The latest chapter in the Harry Potter Bastard novel

Early the next morning, Solim and Elrond were ready to leave for Little Hangleton with a pile of things sent by Gilves.

Deli also deliberately got up early in the morning, ready to interrupt Elrond when he was ready to use the portkey, so that they would either continue to wait in the manor for the cooldown of the portkey, or go out of the manor and use the phantom to transshape. He thought well, but what he didn’t expect was that Elrond and Solim didn’t use the portkey at all, but left the manor directly.

“Aren’t they going to go straight back to Selwyn Castle?” Deli wondered from a hidden corner, “In this way, the plans are all disrupted, let’s inform the Ritchie family first.” It seems that they can’t be caught this time. ”

Although Deli wants to get rid of Elrond and Solim, he will not let people ambush outside the manor, because this will definitely not hide from Gilves.

The trouble Elrond had expected did not appear, and no one tried to inquire about the secret of the potion. When he arrived at Little Hangleton, Solim voiced the doubts in his heart.

“Fool, that’s just in case, no of course it’s best,” Elrond said impatiently, “and I’m sure you didn’t notice Gilvis’s nephew’s little movements.” ”

Solim looked confused, indeed, he knew that the two men had bad intentions, and he could guess that they wanted to prevent Flegg from becoming a wizard – because once Flegg became a wizard, the Ovis family master had nothing to do with Delley. Even for this matter, some “accidents” may be created, which Solim can figure out. But what does that kid named Flegg have to do with himself if he dies? This is something that Gilves should worry about.

“Usually you look quite smart, but once it comes to the critical moment, why are you stupid?” Elrond was dissatisfied. “When we left just now, that kid was staring at us, probably to report to the Richie family, ready to ambush us, of course, mainly you.”

Solim killed the heirs of the people, and it is strange that the people do not retaliate. Usually hiding in Hogwarts, they really have no chance in Dumbledore’s territory, but this time Solim is neither at Hogwarts nor hiding in Selwyn Castle, such a good opportunity, of course, they will not let go.

Hearing this, Solim was still a little nervous. After all, no matter how talented he is, he can’t deal with adult wizards at the age of eleven, and since Elrond and himself definitely can’t hide from others, they will definitely take Elrond’s factors into account, so that as long as they are caught, the two of them are basically finished.

“So what to do?” Solim is a little anxious, don’t see that he has killed people through black glove dueling, and he has also experienced sneak attacks and ambushes by others in Sgulle. But how can those childlike tricks compare to the battles between adult wizards. Don’t see that Solim is quite talented, and he can have a lot of spells. But if you really want to fight an adult wizard, it would be good that he could play four or five rounds, and this is still talking about ordinary adult wizards, is the Rich family an ordinary family? No, then the wizards they sent may be worse than ordinary wizards?

“Look at you sluggishness! Don’t worry, they won’t catch us. Elrond didn’t care. I don’t know if I don’t have a heart or lungs or I have a good heart.

Unlike the renovated main road, the dirt road is still winding, potholed and covered with rubble, and the hedges on both sides have become taller and denser. They grow without rules, filling everything around them, even covering the original path, nearly a hundred years have passed, but there is still not much change here, and time seems to stand still in this place. After crossing the thick ancient trees, Solim saw the old residence of the Gaunt family.

The Gaunt house was easy to find—the most dilapidated one. It’s not just broken, it’s about to collapse.

Now, it would be more appropriate to call the house a ruin. The mossy walls remained, tenaciously supporting the main body of the old house, covered with plants, the tiles on the roof were all peeled off, the exposed rafters began to rot, and the doors and windows disappeared, leaving dark holes. The sound of insects crawling over was sounding from inside the house, and dense nettles had taken over the place.

“It’s nice here, away from Muggles, the banishment curse is saved.” Elrond looked around. There was no trace of magic around.

Solim honestly followed Elrond into the Gaunt family’s old mansion. Solim noticed that there were many holes in the door frame pierced with daggers, presumably made by Morfin when he was a child.

Mofin Gaunt – He, like the rest of Gaunt, inherited the special talent of Parseltongue from his Slytherin bloodline. He likes to play with snakes, but he doesn’t care about them, and often nails these snakes to the door frame with daggers to intimidate others when he gets tired of playing.

Elrond in Gaunt’s old mansion showed a side that Solim had never seen before: the wand he held in his right hand was shining brightly, illuminating the dim room. At the same time, Solim saw his expression – extremely serious.

“Over there,” Elrond gestured to Solim, “the only thing in the room is traces of magic there.” ”

Solim didn’t feel anything anyway. All he could smell was the smell of damp wood mold and the smell of something rotten.

It was a shabby wooden cabinet that had been covered in a thick layer of dirt that made it unclear to its original color. Elrond pointed his wand at one of the drawers, and it slowly slid out and made a shrill sound, after all, it had not been opened in nearly half a century.

There was a ring lying quietly in the drawer, and when they saw it, Solim and Elrond knew that they had found the true owner.

The Gaunt family’s resurrection stone ring is very famous. In Marvolo’s time, and even earlier, the ring was the only source of income for the Gaunt family.

The Resurrection Stone can summon the consciousness or soul of a dead person, as long as you know how to use it correctly. Sometimes when some wizards need to summon a dead man, they come to the Gaunt family to rent it. This is also why Marvolo’s family is so poor and has not been starved to death.

Elrond was now looking intently at the ring, and then he raised his wand and pointed at it, chanting some spells that Solim couldn’t understand, and then Solim saw a large black mist wafting from the ring, and formed the shape of a human face, opening his mouth and letting out a silent roar.

Satisfied with it, Elrond took out a box, conjured a stick with Transfiguration, and picked the ring in.

“You’re done! Let’s hurry back, I can’t wait! Elrond said excitedly.

“It’s that simple?” Solim couldn’t believe it. Is this what you get?

“Of course not! There is a death curse attached to it, both for the body and soul, and I dare say that if a great wizard takes it, even if it is not finished on the spot, it will not be a few days to live. But lifting this curse is also very simple. ”

“Find someone to bring it?”

Elrond glanced at Solim, “Yes, just find someone to bring it, this curse is useless, disposable.” Riddle’s enchantment level is still a little, but that’s it. ”

After speaking, Elrond raised his wand and waved it vigorously. Solim felt the room shake a little.

“Okay, I’ve cleared our traces, let’s go back quickly.” After speaking, Elrond shook his sleeve and shook out a gray key, the key was tied to the chain, and the other end was tied to Elrond’s wrist.

“Hold on to me!”

Solim and Elrond were not attacked or ambushed, and they returned safely to Selwyn Castle through the portkey. As soon as he returned, Elrond didn’t say a word to Solim, and hurriedly ran to the basement with the box, his legs and feet sharper than the young man Solim.

When Solim arrived outside Elrond’s door, he saw his sister Silna peeking out at the door of her room.

“What’s wrong with Grandpa?” Silna asked puzzled, “I just shouted and ran in.” ”

“Uh…” Solim certainly wouldn’t tell his sister about the Resurrection Stone, “It’s crazy~ I’ll go in and take a look, don’t come in, it’s like a kennel.” ”

Elrond didn’t even notice Solim coming in. He was holding his wand and pointing at the Resurrection Stone and muttering something, from time to time writing something on the parchment on the side. Solim sat down quietly on the side, he would not be bored to disturb Elrond, who had entered the research state. Solim came mainly for fear that Elrond would take it with him under the temptation of the ring, and Solim did not know why Elrond did not lift the curse above before researching it. However, Solim would not be stupid enough to disturb Elrond, who was on the rise, he just had to watch here, in case his grandfather had a tendency to wear a ring, he might interrupt him.

I don’t know how long I sat there, until Silna came in with her plate, Solim knew it was time to eat. In this way, the two brothers and sisters ate quietly while watching their grandfather muttering in front of the workbench. It wasn’t until a while after eating that Elrond woke up under the protest of his stomach.

“Have you all eaten?” Elrond found that his two grandchildren had already eaten, and said dissatisfiedly: “Why don’t you call me?” ”

Solim and Silna looked at each other, and Silna said: This kind of scolding work is better for my brother.

“You were so engaged, we didn’t call you.” Solim knew that he had to quickly change the subject, otherwise he would be scolded, “How is it?” Did you find anything? ”

Sure enough, when it came to this, Elrond didn’t pay attention to the meal, and danced about what he found, even forgetting to let Silna avoid it.

However, Solim did not remind him that Solim thought that Silna as his sister, these things would have to be known sooner or later, and Silna was not a child who could talk much, and it didn’t matter if she knew anything.
