Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard
Chapter 254 252 Phoebus has no choice
When Mrs. Greengrass heard this, her face was filled with surprise. Her mouth opened so wide that she forgot to close it.
She even forgot to take the potion. After a moment, she came back to her senses and said,
"Ah, I'm sorry, Mr. Black, this matter needs to be decided by my husband Phoebus, please wait a moment."
Feeney waved his hand,
"It doesn't matter,"
After Feeney finished speaking, Mrs. Greengrass completely ignored the etiquette between pure-blood families and left quickly. From her actions, Feeney could see her surprise at this time.
This is what Feeney is for,
The main reason why the Greengrass family is so sparse and in its current situation is because of this blood curse.
Although I don’t know why, Daphne, the eldest daughter of the Greengrass family, does not have a blood curse, but their youngest daughter, Astoria, does have a blood curse problem, and it is very serious. Many people know about this and Wizards who try to study the blood curse believe that it is because Astoria has two blood curses.
In short, because of this unknown reason, Astoria will probably not live to be twenty. Also because her condition is so serious, the Greenglasses do not even dare to have a third child because they are afraid of the new born child. Children will also have such a serious situation, even if the Greengrass family does not even have an heir now, (the heir who inherits the surname and the family, unless Daphne and Astoria do not marry and retain the Greengrass surname, otherwise they will Not even an heir.)
Therefore, if the potion provided by Feeney is really useful, it means that not only the problem of Astoria's life has been solved, but it also means that the Greengrass family can have an heir.
After a while, Phoebus, the patriarch of the Greengrass family, walked over quickly.
Walking seemed more like running to Feeney. In short, he looked very anxious now.
When Phoebus came to the drawing room, he held Sirius's hand without being polite and asked,
"Mr. Black, is the potion you mentioned really useful? How to use it? What are the adverse consequences?"
For a moment, Sirius, Mrs. Greengrass, and Finny were all a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, Mrs. Greengrass spoke up to remind Phoebus,
"Phobos, it was Mr. Black who provided the potion..."
Hearing this, Phoebus also showed embarrassment on his face.
Feeney smiled and said,
"It's okay, Mr. Greengrass, my age often makes people do things that Sirius does, so you don't have to be embarrassed about it,"
Phoebus smiled awkwardly,
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Black. So, Mr. Black, can you answer those questions for me?"
Feeney smiled and said,
"Just call me Feeney. As for your questions, I can definitely tell you that this potion is effective. Of course, the effect may not be as obvious as you think, but it does not have any side effects."
Of course it is effective. In the final analysis, this potion is just a potion to replenish vitality. The formula was modified by Feeney based on the elixir of life, eliminating the need for magic stones and the side effects of dependence.
Since these two key side effects are lost, the effect will naturally be somewhat worse. It can replenish vitality, but it cannot make people live forever.
In other words, this medicine can indeed replenish vitality, but it cannot repair the damaged body.
The reason why the Immortal Tool can achieve the effect of immortality is that while replenishing vitality, it will use the effect of the magic stone to convert the power of the soul into another kind of power to maintain the vitality of the body. However, it seems that there is something wrong. Some problems, this kind of power to maintain life can only ensure that the body can survive, but it will continue to age.
The medicine provided by Feeney does provide vitality, but when the body reaches its limit, no matter how much vitality it provides, it will lead to death.
The reason why Feeney said it was effective was because he believed that the blood curse and the blood curse of the Greengrass family were two completely different curses, rather than the same curse recognized by the magic world.
This is also recognized by Nico,
Feeney suspected that the curse of the Greengrass family was a curse that would always absorb the host's vitality, rather than a curse that harmed the body. Of course, Feeney would need to study the curse situation in Astoria to determine the specific situation. ,
However, no matter which one, directly replenishing the vitality will make the person with the curse feel more comfortable.
So, he went on to add.
"Of course, Mr. Greengrass, you also need to understand that this potion cannot completely break the curse. It can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. After all, I am still a young wizard and cannot do this yet."
Phoebus heard Finny's answer and hurriedly said,
"As long as it can treat the symptoms and is effective, then Mr. Black, er, Feeney, can you just take this potion directly?"
Feeney nodded,
"Just take it directly. It will make the user more comfortable. At least they no longer need to rely on the flames of the Phoenix to relieve pain. However, on the contrary, Astoria still needs to take this medicine regularly. Speaking of this, I have to Please explain to Mr. Greengrass in advance that the materials used in this medicine are very precious, so the price will be very high.”
Phoebus fell into deep thought. After a moment, he asked,
"Well, Feeney, can I ask, what are the ingredients of this potion?"
This actually violates the rules of the entire magical world. Questions about potion formulas are not allowed unless the inventor voluntarily discloses them.
Asking directly is also a very impolite and contemptuous behavior.
However, at this time, Phoebus no longer cared about these details. He loved his little daughter very much, and the Greengrass family really needed the formula for this potion.
Feeney sighed and said,
"It's not that I don't tell you, or what I want to do with this potion, but the formula of this potion is actually related to the formula of Nico Flamel's elixir of life..."
When Phoebus heard this, he understood that Finny must have signed some kind of unexplainable magical contract, so he stopped asking questions and opened his mouth to talk about old times and win over each other according to normal etiquette, but found that what was supposed to be going on was He and his wife were interfering with social interests and could no longer proceed. In the end, he could only sigh and said,
"In that case, why don't we go to the restaurant first? I heard that Feeny prefers Far Eastern cuisine. I specially asked the house elf to go to that country to learn some and come back. Oh, and there is also French cuisine that Mr. Black likes."
The last sentence was said to Sirius,
Feeney smiled and nodded in agreement,
Since social etiquette cannot be carried out, just eat directly. Table culture exists in every country.
When tasting delicious food, people's alertness will be very low, and it is also very suitable for talking and cooperating with each other.
Regarding Feeney's visit, Daphne clearly expressed her dissatisfaction and disgust with her expression at the dinner table.
This is a very natural thing. After all, little girls of this age will not hide their disgust towards people they hate, especially for a child like Daphne who is spoiled by her family.
On the contrary, Astoria welcomed Feeney's arrival.
It's funny to say,
Obviously at the beginning of school, Finny's behavior made her sister Daphne very embarrassed, but in her subsequent life at Hogwarts,
As long as Astoria can dine with the Slytherin wizard, she will definitely sit next to Finny.
Of course, this does not exclude the fact that the little girl Astoria wanted to enjoy a more relaxed dining environment - for some special reasons, during the three years at Hogwarts, when Feeney was dining in the auditorium, the surroundings They were all empty, and the little snakes would rather huddle together than sit next to him.
"Father, are you telling the truth?"
Daphne's surprised voice sounded at the dinner table,
Just before, Phoebus told in an understatement while dining that Finney had provided a potion that could alleviate the blood curse.
Then Daphne behaved in such a completely unladylike manner.
Before Phoebus could answer, Daphne glared at Finny.
"Tell me, is this true? If I knew you were trying to deceive us..."
Before she finished speaking, many people at the table had changed their expressions.
Phoebus, little Azure Star's expression was very gloomy,
Astoria was a little worried;
Mrs. Greengrass looked at Daphne reproachfully, but Feeney didn't care at all and said with a smile,
"Let's not talk about whether it is necessary or not. Even if I lie to you, what can you do, the eldest lady of the Greengard family?"
Finny's tone and attitude were exactly the same as when he laughed at Daphne's stupidity on the train at the beginning of school.
This made Daphne very angry, but she couldn't do anything, because although she was reckless, she was not stupid. She knew the gap between the Greengrass family and the Black family very well.
The reason why I threatened Feeney just now was just because of her eldest lady's temper and habits.
Seeing this, Phoebus hurriedly eased the relationship between the two parties and said,
"Phini, please don't worry, our little girl has not been educated well by us..."
Feeney waved his hand, smiled at Phoebus and said,
"Don't be sorry, Mr. Greengrass, because I don't care about her attitude and habits, but it's you, sir, who need to pay attention."
Although Feeney said it with a smile, his tone did not make people feel relaxed. Instead, a chill surged up from the soles of his feet.
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Greengrass still doesn't know about what happened on the Hogwarts Express at the beginning of this semester, right?"
Speaking of this, Feeney told the story of Daphne being instigated by Pansy Parkinson to frame Malfoy in a very playful tone.
The more Phoebus heard about this, the darker and uglier his face became, which made Daphne beside him become more and more timid, and even started to tremble unconsciously in the end.
"Daphne Greengrass!"
Phoebus looked at Daphne angrily and called her by her first and last name, which made Daphne, who was already a little scared, even more frightened.
She originally understood the meaning of what she did when Feeney woke her up on the train. The reason why she never told Phoebus was because she understood the seriousness of the matter and the punishment she would receive. That's why I kept it secret. Anyway, my father and mother didn't have the habit of reading newspapers or communicating with other pure-blood families. In other words, the Greengrass family's daily state was that they were at home. Unless necessary, they would not take the initiative to socialize.
That's why she was so repulsive when she found out that Feeney was coming to visit, but in the end she let Feeney tell Phoebus about it.
Finny smiled when Phoebus was angry and said,
"Mr. Greengrass, after all, that matter has been properly handled, and it has not had a great impact on the Greengrass family. The reason why I tell you this is just to let you know and pay more attention to it in the future. "
Phoebus took a deep look at Feeney. He knew very well that Feeney told him this matter and once again pointed out that the matter had been properly handled to remind himself that the Greengrass family owed The Black family has a huge favor, and taking into account the potion, then this is not one favor, but probably two favors, or even a more serious situation.
In short, the Greengrass family may no longer be able to remain neutral as before at the Presbyterian Church's Oath Family Meeting.
It's okay to say that Black's Party B has the upper hand. It's nothing like the icing on the cake, but it's just not enough to repay the favor.
The trouble is that when Black's side is at a disadvantage, due to favors, the Greengrass family will inevitably come forward to speak for Black. Only by providing help in times of crisis can these favors be repaid.
However, in that case, if the Greengrass family opens their mouth, it means that they are bound to the Black side, and the Rich side will definitely be hostile to them.
The Greengrass family, which originally had the blessing of the Presbyterian Church and could live a peaceful life in neutrality without helping each other, can no longer maintain a neutral position that is most powerful for itself and can best maintain its own safety.
Thinking of this, Phoebus couldn't help but glared at Daphne, and then sighed. He regretted it very much now. Maybe he and his wife really doted on their daughter too much.
She was obviously born to him, so how could Leah be so well-behaved and sensible?
Phoebus kept sighing in his heart,
On the surface, he still needed to smile at Feeney, and then said,
"Having said this, I would also like to thank you very much, Feeney. Without you, the Greengrass family might not exist now. In the future, if the Black family needs anything, just ask them directly. Our Greengrass family does It’s very weak, but it can still play some role in the Presbyterian Church.”
I checked the encyclopedia and all the information I could find, but I couldn't find the names of Daphne Greengrass and Astoria Greengrass's father and mother, or even the only two people in this family,
Simply follow the naming method of Daphne and Astoria, taking the name of the sun god Apollo in Greek mythology, and Phoebus as their father's name.
Phoebus is an original character and will have a certain appearance rate in the future. Although it is not as important as Dumbledore and Harry, it can still be regarded as a character.
