Dynavale and Hogwarts

Chapter 0397 Little Joseph’s request

;

Seeing the embarrassed expression on Dana's face, little Joseph quickly realized that in his haste, he had said the wrong thing. He quickly corrected me: "I mean, please keep an eye on me while I break the curse."

Dana felt relieved, it would be much easier just to look after him.

So he said: "Okay, no problem. Congratulations on finding a way to break the curse." As he was saying happily, he suddenly saw the expression on little Joseph's face. It was complicated and difficult to understand, but it had nothing to do with happiness.

His heart sank, and he asked tentatively: "Do I need to prepare or do anything during the care?"

Little Joseph shook his head and said: "If it fails unfortunately, you can help me deliver this letter. Write the address and name on the envelope. Then, find a place in the Forbidden Forest to bury me. Buried in It would be nice under the giant tree of Senior Snake King."

Having said this, an ugly smile appeared on the corner of little Joseph's mouth, and his eyes that used to be smart became dull.

Dana felt a pain in his heart. He was not asked to take care of him here, but he was clearly asked to handle the funeral affairs by himself.

It seems that the risk of breaking the curse is huge, and if it fails, people will die. He secretly made up his mind that no matter what, no matter what the cost, he would not let his companion suffer misfortune.

At this time, he no longer cared about respecting privacy, and asked anxiously: "Why are you so anxious? Can't you wait until you find a safer and more reliable way to break the curse?"

Big drops of tears rolled down from the corners of little Joseph's eyes, and finally burst into tears. After a while, he stopped crying and said with choked sobs: "There is no time, it is almost too late, my uncle is going to die."

Dana was confused by his meaningless words and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, please explain clearly slowly, and we will find a solution together."

Little Joseph felt sad, shook his head and said: "It's useless. In the past two months, I have tried every possible way. Unless this damn curse can be broken."

"If I am completely helpless, I can only forget it, but now there is a glimmer of hope. No matter what, I will give it a try." Little Joseph had a determined look on his face.

Sighing, Dana asked: "Even if it costs his life"

"Even if it costs my life, I won't hesitate to do it." Little Joseph said decisively. Then he seemed to fall into memories again and said slowly: "My father passed away due to a curse when I was very young. I was raised by my uncle."

A smile appeared on little Joseph's face and he continued: "He was only a half-grown child at that time, so it was very hard to take care of me. But he did his best to give me a wonderful childhood. He doted on me very much, Except for one thing.

"That was to supervise my learning of magic. At that time, he would be extremely strict. I was still young and ignorant, and I often got into trouble with him over this matter.

"Later, I learned that the curse on my family will become more and more serious as I grow older. I must master magic while I am still young so that I can protect myself from accidents that will continue to occur in the future.

"The uncle who practices magic with me is the most dangerous one. Maybe one of the spells I cast will cause him to have an accident and lose his life due to the curse. He is risking his life to teach me magic."

Dana recalled that when he first entered Hogwarts, little Joseph's magic level and practical experience were far beyond his own. He couldn't help but lament that he was learning magic out of interest, while little Joseph was learning magic to save his life. It was only natural that there was such a gap.

"As I grew older, I relied on the magic I learned to escape from accidents again and again, and then I understood my uncle's painstaking efforts."

Is the curse in Little Joseph's family so evil? In my impression, little Joseph had no accidents.

As if reading his mind, little Joseph said: "When I received the notice of Hogwarts, my uncle listened to the words of a master of prophecy and insisted on sending me to Hogwarts against all odds.

"Before that, the name Shafiq had been silent in the magic world for many years. In the family, all the children received magic education at home. You can imagine how much pressure my uncle was under at that time.

"However, the twist of my fate did happen." Little Joseph looked at Dana and continued: "I walked into the train compartment according to what the master of prophecy said, and then I met you.

"I was surprised to find that the number of accidents that happened to me dropped sharply. Especially when I am with you, accidents will never happen."

Dana was dumbfounded when he heard that he had turned into a koi. It was too exaggerated to be able to help people transport people.

"Not only that," little Joseph continued: "Because of you, I got to know the senior Snake King, delayed the onset of the curse, and even obtained the inheritance of Slytherin. This is something I never dreamed of before. .”

With that said, little Joseph took out Slytherin's locket from his arms and said, "By the way, if something bad happens to me, please find another successor for the Slytherin legacy."

Shouldn't this locket be in Sirius's hands? How could it be in little Joseph's possession? Before he could ask, little Joseph took the initiative to explain: "This was obtained from Mr. Black with a treasure collected by my family.

"I didn't have high hopes. I just wanted to do my best as the heir to the Slytherin inheritance. Unexpectedly, Mr. Black agreed immediately. Now that I think about it, it's a bit incredible."

Dana could somewhat guess some of Sirius's thoughts. Maybe he was thinking about things. Seeing this locket reminded him of his brother whom he had misunderstood, so he wanted to get rid of it. Out of sight, out of mind.

However, he did not take the locket and said, "Why don't you pass it on to someone in your family?"

Little Joseph sighed leisurely: "Except for me and my uncle, there are no other pure-blood wizards in the family."

Dana was greatly surprised. In the past, he always felt that little Joseph's family had many people, so they were very well informed. How could there be only two purebloods left?

"My ancestors were accidentally cursed during an expedition to the Egyptian pyramids. At first, they didn't pay much attention to it. It wasn't until accidents happened frequently in the family, and after ruling out the possibility that someone was deliberately targeting them, that they realized that this curse had affected the entire family. .

"The family has tried many ways to save themselves. First, they split into multiple families, stopped using the surname Shafiq, moved out of the ancestral home, and found other places to live in the magical world and even the Muggle world, hoping to break the curse. But it failed.

"After discovering that the curse originated from the bloodline, the family began to intermarry with half-bloods or Muggles, hoping to lift the curse by changing the bloodline, but with little success, and this attempt also failed. From then on, only our main branch remained. It's pure blood.

"Later, everyone began to study the curse again, hoping to find a way to break it, but to this day, they have not found it. They are still suffering from the curse: even if they don't die in accidents, they will be riddled with diseases due to the curse and die young."
