Mastering Lightning from Hogwarts

“I’m Harry, Harry Potter, are you Sirius Black? My godfather?” Harry looked at the unshaven uncle in front of him with some hesitation, the other party was far from the image of Sirius he had imagined.

In the photo Anduin gave him, Sirius was a young man who looked free and unrestrained. Logically speaking, the other party should be in his thirties now, but Black's state at this time, let alone thirty, people would believe him if he said he was forty or fifty.

“Harry!!” Sirius looked at Harry with a struggling expression, and couldn't help but step forward and hold the other's shoulders, “I'm sorry to you, and even more sorry to your parents, I am a sinner! I killed your family!”

Harry heard Sirius mention his family, and coupled with being infected by the other party's emotions, his eyes gradually turned red, and at the same time he decisively shook his head and said, “No! It’s not your fault, blame Peter Pettigrew, and Voldemort, the chief culprit!”

“Could… could it be that you are willing to forgive me?” Sirius looked at Harry with some disbelief.

“Ever since I knew the truth, I never thought of blaming their deaths on you. Uncle Wilson once taught me to look at the essence through the phenomenon. Your original approach was also out of good intentions. You didn't let down my parents, don't feel guilty because of other people's mistakes!”

Harry looked at Sirius with clear and firm eyes. Although it was his first meeting with the other party, he could feel the sincere emotions revealed by Black.

“Thank you! Thank you, Harry, thank you, Anduin!” For Sirius now, Harry’s simple words were simply the best medicine.

He had always felt extremely painful for indirectly causing the deaths of James and Lily, and even more ashamed to face his godson Harry.

The rationality and firmness shown by Harry instantly opened his heart, and suddenly this always strong old man seemed to have been poked in the softest part of his heart, and burst into tears on the spot.

Seeing Sirius suddenly burst into tears in front of him, Harry also felt very distressed. This was probably one of the few relatives he had in this world, and now he was tortured beyond recognition.

“Alright Black.” Anduin stepped forward and patted Sirius on the shoulder, “Don’t cry in front of the children, everything is developing in a good direction now, even for Harry’s sake, you have to cheer up quickly.”

“I understand, but I can’t help it, thank you Anduin, for bringing me such a big surprise.” Sirius wiped the tears from his face, and showed a long-lost smile.

“There’s another surprise waiting for you, the British Ministry of Magic has announced your innocence to the public and completely overturned your case, which means that you can now return to England!”

Seeing Sirius being able to cheer up again, Anduin was sincerely happy for him, so he revealed the news that the Ministry of Magic was about to release to him in advance.

The reason why the official only formally exonerated Sirius until now, can’t be blamed on the Ministry of Magic, mainly because the work of overturning the case also requires a lot of procedures, including sorting out all the evidence that can prove his innocence and announcing it to the public.

And the Ministry of Magic was too busy with the Silver Flash Bank and Voldemort's affairs some time ago, so it temporarily postponed it, after all, most of the senior officials of the Ministry of Magic knew the truth about Sirius.

Recently, they just freed up their hands, and the Ministry immediately arranged for people to deal with it, and it is expected that the announcement will be on the media in the next few days.

“Officially overturned the case?” Sirius was stunned when he heard the words, “Didn’t you say there were no clues about Peter Pettigrew yet, how could the Ministry of Magic agree to overturn the case?”

Since Sirius came to France, he has been acting like an ostrich in this manor, except for occasionally helping out at the Silver Flash Bank, he doesn't even know about the recent news about England published in the newspapers.

And Aselia and Anais were also instructed by Anduin not to tell him about this for the time being, so Sirius is still kept in the dark.

“Although Peter Pettigrew hasn’t been caught, Voldemort has indeed been captured by Uncle Wilson!” Harry said with a smile.

“What? Voldemort?” Sirius widened his eyes in disbelief, “What’s going on?”

“It’s a long story, let’s go in and talk slowly, it’s not good for the children to be out in the wind.” After saying that, Anduin led everyone back to the manor.

After entering the manor, after the descriptions and supplements of several young wizards, Sirius understood the whole story.

And Sirius couldn't help but sigh, he didn't expect so many major events to have happened in England during this period, even Voldemort was caught.

“So Voldemort is really dead this time?” Sirius looked at Anduin.

“I’ll tell you about this in detail later.” Anduin didn’t want too many people to know the truth about Voldemort for the time being, so as not to cause unnecessary panic, “Let’s talk about some immediate topics.”

After saying that, Anduin turned his head to look at several young wizards, “During your stay in France, you will all live here, and Anais will arrange your rooms later.”

“During your stay, you can move around the manor and the surrounding areas at will, and you can play whatever you want, just remember to say hello to the adults when you leave the manor.”

Then Anduin looked at Sirius again, “During this period, you, as the host, will accompany them to the surrounding area, it’s necessary to relax appropriately after a year of tension.”

“No problem!” Sirius was not as depressed as before, and then smiled and looked at Harry, “I have raised a few Rune Horses in the forest, tomorrow I will take you to ride them around, these Rune Horses can also fly.”

“Tomorrow won’t work.” Before several young wizards could cheer, Anduin interrupted, “I have already received a notice from the French Ministry of Magic when entering the country, tomorrow they have to go to the Ministry of Magic with Aselia to complete the entry procedures.”

Sirius nodded when he heard the words, “That’s okay, after going to the Ministry of Magic, I can take them to Saint-Pierre to play.”

“Saint-Pierre?” The young wizards muttered the name curiously.

“It’s like Hogsmeade in England, a pure wizarding village, and it’s also the most prosperous place in the French wizarding world, the French branch of Silver Flash Bank is also there, you will definitely like it there, French fashion and jewelry are very famous!” Sirius introduced to several people with great interest.

“Fashion? Jewelry?” Ginny’s eyes lit up with little stars, and then she couldn’t wait to look at Anduin.

“Buy whatever you want, take Hogg with you, he will pay the bill for you.” Anduin smiled indifferently.

Hearing Anduin’s words, several people cheered and screamed, but the expressions of Ron and the other three became more and more bitter. They were now extremely regretful. It would be better not to chase after them. Now they can spend money as they please, but they can only watch, which is even more uncomfortable than being grounded.

Then everyone enjoyed a sumptuous dinner together in the manor, and Anduin even personally cooked for everyone, which he hadn’t done in a long time.

And in this half-day of contact, everyone quickly became familiar with each other, not only with Sirius, Aselia and others, but also the relationship between several young wizards became closer.

When the night gradually deepened, the young wizards also went back to their rooms to rest early, the Weasley brothers also reluctantly returned to the Leona, and Sirius and Anduin reunited in the manor office.

“About Voldemort, are you still hiding something from me?” He had noticed some clues from the other party’s words before, and when he was alone with Anduin, Sirius had much less nonsense.

“Yes, Voldemort is not completely dead, this is a consensus I and Dumbledore have reached.” Anduin did not deny it, but did not say anything about Horcruxes.

“In other words, that guy is still at large?” Sirius was not surprised by this, he knew his opponent too well, but he still asked with great concern, “In that case, will Harry be in danger? He is Voldemort’s thorn in the side.”

“You guy, do you only know how to worry about Harry?” Anduin rolled his eyes, and then said calmly, “Don’t worry, I have an estimate of Voldemort’s current situation, he won’t jump out and cause trouble so easily.”

“But it’s too dangerous to just let him go, and there’s also Peter Pettigrew hiding in the dark!” When he mentioned this name again, a ball of anger ignited in Sirius’s eyes involuntarily.

“Nothing has happened yet, why are you in such a hurry?” Anduin found that since seeing Harry, Sirius gradually had a tendency to return to his former reckless self, which was both a good thing and a bit speechless.

“Then we can’t always be passive, can we? Aren’t you very powerful, after so many years, haven’t you invented anything that can find them?” Sirius frowned, since James and Lily had an accident, it was easy for him to think about things in a negative and extreme way.

“Big brother, I’m not a god.” Anduin smiled wryly, “How can there be such a magical thing, at least give me some clues to follow, I still have some clues about Voldemort, but Peter Pettigrew has disappeared for more than ten years, where do you want me to find him?”

But soon Anduin’s eyes changed, “But you reminded me of something, maybe I can study tracking in depth.”

“Oh? Can you lock down the location of Voldemort and Peter as soon as you research it?” Sirius asked.

“Where is such a thing?” Anduin couldn’t stand this guy who was like a novice in alchemy, “I’m talking about tracking, not prophecy, I might be able to develop a special tracking device, and then let Voldemort help us find Peter.”

“Ah?” Black didn’t understand, “Didn’t Voldemort escape? And why would he help you find Peter.”

“Can’t you catch him again if he escapes?” Anduin didn’t directly say that he had a Horcrux belonging to Voldemort in his hand, “You wouldn’t understand too much, in short, I will handle the affairs of Voldemort and Peter, but you have to return to England with me this time, if Voldemort takes action again, I need you to help protect Harry.”

“No problem!” When Harry was mentioned, Sirius became energetic, “What else do you need me to do?”

“Nothing else, you can accompany Harry and them to relax these days, but I may leave for a while in a while, I will also take Leona away, you remember to take care of those little ghosts for me.”

“Take Leona away? Are you going to fight?” Sirius seemed to recall something, and looked at Anduin with some hesitation, “Is there any trouble that requires me and Aselia to take action?”

Anduin shook his head lightly, “Don’t think so much, it’s not like every time Leona is dispatched is a war, and you can’t help with the battles that require me and her to participate in, don’t worry, I know what to do.”

“Okay.” Black nodded, then looked at the other party solemnly, “Anduin, you have helped me so much, although it’s a bit pretentious, I still have to say thank you again!”

“If you know it’s pretentious, don’t talk nonsense.” Anduin shook his head with a smile, “Friends don’t need so much politeness.”

Sirius heard the words and shook his head self-deprecatingly. After looking at the other party again, he left the room calmly.

And the next day, Harry and the other three followed Aselia and Sirius, and they finally saw the exotic customs of France.

In Harry’s opinion, the French wizards only left him with one impression, that is, they are very fond of beauty.

Anyway, the wizards they saw in Saint-Pierre Village were all dressed in colorful clothes, and the styles were rich and diverse.

Unlike the British wizarding world, most wizards tend to be simple and rigorous in color, and the styles of clothes are also more traditional. Anyway, the wizards Harry has seen are basically wearing plain wizard robes.

So here, several people were also eye-opening, especially Ginny, this little girl went crazy as soon as she got on the street, constantly shuttling through various clothing and jewelry stores.

Harry and Neville next to them suddenly became coolies who accompanied them shopping and helped carry bags, which made the two of them see for the first time how terrifying women are when shopping.

And Ginny really doesn’t know how to save money for Anduin, she basically takes whatever she likes, and doesn’t even ask the price, as if the money in her hand is not her own.

Of course, the money in her hand is indeed not her own.

In less than a day, Ginny made a name for herself in Saint-Pierre Village, and almost all the owners of the shops knew this extravagant lady.

And soon everyone found out that Ginny turned out to be the daughter of Anduin, the owner of Silver Flash Bank!

Suddenly everyone’s eyes on Ginny changed, Ginny walking on the street was like a car of Galleons in motion.

For this reason, the staff of those shops couldn’t help but come forward and actively serve Ginny and others, just hoping that she could visit their shop.
