Chapter 88: Was She Very Beautiful ?
August 21st, evening!
Ethan, who had just arrived home, was faced with a pile of letters handed over by the servants.
Ethan had told the servants, when he went to Hogwarts to go to school, that all the letters sent by owls should be kept.
So, even though the servants were somewhat peculiar, they still carefully kept them.
Ethan flipped through a few letters, including those from the twins Cedric, Harry, his roommate, Draco, and some other young classmates with whom he had a good relationship.
The twins and Cedric invited Ethan to stay at their house for a while and introduced their inventions from this summer.
The roommate complained about not being able to cast spells and then introduced the interesting things he had discovered this summer, suggesting they make plans to meet up.
Draco sent several letters, asking if Ethan was at home and when he could visit.
Harry was thanking Ethan for helping him reconcile with his aunt's family and for having a good summer. He wanted to invite Ethan to visit the Dursleys, who were also quite welcoming at this time.
But Harry, why do you need to send mail even though it's so close?
They are all in Surrey, and it only takes ten minutes to ride a bike.
The next step was to reply to the letters. Everyone who sent a letter to Ethan received a reply.
The owls had been busy these days, so Ethan called Hermione and the others to inform them that he had returned from France.
For the next three days, Ethan stayed mainly at home with his parents. School was about to start again, and he wouldn't see them for several months.
He took half a day off to go to London.
He spent the afternoon sitting in a café with Hermione and Cho Chang, mainly talking about their summer vacations. Of course, Ethan was the main topic of conversation for the two girls.
At the same time, he went to Knockturn Alley and picked up Onyxia. As soon as they met, Onyxia seemed particularly excited and even spat on Ethan's face in celebration.
When Ethan left, Onyxia was still a small dragon with a body length of just over two meters. He didn't expect that in these fifty days, it would grow to five meters. Considering it takes two years for a fire dragon to become an adult, Onyxia was still a baby of just over three months.
In the future, it might grow to exceed twenty meters.
And it could already fly stably. When Ethan left, Onyxia could only flap its wings and couldn't fly at all.
Ethan tried riding on its back, and it flew well and stably, but unfortunately, he didn't unlock the achievement of dragon rider.
After saying goodbye to Dennis and others, Ethan put Onyxia and Nagini into the box together.
When they parted, Ethan saw Dennis and the other two with tears of reluctance.
It wasn't until he received the letter from Cassandra that Ethan prepared to go out. After all, he had promised it from the beginning.
They could either go to the black market to find a merchant specializing in teleportation or use the Muggle way of travel.
In the end, Ethan chose the Muggle way, taking a plane to Exeter in Devonshire and then finding a place to meet up there.
It only takes an hour to get there by plane, which is quite convenient, and you can still know where you are.
Using a fireplace and Floo powder, if you're not familiar with the local area, you wouldn't even know where you are when you arrive.
There seem to be many famous wizards living in Devonshire.
Nico mentioned that he also had a residence here and lived here for a while but eventually moved to France.
After Newt Scamander retired, he also lived here with his wife and pets, but it is estimated that the British Ministry of Magic does not welcome him very much.
By the way, whether I want to build a whole house here, a manor, a castle, etc., I can't afford it. It should be okay for ordinary ones, but I spend most of my time at Hogwarts.
There are no other wizards at home, which seems like a bit of a waste!
Beside the Exe River, according to the location provided by Cassandra, Ethan successfully met her.
"Cassandra, you're as beautiful as ever!"
Ethan gave her a hug when they met. She's still so petite!
When will she grow to her mother's size?
"Hmph, I don't need you to tell me!"
Cassandra snorted arrogantly but didn't push Ethan away. She missed him greatly after not seeing or contacting him for so long.
After a while, the two separated and walked hand in hand along the banks of the Exe River towards Cassandra's manor.
Her manor isn't far from here, but there is a Muggle-repelling spell around it, so Muggles can't see it.
"I'm telling you, my mother is angry. You said you would come to my house as a guest, but you made her wait for so long, and now summer vacation is almost over.
"Also, my mother knew that I took the Fire Escape Charm and the Gubraithian Fire from home last time, and she knew you wanted them."
"Really?"
"Of course. But she forgave you after my persuasion. This is all thanks to me".
"Thank you very much . This is my gift to you." Ethan said giving her a brooch
Cassandra put it on with great excitement, and the smile on her face was unmistakable.
Although it is a wholesale product, the effect isn't bad, is it?
It's just that Hogwarts has set up anti-apparition wards, so the brooch's effect is greatly reduced.
Next, Ethan shared his experiences in France during this period, focusing on Nico's alchemy home and his own studies, briefly mentioning other things.
But Cassandra still grasped the key points.
Halfway through, Cassandra's face, which had been smiling like a flower, suddenly turned cold.
"So, is Fleur Delacour, the half-blood veela, very beautiful?"
As a pure-blood, she naturally knew about veelas. Some families even kept veelas in captivity, and she had also seen them at pure-blood banquets.
They were displayed by the host family to show off. This creature is quite beautiful and has an amazing charm. Even her father was initially attracted to it, but her mother suppressed it. As for half-blood veelas, Cassandra didn't know.
But she knew Ethan's tastes. He didn't like unattractive girls at all.
And it was too much that he could be interested in foreign girls just to learn alchemy.
"Very beautiful!"
Ethan nodded honestly.
Like Hermione and the others, he was very good at grasping the key points.
The first person he asked about wasn't Nicolas Flamel or his alchemy hut, but Fleur.
But I, Ethan, should be open and fearless in my life.
There is no point in hiding. Sooner or later, she will find the truth.
"Hmph!"
Cassandra snorted coldly, and the hand she had just held turned 180 degrees to wrap around Ethan's waist.
Now he is not satisfied with Hogwarts and has found Beauxbatons to find girls. He is really something!
If he doesn't restrain himself, will there be girls from Durmstrang and Ilvermorny in the future?
Africa, Asia, all races gathered together—it's scary to think about!
It seems I should have a serious talk with him after school starts; I can't let this continue.
Arriving at the gate of the manor, Cassandra took Ethan's hand and walked inside.
She didn't need to hide anything at home, after all, her mother had clearly said she would support her. As for her father, her mother suppressed him and said, "There's nothing towory."
"You're not lying. This manor is really big."
Unlike the Delacour family's manor, which is full of flowers and decorations, Cassandra's manor is simple and elegant but covers a large area.
"Of course I'm not lying. I invited you to come, but you didn't. I still had to get my mother's help."
Cassandra remembered she had invited Ethan during Christmas but was rejected.
"Isn't it here?"
Walking along the stone floor, she made her way to the front door, where Cassandra's parents, Amos and Belinda, were waiting.
Cassandra's mother was particularly enthusiastic and didn't even notice her daughter, pulling Ethan inside.
She was very satisfied with everything about Ethan except that he liked to mess with girls. He was good enough to bridge the gap between pure-bloods and Muggles and might become the next Dumbledore or Voldemort.
One reason was that Cassandra liked him. Once the child's choice was set, she would not listen to her at all, and she couldn't really persuade her.
For this reason, she could only help Cassandra become the final winner.
With Ethan's looks, talents, and future achievements, as long as Cassandra can secure her position as his wife, she couldn't control what happened next as long as Cassandra didn't mind.
This kind of thing is not uncommon among pure-bloods, but her husband is so dominated by her that he doesn't have the courage.
Anyway, she feels her daughter has a great chance of winning. With this family and her looks, how can she lose?
In her opinion, her daughter was the perfect girl for the position of Ethan's first wife.
Ethan gave Cassandra a look for help. He was overwhelmed by her mother's enthusiasm!
Who knew that Cassandra turned a blind eye and seemed quite happy to follow her mother.
Mr. Vole stood alone at the door, feeling petrified.
His daughter was taken away, and now even his wife ignored him. What a life...
"Amos, what are you doing?"
"I'm coming!"
Hearing his wife's voice, the petrified Amos Vole snapped out of it and hurried to the banquet hall.
The family banquet of Cassandra's family was quite sumptuous. Except for Mr. Amos's silence, the laughter of Ethan, Cassandra, and Belinda lasted throughout the dinner.
In the middle, they talked about Ethan's experiences in France, things in the Muggle world, and some interesting aspects of Cassandra's childhood.
