HP: In The Magical World As a An Extra [ Chapter 38 ]
🕑 Added 2024-06-08 14:46:29 +0000 UTCHearing their names my mind went into overdrive to pull together all I knew about both these two girls, both were sorted into Slytherin house at Hogwarts.
Daphne was a pureblood heiress to the house of Greengrass, and had a younger sister who was a year or so younger, while Tracey was a half-blood born to a noble family.
If I remember correctly Daphne's younger sister is to marry Draco Malfoy, hmm neither play much part in the actual movies, the largest thing about them is Daphne being a part of Pansy Parkinson's little cliché.
I broke out of my thoughts a moment after seeing both looking at me… oh, right I was meant to introduce myself… eh, what the heck it will be out in a couple hours anyway might as well have a little fun.
I smiled and nodded my head to them, "A pleasure to meet such fine ladies, Magnus Black, heir apparent to the ancient and most noble house of black, at your service." I said giving them both a smile.
Both girls looked like they were trying to catch flies with their open mouths as they dropped to their seats at my introduction, I smirked and waited for them to snap out of it again, it was a little amusing seeing their shock.
This time Daphne was the first to come around first, "Are you really from the house of Black? I thought there was none left." she said sounding shocked.
I gave an amused chuckle, "Well I had better be, I've been living in Black manor for a month non-sense I was told by the goblins about my heritage and they gave me this fancy ring." I said as I held up my hand as my heir ring appeared.
"From what they told me I have to be heir Black to wear it."
I got another set of gasps from both of them when they saw my heir ring and I smirked, this was too much fun.
After a couple of seconds, I watched as Daphne tried to school her features but my statements had clearly shocked her, Tracey, on the other hand, was just shocked.
"But how, everyone thought that the next heir to house Black was going to be a child born from one of the houses with Black blood in it, like the Malfoys?" Tracey stated.
I shrugged, "it likely would have been until I was found. I was born out of wedlock and left at an orphanage when both my parents died."
"I only just got tested a month back and here I am, my father was the last heir before he died, that means I'm next in line for succession." I explained
Daphne nodded her head to my words, "Well I'd watch my back if I were you, you're appearance is definitely going to rub a number of people the wrong way...."
"....because they thought they were in line for the Black lordship. With you coming out of nowhere, you're going to have people out for your blood, or trying to discredit you in the least." She said seriously.
I shrugged, "I guessed as much. My grandparents told me that I might piss some people off, but I think I'm ready should they try anything." I explained.
Tracey blinked, "hey wait a minute, what do you mean by grandparents, all the other blacks are either cast out of the family or dead, the last lord Black died twelve years ago and Lady Black died six years ago." She stated.
I chuckled, "I mean their portraits in Black manor, I've had them giving me lessons the past month while I also crammed my Hogwarts books, I've been learning as much as I can about the wizarding world while taking lessons from them on how to be a proper heir, the lessons are never-ending." I said with shrug.
That got a giggle from Tracey and a smirk from Daphne at my final comment.
"Welcome to the life of being a pureblood heir" Daphne commented with her smirk.
"Yeah we've been having those lessons since we were six, about how to act and show ourselves in public, and be the perfect little daughters and heiress to our houses." Tracey added with a little pose before giggling which got Daphne going as well.
"Yeah, I don't even want to think what it would be like trying to cram all that into a month, right before starting Hogwarts too" Daphne stated giving me a pitiful look.
I shrugged, "Well grandmother says I'm coming along well in most of my practical's, but that I still have a long way to go yet, while I've barely scratched the surface with grandfather, he says I have a lot more to learn about the laws and politics," I explained, "but I've covered the basics so far at least."
I watched as both girls exchanged glances before nodding, "well we could probably help you out with it." Tracey offered.
"That's if we end up in the same house that is." Daphne added, "Otherwise our efforts could be strained."
I nodded and decided to bite the bullet, "So what house do you think you two will be sorted into?" I asked with a knowing smirk.
Both girls smirked at my statement, Daphne crossed her arms with a smile, "well my father was a Slytherin, and my mother was a Ravenclaw, so either is an option for me. But I suspect I'll be in Slytherin, it's the house of the cunning, sly and ambitious after all."
Tracey nodded smiling, "My mother was a Hufflepuff and my father a Slytherin so either house is an option for me. But both my parents want me to be in Slytherin, though I suspect they wouldn't mind if I was in Ravenclaw, anything as long as I'm not in Gryffindor." She said with a shudder mentioning the house of the brave.
Or the foolish in my opinion.
Daphne gave me a look, "what about you Black? What house do you think you'll be in?" She asked as both girls looked at me anxiously.
