Hogwarts, a Scholar Becomes a God

,!

“The oldest and noble Black family is one of the largest, oldest and richest pure-blood wizarding families in Britain.

The history of your family can be traced back to the Middle Ages. Such an ancient pure-blood family should have a rich collection.

And you, Sirius Black, are the only heir to this family. "

Even though he has been expelled from the family, Blake still has a look of pride on his face when he hears outsiders praising his family.

But he also knew that Clark was not saying this to please him.

The Prewett family is also one of the twenty-eight sacred families, and their family has an equally long history.

So Sirius Black instantly understood what Clark meant, "You want the Black family's wealth?"

"No! No! No!" Clark shook his head, "This is just a transaction, and what matters is reciprocity of value. Besides, does the Black family still have any wealth now? I don't want to take over the house."

Sirius' face turned red;

Clark just pretended not to see it and said to himself:

"So, I just need you to take me to No. 12 Grimmauld Place, the old home of the Black family, during the summer vacation.

Then I was allowed to take away half of the Black family's treasures, including books and alchemy tools. "

"You want these?" Sirius looked at Clark in surprise, "You can definitely want the entire collection! Half of the books and alchemy tools? This is too cheap, you can definitely want them all."

Well, Clark still underestimated the extent of Black's prodigality, and Tian didn't feel bad for betraying him. It seemed that his parents made the right choice to remove him from the Black family.

But that’s none of my business.

After catching Peter Pettigrew tomorrow, he might even have to say thank you to himself.

So for a moment, Clark felt that Sirius was more pleasing to his eyes.

"Half is enough. I always pay attention to fairness and justice in my dealings."

Blake did not comment on Clark's words and just asked: "I have agreed to your conditions. Can you hand over the mouse to me now?"

"Not yet."

Clark's words made Black furious. He slammed the table so hard that the tea in the cup spilled out.

"You want to regret it!"

"Hey, calm down!" Clark quickly comforted him, "Just handing Peter over to you is not worth the price. My deal includes a full set of services."

"I don't want to hear that. You hand Peter over to me, and I'll give you half of the treasures in the Black family's old house. The deal is that simple!" Black said irritably.

Clark looked at him playfully, "Are you sure, are you sure you don't want to clear up your grievances, are you sure you don't want to walk in the sun, are you sure you don't want to give Harry a home?"

"Harry?!"

When it came to Harry, Clark found that Blake's attitude was obviously relaxed. This was his weakness.

"Yes, Harry!

Maybe you don't know yet, because of the death of his parents, Harry is now staying with his aunt and uncle.

This family is all Muggles, and they hate and reject wizards.

So you can imagine what kind of life Harry lived in their house. "

Clark roughly revealed Harry's living conditions in the Muggle world to Black, who clenched his fists and was obviously very angry.

"As far as I know, you are Harry's godfather and his guardian. As long as you clear up your grievances, you can let Harry live with you.

I think Harry himself is very happy with this, isn't he? "

Blake was silent for a moment, let out a long breath, and finally asked helplessly: "What should I do? Or, how are you going to help me?"

Clark knew that the matter was done, and pushed the tea on the table in front of Blake again, "No hurry, let's have a cup of tea first, there is still time in the evening."

This time, Blake did not refuse. He picked up the cup and took a sip. The bitter taste spread in his mouth, followed by a little sweetness.

This also seems to mean that his future will be like this cup of tea, full of hardships and joys.

"Actually, I have always had a doubt. Why didn't you tell Dumbledore what happened between you and Peter Pettigrew and the truth about the murder of the Potters?"

Clark suddenly asked curiously.

"This kind of thing is actually easy to verify. With Legilimency and a few drops of Veritaserum, you can prove your innocence.

I think that with Principal Dumbledore’s wisdom and your status as the heir to the Black family, your chances of getting away with the crime should be very high, and you would never end up like this. "

Faced with Clark's question, Blake almost subconsciously answered:

"I didn't think too much about it at the time. James and Lily chose Peter as their secret keeper because of my suggestion. I bear the main responsibility for their deaths."

Blake had a pained expression on his face and tears flowed down his cheeks uncontrollably.

Obviously, because of this incident, he is still living in regret and has never been able to break free.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault for being smart, so when I learned that James and Lily were killed by a mysterious man, I immediately caught up with Peter.

This is the grudge between us. I want to kill him with my own hands and tear that bastard into pieces! "

Well, in the face of Black's answer, Clark could only say, "You are truly worthy of being a Gryffindor."

"Thank you for the compliment." Black didn't take it seriously, and was even a little proud. "What you said is that you want me to go with you to find Dumbledore, right?"

"Of course not," Clark shook his head, "Although I believe Principal Dumbledore, but as you said, a blood feud only makes sense if it is settled by one's own hands."

Black couldn't help but nodded, but after Clark told him about Harry, he suddenly had the desire to continue living a normal life. Now he was hesitant to let him and Peter die together.

Clark looked at the silent Black, and of course understood what he was thinking, so he continued.

"Based on your current situation, there are three difficulties before you."

“First, how do you prove to the public that you are innocent?

Spreading rumors only opens your mouth and refutes them. You, Black, have been a murderer for so many years. People have already had a fixed impression of this. Why should everyone believe you. "

"Secondly, after you were imprisoned in Azkaban, the Black family's business and industry, because no one was in charge, were completely divided among the wizarding families who survived the Great Purge.

Among them are the established twenty-eight sacred tribes, as well as some emerging forces.

If you clear your grievances and regain control of the Black family, it means that the wealth they have obtained is unfair. Are they willing to give up these benefits? "

"I don't need this wealth!" Regarding this point, Black was very decisive. "They don't need to worry about this. I have no intention of promoting the Black family. They can rest assured."

Clark nodded.

"Actually, compared to the first two points, this third point is the most difficult to solve." Clark looked at him.

"The first point is best solved. Peter is in my hands. As long as I hand him over, a Legilimency and a few drops of Veritaserum will make him say everything.

Even without these, just the sudden appearance of his dead hero can turn your case around.

Why did a hero who received the first-class Order of Merlin fake his own death and hide in anonymity for so many years? This in itself is the biggest problem. "

"The second point is easy to solve. I was originally worried that you would be reluctant to part with such a huge benefit, and I was going to persuade you. After all, it is the wealth accumulated by the Black family over the centuries.

But if you can voluntarily give up, then the forces that have taken over the Black family's property will not hinder you from clearing your grievances.

Because once they have your endorsement, the wealth they obtain will be reasonable and legal, which solves one of their ghosts. "

"On the contrary, it's the third point..."

"What happened to point three?" Blake asked.

"The third point means that if you want to clear your grievances, you have to confront the entire Ministry of Magic's bureaucratic forces."

Blake was silent, and after a while he said: "It shouldn't be so."

"Not that much?"

Clark sneered, "You should never doubt what ridiculous things the Ministry of Magic will do to cover up the mistakes they have made."

"I remember that the person responsible for arresting you was Fudge, the current Minister of Magic, right?

I will be responsible for judging you later, no! The one who threw you into Azkaban without trial was the former Director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and the current Director of the Department of International Magical Exchange and Cooperation, Barty Crouch, right?

Once your case is defined as an unjust case, the two of them will be the first to bear the brunt.

It was their negligence that caused this situation.

Not only that, the occurrence of unjust, false and wrongful convictions will also bring into question the credibility of the Ministry of Magic, especially since your identity is so special.

The sole heir of the Black family among the twenty-eight holy families was thrown into Azkaban by the Ministry of Magic. What did the other established families think?

Was the Ministry of Magic's actions intentional or unintentional? What about the members of other families who were imprisoned in Azkaban? Are they also innocent?

In addition, because of the Ministry of Magic's mistake, you were imprisoned in Azkaban for so long. Do you need compensation? How should we compensate and how much should we compensate? This is also a problem——"

"Don't say you don't need compensation!" Clark stretched out his hand to stop Black who was about to speak. "This is different from the second point. You can't give up if you want to. The compensation the Ministry of Magic gives you is for the public. watch."

"Think about this one by one, how many people will be held responsible, punished, or even removed from their posts because of your actions.

How many Ministry of Magic officials will need to work overtime to control public opinion and eliminate negative influences.

Rather than being so troublesome, the easiest way is to continue to bury the mistake and pretend that nothing has happened.

There is a saying that goes well, since the problem cannot be solved, then solve the person who caused the problem.

You know, the "Daily Prophet" said that the Ministry of Magic has instructed the Dementors to execute you on the spot with a 'Dementor's Kiss' once they find you! "

Black couldn't help but shudder. Even after spending so many years in Azkaban, hearing the "Dementor's Kiss" still frightened him.

Unlike Clark and others, as the only person to escape from Azkaban in modern times, he had witnessed with his own eyes what the "Dementor's Kiss" was like.

"You have said so much, there must be a solution, right?"

Blake's tone was a little irritable. He had never thought that he clearly wanted to do things according to the rules, but it turned out to be so troublesome. It seemed that everything was forcing him to the road of no return.

If he had ignored it and died directly with Peter, wouldn't things be so troublesome? Why should I care about other people's opinions?

Just kill Peter!

No! no! Think of Harry, you are his godfather, you can give him a home -

Various thoughts came and went in Blake's mind, but fortunately Clark's reply made him feel a lot more at ease.

"Of course, this is the value of half of your family's collection, isn't it?"

Clark joked and said.

"If you want to solve the third problem, the first point is to create a lot of momentum in public opinion. Covering up the truth requires costs.

The more people know about this matter and the wider it spreads, the greater the cost to the Ministry of Magic in trying to cover it up.

As it happens, our family owns part of the shares of the Daily Prophet, the largest news media in the British wizarding world. "

Clark showed his value as soon as he opened his mouth. Indeed, using public opinion to pressure the Ministry of Magic was a good way.

"Of course, this can only be the icing on the cake. After all, the Daily Prophet does not belong to my family, and the content published in the newspaper also needs to be reviewed at all levels.

Therefore, in addition to using the media, we also need to create momentum from the beginning and choose a suitable time to completely expose Peter Pettigrew to the public and appear in public. "

"This method...but there is a problem. Peter was able to blow up a street of Muggles, but now he can also blow up Hogwarts. Is this too dangerous?"

Blake asked a little worriedly. From this point of view, he was at least kind and had learned some lessons from the original experience.

"Don't worry, I will leave countermeasures on him." Clark said very confidently.

"Okay then," Blake asked, "when do we expose him?"

"If there's time -"

Clark paused because he suddenly discovered that the skin of "Colin Creevey" in front of him began to become paler, and his originally round cheeks began to lose weight.

It's time for Black's Polyjuice Potion.

"Your medicine has taken effect!"

Clark quickly stood up and pushed Blake to the door of the lounge, "Come on, go and change your identity first, and I will contact you later."

Before Blake could say another word, he was pushed out of the doorway.
