The lobby of Oude's old house——
"Alyssa Shafiq?"
Enid came to visit the next day, but she took Alyssa with her.
"Just call me Alyssa, I no longer have the surname Shafiq."
When Alyssa left the Shafik family's three-tier enterprise and founded the Alyssa family, she also expressed her attitude and became a member of Dumbledore's side. However, during this period, she has been keeping a low profile, like It's observing...
"Uh-huh." Bree sat on the sofa and raised his eyebrows slightly, looking a little lazy. Today he was originally planning to go to Hogsmeade Village with Tom and Ver, because the Fantasy Game World Cup requires other forces. To participate, Oude wants official recognition, while the Ministry of Magic needs a name to participate and show his reputation.
We hit it off right away, and regardless of any sordidness in the past, the cooperation will continue.
It's a pity that Tom kept Bree in the manor because he just had a vacation and should rest. Bree was free and he didn't really want to fight and talk nonsense with those people from the Ministry of Magic.
"Please take a seat, Alyssa, and Enid."
The elves served black tea to Enid and Alyssa, and soon desserts were served.
Bree said nothing, holding the notes and slowly turning them over.
Enid smiled softly and said, "Lord Oude, I want to go see the garden."
"Yeah." Bree nodded, and Enid quickly stood up and went out.
Alyssa took a sip of tea and then said: "Long time no see, Ode."
Alyssa's eyes were full of intense inquiry, but she would not stare at Bree impolitely to avoid making Bree unhappy.
Bree has grown so fast over the years that she was caught off guard. In the beginning, Bree was just a character who failed to be attracted by purebloods. In the eyes of purebloods, she was no longer worth making friends with. But later... she became the most... The character who was best not to be messed with has now become a character who needs to be extremely pleased with.
The Oude family, think about how much Alyssa has paid to withstand the pressure of the Shafiq family and achieve her current achievements.
"I hope to cooperate with you. Although I am no longer Shafiq, I think we can continue to trade."
Alyssa calmly and rationally took out a contract.
"I understand that Oude is not short of money now...but if you want to keep your wealth, you need a lot of things."
"Strong strength, cooperative allies..."
"This is an alliance contract..."
"I refuse." Brie interrupted Shafiq before she could finish.
Alyssa paused with her outstretched hand, and then slowly took it back for a long time. She frowned and said, "Alyssa's choice is not just Oded."
"You can go to Dumbledore. Your goal is to become the new pureblood after the turmoil, and I don't think taking sides is a good habit." What Oded needs is absolute neutrality and strength.
"Sorry, it seems that I have disturbed you today." Alyssa put the contract away, pursed her lips and said: "Maybe you... you have your own ideas, but I want to tell you that the pure-blood family is not what you think. So simple... Again, sorry, I can't tell you this part, not even if we were allies."
A trace of fear flashed in Alyssa's eyes, and she exhaled before continuing: "Farewell, Oded."
Alyssa's feet paused as she slowly stepped out. She turned her back to Bree, took a deep breath, and whispered: "Be careful with the purebloods, Oded, they allowed me to leave, and you were an accident. , they are targeting you..."
"It's a deal, a fair deal."
Enid's eyes were firm, but upon closer inspection, she seemed to be trying to hide her panic.
"The appearance of the fantasy game attracted their attention. Of course, a family with wealth is not terrible. For a pure-blood family that has survived hundreds or thousands of years, it is easy to destroy."
"You are lucky...the mysterious man and the Forbidden Forest Contract have protected you." Alyssa couldn't help but sigh at Brie's good luck, and continued: "Someone was calling the mysterious man, and the mysterious man responded, and because of the special nature of the Forbidden Forest Contract , the purebloods decided to continue to support the mysterious man, and you, they will wait until you leave Hogwarts completely before they attack you."
"You have to be patient now. They can still tolerate a fantasy game for a while."
"It's good to have a sharp knife, otherwise you will hurt yourself..." Alyssa stared at Bree and said complicatedly: "This is no longer a little snake's game."
"How are they going to deal with Oude?" Bree looked at Alyssa. He didn't know the real pure-blood family, and what they showed to the outside world was probably what they wanted to show.
"At the Fantasy Game World Cup, a large number of spectators were massacred, and the Fantasy Game World Cup was exposed to the eyes of Muggles..."
Alyssa did not continue talking and quickly left Oude's old house, and Enid also walked in not long after.
"Lord Oude, Alyssa is not a woman who is willing to be inferior to others. You may not know that she fought for her marriage to Bernard by herself, but...she personally used Bernard in exchange for a proof Your own opportunities and allies are sometimes more dangerous than your enemies."
Enid didn't know what Alyssa and Bree said. She could only rely on her own guesses. At this moment, she seemed to think of something again, and immediately smiled and said: "I am different, I choose to follow Oude , if possible, I can also change my surname to Oude, Enid Oude sounds very nice."
Enid's eyes flickered as she thought about the news she heard from the flower elf.
Since a little girl dares to say, she has nothing to fear. Anyway, as a flower elf bloodline, following Bree is the wisest choice for her.
"Allies are indeed unreliable." So Alyssa chose to trade, knowing that Bree had her own persistence.
"What do you think a real pure-blood family is like, Enid?" Bree put the notes away.
"Real pure bloods... have a higher reputation in the wizarding world. They have some inheritance from their own families, and many of them are natural allies, or relatives."
"It is also in the past few years that pure bloods have begun to marry into some ordinary wizarding families."
Enid narrowed her eyes and said, "Alyssa said something different?"
"I am not the heir of the Child family and cannot hear these secrets."
Bri nodded and said softly: "How can a family that has been passed down for thousands of years have no secrets?"
"Let's go to Hogsmeade." Bree stood up and said, "The Pig's Head Bar."
Soon, the notes were flipped and a magic circle appeared.
Although the portkey had been arranged in Hogsmeade, Bree still didn't like such inconsiderate magic.
When Bree and Enid arrived in Hogsmeade, they walked to the Pig's Head pub.
"Oh, welcome, little one." Aberforth's eyes were fixed on Bree as soon as he stepped into the bar.
"I want to find Dumbledore, please."
After taking Enid to sit at the wine table, Bree added: "Two glasses of butterbeer, thank you."
"Hmph." Aberforth snorted, but did not refuse and quickly brought the beer.
"Hi, are you Mr. Bree Old?" A female Auror holding a gift box walked up to Bree and asked curiously: "I am Bertha Jorkins, hello!"
The female Auror was a little embarrassed, but she was so excited that she forgot all about it.
"I, I am a loyal fan of Fantasy Games. I am lucky enough to pass the promotion competition this time and will soon participate in the Fantasy Games World Cup!" Bertha Jorkins carefully opened the gift box and saw that it was full of future Fantasy Games. Unopened card package.
"Can I open the card next to you, please!" Bertha Jorkins blushed and sat carefully next to Bree.
Brie smiled gently. He would naturally not dampen the customer's enthusiasm. This box would bring in a lot of money. This girl probably spent most of this month's salary on it.
"Hiss..." When a pack of cards was opened, Bertha Jorkins suddenly exclaimed: "Wow!"
"Bang..." There was a sound of seats colliding across from Bree's wine table, obviously frightened by Bertha Jorkins' behavior.
"Sorry, sorry!" Bertha Jorkins stood up quickly and apologized sheepishly to the man in a black robe and hood, only showing his pale chin.
The man pressed the brim of his hat, said nothing, and just waved his hand.
Bree felt a killing intent.
Enid also looked at Bree cautiously.
Brie shook her head slightly, the other party hadn't made a move yet.
"It's Principal Delise Devante. This is an amazing person. It's a high-level card... what's recorded is that... she's back to her original state. That's great!" Bertha Jorkins' face turned red with excitement as she held the card. , extremely excited.
"My dream is to become an excellent doctor, but... I failed. Finally, thanks to the relationship between my father and Mr. Barty, I entered the Ministry of Magic and became an Auror."
Bertha Jorkins was not at all shy about this.
"Alas..." She sighed, and then began to tear the card package expectantly.
When all the card packets were torn, she stood up with a happy face.
"I have to go buy some more." She asked Bree expectantly: "Will you stay for a while?"
"Ahem, I think he will stay a little longer." Dumbledore came.
Bertha Jorkins looked at Dumbledore, who was a little nervous, and hurriedly left the Hog's Head pub.
"I think it's because of Cornelius." Dumbledore spread his hands helplessly and said humorously, "He always talks bad about me in front of these children."
When Enid saw Dumbledore arriving, she stood up consciously and sat on the other side, right in front of the young man in black robe.
"What would you like to drink?" Aberforth walked over and said coldly.
"Oh, just lemonade, more sugar, thank you." Dumbledore sat down with a smile.
At this time, the young man in black robe also stood up and hurriedly walked out of the Pig Head Bar.
"Enid, go and take a look." A paper crane flew out of Brie's notes and landed on Enid's shoulder. After hearing the words, Enid stood up and followed the young man carefully.
Dumbledore narrowed his eyes and smiled meaningfully.
"what have you found?"
"Just a guy who wants to attack my guest."
Not long ago, Alyssa said that the pureblood wanted to attack Bree's guests at the Fantasy Game World Cup, which made Bree feel angry. Now, the guy at the Pig Head Bar is blatantly attacking the lone guests first. If you start, aren't you just stirring up trouble?
"Oh..." Dumbledore said, not intending to get involved in this matter. He was just curious about what made Bree go to him.
Bree waved her hand, placing a barrier around it.
"It's about pure blood." Since pure blood wants him to conflict with Dumbledore, then he will let Dumbledore conflict with pure blood.
Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that Alyssa is doing things for Dumbledore and wants to help Dumbledore win over her.
"Pure blood?" Dumbledore's squinted eyes slowly opened, and there was a hint of sharpness in the blue eyes.
Bree slowly took out a VIP invitation letter and pushed it to Dumbledore's hand.
"There are unlimited and free freshly made desserts in the VIP box."
"Whoosh!" Dumbledore put the invitation away instantly.
"Oh, thank you. I'm just about to go out for the holidays. The Fantasy Game World Cup is a good place to go." Dumbledore touched his beard and smiled.
"Do you know about real pure blood?" Bree looked at Dumbledore and asked what she was confused about.
"Real pureblood?"
Dumbledore's hand stroking his beard paused.
He sighed: "I didn't expect that you would already be exposed to this."
"Dumbledore is also a pure blood, a very ancient pure blood." Bree frowned: "But you are not like that group of pure blood families."
"Dang!" Aberforth walked through the barrier and brought up two glasses of lemonade.
"Charge it to Dumbledore's account." After saying that, he glared at Dumbledore and walked away.
"It seems that your relationship has not eased much because of Ariana, Professor Dumbledore."
Dumbledore smiled and shook his head.
"No, in fact Aberforth didn't pay attention to me at all before. This is thanks to you, Oded."
Dumbledore took a sip of lemonade, smiled contentedly, and then looked at Bree calmly.
"Actually, the real purebloods are a group of people who occupy most of the resources but contribute less and less to the wizarding world."
"As time goes by, they will become more and more stingy about sharing the world with other wizards, oppression will be born, and rule will be restarted; we all know that the wizarding world is so big, its resources are limited, and human greed is unlimited. of."
Dumbledore looked at Bree and said seriously: "Do you think you are greedy?"
"Of course... I am greedy, and so are you, and everyone is." Brie does not deny this, because greed is human nature.
"Oh?" Dumbledore nodded and didn't say any more, and Bree didn't ask any more questions.
"Buzzing..." Bree's notes began to glow slightly.
"See you next time, Professor Dumbledore." Bree stood up and was about to leave.
"We are not enemies, Oded." Dumbledore also stood up and narrowed his eyes at Bree who came to the door.
After hearing this, Brie opened the note and quickly left under the magic circle.
"This is a very ancient magic. Hogwarts has no conditions to block it. It seems...it comes from Ms. Ravenclaw." Dumbledore blinked and finally understood why Bree could be in Hogwarts. It's elusive.
