Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

Later, I asked an elderly pure-blood nobleman about the situation. He was the uncle of my mother's first husband, and he had been very kind to my mother and me since that man died.

He holds a "neutral to darkness" stance, so he has many acquaintances on both sides.

Although he expressed his willingness to participate, he dragged along friends who were against it.

It is said that when they were young, there was a famous fortune teller named Belinda.

By that time, she was already an old woman, so she was thought to have died and never reappeared, but until recently, people still claimed to have seen someone who looked like Belinda, so she became a mystery.

"So she's Wesley's witch... That makes sense."

"What does it mean?"

"Because she doesn't seem to be interested in money. Even if she pays a lot of money, she doesn't want to meet those people. Instead, she will tell fortunes for free for those who are interested in her. I have seen her take the initiative to say to people she is interested in on the street, 'Let's chat, I'll buy you tea.' I have also seen her offer chocolates in exchange. Just after that, she rejected people who offered a lot of money because she didn't want to meet them. She is really a free-spirited person.

She is not so much a fortune teller as she can find the best option. If you consult Belinda, she will let you know the path you should take? It makes people feel happy.

However, she sometimes says things as if she can foresee the future. She is indeed a very good witch. She is a popular fortune teller. But she seems to have no intention of making a lot of money with this ability. She just chats with various people for her own fun and makes a little money to maintain her basic life.

It's very Wesley style indeed.

To be honest, everyone laughs at the Wesley family for being poor, but from the head of the Wesley family, we can see that the family members are basically not interested in money and power. Although there are many people among them who are capable of making money, they put all their energy into the things they are interested in, and as a result, money becomes secondary, so they have always been poor. This is the case with the Wesley family.

You can tell from the verification data, right? There are obviously many companies willing to buy it at a huge price, but they made it public for free. Not only the pure-blood nobles, but the entire wizarding world has benefited. Moreover, there is now a list circulating among the pure-blood nobles that records in detail how the Ministry of Magic staff spent their time when rebuilding the barrier, right? I think this may also be done by Wesley."

"Huh? That's really worth a lot of money. I thought it was made by pure-blood nobles and Ministry of Magic staff."

"No. The list does include the rankings of pure-blood nobles, but if it was made by pure-blood nobles, it wouldn't be like this. Wesley also included himself, but that was to cover up. If Wesley wasn't included in the list, it would immediately be exposed that it was made by them."

"But what's the purpose of doing this? If this is sold normally, it can make a lot of money, right?"

“This is Wesley’s place. Asking them why, maybe to satisfy their curiosity?

Judging from Wesley's verification results, they should have known the tendency of their own family long ago, and the investigation has been completed. So, maybe it will become boring? In this way, the opposition structure between light and darkness will be resolved, and the magic world will become a place where people are evaluated by strength. They want to make a detailed list and then pass it to the famous families to observe how marriages change and what kind of children will be born. They just want this, they are such a family. "

"So, how did that list get out?"

"I heard it was in the luggage of a Ministry of Magic employee and somehow got in."

"Say it's Wesley's business, that's just speculation, right?"

"Well, sort of. But I think it was definitely Wesley. Although they would never admit it.

When you see that list, don't you wonder why we have such an evaluation? If it is revealed that they did it, they will definitely get into trouble. They hate this kind of trouble more than the money they get from selling these materials.

However, only Wesley can do this kind of thing. Whether it is darkness or light, the noble families were so busy discussing future policies with their clansmen this summer that they had no time to make such a list. Besides, you have also seen that list, right? It lists in detail the popular departments from idle positions to busy ones, and even includes a few administrative positions in the noble families. Although Wesley's people are not in the popular departments, there must be a Wesley in the departments that provide logistical support. Due to the large number of people, they are scattered everywhere. Moreover, Wesley is not a wealthy family. Many of them are dual-income families, so the number of spouses is considerable. Moreover, the list records in detail everyone's grades and subjects they are good at at Hogwarts. It is a good list for finding a marriage partner. Even the marital status and the presence or absence of children are written in detail... Such information, except for the Wesley family, really no one can grasp it. "

"How are Hogwarts' grades investigated?"

“This list was not made specifically for the purpose of investigation, but they just knew about it.

There are so many people in their family, so someone must be attending Hogwarts. Is Weasley's presence a normal thing? There is always someone attending Hogwarts. Weasley is a Gryffindor, but his spouse is not necessarily a Gryffindor, in fact, there are many Slytherins. So just ask one person and you can immediately know someone's expertise. "

"Is that so... I didn't know that before. Now that you mention it, it is true. But this is really special. Normally, they would use this information to make money or strengthen their family's power."

"They are not interested in these things. What they want to know more is how to change the future of the next generation of pure-blooded nobles, or even the next generation, by absorbing new blood. This is simply an experiment. They are excited about these changes and look forward to the results. Such families, driven by curiosity, will pay more attention to satisfying their curiosity rather than money.

However, they are all very good wizards. Even if they are against the dark forces, they can easily deal with them without relying on the light forces. You can also see that they don't even follow Dumbledore completely.

This is a very capable group. The Wesleys. Although they are also a group of strange people. "

"Indeed."

"If this strange and capable Weasley family does not actively work to reform the wizarding world, the magical race may become inferior to the Muggles, and our family will support such a statement."

Arthur and his wife are well-known followers of Dumbledore, but since the current head of the family took office, the Weasley family has always kept a certain distance from Dumbledore, although it is called the Light Family, which has also won them a certain reputation among the pure-blood nobles. Although they accept people of Muggle origin, they do not marry Muggles, which is also recognized by the pure-blood nobles.

Later, the Malfoy family planned to control the Muggle economy behind the scenes, so they began to actively invest in promising enterprises and contact pure-blood nobles with sufficient financial resources. Of course, my mother and I were also invited. When we attended the briefing, many families expressed their willingness to squeeze out a lot of money even if they did not have sufficient financial resources.

"If the investment fails, won't I end up living on the streets? Is that really okay?"

"It's okay. It doesn't matter if that's the case.

We once dreamed of a prosperous wizarding race with the followers of Lord Voldemort. Although I know in my heart that this possibility is higher. I think it is better to go to extinction than to follow Dumbledore. That guy just wants to eliminate the pure-blood nobility. No matter what, the pure-blood nobility will eventually go to extinction. If this is the case, I would rather fall brilliantly under the leadership of Lord Voldemort, with the pride of being a pure-blood nobility in my heart.

But after listening to the conversation between Blake and Wesley, I seemed to see the future path that the magic race should take. For the first time, I felt a bright hope. So, I am willing to take this gamble. "

“Are we like this too?

In fact, our wizards and Muggle-borns below Hogwarts were sent to Muggle universities, and even those who worked in companies there, the whole family got together and discussed it carefully. When the prospects of Weasley were presented, they thought it was worth taking out all their money, even willing to go bankrupt.

They told me: "We haven't actually said it, but if we continue like this, the future of the magic race will be bleak. If this is the case, we would rather take the risk and participate in this plan."

So, we also decided to participate in this plan.

Furthermore, those familiar with Muggle technology began to express their willingness to cooperate if we could combine Muggle technology with wizarding technology to create technology far superior to Muggle technology. Therefore, we pinned the future of the wizarding race on this project.

If this plan fails, it will prove that the magic race is nothing more than this."

In this way, a large amount of funds were pooled in a short period of time from families with sufficient funds to families with insufficient funds. Of course, my mother and I also participated in the investment.

In addition, the research institute that the Black family was preparing had begun operation, and the noble family was secretly selecting talents who had been educated in Muggle universities and were suitable for research. Although it would take some time for the formal research facilities to be put into use, the provision of personnel and materials had already begun. They had already begun to carefully select a site, land selection, and legal preparations.
