Generally speaking, wizards' first magical riot in childhood often directly reflects their magical talent as a wizard. During the magic riot, the higher the child's control over this strange and chaotic power, the more limitless the child's growth will be in the future.
Although in the final analysis this is only one of the standards for measuring the qualifications of young wizards and cannot be used to represent a child's life, the reference value contained in it is still quite significant.
A child like the one in front of Maka can roughly control it with his own will when the magic power is rioting, which can be said to be quite remarkable.
For example, it is said that Voldemort was able to freely control his own power when he was a child. He could control objects to float and move with his thoughts when his magic power had just awakened, and he could even communicate with animals. This magical talent, far beyond that of an ordinary little wizard, almost destined him to have an extraordinary life.
Of course, the magic riot process like what Maka herself experienced is another matter.
Overall, the abilities displayed by this black-haired boy have attracted Maka's attention. In addition, the child's father seemed to be deliberately hiding some secrets, so his appearance became inevitable.
However, no matter how you look at it, it’s not hard to see—this man seems to be uncooperative at all, right
"Sir, although I just heard the noise at first, so I came over to see what happened. Well, looking back, it can actually be said that I came to see my future students or something like that..." Ma Ka said, "But to be honest, now I have to be curious about your identity."
"Hmph, I-"
"Stop talking about those useless things, there is no point in cheating," Maka waved her hand and interrupted the other party, "The Aurors in the Ministry of Magic have been very busy recently. I think... as long as I fight with them Say hello, they will come over soon to chat with you or something!"
Facts have proved that the deterrent effect of Aurors and the Ministry of Magic is quite large. Not to mention that Voldemort tried his best to erode the control of the Ministry of Magic. At least now, the expression of this irritable man who was dishonest from the beginning finally changed slightly.
"Boy, are you threatening me?"
Maka didn't care at all about the man's vicious look. Instead, she felt a little satisfied with the change in the other man's attitude - as long as he was willing to admit that he understood the magic world, whether directly or indirectly, he would be a good person. beginning.
"Maybe!" Maka spread her hands, "I have to say that your inconsistent performance really aroused my curiosity. But no matter what, this is just a personal curiosity... I am currently Hogg A professor at Wards has an obligation to conduct family background checks and confirmations for any student or future student at the appropriate time."
"Hogwarts..." The man repeated the word calmly, as if he was savoring some past events. After a moment, he glanced at Maka, "It was Albus Dumbledore who asked you to come. Of?"
When Maka heard this, she immediately raised her eyebrows.
Although with Dumbledore's reputation in the entire magical world, it was not surprising that his name was mentioned by anyone, but now that it came out of this man's mouth, Macadamia was a little surprised.
"No," he shook his head. "Professor Dumbledore is already dead... You don't know about this yet, do you?"
"Dead? That Dumbledore?" The man's eyes immediately widened, and he was astonished as never before. "Could it be that... it was... the Dark Lord who did it? He... finally succeeded?"
After Maka heard this, she immediately stared at the man with a puzzled expression and took a good look at him.
This guy actually didn't even know anything about the recent most famous incident of the Dark Lord's fall, but he clearly knew a lot about the magical world. In this case, we can only think that he stayed in the Muggle world for too long and was caused by lack of information.
"Voldemort is also dead," Maka shrugged, "It was just a few months ago—don't you know?"
"Also...dead too?"
The man's expression and posture changed again and again as Maka spoke. His surprise was indescribable, but in the end it all turned into a subtle confusion.
"No, how is this possible? Impossible... no..."
In Maka's increasingly serious eyes, he involuntarily took a few steps back and leaned against the wall weakly again. Then his legs became weak and he sat down in the corner. His son stood next to Maka, staring at his father with a confused look on his face. From time to time he raised his head and glanced at Maka's side face, obviously not understanding what the current situation was.
"It seems that the reason why you hide in the Muggle world and never talk about the past is because you have a close relationship with Voldemort?"
Maka's words were more of an assertion than a guess. But this is indeed the case - for this man to show such astonishment, the key is almost self-evident.
The man with a slender figure leaning against the wall was silent, his eyes seemed a little dull, but the final words that came out of his mouth were quite clear.
"Yes, you guessed it right..." He murmured, as if he was answering Maka, but also seemed to be talking to himself, "V... The Dark Lord, yes... all of this is because of him. Give me my family and my life..."
The man muttered a few words to himself, and suddenly he stood up again, supporting himself.
Just looking at his exhausted appearance, it was unclear whether it was because he had been injured before or because the news of Voldemort's death had a huge impact on his spirit. At this moment, he looked as if he had aged more than ten years.
"You said you are a professor at Hogwarts? Humph... When did the standard of Hogwarts become so low..." He lowered his eyelids and waved his hand casually, "Enns, you stay here In the room... As for you, hum, young professor, come here with me... "
"Why do you want me to stay here! Is there anything I can't hear?"
"Shut up! You little bastard..." the man shouted sternly without looking back, "If you still want to go to a magic school, just leave it to me and stay here! Without my consent, I won't see Hogwart." Do I dare to take you in by force?"
Maka smiled and shook her head, then reached out and patted the child on the shoulder.
"Just wait!" he comforted, "If necessary, I will tell you the same thing in the future, right?"
"Uh... um..."
The little guy nodded reluctantly and reluctantly agreed with Maka's statement. This made Maka discover that although this little boy was as stubborn as his father, he would still listen if he could talk to him properly.
After patting his arm again, Maka opened her legs and followed the man who was going downstairs to the first floor. The other party's wife was shocked when she saw that there was another person in the house.
"The child, the child's father, this is..."
Facing his wife's confused eyes, the man walked past her, sat on the sofa and waved impatiently.
"Go and prepare some refreshments to entertain the distinguished guests, now—go quickly!"
It can be seen that this man is used to giving orders to his family in daily life, whether the object is his son or his wife. And his wife seemed to have already adapted to her position at home. Even though she was still very surprised by Maka's appearance, she still went to the kitchen with her husband's instructions.
"Sit down! Young professor..." The guy frowned, obviously still immersed in the previous shock, but he still did not forget to sarcastically say to Maka, "Aren't you a professor at Hogwarts? In that case , a few protective spells can still do it, right? Next, I need to have a high degree of confidentiality measures-"
Maka sat down on the single sofa on the other side of the coffee table. Without waiting for the other party to say something, she waved her hand seemingly casually. At that moment, several thin films that looked like soap bubbles appeared and disappeared around them, directly covering a small space near the two people.
"You can say it," he stretched out his hand to indicate, "but please say it more simply and clearly. I still have a friend waiting for me to go back!"
Although Maka did not sense any magic fluctuations in the opponent's body, judging from his performance, he was not lacking in knowledge. When Maka showed his hand, it could be seen that the guy's eyes immediately became a little surprised.
"Hmph... It seems that the standard of Hogwarts has not only not become lower, but is actually higher than before?" He curled his lips, but his expression was much more cautious than before, "Well, I know what you want to ask... Yes, it was because the Dark Lord persecuted my grandfather that my father had to take the young me to escape from the magical world and live in this damn Muggle world!"
"Are the Death Eaters trying to hunt you down?" Maka asked doubtfully, "For what?"
"Hmph, those crazy guys want to kill people, do they need a reason?" The man sneered, "Of course, there may be some unknown triggers, right? But at least I don't know... How old was I then? You Do you think my father will tell me?”
"Oh, okay!" Maka nodded and said, "So, is it because in your generation, you are still hiding your name to avoid Death Eaters? Don't you even have the idea of understanding the current situation in the magical world?"
"Is this embarrassing?" Hearing Maka say this, the other party said confidently, "Do you want me to risk exposure and go to the magic world to inquire about news from time to time? Huh? Just because I am a damn squib? Huh? ?”
When Maka heard this, she could only blink with a subtle smile - what this bastard said made sense!
