137. The ins and outs of things
Medea is a little restless.
Scott sighed.
How long has it been since this lady has been awake? It's already starting to envelop the pure-blood families outside Hogwarts.
All I can say is...... She is truly a Slytherin daughter.
I don't know what she's going to do, is she going to rule the British wizarding world like her descendant Tom?
Scott has gotten closer.
Soon, he saw two blurred black shadows in the distance.
One of them seemed to be sitting on a rock, and the other was standing in front of him.
He didn't act rashly, but was ready to hear what they had to say.
There may be some unexpected gains.
At this time, Carlo, who was a little confused by the turned Yaxley, spoke again.
"I see, Uncle Yaxley." He replied in a seemingly obedient manner.
It's just that even Scott can hear the hypocrisy in his tone.
But Yaxley is clearly not a normal person either.
"You're a promising young wizard, Elijah." He complimented kindly.
Then he stood up again and patted Carlo on the shoulder.
"To be honest, I admire you."
His tone was incomparably kind.
"You've done a good job this time, and if you want me to say, you really should have more communication with other pure-blood wizards outside of the Caro family."
Then, he unexpectedly changed his tone, hinting at Carlo in and out of his words.
Listening to his tone, it seems that as long as Carlo is friendly with him, he can even help Carlo seize the position of head of the Caro family.
It didn't take long for Carlo, a young man, to be completely lost in the other party's superb words.
He was so dazzled by Yaxley that he almost wanted to make the older wizard a confidant, and seemed to have completely forgotten how the other man had turned his face.
Immediately afterward, Yaxley began to talk.
He constantly praises Caro's talents, leading him to brag about his ascension to the daughter of Slytherin.
Hearing this, Scott was already amazed by Yaxley's flowing rhetorical performance.
Talent.
Sure enough, wizards from pure-blood families are really not to be underestimated.
Scott sighed inwardly as he listened to Carona's exaggerated boast several times over.
It turns out that Carlo and Medea hooked up on the night he and Strierna and the others attacked Scott.
"Although that mudblood has defeated us by surprise, and although he is indeed stronger than me now, I have a better future than him." Carlo boasted.
"Miss Slytherin values my potential more than anything else!"
Scott knew he must be smiling crookedly.
"I heard the voice of salvation in the most humiliating time!" Caro said enthusiastically, "Of the five people present, Ms. Slytherin contacted me alone. ”
"And that mudblood." Yaxley reminded.
"Nope! That Mudblood found Ms. Slytherin with the help of the ghosts of Ravenclaw House! ”
Carlo said indignantly.
I'm afraid it's more than that.
Scott was tempted to tell him that Medea had contacted far more than just him and himself.
"It's because of that ghost that Miss Slytherin faces the Mudbloods......"
Carlo continues, and Scott finally understands what happened.
It turned out that after Medea took the initiative to establish contact with Caro, she just used music to enhance some magic activity for him, and easily gained his yearning and admiration.
Scott wasn't surprised by this.
Voldemort knew that he was using the banner of the heir of Slytherin to gather the support of pure-blood wizards.
As you can imagine, the identity of Slytherin's daughter is still very attractive to pure-blood wizards.
Especially a crooked-mouthed teenager like Carlo.
After a few days of not seeing each other, Scott felt that Caro was now in the shape of Miss Slytherin.
According to Caro's account, Medea secretly contacted Carlo immediately after learning that Ms. Gray had entrusted Scott to start the challenge.
Other words...... In the afternoon, Medea was dealing with herself and Ms. Gray while exercising her means through Caro?
When he thought about this, Scott looked strange.
Carlo, on the other hand, immediately contacted the Yaxley family after receiving Medea's orders.
In recent times, among several families associated with the Death Eaters and the Dark Lord, it is apparently no secret that the Yaxley family wants to kill Scott.
And Medea wanted to take advantage of that.
Yaxley wants to get Scot to get the benefit by killing him, and Medea wants Scott to lose the challenge and be disqualified, which is a win-win joint operation.
In short, through the messenger Carlo as a bridge of communication, Medea and Yaxley hit it off and quickly formulated a plan of action.
The original plan was for Carlo to inform the Eight-Eyed Spider in advance so that the spiders could be prepared. Then he and someone from the Yaxley family stayed in the spider's lair and waited for Scott to come.
But the presence of Professor Flitwick broke their deployment.
However, when he got the news, Yaxley quickly found a mysterious helper and managed to make Professor Flitwick disappear into the Forbidden Forest with Miss Gray.
You know, probably to prevent foreign wizards from entering the Forbidden Forest to poach, Hogwarts' Forbidden Forest is also impossible to apparition.
Yaxley's efficiency is somewhat terrifying.
The only means Scott can think of to achieve this level of efficiency are portkeys and the teleportation magic of the house-elves.
It's just that...... Scott wasn't sure if the wizards would trust the house-elves in the aftermath of Travers' accident.
"Maybe we should be with those eight-eyed spiders."
He heard Carlo say.
"Just sneak up on that mudblood while you're fighting the eight-eyed spider and take him away, and then let the spider eat his corpse, neatly and without leaving a trace."
"And we're going to deal with the eight-eyed spiders who know we're the murderers? I don't want to do this kind of troublesome work. ”
Yaxley said disapprerovingly.
"You know, the big guys can talk, and they might tell Dumbledore the truth."
"If Trollope dies in the mouths of the spiders, won't they tell Dumbledore about what I told the spiders?"
Carlo said questioningly, "For the sake of secrecy, we're still going to kill those spiders!" ”
"No, that's just you, boy."
Yaxley turned his face again.
"I didn't show up in front of the spiders."
"You ......"
Carlo's voice sounded shocked to the extreme.
"Think of the good, Elijah."
Yaxley's voice was still kind.
"It doesn't matter if you can't kill those spiders, and if you don't kill that mudblood yourself, no one can convict you."
"But I'll be expelled from school!" Carlo said angrily.
"Oh......"
Yaxley dragged a long note.
"Then pray to Merlin, let that mudbloods kill all the spiders, and come here."
His voice suddenly became a little cold.
"If he comes here, I'll kill him with my own hands, and then the last remaining eight-eyed spider."
Scott listened to these words and looked at the two wizards who wanted to kill him, and the most immediate thought in his heart was, of course, to kill them.
But he still resisted the killing intent.
Dumbledore is here.
