Chapter 8: Slytherins' prejudice

Slytherin College has always been adhering to the principle of selecting students based on the principle of valuing the best over the many, and emphasizing quality over quantity. Almost every year, the number of new students in Slytherin is the bottom one among the four colleges.But at the beginning, everyone in the Snake Court didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

But over time, the tragic birth rate of pure-blood nobles and some pure-blood wizards choosing Ravenclaw College kept the Slytherin freshmen for several years in single digits. The only portrait of Salazar Slytherin in the cellar talked all night by candlelight, and the next day the haggard dean came to the cellar with the sorting hat on.

The sorting hat got a new Slytherin sorting standard-if there are particularly outstanding mixed-race students, they can also be sorted into Slytherin, but the elders within three generations must be pure-blooded, regardless of Muggle-born wizards. So good, not even Slytherin.

The circle of nobles is so big, and everyone has heard about the ups and downs.This caused the branch to form groups in twos and threes within a day.

And this year's freshman is an auspicious nineteenth day, which means that when the class is divided into groups, no matter whether it is a group of two or three, one person will be alone.

And this Lone Ranger, who is single in class and out of class, is a mixed race and the only male heir of an ancient wizard family.

Shani Black.

He is the Muggle bastard son of Cygnus Black.Cygnus Black is the father of Narcissa Malfoy, Bellatrix Lestrange and Andromeda Tonks.He is also the younger brother of Sirius Black's mother, Walburga Black, and the cousin of his father, Orion Black.

Speaking of which, he is also a rising star, but the sectarianism of the wizard nobles is too serious, and the eternally pure Black family has long since fallen, and the only male heir has long been delisted and locked up in Azka. Ban, maybe you won't even think about it in this life; and the married daughters have already changed their surnames—not to mention, the current head of the family is a mixed race.

The nobles would rather think that magical creatures who have no blood relationship with wizards but are born with magical powers are more worthy of respect than pure-blood wizards, and they are unwilling to admit half-blood wizards who have inherited half of their blood.And that's not to mention the Muggle-born wizards, who were scornfully called "Mudbloods" by the nobles.

However, there are not no half-blood wizards who have made great achievements. One of the most famous wizards is the youngest potions master in the past century, and also the youngest head of Slytherin, Severus Snape.

Slytherins are people of the moment, which means they are people of power.This half-blood wizard who was born in Prince, an ancient potion family, has won the recognition of the entire Hogwarts school and the entire aristocratic circle through his strength.

Needless to say in school, if you want to get a good job, you must have NEWT Potions grades, so the grades of the main subject Potions in grades one to seven are in the hands of the Potions Master.As for the aristocratic circle, not to mention that [-]% of the aristocratic children are in Slytherin. With his title of potion master alone, the nobles who pursue nobility and elegance all their lives are too late to pursue him-the beauty potion produced by the potion master is worth a thousand dollars. Hard to find!After all, Professor Snape himself is not willing to make these boring potions developed by boring people in his opinion. Except for his good friend Malfoy's family who can get a long-term supply, other noble families want to get the potions produced by potion masters. The beauty potion can only wait until Professor Snape is really bored or needs to buy rare potion materials and lacks money.

In addition to Severus Snape, there are two famous half-blood wizards, one is the mysterious man Voldemort who can stop children from crying at night, and the other is Harry Potter who defeated Voldemort.But this is not their home time, let's skip it for now.

So when Shani Black, who first went to Gringotts in Diagon Alley to open an ancient family vault with his father's relics, appeared, he was highly valued by the goblins.Once the blood relationship with the existing descendants of the Black family was confirmed, all the property of the Black family was transferred to him under the notarization of the Ministry of Magic.

It is said that Mrs. Black in that old house also acquiesced in this matter.Interesting people speculate that it is not only because the child has moved into Black's old house, but also the child of her own brother and the sole heir of the Black family.

Narcissa Malfoy, who no longer belongs to the eternally pure Black family and is the only free one, kept silent about everything except going to Gringotts to verify the blood magic and sign.The two Blacks in the prison didn't know it.

Only a few people in the know know that Shani Black almost never got a letter from Hogwarts.Because of the strange phenomenon since he was a child, he was going to immigrate to the United States from England with his married mother, but their flight was suddenly delayed, and because of this, Black received a notice from Hogwarts.

After all, after crossing the Atlantic Ocean, European magic schools are beyond the reach of young wizards in America.

In the end, Shani decided to come to Hogwarts to study, and was assigned to Slytherin, while his mother went to the United States, and they will be reunited during the holiday.

As for the above, Triton was completely unaware, let alone that he had been targeted by a classmate in his grade who longed for friendship because he was rejected because of his mixed race.

So, at breakfast time, Shani Black happened to see Triton Winter who was using a special Muggle pen.Shani, who has been portrayed by the family's ancestors during the holidays as a house-elf and supplemented the genealogy of various families in the aristocratic circle, has never seen the surname Winter, so he wishfully believes that Triton Winter is also a half-breed from the Muggle world.

Since returning to the wizarding world, Shani has not held a banquet, nor has he been invited to other noble banquets. Therefore, in the case of odd numbers this year, Shani is a single dormitory.He was very ill-informed, so he didn't know this open secret that the other three Hogwarts students didn't know but kept secret in Slytherin--Triton Winter appeared in the first time in 300 years. The sea mermaid in the wizarding world is the first sea mermaid in the history of Hogwarts.

The wizarding world only has the ancient legend of the mermaid, and they don't know much about this group. Apart from some simple common sense, the most important thing that they are most concerned about is: the mermaid is difficult to reproduce, so its race The characteristics are extremely domineering, once the conception is successful, all offspring will be pure sea mermaids.That is to say, in the world of magical creatures, the only one who is eternally pure is the sea mermaid.

Comparing the zero birth rate of the pure blood wizards for more than ten years with the zero birth rate of the sea mermaids for hundreds of years, the pure blood wizards unilaterally cherish each other with the sea mermaids. .

Shani’s childhood experience was somewhat similar to Harry’s, except that his mother loved him very much, so apart from having no playmates for more than a week in his childhood—because he would have some visions every time he was emotional when he was young—this For one thing, he was much happier than Harry.

But this time he thought he had returned to the right ethnic group, but he was despised because of his mother's Muggle status.In addition, when he was sorted, he chose Slytherin, who was taught by his grandmother and house elves in the old house, and his life at Hogwarts was even more difficult.He thought more than once that it would be great if he had chosen Gryffindor.

So, when he saw that there was a half-breed like him among the freshmen, don't mention how excited he was, which made him subconsciously ignore that the person talking to that "half-breed" was actually his relative (Draco was Shani's nephew), heir to the Malfoy family.

After class that day, Shani was overjoyed to see Cui who was alone.The ignorant is fearless, he didn't think about it, and almost immediately followed Triton when he saw Triton alone.

Triton went to the lake to send letters to his uncle.Although he could touch the Black Lake in the dormitory, the weather was fine today, so he wanted to go out for a walk.

Originally he invited Draco to come with him, but his mother seemed to have sent him a package. Draco, who was eager for the package, apologized to Triton when he knew that he could handle it alone, and hurried back to the dormitory after class.

That's why Shani was able to catch the little sea mermaid alone, so Triton was intercepted on the way back to the castle after using the five ghosts transport technique to get the little ghost to deliver a letter to his uncle.

"Hello, what's the matter?" Triton looked suspiciously at the dark gray-haired boy who seemed to be a new Slytherin in front of him, and asked when he saw that he stopped him but blushed and didn't make a sound.

"I, my name is Shani Black, please, please, are you, are you from the Muggle world too?"

"Nice to meet you, my name is Triton Winter." The boy with black eyes like the people in his hometown made Triton have a lot of affection, and he has been listening to him patiently, but the boy mentioned a person he had never heard of. noun. "But I'm sorry, what is the Muggle world?"

Hearing what Triton said, Shani couldn't help but be more sure that Triton came from the Muggle world. "The Muggle world is the world of ordinary people who don't know magic. Wizards call them Muggles for ordinary people who don't know magic. I used to live in the Muggle world, and my mother is a Muggle."

Triton faintly felt that the word "Muggle" implied a contemptuous meaning, but if it is strictly counted, his brothers really don't know magic.So he nodded: "Yes, I'm from the Muggle world."

"Because I have seen you use a pen." Seeing that Triton was so honest, Shani was a little embarrassed: "Then, are you willing to be my friend?"

"Of course, we can get along well!"

Shani got his wish, and on the way back to the castle for lunch, he seemed to open up a conversation box, telling all his experiences after he was recognized by the Black family.

"Your experience is similar to that of Harry—I mean Potter, you two are quite similar." After Triton said Harry's name casually, seeing Shani's surprised eyes, he felt a little inappropriate, and quickly changed his words.

Shani didn't think much about it, but was surprised and Triton's understanding of the savior of the wizarding world. You know, in the eyes of others, the savior is quite mysterious.He disappeared from the public eye after defeating the big devil You-Know-Who at the age of one, and it is said that he lived a princely life with his Muggle relatives.But Triton said that the experiences of the two of them are very similar... However, this is not his business, he dare not be too high on someone like the savior, he thinks Triton is very good! "Oh, he, it is said that he is the godson of one of my brothers, but my brother has gone to Azkaban."

Of course, Triton didn't know what Azkaban was, and Shani, who had attended an intensive cram school and had a certain understanding of the wizarding world, immediately stepped forward to explain to him the prison of the wizarding world.

"So, I am my father's illegitimate child. Although Aunt Walburga didn't have a good look at me, she still cared about me. You should know that one of her sons disappeared, and the other was imprisoned. After her death, all but one The old house elf is very lonely except for company." Shani saw that Triton listened intently, and quickly said: "My own father's house has been sold, but as the sole heir of the whole family, I , all the properties are in my name, including the old house of Black that has been lived by the owner of the Black family. My half-sister is also my guardian as my guardian. All property except living expenses is only I can only use it when I am an adult. Because my sister also has a family, I live in Black's old house."

Triton listened with relish, and hurriedly asked: "And then?"

"Her portrait was hanging on the porch after entering the door. I was the only one with the key to go in. Suddenly, the curtains that were eaten by insects and full of wormhole mold opened automatically. Her portrait is dirty. , At that time, I didn’t know that the portraits in the wizarding world could speak, so I was shocked when she spoke. She cursed me for a long time, and then she didn’t speak.” Shani thought of the first time he entered Grimaud I still have lingering fears when I was at NO.12 in the square. "Although they both ignored me at first, this house is the place where I live, and I really can't stand this kind of mess, and people from the Muggle home improvement company can't get in, so I have to learn housework magic by myself Come clean."

"In my opinion, the portraits of ancestors are the face of a family. Although no one visits the house and I am the only one in the family, I must be responsible for obtaining such a large fortune." Shani said on his face. He has a maturity that is not suitable for his age, which makes Triton stare at him all the time, and thinks in his heart. "I wiped all the portraits clean. In the beginning every painting was screaming at me half-breed not to touch them, but they were wizards from old families, and they used to be very decent people, all Later, all the portraits were wiped clean by me willingly. Then, my miserable days came, and all the ancestors began to force me to learn various things, let me revive the eternally pure Black family."

"It's not worrying that the ancestors of the wizarding world have become portraits. It's better for us to be sea people. The ancestors have traveled all over the world. I haven't seen my grandparents yet, but they care about me very much. , keep sending me all kinds of things.” Triton sighed, it’s true that every family knows everything.

Shani nodded in agreement, "My family also loves me very much. Although I had many weird phenomena when I was a child, and others were afraid of me, they thought I was a superman—wait a minute!" The gray-haired boy suddenly exclaimed , "What do you say you are? Sea mermaid?!"

"Yeah..." Cui Dun lost his feelings for a moment, and subconsciously talked about his own life experience. Now he remembered the misunderstanding of the world about the sea mermaid, and couldn't help pinching his sleeves and looking at Shani, feeling uneasy. Watching his ever-changing expression.

"I thought, I thought you were also a half-blood wizard..." Shani said hesitantly, but after thinking about it, his original purpose was to make a friend. If a half-blood wizard were to be a half-blood wizard, the gap between them would be less .Now that they have made friends, they can still talk like this. Although the new friend is not a human being, he thinks it is nothing. Instead, he asked excitedly: "But what is a sea mermaid? I only know that it is an ancient magical creature. group."

Seeing that Shani readily accepted his identity, Triton was extremely happy.

They chatted very happily. The long road from the lake to the castle was almost over, and both of them still had something to say, but they made an appointment to have classes together in the afternoon.As soon as they entered the foyer, they met two students who were wearing the golden Lion Academy badge on a red background.

The four of them froze for a moment, looked up at each other, and passed by without changing their footsteps.

Triton Feiyang's mood suddenly fell silent.

That's Harry and Weasley.

Little Theater, Triton's Name

Cui Dun's Chinese name, that is, the name on the household registration book is Dong Cui. When his mother was alive, the head of the household was Dong Yue.Later, Dong Yue passed away, and Dong Cui's household registration was transferred to his uncle Dong Zhi's name.Later, during the winter solstice, I immigrated overseas (...firstly, because the water quality in the country was getting worse during the period of economic development, and it was very troublesome to cover up and change the age, and secondly, because my younger sister had passed away), Dongcui did not emigrate with her in order to keep her mother in mind. I became the head of the household on the account book.

Although he did not immigrate, Dong Cui applied for citizenship with another identity in Lebanon on a whim, which is "dual citizenship".

This requires an English name, the surname is easy to handle, following the uncle, from the English "winter" of "冬" to "Winter" (...this is very convenient...); they have thought about the name for a long time (... ...Actually, I thought about it for a long time...) and decided to use the name "Triton", the son of the Greek god of the sea, Poseidon.

The pronunciation of "Triton" is "Triton" and "Triton". "Triton" is similar to his original name, and finally he was called "Triton Winter". (...What a bitter tear.)

As for why the magical creatures recognized by the European wizarding community have the Hukou of Great China... Maybe it's just because they were born in the South China Sea.

The author has something to say: 7.26-I didn't plan to write about Shani's long background, but as I wrote it... I couldn't stop the car.

It's not bad to be a sideshow, hehe.
