Chapter 548

Under normal circumstances, Maca is actually a thick-skinned guy. He didn't show any concern about the eyes gathered around him, and walked directly to the main entrance of Beauxbaton Castle calmly.

And the one who got out of the car after him was of course the housekeeper, Miss Fanny Blois.

Fanny's unique family robe is easy to distinguish, because it has exquisite silk embroidery changed from the coat of arms of the Bulova family, which can be seen clearly from a long distance.

As a result, the wizards in the vestibule garden immediately set their sights on Fanny, who was following Maca's footsteps. Among them, there were also the forces in the magic world in France, as well as wizards from other countries.

The Blois family is the leading wizard family in France. The power of one family alone is already able to gain a foothold in the highest level of the world's magic world. A wizard family like this, no matter at home or abroad, will be treated with caution.

It's not that there are no forces stronger than the Bulova family present, but no one is willing to have unnecessary disputes with other top forces for such a big force that has developed to such an extent. Whether it is fighting openly with swords or guns, or going back and forth in secret, it will cause varying degrees of burden on the daily operation of forces.

However, when they saw the members of the Bulova family following Namaka McLean like a entourage, many people immediately murmured in their hearts.

How did the two get together? The situation is not good?

It is not surprising to form cliques in power disputes. It can be said that behind every power that is getting bigger and bigger, it has more or less experienced this kind of choice. They are either active or passive, and they may even have some schemes to drive away wolves and tigers. Sometimes prosperity and decline are just a thought away.

However, it is very rare for forces at the level of Hogwarts and the Bulova family to support each other.

Usually, the more solid the foundation and the deeper the power, the more cautious they will be. No one wants to lose all the advantages accumulated by the predecessors if they are not careful when they are in charge of their own affairs.

What's more, these two major forces have maintained a very low-key style of conduct in recent years. Why are they walking together so swaggeringly this time?

For a while, many wizards with active minds started to think about whether they should also cooperate with others or something? At least as far as this time is concerned, there are quite a few forces gathered in Beauxbatons. If you want to get enough benefits from this opportunity, it may not be so interesting to rely on yourself alone.

Regardless of other people's thoughts, Maca just calmly walked slowly on the stone road in the middle of the garden, as if unaware of all kinds of sights, and quickly passed the main gate of the castle, in the sight of those wizards Disappeared.

It can be seen that the legacy of Nick Flamel is a huge temptation without a doubt. Not to mention anything else, just a method of making the Sorcerer's Stone that is very likely to have been recorded is enough to make wizards all over the world drool.

Everyone understands that if this thing is really made public, it will be a great waste. Of course, the so-called "waste" refers to their respective forces.

Speaking of the Sorcerer's Stone, Maca used it to fool the Werther family that Charlotte belongs to. Now that Voldemort has really fallen, he can't say when the other party will suddenly appear in front of him. .

It can be said that the wizards of the Werther family may come to him for the Philosopher's Stone at any time, and it is not impossible to show up directly at Beauxbatons this time.

The news of Maca's arrival in Beauxbaton spread quickly. Not long after he entered the hall, the tall and burly Mrs. Maxime came out from the door at the end of the hall.

"McLean, goodbye last time, long time no see."

Madam Maxime was still so dignified and imposing, paying attention to etiquette and manners in every gesture, which was exactly the feeling that Beauxbaton School of Witchcraft and Magic had always given people.

It can be seen from the fact that she didn't add a title like "Mr." after Maca's surname. The previous experience with the giant tribe made her no longer regard Maca as an ordinary guest.

"Good morning, ma'am." Maca smiled politely at the other party. "Before I set off this time, Hagrid asked me to say hello to you! If he still had to teach the students, I miss him It must have followed today."

"Oh," Madame Maxime covered her mouth with a smile, "I will try my best to find time to go to Hogwarts to bother me, I believe I won't make him wait... Remember to ask him to prepare some more single malt whiskey, that is last time That brand he got at the Tri-finals—all the rune horses in my school seem to like it!"

"Of course, of course!" Maca nodded again and again, "Hagrid understands the thoughts of magical creatures very well, and it's the right thing to let him take care of those little ones."

Talking about family affairs and reminiscing about the past in public places is one of the necessary abilities when going out to socialize. Although most of these conversations are mediocre, and often even make uninformed observers feel bored, they often contain some information that both parties want to convey.

Maca and Mrs. Maxim had just met, and confirmed their respective intentions during the gossip. What they are talking about is the alchemy competition that will be formally promoted next.

In fact, it is not yet a certainty where this competition will be held. In theory, except for Beauxbaton's need to avoid suspicion, it is actually possible to do it anywhere.

However, there are three forces in the final decision on the venue.

The first force is naturally the International Federation of Wizards. This parliamentary organization composed of many national forces is the largest neutral organization in the world of magic. Many laws and regulations that are recognized by everyone are born from this organization;

And the second force is the butler of Nick Lemay's house——Mr. Edward Lemay. This old butler, who has been loyal to the LeMay family from the beginning to the end, will be the final interpreter of this inheritance disclosure event, and it can be said to be the center of the entire event;

As for the last one who can decide the venue of the event, it should have been Albus Dumbledore, a rare good friend of Mr. Nick Flamel during his lifetime. But now, Dumbledore has also passed away...

As a result, this decision-making power eventually lost its ownership. It is also because of this that the major forces have rushed to try to get a foot in here.

Of course, on the bright side, those forces came here under the banner of participating in the competition.

Now that Mrs. Maxim mentioned going to Hogwarts as a guest, it was naturally to inform Maca that she had officially agreed to cooperate with each other.

After reaching a tacit agreement with Mrs. Maxim, Maca reached out behind her to signal.

"This is Miss Fanny Blois, a promising steward of the Blois family." He introduced with a smile, "Miss Blois came with me this time, but there is no special meaning— —she has heard of the beautiful palace of Beauxbaton Castle for a long time, and has always wanted to visit it!"

Speaking of this, Maca paused for a while, but continued: "Oh, yes! On the way here today, she also said that she wanted to visit Hogwarts! If Madam can join her Professor McGonagall will be very happy to come to visit you!"

When Maca said these words, Fanny behind him still only had a formulaic smile. Even though she had never said anything similar, she was still unmoved, as if she had really mentioned it.

Regarding the professional ability of this heroic female steward, Maca couldn't help but secretly nodded.

"Oh, that sounds pretty good," Madam Maxim said happily, "Well...McLean, you must be a little tired after traveling so far, I'll let someone take you to choose a room to stay in first! Furong—"

As she spoke, she turned around and shouted, and Maca saw the figure of the acquaintance immediately.

"McLean, please!"

The power of the Veela hybrid is not superficial. Although somehow, it doesn't seem to have much effect on Maca, but just looking at the gazes of the males in this hall, you can tell that the rate of turning heads is simply out of bounds.

At the other party's invitation, Maca and Fanny followed.

"Miss Delacour," Maca asked curiously while walking, "If I remember correctly, you should have graduated, right?"

Fu Rong walked in front, and when she heard Maca's question, she turned her head and smiled at him.

"Our Beauxbatons system is different from yours at Hogwarts," she said. "After graduation, if a student is willing to continue studying with a specific professor, they can submit an application for advanced study. I plan to go deeper Learn Legilimency and get a review position in the French Ministry of Magic."

"Oh, that might sound quite suitable for you." Maca suddenly said, "I remember that the core of your wand is your grandmother's hair - it takes quite a keen eye to use Veela's hair as a core. heart."

"Do you remember this?" Fleur was stunned for a moment, but then she smiled again, "Could it be that Mr. McLean is interested in him?"

Maca shrugged nonchalantly when she heard it.

"I just have a good memory!"

He lightly avoided the joke.

Probably because she sensed the sense of distance that Maca deliberately kept, Fu Rong didn't continue to chase after her. She led the way, and after a long corridor and a staircase, she soon led Maca to a door.

"This is the room the principal prepared for you, but we didn't expect you to bring a lady with you—" Furong looked at Fanny who had been following Maca, "Miss Blois, if you don't If you don't mind, we do have some spare guest rooms, but they might be a little small! See—"
