Hogwarts: From Silent to Dark Lord

Chapter 226: Descendants of the Gaunt family!!

The library at Hogwarts is large, with thousands of shelves, and the books on the shelves are even more vast.

The forbidden section of the library is not allowed to enter the little wizards, and the books inside are not allowed to be borrowed by the little wizards, unless there is an IOU from the professor.

Usually, Mrs. Pince, the librarian, keeps a close eye on the forbidden book area, and she will kick out every little wizard who tries to break into the forbidden area.

But today, Mrs. Pins wasn’t there, and she was going to a Halloween dinner.

Toby, Jamie and Hermione came to the deepest part of the forbidden book area, there was only one bookshelf here, and the shelves were all forbidden books, and they were all locked, but if you want to open them, it is actually not very difficult.

“Let’s look separately, maybe there is some mechanism here.”

Toby said.

“Look separately? Didn’t Sir Nick tell you exactly where you are? ”

Jamie asked.

“Maybe Sir Nick doesn’t know, he only told me that he was in the innermost part of the forbidden section of the library, but where it is, he didn’t say, it seems that we can only find it ourselves.”

Toby said a little helplessly, but Sir Nick can’t be blamed, he is just a ghost, he can’t touch the real thing.

“Okay.”

Jamie said.

Toby and Jamie began to search, they tapped on the bookshelf, touched and touched, if there is a dark compartment here, then there must be some mechanism that can open the dark compartment.

In addition to searching on the bookshelf, the two even groped on the walls and floor tiles, knocking, beating, and pressing from time to time, but still did not find any mechanism.

“Haven’t found it yet?”

Hermione asked, and she also walked over to the bookshelf to help start looking for it, she fumbled at the bottom of the shelf.

“Boom!”

At this time, I don’t know who touched something, and a floor tile in front of the bookshelf suddenly dented, revealing a dark compartment.

“Toby, Jamie, here!”

Hermione greeted, the sound just now had startled her, but there was really a dark compartment here.

“It’s really a dark compartment.”

Toby and Jamie walked over, crouching down, the light from their wands allowing them to clearly see a black box placed by Dark Grid.

“It’s a black box, I don’t know what’s in it?”

Hermione was a little curious, and as soon as she tried to touch the black box with her hand, she was stopped by Toby.

“There is a strong black magic prohibition on this, don’t touch it directly with your hands, otherwise it will be easily cursed.”

Toby said.

Hermione was startled, as if she had been stung by a scorpion, and hurriedly stretched her hand back, her face still a little frightened.

“Let me come.”

Toby directly waved his wand and floated the black box.

“Let’s go, let’s leave the library first and go to the Demand Room on the eighth floor, which is safer and won’t be discovered.”

Toby said that he was the first to walk towards the outside of the library, and as for the black box, it was still held by him with magic.

“Wait, there’s a room for requests? What is that place? ”

Hermione followed up and asked, of course her voice was soft, after all they were doing it now

It is a violation of school rules, once the professors know about it, not only will they be deducted points, but they may also be locked up.

“It’s a strange place, you know it when you go there, but don’t tell anyone else, it’s my secret house with Jamie.”

Toby said.

The three of them went all the way up, one floor, two floors, three floors…, and finally came to the eighth floor of the castle, and they walked in the corridor on the eighth floor until they came to the opposite side of a tapestry where a troll stick beat stupid Barnabas.

“It’s just a wall.”

Hermione couldn’t help but say when she saw Toby standing in front of a wall, and Jamie was still walking back and forth in front of the wall, but before she finished speaking, a door appeared on the wall.

“How is this possible!”

Hermione exclaimed, unable to believe her eyes, when a door suddenly appeared on that wall.

“It’s not impossible, Hogwarts is a magical castle, let’s go, let’s go first.”

Jamie said, entering the door first, Toby entering second.

Hermione had many questions, but seeing that Toby and Jamie had already walked through the door, she followed suit.

After entering the door, Hermione found herself in a room with some props for practicing spells, and she looked around the room.

As for Toby and Jamie, ignoring Hermione, they came to a table and placed the black box on the table.

“Divine Purification!”

Toby waved his wand, and a shining light shot out of the wand, shrouding the black box.

Soon, the black box began to constantly emit some black fog, these are the curses of black magic, once stained, who knows what terrible consequences will happen, you must know that some curses are very terrible.

Toby uses his wand to continuously transmit mana, and his light attribute magic is the best nemesis of the dark arts.

Finally, when the wooden box no longer emitted black fog, Toby stopped, and Jamie on the side had already put on dragon skin gloves and reached out to open the wooden box.

Toby and Hermione both gathered around, and there was nothing else in the wooden box except a roll of parchment.

“Only a roll of parchment?”

Hermione was a little surprised, she thought there was some treasure or something inside, otherwise why would she hide it so well.

“Open it and take a look.”

Toby said that although he was a little disappointed that there was only a roll of parchment, since it was hidden by some wizard, maybe there was something recorded on the parchment.

Jamie opened the parchment, and it was wrapped in a smaller piece of kraft, which he set aside.

“This one is… Pipe map of Hogwarts castle? ”

Jamie said that there were many lines that were clear on this parchment, including a diagram of the internal structure of Hogwarts Castle, and a diagram of the pipeline route.

“Covinos Gaunt, who is this man?”

Hermione saw the end of the parchment, signed by a man named Corvinos Gaunt, a little curious.

“He should be from the Gaunt family, the Gaunt family is a pure-blood family, they worship pure-blood almost to the point of madness, in order to maintain the purity of blood, they will marry close relatives.”

“The Gaunt family is a descendant of Slytherin, and the mysterious man is a member of the Gaunt family, but the Gaunt family has long since fallen.”

Toby explained.

“Oh my God, close relatives get married! Aren’t they afraid of something going wrong? ”

Hermione covered her mouth, very surprised, knowing that the heirs born of consanguineous marriage are 2.6 very prone to problems, and in modern societies, consanguineous marriage is not allowed.

“So the people of the Gaunt family have problems in their brains, just because of the marriage of close relatives.”

Toby shook his head and said.

“However, why is the Gaunt family descended from Slytherin, and if it is a Slytherin descendant, isn’t it because of the surname Slytherin?”

Hermione asked.

“It is said that Slytherin only had one daughter, married someone from the Gaunt family, and then changed her surname, Hermione, if you marry someone in the future, your Granger’s surname will also be changed.”

Jamie said with a smile.

“Marry! Jamie, what are you talking about? ”

Hermione’s face turned red with shame and she yelled at Jamie, she was only 12 years old, although the legal age of marriage in Eagle Country was 16.

“Isn’t it normal to marry, Hermione, you plan not to marry for life in the future, although it is nothing to say that wizards are single.”
