The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Seeming to see Link's shock, Mrs. Foley pursed her lips and said:

"Don't worry about Link, although the rank of the Order of Merlin is very high, the Order of Merlin is actually graded internally. Just like the top-level Order of the Order of Merlin, this thing is usually only given to the dead, of course. , except for monsters like Dumbledore. And the Second Order Merlin is the top honor in the normal world, how do you say it? Do you know the Muggle Nobel Prize? This thing is just like the Second Order of Merlin. one level.

As for the third-class medal, hehe, it's different. Its gold content is actually not that high. "

Mrs. Foley paused abruptly when she said this, and then continued after looking at Snape:

"As long as your Professor Snape is willing to say that the potion formula he invented but has not yet published was invented by you. Then I will do some work in the dark, and you will be awarded the Merlin Third Class Medal. It is almost a certainty."

"Unfortunately, some people's consciences seem to be eaten by dogs!"

Facing Mrs. Foley's cynicism, Snape just snorted.

"Snape, don't you think I came to you as a last resort? Don't be too sentimental! You don't want to sell this unannounced new potion formula. There are many in the Potions Association who want to sell it. The reason for looking for you is just to give you a chance to repay your favor. Since you don’t appreciate it, then you will live in guilt forever!”

Mrs. Foley said coldly, and after she said that, she pulled Link out of the Victoria mansion, leaving Snape to stand silently, not knowing what she was thinking.

On the other side, Link and Mrs. Foley did not choose to return to Foley Castle immediately after leaving the mansion. Mrs. Foley looked a little sentimental and took Link to hang out in the garden outside.

Seeing this, Link didn't say much, just squeezed Mrs. Foley's hand a little to comfort.

To be honest, although the garden outside the Victoria Mansion is a garden, it is actually a large tract of farmland, and there are many vegetables and crops in it, which makes people feel like they are in a rural farm.

This kind of environment is very inappropriate for the old Victoria.

Because old Victoria was a pure-blooded noble with a fortune no matter what, working on farmland near the mansion would not bring him any benefits, but would lower his grade.

Thinking so, Link silently shook his head.

He didn't quite understand old Victoria's brain circuits.

At this moment, Mrs. Foley gently touched Link's head and said:

"Link, don't blame your Uncle Victoria, and don't call him a stingy with those kids, he's actually a good guy."

"I see."

Link replied softly.

He had no intention of resenting Old Victoria. After all, if he wanted to, even if Old Victoria opposed Emily's character, she would come and make a private deal with Link for the rest of her life.

So what the old Victoria did and thought did not change anything, at best it only made the final scene look ugly.

And Mrs. Foley saw that Link's expression did not change much, and thought that Link was just perfunctory.

She sighed, pointed to a few squibs still working in the farmland in the distance, and said:

"Link, do you know how many Squibs are in your Uncle Victoria's mansion?"

Mrs. Foley's topic was too jumpy, which made Link a little confused for a while.

However, after reacting, he still estimated according to his own knowledge, and replied:

"About 50 or so."

"No, the real number is more than 500."

"500!? Is he crazy?"

"Yeah, we all thought he was crazy.

After all, although these Squibs are from wizarding families, they can't do magic. From the perspective of absolutely rational capital, they are simply a bunch of useless garbage. Mrs. Foley looked at the farmland in the distance, and said with some emotion, "But ah Link, the Squib is really pitiful. Most of them have no way to integrate into the wizarding society, nor can they live in the Muggle society, they can only survive in the gap between the two. This world is too difficult for them. "

"So Uncle Victoria saw that they were pitiful and only raised more than five hundred." Link tilted his head and said, "And he didn't just raise these people, but gave them a self-reliant like ordinary people. Chance?"

"Yeah, that's why I said your Uncle Victoria is a good person." Mrs. Foley smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "Unfortunately, it's not understandable to be a good person these days. Others will only call you stupid and excessive. will bully you."

"I understand him now. He's a man to respect."

Link said solemnly.

It has to be said that he began to have a little respect for old Victoria.

Although Link himself would never do this kind of charity, it did not prevent him from showing respect for someone like old Victoria who dared to stand up for the disadvantaged.

After all, the world needs more heroes.

And the so-called hero does not only refer to Dumbledore, the person who turned the tide and helped the building fall. An unknown person like old Victoria is also a great hero.

Mrs. Foley's smile became even brighter when she heard Link's words.

She slowly squatted down to tidy up the somewhat messy neckline for Link, and said with a smile after restoring it to a meticulous look:

"That's right, Link, you must maintain this kind of integrity."

"You have improved a lot this year. Although your mother is not by your side, your performance is in the eyes of Dumbledore and Snape. According to them, the talent you have shown is enough for you in the future. Become a great wizard. But what they don't know is that I want you to keep the goodness in your heart more than to be famous."

"You know Link? I'm scared. Because I feel the kindness in your heart is slowly being swallowed up by indifference. It's a wonderful feeling, but I'm sure it's true."

"Promise me, Link. You must keep the kindness in your heart. This is your most valuable asset and the key to your survival in this world. So even for me, you must hold on to your spirit!"

Mrs. Foley was serious, especially the last paragraph.

And Link, who heard the words standing in front of Mrs. Foley, also said solemnly:

"I will, Mom, I swear."

"Good boy."

Mrs. Foley hugged Link with a look of relief, but at this time, the expression on Link's face became more solemn.

As for Mrs. Foley's words, Link initially thought it was just that she was not used to the big change in personality caused by the original owner being crossed by Link.

But Mrs. Foley's last words alarmed Link.

What is 'kindness is the key to your existence in this world'?

Could it be that if Link lost his kindness, he would die violently?

Thinking like this, Link twisted his wrist a few times, and the two wands hidden in the wand sleeve also made an inaudible collision sound at the right time.
