"I understand." Luna nodded, her expression still calm.
"You can go now." Erwin untied her.
Luna stood up and walked towards the door. She suddenly turned around and said, "Since we have shared secrets, can we be considered friends?"
"Of course." Melanie answered first, smiling, "Let's play together when we have time."
Luna was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "That's good. Dad doesn't have to worry about me having no friends in school."
She left.
"I feel like she is one of the few smart people among the students in this school." Melanie said after Luna's back disappeared.
"Next time you play with other girls, take her with you." Erwin said.
"You don't need to give orders, I'm preparing to develop a branch of the sisterhood in Ravenclaw."
"Sorority?" Erwin was really surprised.
"Is there anything strange? Isn't the time when students have a lot of free time the best time to socialize? This is directly related to future connections." Melanie glanced at him.
"You? Social? Are you still making connections in the future? Do you need it?" Erwin smiled.
"Isn't this all for you?" Melanie's eyes were full of resentment, "I know what you are thinking, and you may not be able to escape in this life anyway, so I might as well help you properly."
"Well, I believe it. I'm so touched. You are really a good helper to me."
"...You can act a little more perfunctory."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, there is still something to do."
Erwin looked at his classmate La Ge on the ground, gave him a stun spell, and let him continue to cool down on the floor for half an hour.
Then it was time to clean the scene. In the direction pointed by Erwin's wand, a small cyclone appeared, a pressure difference was generated, and all the silver-gray dust began to gather toward the eye of the storm.
These specially prepared powders leave no trace behind.
Condensing it into a solid ball and putting it away, this move highlights Erwin's excellent control of the kinetic energy given by his natural ability.
Melanie stood next to him, "Actually, it's not just me, you can also consider this aspect." She continued the topic just now.
"oh?"
"I remember that you gave all the lower-grade Muggle students a simple magic item before? Why did you only give it once and then there was no follow-up? Don't you have a new type of blood potion now? That will be a better link to connect others.
.”
"What she said makes sense." Riddle, who had been silent before, suddenly expressed his presence.
I still need you to teach me how to do things? Erwin thought it was a little funny.
He looked at Melanie, "Are you so concerned about my affairs?"
"You have the potential to stand on top of this world. When that day comes, people will willingly treat you as their master." There was a certain light in Melanie's eyes.
"Why, am I not your master now?" Erwin pretended to be dissatisfied.
The best way to deal with this woman is to be tit-for-tat without showing any signs of cowardice.
Melanie buried her head, and a blush appeared on her face, "If you really want to do this, then there is nothing I can do..."
"Stop!" Erwin stopped her performance in time, "You go back first, I will come back later."
Melanie glanced at him faintly, said nothing, and left obediently.
The first step of her strategy was to make Erwin not hate her, and after several months of unremitting efforts, she had basically succeeded.
After Melanie left, Erwin was still thinking about it. The counterpart to sororities is naturally fraternities. After the success of Red Dragon I-type, he should really consider making more friends, and the friends should no longer be with people of the same age.
But senior students.
It is best for students in sixth and seventh grade who face the dual pressure of the ultimate wizard exam and employment after graduation. They will need to improve their bloodline. After improving their bloodline, they will be able to enter the best university for graduates.
Where to go - Ministry of Magic.
This will naturally bring Erwin's influence with him.
Erwin happened to know a few names. They were all Muggle-born, and their families were poor, so they received sterling funding from the "Wizard Mutual Aid Foundation", and their talents were not very outstanding.
Originally, I thought I would contact them again in a year or two, but it doesn't seem too early now.
Erwin looked at his classmate Drago on the ground, he still looked that embarrassed.
We also need to clean him up. The cleaning process is very simple. Use the Clean Water Charm and the Cleaning Charm, and he will be clean including his body and clothes in no time.
It was just a bit helpless when I was dressing him, and even though Erwin used kinetic energy to give him remote control, he still felt uncomfortable.
It was a mistake to let a house elf stay, and he became a manservant to serve the young master.
Pretending that Malfoy was sleeping on the desk, Erwin cast the Four Stealth Curses on himself and sat at the other end of the table.
Half an hour later, classmate La Ge woke up leisurely. He showed an expression of confusion at first, and then annoyance.
His memory ended when Melanie brought her to this classroom. He felt that he suddenly fell asleep for no reason and lost face in front of beautiful girls.
After cursing a few words, he packed up his things and left, completely unaware that his memory had been deleted.
Erwin showed up, which was great, making sure that the cute little fool didn't know anything.
Ten minutes later, he arrived at the Hogwarts kitchen, where Dobby was waiting for him. Cookie, the head chef, had prepared a separate room to avoid other elves as much as possible.
"So, can you answer my question now? This is not only about the safety of Harry Potter, but also about the entire Hogwarts."
"Of course, sir." Dobby's answer felt more confident this time.
One of his main jobs before was to deliver messages to Lucius Malfoy, and there was no more suitable messenger than an elf who could use Apparition at will. This also led to Dobby knowing many of the family's secrets.
Even if Dobby couldn't remember everything, and even if the house elf couldn't understand many things, what he said in just a few hours really opened Erwin's eyes.
For the first time, he learned about the inside story of a magical family with a long history.
The Malfoy family's savings in Gringotts alone have reached six figures. Lucius Malfoy maintains friendly relations with more than half of the senior officials of the Ministry of Magic, and the means of maintaining this relationship is naturally to rely on political donations. The Malfoy family
He also owns shares in a Romanian fire dragon breeding farm, and also invested in a farm in South America that grows shadow lilies of the valley.
In a sense, Shadow Lily of the Valley is the most important potion for wizards. Its extract has only one effect: slowing down the blood dilution of newborns, which can greatly reduce the probability of being a squib.
Like conventional society, agriculture, represented by planting and animal husbandry, is the most basic production industry. The ancestors of the Malfoy family had the foresight to grab such a few pieces of cake that could be eaten by several generations.
