The information collected by Kalidi was almost all from the mouths of the Elves of various large families.
In fact, the members of the Elves' race valued status very much.
Even if they were enslaved by the Wizard, Jon's family, as an independent entity, had no qualifications to be compared with those ancient families. He was just a subsidiary of the Yang family.
He was just like a retainer knight of a noble.
But after Helga descended with the power of a legend, Kalidi's identity changed.
His magic power and bloodline were marked with the mark of Hufflepuff, which was an ancient and noble symbol. If it was displayed outside, then he would be the representative of the Hufflepuff family. And because Helga was basically never completely dead, although she was no longer in this world, [Deep Blue Sea] would not give her any less power. Kalidi could basically be considered as Helga's personal Elf.
The Elves of the Hufflepuff family were already very noble. Among the Elves, the Hogwarts who had been transformed for thousands of years did not care about this kind of suppression, but they had to respect Helga Hufflepuff and her family. This was the reward that Helga received for helping the Elves fight for their status a thousand years ago.
Jon sometimes felt that this "reward" was more like a kind of transaction and investment. Helga paid a certain price in exchange for the friendship of the Elves, but in the eyes of Kalidi and his people, it was simply a gift.
Jon was naturally happy to benefit from this kind of attitude. As the only descendant of Helga who could do things in the Wizard World, Jon's appearance was now somewhat similar to Helga's.
This was the side effect of the bloodline purification potion. When the bloodline in his body was purified, he also inherited Helga's appearance and characteristics.
Jon's facial features were now beginning to soften, but he did not look too feminine. First, although Helga was very beautiful, it was not a flirtatious kind of beauty. Second, Jon had another bloodline in his body that was on par with Hufflepuff's bloodline.
The Chinese bloodline at least left Jon with black hair and skin that was not so white. And for Jon, he still preferred not to look too similar to Helga.
Helga's portrait was hanging in the common room. Although no one said anything about his usual maverick behavior, there were always bad comments when it was mentioned. Some people even speculated that he had an unusual relationship with Dumbledore.
If they were too similar, there would be rumors and slanders.....
Although he was not afraid of rumors, he knew that rumors would harm people...
Once the rumors spread, he would not be able to do anything.
That was why gossip was a fearful thing, not just rumors. Jon knew better than anyone the principle of flattery.
His identity was not a secret to the ghost in the castle's portrait and the few professors in the school. Once the rumors spread, those who were interested would definitely be able to find out his identity.
Voldemort even wanted to recruit Neville, so there was no reason for him to let him go.
When the time came, even if he did not want to fight Voldemort head-on, he would be forced by the school's general situation and his safety. He would have no choice but to deal with Voldemort.
No one knew better than Jon that fortune and misfortune came hand in hand in this world.
Wasn't he a good example?
In the history that Kalidi had collected, such stories were not uncommon. A thousand years, twenty-two generations of family inheritance, and hundreds of outstanding Magi who had changed their names were not even worth mentioning in the face of the final decline of the Magi.
Because no one could reach the heights of their ancestors, the Legendary blood was silent and disappeared without a trace.
Until Jon.
Jon flipped through the stories in his hands. Kalidi's handwriting was very beautiful. He corrected the meaningless nonsense and left these "biographies" that could be bound into a book.
Although there were more and less, each generation could be connected, and the parentage relationship was reasonable.
"Kalidi, I have to say, your ability has really improved."
From the bound parchment, he gently made a mark on the content that he wanted to use.
Jon returned the book to Kalidi.
"Sort out the pages that I made a mark on and give me a separate copy. The rest may be put in my study for the genealogy."
Jon said softly.
In the Western magic world, there was such an advantage. Because there were few people, as long as one was willing to put in the effort, the parentage relationship of a family could be easily figured out.
Perhaps this genealogy could be passed down like this.
"By the way!" Jon added, "Remember to write about my grandfather and my father."
Kalidi nodded and left with an excited expression. The honor of writing a genealogy for his master's family was not something that all elves could obtain.
Not to mention that the genealogy he wrote was for the Hufflepuff family.
Looking at the back of the elves leaving, Jon chewed the food in his mouth expressionlessly, but his mind was thinking about something else.
He didn't ask Kalidi to collect these materials just to complete the history of the Hufflepuff family. This kind of history was not important to him, because Helga was still alive. What kind of history the Hufflepuff family had had nothing to do with him.
History could be changed by people, this was something that everyone was well aware of.
Even if this piece of history was incomplete, Chown had a way to make it complete.
His real purpose was to find a few materials, just like how he asked Kalidi to pick out several materials.
The decline of a legendary family was not something that could be done in an instant. It was bound to be something that was caused by some wrong decisions made by a generation or several generations.
Such things happened almost every day in this world. Just like the life and death of people, such as the Morning Dew and the Phantom, the survival of a family was not that serious.
The reason why Jon looked for this was, firstly, to give an explanation to Helga, and secondly, to find something that could be used for himself.
Just like how part of the relics of the Hufflepuff family were stored in the vault of the Smith family, many things were passed down from ancient times, but because of the environment, they could no longer be used at this time.
Others could not use them.
Jon knew very well how lucky it was to have Helga's personal teaching, so he occasionally regretted it.
After all, it was the decline of a family.
But fortunately, Jon still had a chance.
"If I can't trace back to a legend, then why not try to become one?"
