Wind and Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Chapter 263
"Jack Yaxley?"

Scott looked at the newspaper photo of Jake Yaxley celebrating his win.

This is a very young wizard, who looks only in his 20s, younger than Brandon Yaxley, who once attacked Scott.

To be able to win the All England Wizards Duel Championship at such an age seems to be a guy not to be underestimated.

Because Rimbaud's crows kept tabs on members of the Yaxley family, Scott knew some basics about Jack Yaxley.

This young wizard is only 25 years old this year. He graduated from Slytherin College of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry 8 years ago. He is the youngest son of Yaxley's generation.

Scott looked at the detailed report in the newspaper.

[Our reporter Peyton Sudworth reports.

The recently held All-British Wizards Duel Tournament has come to a successful conclusion. This historic event...

…Jacque Yaxley, a 25-year-old young man from a pure-blood Yaxley family, defeated his formidable opponent, 45-year-old Karamore Rozier, in the final to claim the title Championship!
"Unbelievable!"

"He is an exceptional young man!"

More than one wizard at the scene praised the unusually young Mr. Champion.

Severus Snape, the current head of Hogwarts Slytherin House, was invited to watch the game and expressed his appreciation for his former students winning the championship.

"Mr. Yaxley is the youngest genius among the fighting champions over the years, and he is the pride of Slytherin." Professor Snape said in an interview.

Mr. Champion was very polite and humble in the post-match interview.

He said that his achievements today are inseparable from the cultivation of his family and school.

"More importantly, I have both Yaxley and Travers blood, yes, my mother is from the Trivers family."

The author believes that this young fighting champion, acclaimed genius, Mr. Jake Yaxley, who has the blood of 28 holy races and two races, has once again proved to people the superiority of pure-blood families...]
Scott didn't read the praise of Yaxley and the pure-blood family in the second half of the report, and put down the newspaper directly.

He whispered, "It seems that the All-British Wizards Duel Tournament can no longer represent true glory."

Of course, the championship of the All-British Wizarding Duel Tournament is completely different from the championship of the All-European Duel Tournament that Professor Flitwick once won, but it was also an event that swept the entire British wizarding world.

But look now?
It wasn't until the end of the game and the winner was decided that the results of the game made it to the Daily Prophet, not the headlines.

One can imagine how unpopular this game is today.

Scott once heard Professor Flitwick complain. He didn't know when the All-British Wizarding Duel Tournament had been completely controlled by those pure-blood families with money and power.

They will manipulate the process and results of the competition to a certain extent, and play the duel competition as an internal game of the pure-blood family.

Such a phenomenon disgusted Professor Flitwick, and he seldom mentioned his title of dueling champion.

What Scott finds interesting about this story are two short paragraphs.

He saw the purpose of the Yaxley family in it.

As the youngest son of the Yaxley family, this Jake Yaxley does not have the inheritance rights of the Yaxley family, but apparently the Yaxley family's spokesperson has selected him to compete for the heir position of the Travers family.

This story is all about promoting the young wizard, so his bloodlines will be emphasized like a dog for sale.

"I didn't expect them to be so undisguised."

Scott gasped in amazement.

Although Jack Yaxley is young, he is also 25 years old.

The Yaxley family chose such an adult wizard as a contender for the succession of the Travers family, and it looked rather ugly.

Even for pure blood families, this kind of thing is still rare.

Because in the past, if they would adopt, they would usually choose the little wizard who had the first magic riot.

Scott muttered with great interest, "Interesting, how will the other two families launch their heir contenders?"

He has already begun to look forward to the time when their competition will heat up.

At noon, Scott asked Rimbaud to drive him to the small town called Callender.

He settled for lunch at a restaurant in town, and bought some food at the market by the way.

Before returning to the forest, he called his parents again to let them know he was still alive and kicking.

In the afternoon, the crow watching Knockturn Alley brought new news.

Boginbock's sudden death caused a sensation, and even the Ministry of Magic, which had always ignored Knockturn Alley, sent Aurors to investigate.

After the investigation, they could only come up with the fact that Bojinbok was poisoned and died, and could not find other clues.

Scott had expected this.

In his opinion, it is very easy for a wizard to take someone's life secretly.

Directly using spells to attack is the most easily exposed method of killing.

He was not worried that the disappearance of the thief Fletcher would be found on his head.

Thieves and underground businessmen like Mundungus Fletcher have always been elusive, and it is not easy for people to know his whereabouts.

And now, the only Bok who knew that Mr. Thief had gone to Spain had also died.

In a short time, people will only think that Mundungus Fletcher has gone somewhere to steal or cheat.

Even if he hasn't seen anyone for a long time, normally he would only think that he might have been killed while stealing.

And Scott has never had anything to do with this person.

Although Scott still has things to do next, he is not ready to play in person.

As promised with his parents, he will return to Madrid before his birthday and will not let others know that he has been to England during the summer vacation.

When Rimbaud told Scott the news from Knockturn Alley, he was sitting on the floor by the door holding a thick notebook.

After hearing the news, Scott said to Rimbaud: "I'm going to hide my cabin with a spell."

Rimbaud was very surprised by this, "There is such a spell?"

"of course."

Scott looked at his handwriting on the notebook.

Crazy Loyalty Curse.

This is an extremely complex spell that can keep a secret forever in the soul of a living person.

That secret is hidden in the secret keeper's heart, and will never be discovered unless the secret keeper takes the initiative to reveal it.

As long as Scott hides the cabin with the Fidelity Charm, even if other people put their noses on the glass of the cabin, they will not see the existence of the cabin.

Rimbaud asked curiously after listening to Scott's explanation, "Can you use such a spell smoothly?"

"I haven't tried it yet, so I'm trying to learn."

Scott continued looking at the notes in his hand.

This notebook records some extremely difficult or infrequently used spells, which he copied from the Hogwarts library and the Ravenclaw library.
