If Draco were here, he would definitely be very surprised that Ariana, who always pulls out her wand, would actually take the initiative to persuade others to put it down.

Draco didn't mention her pulling out her wand, but Snape did.

"Don't you always pull out your wand to solve problems? Now that your wand is out, let's have a fight. If you win, I won't interfere with your relationship with Draco. If you lose, then you can break up with him and stop talking about immigration all the time."

His tone was very cold and serious, and he looked really angry.

After hearing what Snape said, Ariana couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

"Professor, how shameless are you? You actually want to duel with a young wizard who has only been in Hogwarts for two weeks, and the chips you took out are mine? Are you okay?"

There is definitely a gap in magical power between her and Snape, but she has the advantage of understanding spells. If she goes all out, she doesn't care if Hogwarts is destroyed. Her winning rate is over 70%.

Snape ignored Ariana's threat and looked at her viciously.

"Do you know the magnitude of the consequences of kidnapping the heir of the Malfoy family? Dumbledore needs your help, so he tolerates your arrogance, but Lucius Malfoy will never tolerate you."

Did this prickly little wizard really think that Lucius was as innocent as his naive son?

Ariana always took the easy way out and never took the hard way. Upon hearing this, she sneered and said, "If you won't tolerate it, then let him fight. I don't believe I can't defeat the businessman who hangs around the Ministry of Magic all day."

Chapter 72 I Really Want to Duel with You

Snape was not one to say nice things. Upon hearing Ariana's fierce threat of a duel, he sneered, "Foolish little troll! You said he was a businessman, how could he possibly duel with you?"

Ariana looked at Snape speechlessly and complained, "What about you, a black bat who teaches potions, why are you dueling with me with a wand?"

If you give someone a nickname, you must be prepared to be nicknamed by others.

Snape really wanted to curse her, but when he thought of the analysis of his Fiendfyre given by this troublemaker, he took a deep breath, tried to calm himself, and told her a little about the power of the family.

"The Malfoy family's business is spread throughout the entire wizarding world. He won't duel with you, but he will definitely make it impossible for you to stay in the wizarding world." I hope this little troll can be more sensible.

Ariana did not say naively that she did not care about the magical world. After all, she had obtained the admission ticket and her magical talent was so good, so why couldn't she walk in the magical world.

Besides, the magical world doesn't belong to the Malfoy family. If they say you can't stay, does that mean you really can't stay? How shameless!

Ariana didn't directly refute the other party, but changed her words and asked, "If the Dark Lord stood before him, would he have the capital to threaten the Dark Lord and make him unable to stay in the wizarding world?"

The followers told their boss to get out. It was a beautiful scene. Ariana sneered.

Snape felt that this stupid little troll was really annoying as he couldn't fight her. Besides, was she out of her mind? She even mentioned the Dark Lord at every turn. She was really lawless.

But looking at Ariana who had regained some of her composure, Snape felt something was strange; it was not in line with her character.

"What do you mean?" Did this little giant know something?

Ariana's training was not good enough, and after she analyzed that the Dark Lord was not dead, her expression showed some of it when she spoke.

Snape was a spy and paid great attention to details, so he naturally saw the clues.

Ariana didn't know that her expression had been exposed. Of course, she would not tell Snape her guess, but just changed the subject.

"Don't even mention that Draco hasn't immigrated to the United States with me yet. Even if he did, he would be able to live well in the United States. His father would just not be able to see him often, which is actually not a big loss."

She changed the subject and continued, "But the Dark Lord almost had him sent to Azkaban back then. Who offended him more, me or the Dark Lord?"

Ariana felt that Draco's father was a bully who only bullied her because she had not grown up yet.

Snape frowned, becoming more certain of what he was thinking. He looked at her sarcastically and said, "You're just a stupid little troll. Are you comparable to the Dark Lord?"

Even Dumbledore admitted that Ariana's talent was terrifying, and Snape knew it too. He said this just to irritate this little thorn.

Hearing that she was being slandered, Ariana immediately became upset and retorted, "Draco thinks that my magical talent is similar to that of the Dark Lord, but I'm richer than him, so I'm still better than him."

Snape almost laughed out loud and mocked her, "I really want to open your head and see if it's full of water. You actually listened to that brat Draco."

He knew his godson very well. Although he had made some progress under Ariana's influence, he was still an innocent kid at heart, who only knew Quidditch.

Ariana felt that there was no point in talking about this, so she asked impatiently, "Professor, are you going to fight or not? If not, put your wand away. It's tiring to hold your hand up for too long."

Snape put away his wand in a bad mood and snorted, "Stupid little troll, if I really wanted to duel with you, do you think I would choose an office full of precious medicinal herbs?"

Don't think he doesn't know. This prickly little giant must know that I didn't take action, otherwise she would have cast the spell first like before.

"I guess so," Ariana shrugged.

After putting away her wand, Ariana remembered something and complained, "Last time, Dumbledore said he wanted to start a dueling class. I see that the professor is very aggressive and has a bad temper. I don't think you're suitable for teaching Potions. The dueling professor is a good fit for you."

Among all the teachers at Hogwarts, only Snape is a bit more aggressive and is more suitable for teaching how to duel, especially the kind of fierce battle.

As for Professor Flitwick, the legendary duelling champion, Ariana really couldn't imagine the scene of him duelling fiercely with others.

Snape said unhappily, "Dumbledore needs your help now. You can go and raise this suggestion with him."

Ariana had already seen Dumbledore's intention of tolerating him, so how could Snape not see it?

When it comes to this, Ariana has endless things to complain about Dumbledore.

"No, that won't do. This is clearly your business. Why should I use my connections to help you? And what does he want from me? How can I stand on the side of the savior when I've already fought him several times?"

Even though she really saw Porter save the world with her own eyes, Ariana still didn't want to stand on his side because their values ​​were really different.

Snape frowned even more tightly when he heard this, but he asked calmly, "When did Dumbledore tell you to stand on Potter's side?"

"This weekend." Ariana answered smoothly.

Snape's expression immediately darkened, and after a while he said to Ariana, "You can go now."

But Ariana had no intention of leaving. This was so meaningless. No fight had even started, and there was no result to the discussion. Was she coming here for nothing?

"How do we resolve this Draco issue? I think he's quite upset that his dad withheld his allowance. Otherwise, he wouldn't have decided to learn how to make money from me and even planned to go to America with me in the future."

She didn't want Draco to fall out with his family, mainly because there was no need. In her opinion, the conflict between him and his father was so trivial that it was not worth mentioning.

Imagine that your son is in love with a little girl in elementary school. They go to class and eat together. It's just like playing house. She really can't see why there is anything to object to.

Hearing Ariana's tone, Snape asked uncertainly, "Are you two together?"

You have to leave room for maneuver when doing things. Of course, Ariana will not answer this question.

"Is this important? Professor, the problem is that you should talk to his father. If they continue to be at a stalemate like this, Draco will definitely immigrate to the United States with me after graduation."

Snape didn't want to entertain his good friend who was always showing off, so he gave Ariana a suggestion in a bad mood.

"The Malfoy family cannot lose an heir. Advise Draco not to forget his responsibilities."

Ariana asked speechlessly, "You asked me to fulfill my responsibilities, but you even deducted my pocket money?"

Chapter 73 This is what she does best

Snape felt that if Ariana and Draco were really together, their IQ would definitely drop to negative. Why didn't these two brats think about how long it had been since school started?

"His monthly allowance is 60 Galleons, and it's not even next month's allowance yet. Think about it with your impoverished brains."

Lucius was obviously threatening Draco with something that hadn't happened yet.

Ariana said speechlessly: "It seems his father is scaring him again. If it keeps like this, he'll be sad too."

Draco will still be sad now, but once he is completely disappointed, I am afraid that he will not be able to give the Malfoy family this pocket money even if he wants to.

Snape obviously understood what Ariana meant. He said calmly, "I'll have Lucius write to Draco. Ask him to be nicer when he replies."

If both sides give each other a way out, the matter will be resolved. As for the matter of the two little kids being together, he thinks it can be put aside for now, as it may not be true.

Ellie disagreed: "Now he is the one who needs Draco's help, and he is letting Draco take the initiative to please him. Who is the child?"

Snape didn't want to talk to her anymore and kicked her out again.

Just like Ariana was waiting for Draco yesterday, Draco was also waiting for her anxiously in the lounge.

"What did my godfather say to you? Did he mention my immigration to the United States?" He felt that it was because he let the cat out of the bag yesterday that caused Ariana's misfortune.

Ariana didn't answer, but said angrily: "Next time he asks me to go to the Forbidden Forest, I have to put on some protective spells in advance. I feel like Snape wants to duel with me."

Not only did Ariana want to fight, she felt that Snape wanted to fight too.

After learning magic for more than two weeks, she now really wants to find someone to duel with to see the results. However, she guessed that no student at Hogwarts would dare to accept her duel, and only Snape among the professors would agree.

Draco stared at Ariana with wide eyes and asked, "You two had a conflict just now."

Ariana shook her head and told him what had just happened.

"He pointed his wand at me as soon as I entered. I knew he couldn't fight me in an office full of potions ingredients, so I didn't cast a spell preemptively."

"And then?" Draco demanded.

Ariana shrugged and continued, "Then he told me that your dad would write you a letter, asking you to reply in a nicer manner and take the opportunity to get back together."

"That's it." Draco was a little disappointed.

He also thought that his father would give in and buy him a flying broom, which he could leave at home even if he couldn't bring it to school.

When Ariana visits his house during the holidays, she can try out the latest Nimbus 2000. Who knows, she might even fall in love with broomsticks.

Then they have one more hobby.

Ariana could see that Draco was disappointed and spoke up for him, "Are you really unwilling to accept this? He didn't even apologize, and he even asked you to be nicer."

Draco said dejectedly, "If it were before, I would definitely be happy that my father gave in to me, even if it was just a little bit. But now I feel very unwilling and think it shouldn't be like this."

In the end, the seeds of rebellion awakened.

Ariana didn't think there was anything wrong with Draco's behavior, and asked him, "So what do you want? We can discuss it and see how we can achieve it?"

Making plans and then following through on them is what she does best.

Draco thought about it carefully and gave a general direction.

"I want them to support every decision I make. It's not a transaction or a threat. I think that's what family should be like. What do you think?"

Magical families do not live in groups, and the distance between castles is quite far. Draco had no comparable family before, but after arriving at Hogwarts, he found that the atmosphere in his own home was not that good either.

If Ron knew Draco was thinking this way, he would definitely complain harshly. His father was just trying to scare him at most, and because there were so many children in the Weasley family, children without distinctive personalities would basically be ignored.

This refers to Ron, the sixth one who is ranked in the middle, has mediocre qualifications and an unpleasant personality.

Ariana looked at Draco with amusement and teased him, "I didn't expect you to be so greedy. Not only do you plan to abandon them and immigrate to the United States, you also want their support. Not only will it satisfy you psychologically, but you also need them to support you financially. Am I right?"

Draco had no problem admitting this to his best friend.

"That's right. Am I not a Malfoy, whether in Britain or America? As the heir, they should support me." Draco felt that this was a matter of course.

Ariana didn't think there was any problem and immediately thought of a solution for him.

"That's right. Why should we choose? We have grown up. Of course, we need to grow up both physically and mentally. When he writes to you, tell him that if he is unwilling to support your decision, he can kick you out of the Malfoy family."

"That's too much." Draco hesitated.

Ariana analyzed the whole thing to him in a bad mood.

"Asking for a high price and then paying it back is a good idea. There are still seven years left. This strategy will allow you to gain the maximum benefits now. No matter where we are, if we want to live happily, we must have a lot of resources."

He is the heir of the Malfoy family. What's wrong with him fighting for his legal interests?

Draco thought Ariana's plan was very good, then he thought about what he wanted, and when he thought of the confrontation with Professor Snape yesterday, it suddenly came to his mind.

"Didn't they say before that if I was willing to break up with you, they would buy me the latest Nimbus 2000, and Professor Snape could even let me join the Quidditch house team. Then tell my dad that if these two conditions aren't met, I'll be immigrating to the United States."

People used it to bribe him, but now he is using it to threaten others.

"Very good." Ariana gave him a thumbs up.

But Draco's plan had not yet been implemented, and the next day he was provoked by Harry and broke down.

In the morning in the Great Hall, when the Owl Messenger Team was delivering things to everyone, a small team of owls came to the Gryffindor table, carrying a long box in their mouths.

Because of its size, everyone in the hall turned their attention to Gryffindor to see who had purchased such a large item.

The long box finally landed in front of Harry. He was already the center of attention, and this thing was extremely conspicuous, which immediately caused quite a bit of discussion.

"What did Potter buy? He used so many owls to deliver it."

"Look at the shape. It looks like a flying broom."

It was indeed a flying broom, and Professor McGonagall bought it for Harry despite knowing the law. In order not to cause a sensation, she also asked the merchant to mark the outside of the box not to be opened in the hall.

Chapter 74 Draco roared

But Ron's hands were too quick. Before Harry could even read the label on the box, he had already pulled out the latest Nimbus 2000.

All the Gryffindors gathered around Harry, looking at the latest Nimbus 2000 broom excitedly.
