Listening to his godson's complaints, Sirius wolfed down the chicken legs in front of him.
Eating another one, he threw the bone to Buckbeak next to him.
Poor Hippogriff, used to follow Hagrid to eat luxuriously. But ever since he started following Sirius, he could only learn to chew bones with dogs.
Sirius picked up another chicken leg. Seeing the angry face of his godson, he said in relief: "I originally disapproved of you making friends with members of the Malfoy family."
"It's just that the misunderstanding between us last year has not been solved, and there are not many opportunities to communicate afterwards, so I haven't had time to tell you."
"The current patriarch of the Malfoy family, Lucius Malfoy, was once a Death Eater, you should know this, right?"
Seeing Harry and Ron nodding, Sirius took another bite of the chicken.
Probably because the chicken legs were in the way, he put it back in the bag.
"You probably don't know what status Malfoy has now as a pure-blooded family?"
"Since the fall of Voldemort, Lucius Malfoy has held the leading position among the Death Eaters."
"Those guys who were Death Eaters in the past and got away with it, all follow his lead now."
After saying this, Sirius put his hand in the bag and gnawed on the chicken legs again.
He was so hungry, being on the run all this time he didn't dare to appear in the place where wizards gathered, and even in the muggle world he was wanted.
In order to fill his stomach, he even turned into a big black dog to catch mice to satisfy his hunger.
To this day he still has the same skinny appearance, even the same clothes on his body.
Another chicken leg was eliminated. With his hunger barely taken care of, Sirius sucked his fingers and continued.
"Why does Lucius Malfoy have such a big appeal? Apart from the fact that their family is pure blood."
"This is also because of Lucius Malfoy's father, Abraxas Malfoy."
Harry and Ronald had never heard of the name Abraxas, so Sirius explained: "Abraxas Malfoy, decades ago, was a very influential man."
"He and Voldemort are contemporaries, it is said that he was two years older than Voldemort, and they were good friends when they were in Hogwarts."
"Although Abraxas's name was not included in the list of the first batch of Death Eaters, many people believed that he must have been the first to follow Voldemort."
"I heard something about their first group being named Knights of Walpurgis or something like that, but I don't really know much about that."
With the evidence of Sirius' words, Ron's expression became agitated. He tugged at his friend's robe and said, "Did you hear that? I was right!"
Harry didn't respond.
He also didn't expect that two generations of the Malfoy family were Death Eaters.
That's right, Harry had already identified Abraxas as a Death Eater in his mind.
At this moment, Sirius added: "The Malfoy family has never been simple."
"If we go further into the past, Septimus Malfoy controlled the entire wizarding world in the 18th century, and the Minister of Magic at that time was just a puppet."
"Hiss~" Ronald gasped, "The Malfoy family is really evil."
Harry subconsciously nodded. In their simple minds, the Minister of Magic usually represents the good guys, and is the most powerful person.
Controlling the Minister of Magic makes you a bad person, right?
Children's ideas are usually so simple.
Taking advantage of this time, Sirius wiped out two more chicken legs, and finally burped.
He put away the remaining chicken legs and looked at his godson seriously.
"Harry, has it hurt again lately?" Sirius pointed to his forehead.
Harry knew that he was talking about his scar, so he shook his head: "Not recently, but I always dream about some strange scenes."
He recounted his recent dreams and things he thought were strange. He also took the chance to complain to Sirius again about Snape blaming him for stealing.
Sirius didn't like Professor Snape in the first place, so it is reasonable to think that the greasy bat was just looking for trouble with his godson.
"Harry, I think you need to talk to Dumbledore more, he might be able to answer a lot of things for you."
"It's like you always have strange dreams. I mentioned this problem when I corresponded with Dumbledore."
"He thinks that the trouble you are encountering now is probably similar to that of Parseltongue. Voldemort's spell made the two of you have a certain connection."
"I think his analysis is very reasonable, but this could also be an advantage, you can see Voldemort's movements through the dreams, which is more beneficial for us to deal with him."
Sirius made a "rational" analysis, which helped Harry feel better about his dream problems.
Neither of them thought that since Harry could see Voldemort, Voldemort could possibly also be able to see them through Harry.
Harry just thought it was cool right now and the problem that bothered him was finally solved.
He even thought he was unique. After all, neither Dumbledore nor Lucas could connect to Voldemort, could they?
Sirius then reminded Harry to beware of Karkaroff.
He was convinced that Karkaroff, the Death Eater, must have thrown Harry's name into the Goblet of Fire.
"Also, if you run into trouble, you can ask Alastor Moody for help."
"As a senior Auror, Moody's strength and combat experience are very rich."
"Also, you have to remember that anyone can become a Death Eater, but Dumbledore and Alastor Moody have absolutely no such possibility."
"So Moody is trustworthy, you can trust him completely, understand?"
Harry couldn't agree more with that. If he didn't have the help of Professor Moody during this time, he simply wouldn't have made it through the first two tasks.
The three chatted a lot later.
For Harry, Sirius is his only relative. So after not seeing each other for such a long time, the two naturally had endless topics to talk about.
Especially when talking about the Triwizard Tournament, Sirius praises him for his performance.
"I'm proud of you, Harry!"
This affirmation from his family made Harry feel elated.
"But you'd better have as little conflict with Lucas Grindelwald as possible."
"To be honest, I can't see through that kid. I've corresponded with Dumbledore about it."
"Dumbledore's answer was also unclear. Later, I went to find out about Grindelwald's influence in the magic world."
"At present, the Saints Group has taken root in the British magic world, and many industries cannot do without the Saints Group. I think this kid from the Grindelwald family must have a big ambition…"
Harry looked at his godfather in surprise.
"Is there something wrong with Lucas too?"
"I don't know." Sirius shook his head: "I can't see through him, but I know that Dumbledore seems to trust him."
"There must be something wrong with that guy Grindelwald, he's always doing things mysteriously, that guy must have some evil plan."
Ron also expressed his point of view at this time.
Hearing the words of his godfather and friend, Harry frowned. In fact, he also had some doubts about Lucas recently.
He couldn't figure out why the other boy continued to go to school when he already had so much strength.
He felt that if it was him that had such power, he would have probably left school early and went out to make a living.
With that strength, whether it is becoming an Auror or a professional Quidditch player, it should be easy.
Fortunately, Lucas outside the cave didn't know what Harry was thinking at the moment. Otherwise, he would have laughed out loud.
Possessing quasi-legendary strength, in the end, he just wanted to be an Auror or a Quidditch player?
That level of ambition is really mediocre.
"Okay, you have been out for long enough, if you don't go back, it will raise suspicion from others."
Under the urging of Sirius, Harry reluctantly walked towards the entrance of the cave, but before leaving they agreed on a time to meet again.
Then Harry and Ron crawled out of the crack. When the two returned to the mountain road outside, Lucas had already left.
He had originally planned to talk to Sirius, but after listening to the remarks of the three inside, he felt that there was little point in chatting with Sirius.
The other party is obviously not a shrewd person.
All that he cared about was Harry Potter. So in his eyes, anyone who caused trouble for his godson was a possible threat.
…
Time always flies by.
After getting along for more than half a year, the relationship between the students of the three schools was getting better and better.
In Hogwarts, people from different schools can often be seen walking together.
It was already the last week of May, which means that there is just a month until the last task.
In the Transfiguration classroom, the fourth year students were packing up their books and preparing to leave the classroom.
"Mr Potter, Mr Grindelwald, you two stay here for a while."
Lucas nodded to Professor McGonagall, returned to his seat and waited for the others to leave, so did Harry.
"Gentlemen, please gather at the Quidditch Stadium at nine o'clock tonight. Mr. Bagman will inform all the champions about the details of the third task."
"Please remember the time, don't be late, and you have to go alone, understand?"
…
Lucas left the great hall at 8:30 p.m.
When he walked out of the gate and came to the foyer, the other champions had been waiting for a long time and only Harry was missing now.
Thinking of the old Barty Crouch who hasn't appeared until now. Lucas wondered whether he had entered Hogwarts school as in the original book.
At this moment, Harry finally arrived and the five of them walked towards the Quidditch pitch in a silent manner.
