Hogwarts Raven's Claw

Chapter 49 Godric's Hollow 210

House elves are an excellent slave, their magic ability is innate, and they don't need to learn like wizards. At the same time, after thousands of years of brainwashing, they are now proud to work for their masters for free and ashamed to be abandoned by their masters.

The original house-elves were spoils of war captured by families who participated in the war to suppress the goblin rebellion. They were passed down to later generations and became a symbol of family glory and heritage.

Therefore, no family would sell their house-elves unless they were on the verge of survival, which made house-elves a priceless and precious treasure.

Lolo was won by Professor Flitwick in a fight with someone else. It is said that the guy who lost Lolo was beaten half to death by the elders of his family when he got home.

Mike did not sympathize with the house-elves. Those who fell behind would be beaten. This was the eternal truth in the world.

I have to say that Lolo's cooking skills are really good. He doesn't look like a house-elf from Britain at all. Mike and Professor Flitwick enjoyed this meal very much.

After lunch, Flitwick took Mike to visit his house.

The address of this house is 210 Godric's Hollow. You read that right, it is the Godric's Hollow where Harry Potter's parents lived.

To be honest, this house doesn't look magical at all from the outside. It looks just like an ordinary two-story British building.

But if you open the door and go inside, you will find a different world inside. The door will open and close automatically, the mop and rag will clean by themselves, the specimens will move their eyes around...

The most exaggerated thing is that this seemingly small house actually has 46 rooms! From the guest rooms of dozens of square meters to the spell training rooms of hundreds of square meters, each room is attached with a large number of traceless telescopic spells!
Mike was stunned by such a large sum of money. If this amount of work was used to make seamless stretch bags, it would probably be enough to buy half of Diagon Alley.

After learning that the house was built by Professor Flitwick himself, Mike looked at him differently. You are so rich, but you still want to be a professor at Hogwarts? You must be vain.

Mike had also been to Professor Flitwick's common room at Hogwarts. Although the conditions there were also very good, it was far inferior to this "mansion".

Mike raised his doubts to Professor Flitwick, but Professor Flitwick did not explain anything to Mike. He just laughed dryly and changed the subject.

"Stop asking these boring questions and let's go to the magic training room. I want to take a good look at your magic level."

The magic training room in the "mansion" is even more luxurious than the one inside the secret door of Professor Flitwick's office. The material on the wall has been directly upgraded from anti-magic stone to obsidian.

As Flitwick watched, Mac raised the blackthorn wand.

"The flames are blazing!"

A blazing white flame gushed out from the tip of the staff and engulfed several dummies not far away, and the brightness in the entire training room was lowered a bit.

The quality of the dummy here is obviously much better than the one in the room of every wish. It lasted more than ten seconds under the burning of the blazing white flame before starting to melt.

As Mike's mind moved, the column of fire spurting out from the tip of the staff disappeared, and balls of bright white fire the size of an adult's fist were fired out.

The flying speed of these fireballs is not very fast, but they seem to have automatic tracking and can automatically adjust their flight trajectory to finally focus on the target.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" As the fireball hit the dummy, a series of explosions completely submerged the area where the dummy was. The air waves hit Mike and Flitwick, blowing up their clothes.

Professor Flitwick was very excited and clapped his hands repeatedly.

But Mike's performance was not over yet.

"Wind speed spell! Obstacles galore! Blazing flames! Shattered into pieces! Petrified!"

Mike started running, and with the help of the wind speed spell, he was like a flash of lightning, moving around the training room. Spells were released from his wand one after another, and the few remaining moving targets in the training room were blasted into slag.

After finishing the performance, Mike supported himself on his knees and gasped for breath. At this moment, he looked like he had just been pulled out of the water, and his whole body was covered in sweat.

Professor Flitwick at the side quickly turned a glass of water into water and handed it to Mike: "You are definitely the best student I have ever taught! I only demonstrated the use of the Fire Spell to you once, and you have been able to achieve this level after studying on your own for a year! I can't believe that you just finished the first grade this year."

"No, it's the dean's good teaching." Mike took the cup and drank it all. "How could I, an orphan with no one to rely on, achieve what I have today without your care?"

Professor Flitwick was a very emotional person. When he heard Mike's words, his eyes suddenly turned red. He stretched out his hand to touch Mike's head but found that he was too short to reach it. His expression instantly became a little awkward.

The outstretched hand quietly changed direction and patted Mike's arm, while he continued to mutter words of praise to Mike.

And Mike continued to flatter Flitwick about his business as if he didn't notice what Flitwick had just done.

Before dinner, Professor Flitwick took Mike to visit Godric's Hollow again. Not long after they walked out of the gate, the "mansion" behind them disappeared. Mike knew that this should be a kind of protective magic, and his evaluation of this "mansion" increased a few points.

Godric's Hollow is the birthplace of Godric Gryffindor, one of the four founders of Hogwarts. After the International Statute of Secrecy came into effect, it became a village where Muggles and wizards live together.

The two have lived together for a long time, so Muggles will naturally discover some secrets about wizards, so this is also the focus of the Ministry of Magic's Memory Erasure Department. Almost every Muggle resident here has been forgotten, perhaps because of the sequelae of the Forgetfulness Charm, the Muggles here don't have a good memory.

It is also the birthplace of the famous Harry Potter. Voldemort was defeated by the baby Harry Potter here.

In order to commemorate the Porter family, people specially erected a bronze statue of them in the village square.

These bronze statues are attached with Muggle-repelling spells. In the eyes of Muggles, they are just a monument to commemorate World War II. But in the eyes of wizards, they are bronze statues of the Potter family.

Almost every wizard who comes to Godric's Hollow will choose to come here and bow deeply to this brave family to thank them for their contributions to the wizarding world.

The church in the village is also extraordinary. The small cemetery behind the church is the ancestral burial place of many pure-blood families.

"Those powerful wizards who were so famous during their lifetime can only be buried in this small and dilapidated cemetery after death. Death is really an equal and terrifying thing." Mike thought as he looked at the densely packed tombstones in front of him, "No wonder Voldemort was so crazy about pursuing immortality. There is great terror hidden in death."
