Chapter 41: Squib Bloodlines

"Dumbledore?" The Minister of Magic muttered as she looked at Dumbledore and the paper.

Dumbledore was confused, "What's the matter?"

She handed the page to him. Dumbledore's brown rose up, "My great-great-grandfather had a grand-uncle squib?"

Magnus had no idea what was being talked about, so he went ahead and took the paper, after all, it was his future being discussed. But after taking a look at its content, his jaws hung open. He read it from the top.

Relations:

1. Merlin Emrys Bloodline - Pure, Direct(Full Claim)

2. King Arthur Pendragon Bloodline - Pure, Direct(Full Claim)

3. Dumbledore Bloodline - Faint, indirect. (No Claim)

Reading this, Magnus looked at Dumbledore in shock and asked, "How?"

Dumbledore was equally as much in the shock, "I don't know. I never really knew my grandparents, let alone my great grandparents."

The head goblin spoke, "Such events are normal. All humans in the world are interconnected, whether you want it or not. But, most of the time, the similarities in the blood are so low that it doesn't get detected.

"I can assure you, if you were to do an inheritance on all muggle wizards, you'd find many Blacks, Malfoys and Lestrange. Dumbledore family is like that too. Besides, His Majesty is not very closely related to the Dumbledore family, it is probably because of his strong magic that this was detected, if it were his parents, it wouldn't have happened."

Dumbledore nodded. But still, this was big news for him. He had no real family other than his younger brother, who was also unmarried. He knew that with him and his brother, the Dumbledore bloodline would end. And now, finding Magnus to be carrying it was somewhat relieving to him, knowing that his bloodline, even if very faint, would keep on living.

Magnus, meanwhile, continued to read the list of his assets, inherited.

Magnus was excited to read all this. He knew that what was written was just the tip of the iceberg and there was so much more to see. For example, the wands and books in Merlin's vault. Not to mention, the crown, robes and weapons in Arthur's vault. There was also the shining gold.

Magnus looked around with a smile. He was filthy rich.

Dumbledore then asked, "I've never heard of these vaults before. I thought they were all numbered."

The head goblin answered, "They are all numbered except these two. These two vaults were made by Merlin himself and all the protection was set by him. It is located in the deepest parts of the bank and even we don't dare to go there. For one, reaching it is very hard and two, we don't want to face the anger of Merlin's magic. As we are supposed to, we kept the vaults safe and that's it."

This was true. Although these Goblins couldn't open them, they still saw it as their own property all this time. But now, they had no choice but to let Magnus take it.

~Hmm, why are they being so nice to me?~ Magnus wondered.

"Come with us if you want to check the two vaults." The head goblin said.

Magnus nodded, "Okay, take the lead. Professor, I will be back in a bit."

By saying this, Magnus had barred anyone from coming with him. He wanted to check the vaults by himself first.

So, he followed the head goblin. They sat on a railcar and travelled deeper, navigating the complex labyrinth of tunnels underneath Gringotts. Magnus was amazed by how big and elaborate it was, for all he could see, there was dark space and a deep dark pit with no end in sight.

"Who made this place?" Magnus inquired.

"It was our ancestor, the creator of this bank, Elder Gringotts. King Arthur had graciously given this land on lease to Goblins. We built this place with our own hands. It took years, and whenever needed, we still dig it. It was not made in a single day or year, Your Majesty, it is still being made." the head goblin explained.

It took them a while, and soon they came to an end of the rail. But, it turned out, this was not the end. This was the furthest the rails could go. Beyond this was a deep ravine. A gondola lift was going there.

"The vaults are much deeper than where our goblins can reach by digging. The ground here is too hard to work with. It is still surprising to me how Merlin made it there." the goblin said.

They boarded the Gondola lift and descended into the dark ravine. Only their gondola was a light source in the dark space there. Magnus looked down from it and really felt creeped out. He had no idea how deep it went.

"How deep does it go?" He asked.

"Enough for us to see magma," Goblin answered.

Magnus took a cold breath. The fact that he was still seeing darkness below meant that they had a long way to go.

"Tell me, what kind of services do you provide?" He inquired, seeing that the goblin was very polite with him.

"Anything related to money management or asset management. Also, as you just saw, inheritance management." He explained.

Magnus thought for a second, "Hmm, do you give loans too? What about other services? Restricted to your specific abilities, let's say, forging weapons and gold."

"Yes, we give loans with enough collateral. As for the other things, we do not serve wizards and witches. But since it's you, as long as you pay, we'll do it. What is it that you need?" the goblin asked.

"It's not something, as it's not a physical thing. What I want is your help in researching and creating a rune system. That can let us use muggle electronics in the vicinity of magic." Magnus said.

The goblin rubbed his chin, "Hmm, we have researched it in the past. But could not produce results. If you want, we can sell you the research."

"Only if you also sell its patent." Magnus haggled.

"If you may as graciously renew the lease, I would agree." The goblin said, finally showing his true colours.

~I knew it, so this is what he wanted.~ Magnus muttered to himself.

"Only if you vow to never use a dragon to protect vaults. I am an Emrys and Pendragon, and history is clear in how close my bloodline is to dragons. I can still hear the cries of the dragon you have kept here. If you promise this in writing. I will sign a lease for 50 years." Magnus bargained.

"150 Years," the goblin haggled too. He could always find more ferocious beasts to safeguard the vaults, but the existence of Gringotts was important for that to happen.

"100, no more than this." Magnus sternly said.

"Agreeable." The goblin shook his hand.

Magnus, with a smirk, looked down at the red dot, getting bigger. ~Haha, 100 was my plan all along.~

The goblins were afraid of losing the bank, so they easily agreed to 100 years term. The lease signed by King Arthur had ended hundreds of years ago, but nobody came to object so they kept quiet. But, now. They can finally breathe without worry.

After a few more minutes, strong heat started radiating from below. The two goblins accompanying him started heavily sweating. Meanwhile, Magnus was unaffected.

*BAM*

The gondola lift touched the ground. Magnus looked around. They were on a small mountain, surrounded by a sea of lava. From his understanding, this place seemed to be fully enclosed, meaning that this was not a part of some volcanic activity. The whole place was made of magic.

"Your Majesty, please follow me. The vaults are inside this mountain." The head goblin led the way.
