And The Answer Is
One word.
Dumbledore.
I could not thank Sirius enough for the potions that purged my system or the healers that finished me off, but with my mind clear the suspicions came to light, the ambitions of others. The manipulations. The mastermind behind it all.
"Deadclaw how much money is in my trust?" I would also need to ask what other vaults I had, but that could wait.
"Your trust is filled with 150,000G every year on your birthday from the main Potter Vault."
"So Dumbledore has taken almost the entire amount from my trust for most of my life?"
"That is correct."
Hmm. What to do, what to do.
"Now that you are emancipated you can take up the Head of both Houses, the Black due to a technicality. Recall all keys, blood bond your key and money pouch, and Dumbledore will be unable to touch your money."
"How am I emancipated? And how can I be the Head of the Black family if Sirius is still alive?" I asked perplexed.
"The Tri-Wizard Tournament declared you an adult, none protested, and it was confirmed by multiple members of the ministry and outside representative's. As for the House of Black, if the Head of House has not claimed the ring within five years of the previous ones death it can go to the Heir – which is you."
"So how many vaults do I currently have? Just the trust and Potter vault?"
Deadclaw looked at me like I was the biggest dolt on the entire planet…. Maybe universe.
"An inheritance test will tell us." Was all he said.
And The Answer Is And The Answer Is And The Answer Is And The Answer Is
"So let me get this straight. I am heir to the Ancient and Noble Houses of Potter and Black, heir to the Noble Houses of Blackburn, Arvadale, and Sorenson? But for the last three I have to blood adopt the child into that bloodline so the future heir carries on the blood?"
"That's is what I said. Why are you repeating everything?" asked a gruff Deadclaw.
"So 5 votes for the Ancient houses, and 2 votes for the Noble houses."
"This is becoming annoying wizard."
"Okay, I'll take up as the Head of all Houses. Does all this make you my new bank manager? I've never meet the other one." That would be the only reason he would be helping me this much, wasn't it?
"If it is your request. I am merely correcting the mistakes of your previous manager. Before you ask he is now dead for violating bank policy."
"It is. Now let's talk some real business."
"After you accept the rings young wizard, then we will make some money." Said a very sharp toothed goblin. Was that a smile?
