Chapter 349： How will you be here (2/2)
”The Magic of Chawick is a textbook for the defense against the dark arts of the Ifamoni Academy in the United States. It is a bit different from our current curse theory... Forget it, if you haven't read this part of it, you must be I don't understand.”
As Albert said, he was too lazy to explain. Even if some things were explained, the other party might not be able to understand them.
Compared with British textbooks, the book ”The Magic of Chawick” is indeed slightly different. It teaches students some spell-casting skills. Although this part has been eliminated, it is still for most students. Still very useful.
Katrina was a little angry, but Albert was right. She really didn't understand, which made her even more depressed.
After that, the two had a tacit discussion about some learning issues and how to arrange the time for this semester reasonably.
After all, this semester is for people who are going to take twelve courses, and I always have to learn some experience from Isobel, so as not to crash myself.
A large part of Isabel’s words were addressed to Katrina.
Isabel himself is a genius. There is not much pressure to study. Albert is considered a genius when he is open. Studying is even less pressure. The only person who may be under pressure is Katrina, who can barely be regarded as a genius.
After nightfall, Albert separated from the two, and on the way back to his room, he saw the house elf.
Not long after, he saw Mr. Broad in the study, and the old man smiled and waited for his arrival.
”I thought this manor was a very important place for you.” Albert looked at the old man in front of him who was not going to invite him to supper, and couldn't help but complain.
”You mean Katrina?” The old man motioned to Albert to sit opposite him.
Albert did not deny either, and waited for the old man's explanation after sitting down.
”You must know something about the Wildsmith family. Actually, these things shouldn't have been told to you so early.” Mr. Browd seemed to be considering the words, speaking very slowly.
”Because we are not heirs yet?”
”Well, it does have something to do with this matter.” Mr. Broad did not deny it either.
”There is nothing wrong with the statement of heir. However, it may not be the same as you think. What we inherit is not an inheritance, but a surname.” He said with a smile.
”Of course, to some extent, this is also a kind of legacy.”
”Inherit a surname?” Albert remembered Isabel's letter and asked curiously: ”So, am I qualified?”
”Well, how do you say it?” Mr. Browder thought for a while and said, ”In our opinion, you and Isobel are both suitable, at least for now.”
”That's the way it is now?” Albert repeated, ”Isn't the expedition period over yet?”
”Usually ~ we will tell you these things after you graduate.” Mr. Broad said with a smile, ”Well, this time is a special case.”
”You know, neither I nor Isobel really cares about these things.”
”The pride of genius!” Mr. Browder said with a smile, ”Even if you don't inherit the thing, you can get what you want yourself. I understand that, and I did it before.”
”Of course, if you don't want this surname, you can only inherit it by Isabelle. Although she doesn't need it, someone will always inherit it.”
”Our task is actually to choose the right person and then persuade him to inherit this surname.” Professor Broad said, ”If you agree, I will tell you about the cause and effect of this matter and some very private things.”
”Aren't you afraid of me pretending to agree?”
”Don't be afraid, since you are deemed suitable by us, naturally you will not do this kind of thing, otherwise you will not be considered suitable.”
”It seems that your so-called appropriateness refers to many aspects?” Albert raised his eyebrows.
”That's natural, everyone who is eligible to inherit this surname is chosen by thousands of people.”
”Thousands of choices? Do you have so many candidates? Don't think I don't know how many wizards there are in the UK.” Albert curled his lips and couldn't help but complain.
