Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

His eyes turned to the man next to Draco Malfoy.

The same platinum blond hair, the same arrogant expression.

He held an ornate cane in his hand and looked more like a nobleman than a wizard.

Of course he knew who it was, because Snape had mentioned it to him not long ago - Lucius Malfoy, the governor of Hogwarts and the father of Draco Malfoy.

At this time, the father and son were standing in a corner outside the castle gate, seemingly talking about something.

And at this moment, they seemed to have seen Ryan and the others.

Draco Malfoy's expression changed slightly after seeing Ryan - and this change was obviously noticed by Lucius Malfoy.

He seemed to ask Draco in a low voice, and then walked over with his son.

"Draco, I told you to have some manners..."

As they got closer, Ryan could even hear Lucius' voice.

"Maybe you should introduce them to me."

Chapter 47 Justice will grow old, but there will always be successors

Lucius Malfoy was an elegant, handsome, and noble man—at least in appearance.

He has platinum blond hair, a tall and slender body, and his tone and behavior are very elegant.

But Ryan could almost see at a glance the arrogance and malice hidden beneath the wizard's elegant appearance.

"Oh, needless to say—the red hair, and the robe..."

He glanced at Ron, not trying to hide the disdain in his tone.

"You must be a Weasley."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Harry and Ryan again: "As for you... Harry Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived!"

His eyes seemed sharp and complex: "You have a great reputation, but you seem a little fragile."

He mocked Harry's appearance - having lost his parents at a young age and growing up in his aunt's house, he was indeed somewhat stunted.

As for the last moment, he looked at Ryan.

"And... Mr. Elias, I've been hearing your name a lot lately."

"Headmaster Dumbledore obviously likes you. I mean—he's on your side...isn't he?"

He said so.

Ryan just shrugged in response to his words.

"You are quite right, Mr. Malfoy."

Lucius might just think of him as a little wizard, but Ryan had already heard something from Lucius' words.

He remembered Snape saying that today the school board would discuss with Dumbledore what happened the night before.

And it is obvious...the members of the board of directors did not get any satisfactory results.

"In fact, I think that as Headmaster Dumbledore, he should like all the young wizards in Hogwarts and stand on the side of justice."

"And justice will prevail, won't it?"

he said calmly.

Then, Lucius's expression became a little gloomy.

"justice?"

He looked at Ryan gloomily, and said in a faint voice: "Yes, what a good word - it's just a little too simple... Mr. Elias, the great Albus Dumbledore is over 100 years old."

His words became more forceful and threatening. "People are worried about how long he can live, and you... Mr. Ryan Elias, you are still so young that you don't even know the meaning of the word 'pure blood'..."

"But it's okay, you have a long future ahead of you - you'll find out."

The threat in these words is almost obvious.

justice?

Justice grows old, but you are young.

But after hearing Lucius's words, Ryan looked at him deeply.

"of course."

Then Ryan grinned.

"what?"

Lucius was a little stunned - he certainly didn't expect Ryan to react like this.

But Ryan didn't look at him again, he just looked at Draco Malfoy.

Instead, he felt relieved at this moment because his previous guess was correct.

Draco Malfoy is indeed a bad guy with a bad character, but the source of this is his family, the so-called pure blood and authority.

Look at his father, he actually threatened an eleven-year-old wizard like that... Ryan was speechless.

Fortunately, judging by the current situation, Hogwarts and the wizarding world have not yet completely become a hotbed of pure blood and authority.

Albus Dumbledore, and the rest of the right people, still ran Hogwarts and the wizarding world, and they kept people like Lucius in check.

This is good.

As for Lucius's words, Ryan couldn't help but recall Gryffindor.

That followed the first few years of the Big Four.

During those years, Ryan watched Gryffindor's battles against dark wizards countless times.

But time and time again - the Dark wizards always appear again.

"There are endless dark wizards. Perhaps you should relax a little, teacher."

Ryan had also advised Gryffindor in the same way at that time.

But the Gryffindor at that time just drank his favorite liquor and said, "Ryan, Ryan!"

"Do you know why I like you? Because you are a lion!"

"...Teacher, I'm Layne, not Lion—they're completely different..."

"No, boy!"

But Gryffindor interrupted him: "Of course you are the lion - I am the old lion, and you are the young one... Come, try this!"

At that time, he gave Ryan a sip of wine, and then laughed at the latter who was coughing due to choking.

Then he said amidst laughter.

"Does justice grow old? Yes—of course it does!"

"I will keep fighting, but I will also grow old and die... But Ryan, my little lion - you are still here, aren't you?"

His words still linger in Ryan's mind, never ceasing to echo.

So, Ryan looked at Lucius Malfoy.

"Mr. Malfoy."

But I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

At this moment, whether it is Lucius, Harry, Ron or Draco Malfoy.

They all felt that Ryan's calm voice was like the roar of a lion shaking the grassland.

"Justice always comes later."

Ryan said so.

Justice may grow old, but there will always be new people to carry its banner.

Ryan is a disciple of the Big Four - he does not regard justice and righteousness as his only pursuit like Gryffindor.

But he won't deny that it's part of his path.

"You're right... I have a long future ahead of me."

He said almost exactly the same words as Lucius.

"You'll see."

After he finished speaking, Ryan nodded and greeted Draco, then said goodbye to Harry and Ron.

He turned and walked up the stairs that led higher up the castle.

At this moment, Lucius Malfoy, who had just reacted, was almost speechless with anger.

He clutched his cane tightly in his hands, feeling ashamed and angry.

A mere little wizard actually treated him, actually humiliated him... so much!?

The huge sense of shame made Lucius even want to curse Ryan.

But at this moment...

"correct."

Ryan's voice rang out again, and Lucius subconsciously looked up and saw Ryan standing on the steps.

He looked down at Lucius, as if he was the one in higher position.

"I was just about to ask, perhaps you've heard of Al Maloudine?"

Ryan smiled and asked, "As far as I know... he should be a French wizard - if you please be frank, your appearance is somewhat similar to his."

"Of course... maybe I'm mistaken."

"Otherwise, I really don't understand what the so-called 'meaning of pure blood' is."

After saying that, Ryan walked up the stairs and disappeared after turning the escalator.

"...Father?"

Draco looked at the father he had always admired.
