Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

I became the first-year representative of our house. The deputy representative was Hannah from the Abbot family, and the other was Justin, who came from a Muggle family but was born into an aristocratic family. He chose to give up a prestigious school and enroll in Hogwarts.

"Why do you come to a place like this?"

"Because I'm not the heir of the family, and I was told to learn to control my power. Before the facility opened by the Kuro family was built, I didn't understand why, and it was very difficult. Since it is possible to pass this power on to my child, of course I have to see what kind of place this is."

"Well, it's better than a few years ago, right? You still plan to go to college, right?"

"Of course, I plan to go to university. I heard that the school will also provide support, so I am not too worried. I was really surprised when I heard that the Malfoys are also a wizarding family. No wonder I always felt that they were a little otherworldly."

"The Malfoy family is indeed a noble family among the wizarding aristocrats. Although they always look elegant and leisurely, they are actually very resourceful."

"They run a lot of foundations. Are they related to magic?"

"Partially, but I don't know the details. They will use the guise of protecting the habitats of magical creatures, which can cover up some things and reduce conflicts with Muggle society. For example, the foundation that provides part-time jobs for students is also run by them."

"It seems that even from a Muggle perspective, their profession is legitimate and even respectable."

"Now Hogwarts holds career information sessions to introduce career opportunities suitable for students who want to walk the line between the two worlds, such as law and finance, as well as foundations run by the Malfoy and Black families."

"So the Black family is involved. He is really resourceful, isn't he?"

"He is indeed a man of means, but he is like a naughty boy in private. Blake is still single, and my aunt always sighs that no one is willing to marry him. The contrast between Blake's work and private life is too great for ordinary women to stand. Although he is very handsome and very popular in social occasions, most people retreat after getting to know him."

"Interesting. I heard he was Harry Potter's guardian, the Harry from Gryffindor?"

"Yes. Black puts Harry first, and only those who can accept this can be with him. Also, there are some dangerous items hidden in the Black family's house, so the person who marries into this family must be strong enough. I often go to his house, and there are really all kinds of dangerous things there."

"That sounds interesting. Can you tell me more about the wizarding world?"

"Of course! Please give me more advice in the future!"

I made some friends who shared my interests and were actually quite smart and were planning to go to prestigious schools. I felt like I had made a good start to my time at Hogwarts.

Hufflepuffs are always friendly, so there is no trouble in the house. Sometimes I just help people answer questions. Although Harry, Draco and others and I are from different houses, we have a good relationship. Because I also joined the chess club, I made many friends and seniors from different houses.

Harry and I also set up a serpent language club. As expected, Professor Fancy Class was extremely interested in this proposal and he handled all the tedious formalities. Most of the participants were Slytherin students, but learning serpent language is difficult. We recorded Harry speaking serpent language in advance and sent it to those who were interested. They might learn something by listening to it every day.

I eat with my brothers every week. Sometimes in the Great Hall, or take out lunches prepared by the house-elves from the Hogwarts kitchens with Vincent and Gregory, and occasionally try their new dishes. I suggested publishing a lunch recipe book, and they thought it was a good idea, so they started making lunches seriously. I also asked the twins to try making a lunch box that would preserve food.

Vincent and Gregory are almost regular visitors to the kitchen. They always stay with the elves, constantly teaching them new dishes. They have become the elves' favorites and also concentrate on studying cooking in Hogwarts.

"By the way, we are going to study abroad at a magic school in Japan for two years next year, and they have already sent us an official invitation."

"Remember those people we met at the Malfoy family the summer before last? They seemed to be observing us at the time, and now they have finally sent us a formal invitation. We wrote to Bill and Charlie to seek their opinions, and Charlie said he was worried about us. After we contacted them, they allowed Charlie to go with us."

Charlie currently works at the Black Family Foundation for the protection of magical creatures.

"Ron is also very popular with them, right?"

"Well, maybe? But rather than liking us, it's more like they find us interesting and are observing us. One of the three is more dangerous than Black, which is really unexpected. That human-like existence, I once doubted whether he was human. They praised the way the leader of the Black family's house-elves handled the situation. This method is indeed good. We talked about Dementors, and they also said that they are somewhat similar to the supernatural creatures in Japan."

We told them that the British Ministry of Magic had consulted Japan a few years ago and provided a lot of information. Thanks to this, the voices opposing the use of Dementors to guard prisoners have almost disappeared.
