In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

  Chapter 66 65. Malfoy

  I have lived in Diagon Alley for a week. Although the work here is hard, Jon has not suffered from the trouble he originally guessed that he might encounter for the time being.

There are many customers received by the potion shop every day, but most of the mixed blood and pure blood don't even look at him, they completely treat him as air, and after a small number of people enter the door, their faces already show disgust Sometimes, Aikemo will take the initiative to ask him to avoid in the cellar.

After all, Aikemo is a member of the Order of the Phoenix, and Jon can feel that he is very sympathetic to the situation of "Mudblood", but because this is a bustling wizard street like Diagon Alley, he has no way to give "Mudblood" a bright face. "Smith" is treated and respected by a normal person, and he can only be given some secret care in his daily life.

For example, the bed that Jon sleeps on now has at least bedding, and the food he normally eats is the same as that of Aikemo. Concealed to help him out.

  Actually, Jon thought about going out of the potion shop a few times to visit other shops in Diagon Alley, but after much hesitation, he still chose to give up.

After the end of July, there is only one month before the start of the new semester. The number of tourists in Diagon Alley is increasing every day. Many of them are parents who bring their children to buy textbooks and school supplies for the new semester. .

  With his current identity, it is impossible for him to walk on the streets of Diagon Alley openly, unless he steals a hair from another wizard, turns into an adult wizard and goes out with a wand.

   But the risk of this is a bit too great, he can't be sure of his identity as a wizard, if he meets someone he knows, he will easily reveal his identity.

In the end, Jon didn't try to take risks. His original purpose of going out was just to stroll around the surrounding shops to see if there were any "mudbloods" who were sent here for forced labor during the summer vacation like him. important thing now.

   Just today, when Jon continued to clean the window repeatedly after Aikemo opened the store door as usual, a pair of well-dressed father and son with pale blond hair walked towards the potion shop.

  They didn't seem to notice Jon, and the conversation between the two didn't lighten up.

".Not only did he accept an appointment at the Ministry of Magic, he became the proprietor of the Leaky Cauldron, and his antique shop in Knockturn Alley is still stocking things. The old fellow was really lucky. The previous owner of the Leaky Cauldron was Old Tom, but he immigrated to France five years ago with his family. Huh, I heard that he can’t accept the current changes in the magic world and has no courage to resist. In the end, this position was won by Bojin. He seems to be That gentleman has a lot of connections around him."

   "But you still have to bow your head when he sees Dad!"

   "Pure blood is the most noble in this world, Draco, even if he has a relationship, it's nothing more than a half-breed bastard."

   When they opened the door and were about to enter the shop, the father and son ended the conversation, especially when they said "mongrel", the middle-aged blonde wizard obviously lowered his voice deliberately.

  After living here for a week, Jon still learned some common sense in the current magic world.

  Under Voldemort's rule, the status of half-bloods is naturally not as low as that of Muggle wizards. After all, if he really only unites the power of pure-blood wizards, then it is almost impossible for him to stabilize the rule of the wizarding world.

  If blood is used to divide classes, then he must win over the largest number of mixed-race wizards in the magic world, and at least give them an equal status.

  So the current class in the entire magic world is clear—pure blood > mixed blood > mudblood. This system can actually be said to be a replica of the four social classes in the slave society of ancient Rome.

  Purebloods are nobles and knights, halfbloods are citizens, and mudbloods are slaves.

Although the status of mixed blood is not as high as that of pure blood, there are human rights, and the "hybrid bastard" that the middle-aged wizard said just now is actually an insulting name for pure blood to mixed blood, which is also explicitly prohibited in today's magic world. Yes, it is as bad as calling Muggle wizards "mudbloods" in the normal magical society of the original book.

  Many shopkeepers in the various shops in Diagon Alley are of mixed race, so no matter how arrogant and reckless the middle-aged wizard behaves, he still dare not speak out the name "mixed bastard" openly.

  Jon heard the middle-aged wizard address the boy who was around his own age, and combined with their appearance, he certainly guessed who these two people were.

  Lucius Malfoy and Draco Malfoy were born of pure blood, and they were strong supporters who had sided with Voldemort since the beginning of his uprising.

   Now he is the chief of staff of the Auror Command in the Ministry of Magic, and he seems to be very popular with Voldemort.

   But Jon, who has read the original book, knows that the loyalty of the Malfoy family to Voldemort is not absolute. They may support one side, but the main purpose is to seek benefits for their own family.

   Watching them walk into the potion shop, Jon continued to wipe the glass of the outside window in silence.

His shabby linen robe and the adults and children in clean and tidy robes on the street seemed out of place, like people from two worlds, but he didn't pay attention to these, but observed from the corner of his eye Following the movement of Malfoy and his son after entering the store.

  Aikemo is very enthusiastic about them. Even if they are mixed-race citizens, they are far from the privileged "nobles" in terms of status.

  The young Draco also learned that arrogant attitude from his father, and when he glanced at the potions on the shelf, his eyes clearly revealed disgust.

  They didn't stay in the store for long, but directly expressed their needs to Aikemo, and then bought two bottles of potions that looked like enhancers, and walked out within two minutes.

This time Jon was not as lucky as before. When Draco came out of the shop, he turned around and noticed Jon who was cleaning the rag. disgusted expression.

   "It actually made me meet a Mudblood."

  Lucius heard what he said, and looked at Jon, his brows obviously frowned.

   "I entered the castle in the same year as you?"

   "Yes, I have a little impression of this little bedbug. I have seen him several times in the castle. When Professor Crouch was punishing those daring mudbloods, he was scared and cried on the spot."

   Facing the ugly name they said, Jon's face didn't change much. He was still cleaning the window without saying a word, and listening to what Draco said very carefully.

   "The headmaster is too merciful to these mudbloods. Last semester, he found these bedbugs gathering and organizing in the castle."
