Chapter 445: Aren't You Afraid I'll Leave the Pendragon Family?
Umbridge didn't care if the students below were paying attention to what she was saying. The only professors who looked at her seriously were the professors, but they seemed to be a little unimpressed by what she had to say.
"Like I said, because some changes are good, everybody follows suit, but that can be misunderstood by others for a long time. It is for this reason that there is a growing desire to preserve old habits, even though they should be abolished. So let's all enter a new era together, improve some of the things that need to be changed, keep what is worth keeping, and correct the mistakes that we have found in practice. ”
When Umbridge sat down at the end of his speech, Dumbledore took the lead in applauding, followed by the professors. As for the students, with the exception of a few two or three prefects, the others barely realized that her speech was over, and by the time they wanted to applaud, Dumbledore had already stood up again.
"Thank you, then, Professor Umbridge for your statement. Dumbledore still smiled, "Quidditch .........."
"Young Master, does this mean that the Ministry of Magic is already planning to break Dumbledore's face completely?" asked the little maid with a frown.
"Well, why do you think so?" asked Louis curiously.
"Hogwarts is a school, and the education of the students is supposed to be the responsibility of the teachers, not the staff of the Ministry of Magic. "And now that Fudge has forcefully shoved Umbridge in, and she has made such a statement, doesn't that mean that the Ministry of Magic is going to interfere with Hogwarts's mistakes?" ”
"Wonderful analysis, Linda. Louis glanced at the little maid appreciatively, "I have to say, your progress is really very fast, I think Dumbledore's old fox didn't talk to you less, right?"
"How do you know Dumbledore has looked for me, young master?" asked the little maid in surprise.
You must know that Dumbledore came to her on the morning of his day off, and his young master was sleeping lazily at that time, so there was no reason to know that she had been to Dumbledore's office, unless.........
"What are you thinking stupid. Louis flicked the little maid's forehead.
"Young master?" the little maid looked at Louis aggrievedly.
"You're no worse than me, it's not normal for Dumbledore not to want to poach you, I can guess with my little finger that the old fox must have tried to woo you several times. Louis said with a pout.
"Then why don't you say it?" said the little maid curiously.
"Say what?"
"Dumbledore looking for me. ”
"That's your own business, what am I going to do if I have nothing to do with your private affairs?" Louis rolled his eyes, "You're my maid, not my house-elf, and it's your freedom to do whatever you want." Louis said with a shrug.
"Aren't you afraid I'll leave Pendragon?" asked the little maid curiously.
"If you leave, it only means that you are not satisfied with your stay in Pendragon. If you're not satisfied, what's the point of forcing you to stay?" said Louis.
"You're not afraid that I'll leak the secrets of the Pendragon family?"
"Leaks are leaks, that only shows that my vision is not good, am I the kind of person who likes to push the responsibility on others? Louis said indifferently.
"Aren't you afraid of being taught a lesson by the master?" the corner of the little maid's mouth twitched. Although she knew that her young master was not the kind of strict person, this was too much to look at.
"He had already made it clear to me. Louis said indifferently, "After the Pendragon family is handed over to me, I can do whatever I want." If you like it, you can develop the family, and if you don't like it, then let it be. ”
".........," the little maid, "are you sure that the master said so, didn't you hear it wrong?"
"Well, this is a tradition that the Pendragon family has been doing for thousands of years. Louis said with a slight smugness.
The little maid doesn't understand what this is to break the tradition, generally speaking, isn't it all about the desperate development of the family to find a way to make their own family the strongest?
"It's not easy for the Pendragon family to pass on to the present day..........," said the little maid with a sigh.
"Of course, as far as I know, the family that was the same as ours is already doomed. The only one or two left are about to be finished. Luis said.
"Is it because you don't meddle in disputes and are always neutral?" asked the little maid.
"Hmm....... There is a reason for this. "But the most important thing is that Pendragon is popular." For thousands of years, those who were heads of their families wished they had an heir sooner and then they could play all over the world. ”
"It's ....... Aren't you afraid that other families will encroach on the Pendragon family?"
"Those big families are the most face-loving, they use some means to suppress others at most, and the real hands-on thing has never happened. "In fact, the disappearance of those old families is almost always due to their own internal affairs. For a while, because there are family members who have been excluded, and then suddenly they show extraordinary talent, and when they grow up, they hurt each other with their own family. After a while, a little wizard from the side line came out who was very talented, and the direct one was jealous of his talent and bullied him all the time, and finally the side line gathered all the side lines that were bullied by the direct line and fought with the direct line. Although it didn't fight in the end, the direct line of that family also died almost completely, and the entire family was almost consumed. ”
"Hasn't there ever been a case where a family has been wiped out by another family?" asked the little maid with some incredulity.
"........Yes, yes, yes," Louis hesitated a little, "It's just that guy is the heir of a small and medium-sized family, but he has a direct witch from a big family, and that witch is also the marriage partner of another big family, and then ........."
"And then that family was wiped out because of this kind of thing?"
"I'd love to deny it, but it's true. Louis said, spreading his hands.
Although this is a very humiliating way, it is true that only this unlucky family was destroyed by the other two families.
As for why there are no fights between wizarding families......... Muggle families are all about more money and status, and for wizarding families, there is nothing to pursue, wizards are always looking for knowledge and their own strength.
Just like Dumbledore and Voldemort, they don't have any family behind them, but they alone can shake the entire Ministry of Magic.
