The Days of Drawing at Hogwarts Chapter 118 The Ancient and Decline of the Lestranges

Lestrange is an ancient family of pure-blood wizards. It originated in France, and it is only its British branch that is called the pure-blooded twenty-eight saints.

However, now the family has passed away. The only male heirs of the entire Strange family were two Rodolphs and his younger brother Rabastan—including Bellatrix, the Blake family, there were only three of them. Just Trange.

The reason for the decline of the Strange family is the common language of the Habsburg dynasty in the non-magical world. As extreme pure-blood supremacists, the members of the Lestrange family will practice inbreeding just like the Gaunt family in order to ensure the purity of their blood.

Anyone with a little knowledge of biology knows how harmful consanguineous marriages can be. Even if the extraordinary creatures such as wizards have the so-called setting of "the purer the bloodline, the more powerful", there is also the setting that the more powerful the species, the harder it is to give birth to offspring! Therefore, the Strange family members gradually became thinner.

There are three bloodlines in the Lystrange family: the Radolphs bloodline of Randolphus Lystrange, the origin of which is rooted in England. At present, it has completely fallen to Voldemort, and the last heir has all become Death Eaters.

The second is located in the main French vein: the Corbos bloodline. This branch is the only branch of the three bloodlines of the Strange family that is not inbred. In every generation of Corvus blood there is an heir named Corvus Lestrange. It is worth noting that the word "Corvus" means raven in Latin, which may be related to the Ravenclaw known as "The Raven's Claw". The descendant of this branch is named Rita Lestrange, and she has a younger brother named Cobos Lestrange. The Corvus V was shipwrecked at the age of one—another tragedy.

Leta Lestrange went to Hogwarts, and she had a classmate named Newt Scamander. During her time at Hogwarts, she was often the target of bullying. The girl who bullied her was Gryffindor. Gryffindor students bullying Slytherin students... It can be seen that Gryffindor House is not all positive.

But she met Newt. Because of the same strong interest in magical animals. So while at school, she developed a friendship with Newt Scamander, pure friendship. Newt even offered to take the punishment for her and was expelled from Hogwarts.

Rita was eventually buried in the flames unleashed by Grindelwald at the Père Lachaise cemetery in Paris, and the Corvus bloodline was cut off.

The third bloodline is the Cyril bloodline branched off from the Corvus bloodline, and the descendant is Nogia Lestrange. Considering the origin of consanguineous marriage, she may have something to hide.

In a word, by the time of Rodolphus' generation, the huge Lestrange family was close to withering, and the blood of Kobos and Cyril were all cut off.

"First Clan"

"Fantastic stuff!" Tom had only one comment on Rabastan, which was under the control of the Ministry of Magic. He was the only heir to the Strange family.

As long as he takes him, it is enough to pry open Lord Gring's treasure house of the Strange family. Not to mention the Hufflepuff Gold Cup, which was made into a Horcrux, the accumulation of the Strange family over the centuries is enough to make Tom's heart move.

Tom, with almost no hesitation, decided to keep the Strange family's treasure for himself.

Dumbledore, who patiently listened to Phineas' "Science", didn't think so deeply. He was planning how to launch this assault. After Phineas finished speaking, he also had a general idea in his mind.

"Tom, I have something very important to ask of you," he said earnestly, staring into Tom's eyes: "I want you to raid Malfoy Manor with members of the Order of the Phoenix."

Tom's heart nearly stopped when Dumbledore said he had something very important to ask himself to do.

This is Dumbledore's request! How could it be something simple? Dumbledore solemnly asks him to do his own business, can't he let himself buy a box of high-end chocolates, right?

Knowing that it was such a trivial matter as the raid on Malfoy Manor, Tom did not let his guard down. Again, it was Dumbledore's request. He knew that he would definitely participate in the attack on Malfoy Manor, but he invited himself to go, which showed that he must do something.

Sure enough, Dumbledore's next words made Tom want to jump up and grab his beard.

"I can't go with you for this operation." Dumbledore said in a very serious tone.

"Why?" Tom lowered his eyes, feeling a little uneasy: Voldemort is at Malfoy Manor, if Dumbledore doesn't go, who will stop Voldemort? Tom himself?

"I need to stay here, lest Riddle abandon his servants and head straight for Hogwarts - then Hogwarts may be in for a catastrophe." Watts became famous, but also bound by Hogwarts.

Because he was worried that Hogwarts, where he was away, would be captured by Voldemort, Dumbledore was like being bound and could not easily leave Hogwarts. He is obviously a big living person~www.novelbuddy.com~ but he is the same as the Earthbound Spirit.

Dumbledore's concerns were not groundless. Voldemort had just shot down Azkaban with a carbine, and Dumbledore couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't repeat the same trick at Hogwarts.

Tom also felt that Dumbledore was right, but it was difficult for him to accept the fact emotionally.

Can he fight Voldemort now? he does not know. Even Voldemort, who was wounded by Dumbledore, was an extremely terrifying Dark Lord, which must not be underestimated.

Dumbledore looked into Tom's eyes and said seriously, "I won't let you die, I've come up with a plan."

After Dumbledore told Tom the plan, even Tom, who was really going to take risks, felt that Dumbledore's strategy was feasible.

However, he did not agree immediately, but made a small condition.

"I need a transfer order, Rabastan is of great use to me." Tom offered his conditions without hesitation.

Dumbledore gave Tom a deep look. He understood what Tom was thinking.

"The Strange family is not extinct, and I highly doubt that a single prisoner will be able to enter the Gringotts vault."

Tom smiled slightly, and the Strange family would be extinct. As a second-time Death Eater wizard, Tom would not show mercy to them. As for the goblins in Gringotts, Tom felt that they had better be acquainted with each other, just take the steps he gave them and go down, but don't be too self-willed.
