The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 368: Ludwig von Beckmann

"Eh?!"

Emily screamed, and the resentment on her face faded quickly, turning into sheer shock.

And what came immediately after the shock was embarrassment.

She didn't think anyone would dare to come here to pretend to be Link's grandfather. This would be very easy to wear, meaningless, and no one could afford the consequences.

So in other words, he almost beat Link's grandfather just now?

Emily who reacted quickly hid her wand behind her, and smiled awkwardly at the handsome old man who was blocking the way, a little at a loss.

The old man opposite clearly saw Emily's embarrassment.

A smile emerged from the corners of his mouth and gradually rippled away.

"What a wonderful girl, Link is really lucky to be with you. Come, don't be shy, this is my meeting gift for you."

While speaking, the handsome old man took out a brooch placed in the crystal panel and handed it to Emily.

The brooch is simple in shape and shield-shaped as a whole, with a semi-upright lion and scorpion engraved on it, and the outer ring is wrapped with bauhinia ornaments.

There is no doubt that this is an ancient noble medal!

Emily was still a little confused at the moment, and she had to reach out to pick it up when she saw it, but Link on the side grabbed her.

This made Emily even more dumbfounded. She turned her head to find that Link's face was already gloomy. The ebony wand had been drawn out by Link for some time, and it was flashing a dangerous gray light at this moment.

Regarding his cheap grandfather, even though Mrs. Foley was reluctant to talk about it, Link still collected some information under curiosity.

This person was named Ludwig von Beckmann, and he was a famous hero.

The Beckman family under his leadership once became one of the most powerful families in Germany and even in Europe, and monopolized all the smuggling business of controlled potions in Europe.

Even if it is now defeated, even Beckman is the only member of the family's direct line, but the camel is bigger than the horse, and the Beckman family is still in the top five in the ranking of the pure blood wizard family in Germany, family strength and heritage. Compared to the Forli family, which is now in full swing, it is even better.

But despite this, Link's perception of this grandpa was not good.

This ill feeling came from Mrs. Foley.

Although Link didn't know what happened between Mrs. Foley and Beckman, judging from the results alone, the relationship between the two of them was very poor.

Under the influence of Mrs. Foley, Link did not think that his relationship with the Beckman family and Beckman himself was not an enemy, but not a relative, at best, a stranger who could barely cooperate.

That's it, it's because the old German wizards took their lives to support them last time!

"Hmm! ~ It looks like you already recognize who I am."

Beckman smiled and tilted his head, seemingly indifferent to Link's aggressive performance, and said as if he had reacted suddenly, "But Link, are you jealous? Don't worry, I This time I came here and also prepared a gift for you. A gift big enough to absolutely satisfy you."

"I am very happy that Mr. Beckman can come to participate in the engagement ceremony between me and Emily. Where can I dare to ask for any gifts. However, the dinner is going on very hot now, I think Mr. Beckman might as well go back to the court and continue to enjoy. ?"

Link shook his head.

He spoke very politely, but there was no slight smile on his face, and his eyes were even more icy.

At this time, Emily finally reacted when she saw the situation. The look in Beckman's eyes was no longer as respectful as before, and even the wand that had been hidden behind her was taken out again.

Beckman had a panoramic view of all this, but the smile on his face remained undiminished. Just as he spread his arms, he was about to speak, but there was a rush of footsteps not far away.

Mrs. Foley and Old Kled walked quickly towards the three of them. Among them, Mrs. Foley didn't have much expression on his face, while Old Kled had a savage face. As he trot, he questioned:

"Why do you **** old thing appear here!"

Hearing that the smile on Beckman's face quickly faded, he said faintly:

"Today is an important day for Link's engagement. As his grandfather, I naturally have to come over and witness with my own eyes."

"fart!"

Old Kled was very angry, and this anger was not only directed at Beckman but even transferred to Mrs. Foley.

He hurriedly stood beside Link, and the bloodshot one-eyed one-eyed stared back and forth on Mrs. Foley and Beckman, "I knew it, I knew it would be such a result. Haha! Don't think that! I don’t know what your idea is, and I won’t let you succeed!"

"Your old immortal temper is still so hot, it's almost exactly the same as old Foley." Beckman still maintained his grace and said, "I was not willing to take Leo into consideration because of the bad temper of your Foley family. Ni got married, but I didn't expect..."

Beckman didn't go on, just spread his hands and shook his head reluctantly.

This scene almost made Old Klie mad directly, and immediately, more foul language spurted out of his mouth, and Beckman hit back with a weird yin and yang.

For a while, the two were deadlocked.

Link ignored the two people who were scolding the street, but instead turned his gaze to Mrs. Foley.

Fliffe was the one who really undertook the engagement ceremony. The scale of this engagement ceremony was not large, and it could even be said to be very hidden. The news was only circulated in small circles, so Beckman, who was as far away as Germany, Appearing here, there must be an inseparable relationship with Mrs. Foley.

What's more, judging from the fact that Mrs. Foley was able to help Link invite so many foreign aids for old German wizards, Mrs. Foley and the Beckman family should have regained contact a long time ago.

Perceiving Link's probing gaze, Mrs. Foley's expression was a little complicated.

She sighed deeply, and a left-to-right separation directly separated Beckman from the old Kled, who had already been so noisy and was about to fight, and said loudly:

"Don't be embarrassed here, let's talk next door!"

The dance party in the auditorium is still going on right now. It's really not a good place to talk about things and quarrel. The movement they just made has attracted a lot of curious eyes.

Old Kled and Beckman finally realized this, and they snorted in unison, and then got into the small reception room next door like a race.

Naturally, the three of Link would also go, but before entering the guest room, Link finally couldn't help but frown and asked:

"Mother, what the **** is going on?"

Mrs. Foley's expression was a little gloomy, but it was said that she still touched Link and Emily's heads, forced a smile and said:

"Mom won't harm you."

Link naturally believed in this, because Mrs. Riverly had proved it countless times in the past.

And since it won't be a bad thing this time, it should naturally be a good thing!

Link stared at Mrs. Foley, with a smile on her face, and led them into the reception room with their heads upright.

The reception room that Old Klie and Beckman chose was not large. Except for the seat that was obviously the main seat, only two leather sofas on both sides were left.

The two of them no longer quarrel now.

As a guest, Beckman naturally occupies a sofa. As for old Kled, he waited for Mrs. Foley and Emily to sit on the other sofa, and after Link sat on the main seat, he stood there. Behind Link, Beckman stared at Beckman with anger.

The light in Beckman's eyes, who saw this scene, was brighter, and there was a hint of relief in his eyes.

From the order of the seats alone, he could tell that the real allegiance of the Foley family is no longer Mrs. Foley, but his little grandson, who has not been masked for a long time, and has not even graduated from the wizarding school.

"Ahem, Link, this is your grandfather, and my father, Ludwig von Beckmann, is also the current patriarch of the Beckmann family." Mrs. Foley introduced, "This time he listened. I said that you are about to get engaged, so I came forward."

Although he already knew the details of the other party, Link patiently listened to Mrs. Foley's introduction before turning his attention to Beckman on the other side, and said blankly:

"Mr. Beckman, you and I know very well that your purpose for coming this time is not so simple. I don't think we need to continue to linger, so please tell me straightforwardly."

Happiness! ~

Beckman applauded when he heard the words, not at all irritated by Link calling him by his name. He looked at Link with a look of artwork and said:

"Link, you are really outstanding. I already knew about your excellence when Leo Ni asked me for manpower to support you. Later, I saw that you won the Triwizard Tournament from the International Witcher United News. The champion, after repelling the attacks of the Death Eaters and Voldemort, I even further raised my expectations for you. But when I really see you now, I realize that I still underestimate you. I dare to say you Definitely the best person in our Beckman family for hundreds of years..."

"My young master's name is Foley."

Hearing the excitement of Beckman's words, Old Kled interrupted unhurriedly, and his eyes were full of contempt when he looked at Beckman.

This made Beckman's smile disappear again.

Seeing that a quarrel was about to begin again, Link waved his magic wand and said after a loud noise in the air:

"I said, don't sell it anymore! Mr. Beckman, just say what your purpose is. I have no time to talk to you in business here!"

Beckman obviously didn't understand the meaning of commercial mutual exaggeration, but when he heard that he still closed his expression and smiled:

"I want you to inherit the Beckman family."

'it is as expected. ’

Link nodded, which was almost what he expected.

After all, according to the information obtained from Mrs. Foley, Mrs. Foley's remaining elder brothers, sisters, uncles and uncles had already been killed in the first Dark Lord War and the subsequent Great Purge of the Ministry of Magic.

This means that for the older Beckmann family, Ludwig von Beckmann is the only one left in the direct family, and it is normal for him to find an heir.

But even after confirming the news, Link still didn't feel much joy in his heart.

Link never had the illusion that a pie would fall in the sky.

He also didn't think anyone would be so generous that they would willingly hand over a large sum of their inheritance to a foreigner.

Even if this foreigner is his grandson by blood.

When he thought about it, Beckman’s idea was probably to change his name to Link von Beckmann, and then while inheriting the Beckman family, he also changed all of the Forli family’s properties to von Beckmann. To achieve the goal of occupying the magpie's nest and regaining the glory of the Beckman family.

It is a pity that Link is very satisfied with the current family and surname, and has no plans to change it.

In this case, the inheritance of the Beckman family has nothing to do with him.

Link glanced at Old Klie, who was already visibly nervous, changed to a more comfortable position and sat paralyzed, using the words of Old Klie before:

"My name is Foley, and my name is Link Foley."

As soon as he said this, the small reception room was silent.

After a long time, the old Kele, who was standing behind Link, gave a strange cry of joy, and grabbed Link's chair back and shouted at Beckman:

"Did you hear? Did you hear?"

Beckman buttoned his ears in disgust, and smiled at Link:

"I have no plans to change your surname. Even if you are named Link Foley, you can still inherit the Beckman family. After all, I have no other descendants."

Old Kled was like a duck whose neck was suddenly pinched, and the strange cry stopped abruptly.

Mrs. Foley nodded at Link.

As she said earlier, she could not harm her son.

Although Beckman is her father, it would be impossible for her to put Beckman into Foley Castle if it hadn't been for the very good conditions given by Beckman.

Link was a little thoughtful when he heard the words, but at this time the old Klie completely reacted and eagerly pressed to Link's ear, deliberately screaming in a voice that everyone can hear:

"Master, this old fellow is a saint! Their Beckman family are all the most loyal saints!"

"what!?"

Emily, who had been silent on the side, jumped up from the sofa all of a sudden.

Link's originally squinted eyes widened instantly.

The term saint also exists in the wizarding world, and its meaning is similar to that in the Muggle world. It refers to the disciples and followers of saints and prophets in general.

For example, Merlin's followers are called saints.

But after the first Dark Lord battle, the meaning of the word saint changed.

It began to refer specifically to the followers of Grindelwald, and it was also a very high-ranking diehard.

Link knew that the Beckman family had followed Grindelwald, but he didn't expect the Beckman family to be saints.

This is more troublesome.

You must know that the International Magic Federation is not as faint as the Ministry of Magic. They have always implemented a high-pressure and lore policy toward the saints.

If he really dared to inherit the Beckman family, then the International Magic Federation would dare to transfer all the pressure originally exerted on the Beckman family to him.

"Well, it's getting late, Mr. Beckman might as well rest at my house for one night." Link got up and said, "As for what you said, I think it's better to consider it longer."

After saying that, Link did not give Beckman a chance to refuse ~www.novelmt.com~ and left the drawing room with Mrs. Foley and Emily.

Old Kled is satisfied now.

He snorted arrogantly at Beckman and walked out.

Before leaving, he turned off the magic lights in the reception room.

For a time, only Beckman was left alone in the dark in the brightly-lit reception room.

However, he was not as disappointed and angry as Old Kled had expected.

On the contrary, his expression at the moment is even a little joyful and lucky.

Because he found that when Old Kled mentioned the word saint, Link didn't have any disgust in his eyes, and he was even a little excited.
