[HP] Born Noble

Slytherin conduct four: plan before acting

Draco put down the quill, tapped his chin thoughtfully with his fingertips, and suddenly called out, "Larch!"

There was a slight explosion, and a house elf wearing a neat lace apron appeared out of thin air in the middle of the study, bowed deeply to Draco, and almost poked his long pointed nose on the ground, "Little Draco Master, Larch is always at your service."

"I want you to do something for me."

"Larch is waiting for the little master's orders." The elf's voice was trembling excitedly, but his behavior was not frivolous.

"Keep it absolutely confidential, and don't let anyone, including my father and mother, know about it!"

"Yes, Larch obeys the orders of the young master." Larch is Draco's exclusive elf, and for it, Draco's orders surpass the authority of Malfoy's master and wife to some extent.

Draco handed him the paper, "Help me buy the things on the paper."

Larch took the note and read it line by line. His protruding tennis eyes widened and he almost didn't fall out. The moment he put away the note, the elf's expression couldn't hide his disgust and rejection. He suddenly grabbed the ground with his head, "Bad Laqi, Laqi is a bad elf, a bad elf! Laqi cannot question the request of the little master, and must obey the order of the little master absolutely and unconditionally, bad elf, bad Laqi..."

"Stop!" Draco raised his voice. In fact, the disgust on his face was not much better than that of Larch, but after seeing the elf Larch's eyes expecting him to withdraw his life, he still gritted his teeth and insisted, "According to me buy!"

These words seemed to have an invisible magical power that completely crushed the spirit of the elf. Larch looked sad and desperate, and after silently hitting his head on the ground a few times, he responded cryingly, "Larch will According to the little master's instructions, Larch must be an excellent house elf, and a good elf should never question the master's orders, even if the little master wants Larch to buy those dirty, cheap, stupid and terrible Muggle clothes , even if he wants to discredit the ancient and noble Malfoy family..."

"Enough!" The hurricane over the Atlantic is not as dark as Draco's face, isn't it just a few Muggle clothes and items!There are quite a few black magic and rare potion materials on the note, which are extremely dangerous at first glance, and should never be provided to underage wizards.

"Bought it back, secret!" Draco waved his hand and threw his pocket money bag over, "Go!"

Larch, who had gone away like a concubine, Draco closed the ancient magic books spread out on his desk and put them back on the bookshelf, especially carefully rolled up a fragile ancient manuscript that seemed to be broken if touched. Tie it up and put it back in the drawer with the secret words.

Draco has a very, very important, and probably very dangerous, black art experiment to complete right now, which stems from the accident he encountered that day.

The rescue experiment that almost exhausted the mana that day made Draco lie in bed for five days, and then, as a blessing in disguise, he found that the mana in his body had become pure, although the power level was still at the child level-you know , under normal circumstances, wizards can only feel the increase or decrease of magic power, which is not difficult. With the growth of age, proper practice or taking potions, you can always achieve the different effects you want, but the purity of magic power is Naturally fixed, only affected by the genetic influence of both parents, is also one of the reasons for advocating pure blood.

Closer to home, Draco can't figure out what caused this 'unexpected joy' now, he has to look suspiciously at the torn manuscript left by his ancestors, but he is still not sure.Because during these five days, my father dug out a milky white, opaque egg fossil from the family collection, which was said to be a moonlight beast egg fossil and asked him to carry it with him at all times, saying that it had the effect of stabilizing magic power.And his godfather, Severus Snape, a well-known contemporary potion master who won the Medal of Merlin for his outstanding contribution to potion science before the age of 30, poured countless potions of unknown use and terrible taste into him. Potion.

Draco asked what it was, but the always stern Godfather criticized his IQ as a Hufflepuff Mandrake, described his behavior as a Gryffindor troll, and arranged to copy Slytherin Except for the homework of the code of conduct two hundred times, I didn't say a word.Draco could only guess from the long list of potion ingredients that his godfather handed to his father, those potions must be very, very rare, because potion masters would not specially give Malfoy masters such common ingredients as porcupine quills. under the list.

In the end, combining the above effects, his magic power showed the current change.

Purifying magic power and possessing powerful power - this temptation is too great, even with Draco's 24-year-old mature IQ, it is difficult to resist, as long as wizards, probably no one can resist.Therefore, Draco paid more attention to the unfinished manuscript left by his predecessors.However, this matter must be cautious, the composition of the godfather’s potion must be studied, and the function of the egg fossil also needs to be checked. Draco decided to take the cocoon and strip it step by step. After all, how many people died in the dark? In magic experiments, how many wizards have become lifelong squibs because of inadvertent experiments...

Draco Squib Malfoy

Draco shuddered, even as he grew older, the thought still made him shudder.

Draco's experiment requires a large amount of dangerous but necessary magic materials, but this is not something that can be accomplished overnight. The note that Draco just handed to Larch, in addition to buying a large amount of illegal materials, more It is to solve the worrying problem he is encountering right now.

Draco thought, besides what was necessary, he needed to talk to his father.

After dinner, Draco stood in front of the dark brown oak door of the main study. The family crest of the Malfoy family was embossed on the door. The legendary bald eagle stood proudly on the redbud vine, which meant that the study behind the oak door was Only the head of the Malfoy family can use it. In his previous life, Draco became the master of it when he was 16 years old. In this life, Draco sincerely hopes that his father can sit safely behind that black oak desk for a longer time. .

"Draco Malfoy." Draco said his name to the proud bird on the door, and the door swung open.

Lucius was looking at the income statement for this month's accounts of the Malfoy family property. Besides the affairs of the Ministry of Magic, he also had a large and ancient family business that required a lot of energy and personal time. However, for Malfoy, of course, family was always first.

"What's the matter, Draco?" Lucius put down his quill, his dragon being his pride.

Facing his father who had always doted on him, Draco was used to asking directly. "Dad, I think you can allow me to take some time to go out alone."

As soon as Lucius raised his eyebrows, he could understand the intention behind Draco's request after a little thought. To be honest, the accident that day frightened them all. Although Draco was strong and alert and won a lot of praise afterwards, but No doubt his little dragon should be terrified too.Oh, Muggleland, Mr. Malfoy cursed silently in his mind, this was the worst nightmare Malfoy could have imagined.

"Of course it's not a problem." Lucius smiled, and reached out to open the left drawer, "but why don't we use an easier method?" He took out a silver snake that fit Malfoy's taste very well from the drawer The cloak button, just finished, was handed to Draco, "Hold it whenever you want to go home, no matter where you are at the time."

——Standard Malfoy's way of solving problems!

Draco took the thing with both hands, it was perfect, no doubt about it, but it wasn't what he wanted, "Dad, it's not about getting lost. I'm not going to let myself be an idiot leaving Malfoy Manor, but... …" Draco looked up at his father seriously, and the following reason made him blush, "I need to have the experience and... courage to face a strange environment alone."

The corners of Lucius' ever-smiling [-]-degree mouth began to deform slightly.

Lucius' father died young, and his mother passed away when he was a child. May Merlin bless them. As the heir of a big family, Lucius has a deep understanding of the difficult growth path. Therefore, He also didn't want his little dragon under his wings to push himself too hard in a completely unnecessary situation, and Draco was so sensible now that even Narcissa felt worried and distressed.

"Draco, I don't want the following words to fuel your arrogance or to go to your unworldly mind, but I must admit, Draco, you are a very good heir, enough to make me and your mother Proud of you, of course, Malfoy will always be strict with his children and grandchildren, I just want you to remember that you just finished your ninth birthday party two weeks ago, and the journey of wizards should generally be graduated at Hogwarts Think about it later."

"Dad, you're thinking too far." Draco was very confused. What sentence made his father mistakenly think that he was going to travel? "Maybe I just need to go to Diagon Alley to buy two suitable books anytime, anywhere, or go to Hogsmeade's joke shop to see the latest works, or visit friends and godfathers. I ask because I'm afraid you will worry. Besides , you just gave me a directional door key, with this there will be no problems."

Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade?

Visiting friends?

If that was all it was, Lucius saw no reason for Draco to make the request.If he likes to go out, he can even go shopping with his mother every day, or attend a tea party; but the same, Lucius can't find any reason not to agree.

Considering Draco's daily behavior and the childish, curious, and reckless thoughts that may exist at his age, Lucius decided to make a condition, "Let Larch follow."

Draco tried his best to avoid non-Malfoy expressions on his face, he just needed to get a time to go out alone, not to get some prohibited items, he raised his hand and swore, "Dad, I use Malfoy I'll never go to Knockturn Alley or anything like that until you lead me yourself, and you really don't need to send an elf with you at all times, as if I were an unweaned child."

Draco rested his chin on his fingers and gave his father a standard Malfoy smile. Of course, if he really needed anything 'not so ordinary' in his future experiments, he would naturally let Larch buy it Everything he needed - oh, how could he allow his nine-year-old self to risk himself, that was so un-Slytherin.

Then, it's all done!

After taking a shower at night, Lucius went directly to the bedroom next to his own, which was Mrs. Malfoy's bedroom. He stood behind Narcissa, helped her unbutton the pearl necklace with one hand, put his arm around his wife's waist, and bowed his head. Smelling the fragrance of his wife deeply, "Cissy, you are right, a son who is too smart and sensible will make us feel less fulfilled as parents."

Narcissa smiled gracefully, touched Lucius' hand on her shoulder, "Then maybe...we should consider having another daughter?"

-

In the sun-filled living room, Draco's soft, short, light-blonde hair was as close as ever to his ears, and his delicate skin showed an ivory white luster in the sun, which matched the dragon-shaped bracelet on his wrist.The light gray wizard robe perfectly contrasted the blue in his eyes, the little jeweled snake brooch on the collar kept twisting and twisting to pose one after another, Draco's snow white with silver gray The lace silk shirt brought him a touch of leisure in the afternoon.

Draco was holding an old copy of "Magic Circle: The Lost Treasure" with big gilt letters on the cover, and occasionally raised his head and smiled at his mother who was presiding over the lady's afternoon tea party in the rose garden not far away. Nodding, occasionally, he can also receive some admiration and praise from the eyes of those dignified ladies.

If they knew what he was reading at this very moment, Draco thought maliciously looking at the elegant ladies over there, how many people would need smelling salts because they passed out?Anyway, Larch had already collapsed, Draco stared at the pseudo-magic circle book in his hand, gritted his teeth bitterly - he was going too.

It is undeniable that after this rebirth, Draco learned a lot of knowledge that he had neglected in his previous life, such as ancient swordsmanship, ancient language, and the cold alchemy subject. He even planned to start research on the wonderful relationship between soul and magic power , That requires a lot of black magic knowledge and related advanced potion research.But, here, Draco clutching the enchanted cover of The Wonderful World Without Wands in his hand - Muggle literacy - is showing Draco a little bit of what Muggles are all about. Plant two wheels that are aligned in a straight line and can take people running.

Merlin!

Draco couldn't imagine that after he was dead and reborn, he would still need tutoring in Muggle studies!And the culprit of all of this that made him suffer so much was that he blurted out a promise to celebrate that scar's birthday that day like Gryffindor possessed him!

Draco closed his eyes and took a deep breath, making sure that he wouldn't look hideous. Slytherins don't make promises easily, but once they make a promise, they will keep it.This is also the code of conduct for a nobleman, he is no longer the age to take talking as a joke.

That 'mirror of longing' was confiscated by Lucius as a dangerous item. Even if it was still in his hands, Draco didn't want to use it again. He subconsciously refused to think deeply about the reasons behind the accident that day.

Well, in this way, in order to fulfill his promise smoothly, he, Malfoy, who is always noble and advocating pure blood, can only choose to dress himself as a Muggle, walk through Muggle London, and use Muggle methods Meet Harry - if he remembers correctly, the area where Potter lives is being watched by Dumbledore. No matter in the past or present, Draco hates the half-moon glasses that the old madman seems to be everywhere. The only difference is , In the previous life, it was contempt, but now it is defense.

To sum up, Draco needed Muggle clothes, Muggle money, Muggle maps, and even an understanding of how to use Muggle ways to get to a place that was miles away from central London.And all of these, including the permission he got from his father to go out alone, are just the preparations before departure, and now he has to put down the urgent research on the subject of magic power purification at hand, and consider preparing a gift for that sloppy scar - Oh, of course it's very important, Malfoy never does things that are rude - gifts, it's about status.
