Since the Gold Cup has been made into a Horcrux by Voldemort the summoning and levitation charms don't work on it.
Lucas entered the vault cautiously.
When he came to Gringotts, he already had a pair of dragonskin gloves prepared just in case. He wasn't sure if there was a curse or a jinx left by Voldemort on the cup so it's better to be careful.
[Congratulations to the host for discovering "Hufflepuff's Cup" and getting a reward: 100 achievement points.]
[Congratulations to the host for opening a series of achievements: collect the relics of the Hogwarts Four, complete this achievement and get a diamond draw once.]
"Diamond lottery?"
Lucas looked at the system, waiting for an explanation.
[Diamond lottery, you can draw powerful items or abilities from the multiverse. Only by completing a series of achievements of great significance can you get a chance to use the lottery.]
"Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with it. The relics of the Founders are all good things."
After putting away the gold cup, Lucas turned and walked out.
When passing by the hill of golden galleons, he took out the suitcase he had prepared.
Goblin magic was cast on the coins so wizards can't cast the duplication curse on them. As for the other collections in the vault that have been cast with the duplication curse, Lucas could only reluctantly give up, after all, it would take too much time to break the curse.
It has to be said, these Death Eaters really do have money, there are as many as 500,000 Galleons in this personal treasury alone.
When the goblins from Gringotts and the Ministry of Magic Aurors arrived Lucas had already left through the void rift.
Gringotts' anti-Apparition wards wouldn't work on him!
…
(Knockturn Alley.)
In an empty corner, a crack was suddenly torn open in the space and a disguised Lucas emerged from it.
"Where is this?"
Looking at the dark alley in front of him he was a bit puzzled.
As he was in a hurry just now, he found a random direction and opened the Void Fissure so he doesn't know where he is now.
Getting out of the alley, outside are narrow, dark roads.
There are shops on both sides of the road and in front of the shops there was a group of hideous wizards in black robes.
'Knockturn Alley.'
This situation immediately made Lucas understand where this place was.
'What a coincidence, I'll just take this opportunity to complete the exploration of Knockturn Alley.'
Lucas walked along the street, carefully observing the surrounding buildings.
In the original book, there are very few descriptions of the shops here.
Aside from Borgin and Burke's Antiques, the other shops are largely unmentioned.
As Lucas gradually walked deeper he found that aside from some black magic shops, there are also some black market-like shops on the street in Knockturn Alley, which mainly trade dangerous creatures and herbs.
Of course, there are also some normal items on sale as well.
It's just that there are problems with the origin of these things, and the price is naturally cheaper than the official market price.
Lucas is getting more and more interested in this place. Usually, a lot of rare items can be found in such a mixed place.
"Boy, judging by your clothes, you should be from a big family. You just need to know..."
"Petrificus Totalus!"
"Confringo!"
Watching the man in the way being pulverized by the spell Lucas continued walking forward with a blank expression.
He had long expected that such a bloody thing would happen since he's not interested in talking nonsense with those street rats.
Two hours later.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the exploration achievement: Knockturn Alley, reward: 50 achievement points.]
Hearing the system announcement made him feel satisfied. Immediately after he tore open the space and returned to his manor.
Speaking of which, the two trips to Diagon Alley earned him 350 achievement points, which is not bad.
This also made him look forward to life at Hogwarts even more.
Who knows how many achievement points he can get there, and how strong he can become.
...
Fast forward to late August.
The first-grade textbooks are not difficult for Lucas.
Except for Potions.
He seemed to have a natural allergy to potions, no matter how much he tried, he still couldn't refine a satisfactory potion.
…
(Malfoy Manor.)
Lucas took a sip of black tea, looking at Draco Malfoy flying all over the sky on a broomstick, he felt that Draco was a bit stupid.
"Lucas, don't sit still, let's play together!"
"Sorry, I feel sick in my stomach today, so I won't play."
11 years old, just the age kids love to play.
Even if Draco comes from a pure-blooded family and received an aristocratic education, this fact has not changed at all.
Putting the teacup down Lucas looked aside and said, "Sorry for bothering you these days, Mr. Malfoy."
"Mr. Grindelwald, you are welcome. It is an honor for my Malfoy family that you are willing to play around with my son."
Since Lucius Malfoy learned the surname of the boy in front of him. He has become very careful of the way he speaks to him.
As a powerful pure-blood family Malfoy knew more than the average wizard.
The boy in front of him was not as kind as he looked. The dozen or so Aurors who went missing in Austria have not been found yet.
Looking at Malfoy's cautious look Lucas chuckled a little.
To this day, he still remembers the stunned expression on the other side's face when he came to visit him.
"Uncle Lucius, if you don't mind, you can call me Lucas, I am friends with Draco after all."
Facing the olive branch he was thrown, Lucius would naturally not refuse.
Afterwards, one big and one small sat in the garden and communicated in a low voice.
And in the distance.
A platinum-blond haired child is happily riding a broom!
~Sigh!~ Lucius could only look at his son and shake his head in disappointment.
…
Soon, September 1st came and it was finally time to start the school year at Hogwarts.
Lucas packed all his luggage into one suitcase and shrunk it quickly before putting it in his pocket.
Then he took Hestia's birdcage and departed for King's Cross Station.
