Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

"Bruce Stewart!"

Harry, Ron, and Neville all changed their faces drastically, but Hermione showed such an expression on his face.

"Hermione guessed it?" Clark looked at her.

Hermione nodded, then shook her head again, "I didn't think of him at first, but I wasn't surprised when you said his name."

"No, how do you know that Bruce is a descendant of Slytherin?" Ron asked curiously.

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Don't you care about this transfer student who suddenly came to Hogwarts?"

"Why should I care about a male student from a foreign country?" Ron was speechless.

"It's because they come from a foreign country that they need extra care." Clark smiled.

"So, compared to Hermione, you are far behind. Didn't I say last year that the business of dragon farms has been monopolized by foreign dragon families? How long has it been since Hogwarts transferred students? Why did the front foot show up?" Regarding the matter of building a dragon farm, the students of Ilvermorny turned around."

Harry and Ron's eyes widened before they rang. When they were in Hagrid's cabin, Clark seemed to have told them about the conflict of interest.

"So this guy was sent by a foreign dragon family to prevent Hogwarts from building a dragon farm?" Harry asked.

Ron also asked: "But what does this have to do with the descendants of Slytherin?"

"Mortal wisdom." Hermione complained coldly.

And Clark gave the answer, "This matter still has to start with the Gunter family."

"Is there any descendant in their family? What about the resurrection stone?" Harry immediately looked at him expectantly after hearing this.

Clark didn't answer him.

"As one of the twenty-eight pure-blood wizard families, the Gaunt family has a very long history, even dating back to the golden age.

And in this family, there are also very famous great wizards like Salazar Slytherin and Cadmus Peverell.

It's just that too much care about wizard blood has led to a very serious degree of inbreeding in this family. The custom of marrying their own brothers and sisters has made them have a capricious and advocating violence for generations, and they are famous for it.

certainly,

According to my speculation, they may be caused by the high concentration of magic in their blood, which caused their souls to become unstable.

Anyway, because of this defect in blood, lack of rationality and enthusiasm for the enjoyment of nobility and luxury, the ancient Gaunt family began to gradually decline. "

Clarke's words eloquently made Harry and the others deeply immersed in it, completely forgetting the passage of time.

"According to the internal information I obtained from the Law Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic through my personal relationship, the last known direct descendants of the Gunter family are called Marvolo Gunter, Morfin Gunter, and Merope Gunter. special.

Among them, Morfin Gunter and Merope Gunter are the children of Marvolo Gunter.

After old Gunter died of old age, his son Morfin Gunter inherited the Gunter family, but his daughter Merope Gunter was nowhere to be found.

Rumor has it that by using some sort of potion, she bewitched a Muggle named Tom Riddle and ran away from home. Since then, I haven't heard from her again, maybe she died somewhere.

As for Morfin Gaunt, he inherited the irritable character unique to the Gaunt family. He was imprisoned in Azkaban because of an attack on Muggles, and finally died there.

Since then, the Slytherin bloodline of the Gaunt family has been completely cut off. "

After Clark finished speaking, Harry and the others present were silent. They didn't doubt Clark's words. After all, the names of the characters in the whole story were very accurate and clear, rather than pronouns used.

Obviously, Clark really took the time to investigate.

"What about the descendants of Slytherin in the school?" Ron asked curiously, "And the Bruce Stewart you mentioned, is he the offspring of that Gaunt daughter and Muggles? "

"It's Merope Gaunt and Tom Riddle." Harry remembers it very clearly, "But according to what you said, it should be Bruce Riddle, why is the surname Stuart? Are their descendants A woman, and married to someone named Stuart?"

Clark shook his head.

"No, Tom Riddle returned home alone less than a few months after eloping and getting married with Merope Gunter. According to the public, he was deceived. Of course, we all know that he must be Chinese There was magic, and the magic dissipated for some reason.

As for Merope Gaunt, according to the information I found from the Muggle society, she seems to have died in a London orphanage, but I don't know which one it is. "

"So it's broken?" Ron was very dissatisfied, as if a story saw a wonderful place, and suddenly the screen went black, "Then what does this have to do with Bruce Stewart?"

"It's a side branch!" Hermione answered his question, "No wonder you often don't do your homework, Ron, you should really listen to Clark's story, he said it all,'The last few of the Gaunt family Direct descendants', since there are direct descendants, there should be collateral."

"That's right, the Gaunt family does have a known and well-known collateral branch." Clark nodded.

"Is that Bruce Stewart?" Harry asked. "Then he..."

"Their branch has been separated from the Gaunt family a long time ago." Of course, Clark guessed Harry's intention, nothing more than asking if the Resurrection Stone would be in the hands of Bruce Stewart.

A look of disappointment appeared on Harry's face.

At this time, Hermione also said in a slightly smug tone: "If you have noticed the transfer student from the beginning, you only need to check the information a little bit, and you will know that the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was run by a man named Aesop. The Witches of Searle and James Stewart's Muggles."

"James Stewart, Bruce Stewart, they are a family? This transfer student's family is the founder of the magic school, just like the descendants of Slytherin, so why does he come to Hogwarts? There must be something wrong here ’” Neville was quick to spot the blind spot.

"Yeah, it's as if the children of the Gaunt family don't come to Hogwarts, but go all the way to Ilvermorny." Hermione also nodded.

"Okay, we know that Bruce has a problem, let's go on, why did the Stewart family become a branch of the Gaunt family again?" Ron asked impatiently.

At this time, some of the little wizards of Gryffindor have also returned to the common room one after another, but when they saw Harry and the others sitting in the corner, their expressions changed drastically, and they ran back in a hurry without saying a word. the dormitory.

Clark and the others didn't pay attention to them.

"It's not the Stewart family, but another founder of Ilvermorny——Aesop Searle."

Hermione began to memorize some information she had read about the founder of Ilvermorny.

"Isolt Sayre was born in 1603 and spent her early childhood in the Comcali Valley in County Kerry, Ireland.

Her father was William Searle, a direct descendant of the famous Irish witch Morrigan. And her mother, named Alyssa Gunter, happened to be a branch of the Gunter family.

There are even rumors that Aesop Sur himself is a Parseltongue, but because Parseltongue has always been synonymous with evil wizards, this rumor is just a rumor, and wizards in the United States do not admit it.

However, the blood of a quarter of the descendants of Slytherin in her body cannot be faked.

It is said that Aesop Searle used the wand inherited from Salazar Slytherin, and now Ilvermorny also has a snake tree, which grew from this wand that was buried in the ground.

And Aesop Searle eventually married James Stewart, and they have two daughters and have been living in the United States.

As for whether this Bruce Stewart is a descendant of Aesop Searle, I don't know. "

From Cadmus Peverell, to Salazar Slytherin, to Alyssa Gaunt and Aesop Searle, and now Bruce Stewart.

The relationship between the entire Gunter family can be described as intricate and confusing.

Ron even asked: "Hermione, how did you remember such a complicated situation?"

Hermione smiled smugly, and Clark also said at this time.

"So, Harry, your Potter family is inherited from the Peverell family, and if you go back, you still have some connections with the Gaunt family.

Maybe the blood of Parseltongue has also been passed down in your family, so it's not unusual for you to be able to speak Parseltongue. "

Of course Clark knew that Harry's Parseltongue was due to the influence of Voldemort's remnant soul, but this matter involved the evil black magic of "Horcruxes", which was beyond his knowledge, so it was difficult for him to reveal it .

"No wonder he looks at me that way." Harry suddenly remembered the way Bruce Stewart looked at him at the gate of the auditorium just now. It was clearly because of Parseltongue, and he regarded him as a relative.

"So, even if a descendant of Slytherin really opened the Chamber of Secrets, the primary object of suspicion should be that Bruce Stewart."

After hearing these words, Harry breathed a sigh of relief, but for some reason, he suddenly felt a little lost.

It's as if my boyfriend (girlfriend) hates it no matter what, but once the other party has empathized with someone else, I feel uncomfortable no matter what.

"So, that Bruce Stewart is the heir of Slytherin?"

Ron looked at them, "Since he opened the Chamber of Secrets and released the monster inside to attack people, why don't we tell the professors quickly and arrest him early? The treasure in the Chamber of Secrets belongs to Hogwarts."

Hermione shook her head. "Ron, it's not that simple. The other party is just a possibility. We don't have any concrete evidence."

"Besides, he is a transfer student from a foreign country," Clark also gave another reason. "If he is really a member of the Stewart family, arresting him casually will cause international disputes. This is not a trivial matter."

"Then we're just going to watch?" Harry asked eagerly.

He desperately hoped to catch the murderer who opened the secret room as soon as possible, and the eyes of those classmates looking at him made Harry very uncomfortable.

However, Clark could only say, "Yes, we have no way to deal with him for the time being, after all, we are only students."

"But he will definitely not stop, his purpose is to obstruct the construction of the Hogwarts Dragon Farm.

Although the first two attacks were horrific, they were all aimed at cats and ghosts. They did not hurt anyone, had little impact, and were not published in the newspapers.

This kind of situation is definitely not what he wants. Only when the matter becomes so serious that the parents of the students are worried about keeping their children in the school, the project of the Hogwarts Dragon Farm may be stopped.

So we just need to wait patiently, and we will be able to catch him. "

Harry couldn't sleep for hours that night.

He looked at the bright moonlight outside the window through the gaps in the curtains around the bed, feeling at a loss in his heart.

Could he be a descendant of Salazar Slytherin?

Is Bruce Stewart really his distant relative?

He looked at me so strangely, so he doesn't have any relatives in the United States?

But he came to Hogwarts to make trouble.

If the school is really closed because of the monster, where else can he go, will Ron and his family take him in?

Not far away, Ron's bed was snoring loudly, obviously he didn't take this kind of thing to heart.

No!

I must not let this happen!

Harry turned over and made a secret decision in his mind. Here are his friends, his favorite teacher, and the Quidditch game he loves.

No one can drive him away from here, no one can!

In the next few days, Harry and Ron began to follow Bruce Stewart, and they wanted to find evidence that this guy had opened the secret room.

However, this is just doing useless work, and the end result is that nothing is discovered.

"This guy is the two points and one line between the dormitory and the classroom every day, and he can't catch any telltale signs at all." Ron and Harry sat down opposite Clark.

The morning sun shines on their faces through the ceiling, and the plate in front of them is full of grilled sausages, fried eggs and bread.

"But I made a new discovery." Ron said mysteriously with the sausage stuffed in his mouth.

The performance of Hermione and Clark before made him very jealous, but now that he has discovered some secrets that the other party does not know, he naturally has to be embarrassed.

But Clark and Hermione weren't him.

The two concentrated on the milk and oatmeal in the bowl. After they finished eating, they wiped their mouths, raised their heads, and asked Ron, who was a little impatient.

"Tell me, what discovery?"
