Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 142

"Alright, brother, there's no point in arguing with these people. I don't care about these things... If you wanted this invention, I would have given it to you long ago."

It's a pity my brother doesn't want any of that; he always stays true to himself. I should thank him for setting such a good example for me!

"Oh, when will you brothers be able to be like Darren and Harry? Then I can die in peace!"

"Mrs. Weasley said softly."

"No, Mom, in order to avoid your death, we're going to do the opposite of what they're doing!"

"Yes, yes, Mom, how could you say such nonsense... Ah, Mom, it's wrong of you to hit people like that! You just said that Dad and Malfoy were fighting!"

Fred and George said, "That's just asking for trouble."

Because of their bickering, everyone calmed down by the time they arrived at the Leaky Cauldron.

At the Leaky Cauldron, they needed to ship all the things they bought back.

The Granger family also needs to leave the Leaky Cauldron and go to the Muggle world outside of it.

Before leaving, Mr. Weasley wanted to ask what Muggle bus stations were like, but seeing Mrs. Weasley's expression, he quickly shut his mouth.

Almost instantly, Darren and his friends' summer vacation came to an end.

On their last night, Mrs. Weasley cooked them a big meal and shared a large cake before letting them go home to sleep.

As Darren went upstairs, he saw Ginny looking at him as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. He followed her to ask her more details, but Ginny coaxed him away.

He suspected it was about the diary.

Because he also saw Lucius, just like in the original story, stuff the book into Ginny's hands.

But Ginny didn't tell him, so he could only pretend he didn't know and let things develop as they pleased.

In fact, even if Ginny told him, he would pretend not to know and let things take their course.

But it might have ruined my image. Luckily, I didn't say anything. Early the next morning.

They got up very early because there was a lot of stuff to pack.

Mrs. Weasley got angry several times before they were finally allowed to get into the car peacefully.

However, as soon as they got on the bus, they were all forced to get off again because two elderly people had arrived.

These are two very old people. They look like they've lived for hundreds of years.

Upon seeing them, Mr. Weasley immediately stopped the car and exclaimed in astonishment, "These are Mr. Lemaître and his wife! What are they doing here?"

Harry and Ron, the twin brothers, both stared intently at Darren. They both knew that Darren was likely to be adopted by the Flamels.

"Hello, we're looking for Darren, Darren Porter..."

The two elderly men's eyes swept over the Weasleys. After all, Darren was also red-haired.

"Hello, I'm Darren, Darren Porter!"

Darren walked out of the crowd somewhat nervously, his bright green eyes revealing his unease.

He clearly knew Nicolas Flamel's purpose in coming, but was somewhat reluctant to accept it.

"Oh, child, don't worry, would you like to go for a walk with us?"

Oh, right, Weasleys…you can go to the station first. I'll personally take Darren to Hogwarts, so you don't need to worry about him!

Although Nicolas Flamel was smiling, he remained very authoritative. Mr. Weasley had no choice but to agree repeatedly.

And they assured Nicolas Flamel that they would not disturb him.

Chapter 146 Can I give it to my brother?!

After saying goodbye to Harry, Darren walked with Nicolas Flamel and his wife through the wide streets of London.

He had recognized the old man as the person in that scene card long ago.

No wonder Nicolas Flamel suddenly wanted to acknowledge him; it turned out to be because of this. Although he had guessed it beforehand.

"Child, don't you have anything to ask me?"

Nicolas Flamel walked beside Darren with his hands behind his back, sporting a dignified expression.

Darren rolled his eyes. He had seen the old man fall to the ground in a disheveled state before, so he wasn't afraid at all.

However, he probably doesn't remember what happened in the scene card at this point, so we should still show some respect.

He then remained silent for a moment before saying, "You probably want me as your successor, perhaps because you heard Headmaster Dumbledore say that I am very intelligent."

"Furthermore, I once protected the Philosopher's Stone, so you've decided to give me a chance?"

He asked hesitantly.

His expression was somewhat reluctant.

Clearly, he had no intention of agreeing to be Nicolas Flamel's successor, but he had no choice but to come over.

This made Nicolas Flamel laugh in exasperation.

Even though he knows how precious the opportunity to be his successor is, this guy still looks so unwilling.

So this guy thinks he only has one magic stone? And all he thinks about is immortality?

Nicolas Flamel had no idea that Darren was faking it; he thought Darren simply didn't like the life-extending effect of his Philosopher's Stone, which was why he was acting this way.

"I have made numerous inventions in my life. Although the Philosopher's Stone is my most famous invention, I have been involved in many things in the magical world..."

So, do you realize how invaluable this opportunity you've received?

Nicolas Flamel spoke haughtily, waiting for Darren to come and fawn over him.

In the past, everyone would fawn over him whenever they saw him, but this little brat treated him like an ordinary person both times he met him.

“Nico…~”…

Perenel rolled his eyes at Nicolas Flamel.

She wanted to talk to the child, but why was it just this old man pretending? Nicolas Flamel waved her hand, not letting her interfere. She sighed and looked at Darren with pity.

This old man is getting weirder and weirder.

If you try to please him, he'll get angry; if you don't try to please him, he'll get angry too. I wonder what Darren will choose?

Both options would be criticized by Nico.

Hopefully, Darren can withstand Nicolas Flamel's initial show of force.

Actually, Nicolas Flamel hadn't intended to intimidate Darren. It was Darren who had been so cold and distant; he was the one who spoke to the brat first.

This little brat is nothing like the well-behaved character in the mind's eye. Perenel sighed beside him.

This old man is so old, yet he still has quite a temper. She looked at Darren.

Darren was also watching them when he suddenly bowed deeply to the two of them.

Perenel shook his head. This kid isn't as naive as Nicolas Flamel made him out to be; he gave in so quickly!

It's obviously because they want to learn those things.

Even Nicolas Flamel frowned!

He clearly saw Darren in his mental world; he shouldn't be behaving like this.

Just as the two were getting a little upset, they heard Darren hesitate and say...

"Sir and Madam are both very capable people, so could you please change my status as heir to my brother?"

I want my brother to get this opportunity. I'm just an ordinary kid, maybe a good student.

But my brother is the savior; he should be your successor. I don't think I'm qualified!

"Don't you know what Lemaître represents?"

Nicolas Flamel was silent for a moment before asking.

He never expected that Darren would change his attitude because he wanted them to change the heir to Harry.

Although in the eyes of many people, this is a small matter.

But to the Nicolas Flamels, this was a very big deal. They had lived too long and seen too much backstabbing and intrigue.

I've never seen such a precious opportunity given to someone else's child.

“I know what the surname Lemaître represents, Patsy told me, but I still feel unworthy of it.”

My brother, who saved the world, didn't get this opportunity, but I, who did nothing, did. I feel it's unfair to my brother!
