughter have left, Mike also lifted the phantom body spell and returned to the villa. Rejecting Abbott's stay, Mike returned to Hogwarts in a black Lincoln.

After returning to the dormitory, Michael found that his dormitory was already full of large and small Christmas gifts, so he decided not to sleep at all, and buried his head and opened the gifts.

The Christmas gifts that Mike sent were bought as early as when he went out to customize the suits, and they were all handed over to an owl rental company in Diagon Alley, so that they could deliver the gifts to their owners on Christmas Eve.

Mike has never been a gift picker, and with the exception of Penello's gift, which was a pair of emerald earrings that he carefully selected, the gift to everyone, including all Hogwarts staff, is the same. A magic candy spree (special Christmas edition) from Honeydukes Confectionery.

Mike received significantly more gifts this year than last year, but most of them were Christmas cards with Santa Claus on them, and it didn't take long to know that these gifts were sent by wizards of Muggle origin.

Among the piles of gifts, Mike is most satisfied with the complete set of "Fire Master's Guide" sent by Professor Flitwick, which records a lot of advanced knowledge about fire spells, which is of great help to Mike.

What surprised Mike most was that Professor McGonagall also gave him a gift, and the gift was very expensive. It was a notebook full of knowledge about Transfiguration.

The notebook looks a little old, and the colors on the cover have faded. And the handwriting on it doesn't look like Professor McGonagall's.

Mike compared the handwriting of all the professors at Hogwarts, and they did not match up. Finally, when he pulled out a notice written by Dumbledore, he was surprised to find that this notebook was actually written by Dumbledore. .
