But when Harry entered school, he had the misfortune of meeting the enchantress Ariana, and his halo as the savior was dimmed.

Ron did not enjoy the treatment that a celebrity friend should have, but he exercised the treatment that a celebrity friend should have, so frustration was inevitable.

Ariana said nonchalantly, "He must really like flying brooms. His best friend has one, but he doesn't. If it were you, wouldn't you be jealous?"

Ariana didn't take the character who apologized after every direct conflict seriously. She just said it casually following Draco's words.

Draco got furious when he heard this.

"You actually suspected that I would be jealous of you? You forgot that I could give you my favorite position as Seeker. I can give you anything you want from me." He looked at his best friend with a hurt look on his face.

Ariana immediately reacted and said flatteringly, "Well, I shouldn't use you as an example. You're the best boyfriend in the world. Our relationship is unmatched."

"That's right." Draco smiled again.

At this moment, he completely forgot that he actually often compared himself and Ariana with Harry and Ron.

Because only third years could leave school and go to Hogsmeade, Ariana and Draco could only wait in the common room for the seniors to bring back things.

While she was reading, Draco's owl suddenly flew to Ariana's side. At this point in time, it should be Thompson's reply.

After reading the letter, Ariana opened the box that she had cursed.

This is a super-large box that was transformed using a shrinking spell and a traceless stretching spell. It is a simplified version of a magic suitcase.

Because the concentration of magic in the Muggle world is not high, Ariana also expanded the magic capacity through the program.

If enough magic power is input in advance and the box automatically absorbs magic power, the box can last for two weeks.

Ariana often sent this box to Thompson, asking him to buy things, put them in, and give them to an owl to bring to Hogwarts, as a way of developing a large-scale package delivery business.

"This is the book I chose for you. You can read it first and mark the parts you don't understand. I will set aside half an hour every night to answer your questions." Ariana took out a bundle of books and handed them to her good friend.

Draco didn't read the book immediately, but instead focused his attention on Ariana's box, which contained quite a few books.

This was not surprising to him, because Ariana not only read magic books, but also many so-called science books, but there were still many snacks and drinks in the box.

Ever since reconciling with her family, Ariana hasn't asked Thompson to buy her snacks.

Draco had made a request, after all, Muggle snacks were quite delicious, but lovely Liana refused, saying that he should control his calorie intake.

Unexpectedly, she asked Thompson to deliver more food, and there was so much of it. It was definitely not for her, Draco thought.

"Why didn't you ask Thompson to tear off all the labels?" he asked puzzledly.

Even if it's not for yourself, you should tear off the label, after all, this is Slytherin.

Before she reconciled with her family, Ariana had Thompson send her candies with the labels removed.

But Draco was also very cautious. He ate all the candies himself and didn't give them to others. After all, the candies at home had been given to others before and they were not of this flavor at all.

These were definitely not for Draco. Ariana was asking him to control his sugar intake, so how could she buy him so many snacks and drinks?

"I don't think it's necessary. Hold it for me. I'm going to give it to the Slytherin people. Then others can eat it too, and you won't feel embarrassed." This was her purpose.

Before Draco could ask Ariana why she did this, she had already walked to the center of the lounge with two bundles of books.

Ariana said loudly to the people in the lounge, "I asked my lawyer to buy a lot of snacks and drinks in the Muggle world. If you want to eat, come and get them."

As she said that, she asked Draco to take the things out of the box and put them on the table. Draco would never challenge Ariana's decision in public, so he could only take the things obediently.

Farley, a regular in the lounge, came over and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of buying these things in the Muggle world and giving them to everyone?"

Although the Slytherins secretly respected Ariana, they were always suspicious of her overly close attitude towards Muggles.

But everyone can understand it. After all, she grew up in the Muggle world. They think that her mentality will change if she stays in the magical world for a long time. After all, Muggle-born wizards will also have this kind of change.

Seeing that Ariana brought so many Muggle things and placed them in the common room, Farley felt something was not good. He wondered if she was going to change the entire Slytherin culture and make them accept Muggles?

Slytherin, who hates Muggles the most, popularized Muggle things before other colleges. This is really fantastic.

That's what Ariana was thinking.

"I don't know about other houses, but Slytherins don't understand anything about Muggle things, but they just follow the adults and think their things are dirty and smelly. I don't think that's right." She first defined her personality for this matter.

Farley frowned and said, "Everyone says that. There's no way it doesn't make sense, right?"

Ariana didn't deny it, but calmly said: "Even if it's dirty or smelly, it should be discovered by you, instead of accepting what others say."

Then he revealed his true intentions and pointed out, "The same goes for the spells I shared with you. You didn't dare ask me when you didn't understand them. Just because I used Muggle knowledge, do you think you won't learn it?"

Muggle snacks and drinks were just a gimmick. Her entry point was her own magical achievements, and she didn't believe that these people would not change.

Adrian saw Farley frowning and knew she was in a difficult situation, so he came out to ease the atmosphere.

"Everyone is probably a little afraid of disturbing you. Those magic books you read must have been transfigured. They look like a mess of numbers to others." Adrien was talking about the book Ariana was reading in the lounge.

Although when Ariana was in the lounge, no one else came close to where she and Draco were sitting.

But there were times when I inevitably passed by her and noticed that the book she was reading was big and thick. I took a quick glance at it and found that it was full of garbled characters and I couldn't understand anything.

Ariana did not respond to this question, and the topic was still on the analysis of her own spell.

"The magic analysis I wrote is, of course, written according to my own ideas. I bought some supplementary teaching materials and placed them in the lounge. Anyone who wants can study, from simple to difficult. I will set aside half an hour every night to answer your questions."

What she meant was that if you wanted to learn her spells, you first had to understand the supplementary teaching materials placed in the lounge, which were Muggle knowledge, and she was also willing to set aside time to answer questions.

It can be said that Ariana's move is full of sincerity.

Chapter 140 Why do you pay so much?

Farley immediately understood what Ariana meant. She was willing to teach everyone how to understand the magic analysis full of equations.

And Slytherin must be exposed to Muggle knowledge, or other things, according to her wishes.

"Colin's intention is good, let's try the food she bought." Farley finally compromised and opened a box of chocolates.

The mixed-bloods were already eager to try, and without waiting for Adrian to take the lead, they gathered at the table in groups of three or four to get some snacks.

Although the purebloods were a little resistant, they felt that learning spells was too important, so they finally put aside their grudges and took that step.

“It’s quite delicious.”

“Actually, these packaging are quite exquisite.”

"The Muggle world is changing with each passing day. It's no longer as backward as wizards think. It's just that no one dares to say it." These words were spoken cautiously by a half-blood.

The pureblood retorted, "It's not just us Slytherins who have this habit. Even Hufflepuffs don't talk much about the Muggle world."

This kind of atmosphere has been prevalent in Hogwarts. Anyone who eats or uses Muggle food seems to be inferior. As a result, young wizards who come from Muggles dare not take things out of their homes casually.

Draco already understood what Ariana meant by this time. He looked at the pure-bloods whose expressions were still a little stiff, and he helped to smooth things over with a few words.

"Ariana is right. Even if it's not a Muggle thing, whether it's good or bad, we shouldn't let others tell us. We should discover it ourselves." He raised his voice.

The Malfoy family has a very special status in Slytherin. With Draco's mediation, the pure-bloods completely let down their guard and plunged into the happy world of snacks and drinks.

Seeing everyone eating happily, Ariana put down her book and joined them.

"Every world has its good and bad sides, and the Muggle world also has its bad side. I'm not asking you to accept them, but I hope you don't know nothing about them." Ariana didn't want these people to go too far.

Farley frowned and asked, "Do you mean that we just want everyone to understand?"

Ariana neither admitted nor denied it, but simply said, "Even if I let you merge, even if I became the second Mysterious Man, you wouldn't be able to do it."

Hearing the mysterious man, everyone froze in their snacking. Ariana felt helpless. It seemed that Draco's timidity was not an isolated case.

Ariana skipped the topic of the mysterious man and continued, "I know Slytherin has always excluded young wizards of Muggle origin, but I don't think it's necessary. After all, they were already wizards the moment they awakened their magic. To Muggles, they were already aliens."

Flint said grumpily, "But they still have a motive for exposing the magical world."

After all, all relatives and friends are in the Muggle world. If the wizard is exposed, a conflict will definitely break out between the two sides. The position of the Muggle wizard is very intriguing.

Ariana shook her head and said, "This isn't the Middle Ages anymore. Muggles now pursue the truth. If a race as magical as wizards were to emerge, they would surely be scrambled for research by all nations. To save their lives, Muggle wizards wouldn't tell anyone they knew magic."

"Colin, what do you want to do?" Farley went straight to the heart of the matter.

Ariana said bluntly: "I have talked to you about this. The problem that Slytherin is having trouble solving is the population problem. If we keep excluding Muggle wizards, this problem will never be solved."

They don't want to have more children, and they reject half-bloods and Muggle wizards. Do they really want to destroy themselves?

Draco couldn't help but say, "We only have so many resources, and the proportion of Muggle-born wizards is increasing. If we accept them, everyone will be the same. How can we maintain our dominant position?"

Having enjoyed a distinguished status and not yet facing a life-or-death situation, he felt that the kind of environment Ariana wanted would be difficult to achieve.

As a person who traveled through time from the 21st century, Ariana has many ways to deal with this situation.

For example, like a super consortium, it has investments in various countries and uses interests to bind countries. In this way, there are more ways to eliminate the whereabouts of wizards than just the Forgetfulness Spell.

Moreover, this method can smoothly integrate into the Muggle society, and the living space is not limited to places hidden by magic. Will there be a need to worry about insufficient resources at that time?

Of course, such an in-depth topic is not suitable for her to bring up now. She has to wait until she grows up completely.

"There are many ways to maintain a dominant position. Take the dueling club I opened, for example. It only accepts Slytherins, so it's naturally superior to other houses. Accommodating Muggle wizards doesn't mean sharing all our resources with them. As long as we maintain an absolute advantage, that's enough."

Since you can't make a big decision yet, you can start with small goals. Just like a drop of water wears away a stone, you must always take the first step first.

Farley said seriously, "That's not for us to decide, Colin."

Although most of the purebloods present are family heirs, they are not the ones in power. They can only make some suggestions on the decision-making power in the family.

Ariana shook her head and said, "Then we can do what we can decide, such as trying to understand Muggle knowledge to seek breakthroughs in magic."

She has always implemented a strategy of influence from the bottom up. Although these people are not yet in charge of the family, they will be one day. Now she just needs to plant the seeds of hope quietly.

When the socializing was over, they returned to their resting corner, and Draco whispered about Ariana's intentions.

"Why do you suddenly want to break Slytherin's habit of excluding Muggle-born wizards?" This really doesn't match Ariana's behavior.

Ariana hadn't been so radical before. Draco almost didn't react just now, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken up for her so late.

Ariana is not in a hurry as she still has to stay in Hogwarts for another 7 years. She does this all for Draco.

"You are learning Muggle knowledge for me, so I have to find a way to solve your face problem." She knew better than anyone how much Draco cared about his face.

Draco immediately realized that it was because he was planning to learn Muggle knowledge in the common room that Ariana was so radical.

But he only planned to ask Ariana to transform his book as well, and just stay away from people.

"I want to become stronger myself, you don't have to do this." He said dryly.

Draco completely forgot that he couldn't learn anything just by reading books like Ariana did. If the two of them discussed Muggle knowledge in the lounge, others would definitely hear it.

Ariana didn't correct him, but just said calmly: "If it weren't for my influence, would you have such thoughts? I can see clearly what you have paid and why you paid so much."

Draco stared at Ariana blankly, and it was a long time before he spoke.

"Yes, I want to become very powerful. Even if I can't compare to you, I want others to think that I am a powerful wizard. When others mention you in the future, they will also mention that Colin's best friend Draco Malfoy is also a very powerful wizard."

Even if he thought so, he was influenced by Ariana.

Chapter 141 The Late 520 Extra

Ariana motioned Draco to look into the common room, asking him to see the young wizards who were reading Muggle books.

She patted Draco's shoulder and said, "Since you have nothing to worry about now, then work hard and we will become the most powerful wizards together in the future."

Whether Draco was reading Muggle books in the common room or the two of them were discussing Muggle knowledge, they would no longer attract strange looks from others.

If you don’t want to be an outlier, you can only assimilate others.

Draco suppressed his excitement and asked Ariana solemnly, "Will we be friends forever?"

Ariana replied without hesitation: "Of course, I was very convinced of this the moment you decided to immigrate to the United States with me."

You can make many friends, but this is probably the only friend who shares your thoughts and is so selfless and kind to you.

"That's right. No matter where we go from now on, we will be together, forever." Draco said firmly.

Flint had someone secretly buy butter beer. Although it was not very strong, it was still very intoxicating if you drank too much.

The Slytherin common room was noisy until late that night, and all the snacks Thompson had sent were wasted.

In the end, Snape came and forced the party to end, and everyone went back to the dormitory to wash up and go to bed.

Because they didn't stay too late yesterday, all the Slytherins gathered at the Black Lake on time the next day to have an interview duel of 20 to 10.

Not only did Slytherin arrive in full force, but almost all the other colleges were there.

Before the interview began, Ariana raised her magic wand and made a fence, requiring everyone other than those participating in the interview to stand outside the fence.

The half-bloods in Slytherin were no longer surprised by her move, but the others were extremely shocked.

"Colin is amazing. Her Transfiguration has reached the pinnacle, right? A silent spell, and a Transfiguration of such a large size."
