Hogwarts: The Greatest Wizard

Chapter 49 Christmas Gift

After hearing Professor McGonagall's words, Feeney shrugged and said,

"I'm the only one going back, and all the Slytherin students will go home during the Christmas holidays. It's actually more comfortable for me to stay in school."

Professor McGonagall was stunned when he heard what Feeney said. As for the situation of the Black family, anyone in the wizarding world who hasn't read the news for decades knows about it. The older generation has passed away. Among the younger generation, the eldest son Sirius He was imprisoned in Azkaban, and his second son Regulus has been missing for many years, and there is still no news. The Black family, which was originally a large number, can now be said to be in decline, with only Finny and some branches of the Black family. Still there,

Seeing Professor McGonagall's somewhat offended expression, Feeney smiled and said,

"It's okay, Professor, I've been here like this for so many years."

Hearing this, Mag sighed and said nothing more.

After the holidays started, Finny was the only one in the Slytherin common room. He no longer needed to stay in his dormitory or in the room of the Room of Requirement.

He could sit on the sofa near the fireplace and look out the window at the bottom of the Black Lake, as well as the schools of fish, mermaids, and the giant squid swimming by from time to time. Feel the nobility and elegance of the Slytherin common room.

As a college that almost all the school directors will carry with them, Slytherin’s facilities can be said to be the best in Hogwarts, far surpassing the other three colleges.

This moment of peace did not bring much comfort to Finny. The magic world would not leave him much time.

From the time he started reporting Death Eaters, to now, those pure-blood families have almost recovered. It is inevitable to take action against the Black family again in an attempt to annex the Black family's industry.

Feeney knew very well that his existence must be a thorn in the side of those who had other ideas.

In addition to him, Sirius, who was in Azkaban at this time, must also be one of those people's targets.

Only after all of Black's heirs are dead, can other families compete for the Black family's property with legitimate reasons.

Among them, the families that are very close to Black, such as Malfoy and Lestrange, will be the most profitable.

The reason why he is so urgent now is definitely not simply the rejection and targeting of the little wizards. In the final analysis, these things will indeed affect Finny's mood.

But more importantly, Feeney needs to prevent them from taking action against him in the academy. It is easy to block open and hidden arrows, and being excluded means that he is surrounded by enemies. Even if they are not enemies, they will be bystanders watching indifferently.

This is why Feeney is eager to change his situation.

Feeney just sat by the fireplace and slowly fell asleep. The deserted environment gave him an unprecedented sense of security.

The next morning, Feeney woke up on the sofa and could clearly feel the pain and fatigue in his body. After spending a night on the sofa, it was inevitable to feel like this.

However, the physical fatigue did not make Feeney feel bad. On the contrary, spending a night in such an environment made his spirit and mood better.

Feeney's Christmas presents sit under the Christmas tree in the common room.

Yes, Finny also has a Christmas gift. Even people in the magical world have to do superficial things.

As the sole heir of the Black family, of course it doesn't matter if he is the head of the family. No matter what other families want to do secretly, they will have to show their friendship publicly next year, especially some officials from the Ministry of Magic.

The Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, only took office this year. When political achievements are officially needed, and political achievements also need gold galleons as the basis,

The head of the Black family, the richest family in the magic world, is naturally the person he wants to win over.

At this time, the largest package at the foot of the Christmas tree was from Fudge. There are also gifts from many professors at Hogwarts, as well as gifts from Narcissa Malfoy,

As Feeney's cousin and the only one living freely in the direct line of the Black family, she gives Feeney a Christmas gift every year. Because of her, the Malfoy family is the only one among the many pure-blood families to give him a gift. Not a friendly letter but a gift to the family.

What Fudge gave was a brand new set of wizard chess. Perhaps in the eyes of the new Minister of Magic, even though Feeney controls all the property and industry of the Black family, he is still just a child. The gift he gave is something that most young wizards would prefer. of.

What Narcissa gave as a gift was a plush sweater. Of course, unlike the Weasley family, this piece of clothing was obviously not knitted by Narcissa herself, but bought in a clothing store.

What Professors McGonagall and Professor Flitwick gave to Finny were their notes, which recorded some tips on transfiguration and charms.

What Snape gave was a small bottle of intelligence-enhancing potion, which is a potion that can make the user think more clearly in a short time. This kind of potion is not expensive and is also available in the market.

However, the quality given by Snape was better, and he should have refined it himself.

What Professor Sprout gave was a pot of white fresh herbs. As an herb that is almost extinct in the wild and can only be cultivated artificially, it is undoubtedly very precious.

What surprised Finny the most was the gift from Dumbledore. Dumbledore gave Finny a phoenix feather.

Phoenixes are extremely rare animals in the wizarding world. The only ones that can be confirmed now are Fawkes next to Dumbledore and Spark, the mascot of the Tora Macaw team. Therefore, the value of this thing can be imagined.

As one of the wand cores commonly used by Ollivander, the phoenix feather must have magical properties. It is said that the wand with phoenix feathers can cast the most types of magic and is the most proactive, and sometimes even acts according to its own wishes.

In addition to the phoenix feather, there is also a note,

"This is Fawkes' feather. As long as you inject magic into it, Fawkes can feel its existence. Please make good use of it."

Looking at the note left by Dumbledore, Finney frowned.

He would not believe that it would only be felt if it was activated. In comparison, Finney was more inclined to believe that Dumbledore could use this feather to understand his whereabouts. At the same time, this feather might also be a tool for asking Dumbledore for help.

The mysterious man is still alive. When Finney handed the locket to Dumbledore, the two knew it very well.

And Finney, who had handed in the Horcrux and reported the Death Eaters, was obviously not someone who would join the mysterious man. Then, it was obvious that Dumbledore wanted to pull Finney into his organization against the mysterious man.
