Ancient Warlocks at Hogwarts

The next morning, amid heated discussions among the portraits and ghosts in the hallway, everyone learned of Andre's feat in defeating the troll.

As a result, during breakfast, the entire Gryffindor students gathered around Andre and cheered.

George and Fred pestered Andre to retell the previous night's battle, and it was clear to them that fighting the troll was a great adventure.

Even Harry and Ron looked at Andre in shock - he didn't tell his roommates when he went to bed last night that he had just experienced a thrilling battle before that.

"Hey, Andre, I gotta say you're definitely the best first-year Gryffindor ever!" George shouted.

Fred continued: "Yes, no first-year student has ever been able to kill the troll, and this honor will always belong to our great Gryffindor!"

Compared to the very lively Gryffindor table, most Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students looked at Andre with curiosity and admiration.

The Slytherin snakes were far from being so polite. Some cursed in a low voice, and some even loudly rebuked Andre for being just a liar. The teachers must have defeated the troll.

Of course Andre would not argue with them, the truth would always make them realize the reality.

After the professors all entered the auditorium and sat at the guest seats, the long table of Gryffindor and Slytherin became a little quieter.

However, the daring Weasley twins actually ran to Professor Flitwick's desk and asked him loudly about last night.

Their Charms teacher always praised outstanding students: "Yes, Mr. Ivanov used a very beautiful transformation last night. He killed a mountain troll without any harm. I think Professor McGonagall It is a very wise decision to put him into the advanced class in advance. If Mr. Ivanov can perform so well in my Charms class, I think I will also consider Professor McGonagall's approach."

Now all the Slytherins who were still mumbling fell silent, and the twins walked back to the long table in their house with satisfaction.

Andre finally breathed a sigh of relief. He took a Yorkshire pudding from the long table and prepared to fill his stomach first.

The owls flew in in groups as usual, and Andre didn't even raise his head. Except for the two senior Transfiguration textbooks specially given to him by Professor McGonagall, he had never received a package from an owl. Or letters.

In this regard, he and Harry were in the same boat. The child had only received two emails - an invitation from Hagrid, and a gift from Professor McGonagall - the Nimbus 2000.

Fortunately, Hagrid bought Harry an owl, which was completely useless at the moment.

"Andre, I have your letter!" Andre, who was engrossed in eating, was pushed by Hermione next to him.

Things were so weird. Just as he was thinking about the sad social circle between himself and Harry, a letter from someone unknown came to him.

Andre frowned. He thought hard for a long time and couldn't figure out who would send him a letter.He hasn't done anything extraordinary recently. At most, he just bullied Malfoy before.

At Hogwarts, it was unlikely that anyone would deliver anthrax to him. Andre finally had the courage to take the letter from the owl.

There was a red stamp on the yellow parchment envelope. Harry stretched his head and looked at it: "This is the mark of Gringotts."

He followed Hagrid to the underground vault of Gringotts during this summer vacation, so he recognized the meaning of this stamp.

This made Andre even more confused as to when he, a poor orphan, had ever interacted with Gringotts.

Open the envelope and take out the letter paper inside.

Dear Mr. Andrei Jovanovich Ivanov:

Hello!Entrusted to your grandfather, Mr. Aubrey Adrian, we sincerely invite you to withdraw a piece of your inheritance from the underground vault of Gringotts in the hidden part of Paris during this Christmas holiday.

——Gringotts Wizarding Bank, Paris Branch.

The address of Gringotts' Paris branch was also written in detail on the back of the letter.

Andre blinked, grandfather?heritage?Gringotts Paris?

The letter was written in standard English, and it was not impossible for Andre not to recognize it, but the content on it made him completely confused.

The original owner of this body was clearly a Belarusian, and his surname was Ivanov and not Adrian. Why did a French grandfather named Aubrey Adrian suddenly appear?

No, Europe and America don't seem to distinguish between grandfather and maternal grandfather. In this case, it may be the father of the original owner's mother.

The memory that Andre received contained no information about his parents at all. The original owner basically lived with his brother after he became sensible.

It seems that this body is not of pure Muggle origin. No wonder the Sorting Hat said during the Sorting Ceremony that he had the potential to go to Slytherin. At first, he thought it was just the hat saying it casually, but he did not expect that he might actually have it. Pure blood wizard blood.

It’s just that it’s unclear why he has a French grandfather. If his mother is French, it would be too far to marry in Belarus.

Moreover, this grandfather never came to find the original owner and his brother when they were poor and involved in gangs. Instead, he waited until Andre entered Hogwarts before sending such a letter.Even if the letter is about inheritance, it is enough to make people curious.

After thinking for a long time, Andre decided to go and have a look during Christmas. A rich inheritance would allow him to free up a lot of time to study magic, instead of always thinking about how to make money to support himself.

Hermione saw the content of the letter on the side: "Aren't you a Muggle-born? How can you have an inheritance that needs to be inherited by Gringotts in Paris?"

Apparently she remembered what Andre told her on the first day of school.

"Actually, I don't know myself. I have to say that after I became sensible, I never knew that I had a wizard grandfather, and he was also French." Andre smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Before coming to England, I I've been living with my brother in Belarus and I don't even speak French."

"Didn't your parents tell you?" Hermione didn't know that Andre was actually an orphan. Only Hagrid, Harry and Ron knew this fact.

Andre said calmly: "They passed away before I could understand, and my brother also encountered misfortune last year, so I can only go to France to see if I can figure out my life experience."

Hermione was stunned for a moment: "Sorry...I mean..."

"It doesn't matter. In fact, I don't care much now." He only participated in the last half year of this painful life, so naturally he would not be sad.

"I didn't know that my parents were both wizards before I received the letter from Hogwarts. Aunt Petunia kept telling me that my parents died in a car accident." Harry, who heard the conversation between the two people, interrupted: " If Hagrid hadn't picked me up, I never would have known that I would have a fortune to inherit at Gringotts."

Their similar backgrounds made Harry feel the same way.

Several people quickly ended the conversation. Anyway, it's still early for Christmas.
