Witness of the Multiverse

Chapter 67 House Elves

The two walked slowly in the corridor. The expensive lamps in the corridor emitted a gentle light, and the lines on the gray-brown walls due to the erosion of the ages were fully illuminated by the light.

Every time he walked a certain distance, he could see a painting of a long-lost celebrity hanging on the wall, or a portrait of the ancestor of the Malfoy family.

The portraits of the ancestors of the Malfoy family were basically asleep. Charlotte looked at these ancient portraits, and the magic power fluctuations on them were very powerful, just like living great wizards.

"Is this the essence of the millennium inheritance?" Charlotte said to Malfoy, her voice was very soft.

These portraits are different from the death photos of ordinary people, but a powerful forbidden spell.Before a person dies, he engraves his soul fragments on a certain medium, and after his death, the soul will be pulled in the dark, relying on the medium, and at the same time retain the strength of his life.

Moreover, not everyone is qualified to use this magic, and those who can use this magic are at least great wizards.

This magic is not immortality, but a kind of torture.The essence of magic is equivalent exchange. While they retain their strength in life, they will also be punished by the law of death all the time.

That feeling is like being sent to hell.That's why they fell into a kind of hibernation-like sleep to relieve the pain.

Just like the ghosts in Hogwarts, they are also willing to integrate into Hogwarts and guard the school in their lifetime.Due to the painful torture, those ghosts had to play tricks on the students to relieve the pressure.

"That's right!" Draco looked at the portraits of the ancestors with reverence, "The ancestors gave up the rebirth after death, willingly integrated into the manor, turned into portraits, and guarded the Malfoy family!
It is because of their existence that the Malfoy family can last forever!I grew up listening to the deeds of my ancestors since I was a child, and I also hope that one day, like them, I will become a part of this manor and protect the Malfoy family! "

Looking at Draco who looked yearning, Charlotte nodded silently.

This may be the fate of members of the big family. While enjoying a high-quality, carefree life, they must also bear corresponding responsibilities, and even after death, they must contribute their own strength to the continuation of the family.

Draco led Charlotte out of the historic corridor and came to the back garden of Malfoy Manor.

It is almost like a royal garden, with mountains and water, beautiful scenery, and countless magical creatures playing in it.Not to mention four-winged birds and two-tailed cats, even unicorns and succubi can be found here.

Charlotte and Draco were visiting this picturesque place when a cleanly dressed house-elf appeared beside them.

"Little master, Mr. White! Master invites you to go back to the living room!" The house elf said to the two with his head lowered and a ninety-degree bow.

"Tell father, just say we know!" Draco waved his hand and said to the house-elf.

slap~
With a soft sound, the elf disappeared again.

"What's the elf's name?" Charlotte asked casually.

"His name is Dodo! He has served in our family for more than 1000 years, almost one of the first few generations of house elves." Draco said as he walked back.

"So it's like this... That means, he can be counted as the ancestor of the house-elves among you?" Charlotte thought of Dobby in the original book, and his eyes sparkled.

"It should be." Draco was a little uncertain, "I don't know how the house elves came to be, I have never seen them get married and have children, but I heard from my mother that every 36 years, there must be a house elf. There's a new house-elf born.

After these little elves are born, they become adults. They know everything, and they will directly join in housework. "

"Huh? No, why are there only two elves in our family?" Charlotte asked back.

"This, maybe it's because they are not the first few generations? But who knows?" Draco shrugged his shoulders, expressing that he didn't know either.

Charlotte nodded knowingly: "I see... It seems that unfortunately, the origin of the house-elves is a mystery. Even in Hogwarts, there is no record about their origin."

Charlotte recalled the memories in his mind. He had never seen any records about house elves in books, as if this kind of creature was born to serve wizards. No need to record them.

"The elf in your family, has there been any abnormalities recently? For example, a sudden change in personality or disobedience to the master's words." Charlotte pointed out.

"This... I didn't find out. Although the house elves were born with at least the power of elite wizards, they have always been very obedient. I have never seen the situation you mentioned." Draco raised his eyebrows Pick, "What? Why do you ask?"

"It's nothing. I just had a weird feeling just now, as if something was watching me, and then disappeared, so I just asked casually." Charlotte lied quickly.

"Huh? There is such a thing?" Draco was really startled by Charlotte's words.

Charlotte is a great wizard, his feeling should not be wrong, it seems that he needs to talk to his father about this matter.

Charlotte smiled inwardly, no matter whether there is Dobby the house elf in the Malfoy family or not, he can be considered as a precautionary measure, who knows what the current plot is going to be like!

The two returned to the reception hall, and Narcissa had already left here.

Charlotte sat in her seat: "How is it? Lucius, my craft is not bad, right?"

"Of course! My friend." Lucius exclaimed loudly, "These works of yours are very good! Even the senior alchemists recruited by the family cannot produce such sophisticated magic items."

Lucius leaned forward, his voice lowered a bit, "My friend, you have become... a master, right?"

Charlotte nodded with a smile, but did not speak.

"Huh~ You really surprised me." Old Malfoy looked at the boy in front of him in shock.

At only 12 years old, he has already become a great wizard, and he is also a master alchemist. He can no longer find words to describe his mood.

"It seems that I really earned it!" Lucius calmed down his mood, "There are a total of 55 alchemy accessories, including [-] defensive alchemy items, [-] offensive alchemical items, and auxiliary items. Ten alchemy items.

Although their quality is very good, they are only level 30 alchemists, so I can only give you [-] Galleons! "

The general level of alchemy items is divided into one to five levels, and the worst, and the fifth level is the highest.Of course, there are two levels of master and legend above.But that is all possible.

Even Nicolas had only owned one legendary alchemy item, the Sorcerer's Stone, throughout his life.

The peak of the alchemy products on the market is the third level. Only those senior alchemists can produce the fourth-level alchemy items, and the fifth-level alchemy items have not appeared for many years.

"Yes." Charlotte nodded in satisfaction. The price of a single item is close to [-], which has already met her psychological expectations.

Sure enough, monopoly knowledge is still the most popular!
After that, Charlotte spent a pleasant afternoon at Malfoy's house, tasted a sumptuous noble dinner, and left Malfoy Manor with a huge Gringotts check.

"Father, during the day, Charlotte suddenly mentioned the matter of the house elves to me. At that time, we...and, he also said, felt suspicious peeping eyes in the manor."

"Oh? Really?" Old Malfoy's expression was as deep as water, and he fell into deep thought, "This matter needs attention. Whether what he said is true or not, or what he is thinking, we have to investigate... ... a lot!"

"Owner!"

Following the old Malfoy's call, the house elf dressed like a butler appeared beside him.

"Go and check to see if the house elves below have any unusual actions?" Lucius ordered.

"Yes, master!" Duoduo bowed ninety degrees and disappeared again.

Of course, this investigation failed to find anything after all. The house-elves of the Malfoy family were very obedient and did not experience any abnormalities.

After that, nothing happened.

However, the following night.

A house elf working alone suddenly stopped what he was doing and teleported to a dark corner.He opened a brick crack with his pointed fingers, and took out a green notebook from it.

A red light flashed in the eyes of the elf, and he quickly shrunk the notebook and ate it into his stomach.

After that, he immediately returned to the place where he was working just now, and the whole process did not exceed ten seconds.

Everything has returned to normal.
