"The Li family? Li Er?"
As the current head of the Black family, Pollux Black possessed considerable knowledge.
Although he had never heard of Li Er, he vaguely remembered that in that ancient Eastern nation, there were indeed numerous pure-blood families with the surname Li, and their lineages dated back an incredibly long time.
Furthermore, he knew Aberforth. Although Pollux had some issues with him, he knew he was Dumbledore's younger brother.
Aberforth typically only left his shabby tavern to carry out Dumbledore's commissions.
This meant that Aberforth's personal transport of these two children must have been Dumbledore's idea...
Now, with Dumbledore's growing reputation, even these arrogant pure-blood families were increasingly reluctant to underestimate him.
Therefore, when Pollux realized that Dumbledore had sent his own brother to personally transport these two children, he was already 90% convinced of Levid's words.
However, while he knew he was in the wrong, as a pure-blood, he couldn't admit his mistake so easily, no matter how wary he was of Levid's family!
His wife and children were watching!
"Hmph... If that's the case, I look forward to meeting your elders," Pallux said in a haughty tone.
However, his words implied he believed Levid's words.
After saying this, he should have just left in style.
But unexpectedly...
Levid said excitedly, "Really? Then let's make an appointment.
I happen to have an uncle visiting recently, and I heard he's not feeling well... Perhaps a sparring match with a British pure-blood wizard would help him feel better."
Pallux's face turned pale.
While he was a decent duelist, he couldn't help but feel a little timid
when he thought of the other party's millennia-old family heritage, and the fact that he delighted in a fight.
He must have been a master duelist... My children are still young, my wife is still young...
Besides, how can an elegant and noble pure-blood wizard engage in violence like a reckless man?!
"Haha, what a shame! I haven't had much time lately. I have so many things to deal with. Your uncle is lucky, otherwise... hehe..." Palux said this in an effort to save face.
Fearing that Levid would say something else, he hurriedly dragged his daughter towards the wall.
As the girl was dragged away, she continued to glare at Levid, her eyes filled with defiance.
Levid paid no attention to her, even looking back at her with a hint of condescending pity. As if pitying her for being born into such a "humble" family...
As Levid had expected, this look of pity nearly made the girl explode with anger.
However, before she could say a word, her father dragged her onto Platform 9 3/4. "Dad! You didn't really believe what that guy said, did you?" the girl said angrily as she stepped onto the platform.
"Walburga, do you think a Mudblood could be that confident?" Pallux said angrily. That boy looked even more pureblood than he did!
Walburga reflected on Levid's behavior and, in her heart, felt her father was right.
But... she just couldn't accept it! When had she ever been looked down upon like this?
Furious, Walburga pinched her brother fiercely. "Why didn't you speak up for me?" "Why did you pinch me?
This... it wasn't me who provoked you..." Alphard was utterly wronged.
He hadn't dared to say a word the entire time, yet he still couldn't escape his sister's clutches.
Irma, looking at her husband, couldn't help but say, "You've clearly had nothing to do lately...
Could it be that you're scared..." "Scared?
How could I be scared? I'm just... I'm just... Do you want to see me act like a reckless man and fight with others, Irma?"
Pallux said angrily.
"Well, it's just a misunderstanding, there's really no need..." Seeing that her husband's face was already flushed, Irma didn't say anything more.
Outside Platform 9 and 3/4.
After the Black family left, Levitra put away the expression on his face that was purer than a pure-blood wizard.
Turning around, he saw Aberforth and Tom looking at him with strange eyes.
Tom swallowed hard, and then asked, "Are you really from that...what Li family?" Levitra shrugged, "I'm talking nonsense. Tom, you don't believe it, do you?"
Tom was stunned, "Fake...fake?"
Levitra said it so confidently just now, and that look and expression made it seem like he was saying something that couldn't be more true.
But now he told himself that this was all fake?
Li Weide patted Tom's shoulder.
"I've said it before. When you're out in the world, you choose your own identity.
Anyway, our records at the orphanage were destroyed. I say I'm pureblood, so who can say I'm not?
Against such an arrogant fellow, you have to outdo him.
Of course, you have to match his strength, or you'll get beaten..."
Tom frowned. "Aren't you afraid of being exposed? What if there really is a pureblood family named Li..."
"Li is a common surname.
There are at least millions of people with the surname Li in China. There must be many pureblood families with the surname Li.
I didn't say which Li family it was.
He can find out if he wants," Li Weide said nonchalantly.
"Well, you're as good as you are, Weide. Shameless!" Tom sighed.
Li Weide stroked Nagini's cool, snake-like body in his hand and said leisurely, "I'm glad you compliment me, but I don't like your choice of words, Tom."
Tom was startled by this and quickly changed his tone.
"Ahem, I mean, you're quite clever indeed..."
As they spoke, neither noticed Aberforth's pensive expression.
In his opinion, perhaps what Levander said wasn't entirely a lie...
He decided to write to his brother when he got back.
Aberforth knew that his brother had always been very curious about Levander's background.
And now, based on what Levid said today, perhaps we can deduce some information about Levid's background.
Platform 9 and 3/4 was incredibly lively.
It was packed with Hogwarts students and parents who had come to see them off.
When Levid and the others entered, the Blacks were nowhere to be seen.
Aberforth had also hurried away after seeing them off to the train.
The Hogwarts Express was also crowded.
Fortunately, they arrived not too late, and Levid and Tom still found an empty compartment.
After putting away his suitcase, Levid sat down by the window.
Tom, contrary to his usual habit, did not sit down to read. He said a word to Levid and left the compartment.
Levid naturally knew what Tom was doing, so he did not stop him.
Instead, he chatted with Nagini in his half-baked Parseltongue.
Tom's eyes sparkled as he left the compartment.
The words Levid had said earlier had indeed touched his heart.
He planned to make some "friends" and discuss their family's "background" with them...
After his previous encounter with the Black family, Tom also knew what these pure-blood families were like. So, he could easily identify the pure-blood families without any need to distinguish them...
Tom casually walked along the middle of the train, glancing from compartment to compartment, searching for his target.
Suddenly, he stopped outside the door of a compartment, where the Black siblings were.
Hiding behind the door, Tom peeked inside.
Besides the siblings, there were several other people in the compartment.
The blond boy, leading the group, was talking to the girl.
However, the girl looked deeply unhappy, likely still holding a grudge against Levander.
Tom curled his lips in disdain.
"Can't stand a few words?"
Thinking back to the days when I...thinking of Levander's oppression, Tom couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Suddenly, the girl shouted, "None of your business! Malfoy! I'm really annoyed.
Can you please stop hanging around me all the time?"
Tom quickly walked away, watching from a distance as the blond boy, looking a little dusty, led a group of people out of the compartment.
He raised his hand and gently stroked his chin, as if thinking about something...
Levi was reading a book with Nagini in the carriage, bored.
He spread the book on the table in the compartment, and then asked Nagini to curl up in front of the book, so that the man and the snake could read together.
Nagini tapped the page with her tail, signaling Livid to turn the page.
Livid had just turned a page when he saw the door of the carriage was pulled open!
A blond boy and four or five other boys rushed in.
Livid looked up at them and vaguely saw a familiar figure hiding behind the door.
Livid immediately understood.
"I'm sorry, but this compartment can only accommodate two more people.
There's no room for all of you."
The blond boy glared at Levitra.
"You're the one who pissed off Walburga?"
Levitra frowned and looked up. "Who?"
"You're not going to play dumb, are you?"
Levitra shrugged. "Play dumb?
I don't even know who Walburga is."
"Looks like I have to teach you a lesson! Beat him up!"
The blond boy waved his hand, and the four or five boys behind him rushed forward!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The muffled sound of fists hitting bodies echoed in the compartment, and it took a long time for the sound to stop.
The blond boy, with bruises on his eyes, smirked and said, "Haha, now you're obedient..."
However, as he finished speaking, he felt a trance, and then everything changed.
Levitra, who he had been pinning to the ground and beating, had become his friend Flint!
Selwyn, Travers, and the others who had rushed in with him were clutching each other's collars, looking at each other in confusion.
The blond boy turned to see Levander, the man he was supposed to be beating up, standing with his arms folded beside a pale-faced Tom, looking at them like they were idiots.
"What...what's going on?
Abraxas, why are you hitting me?"
Flint, his face battered like a pig's, looked at Abraxas Malfoy, who was grabbing his collar, aggrieved.
"I...I was clearly hitting him, how could this happen..." Abraxas was a little confused.
Tom, who had been watching all this unfold, was filled with fear and anxiety.
It was Abraxas Malfoy who had instigated these people to come here.
He had observed that this Malfoy might have some interest in Miss Black.
Plus, Tom was very good at gaining people's trust.
So, Tom easily goaded Levander into giving him a lesson.
Tom had his plan made up.
If these guys could defeat Levid, it would be revenge.
If not, he could use this opportunity to see how strong these pure-blood peers were, and then assess his own strength.
After all, since he learned he was a wizard, he had only fought Levid, a wizard of his age...
But he hadn't expected... these guys had just rushed into the box with such force, and before they even drew their wands, they had inexplicably started fighting!
And Levid, the target of this attack, picked up Nagini and leisurely walked past the brawl, then came over to watch the fun...
"You... what did you do to us?"
It was obvious by now, and even the dumbest Abraxas could guess that the fight was related to Levid.
"Strange, what does your fight have to do with me?"
Levid said innocently.
"I was also wondering why you came to my box to fight?"
Levid's words left Abraxas speechless.
The other students on the train had long been drawn to the noise.
They were gathered around, pointing and gossiping.
Embarrassed by the crowd, Abraxas's face flushed crimson.
"You bastard! You must have done something to us!"
Furious, Abraxas rushed forward, ready to continue beating Levid.
Suddenly, he stopped, and along with his friends, they stared at Levid in horror, as if they had witnessed something utterly terrifying.
"Ah..."
The next moment, the boys scrambled through the crowd like mad and ran.
Tom stared at the scene, stunned and bewildered.
He knew Levid must have done something, but what exactly had he done?
He hadn't even drawn his wand!
Just as Tom was lost in thought, he felt a hand on his shoulder.
Then, Levid's voice drifted into his ear.
"Tom, your friends are so interesting!
They were so worried we'd get bored in the car that they came over to give us this fun entertainment..."
Hearing the word "friends," Tom shuddered.
"No, you misunderstood... I'm not close to them... Seriously!
Just trust me!"
