章節 64: Setting Up Everything (III) & Gringotts (II)... {EDITED}

[POV Reo]

After telling him my name Bonecrusher immediately wanted me to drag to his office so that we could settle the accounts of Ravenclaw which were frozen for more than 200 hundred years. Bonecrusher inherited the job as our account manager from his father Skincrawler. They really have some weird names though...

(A/N: I have decided the MC and his harem members to take fake names only for this world. The Wizengamot always looks down on magical people from other countries. So, I thought it would be much better like this)

"Wait! I want these three to also take the inheritance test" I said while gesturing towards Momo, Rumi, and Nemuri. Both Bladerazer and Bonecrusher looked at me like I killed someone's baby.

"You are the first muggle-born to get a family inheritance and you still want to take tests for them? Several thousand magical people have taken these tests every year and returned empty-handed. You are the luckiest person I have ever seen in my 117 years long life" Bladerazer said looking enraged.

"It's just a simple curiosity... just entrain us" I said and both goblins in the room just grunted and Bladerazer sat back in his chair and pushed the knife and bowl to Rumi. Rumi picked up the knife and sliced up her hand and filled the bowl with blood.

When the bowl was filled the same thing happened as it happened with me, Rumi's hand healed up without leaving behind and blood or mark. Bladerazer poured her blood in a similar parchment. Bladerazer looked bored slightly at first like he was sure that nothing would happen but the next moment his eyebrows shot up and his eyes grew completely wide. He glared at the parchment wanting to burn a hole in it. The older goblin in the room stared at Rumi and then me and then his eyes went back to the parchment.

Bladerazer rose up from his chair and started to shout something in Gobbledegook it seemed to me that he was cursing, Bonecrusher also took a look at the parchment and his eyes also grew wide and stared at Rumi immediately with complete shock written on his face. Bonecrusher also did the same thing as Bladerazer.

Only after a few minutes they calmed down and looked at us. "I don't think that you are playing with us and you are also not someone who lacks knowledge about the magical world so please tell me that if the other two girls you brought here aren't also Ravenclaw descendants" Bonecrusher spoke in almost begging expression. Bladerazer also seemed to have the same expression.

"Yes... all four of us are Ravenclaw descendants. So, now with that finally over we can talk business? Like you previously said time is money after all" I said looking at both Bonecrusher and Bladerazer. Both Bladerazer and Bonecrusher looked completely stunned. If 4 descendants of an extinct family suddenly appeared out of nowhere anyone would be shocked. Even though they were shocked they nodded their heads.

"We would have to take all of you to speak with Director Ragnuk, he is also the King of Goblin Nation. Ravenclaw is still the richest family and it would be better if we speak business with his presence. Even if you were the only heir I would have still taken you to speak with Director Ragnuk" Bonecrusher said looking completely serious. Well, I have no problem meeting their king so I nodded my head.

We were lead throughout the halls and finally reached in front of a room with huge doors while 4 goblins were flanking the gates. Bonecrusher said something to the guards who also looked quite surprised and stared at us. Only after starting for few seconds they calmed themselves down and opened the doors.

The room was really huge and an old-looking goblin was sitting on a high table. Bonecrusher said something to Ragnuk in Gobbledegook and he immediately turned his head towards us.

"I have to say, I am really surprised to see 4 heirs of an extinct family suddenly appear out of thin air. Even though I still find it hard to believe but our own tests proved your claim and goblin magic is never wrong in matters like these" Ragnuk gestured to us sit in front of him. I have to say these chairs were a lot more comfortable than the previous ones.

"Now, before we could start speaking business we must take care of something. I want to know which one of you would take the Lordship or Ladyship of the family" Ragnuk said. Well, this is confusing why did he say Ladyship? Didn't Magical Britain have a Patriarchy system? It's true that I wanted Nemuri to lead the family until I could take the mantle of head of the house.

"I don't understand... I thought that there will only be Lordship to take" I said in genuine confusion.

"Well... the Ravenclaw family is slightly different from others. As the family of one of the founders Rowena Ravenclaw, the family never looked down on women. Ravenclaw family is both Patriarchal and Matriarchal depending on the older kid in the generation" Ragnuk said. Well, this gives me something to think about. If I ask Nemuri to take leadership of the family it could be a problem.

Several Marriage proposals would start to fly in. It could be dealt with easily by ignoring, but Nemuri would paint a huge target behind her. Even if she holds the fort for me for a few years in Wizengamot she would be still painting a target on her back. But now, So, I don't have much to think here... so let's see the functions Ravenclaw Lord or Lady ring would have, this could have a huge impact.

"Can you tell me what are the functions of Ravenclaw Lord or Lady ring?" I asked Ragnuk. Ragnuk looked quite intrigued because of the question.

"Well I don't know the exact functions but it would have any functions other families Lord Rings would have. Like natural Occlumency Shields, protection from any kind of mind-altering potions, love potions, poisons and it would even nourish her or his body with magic making them much stronger than their peers both physically, mentally, and magically" Ragnuk said. Well hearing all this finally sealed the deal, I would give Nemuri the Ladyship and make her the Matriarch but there is still a slight problem.

I don't know if they ever hid something inside their family ring so that if someone with impure blood status would put on their ring would get cursed or not. From what I have seen the Ravenclaws didn't seem to be a dark family but they also went extinct due to inbreeding so I won't put it past them.

"Bonecrusher can you tell me what our blood status is?" I asked. Even though I didn't hold up much hope with this but since God sent us here, I think that we could be purebloods.

Bonecrusher again looked at the parchment and said "Both Itsuki Reo and Rumi Usagiyama are purebloods". Hmm... I was kind of expecting that but having confirmation is much better.

"Nemuri I think you should take the Ladyship!" I told Nemuri who was stunned.

"Are you sure? That ring could help you a lot from what I have heard" Nemuri said.

"Yes... but it would help you much better. I will tell you everything later" I said. Nemuri looked towards both Rumi and Momo who nodded their heads in agreement.

"Ok, then. I would be taking the Ladyship" Nemuri said to Ragnuk. Ragnuk gave a toothy grin and snapped his finger and a bronze box with blue outlines appeared on his table. There was an eagle engraved over the box, Ragnuk opened the box and a shining blue and bronze ring with an eagle engraved was kept inside it.

Nemuri took the ring and put it on the middle finger of her right hand. The ring re-sized itself to fit her finger and flashed brightly.

"Well, the Ravenclaw family ring has accepted you as the new leader of the family. Now that is over with let's talk business" Ragnuk spoke and Bloodceusher snapped his fingers and several files appeared on the table.

For the next hour, we went through all the businesses we had and how much money we would be receiving from them as rent. I declined to announce that the Ravenclaw family is back and would want to wait until Nemuri turns 17. To this, I could see the respect appear in both Ragnuk and Bonecrusher's eyes.

The next hour was spent with all the money and accounts we owned along with all the properties we had. We had 6 castles in total excluding Hogwarts. We also owned Hogwarts as we were the only direct descendants of the founders, there was No Nose too but he didn't claim heirship. We owned 17 villas in total, 3 of them were vacation villas, one on the island of Miami, the other on a beach of France, and the last one in the snowy mountains of Russia.

We also owned 2 muggle buildings which were now being used as the most expensive and luxurious hotels within whole Britain. We would be receiving rent from them, too. We also talked about the business we could be investing in. The goblins showed us several prospects. They would obviously receive some percentage of the profit so if we make a profit they would be doing that too.

"May I also recommend something completely apart from the business?" Ragnuk asked, all four of us looked interested so he continued. "As all of you have foreign names the older families would definitely look down on you even if you would be members of the Most Ancient and the Noble House of Ravenclaw, so I wanted to suggest a ritual to change your names permanently everyone. Even in the book of Hogwarts, your name would be changed if you are worried about that" Ragnuk said.

Well, I completely agreed with him and I can already see everyone looking down on us as we are foreigners. I asked the girls and they didn't seem to have any problem with changing their names temporarily.

"We agree, prepare the ritual" I said and Ragnuk snapped his fingers and his guards walked inside. They spoke something in Gobbledegook and the goblins immediately ran out of the room and after some minutes they came back with several goblins elder.

Throughout the next couple of hours, 4 magic circles for the ritual were prepared. I decided to take the name Edgar Maxwell, Momo decided to take the name Alice Croftwell, Rumi decided to take the name Roxanne Thrift, and Nemuri decided to take the name, Vicky Parsons. All of us decided to change our name to Ravenclaw when Nemuri would announce being the Lady of Ravenclaw family.

All four of us entered the magic circles and stood there. The goblin elders did the incantation in Gobbledegook, the magic lines shined and vaporized from existence and the ritual was complete. Bonecrusher showed us parchment showing us our connection to Ravenclaws and our name there was already changed to our new ones.

With that finally over I asked the goblins to acquire a muggle flat for us. They said that we would get the letter and a Portney for our new flat by tomorrow. With that finally over I called Dixy and apparated back to Castle Ravenclaw. As soon as I entered the room I was brought into a passionate and hungry kiss by Momo. I knew that this is going to be a long night...
