"Master, the Weymouth camp has been breached. The wizard team that resisted the Alliance has suffered a lot of losses and has retreated to the Granger camp. In addition...according to the report below, Percy Weasley was killed in action."
"died?"
"Yes... This is the news sent by one of the leaders of the group of family wizards sent by the family leader before. There should be no mistake."
"Well, Percy Weasley? Okay, I understand this - but what about the men sent by our Blois family? How many casualties are there?"
"Just as much."
"Then add another batch! By the way, don't let Willie know about this."
"Of course, I understand. It's just... Head of the family, I wonder what Mr. McClain would think of this?"
This conversation was heard in Mr. Blois's room at Beauxbatons not long after the Alliance team was forced to retreat to Camp Granger. The two parties involved in such a conversation were naturally Willy's father and the old housekeeper.
In the end, Mr. Blois did not give a direct answer to the old butler's question "What do you think?" After being silent for a while, he waved his hand and said:
"You go out first!"
"Okay, Master."
The old butler did not continue speaking, but after giving a slight bow as usual, he exited Mr. Blois's room. After closing the door, he looked at the door panel and sighed silently.
Obviously, as the butler of the Blois family, he actually overstepped his bounds with the last sentence - even though he had assisted Willie's grandfather and the old head of the Blois family back then, he is still the one doing it now. This will not change.
And even if you step back ten thousand steps, it should be the responsibility of the family directors who can participate in the family council to advise the family head, not his responsibility as a housekeeper.
Fortunately, Willy's father has always been someone who cherishes old friendships, and he didn't care about anything with him just now.
However, it has to be said that some of Mr. Blois's recent decisions really disapprove of the old housekeeper. Being so self-restrained and holding back is not the usual behavior of the Blois family.
It's a pity that the person in the room is the head of the Blois family, not the housekeeper.
"well-"
Sighing again in his heart, the old housekeeper turned and left the door of the room and went downstairs along the corridor.
…
When Sarah appeared in front of the Beauxbatons gate with a moment of space distortion, there was not much of the sunset that day left. But fortunately, she obviously made it in time for dinner at Beauxbatons. It's just that compared to usual times, the dinners at school recently are not particularly sumptuous.
Because now, Beauxbatons has finally come to its spring break, and most of the students have gone home to reunite with their families.
The entire campus was much quieter than usual.
"Miss, you...did you leave something at school?"
Because Sarah looked so much like a minor, the administrator on duty at the door immediately mistook her for a student returning to school.
"Oh, no! I am Sarah Hohenheim... Please tell Madame Maxime! Just say that I have a little business and wanted to come and visit."
"Hohenheim?"
Unlike Hogwarts, the administrator of Beauxbatons is also a wizard, and is obviously quite familiar with things in the magical world. Upon hearing this surname, he immediately stood up, nodded and said:
"Miss, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... During this extraordinary period, please wait outside for a moment. I hope you can understand."
The administrator was very efficient. After a few minutes, he returned to the gate again. But when he came back, there was still only one person, and Mrs. Maxim's tall figure was not seen on the left or right.
"Sorry, the principal doesn't seem to be in the school... Oh, this is my dereliction of duty. I didn't know that she left the school without knowing when." The other party said apologetically, and then added, "However, I have already I told a professor who was staying at the school about your arrival, and she said she would come over right away—"
However, before he finished speaking, Sarah suddenly turned her head slightly and cast her gaze behind him. When the other party saw this, he couldn't help but look back, only to find that at some point, the two girls who were very common recently had appeared behind him.
"You two ladies, what do you have..."
"It's nothing," Willy shook her head, and then said to Sarah, "Miss Hohenheim, why are you here? Aren't you at Winchester Church?"
"I should be the one asking you, right?" Sarah looked at her through the door, shook her head and said, "When did you come to Beauxbatons? Where is Mr. MacLean?"
After asking this question, she turned around and glanced at Delphi who was following Willy.
"Who are you-"
"A friend of Mr. MacLean's."
Delphi didn't say much, just introduced himself very briefly. As for her, although Sarah was a little curious, she didn't care much.
At the moment, Delphi is just a Muggle whose magic power has not yet awakened.
"Hello," Sarah nodded slightly, then looked at Willy again, "Miss Blois...that's it. Actually, I also want to talk to you about something. Do you welcome me?"
"Of course you are welcome." Willy replied without hesitation, "Well, it seems impolite to chat through the door... Mr. Administrator, can you open the door for me? Everyone knows this Miss Hohenheim, and she is not suspicious. people."
"But, the principal has specifically told me that it's best not to--"
"It doesn't matter," Willie shook her head and said, "Just open the door, I guarantee it."
Since Willy said so, he had no choice but to respond, took out the key and wand, and opened the school gate that was locked with magic and added a lot of protection.
Anyway, he had already notified a professor just now, and besides... Willie is the daughter of the Blois family in France, so her words can naturally be regarded as representing the Blois family. Now that even the head of the Blois family is staying at Beauxbatons as a guest, it seems that there is really nothing to worry about.
However, the three ladies present obviously did not care about the administrator's thoughts. When Sarah entered the school, Willie took her straight inside.
"Why!"
The administrator was about to say something to dissuade him, but he saw Sarah suddenly turned around and nodded behind him, making him stunned again.
When he hurriedly looked back, he suddenly felt that his efforts were in vain - and at some point, the professor he had just informed appeared behind him.
"Don't worry, Madam is back." The professor said casually while looking at Sarah's back seriously.
