Harry Potter and Shafik

Chapter 154 The Visit of the Wizard Senate
"Your hair is the wrong color, Salazar! Get the hair dye, and make it black!"

"........."

"Godric! Take the belt and tie it five times!"

"Ah-ah-oh-ah-"

"Helga! You change my blue dress robe into a man's. And pin him the Ravenclaw crest."

This morning, there was a howl like a pig being slaughtered in Hogwarts Castle.In order to keep the Wizarding Senate from taking back the property of the Ravenclaw family, the four deans carried out a "cruel and inhuman" appearance modification on Hilbert.

"There is one last step!" Rowena raised her finger, but finally put it down again.

Hilbert was speechless, "What are you doing again?"

Rowena took out a silver earring from her waist, and clipped it into Hilbert's ear with a click. The pain made him almost cry.Rowena took out the mirror.

The black-haired man in front of him had slightly yellowish skin, but was still fairer, but he was covering his ears in pain.

"How about it?"

"It's so similar. It's exactly like Rowena."

"Then, Hilbert. Your name is Feld Ravenclaw from now until the Senate ceases to take back the Ravenclaw books. The son of the Ravenclaw patriarch, Rowena Ravenclaw's half-brother."

"So what, in the end Rowena still couldn't get the family's library." Hilbert said.

"No. If the Senate recognizes you as the patriarch of the family, you can propose the transfer of honorary property in court, and voluntarily give up the position of the patriarch of the family and transfer the Ravenclaw family's books to Rowena." Salazar explained road.

"Should I just propose to the Senate to inherit the property of the Ravenclaw family?"

"No, they will test everyone according to the characteristics of each family, mostly about wisdom or something. You can definitely do it." Helga said.

"Well, anyway, I used to fight the Ministry of Magic, so what if I do it again? Let the horse come over!"

Four days later, at the gate of Hogwarts Castle.

Salazar Slytherin hired a carriage, and he and two others will serve as supporters of the Ravenclaw family and propose to the Senate that Rowena inherit the Ravenclaw family property.

【Wizard Senate】

The author's own impromptu medieval wizarding governing body.

Elected by the pure blood family, there are generally about 300 people.Five people are responsible for the affairs of ten families, and one person is responsible for the affairs of two pure-blood families.Generally, it is the inheritance of the position of patriarch, the inheritance or transfer of property.Once a pure-blood family has no successor due to various reasons (women are excluded, so they do not have the right to inherit property, but if the patriarch appoints a woman to inherit in name, the Senate must implement it.) The family property must be transferred unconditionally To the Senate!In general, responsible for family affairs, transfer of property, etc.

The ruins of the Wizarding Senate are located in today's Wiltshire, England.The central location is Stonehenge.

The carriage traveled for about two or three hours.Several people fell asleep.Medieval roads did not dare to be called roads.

It's basically a loess road, but when it rains... let's not talk about it.

"Master, your destination has arrived."

It was night when we arrived.Under the dark night sky, the church was surrounded by towering dead trees surrounded by several people, and some magical plants that had never been seen before could be vaguely seen.

Hilbert got out of the carriage and looked into his eyes.The marble-built church is quaint, but it reveals an unknown atmosphere.One can't help admiring it just by looking at it.The sound of hymns came from inside from time to time, and at this time, blind magic made Muggles mistakenly think that this was a church.But what they believe in is Druidism.

Druidism was originally founded by the Celts.The rituals and teachings of Druidism are very mysterious, and they are only taught orally according to convention.Therefore, despite the research and exploration of the past dynasties, there is still little known.Most information about them comes from ancient Greek and Roman texts.In addition, archaeologists can only occasionally find some tiny clues such as pictures and marks from the remains of forests, altars, and temples.The earliest records about the Druids in the history books are mainly found in the works of Julia Caesar and Tacitus, the greatest historian of ancient Rome.In these writings, most of them describe the barbarism and terror of Druidism!But in most cases, Druid priests are recognized as the guardians of ancient wisdom, have lofty moral cultivation, and have deep attainments in natural science and theology.Druid priests are proficient in divination, meticulous in sacrificial rituals, and also good at calendar, medicine, astronomy, and literature... At the same time, they are also synonymous with law enforcers, bards, and explorers.Both men and women can be druid priests and also enjoy a high status in society.Some historians also equate Druid priests with Indian Brahmins, Persian Magi, Egyptian Priests and Shamans.

Druidism declined in the first century AD. Around the first century AD, the Roman Empire feared that the Celts might be powerful and launched a large-scale crusade against them.Tacitus once recorded that during the battle, the Druids dressed in black, jumped in the Celtic army, roared the name of the god, and cursed the Roman Empire harshly.After Rome's victory, not only slaughtered all the Celtic soldiers, but also bloodbathed the Druids, and abandoned their priests' bodies in the sacred forest of the Druids... This battle caused the Druids to die in the next few days. They have been in decline for centuries, and their power and status are no different from ordinary wizards in the following generations... Until the 1th and 16th centuries AD, Druidism still only existed in folk songs...

In the 17th century, the British antiquarian John Oberley pointed out that the Druids in the Roman period may contain some older beliefs. According to legend, they built the famous Stonehenge! !
(The huge prehistoric group of stone pillars on the Salisbury Plain in England, like the group of stone pillars in Stonefield in Act1) is used to sacrifice the sun god!Although his statement was wrong, he finally set off a druid revival movement in the 18th century.

A group of five people walked through the dead woods silently, and there was no other sound except the hooting of owls at night and the occasional crackling of branches breaking.Under the moonlight, the surrounding tree branches and some towering rocks form strange and grotesque appearances.

Walking to the oak door, I saw two lines of characters erected on both sides of the oak door, just like the Spring Festival couplets posted during the Chinese New Year.

People who are not wise, rigorous and resolute are not allowed to join.
Those who do not strictly keep secrets are not allowed to join.

Pushing open the door, there were hundreds of people sitting inside.In the center of the semicircle sits the Dean of the Wizarding Senate: Mark Peverell.Hilbert knew very well that this guy was the current patriarch of the Peverell family. The first-generation patriarch of the Shafik family where Hilbert belonged was the youngest son of the Peverell family. Homemade Shafiq family.

Mark Peverell is considered to be another of the greatest wizards since the Peverell brothers.

(920 AD - 994 AD)
Head of the Board of Elders of the British Druid Church
great fortune teller
The longest serving Head of the Wizarding Senate ever. (29 years)
"The only son of the patriarch of the Ravenclaw family, Feld Ravenclaw, asked the Senate to recognize my humble Ravenclaw patriarch as the patriarch of the Ravenclaw family." "Field Ravenclaw" said.

"So, where did you live before, Feld Ravenclaw?"

"France, due to poor health, has been recuperating in France."

"What is your relationship with Ronald Ravenclaw?"

"A biological father-son relationship that can be learned from heaven and earth."

After some simple questions and answers, Mark couldn't find any contradictions.So the ceremony of identifying the patriarch of the Ravenclaw family was announced.

"People who belong to the Ravenclaw family are known for their knowledge and knowledge. Since you are a member of the Ravenclaw family, then you are like the vast Senate to prove your wisdom!"

1. Abandoning me or mingling with me will surely lead to death, but in you I am the source of life.

"Water," said "Field Ravenclaw"

A fat wizard in the seat next to him immediately pronounced "Correct."

2. Which came first, fire or phoenix?

"It's a cycle with no beginning."

"correct!"

3. When the weather is changing, when will the rat be afraid?
"In the world of cats and dogs, sweat becomes rain."

(A British slang term found on a website.)
4. Please ask a question, if you can stump the people present, you are a member of the Ravenclaw family.

"Chickens and rabbits in the same cage, count up, 35 heads, and count down, 94 feet. How many chickens and rabbits are there in each cage?"

"WTF?!" What's the topic at this time?
Not only the members of the Senate present were dumbfounded, but even the four people behind were also dumbfounded.What's the problem?Never heard of it.

"Small sample, master taught me. Chicken and rabbit in the same cage! I can't answer it without half my brain."

"Do you shapeshift?" Mark Peverell asked again.

"Of course." "Field" saw it. This was a conspiracy. The Wizard Senate bullied the Ravenclaw family with no heirs (male heirs).Partnered to seize the Ravenclaw family property.With my master here, don't even think about it!
Hilbert silently recalled the appearance of his Animagus, only to hear a loud eagle cry!A giant white eagle as tall as a man stood on the ground.

Mark sighed for a long time, he seemed to see that his dream of embezzling the property of the Ravenclaw family seemed to be far away from him.How many years he had prepared for this dream, but it fell short!
"Now—announcing the final judgment of the Senate," said the fat wizard, "confirmed. Field Ravenclaw is a wise man, passed the trial. Inherited the property of the Ravenclaw family. Became Ravenclaw The patriarch of the family..."

"I want to apply!" "Field" has changed back to human form.

"please say."

"I'm not in good health, cough cough... I need to recuperate abroad all year round, so I hand over the position of patriarch and the property of the Ravenclaw family to my elder sister Rowena Ravenclaw in the name of the patriarch of the Ravenclaw family. inherit."

"Yes, sure."

"Thank you for the confirmation of the Senate."

"Due to Patriarch Field's poor health, the current Patriarch's position and property will be passed on to Rowena Ravenclaw!"

The final word!The Ravenclaw family property has been well preserved again.

After the members of the Senate retreated, the four deans hugged Hilbert in a wild hug.

Salazar: "See, this is my Slytherin student. I became the headmaster and went to court."

"Let's go back," Hilbert said.
