Harry Potter: Who cares about belated motherly love?

"Also, you just said that the number of pure-blood noble children is decreasing. If they are really worried about this, then they should investigate the reason, right?

The decrease in pure blood has caused the wizarding world to feel a sense of crisis about the influx of Muggle-borns, but if the number of pure blood can be guaranteed, they will not be so nervous. So, isn't it more important to find out why it is becoming increasingly difficult to have children? For this, they should be willing to invest money. "

"What do you think is the reason for the decrease in the number of pure bloods?" the twins asked in unison.

"I guess it's because of my pure blood," Ron replied.

"My thought is that the bloodline is too homogenous," I added.

Both possibilities are possible.

"I thought so once, but the genetics of the magical race may be completely different from those of Muggles. Come to think of it, if our grandmother was from the Black family, then there may be another explanation."

"What is it?" Fred and George asked expectantly.

me either.

"In fact, in my opinion, the Weasley family can still be considered a pure-blood family even in my grandfather's generation. Otherwise, our family name would not appear in the register. At least from a direct lineage point of view, we have always maintained pure blood. Even if we trace back to more distant branches, we may find the emergence of Muggle blood, but that may be the same as other pure-blood families. However, the Weasley family has always been famous for its fertility."

"Indeed." The twins nodded.

"Well, I want to talk about my past life. The Internet is a place where everyone can share all kinds of experiences and heritage. I lived in China for a few years and learned some Chinese. China is a country that has preserved many traditions and customs, so their horror stories are different from those in Europe. They are very interesting and I read them often."

I then raised a question that had been bothering me for a long time.

"Ron, I have always had a question, are you really just an ordinary company employee?

This has always struck me as odd.

Even without using telepathy, I could tell what Patsy and the twins were thinking from the looks in their eyes.

However, since you were born, your mind has been protected by an indestructible barrier and is completely impossible to understand.

I don't think a normal muggle corporate clerk could do that.

In Muggle society, I have almost never met such people.

The other day, we were setting up a stall at an antique fair and I noticed that you completely switch to a different language depending on who you are talking to.

When you communicated with the American buyer, you used American English, right?

Moreover, it can be seen that you are very sure that the world we are in now is different from the past world line.

How can an ordinary office worker have such judgment? You must have been in a high position in your previous world, right?

Not only can you master various dialects of English, but you can also be proficient in multiple languages.

Don’t you think you’re unusual, growing up from a slum kid to this point?”

Ron smiled when he heard my question.

"Bill, you are worthy of me. However, as a company employee, I did not lie."

Ron looked me straight in the eyes, but I still couldn't see through him.

Well, let's just believe what he said.

"Well, forget it then."

With Ron, our parents simply couldn’t cope.

To be honest, he is more like an uncle than a father.

I'm so glad he left that home.

"Then I will continue."

"Where were we talking about?" the twins asked.

"Chinese legend," Charlie replied.

"Yes, in Chinese horror stories, it is often mentioned that the family is cursed, the ancestral home has bad feng shui, etc."

"Curse!" I couldn't help but shout out loud.

"Bill, you want to be an expert in removing curses, so you should be very interested in this topic.

There is a characteristic of cursed families, that is, although there are not many descendants, there will always be an heir born and grow up successfully. Do you know why?"

“Why didn’t it stop?”

"I understand! For the curse to continue, there must be a family heir, otherwise the curse has no target. These curses do not want to exterminate the family, but to make the family suffer forever. Instead of killing off all the descendants, the curse is more difficult to detect. By the time it is discovered, it may be impossible to lift it."

"That's exactly what you are, Bill.

Additionally, among those popular horror stories, there is a type that tells about dark witchcraft items.

For example, the sacrifice was sealed in a wooden box to create a cursed object specifically for women and children.

Simply put, these items can spell disaster if unwittingly removed from a home.”

"It is to prevent the continuation of the family line and to prevent the children born from growing up."

"By the way, speaking of our Weasley family, haven't we always been called the 'Family of Light'? Doesn't this 'light' refer to the nature of the family itself? Most of those items have strong dark attributes, right? I think our family may have a strong resistance to these dark attributes.

Perhaps because of this, our family has a prolific tendency, which is why we are called the 'Family of Light'.

In Eastern culture, there is an idea that women are considered yin and men are considered yang.

In fact, there are obviously more males in our Weasley family. I think this is because the yang characteristics are stronger, so it is not easy for females to be born.

The older the family, the more likely it is to be cursed in some way.

While the obvious curses may have been dealt with, what about those not directly targeting the head of the family or the heir? The heir barely exists, but there is no one else. This may also be a curse, that's what I think."

"'The bloodline itself is cursed'?"

"Or the entire family itself, especially those with a long history, it is not impossible."

"Is it through blood recognition or family protection? But it is indeed not impossible."

“Pure-blood nobles should also be conducting research in this area, but this may not be a research that can be made public, right?

However, the phenomenon of duds may also be related to this.

Is there a curse that prevents wizards from being born? For those wizard families with a long history, this is the most important thing. "

"From a research perspective, this is really interesting. Yes... I've always focused on curses on objects, but it seems that there are also curses on people..."

I felt my vision suddenly broadened.

That's right! Curses can be removed for more than just objects.

"Speaking of the Black family, whose dark attributes are very strong but whose family continues to thrive, I am very interested in them. Judging from the name, 'Black' is very meaningful.

Aren’t there two straight males? The dark attribute is too strong, and maybe even the curse can’t be deflected like in our family, but instead it is transformed into the dark power of the Black family.

That's why they are called the 'royal family'.

However, considering that their direct bloodline was almost cut off, it seems that their bloodline is too strong.

It was originally intended to transform the disaster that was about to happen into nutrients, but now it seems that it can no longer bear it and is beginning to overflow.

This overflowing darkness may be covering the entire wizarding world.

Perhaps the Black family has played a role in controlling the overflow of darkness in some sense. Thinking in this way, the survival of the Black family may indeed have extremely important and far-reaching significance for the wizarding world.

I'm also interested in the items that were brought back from the Black family during the Ministry incident.

If there really are so many similar things in their family, then I think the Black bloodline is indeed special.

Could they have signed a pact with the dark elves?

Wow, this is so exciting!”

It seems that Ron is really a boy who gets easily excited. Things like dark elves can really arouse the curiosity of young people.
