After Harry put Sirius under a few Oaths. Mainly not to betray Harry by talking, writing, mimicking gestures, or even memory transfer. Any information at all that is related to Harry can not be exposed.
He also has a Mind Lock. To make sure Legilimency can't be used to find any memories relating to Harry.
After he is cleared by the French Ministry. He will cut his hair, dye it, change his name, and live his life in peace. He will remain low-key and make sure not to get into trouble. This way he can't be used against Harry in any way.
He won't contact or approach Harry unless Harry calls him first.
Sirius and Harry entered Gringotts under cloaks.
They went to the head teller. "Yess?"
The goblin asked with an annoyed tone. Sirius lightly lifted his head, so that only the goblin could see his face.
"I would like to access my vaults"
The goblin raised an eyebrow "We require proof"
"A blood test should suffice" Sirius answered.
The head teller nodded and called another goblin "Goldfoot will lead you to a meeting room where the test will take place"
Sirius nodded then he and Harry followed the smaller goblin.
After a small walk, they entered a small meeting room.
Small by human standards but perfect for Goblins. Just another way Goblins use to get back at wizards. Make them uncomfortable.
The goblins pass a parchment to us " Place 3 drops on the parchment"
A cloaked Harry hands Sirius a special long nail. It will take 3 drops of blood then heal the wound.
Sirius looked at the goblin " My blood is only to be used for verifying my identity"
The goblin clicked his tongue but nodded
Sirius pressed the nail on the parchment and the blood was 'deposited'
Sirius Orion Black
His name appears on the parchment as well as his parents name. He was the last male Black, making him Lord Black
" Welcome to Gringotts. How can we help you" the goblin quickly changed tunes once it was confirmed that he was Lord Black
It was obvious that he was faking it, but everyone knows that Sirius is supposed to be in Azkaban. If Sirius makes some stupid decisions because of the goblins previous attitude. The Director would chop his head off
" I would like to see my vaults. All of my vaults" Sirius says in even tone. Not giving away his intentions
Harry just stayed quiet. But on the inside he was laughing.
The Black fortune and books would soon be his. He wasn't as interested in the money as he was already rich and could easily make more
But the old magic books and rare artifacts and materials the House of Black had gathered over the generations.
Those were priceless. The wizarding world doesn't even know what it has, that knowledge is wasted in their hands.
And now all of it was his.

30 minutes later.
Harry and Sirius cleared out all the vaults and were back to the meeting room. The goblins weren't aware that they emptied the vaults.
"There is one more thing to do" Sirius addressed the goblins. who frowned after hearing his tone "Due to the British Magical Ministry falsely arresting and imprisoning me, I will be handing the Lordship to a distant relative and closing all my vaults"
The goblin jumped up "What! You must be joking. The Black's have held their gold in Gringotts for generations."
Sirius surprisingly sneered "And look where it got them. Their heir incardinated, the other members are dead, insane or sold off as cattle. This country will fall soon. And I don't plan on being here when that happens. I will be giving the Lordship away and only I will know who he is. He who holds this ring" Sirius raised his finger, showing the ring that every Lord Black has worn "will have complete control over the House of Black. That person will use a wax seal with this ring which has its own magical signature will serve as the new Lord's authentication"
Seeing that the Gringotts would lose a lot of business the goblins turned hostile "The Ministry will never accept this."
This time Sirius laughed "The Ministry can go fuck itself. Hell the entire Magical Britain as well."
Sirius stood up and Harry followed "I wish you a pleasant day. And a pleasant behedging. If you want to blame someone blame the Ministry"
The goblin snarled at Sirius and barely held back from attacking him. Sirius chuckled and left the meeting room and Gringotts.
The goblin rushed out of the meeting room and headed to the main office. 'I hope the Director won't behead me. Or at least spare my clan if he does'

After finishing up their business at Gringotts. Harry returned them both to the Ship.
Sirius went to rest. This day had been shocking enough, and he was still weak from the years he spent imprisoned in Azkaban.
Harry couldn't wait. He entered an empty room on the ship and started sorting the 'loot'.
Plants. Books, Artifacts, Materials.
Those were the main categories he focused on. Then on the rarity of the items. After an hour of sifting through his 'loot'. He found an ornate box that had a scroll.
Harry raised an eyebrow and scanned the scroll with a few spells to check for traps. After the scans turned out negative. He opened the scroll and read it.
"Well... fuck" Harry cursed once he read the scroll.
It was a marriage contract tied to the oldest underage boy in the Black Family. And the oldest underage girl in the Greengrass Family
~
"A marriage contract?" Melinda says with a raised eyebrow "Who is the unlucky girl and what family are you planning to ruin?"
Hope was just sitting there quietly while Harry was musing " The Greengrass Family. What do you know about them?"
Melinda took a sip of their tea " Greengrass huh, they are a somewhat wealthy pureblood family belonging to the Gray Faction. But the current Lord Greengrass heavily supported Voldemort in his crusade, even tough he wasn't a marked Death Eater. After all where there is war there is a lot of profit to be made"
"Hmmm, so someone like me. An opportunist. A coldblooded one"
Melinda looked at Hope than at Harry "What are you planning on doing?"
Harry looked up " If possible i would like to break this contract. I do need multiple wifes but that doesn't mean that I would be willing to play stupid politics to get them. If they are willing, then its all good. If not, I will ruin them and take everything they own."
Melinda smirked "Who is a 'coldblooded' opportunist now?"
Harry grinned back at her " I never said I wasn't a coldblooded one. First of all I need to clear Sirius's name to ruffle a few trees. Then I can deal with everything else. I'm sending him to France. It would be better for him to have no connection with the Americans"
~ Hope Pov
Hope watched as Melinda and Harry talked. To say that she wasn't a bit uncomfortable would be a lie. Worst case Harry would have to marry some unknown girl.
Someone who hasn't even met Harry would become his wife. She had been with Harry for years. Doing chores, helping him with his experiments. Tirelessly training to defend him.
She was his servant., hid assistant and his bodyguard. And hopefully something more in the future. But this new girl would change things.
And probably not for the better
~ Dumbledore and Benjamin
"I demand that you return Harry Potter to his rightful home!" Dumbledore yelled at the Principle of Salem who made a sneer that would even make Snape proud
"Demand? You DEMAND NOTHING! Harry Potter has American Citizenship. And on what grounds do you want him to return. Harry Potter has already finished his magical education. Which in the eyes of the Law makes him an Adult" Benjamin says with his fingers crossed and elbows on his desk
"Harry Potter is a National Hero of Magical Britain. You can't deny him his birthright!" Dumbledore tried another angle and released a little bit of his magic to play it off as an a emotional outburst but Benjamin's face didn't even flinch
"Deny? We aren't denying him anything, Mr.Potter was well informed of his options. But seeing as you people dropped him off one cold November night on a muggle doorstep it seemed to me like you didn't want him or care for him at all. And now when he is famous again, you come here to get a piece of the pie"
Dumbledore looked offended "Preposterous! James Potter and Lily Potter had already paid for young Harry's education. All 7 years at Hogwarts."
Benjamin wasn't amused " I believe I already said that Mr. Potter had already finished his necessary magical education. And unlike Salem. Hogwarts doesn't offer a higher education to their students. Not that you can with your terrible education system"
"Now you lis-" Dumbledore started talking but Benjamin cut him off
"HEADMASTER Dumbledore" He emphasized the Headmaster. Part as none of his other titles have any power here. America wasn't a part of the ICW. And when Dumbledore arrived he did so as the Headmaster of Hogwarts
"It seems that we will not be able to reach any common ground. So i suggest this. Myself and a few representatives of MECUSA along will Harry Potter will arrive at Britain. Where this talk will continue. I believe a refusal from Mr. Potter himself will end this 'discussion' and convince Magical Britain to leave him alone. The place. date and time can be negotiated later on."
Dumbledore stopped for a moment . 'Damn this man. But this is good. As soon as Harry arrives we will welcome him like a Hero. I can convince him to talk to a few family friends like Remus and Hagrid. Minerva and Fillius would be more than happy to tell him about his parents.
Worst case I will use the Ministry to pressure him by threatening to take away his Title and Properties. MECUSA has no jurisdiction with Wizengamot Matters'
"Yes. This is acceptable. The Minister will be contacting you soon. Good Day" With his flashy bright robes. Dumbledore left the office
"Stupid old goat" grumbled Benjamin "Good thing we made preparations just for this situation. Mr. Potter is one terrifying kid. But I can't wait to see him stick it to these inbred morons"
~~ A/N
Don't worry about the M.Contract in this fic. I'm using it to show how cold and calculating MC can be. So if you are expecting it to be like every other fic where they fall in love, or they will all of a sudden realize their differences and live happily ever after. You will be very disappointed xD
I'm leaving their future blank. So i might make them mellow out. But i doubt there will be any love. We will see. Depends on the writing, sometimes it just writes itself. I didn't plan for Shinichi Kodo from Mha:Code to end up with both Rumi and Momo. The plan was only Rumi. But the plot was too good and it ended up being both of them.
