Hogwarts: Harry's Path to Witches

Chapter 68 Two Letters

After staying in France for more than half a month, Harry finally returned to the Dursleys' house with Professor Dumbledore.

(Originally there was an original plot, but the problem was that I was not in a good condition and still had a fever, so I pushed the plot back.)

"How do you feel about this trip to France?" Professor Dumbledore asked with a smile when he sent Harry to the door of the Dursley's house.

"Did you gain anything?"

"Hmm," Harry lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Is the food in the French wizarding community better than the British wizarding community?"

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, then winked mischievously: "You think so too, right?

I have always wanted our chefs to go to France to study, but unfortunately the school directors are not willing to pay for it. "

Harley smiled awkwardly: "Well, this is quite regrettable..."

Dumbledore interrupted Harry: "Okay, Harry, I'm going to the Ministry of Magic to report.

I hope you can recall the whole trip well again. Food is impressive, but there are a lot more important things than food, right? "

Then, Dumbledore disappeared directly.

Harley did not knock on the door immediately, but quickly took out a small bag with several hairs in it.

When she learned that Dumbledore was taking her to France, Harry sealed Hermione's hair and redirected the contract she signed to point to herself.

Now that Professor Dumbledore is gone, why do you still keep this contract?

……

After returning to the Dursley's house, it was obvious that they were not satisfied with Harry staying there for another half month, but they had no choice but to hold their noses and admit it.

Moreover, the Dursleys had more important things to do, which was to help Dudley lose weight.

On July 31st, when Uncle Vernon was preparing to negotiate the biggest deal, Dudley fell over the dessert because he was too fat.

So Uncle Vernon's business failed without a doubt, and his dream of moving to a new villa came to nothing.

So Dudley had to start losing weight, at least not to miss the next time he discussed business.

……

When Harley returned to the room, she found two letters on the table, as well as her birthday gift.

Hedwig was standing at the table, preening her feathers.

Before departure, Harry fostered Hedwig at Hermione's house. After all, it was inconvenient to carry an owl.

It seems that this spiritual snow owl also had a premonition of Harley's return, so it flew back early and waited in the room.

Harry sat at the table and read the two letters.

One of them was a catalog of textbooks sent by the school. Except for one "Standard Spells, Level 2", they were all books by Gilderoy Lockhart.

"Tsk!" Harley shook her head, this new professor is really interesting.

I don’t know whether he chose to be a professor because he wanted to be a professor or because he wanted to increase book sales.

The other was a letter from Hermione, wishing Harry a happy birthday and asking Harry if he would like to go to Diagon Alley to buy books together on August 15th.

Harry naturally agreed and quickly wrote a reply.

There are also several birthday gifts on the table, sent by friends. Most of them were candies and the like, except Hermione who gave me a book.

……

On August 15th, Harley took the subway alone to the Leaky Cauldron.

Hermione was alone in the Leaky Cauldron, sipping pumpkin juice. After seeing Harley, she ran over quickly.

"How was your vacation? Is the French wizarding world fun?" Hermione asked.

"Actually, I didn't play at all." Harley shrugged and came to the backyard of the bar,

"Professor Dumbledore has been taking me to visit magic masters or important figures in the wizarding world.

You know, most of them are a group of grandfather-level figures, with an average age of over seventy years old. "

"That sounds interesting." Hermione knocked on the corresponding brick and opened the door to Diagon Alley.

"It's indeed quite interesting. The research scope of those masters is really wide." Harley nodded,

"Didn't uncle and aunt come?"

"No." Hermione shook her head, "They had an appointment today, so they asked me to come by myself. I have to go to Gringotts first to exchange for galleons."

"That's just right, I'm going to get some money too."

After arriving at Gringotts, Hermione went to the counter specially opened for Muggle-born wizards, while Harry followed a goblin to his vault.

Looking at the short figure of the goblin and thinking of their past, Harry really wanted to lament the impermanence of the world.

The car driven by the goblin flew across the railway tracks and finally stopped steadily in front of Harley's vault.

This feeling is really uncomfortable and makes me want to vomit.

Everything in the vault was exactly as it was when Harley left last time.

Harry quickly put a handful of gold coins into his pocket, and then picked out a few gems.

Then, she turned around and looked at the door of the vault. The goblin was quite professional and did not follow her at all.

Harley casually set up a spiritual wall and released two small curses that served as warnings.

Then, Harley walked towards the cabinet at the deepest part of the vault.

This row of cabinets was locked tightly, but there was no keyhole on it.

Harry recalled Professor Dumbledore's statement that only the blood of the Potter family could open these cabinets.

A small piece of spider silk appeared and lightly swiped on Harley's white and slender fingers.

Dark red blood oozed out, and Harry spread it directly onto the cabinet closest to the edge of the vault.

Immediately, invisible magic waves appeared on the cabinet, and then the cabinet door opened directly.

Inside the cabinet is a pile of items with strong magical fluctuations, as well as a roll of parchment.

Harry cautiously did not touch those items, but used spider silk to take out the parchment.

There was a line written on the top of the parchment: Potter Family Collection (Cabinet No. 1).

Below are the names of various magic items, along with their uses and taboos.

After reading the parchment, Harry carefully used spider silk to draw out the item in the cabinet with the weakest magic power—a small dagger.

After confirming that the dagger's efficacy was exactly as written on the parchment, Harry opened the remaining cabinets instead of studying the remaining magic items.

Inside those cabinets are various books, magic materials that are easy to store for a long time, and many precious magic items.

In addition, in the last cabinet, there are two letters.

The first letter was written by an unknown ancestor:

"Descendants of the Potter family, although I don't know which generation you are from, I hope you can remember to never put all your eggs in the same basket."

The second letter was signed by James Potter and Lily Potter:

"Dear child. If you read this letter alone, it means that we have died in the war against Voldemort.

I'm sorry that I couldn't give you more affection and companionship. Please forgive Mom and Dad.

What's inside the cabinet is the Potter family's collection. I hope you can make good use of it.

Love you. "

Looking at the letter, Harry didn't speak for a long time.
