HP Shavings Wizard

Upstairs in the principal's office.

Walburga cast a soundproofing charm and turned the black stone.

Sirius could not see the phantom of his brother summoned by the Soul Stone, but he could feel Walburga trembling.

The poor mother cried even harder at the tenderness of her youngest son, and Regulus kept soothing her. After a long time, she calmed down and hugged her last time to say goodbye.

Walburga wiped her tears, turned around, and saw that her rebellious eldest son was standing quietly by the side, and even retreated to the stairs so as not to disturb her.

Sirius looked at her and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

Walburga regained his usual haughty self, ignored his rebellious son, and went downstairs first.

However, she left the Soul-Returning Stone on the table.

Sirius picked up the Resurrection Stone, stared at it blankly for a while, then took a deep breath and turned it.

In addition to Regulus, the figures of James and Lily also appeared beside him. Those dead who sensed the desire in their hearts and responded to the call came closer and hugged him, with smiles on their faces.

……

downstairs.

Walburga came down, her eyes slightly red, but her expression was much more relaxed than before. She looked at the family downstairs and smiled gratefully.

Then, the old lady talked about the deal that had been promised previously on behalf of the head of the family.

All that Alison had promised before had been generously and tolerantly fulfilled, so the Black family would naturally respond.

The meeting in the headmaster's office was not only to borrow the Resurrection Stone, but also a sign of shrewdness and tacit understanding between the two Slytherins.

For Alison, the deterrence of her two parents, Dumbledore and Grindelwald, can guarantee to the greatest extent that Walburga will not try to break the contract, and at the same time it can send a signal that the Black family will be used normally and safely.

For Walburga, making a deal with his daughter under the witness of Dumbledore, who generally behaves in a gentle manner, can ensure that Miss Grindelwald will not lead the Black family into the abyss with evil and cruelty like Voldemort did.

At this time, the Black family, who had taken Sirius back, handed over the Horcrux against the Dark Lord's will, and cut off their own support, had no other choice but to gamble on the control ability of the greatest wizard across from them and his love and education for their daughter.

Walburga took a deep breath and asked, "Ms. Grindelwald, I want to know what exactly you need the Black family for."

Alison thought for a moment and repeated what she had said to Harry before.

"I talked to Harry about some safe trivia: like going to other countries, helping me collect some designated news, and buying some local specialty gifts and materials."

Walburga had also heard this from Harry and Sirius, so he frowned and reconfirmed it. He couldn't believe that this dangerous young lady had schemed to get one of the twenty-eight sacred families, the ancient Black family, just to get them to help with some errands.

"That's all?"

Alison was silent for a moment and glanced upstairs. Seeing that Sirius hadn't come down yet, she tried to answer the doubts of the acting head of the family as tactfully as possible.

With the original information and strength, it is not difficult to get the Black family. She really just found a few tools who can avoid her parents to run errands for convenience and keep it secret as much as possible.

Sirius is indeed handsome and charming, but he is not suitable to be a subordinate. His impulsiveness, anger and desire for freedom can only make the superior shake his head, and Alison doesn't want to waste time and energy trying to train a husky who is loyal to Potter and free adventure.

——This difficult task will be given to Harry. If he is well trained, she will be at his beck and call. If he is not well trained, only Harry, as the godson, will have to bear the brunt of it.

"...Well, your eldest son. Actually, compared to him, I feel more at ease with the first-year Harry."

Walburga was stunned for a moment, and then the mother recalled all the rebellious and stupid things her son had done - the stupidest of which was being schemed by that dirty rat Pettigrew. Others faked their deaths and tricked her stupid son into following the Ministry of Magic with a wild smile, without saying a word of excuse, and spent ten years in Azkaban.

"..."

The old lady fell into subtle silence amidst the embarrassment.

The name Grindelwald was too famous for a wizard of her age.

When she was in school, the Daily Prophet often had magical photos of the old devil next to Alison all over the page: either wanted posters, or speeches to canvass for votes, or threatening remarks that Grindelwald had occupied the place.

Even though Britain did not suffer from the war that swept across Europe because of Professor Dumbledore, it was still frightening to watch.

So when Walburga heard that it was Miss Grindelwald who wanted the Black family, he subconsciously thought of her father, the old Grindelwald's behavior, and even prepared for the worst: this cold-blooded young lady would follow in her father's old path, gather forces and once again stir up confrontation and turmoil in the wizarding world.

The Black family now couldn't even guarantee its inheritance, and her fathers' ancestral home was about to be lost - Walburga had no hope that Sirius would be obedient and find a pure-blood witch, marry and have children to pass on the family line.

If the situation really gets bad, she won't ask for glory or profit, but only to save the now dwindling Black family and the life of Sirius, the willful and rebellious son.

As a result, because Sirius, the heir, was too unreliable, Miss Grindelwald never considered re-employing him and letting him carry out some confidential and dangerous missions.

It seemed as if he had obtained the security he had always dreamed of: with the name Grindelwald, and because of Harry and Miss Grindelwald, he had established a connection with Dumbledore's faction.

However, Walburga was in a complicated mood and couldn't be happy - after all, all this was based on the fact that Sirius was not even as reliable as a first-year wizard in Miss Grindelwald's eyes.

And the most important thing is that after Walburga compared the rebellious son whom he despised with the stubborn and brave yet humble, easy-going and likable Harry in his mind, he didn't want to refute this point.

Walburga didn't know what to say for a moment, so he sighed and gave a helpless smile.

"...Sirius...I'm so sorry to have embarrassed you."

Alison commented calmly.

"But he is indeed a typical Blake: he has a strong obsession with what he cares about, and is indifferent and arrogant about other things - he just pursues different things."

"Blood is such a strange thing. He wants to get away from his home so much, but his most obvious characteristics cannot escape the shadow of his home."

Mrs. Walburga smiled bitterly: "The Black family's ancestral stubbornness..."
