There are 28 pure-blood families, half of which have declined. Even the Gaunt family, the direct descendant of Slytherin, has completely declined. However, among the 28 families, there are always a few families that remain prosperous, and among them is the Burst family.

Although the Busted family used to be relatively low-key in the past, Lucius would not really think that the Busted family's low-keyness meant that they were weak and could be bullied unless their brains were fucked by the house elves.

In fact, compared to the Burst family, the Malfoy family where Lucius belongs is really in crisis of decline. Their bloodline seems to be cursed. For more than a century, each generation has been a single generation, and each generation has been passed down. Not all of them are elites, which makes the Malfoy family gradually become weaker through generations of consumption.

By Lucius's generation, the Malfoy family no longer actually has such strong financial resources. It's just that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. The weak Malfoy is still rich, but when it comes to Voldemort, Lucius did something Wrong decision, half of the family property was lost with the defeat of Voldemort. Today, the Malfoy family has begun to secretly sell off the family's stored magic items to maintain the operation of the huge family.

On the other hand, the Bosid family can be regarded as prosperous in each generation, and the family is quite strict in cultivating their descendants. The heirs of the family born in this way, even if they are not very talented, can still maintain their status until the next generation appears. Heirs with good talents can continue to expand the family.

For such a family, the Malfoy family must not be offended.

In the blink of an eye, Lucius had already chosen to retreat, but he still maintained that proud look on the surface. He looked at Gavin and said, "Draco is the heir to our family. His life must It’s honor and pride. I don’t have to pursue the issue of the Burst family, but you must also cancel the consequences of pure-blood duels.”

Gavin looked at Lucius. In his opinion, although this generation of Malfoy is not an elite and has mediocre talents in many aspects, he has performed well in terms of gains and losses. If he was not an investor His vision was too bad, and he was deeply tied to Voldemort before. Even if the Malfoy family could not expand again, there should be no big problem in maintaining its status.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Gavin has no intention of confronting the Malfoy family head-on. Their family's relationship with the Ministry of Magic is deeply rooted. Although it is no longer as good as the Peak, it would be quite troublesome if he bites his own family. There was no need to push Malfoy too hard.

"It's just a fight between two children. Although it went a little too far, the essence has not changed. Mr. Malfoy is unwilling to pursue it. I owe you a favor. Thank you for Mr. Malfoy's generosity."

Gavin's words were very beautiful, and Lucius's face finally looked better.

With a slight nod, Lucius nodded with Dumbledore, said goodbye to Snape, and then turned and left the principal's office and Hogwarts.

Looking at Lucius leaving, Gavin turned to Dumbledore and said: "Dumbledore, if you have nothing to do, I will leave too. I am too old to stay up late."

"Gavin, don't you want to go see Sean and Millicent?"

Shaking his head with a smile, Gavin said: "These two little guys don't want to see me, so let them stay at school by themselves. If you want to see them, just wait until the holidays."

After getting up and leaving, Gavin walked out of the principal's office. After leaving the scope of Hogwarts, he used Apparition to disappear without a trace.

Feeling Gavin's departure, Dumbledore waved the cup away from the table, and then said to Snape: "Severus, are you all ready to defend the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Already prepared."

"The person who wants to steal the Sorcerer's Stone will not give up easily, so we still have to remain vigilant..." Having said this, Dumbledore's eyes behind his half-moon glasses looked at Snape and said, "Severe Sis, how's Harry doing lately?"

It was always difficult for Snape to disguise himself in front of Dumbledore. He looked at Dumbledore and said, "Like his father, he is a disgusting boy."

"Severus, you have to be patient with this child. He is not only James's son, but also Lily's son. I think you know this, right?"

Hearing that familiar name spoken from Dumbledore's mouth, Snape's heart surged slightly, and there was a look of pain in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Without another word, Snape turned around and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, Dumbledore said to Snape again: "Severus, that Mr. Sean Bursted seems to be very valued by you, and his relationship with Harry seems to be very good, so I hope you can guide him as far as possible."

After hearing this, Snape turned to look at Dumbledore and asked with a hint of sarcasm: "So you think this child is going astray now? Because he is a little close to the great savior, so he will be introduced into the so-called The right path?"

Dumbledore was not displeased at all by Snape's sarcasm. He remained kind and gentle, and said to Snape: "Severus, you know, I didn't mean that. I just think he is a very talented child and I hope you can teach him well, that’s all.”

Eyelids drooping slightly, Snape turned around and no longer looked at Dumbledore. He went straight to the door of the principal's office and stretched out his hand to open the door. However, Snape did not go out immediately, but stood there with his back to Looking at Dumbledore, he said: "Don't worry, I have introduced him to my Potions Club. He is a child who is very talented in Potions. I will let him embark on the bright road of Potions and will not waste it." His talent.”

After the words fell, Snape turned and left.

Dumbledore looked at Snape's leaving figure, smiled softly, took out a pile of cockroach candy from the desk drawer, stuffed it into his mouth and tasted it quietly.

The duel between Sean and Malfoy was settled.

Snape talked to Malfoy and Sean successively, and the result was that both of them pretended that the previous incident had never happened. Of course, it was only on the surface. At least every time Malfoy saw Sean, the look on his face showed The anger and the faintest hint of fear cannot be faked.

A few days later, the news that Lucius Malfoy and Gavin Bursted had visited Hogwarts spread in Slytherin. It was from that time that Sean's status in Slytherin began to decline. Rising, probably on par with Malfoy, and even vaguely surpassing Millicent, becoming the person who represents the Burst family.
