HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Chapter 79 Slytherin Manor

Hearing the name "Little Leah", Gloria was stunned for a moment, then she hugged Tonks back, "I didn't expect you would give me a second nickname when we first met. I like this nickname."

Tonks loosened the hug and reached out to stroke her thick light blonde hair. "I'm glad you like it. Your hair color is really beautiful." After saying that, the semi-long hair instantly changed color, becoming a light blonde similar to Gloria's.

The atmosphere instantly became harmonious. Ted asked them to sit down together, and Andromeda went to the kitchen to get plates and knives and forks.

At the table, Gloria tasted the oak ham and nodded, "It's delicious."

Tonks said: "Dad is a very good cook. He has been cooking for many years. If you like, come and visit more often."

"I will." Gloria looked at her. "What are you doing now?"

"I'm training at the Ministry of Magic. If I pass this year, I can become an official Auror next year." Speaking of career, Tonks' hair became more colorful.

Gloria said with certainty, "You will definitely pass."

The two girls, who were seven years apart in age, chatted happily, and Mr. and Mrs. Tonks watched them chatting with smiles in their eyes.

Tonks was an adventurous student at school and shared with Gloria some of the secret passages and shortcuts she knew.

After finishing the meal, Tonks cleaned the table and worked with her father, while Andromeda took Gloria's hand and sat on the sofa, "We saw the report about yesterday's banquet. Do you like Draco very much?"

Before this report, there were reports about their relationship.

"I like it very much." When Gloria heard his name, an expression of joy unconsciously appeared on her face.

Andromeda was familiar with this expression. When she was with Ted, she often smiled like this. "I'm glad you like it. I also learned some things about Leir recently. If I was still in that family, maybe he wouldn't have taken that path."

After she was expelled from the family, letters could not be sent to the Black family. Sirius and Regulus did not have a good relationship and would not help deliver the letters. Regulus was also angry about her choice at the time, and the cousins ​​lost contact.

"Don't blame yourself." Gloria said, "Even if you were still here, he would continue his choice without telling you."

Andromeda was filled with emotion as her two cousins, who had once been on opposing sides, ended up making completely opposite choices.

Gloria held her hand and said, "I came to visit you this time. Besides my father's reasons, I also wanted to come. I couldn't send you any gifts during Christmas because my identity needed to be kept secret."

Andromeda immediately shook her head, blaming herself. "It doesn't matter. We didn't even know you existed. It's so..."

Gloria said: "It's normal that you don't know, otherwise the Slytherin family will be in chaos."

Gloria chatted until the afternoon before she was ready to leave. Before leaving, she made an appointment with Tonks to send each other letters.

The Malfoys naturally knew about the visit to the Tonks family, but they did not ask a single question.

When Gloria comes back, she will go back to Slytherin Manor with Draco. Lucius and Narcissa have no plans to go with them for the time being. They have been very busy recently. After the birthday party yesterday, many families held parties and invited the couple.

After packing their luggage, a very young house-elf stood by, the elf that Gloria gave to the Malfoy family.

Narcissa hugged Gloria reluctantly and said, "Remember to write to us when you return."

Gloria said, “We will.”

Lucius placed his hands on the snake-head scepter, "Draco, as a gentleman, remember to protect Gloria."

"Of course father." Draco took her hand.

After kissing both of them on the forehead, Narcissa let go.

"Otto," Lucius called to the elf, "You can go now."

The elf named Otto snapped his fingers, and the luggage automatically stacked in the air. He grabbed the hems of the two little masters' clothes and disappeared in the manor with a crackling sound.

When Otto appeared in the front yard of Slytherin Manor, he bent down and said, "Dear Miss Gloria and Master Draco, Otto will go to place the luggage first. Which room should Master Draco's luggage be placed in?"

Gloria replied: "I'm in the bedroom next door."

Draco was still staring blankly at the scene in front of him. Various water creatures were floating on the fountain pool that looked like a small lake. Behind the fountain was called a manor, but it would be more accurate to call it a castle.

Last Christmas, Gloria took a photo in front of the fountain, but only captured the castle in the middle. There were three castles in total.

The three castles were gray and white in color, engraved with strange magic patterns, and surrounded by beautiful gardens. They were solemn and exquisite, which surprised Draco, who was always proud of his own manor.

"Lori, is your house still considered a manor?"

Gloria chuckled. "Of course it is, but the building is a little bigger. Let me give you a brief introduction. The castle in the middle is for normal living. The one on the left is mostly used for various experiments. It has rooms for potion preparation, spell testing, alchemy, etc. It's not very dangerous, but you have to be careful. You can't go into the one on the right without me. It's very dangerous. If you go in without knowing the situation, you can easily die."

Draco silently remembered not to go to the castle on the right.

After introducing the castle, Gloria pointed behind her and said, "The blue in the distance is the largest lake near my home. There are many magical animals living in the forest. They sometimes approach the manor, but the ones that can approach are all docile creatures. Don't worry, your Adonis is deep in the forest and will probably hatch tomorrow."

Draco was curious, "You've been at Malfoy Manor the whole time, how do you know what's going on here?"

"House elf." Gloria said, "Coco would come to see me secretly every day and pass notes to Golinia and the others."

"Gorinya?" It was the first time Draco heard the name.

Gloria remembered that after dealing with Avery, Draco was also frightened by the three snakes and didn't even ask about the snakes.

"Oh, I haven't told you yet. The three snakes in the Slytherin common room, the one with golden scales is called Golinia, a girl, the one with white scales is Jörmungandr, her twin brother, and the one with black scales is called Apophis. I'll have the elves send them back after I finish dealing with Avery. They can write with ink using their tails, so they can pass notes to me."

"Were they... also bred by Salazar?" Draco asked. "Like the one in the Chamber of Secrets?"

Gloria took his hand and said, "It wasn't him. It was created by an ancestor who existed before Salazar. He was an extremely talented person. Do you want to go to the Slytherin family portrait room? They would definitely like to talk to you."

Draco's pale face flushed with excitement, "Of course!"

Gloria led him to the castle in the middle, "It's a good opportunity for you to take a look around."

They walked straight to the fountain and were about to step into it, but Draco trusted his Lori and followed her steps firmly. When they stepped onto the steps of the fountain, the water automatically formed an exquisite bridge, which was soft to step on but would not get their shoes wet.

Gloria explained: "My ancestors thought the fountain was too big and it was too troublesome to go around it, so they cast a spell like this to make it easier to walk in a straight line."
