CH 10 OWLS and Goblins

After Tonks and Moody, left Harry gave his friends a tour of Evans' Mansion. They ended up in the garden and relaxed on a bench. As they relaxed, they noticed three owls coming toward them.

"It must be out OWL results." Hermione said starting to feel nervous about the results as the owls landed in front of each of them.

"Harry, why don't you go first?" Ron suggested.

Harry nodded his head as he opened the envelope and read the results

Astronomy A

Care of Magical Creatures E

Charms E

Defense against the Dark Arts O

Divination E

Horology E

History of Magic did not finish No grade awarded

Potions E

Transfiguration O

Hermione smiled when she saw the results. "Eight Owls including two Outstandings and five Exceed Expectations. Well done Harry." Hermione said as she hugged Harry. Ginny also hugged Harry.

"How did I pass Divination and get an Outstanding in transfiguration?" Harry asked. Harry noticed Ginny smiling at Harry's question.

"I know how you got the E in Divination and will explain after Ron and Hermione tell us their grades." Ginny said

"You want to go next Ron?" Harry suggested

"Sure." Ron said as he read his results. "Failed History of Magic and got an E in divination just like you Harry. Passed everything else." Ron said.

Hermione hugged Ron. "Seven owls. Well done Ron." Hermione said.

"Mom will be glad. Well done Harry." Ron said.

"You to Ron." Harry said as everyone looked at Hermione. "It's your turn Hermione. You cannot delay it anymore. Hermione." Harry told her.

Hermione was nervous as she opened the envelope. She read the results. Ron smiled at her.

"I knew that you would get Outstanding at everything. Except for DADA where you got an E." Ron said.

"I made a simple mistake on the exam." Hermione said.

"It shows that you are human." Harry said. "Now Ginny, You said you know why I got an E in Divination?" Harry asked.

"Yes. They only grade they award is an E. Except for certified Seers who automatically get an Outstanding and don't have to take the OWLS and NEWTS." Ginny said.

"How did you know that?" Hermione asked.

"I found out from Luna. Firenze discovered Luna's ability when he took over the class and informed Professor Fitwick who notified the Department of Mysteries.' Ginny said

"Luna's a seer?" Ron asked.

"Yes. Luna has the gift of extra sight. It allows her to see things that we can't see." Ginny said.

"But Divination is such a woolly subject." Hermione said expressing her doubts about it.

"The only real purpose for Divination is to identify seers. They are naturally drawn to the subject and a proper divination teacher is able to identify this and notifies the Department of Mysteries to help them develop their gift." Ginny said.

"What happens to the rest of them?" Hermione wondered.

"They end up as fortune tellers in the muggle world. But most students in divination have abilities in other areas of magic and develop that area for their career." Ginny said.

"That's enough talk about Our Owls and Divination." Harry said as he looked at his friends. "How are things with all of you?" Harry asked wanting to change the subject away from him.

"Bill got a new job." Ginny said. "He is the new liaison to the goblins." Ginny announced.

"That's great. I am surprised that Fudge named Bill." Hermione said.

"Fudge didn't have a choice. Bill was the only human the goblins would accept." Ron said.

"Fred and George's joke shop is doing very well. Mon is finally happy for them," Ginny said.

"That's great." Harry said.

The three of them continued to chat until it was time for them to leave. Harry said goodbye to his friends and went back into the mansion.

________________________________________________________________

The following day Harry headed down to Breakfast with Sir David and Rose. Jonathan and his family had returned to Privet Drive. He ate breakfast with them.

"Are you ready to head to Gringott's?" Sir David asked.

"I guess so." Harry said as he and Sir David held the Portkey Pretty soon they ended up at the Lobby of Gringotts. They walked up to the desk.

"My name is Harry Potter. My Grandfather and I have an appointment with Ragnok." Harry told the Goblin.

"Would you follow me to his office Lord Potter?" The goblin said. When they arrived outside Ragnok's door, the goblin looked inside the office. "Lord Harry Potter and Sir David Evans to see you." The Goblin announced.

Ragnok nodded for the two of them to walk in. They both sat down at the desk. "Thank you both for coming. " Ragnok said looking at the file. "Lord Potter, according to this you took and passed at least one OWL exam. Is that correct?" Ragnok asked.

"Yes I did." Harry said.

"Then we can start your formal OWL conference. Also present is your current Gringot's guardian Sir David Evans. Sir David do you formally agree that Lord Potter has taken and passed at least one OWL exam and is ready to move to the next stage of nobility?" Ragnok asked.

"Forgive mw but what does that exactly mean? Neither Harry or I understand exactly what is going on and would like to have some understanding what is going on before we agree to anything." Sir David said

"As a proper guardian I would have expected you to act in Lord Potter's interest. According to noble tradition, there are three stages/ Stage 1 is from birth to the Owl conference. During this time the Gringotts guardian has full decision-making control over all Gringott's matter except for school related matters. "Ragnok. "SStage 2 begins at the end of the OWL conference and last until the Noble graduates from Hogwarts. During Stage 2, the noble has full control of the trust vault and prepares to assume their noble title. The purpose of the meeting to explain what stage two means in detail. The final stage is full adulthood. "Ragnok says. "So Sir David as Lord Potters guardian do you agree that Lord Potter has passed at least one OWL exam and is ready to move on to the next stage of nobility?" Ragnok said repeating his question.

"Yes I do agree." Sir David said answering the goblins question.

"Very good. Now we can formally start Lord Potter's OWL meeting. As of this date, Lord Potter has his name on five Gringott's vaults.

The first vault is vault number 687, which is the potter trust vault. This vault is to cover Lord Potter's needs until he graduates from Hogwarts. There are currently 75,000 Galleons in the vault. As money is removed from this vault, it is replaced from money from the Potter Vault.

The Second vault is vault 895, which is the Potter family vault. There are currently 56 million Galleons in the Potter vault. Plus personal property and real estate belonging to Lord Potter. The total value of the vault is 125 million Galleons.

The third vault is the Ministry of Magic vault. As court wizard, your name is on the vault but it is under the control of the Minister of magic. When you fully assume your duties as Court Wizard the Minister will be required to give you a report on this vault.

The fourth vault is the Royal vault. This vault is controlled by the current British Monarch Queen Elizabeth the second but you have access to it on her behalf. The current value of this vault is 3.5 billion Galleons mostly in property and historical objects. You can only access the objects when needed to perform your duties as Court Wizard.

The fifth vault is the Evans vault. As of now it is currently under the control of Lord Potter." Ragnok said.

"What do you mean?" Sir David asked interested in the fact that his family had a vault.

"As you might not be aware most muggleborns are actually squibs who left the Wizarding world over a century ago. The Ministry orders the vaults of these families to be seized and the assets to be used by the Ministry. When a member of that family returns to the Wizarding world the vault and assets are returned to the family member. "Ragnok says.

"And my family is one of those families?" Sir David asked.

"Yes. As such, your daughter was entitled to get the assets of that vault returned to her"Ragnok said.

"I don't remember Lily mentioning this?" Sir David asked.

"That is because no vault has ever been returned to a muggleborns student. Usually a blood ritual is required and the Ministry banned them on muggleborns." Ragnok said.

"To keep the vaults away from muggleborns." Harry asked.

"Partly correct. Under Wizarding, custom any witch or wizard returning to the Wizarding world is automatically considered a first generation pureblood. However, a blood ritual is required. In 1895 the Ministry banned blood rituals for minors when a muggle parent complained about a child having to give blood." Ragnok told Harry.

"And the Ministry agreed because it keeps people who lived as muggles from claiming the status as purebloods." Harry asked.

"Yes. Since then the numbers of Pureblood wizards have been dropping. If the rituals were allowed, again we would discover that 75% of muggleborns students are actually from squib families and would be considered purebloods. But when Lord James Potter and Lady Lily Evans got married a blood ritual was required and we discovered the Evans vault." Ragnok said.

"That would mean that my mother and I are…" Harry said before being interrupted by the goblin.

"You both are legally purebloods. But we are not allowed to announce it." Ragnok said.

"By who? " Sir David.

"It was an order signed by the Chief Warlock." Ragnok announced.

"DUMBLEDORE!" Harry announced.

"But why?" Sir David asked.

"I do not know. Nevertheless, we are required to obey an order written by the Chief Warlock. "But we can announce Lord Potter's and his mothers status as purebloods in a press announcement about this meeting. "It would help Lord Potter in his duties as Court Wizard.

"That will be fine." Harry said quickly.

"Now that has been settled we have two more matters to discuss. The first matter is your status as Court Wizard. We must confirm that you are the heir to the title of Court Wizard. Once we do that we will send an owl to her Majesty Queen Elizabeth that the next Court Wizard has presented himself to us and that we have confirmed his identity. She will then schedule an audience with you to formally award you your title as Lord Harry Potter Duke of Hogwart's Magical Ambassador of the Court of St. James to the Ministry of Magic, Head of the Magical Commonwealth." Ragnok explained.

"I will now explain what the duties of the Court Wizard are. Your duty is to represent the Monarchy in the Wizarding world. You will keep her Majesty informed about what is happening in the Wizarding world. In performance of these duties, you will meet regularly with the current Minister of Magic and he will inform you of what is going on. All decisions made by the Wizengamot will come to you for formal approval through your signature. You can reject any such decision but the Wizengamot can override you by a three quarters vote. You must formally approve the appointment of the Minister of Magic and you can remove a Minister of Magic when the Wizengamot passes a motion of no confidence. Do you understand your duties so far?" Ragnok asked Harry.

"I guess so?" Harry said feeling overwhelmed.

"DO not worry you do not formally take over until you graduate from Hogwart's. Until then you will be instructed in your duties and you will have help from your council of advisors."" Ragnok said.

"Council of advisors?" Harry asked.

"Yes. They are four students at Hogwart's whom you will appoint your advisors. They will come from four noble families, which are symbolic of each of the four Hogwart's Houses. They will advise you about what is going on from the point of view of their house." Ragnok explains.

"How will I know who to appoint?" Harry asked.

"There are four traditional families that have served. For the Hufflepuff family the Bones family has served in that role. Susan Bones has been in training for her role assuming that you approve her appointment.

For Gryfindor the Longbottom family has served in that role. Neville Longbottom has also been training for his role again assuming that you approve his appointment." Ragnok said.

"Neville and Susan will be fine." Harry said quickly.

"Then I will send an Owl to them informing them that you have approved of their appointment.

"What about Ravenclaw and Slytherin? " Harry asked.

"They are not as clear cut as the other two houses. The traditional Ravenclaw family is the Boleyn Family. However, the current head of the family is a female whose father has a different last name. You know her as Luna Lovegood." Ragnok said.

"Luna comes from a noble family?" Harry said surprised.

"Yes. However, the Lovegood family has had its noble status suspended due to an ancient debt of honor. Because of this, Lady Luna is unable to claim her title and family vault. As for the Slyhterin family the traditional family is the Malfoy family…" Ragnok said but was interrupted by Harry.

"THERE IS NO WAY I WILL APPOINT DRACO!" Harry said.

"Calm down Lord Potter. Lucius Malfoy is not the eldest child in the Malfoy family. He had an older brother who died during the early days of the war against Voldemot. Lucius Malfoy murdered his brother on Voldemots orders but the Ministry cleared him. You can choose to reject Draco Malfoy for that reason and select a different Slytherin family member. But I would advise you to consult Lord Longbottotm and Lady Bones before you appoint your Ravenclaw and Slythein advisors." Ragnok advised Harry.

"All right" Harry said.

"With your permission then I will send an owl to Her Majesty and to the Bones and Longbottom family informing them of the events of this meeting" Ragnok asked Harry.

"As you wish." Harry said.

"Good. Now let us turn to the second matter we have to discuss. As you know, Lord Sirius Black recently died and we have to schedule the reading of his will. Under noble tradition, a will reading must be conducted under the supervision of a fellow Lord. Lord Black named you to perform that duty. Do you accept?" Ragnok asked.

"Yes." Harry said.

"We have received a petition from a Narcissa Malfoy to move up the will reading due to the fact that the Black family is currently without a head. I would advise you to reject the request. Lord Black did request that the will reading be held as close to your birthday as possible." Ragnok said.

"No. Grant her request. Move the will reading to one hour earlier then originally scheduled." Harry said with a smile.

The goblin smiled at Harry. "A very interesting idea. Grant the request but not in the way expected. I shall take care of leaves one more matter." Ragnok said as he placed a box on the table. "Inside the box is the Potter family ring. If you are able to place it on your finger then from that moment you are the official head of the ancient and noble house of Potter." Ragnok said.

Harry opened the box and placed the ring on his finger. The ring fit perfectly on his finger.

"Congratulations Lord Potter. As of this moment, you are officially Lord Harry potter head of the ancient and noble house of Potter. "Ragnok announced
