Chapter 5: Summoning Mera, Blood Inheritance?
Cole looked at it and knew that with his current strength, it was impossible to achieve, so he could only take back the backpack. He also checked the system redemption interface, which had many good items:
Magical Creature Horse-shaped Water Monster/10,000 Gold Galleons + 500 Honor Points, Australian Opal-Eyed Baby Dragon/10,000 Gold Galleons + 500 Honor Points.
These magical creatures could actually appear directly on the exchange interface, and as for the subsequent price, gold galleons were nothing to the Black family. However, Cole didn't know how to obtain this family honor value.
"Host: Cottrell Black. Age: 25. Magic value: 138. Special item: Alienated glasses (obtain real biological data to prevent prying eyes). Spells: Apparition Curse Level 7, Oblivion Curse Level 5, Blazing Curse Level 5, Quick Confinement Curse Level 4. Special bloodline: none. Family honor value: five hundred (reward for returning to the family)."
After receiving the system's explanation, Cole understood what the family honor value was about. Simply put, as long as the Black family developed in any way, either with increasing family assets or members, they could obtain family honor points.
After looking at the panel, Cole realized that spell proficiency was divided into levels from one to nine, with significant differences in power. The predecessor was so proficient in phantom movement, so it seemed that he had traveled a lot, but this time there were still too few spells.
Cole had many memory skills, but the system only displayed a few. It seemed not all spells would be included. After looking at the panel, Cole felt more relieved. The spell proficiency could be increased through gold galleons, which was very convenient. He planned to go to Gringotts to withdraw money later, as he wanted to see how much wealth the Black family had left. After being burdened by Sirius, a prodigal son, the expenses of the Order of the Phoenix might not be covered by the Black family. Potions and similar items all cost gold galleons. Dumbledore, an old fox, was always good at deceiving people.
At this moment, Cole suddenly remembered that there might have been another distant visitor just now. "System, who is the distant visitor?"
"Master, I am a prisoner for you. You don't have to worry. I am completely loyal to you," came the calm voice in his mind. Cole was a little confused; this system would also capture prisoners for him. Was it a human being or a magical animal? Cole was a bit curious, "Take it out."
"Yes, Master."
A figure appeared out of thin air and hit Cole's bed. Fortunately, the mattress was thick, so the body bounced a few times. Cole stood up and took a closer look, sighing in his heart at the Creator's amazing work.
The blonde woman was wearing a robe, and her exquisite figure made the temperature in the room rise. At this moment, she was looking around with a blank expression. When she saw Cole, she quickly got out of the bed, stepped on the floor with her bare feet, and fell to her knees.
"Meera Kurich Sadri met the master."
Cole looked at the woman lying on the ground and thought to himself: The system really kidnapped someone for him.
"Get up, just call me Master, and introduce yourself."
The blonde woman Meera stood up, placed her hands on her waist, and looked up at Cole slightly. Cole was almost charmed; Meira was extremely beautiful, and most importantly, her eyes seemed to be able to talk.
"Master, Mera is affiliated with Archmage Cook's Mage Tower. She is currently a third-level wizard apprentice and mainly studies potions and materials." Feeling Mera's magic level, Cole realized that although the energy of the two worlds was different, they reached the same destination through different paths, and they were almost the same. It's just that Mera's magic seems to be more pure and active than his.
"Kreacher, come here," Cole shouted, and the elf Kreacher immediately appeared in the room. "Master Cole, what are your orders?" "Arrange a room for this young lady. Mera, you go down and rest first." Kreacher did not refuse Cole's order, and at the same time, he showed no concern for Mera's appearance. As a house elf of the Black family, he only needed to listen to his master's words.
After the two left the room, Cole asked the system, "Why does Mera appear here? Does the system still have this function?" "The system reminds the host to carefully look at the exchange plane. Gold galleons can be exchanged for wizards. Junior wizards only need one thousand gold galleons. In addition, host, a family is not a family of one person. Bloodline heirs are indispensable. Mera has been gifted as a mage since she was a child. She is also a noble lady with the bloodline of the Shadow Snake."
Cole just looked back from the redemption panel and was still sighing in his heart that it was really cheap. A junior wizard was almost at the level of an ordinary adult wizard. It was quite a bargain. "So what? Isn't it normal for wizards to have the blood of magical animals? The Gaunt family is still a Parseltongue." "Host, you have to know that any wizard's bloodline is not necessarily revealed. The bloodline in Mera's body can be inherited."
"Also remind the host that the Shadow Snake is a level three dangerous creature. It can compete with the plane mage when it is mature. The system took this from an archmage." Well, Cole knows that the system is not a good thing. Isn't plundering what a mage should do? Fortunately, he's not a good guy, he's the same guy. This system only satisfies Cole's character. "Okay, I get it."
Don't you just want him to pass on the heirs and enrich the Black family? Why do you have to work so hard? Cole is not a monk. Cole stood up and left the room, attracting a lot of attention from the corridor. It seemed that these old Black guys had already seen Mera. According to the tradition of the Black family, shouldn't they despise this kind of mixed-race wizard?
Under the appreciative gazes of all the ancestors, Cole understood that Mera's bloodline was extraordinary. Based on her temperament, appearance, and aristocratic demeanor, these old guys thought she was a pure-blood noble. Walking down the stairs, Mrs. Black's portrait was covered, and Cole was not interested in scolding her. He walked directly to the fireplace, grabbed a handful of Floo powder, and arrived at Diagon Alley.
A puff of soot rose from the fireplace in the Leaky Cauldron. Cole coughed and came out holding his nose. His exquisite wizard robe was also covered in dust. "Cleaned up." Cole took out his wand and cleaned himself, ignoring the people in the bar. Voldemort had just fallen, but many people came out to drink and celebrate. Of course, it was basically just a few people sitting around talking quietly, after all, the Death Eater liquidation was going on.
