Taking advantage of the nonsense with Ron, Melda, who finally swallowed a steak in its entirety, wiped her mouth and sat up straight, and began to tell a story about the Potter family.

"The Potter family is an ancient wizarding family, and because the span of history is too long, the earliest surviving founder of the Potter family was a 12th-century wizard named Linfred."

"That's a wizard with extraordinary achievements in potions, and his invention of bone spirits and refreshing potions has brought the Potter family a great fortune."

"The most famous thing about the Potter family in the last hundred years is your great-grandfather, Henry Potter. During his tenure as a member of the Wizengamot Council, he repeatedly denounced Archer Evermund, then Minister for Magic, for a resolution prohibiting the wizarding community from helping Muggles in World War I. and publicly supported Muggles on several occasions, which directly led to the exclusion of the Potter family from the "Twenty-Eight Holy Families". ”

After drinking a glass of juice to moisten her throat, Melda continued: "Your grandfather, Fremont Potter, invented a quick-shun softener, but it is a popular product that has caused witches to scramble wildly. ”

"So, Harry, you've been rich for generations."

"Uhhhh

He thought it was left to him by his parents, but now he understands that this should be the result of his family's years of hard work.

"Wow! I didn't expect you to be so rich, Harry!! At the mention of money, Ron immediately expressed envy, although he had been shocked by Harry's 'bold' shot on the train, but now he knew that it might be just the tip of the iceberg of Harry's huge fortune.

"It's nothing, the Potter family has another line besides the British lineage." Melda continued, in a surprising voice.

"Far across the ocean, the United States. That's where the Potter family flourished, and when the first Magical Congress of America was formed, one of Harry's ancestors was one of the original twelve Aurors. ”

Even now, the Porters still have a strong presence in the United States. And that bloodline has never been broken, maybe one day Harry will meet his distant cousin in the United States. ”

"Huh?" Harry was amazed, he never expected that there would be his own blood relatives in this world. (Except for my aunt's family)

"No, Ron is still Malfoy's cousin, what's the use? This kind of thin bloodline is not reliable at all, and besides, you and your American cousin have been separated for more than 200 years, and now people recognize you or not. Melda ruthlessly exposed Harry's careful thoughts.

"But—" Harry was a little reluctant to explain something, he just didn't want to live in his aunt's house anymore, and for Harry, as long as he didn't live in his aunt's house, he could accept whoever he went. The thought that he would have to return to that cold home for the summer vacation gave Harry a chill.

"Harry, too, the older the pure-blood wizards, the more confused their relationship becomes. The American crowd is certainly unreliable. Ron said solemnly.

"Really?"

"Melda, I don't understand, how do you know so much?" Hermione, who was on the side, finally couldn't help it, so she asked.

Even the members of the pure-blood family didn't necessarily know so much about the secrets of the pure-blood family, and she really couldn't figure out how Melda knew so much.

"Because I'm a pure-blood, too!" Melda casually made up a reason to prevaricate.

"Huh!" Obviously, this answer didn't satisfy Hermione. She had disbelief written all over her face, and even glanced at Ron a few times, the meaning was obvious, why didn't Ron know anything about that guy who was also a pureblood?

"Uh... It's actually quite simple, well, as if I haven't introduced myself to you yet. ”

Melda pretended to be a gentleman and lifted a few strands of broken hair in front of her, then straightened her neck and said in an old-fashioned tone: "Melda Estes Corris." ”

"The important surname Estes, when you know it well enough, you will understand."

"Of course, if you don't have anything else to do, I'd advise you to hurry to class since you're going to be late for the afternoon in the history of magic."

With that, Melda immediately got up, then put the hood back on, and disappeared without a trace.

"Okay, it's time for class."

As if she hadn't seen what Melda had just been in the middle of, Hermione stood up first with a blank face, and then walked alone towards the outside of the auditorium.

Our Miss Xueba seems to have been hit, and I think the next few days will be a hard time of hard study.

"Damn. Melda, this guy didn't even wait for us. Harry, let's go too. Ron got up.

He and Harry were almost late for the Transfiguration class in the morning, but fortunately, Melda, who had already left, turned back and the two of them didn't get lost in the castle stairs.

"Hmm." Harry nodded heavily, quickly picked up the textbook on the table, and followed Ron all the way out of the Great Hall, seemingly in a good mood, sweeping away the gloom created by Snape.

"Potter?"

"Potter!!"

The History of Magic classroom is taught by Professor Cuthbert Binns the Ghost, and is located on the second floor of the castle.

Professor Binns has been teaching at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry since its inception, so Professor Binns is almost a living fossil of Hogwarts. He knew almost all the secrets about the castle.

During his lifetime, he was well-read, quick-witted, and clear-minded, so he was invited to be a professor of the history of magic at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Until one day he forgot to bring his body to class and died because of it. But instead of stopping his teaching career, he became the only ghost professor in the history of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

According to the story circulating at Hogwarts, Professor Binns did not realize that he was actually dead. Or maybe Professor Binns has become a part of Hogwarts. Just like the castle itself, it has witnessed countless genius wizards and academic giants.

He will be alone with Hogwarts with his soul that transcends time, eternal and unchanging.

As soon as she stepped into the history of magic classroom, Melda was shocked.

This is because as soon as he steps into the classroom on his front foot, he automatically gains two magic skills.

Intermediate History of Magic Theory Lv3 0%

wise man

The two passive skills that suddenly popped up really startled Melda, and after learning about these two skills, a wave of ecstasy immediately surged into her heart.

Intermediate Theory of the History of Magic, unlike the theoretical skills of other subjects, only adds to the parts related to it, such as his primary Transfiguration Theory, after mastering this skill, he has a bonus of about 10% for all spells related to transfiguration. Whether it's learning or the release of magic.

But this intermediate theory of the history of magic is different, he is actually a bonus to all subjects, as long as he is magic, no matter what discipline he has, he has a 15% bonus.

Good guy, when this skill is upgraded in the future, he can't even think of becoming a generation of spell masters, after all, the bonus is there.

But what excites Melda even more is the skill of the wise man.
