Ragnok looked at her "Hadrian is also Lord to be…"

"Slytherin."

As soon as the words left the mouth of Ragnok, the reactions were varied throughout the room. Shock was prevalent on the face of Andromeda and Narcissa, Ragnok looked amused. Harry was curious when he heard the name.

It took a few moments for the two sisters to digest the new that they were just told. Slytherin…that name carried weight in their world, a lot of power, political and just power in general. There were only a few other families that carried the same weight as Slytherin. Although over the last few decades the name has been seen in a darker light, due to the pureblood dogma of the last war, the name Slytherin was still view as a most ancient and most noble house. It was Slytherin after all that had the idea of the school of Hogwarts, it was his land and his castle. Although few knew of this fact.

"Which side of the family did that title come from?" Andromeda was the first to recover and ask.

Ragnok still looking amused was reading the paper when Andromeda asked her question. "Neither." Was the answer that came from Ragnok's mouth.

"How is that possible?" Asked Narcissa. "If the title did not come from his mother or father how is he the heir of Slytherin?"

Ragnok now finished reading the rest of the paper answered the question. "Hadrian is the Lord to be of the house of Slytherin by a few factors. You see the original Slytherin was one of the very few that studied under Lord Emrys, thus he had powerful magic and was also one of the few that had the gift of sight. He had foreseen that the family would go through some difficult times. So, he changed the requirement of inheritance. The house of Slytherin can be inherited through magic, not blood. For this to happen there must not be any other living blood of the Slytherin house left and whomever has slain or defeated the previous lord shall be the new Lord Slytherin."

"Through old and powerful magic, Hadrian is now Lord to be of Slytherin. I am sure you both are aware of what that title entails and of the political weight it carries." Ragnok explained.

Once again both sisters in a dazed, digested the information and nodded to Ragnok's question. Young Harry on the other hand had felt a change in the room after the word Slytherin was mentioned.

"Isn't Slytherin one of the houses at Hogwarts?" Harry asked the room.

The question snapped the sisters out of their dazed state and they quickly remembered that Harry was in the room with them.

"Yes Harry, Slytherin is one of the houses at Hogwarts, but like Ragnok just explain. It is also a most ancient and most noble house as well." Answered Narcissa.

Narcissa then turned to Ragnok. "Can we keep the news of him being lord Slytherin between us until we are ready for the rest of the world to know?"

"I will have to report that a there is an Heir to the house of Slytherin, but I have the right to keep who the lord is a secret for now." Ragnok said. "However, be warned that if a majority vote is needed for whatever reason, then the lord or their proxy must vote."

"Understood Ragnok and we appreciate this."

"It is my pleasure, as I have said before. I love interesting clients, and young Hadrian is quickly becoming one of the more interesting ones I have." Ragnok said with an amused smile.

"I would like all the houses financials in some take away folders please." Asked Narcissa, getting into business mode.

"I would like all the houses legal contracts and business adventures please." Asked Andromeda.

"I can see that you both are already trying to see what you can do with the power of theses houses. Very well, I shall have those folders ready for you before you leave here today. As you both are no doubt aware there might be a contract out there for the house of Slytherin. I shall investigate it and see if it is one young Hadrian can get out of, but do not hope for it. The Slytherin are an old house, no doubt that they would have bind their contracts with magic." Ragnok explained with his now constant amused grin.

"I do hope that there is no another contract that he needs to be worried about. He is already engaged to 6 different girls. And is also Lord to be of several different houses." Andromeda said with an exasperated sigh.

"Now Lady Black and Lady Tonks is there anything else I can do for you today?" Ragnok asked.

"No, I believe that is all for today." Narcissa said. "Thank you for your time Ragnok."

"Your folders are waiting for you outside this door, good day."

And with the goodbyes said, the meeting was over.
