Setting Up Everything (II) & Gringotts (I)…

[POV Reo]

Dixy looked horrified when she saw Nemuri and Momo empty their stomachs.

"Please punish Dixy master! I should have told you before what happens with Side-Along Apparation" Dixy said and kneeled on the ground. I looked around and saw many were giving us odd looks.

"Dixy, you won't be punished. Don't worry... I should have also known this beforehand" I told Dixy who still didn't seem to calm down. I asked Dixy to clean the mess we have created, she snapped her small fingers and took care of it. Elf magic is pretty awesome...

Nemuri and Momo were finally up on their feet and looked slightly pale.

"I am never doing that again" Nemuri said with full determination in her voice but I have to dash her determination sadly.

"But it is one of the main means wizards and witches use to travel" I said and Nemuri immediately paled a lot. Even though she looked only 20 years now, hearing my words seemed to make her 5 years older.

"You said one of the main means? Their other means must be a lot better" Momo said but unfortunately, I had to disappoint her too.

"No... all of them are similar to this if you don't prefer riding on a broom" I deadpanned. Hearing me made Momo's hope shatter and I could swear that I heard the noise of glass shattering.

"I think, we have gained enough attention by just standing here, we should go in" Rumi said while pointing towards the people looking over us. Rumi was right, we have gained enough attention now and after sending Dixy back we walked through the bronze doors. The goblin guards outside looked completely unfazed by our previous fiasco.

After entering the bronze doors we walked down the entrance hall and found another set of doors but this time they were made of silver. These doors were also flanked by goblins wearing armors and carrying metal axes and like I had thought I could also control these metals even though I didn't exactly know what they were made of. There was a warning written on the doors-

Enter, stranger, but take heed

Of what awaits the sin of greed

For those who take, but do not earn,

Must pay most dearly in their turn.

So if you seek beneath our floors

A treasure that was never yours,

Thief, you have been warned, beware

Of finding more than treasure there.

I didn't care about the warning with all the metal here, I could walk right through here without doing anyone anything and no one would be even able to put a single scratch on me. I could feel all the metal coins underground. The metals imbued in the buildings. If I want I could rip apart the whole Gringotts like a wet paper bag but why care...

While we walked by the doors the goblins seemed to be scanning us but didn't seem to do anything other than that. From what I remember any forms of deception didn't work in were and aging potions could also be called a means of deception. I couldn't care less if goblins could see our child forms and underestimate us. As long as other humans saw us as adults I have no problems.

We walked through the doors and entered a vast marble Hall with long counters and goblins sitting behind desks and speaking with wizards. I walked up the smallest line I saw, the girls followed my lead and stood behind me.

It was finally our turn and the goblin was giving me a toothy grin, it would most people out and annoying was just a bonus.

"I want to have an inheritance test along with them" I said and pointed toward the girls. The goblin's smile enlarged and it was quite vicious but I didn't even flinch that seemed to surprise him slightly. The goblin snapped his fingers and another goblin came towards us. They spoke something in 'Gobbledegook'. Quite a mouthful for a name of a language.

The other goblin nodded his head and turned towards us "Follow me humans" the gobline grunted to us and started walking. I didn't need to say anything now so I silently followed him.

Within a minute we finally reached a room, on the door 'Inheritence Office' was embedded with what seemed to me was gold. The goblin opened the door and spoke to the old-looking goblin inside in Gobbledegook and the older goblin looked at us and gestured us towards the seats.

While we sat down the goblin who brought us here left the room. "I have met a lot of muggle-borns like the 4 of you take this test but none of them exited this room with happy news" the goblin said while his mouth showed his sharp teeth.

"We think we might be lucky... just a simple imagination" Momo didn't give me time to answer. Well, I would have said something similar too... I sulked, I wanted to look cool after all.

"Of course... that would be 100 Galleons each. If you don't want to take the test and still leave this place. After all, it would save all of our time and time is money after all" the goblin said and gave us another of his vicious smile.

Damn... I fucking forgot to Galleons, I should have remembered how money-hungry they are. This was quite stupid of me...!!!

"Dixy" I called softly and Dixy appeared inside the room. The goblins changed slightly seeing me own a house elf. Most muggle-borns don't own a house elf. Even though his expression changed slightly I clearly noticed.

"Would you be able to bring us 400 Galleons?" I asked the small creature.

"Dixy can do that master Reos" the elf said while nodding her head fervently and popped away.

We waited in the room silently for a minute and Dixy popped back in the room carrying what seemed to be a bottomless bag. I took the bag from her and told her to return to whatever she was doing. I opened the bag and as I have thought it was a bottomless bag but I can not going count on Dixy's calculation skills next time. She didn't know what 400 Galleons were and brought as much as Galleons she could.

I took out 100 Galleons and placed them over the desk. Looking at the gold the old goblin gave another vicious smile and took out a small bowl and knife and pushed them towards me. I have to give him my blood and I have read enough Harry Potter fanfics in my previous life and I know very well how my blood could be used.

"Before I give my blood I need an oath from you" I told the goblin. The old goblin looked like he ate a bug but still didn't look hostile.

"And please tell me what this oath would consist of?" the old goblin asked me while his features turned slightly hostile but I and the girls didn't even flinch.

"Nothing much, the oath would entail that none of my blood would be used for other purposes than the inheritance test" I said calmly. The old goblin just stayed like that for a few seconds before giving a boisterous laugh. The old goblin finally calmed down and raised up his finger. The tip of his finger glowed slightly and started speaking.

"I, Bladerazer, swear on my magic that all the blood you give would be used up completely for the inheritance test" the goblin said and did a Lumos spell to show that he still had his magic. Well... that was a really nice display of wandless magic.

I picked up the dagger and sliced my hand open and let my blood flow in the small bowl. As soon as the blood filled up the bowl to a certain point, my hand healed completely without even leaving behind any mark or blood and even the blood on the knife vanished.

"Good" Bladerazer said and took the small bowl filled with my blood and poured all of my blood on a blank parchment. The bowl was made of something special or had some charm on it because not a single drop of my blood remained in the bowl. The blood was absorbed completely by the parchment and some writings appeared on the parchment. The goblin didn't look impressed at first but the moment his indifference turned into complete shock.

He raised up his head from the parchment and looked at me with complete shock on his face while my face was marred with my usual gentle smile. The goblin kept doing that a few times, he tried to speak a few times but nothing seemed to come out of his mouth. Of course when suddenly the heir of the richest wizard family appears it would be shocking.

Bladerazer finally calmed down his feature and walked out of his chair leaving us slightly confused as soon as he opened the door he shouted something in Gobbledegook and immediately another goblin came frantically running.

"Hello! My name is Bonecrusher and I am the account manager of the Ravenclaw vaults and accounts" the goblin firsthand introduced himself before doing anything. I just gave him my usual smile and decided to introduce myself.

"My name is Itsuki Reo, just call me Reo" I spoke...
