10 List of miscellaneous to go to.

The dark mark of Voldemort. Just as I thought. In the history of the family once a family member reach a mature age and was allowed to use his one-time privilege a mark was needed to be put on himself. It will serve as a distress signal if anyone encountered trouble. Any member of the family outside with the mandatory mark will receive a signal that will inform the others of his location and they can apparate to them to be of aid. Salazar Slytherin wrote or pass down the knowledge to his successor and ended up on Tom Riddle maybe when he opened the chamber of secrets.

"Thank you for showing it. And it's a pleasure meeting you but I must say we need to be on our way." Meshac said.

"Yes of course young master, if you do need anything you can ask us here in the store there is always someone here. If you need another companion I can allow Jedidiah to accompany you on your journey she is a gifted potioneer and also very knowledgeable in magical ingredients."

"That won't be necessary, but thanks for that offer." Idun said immediately rejected the proposition." If there is nothing else we should be going. We will inform you if there is something that needs of you your help."

"Well there is one last thing the income for the last two decades was deposited to the Gringotts account so if you need finances I do think that you know how to access them."

"Yes, thank you for the reminder. So now we must first leave and do our business travels we have a tight schedule you see. Farewell, and we will visit from time to time. You know that young master needs to visit the home of course." Idun said an s we both stood up to indicate we are ready to depart.

We leave the premises and started to walk in the magical alley of old town Budapest. Its history was the capital used to be two distinct towns but in time it became one but the old town became a magical alley that was hidden from muggles.

The current date was September 20, 1988. In Budapest there is a special place it needs to go, no I dearly wanted to go and that is. McDonald's in May of 1988 a branch of McDonald's opened here and that was my first destination. My stomach is craving for fast food. It's not that the food at home is not delicious, it is, but there is a certain taste only a fast food can satisfy the tastebud of this reincarnator. As we travel using a private rental car with a driver, arranged by William, we drove to our first stop. "Two orders of big Mac with large fries and a large cola," I order as we arrived and my turn on the counter.

"That hit the spot Idun. That my friend is the peak of muggle food." I said proudly

"That does really have some peculiar taste. Well well, young master I'm surprised that you have a point."

Now our driver is not an ordinary person he to was a wizard contracted to be our guide for Idun can use apparition but you can not apparate to a place you do not know. So he is needed to guide and introduce all the places that we need to go. He is an informant to the outside branch of our family and very knowledgeable in many magical places. And he can camouflage himself in the muggle world very well. So we are under his guidance for the moment.

Now to the main part of the plan. Our real first stop is Gringotts. Robert, our guide, apparate us to Diagon alley near the entrance.

Enter, stranger, but take heed

Of what awaits the sin of greed

For those who take, but do not earn,

Must pay most dearly in their turn.

So if you seek beneath our floors

A treasure that was never yours,

Thief, you have been warned, beware

Of finding more than treasure there.

The famous warning of the Gringotts goblin bank welcomed us.

"Young master, Idun, I will wait here outside until you finish your business with the goblins. Take caution they are very cunning and hot-tempered." Robert said

We start to enter Gringotts. Two wizards standing in the front door scanned us using their wands. After finding nothing that alarms them we were allowed to enter the main hall. We went to a free counter. It was currently past 10 am and there are some quiet people and goblins busily doing their respective businesses.

As I said to Idun I will handle the talking to the goblins. I stood in front of the counter patiently waiting for the goblin to notice me. After some time he took a glance at me and raise a brow. I immediately start talking.

"Greetings honorable goblin May your riches be uncountable so that your competitors will die in envy one by one till they are wiped out in the face of the earth."

A smirk came from the goblin. "What an interestingly respectful little wizard. You have my attention, what business you bring to our prestigious establishment?"

I took out an insignia and placed it on the counter. "I wonder if you have the authority to discuss this?"

"My my my, a VVVIP, come with my distinguished guess. we will talk in a more private and secure room. My name is Goblok, I will guide you to our spokesperson."

I put back the insignia to my space then we follow Goblok to the room he let us be sited and said to wait for a moment for the goblin-spoke person to attend to them. He seems very energetic, panicked, and nervous.

Not a minute had passed and another goblin came in hurriedly. "Pardon me wizards, but this matter is of a high level of account with importance. May I see the insignia once more?"

"Yes of course." I showed the new goblins the insignia putting my hand on my pocket to hide the fact I'm getting it from my space. The eyes of the goblin widen so much, they look like the eyes of Dobby in the movies. Then it became a scrutinizing look.

"I am Brodrig spoke person of the goblin that reside here in Gringotts, pardon me for not properly introducing myself. I presume you know the requirements that come with that item you have distinguished guests."

"Yes we have been informed, so shall we go to the blood inheritance room?" Dealing with goblins you must be respectful and direct, also do not show weakness for they will devour you whole. I've shown respect but still, I must stand that I am no pushover and I have the knowledge of the business being conducted.

"Yes, That is the first requirement. But do you know the consequences if you fail? It is death!"

"Brodrig it seems that you are going off topics too much. To my understanding, once the heir shows the insignia he must be entertained and respected without questions. It seems that goblins don't do all of their business contracts to heart. Maybe I shall write a complaint to the other branch of Gringotts and tell them that this branch leadership is corrupted."

"Of course, not young wizard, I am just making sure that the account holder is not an imposter. This account has the most secure and most valuable account to us. We always take precautions."

"Well, those precautions can be removed by the trial of blood inheritance so I don't think that more talks are necessary. Do you think so Brodrig?"

Brodrig gave a displeased face and said "follow after me." Turn around and walk away. We followed behind him till we reach another room. A room with a bowl in a stand in the middle greets us.

Brodrig went to the center, took a dagger in the bowl, and said. "Place drops of blood here to confirm your inheritance."

I walked beside him while Idun stayed quite still and watched in the corner. Grabbing the dagger from the goblin raised my finger and slowly tried to wound it but stopped before it touches my finger and looked at Brodrig. He is trying to hide the excitement on his face but it shows a little. "I do believe that the honest race of the goblins will not taint their prestigious race and used my blood other than the blood inheritance ritual? How many drops did you say I need to put in the bowl I forgot, forgive me." Fear replaced the looks on his face.

Rituals have specific needs for it to be binding the more powerful the ritual the more requirements it needs to be sacrificed. The blood inheritance ritual, I assume, binds the account owner and Gringotts as a whole with magic as the binding witness that will deliberate the content or intent of the ritual. So that fear in his face only shows that there are severe consequences if broken. Just like the unbreakable vow. I had an evil smirk while looking at the goblin waiting for him to answer.

"Just as the contract said two drops are needed nothing more," Brodrig said fixing his appearance.

I poke my finger and let 2 drops of blood drop on the bowl. Light has begun to emit and the symbols and runes started to work their magic. Invisible force started to fill the room creating a small tremor around then a plaque opposite of the bowl stand started to show letters and created some words. The goblin hurriedly runs to it to read it.
