Sorcerer Supreme at Hogwarts (English Versión)-Chapter 132: Truths of the World

Truths of the World

After being caught by their grandparents, the entire Flamel family was having tea with snacks in Nicolas's office while chatting.

"Do you think our headmaster is just as crazy as the ones we encountered?" Wanda said as she stuffed her mouth with cookies.

Nicolas and Perenelle had heard the whole story of this adventure, so they were well-informed.

"Maybe he was at the beginning, but now that Harry joined our family, the old man left all the problems to me," Stephen said with annoyance. "Though he didn't seem so obsessed with the prophecy, did he?" Stephen added, thinking lightly.

"There's actually a pretty simple answer to that," Nicolas interrupted, catching everyone's attention.

"As you said, in the other worlds you visited, there were slight changes, but they ended up completely changing the story," Nicolas said as he looked at them seriously. "So, our world also has one of those changes."

"What do you mean?" Stephen asked quickly.

"It seems that in that world, when you arrived, no one appeared to check what you were planning. If someone had appeared out of nowhere in our world, I'm sure one of the elders would have shown up quickly," Nicolas said, drawing everyone's attention.

Especially because he used the word "elders" to refer to someone else, a word he never used. After all, all the wizards he knew, he saw them as children because of his age.

"Who are you talking about, Grandpa? And why do you say elders?" Tony asked quickly.

"I think it's time for you to know," Nicolas said as he stroked his chin, looking at his grandchildren intently.

"As you know, there are powerful wizards and witches in the International Confederation of Wizards. They are the ones who watch over powerful wizards all over the world. After all, any of us could cause great destruction if we lost control. But, initially, those who had that job before the Confederation was created were seven ancient families. They were also the ones who created the Confederation," Nicolas explained seriously.

"It's said that these families are descendants of the first wizards who ever existed, although obviously, no one knows if that's true. But these families are much older than any current family. It's said that the heads of these families have a way to live hundreds of years easily. Although, in reality, it's not quite like that," Nicolas said calmly.

"The heads of these families can live peacefully for 400 or 500 years, but they can also connect with their ancestors to gain wisdom," he explained.

"Why have I never heard of these families?" Stephen asked quickly.

"A couple of years ago, during the witch hunts, it was said that it was a targeted attack on these seven families. Even though they had the power to eradicate any humanoid who went against them, they simply chose to hide. But they are still protecting parts of the world in secret: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Antarctica, Europe, and Oceania. Well, it's also said that they're maintaining the seal of something, but that's really just speculation," Nicolas said calmly.

"Great, that's all we needed, possibly powerful hidden families," Tony said.

"I wouldn't worry too much about them. The only times they've appeared in history were to protect magical interests and maintain balance with Muggles," Perenelle said quickly to avoid scaring her grandchildren. "And you all are quite strong for your age, you can easily defeat Dumbledore," she added quickly to encourage them.

"But what does that have to do with Dumbledore not worrying about the prophecy?" Natasha asked quickly.

"It's because Dumbledore knows about the existence of these families. After all, he is the Supreme Wizard of the Confederation. He knows many secrets that wizards normally don't. Many prophecies existed in the past, but some were easily destroyed by these families from the root once they appeared," Nicolas explained.

"I see. It makes sense that he's not so obsessed if he knows there's someone who can handle the cleanup," Stephen said.

"Tell us the truth, Grandma. When you were at your peak, how long would it take you to defeat Dumbledore?" Wanda asked quickly.

"One second," Perenelle responded with a smile.

"Argh! Grandma is a monster," Wanda said, surprised.

"Well, let's leave that conversation for now. It's time for you all to return to your rooms; it's quite late," Perenelle said quickly.

Then, all the Flamel siblings said goodbye to their grandparents and left, leaving the couple alone in Nicolas's office.

"Do you think everyone is being watched by those elders now?" Perenelle asked with a bit of concern.

"It's certain. They must have noticed not only their power but also their technology. Especially now that they can travel to other worlds. But if they haven't appeared until now, it means they don't see them as a threat. Don't worry, we've been under their surveillance since we were teenagers," Nicolas said, reassuring his wife.

"Even if they see my grandchildren as enemies that must be purged, even if my bones turn to dust, I will fight them to the death," Perenelle said seriously.

"Hahaha, I don't think they want to have you as an enemy again. After you defeated the matriarch of that family 500 years ago, they had to send a representative to apologize. Even though we're old now, thanks to Stephen's tools, we're young again. Even with our mana sealed at 90%, it won't be easy to defeat us," Nicolas said, turning serious.

"Well, you've always had it easier. You always fought using your alchemical tools," Perenelle said, complaining a bit to lighten the mood.

The next day, Stephen was walking down the hallways heading to the dining room.

"I found the runaway boyfriend who left his beautiful girlfriend the day after having a great date to have fun with his siblings," Fleur said as she appeared in Stephen's view.

"Sorry about that. To be honest, I was feeling a bit embarrassed," Stephen said as he approached Fleur and wrapped his arms around her waist, giving her a hug.

"So running away was your first idea," Fleur said, slightly annoyed.

"Hey, you're making me feel bad," Stephen said with a guilty look.

"Just kidding," Fleur said with a smile as she gave Stephen a big hug.

"How about we go on another date right now to make up for my disappearance?" Stephen quickly suggested.

"Mmm, that might be a bit complicated because I have a little stalker," Fleur said with a smile, glancing behind her at a column where a small head was peeking out, watching them both.

"Prince!" Gabrielle said, realizing she'd been discovered as she ran toward Stephen with joy.

"Hello, Gaby. Long time no see," Stephen said with a smile as he gave the girl a light hug. "Why are you following your sister?" he asked with interest.

"Well... Dad told me to watch her so the fly wouldn't get close. But I didn't see any fly around," Gaby said, confused.

Stephen didn't know how to respond to that, while Fleur chuckled softly.

"Well, Gaby, it's because the giant fly is right here," Fleur said, pointing at Stephen.

Gaby didn't understand and just looked at Stephen, trying to figure out what her sister meant.

"Since you're here, how about I show you around the school?" Stephen said quickly, changing the subject.

"Sure!" Gaby said cheerfully, grabbing one of Stephen's hands and one of Fleur's.

The three of them walked around the school, showing the little girl the sights. Students from all three schools passing by looked at them with interest, as if they were watching a family strolling around.

As they walked, they encountered Wanda, who froze in place as she looked at Stephen, Fleur, and then Gaby.

"You... you... beat me... Daphne!" Wanda shouted and, for some reason, ran off while yelling her girlfriend's name.

"What was that?" Gaby quickly asked.

"A crazy girl. Just ignore her," Stephen said with a sigh.

"Wow, what a cute family," said a voice behind them, and the one who appeared was Natasha, looking at them with a smile full of interest.

"Wow, she's so pretty!" Gaby said, looking at Natasha with surprise.

"What a well-mannered little girl," Natasha said as she crouched down to pat Gaby's head. She had met her during the Quidditch match, but they hadn't talked much since the girl spent most of her time playing with the Flamel twins and Artoria.

"This is Gabrielle, Fleur's younger sister," Stephen said, though Natasha probably remembered her.

As they were chatting, the twins came running.

"Boss Natasha, we found Sirius," Fred said while giving a military salute.

"He's hiding in the kitchen," George added.

"Well done. You're free to go," Natasha said as she stood up and quickly walked away.

"Boss?" Stephen asked.

"Sorry, boss. She's stronger than us," the twins said, apologizing to Stephen for changing bosses. But they said nothing else and ran off again. Stephen didn't pay it much mind.

After a few more steps, they ran into Tony and Loki, who were arguing while walking together.

"Idiot, what does it matter if your so-called Asgardian technology is better than human technology? I achieved better results in a couple of years than your species has in thousands of years," Tony said.

"Don't talk nonsense, human..." The verbal fight was about to escalate, but luckily, Gaby saw them.

"Tony! Loki! I found you!" she shouted cheerfully as she let go of Fleur and Stephen's hands.

"Hey, kid. What are you doing here?" Tony asked quickly, stopping his argument with Loki.

"I'm exploring Hogwarts with the prince and my sister. Huh?" she said as she turned around to point at Stephen and Fleur, but they had disappeared.

Ding.

Tony pulled out his phone, which had just beeped with a message, and quickly read it.

[Take care of Gaby for a while. Good luck.]

"Sigh. That guy..." Tony said in annoyance, looking at the message. But then he looked at the girl in front of him and remembered his own daughter, so he simply sighed and took her along to continue exploring the school.
