duel day at hogwarts

Chapter 14 At the Banquet

Samuel is a dark-skinned male prefect. He is tall, handsome, and looks to be of mixed black and white blood. He comes from a medium-sized pure-blood family, and nearly half of the twenty-eight pure-blood families have declined.

At the moment, the family he belongs to can definitely be regarded as an upstart among pure-bloods. In addition, his popularity and ability are quite good, so becoming a prefect is a natural progression.

The female prefect is named Irina, and she comes from a small pure-blood family. The family's blessings are not great, but her personal abilities are quite outstanding, and she is considered unique even among the female wizards in Slytherin.

Especially in terms of magic, Irina had already joined the magic club when she was in second grade. When selecting prefects, someone from the same grade challenged her. As a result, Irina won three times in a row, which completely established her foundation.

own position as a superior.

Samuel and Irina may have their own advantages in terms of family and personal abilities, but on the other hand, they also have a lot of blessings. Therefore, they can be regarded as examples of having the best of both worlds. On the other hand, they become successful simply relying on their family

The most famous example of a prefect is Malfoy in fifth grade.

As for those who became prefects purely based on their personal abilities, the most famous one was the former noseless monster.

In short, in the eyes of Slytherin, the two most important points are: family. These two words represent a lot, including wealth, power, network, etc., and the second is ability.

These two words are simple, that is, you are good enough. As long as you are good enough, you will be respected and sought after by others in Slytherin!

This is what Irina meant when she asked Samuel.

The relationship between pure-blood wizards must be established from childhood, and only when they are at Hogwarts, the relationship network will be stable after leaving Hogwarts, just like those fraternities in the ordinary world.

Like sororities, this level of alumni relations in the Western world can often solve many things in the future, and the same is true for wizarding societies.

Therefore, when many pure-blood wizards are at Hogwarts, they will begin to invest in the young wizards who have just entered school, either to help them or to work alongside them, which will benefit them greatly in their future lives.

At this time, Irina and Samuel could not see the personal potential of the new students, so they focused on the family. Obviously Draco and Millicent were born in the Malfoy family and the Burst family.

The new life fell into their eyes.

"The guy who beat Malfoy, Sean Burst, is also from the Burst family, right?"

Between Samuel and Irina, Irina's opinion vaguely dominates. This was also a decision they made after a secret competition after they were elected as fifth-grade prefects.

Therefore, after Samuel heard what Irina said, he immediately said: "Before school started, the affairs of the Bosted family were also circulated as gossip for a while. You don't like gossip, so you may not know.

The old Mr. Bosted of the Bosted family has three children. The eldest daughter and the youngest son are both normal heirs. Only the middle son is a squib. According to the rules of the Bosted family, the offspring of the squib can keep their surnames, but when they reach adulthood,

After that, he will be expelled from the family and live on his own.

As a result, news came out more than a month before the start of the school year that the second son of the Squib of the Bosted family married a Squib woman and gave birth to a child who went berserk with magic and became a wizard. According to the rules of the Bosted family, this child will be killed by the family.

By being accepted as a member of the Bosted family, the child's parents can also return to the Bosted family."

"If it's just like this, this is just an ordinary change, and it's not a gossip. Is there anything else going on later?"

Nodding to Irina, Samuel took a sip of pumpkin juice and continued: "Yes, it is said that old Mr. Bosted liked this Sean Bosted very much, and for this reason he even gave a piece of clothing that was supposed to be given to Miri.

Sen's magic items were given to him, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Millicent and his father, but old Mr. Bosted suppressed their dissatisfaction and seemed to really like Sean as his grandson."

Irina put down the fork in her hand, thought for a moment, and whispered: "I think this Sean Bursted is a bit pitiful. Judging from his previous appearance, he was impulsive and reckless, and his behavior was rough. He seemed to be a careless person.

Yes, if he really believes that old Mr. Bosted really prefers him, it will be a disaster."

Samuel raised his eyebrows slightly and asked in a low voice: "How do you say it?"

"The son of a squib who was originally expelled from the family, a grandson he has never seen since he was a child. If old Mr. Bosted really likes him, how could he not have seen him since he was a child? Only when he awakened his magic talent did he suddenly appear, and then

I gave him the magic item that my other grandson wanted most. The plan behind this...

Hey, Samuel, your Phillips family isn’t considered a small family anymore, so you wouldn’t be confused about this kind of thing, right?”

After being stunned for a moment, Samuel glanced at Millicent, who was eating not far away, and then at Sean, who was sitting at the far end with quite standard etiquette. He suddenly understood something and nodded slightly.

, said: "If this is really the case, then this Sean Burst is really a bit pitiful."

Shaking her head, Irina sighed, said no more, and changed the topic. For them, Sean's matter was just a temporary topic, and there was no need for in-depth conversation. After all, in their opinion, Sean had no

It is necessary to invest. Instead of investing in Sean, it is better to invest in Millicent, the future heir of the prosperous Burst family. Although Millicon has his father before him, you don't have to worry about investing early, right?

Sean can feel that many people are looking at him, but he doesn't care about it very much. At this stage, Sean's main goal is to stay as low-key as possible and make himself stronger in a short time.

Sean doesn't value things like making friends.

Just when Sean had eaten a piece of steak and wanted to eat another piece of chicken, he suddenly saw Harry sitting opposite him on the Gryffindor table. He looked at Harry who waved gently to him, and looked at him.

With a look of regret and confusion on his face, Sean smiled softly at him, nodded slightly, and prepared to continue lowering his head to eat the chicken on the plate.

But at this moment, a little wizard sat opposite Sean with a plate, smiled and said to Sean: "I just saw you greeting Harry Potter. Are you also a fan of his?"

When Sean heard this, he looked at the other person and said in reply: "I really didn't expect that at this time, someone would take the initiative to sit across from me."
