A magical journey that begins in Azkaban

This summer vacation, mother Jessica did not forget to pick up her son. Seeing Rogge getting out of the car, she hugged him and kissed him hard.

"Good son, you have to help mom!" Jessica smiled and said as she pulled Rogge and walked to the car.

"Ah? What's wrong?" Rogge was a little confused.

"Barbara invited our family to France." Jessica did not tell her son the truth truthfully.

In fact, it was because King Covis VI was terminally ill that he invited Jessica to the Lestrange Manor in France.

After all, Jessica has the blood of the Lestrange family in her veins. Corvis invited her also to witness the new heir of the Crow family.

Decades ago, King Corvis IV sent his daughter and son to the United States. However, Rita secretly exchanged her brother for another baby because of her brother's noise. Who could have predicted that the cruise ship would hit an iceberg and the son of King Corvais IV would be buried in the sea.

Years later, the child who grew up in the United States returned to Europe and discovered his true origin: he was the son of Aberforth and the nephew of Dumbledore.

This also means that Covis IV has no legal male heir. As for his daughter Rita, she was an illegitimate child born by Covis and another woman, and was never recognized by the family, especially because she indirectly killed her younger brother.

"Really?" Roger remained skeptical about his mother's statement.

"How could mom lie to you?" Jessica's face didn't turn red and her heart didn't beat.

"But I made an appointment with Mr. Newt to hatch the Golden Snidget..."

"The Scamanders will go..."

"Eh~ The Scamander family?"

"Mom, why did the Delacour family invite them? What's going on?" Rogge grabbed Jessica's hand and keenly discovered the loophole.

"Well, actually, it's because King Corvis VI is about to die." Jessica shook her head and confessed, "The Lestrange family's legacy is very rich, and there are many lands and manors in Africa and South America."

"Everyone in the family, even distant relatives, want a piece of the pie. Logically speaking, I also have a share of the inheritance.

But when it comes to me, the inheritance is pitifully small. If Barbara hadn't invited me, I wouldn't have gone. "

"Ah? What does it have to do with the Scamander family? Why did Mr. Newt go?" Rogge asked curiously.

"Rita, the daughter of Corvis IV, is the wife of Theseus Scamander. And this Theseus also happens to be Newt's brother."

"Wait, I'm a little confused..." Rogge rubbed his forehead, wondering why the relationship between the wizard family is the same as that of European nobles, they are all relatives.

While driving, Jessica explained the complicated family relationships: "Yes, Rogge. Family relationships in the wizarding world are usually quite complicated, and sometimes even span multiple generations.

Your grandfather and Leta Lestrange were cousins, and they came to England to escape the war. "

Jessica continued to explain: "Corvis VI has no biological son, so Lita can claim the right to inherit. After all, she is your aunt, and Theseus is your great-uncle. Newt should also be considered your grandfather. "

"Why do I feel like I'm swearing?" Rogge complained.

"It stands to reason that Corvis V should belong to Rita. But because of some things, she did not inherit." When Jessica said this, her tone was a little unnatural.

At that time, Kovis IV stole another man's wife: Lorena Karma, and then he had an illegitimate child, Rita.

The incident was not very glamorous, especially since Leta's appearance had tainted the Lestrange bloodline. To this day, the wizarding family in France still laughs at the crows about this behind their backs.

"Rita also attended Hogwarts back then, and I heard that your principal taught her.

After Grindelwald was imprisoned, she returned to England directly with her husband Theseus. "Jessica pulled her son and said secretly: "At that time, you may see Mr. Newt. "

"Why?"

Jessica told her son softly in a low voice: "Your Aunt Barbara said that Leta and Newt had a past."

Rogge was swiping back and forth on his palm. If he remembered correctly, that incident was related to the Dumbledore family.

He rubbed his head, hoping to sort out the relationship between the families. The baby that Rita held by mistake was Aberforth's son...Lestrange, Dumbledore, and Scamander. Well, it’s a mess.

Roger gave up, packed his bags at his mother's request, and followed his mother into the fireplace.

With swirling green flames, they appeared at the home of the Delacour family in France. Barbara was waiting for them, welcoming them.

"Welcome to France, Jessica!" Barbara happily accepted Roger's hug, then turned back to Jessica and said, "Jessica, your son has grown up a lot."

Barbara seemed to have an obsession with men's height, and pulled Fleur over to stand.

"Well, this year is the second grade. According to this development situation, by the time she reaches the sixth grade, she will be taller than Fleur."

Rogge looked at Furong in confusion, hoping to translate something. His French was not very good.

Fu Rong explained softly: "My mother said you have grown taller."

"Ahem." Jessica patted the dust on her shoulders and said disgustedly: "Barbara, your elf is too lazy. Why is there so much dust."

"Oh, it's not like they are too busy. With a big family, Delacour still has to go to work."

"Besides, we are wizards, so we can just use a magic spell on this dust." Barbara said, leading them to visit the family manor.

The manor has beautiful gardens, ancient buildings, and a magnificent wizard's tower. This place is full of traces of French wizard culture, which makes people feel shocked.

"Last time you said that Rogge's patron saint was a crow, was it true?" Barbara turned to stare at herself, as if she had seen some treasure.

"My son is so good that he has already become a patron saint. How can he lie to you?" Jessica looked around, her voice a bit sullen.

As expected of an old French wizarding family, there are antiques and cultural heritage everywhere.

In the spacious living room, tricolor hats and various protest slogans are displayed. A huge magical painting depicting the attack on the Bastille.

Barbara couldn't help but laugh when she saw the surprise in Jessica's eyes. She put out the family's stuff just to shock Jessica.

The luxurious living room is filled with furniture from the feudal era. The gorgeous Baroque style and exquisite carvings are dazzling. One of the chairs is inlaid with gold. Barbara said that it was the favorite of the Sun King.

There is an ancient European cello placed in the corner of the living room, with a jade-transformed goblin knuckle hanging on the strings. This cello has been in the family for several generations and is said to have been crafted by an outstanding wizard artist.

"Roger, this is the study. Do you have anything you like?" Barbara introduced generously.

Roger nodded, his eyes roaming on the bookshelves. A collection of rare magic books are displayed here, including the manuscripts of the famous French magician Jacques de Molay, as well as precious documents about the history of French wizards.

To be honest, I really want it. But Aunt Barbara was just being polite and he wouldn't take her seriously.

Jessica felt a little stuffy in her heart. The sculptures in front of me, the landscape paintings on the walls, folding fans, porcelain... In comparison, my manor looked like a nouveau riche.

"I must buy ancient items when I go back!" Jessica made up her mind, how could she lose to Barbara!

She had heard before that antiquities dealers could buy real things from Muggle museums. With just a few Muggle coins, you can definitely get something as good as here.

Whether it's Western Europe, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, the Far East...as long as you want it, everything will be easy if you have the money.

Jessica murmured in her mind, they could have as many Muggle coins as they wanted.

Jessica rolled her eyes and immediately stared at the girl next to her: "Speaking of the patron saint, can Fleur summon it now?"
