Hogwarts: What are the four great masters doing?

Those mudblood boasts he had once scorned.

But at this moment, they seemed to be repeating in his ears.

"Yes, father..."

He answered his father subconsciously, as if he had done so since he was a child.

"We have noble blood, we are great pure-blood wizards."

"We...are born noble."

However, Lucius did not notice the slight doubt in his words.

And at the same time...

"What a coincidence!"

Ryan naturally had no interest in the conversation between Lucius and Malfoy's father and son.

At this moment, he was just walking towards the dormitory, sighing in his heart.

Yes, Lucius's guess was certainly correct, Ryan did know who Al Malodin was.

But he didn't see it from some vault, but he already knew the other person - in that era a thousand years ago!

To be precise, the poor wizard, the son of a French carpenter, was rescued by Ryan and the four giants who passed by.

At that time, he even tried to follow the Big Four, but was rejected by them.

"You don't have enough talent, and we already have the best successor."

Ryan still remembers the gloomy expression under the other person's unique platinum hair when he was rejected.

When he first saw Draco Malfoy, he didn't think much of it.

But after seeing Lucius, who was of the same lineage as Draco, he immediately remembered him and began to test the waters.

Lucius's performance undoubtedly confirmed his guess.

"One of the most famous pure-blood families in the contemporary wizarding world, whose ancestor was a Muggle wizard..."

Thinking of this, Ryan shook his head: "Fate is really interesting."

Chapter 49 Fairy Rune, Hermione’s Discovery!

Ryan didn't really take the encounter with the Malfoy father and son to heart and soon put it out of his mind.

What bothered him more was actually Snape's attitude.

The Potions professor did not put Ryan in detention on Sunday, nor did he come to discuss "cooperation" with him.

This gave Ryan a headache.

To this end, Ryan even chose Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff classes in the second week's schedule - their Potions class was on Tuesday instead of Friday.

But in class, he found that Snape simply ignored him.

That's right, he didn't even respond to Ryan with venom or criticism, but simply ignored him.

Even when Ryan took the initiative to try to communicate, he just said, "Mr. Elias has obviously made enough achievements in potions, you probably shouldn't show up in this class at all," and then walked away.

So Ryan realized that the Potions Professor seemed to have really been hurt by him.

Of course, the other little wizards don't know this.

They only knew that Professor Snape, who was hated by everyone in the school except the Slytherins, was so 'afraid' of Ryan!

For a time, Ryan's reputation in the Lion Academy even surpassed Harry.

But Harry didn't care about it at all, and was even more excited than Ryan - in fact, he was the one who was targeted the most by Snape, but he was the one who cheered the loudest for Ryan's 'great deeds'!

In addition, Ryan also got some gossip from Neville and Seamus.

For example, last weekend, Ron went to Quidditch practice with great expectations, but the result was not very good.

He was not well-regarded by Oliver Wood, the Gryffindor Quidditch Captain.

"Your tactics are too old-fashioned!"

He wasn't happy with the tactics Ron had written down in his diary, nor was he impressed by the technique Ron had used that nearly knocked him over on his broom.

On the contrary, Harry, who was originally just a companion, showed extraordinary flying talent during the test!

It is said that Wood has contacted Professor McGonagall. He believes that if Harry can be allowed to join the team as an exception, Gryffindor will gain a talented chaser!

But Professor McGonagall was not sure about this. She might consider letting Harry take a trial in the next week or two and observe Harry's level in person.

"Of course, we will finalize Harry's affairs before Halloween to ensure that it does not affect the house competition in November."

She promised so.

Also, Ryan heard that Hermione and Ron had another quarrel not long ago.

The cause was also Ron, who did not complete the paper assigned by the professor because of the Quidditch test at the weekend.

When he tried to ask Hermione for permission to 'borrow', Hermione pointed out that 'you shouldn't plagiarize because you have missed classes in the past week and should catch up now'.

Ron took it as an insult from Hermione.

In addition, the Quidditch test did not go well, and he lost control of his emotions for a while, calling Hermione a "freak with no friends", and the two parted on bad terms!

These sharp words made Ryan feel a little uneasy... In fact, he had recently discovered that Ron's mood was unstable.

His sleep was unstable, sometimes he felt tired, and sometimes he felt excited.

He is gentle and enthusiastic most of the time, but can occasionally show considerable emotion.

"He said the wrong thing."

"He should apologize or get a beating."

So after hearing what Neville said, Ryan made a fair evaluation.

Apart from Potions and Gossip, the rest of the courses went smoothly for Ryan.

Especially the Transfiguration class.

After two unsuccessful attempts, Professor McGonagall seemed a little embarrassed - in the next two weeks of Transfiguration class, she did not mention the "ancient books" in the Ryan vault again.

This made Ryan feel very relaxed, but he didn't dare to relax completely.

Because from the look that this serious witch gave Ryan from time to time, she obviously had not forgotten about it.

Of course, for Ryan himself.

All of the above things are relatively minor.

The key to his real research still lies in the Marauder's Map.

First of all, there were the four makers of the Marauder's Map - Ryan certainly did not forget to investigate their identities.

But unfortunately, trying to find four people from all the students of Hogwarts based on just four nicknames is like looking for a needle in a haystack, so he didn't gain anything in this regard.

In addition, Ryan has made considerable progress in his research on the Marauder's Map itself.

He delved deeper into the ancient material used to construct the Marauder's Map, which was suspected to have been made by fairies, and even extracted several runes belonging to fairies from it.

These ancient characters clearly had a special meaning, but Ryan was not sure what it meant.

In fact, if you asked him which part of a goblin's head was most likely to be fatal with a punch, or what would make a goblin tremble with fear, he would be able to answer the question fluently after being taught by Gryffindor.

"The answer to the former is one and a half inches below the eyes. This is the most vulnerable spot on a goblin's head, and it's also where they believe the magic of wealth resides. Hitting it will cause the goblin to suffer severe damage both mentally and physically."

"The answer to the latter is simpler. A single Niffler can scare goblins. They can make shiny objects disappear from goblin homes, which is exactly what goblins fear the most."

After some random thoughts, Ryan went to the place where he was most likely to find out the origins of these runes - the library on the second floor of the castle.

As the library of Hogwarts, the only magic school in the UK, the Hogwarts library is of course huge.

It is a solemn and dignified place, with thousands of all-encompassing magic books neatly arranged on dark brown bookshelves.

So much so that when Ryan came here for the first time, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

He had no way of comparing the small library from a thousand years ago with the huge library today.

"The Ravenclaw teacher will be very happy to see this."

Looking at the collection of books that almost reached the ceiling, Ryan couldn't help but think in his heart - for Ravenclaw who loves books and knowledge, the accumulation of Hogwarts over thousands of years in front of her would definitely be the most gratifying thing for her.

But soon, Ryan put away his sentimentality.

He borrowed books related to goblins from the library, and for the next period of time he devoted almost all his energy to the process of looking up information.

This would have been a huge undertaking - the Hogwarts collection of books was vast, and even the books containing only 'goblins' were quite numerous.

Fortunately, Ryan met a good helper on the second day of his arrival at the library.

It was none other than Miss Hermione Granger.

The little witch was sad because of the intensified conflict with Ron not long ago. She has been staying in the library for a long time recently, immersing herself in the ocean of knowledge to heal her wounds.

When she found out that Ryan had also come to the library and heard that Ryan wanted to look up the meaning of several fairy runes, she became interested.

"Goblins... I've only seen them once in Gringotts. They sound interesting."

"Let me help you check."

She said this excitedly, and then looked up information about fairies with Ryan - Ryan also trusted her.

He had heard that Hermione was called 'Little McGonagall' in Gryffindor... Although this might not be a nice name, it also showed her rigor in knowledge.

In fact, after three weeks of searching.

It was indeed Hermione who first discovered the clue.

"Boom boom boom!"

Ryan heard the crisp sound of the little witch's shoes stepping on the ground, and then she pressed a book in front of Ryan with her hand.

"Found it! This rune...maybe it's the only one we can find!"

She said excitedly - this made Ryan once again suspect that the Sorting Hat had made a mistake. How could the other person not be a Ravenclaw?

Of course, he also knew that now was not the time to explore the Sorting Hat's capabilities.
