Hogwarts Homecoming

"Miss Jasna is the great-grandson of the old master——"

On the banks of the rippling Rhine River, next to the small mill with the creaking wind blades rotating, the elf Hein said in a bleak voice.

"Great-grandson?"

Amosta's eyes fell on Hain, and the vertical lines between his eyebrows showed a little doubt.

"Judging from the age, it doesn't match up, and, with all due respect, it seems to me that Mr. Vogel doesn't seem to care much about his great-grandson?"

"That's because Miss Jasna does not have the blood of the Vogel family in her body. She only lived with her old master for a few weeks."

Hai En, who also looked like an old man, leaned forward, with a hint of sadness in his voice.

"The old master's son died during the war years, and at that time, his grandson had just been born."

"Wait." Amosta interrupted Hain's narration, "Which side is he fighting for?"

Hain was silent for a long time, and just bowed slightly toward Amosta.

And Hain's gesture said everything. Amosta didn't accuse anything, he just said lightly,

"Go on -"

"Many people died in that war that lasted for many years, but after the war ended, the hatred did not disappear, but continued. The grandson of the old master, Adam Vogel, lost his parents when he was young. Hatred left a seed in his heart. Watered by his arrogant dreams, the seed of hatred grew into a towering tree early.

He vowed to avenge his parents and defend the honor of wizards.

The old master always hoped that he could recognize the reality and let go of his hatred, but Master Adam couldn't listen. In order to realize his arrogant dream, after graduating from Durmstrang with honors, he refused the old master's suggestion and entered magic. Instead of working at home, he chose to wander around.

He rarely goes home, maybe not once in two or three years to see his old master, and never stays here for more than three days at a time, and he is always alone."

The elf said with a touch of regret,

"Hain once told Master Adam that he hoped he would give up his pursuit and work in the Ministry of Magic. He hoped that he could find a good girl with noble blood to marry and continue the bloodline of the Vogel family. However, Master Adam did not listen and was immersed in his dream. and revenge, until twenty years ago."

Hain opened his eyes slightly,

"The young master was no longer young at that time, but he suddenly brought back a little girl."

"That girl is Jasna Vogel?" Kingsley asked in a deep voice.

"The old master and Haien are very happy. We thought that Young Master Yadang secretly had a family outside. However, Young Master Adam told us that Jasina was not his heir, but the child of one of his friends. He said Miss Jasna’s parents and ancestors all sacrificed for that dream, so he changed her name and decided to adopt her.”

Amosta's brows furrowed deeply, as if he was keenly aware of something, but he remained calm and continued to listen patiently.

"Although they are sorry, the old master and Haine are still very happy. Haine thought that Master Adam can finally live a stable life with Miss Jasina. He and Miss Jasina can spend more time with the old master. Since the mistress After his death, the old master has been lonely for so many years."

The slender and delicate white fluff on Hain's body swayed slightly in the breeze by the river. He blew his nose heavily, and his big tennis ball-like eyes were filled with moisture, as if he was feeling sad for his owner's desolate and lonely old age. ,

"That was the first time that the young master stayed at home for such a long time since he graduated. Both the old master and Hain thought that he had decided to stay. The old master had already planned to wait until Miss Jasina When she turned eleven, she was sent to Durmstrang to receive magical education.

However, a few weeks later, Master Adam suddenly told us that he was leaving with Miss Jasina. He said that Miss Jasna's biological parents and ancestors died defending the rights and honor of wizards, so she also She should inherit the legacy of her ancestors and join the battle. He said that Miss Jasna did not need to go to Durmstrang. He was much smarter than the teachers at that school. He would personally teach Miss Jasna magic— —”

Listening to the description of this species called elves in the magical world, even Louise, who was angry at the old man sunbathing in the backyard, couldn't help but feel a little pity.

"What crazy dream is this asshole named Adam pursuing?"

Louise couldn't help but ask.

"Please be respectful to Master Adam, ma'am!"

Hain, who was still immersed in sadness just now, suddenly shouted. It glared at Louise angrily, and its voice became sharp and high-pitched,

"Although Master Adam has broken the old master's heart, he is still a descendant of the noble Vogel family. Haine will never allow him to be insulted by a Muggle!"

Hain's sudden reaction startled Louise, but when she came back to her senses, Louise immediately frowned and said angrily,

"Oh, you are simply unreasonable, little guy, didn't you hear that I was speaking for your old master!"

Amosta raised his hand, interrupted the argument between Louise and Hain, and asked in a deep voice,

"What happened next, Hain?"

Hain's breathing was still rapid, and it glared at Louise with a look full of disgust, but under the majesty of Amosta Brain, it did not dare to resist, and Kingsley on the other side also held back. The elf-like Louise is fuming.

"Hain has never seen the old master so angry."

The folds of skin on Hain's face trembled;

"He even pulled out his wand and threatened Master Adam. If he dared to leave, he would completely sever ties with him and send him to Eccles Tower."

"What's an Ecosta?"

Louise frowned and asked. Of course, she didn't want to pay attention to the house elf named Hain anymore. She stared at Amosta's side face and asked.

"A wizarding prison," Amosta said, casually asking "Did they do it?"

"No, Master Adam did not pull out his wand. He just stood at the door with his suitcase and looked at the old master with a smile. He said that he must do this, no matter the cost, no matter how many people would die. not give a damn about."

Louise's lips twitched. Her question had not been answered before.

"The old master was so angry that he wanted to use magic to trap Master Adam." Hain said in a sad tone, "But Miss Jasina stood up at this time. She was only seven years old at the time, but she She stood on the side of Master Adam and told the old master in a firm tone that she wanted to be with Master Adam and continue the struggle of her ancestors."

Recalling the scene at that time, Hain sobbed softly.

"The old master's heart was broken. He fell to the ground in anger, but Master Adam ignored him and left the house with Miss Jasina."

The story ends here, Hain told them that since then, Adam has never brought Jasna back to this house, and they have not seen each other for many years.

The three people on the riverside fell into silence. Louise and Kingsley's eyes fell on Amosta intentionally or unintentionally, waiting for his decision.

"Jasna Vogel."

Amosta's fists were tightly clenched behind his back, and he stood tall and tall by the river. He looked at the wheat fields reaching the sky with an expressionless expression. After a long time, he asked in a low voice,

"What was her original surname, Rozier?"

Hain's eyes widened in slight surprise, but then, it thought that Amosta Brain was investigating Miss Jasna. Perhaps, he learned about it from the investigation, so it nodded slowly.

After receiving Hain's confirmation, Amosta twitched the corners of his mouth and tightened his fists behind his back.

"Respectfully Mr. Blaine,"

Hesitating, Hain looked at the most popular figure among wizards in the current European magic world.

"Please forgive Haine for being rude. Can Haine ask Mr. Blaine for something?"
