Chapter 6
Tony had seen little magic, but seeing that thing that came out of his daughter was pretty gross. Said daughter was going for her fifth tooth brushing while Tony went through her bank statements.
Damn, and he thought he was loaded.
-What are these weekly payments to Albus Dumbledore, Arthur Weasley and Ron Weasley? -He said looking at the only entry that was constantly repeated in the ledgers
-The payment to Albus Dumbledore is his assignment as Miss Potter's magical guardian. The payment to Arthur Weasley is a stipend from Miss Potter's dowry to ensure that the man's son leaves his paternal family to adopt the Potter surname. And the payment to Ron Weasley is to ensure his education as a consort.
-That part is deficient, I have seen that boy stuffing himself a meal as if it were a goose destined to make foie gras. - Haresa said while a magician made cleaning spells in her mouth. - Is there a marriage contract?
-No, but the lady's magical tutor said that negotiations were being made. Even he couldn't make a contract.
-Very good, because the negotiations are cut off-Tony smiled- All the payments are canceled and the money already given back is requested. I will not let my money go to waste like that, the deal is not going to be fulfilled, I demand the money back. It is something basic in contracts
-It will be a pleasure. But we will not be able to take money from Dumbledore, he was literally her magical guardian, the function for which they gave money to the man. But the payment will be cut from now on
The goblin smiled and Tony remembered the stories his mother had told when he was a little boy about those creatures.
-They love gold, Tony, but what they love the most is charging it to the magicians- his mother was also a squib. Tony's father had sought her out to try to have a magical child, which he had not achieved. This he knew thanks to the relatives of his mother with whom he had managed to get in touch
His father had alienated them both from the Zabini family because of his selfish wishes. Although only three of the family members considered them related, according to their great-grandfather
After talking about investments in the Muggle world, the goblin retired with a big smile. Tony couldn't help but shudder. They were more scary than in the stories of his mother
Tony saw Haresa sit up and lean against him comfortably and a part of him was glad.
He hadn't had a family since the accident. It was true that he had robots and avengers, as well as Pepper and more recently Steve personally. But that was not the same as family
She had compulsions of obedience, a magical leech that released her power when she reached a certain amount, loyalty spells, potions that limited her intelligence, and more about her. And that damn snake that had come out of his daugther mouth and that would be in their nightmares for a long time
If it was up to him, he would kill those wizards. But there were witches and wizards from the international council of wizards watching and writing down. Magical Britain would pay dearly for what they had done. In another room Sirius was being interrogated with veritaserum and was clearing his name. They had told him that they would send him to a magical hospital for a while
-------------------------------
The door opened and a plump witch entered that if she smiled she would be like a grandmother offering cookies, but she would give all the air of a high school principal.
-Lady Potter. Before discussing your education options, I am afraid that we will have to give you an exam to assess your knowledge.
-Why? I'm good at studying and got good grades - they weren't the best she could have done but they were acceptable for what they expected of her
-The problem is not you, Lady Potter- the woman looked tired- The problem is that Albus Dumbledore has almost completely destroyed the educational system of Great Britain. What subjects are you studying?
-Defense against the Dark Arts, Transformations, Herbology, History of Magic, Potions, Charms and Astronomy. This year the electives began
The woman seemed even more depressed
-Are those the core subjects? And the electives?
Haresa passed her the list and the woman seemed even more depressed. Then she asked for the books Haresa had used and looked at them with the face of crying at any moment.
-Most of this is outdated and disproved. They have misprints and were written at least two hundred years ago. The methods are too complicated and do not include modern discoveries that would make them much easier and faster to understand and perform. And these subjects…. How can they find acceptable to teach these things? It is no wonder that Great Britain is at the bottom of all countries. Its citizens are practically illiterate.
-What does it mean?
-Enchantments and transformations are studied together in the early years, the same goes for potions and herbology. History occurs in conjunction with Muggle history, and we do not focus on the history of creatures unless a specialization is studied. Defense is compulsory, yes, but with books written this century and Astronomy is an elective subject. And necromancy, healing magic, protection magic, elemental magic are missing. Creation of spells and ... -The woman put her hands to her head- We will evaluate her anyway, but the best thing would be for her to continue her studies with private tutors and go to the Salem school three days a week for the practices of spells I guess she will have performed her summer spells
-We can't use magic outside of school
The woman literally started crying as she said it
-Lady Potter. In no country is it illegal to use magic outside of school. It is true that it is restricted to certain spells and only in front of marked people. But if they don't do magic, how will they remember how to do spells? How will they improve? It's like forbidding Muggles to read during the summer months.
Tony, decided to intervene at that point. Surely out of pity to the woman who seemed about to desperately cry
-Where could we get those tutors?
------------------------------------
Haresa looked at the room in the Avengers tower. She liked high places and now she was in a bedroom next to her father's. Although JARVIS had told her that the place was completely isolated, so Haresa assumed that among the occupants of the Avengers floors her father had a lover or a stable partner.
She looked at the new clothes in the drawers and closet and dumped Dudley's old clothes and Mrs. Weasley's sweaters with compulsions woven into them into the garbage chute. According to JARVIS the Avengers had all bought some to make the room more cozy. Although she would never publicly acknowledge that the stuffed bee on the bed was very cute, at least more so than the six-foot and quite realistic bear in the corner.
There were a couple of shelves with novels for young teenagers of various kinds.
-I am surprised that there is no game system in the room
- You father wanted to install it, but Captain Rogers said that the one they had in the room was enough. You would also like to know, miss, that he is clearing the lower floor to the housing area right now so that you can receive your classes.
-What was there originally? I hope I don't move anything important
-Don't worry miss, they were just supplies, unfinished projects and extra pieces of weaponry for the Avengers. Although only the last seven floors are considered housing, the truth is that the top twenty floors of the tower are the ones with the best security system and where the truly important things are stored.
