《Harry Potter: Blood of the Dragon 》Chapter 269: Godfather Magnus

"HAHAHAHA... you are one of us now, Severus."
"If you want to save her, spy on that mud-blood prince."
"Do as we say, or she suffers."
"DON'T SEV! Don't do it."
"Look at his face."
"Yeah... I bet he's dreaming about Lily."
"Who knows, it could be some other girls? A man can do anything in his dreams after all."
"HEY! What's with this stupid discussion? Be civil."
Severus, who was having a nightmare not long ago, now felt the dreams becoming chaotic. Slowly, his brows furrowed and he opened his eyes as he broke off from his sleep.
The first thing he saw was the chin view of Ragnar and Magnus. And mind you, looking at a human from his chin was not beautiful. They look like some monster.
Severus in shock jolted up. But then he recognised the two fools. They were fighting over his dreams and now arguing with Emma.
"What's with so much noise? Can't I even sleep?" Severus grunted.
Magnus happily stood up, "AH! Ragnar... look at what you have done. You disturbed him."
(ಠ_ಠ)
Ignoring Ragnar's gaze, Magnus helped Severus sit, "What happened to you, brother? I just cast a simple spell on you."
"I... I don't know. Maybe it hit some nerve or something." Severus said. In reality, he was not sure. What happened to him was so bizarre. ~Maybe I was too stressed out?~
"OKAY... STEP ASIDE PLEASE." Madam Pomfrey pushed Magnus aside and started checking Severus.
"Hmm, you seem perfectly normal now. You can go to your dorms or stay here for the night. I recommend you stay here so I can help if something happens again." she suggested.
Severus immediately accepted, "I will stay here then."
Magnus and Ragnar, respecting his choice, left after saying good night. They went to their dorms, as they had already missed dinner.
"Did he stay there due to his fears?" Ragnar asked.
"Yes, I think so. I'm gonna read a book now." Magnus said and took out the Blood Of The Dragon book. It was written in a level of runic language that Magnus could somewhat understand. It took him time but he could do it.
So he started reading from 9 PM to 12 in the morning. In the three hours, he made decent progress. The content of the book was about what after-effects one might face about doing a ritual to mutate yourself with a beast's blood.
"Hmm... It seems I should read this book completely. " He muttered after reading about the visible effects.

Because it was written by Merlin, who also had dragon's blood, the same conditions applied to Magnus.
That it is possible that after mutation the animal's nature might also bleed into the nature of the person. Magnus felt it, he could generate fire naturally. Then there was also the mention of increased greediness and thirst for money, especially gold and diamonds. There was also the increased pride in oneself.
Magnus felt like he was really reading about himself. And it felt weird. So he ended the reading session there.
*Yawn*
"Goodnight, Rag." Said and went to sleep. Ragnar was still working on his potions and alchemy formula.
Ragnar knew that without a good ability to cast charms if he wanted to become strong to the point he's overpowered, he'd have to work 10 times harder than a normal wizard.
Ragnar sighed, ~Are you seeing me old man? You didn't raise a lazy boy.~ he muttered, remembering the kind old man with glasses who raised him when he had nobody.

[Small Omake - Skip if you have not read Grandpa Universe.]
Heaven,
*Aaachooo*
"Boss, please don't do that. You just caused a tsunami on 100,686 planets." Dobby complained from his table.
Alexander Maxim Universe, also known as Grandpa Universe or Supreme God, wiped his nose. "Forgive me, Dobby. Just had the urge. I wonder which being remembered me so strongly that even I felt it."
"Alright, send the next person in. Ah, it's 100 forced labour kids who died in that factory crash? Quickly, prepare the playroom. Bring all the toys there and tell Bijuu-vengers to put on their avengers costume to act the play. Also, send a lightning strike on the person who owned the factory, the one who built it, the government officials who turned a blind eye. And let the CEOs of the companies that buy the products from these companies face bad luck for a month." This was God's decree and it shall be followed immediately by angels overseeing the target world.
This was how god rules. Righteous, kind and... Fabulous as always.
...
Hogwarts,
Magnus woke up the next morning to see Summer sitting on his chest and looking at his face. Magnus nearly had a heart attack from the scene.
"Wha... What happened, Summer? You wanna go out? Ah, sorry dear, I forgot to keep the window open. You should have pecked my face." He apologised to the kind lady owl.
He quickly opened the window and let Summer fly out. It was 6 AM in the morning. He didn't want to sleep anymore so he decided to go to the common room to read the latest newspaper. He had bought a subscription for all of them. He had even told Magical Daily, his own news company, to send him muggle newspapers as well in the bundle.

Without a care, he went out. It was nearly the end of September already and being in highland up north, the temperature was falling.
So the fireplace was lit, but the common room was empty. He flicked his wand and put some jazz on. Next moment he made tea for himself.
However, just as he was about to take a seat, he noticed a little boy, most likely from 1st year, sitting on the floor by the fireplace and writing something on a notebook. The boy was startled by the sudden music.
Magnus was still not familiar with all the 1st years so he went to the boy. "What are you doing?"
The boy flabbergasted, "Ah... I-I was j-just revising."
Magnus glanced at the book, "Oh, you're studying charms? That's my strongest point. What problems are you facing?"
The boy shyly answered, "I... I am very slow at grasping the spells, your majesty."
"Just call me by my name. And didn't you get my personally written booklet? It has all the shortcuts and tricks to casting all the spells and solving the problems for the whole 1st-year course in all subjects." Magnus asked him while sipping the tea.
The boy looked confused "Booklet? No, Mr Pendragon, I did not get a booklet."
*FACEPALM*
"Ah, I forgot to distribute them this year. Just wait, I will be back in a minute," he remembered and dashed to his room. He looked in the cupboard with the background sound of Ragnar snoring.
Soon, he realised he didn't have any copy of the study material left. So, he went to Regulus' room. Regulus was in the 2nd year and just like him, shared his room with two other 2nd years. Thankfully, the two boys he shared his room with were normal and even Magnus' admirers to some degree.
Knocking would have disturbed them all so he just opened the bed and looked for Regulus. He found him in the last bed. He quickly went to him and tried to wake him up.
"Regulus, do you have the 1st year's study material? I need to make copies," he asked.
Regulus was in deep sleep and snarled, "Aye... go away Sirius, you traitor."
"It's me, your brother Magnus, Regulus. Wake up." Magnus shook him like a doll.
"Hmm? Ah... what... what? Magnus? W-What are you doing here?" Regulus' sleep was gone and left him in confusion.
"Give me the 1st year's study material." He asked again. Soon, Regulus got up from his bed while complaining and fiddled in his suitcase. He handed it to him and followed behind as he was sleepless now.
Magnus first went to his room and made some copies of it. At least 30 of them. This was the highest student number in a year most of the time. Then he returned to the fireplace. "Here, take this and read it. By the way, what's your name?"
The boy happily took the booklet like it was the treasure bestowed by the gods. "Thank you, Mr Pendragon. I am Caspar Evans."
"Hmm, are you by any chance related to Lily Evans of Gryffindor?" Magnus asked him curiously.
"No, I've never heard about her before." He answered.
Magnus nodded, ~What a small world. But I wonder if people with the same surnames are somewhat related?~
"What is your birth status? I mean no racist thing, just asking out of curiosity." Magnus inquired while trying to make it as digestive as possible.
Caspar felt slightly nervous but truthfully answered, "I... I am... I don't know, Mr Pendragon. My mother is a squib and my father is a muggle. What does that make me?"
Magnus scratched his head. There was no terminology for such a person. So he just scoffed, "Huh, that does not make you anything, Caspar. It makes you the same as me, humans. Did anybody bully you?"
"No, not yet," Caspar answered. He said yet because he knew it was inevitable with his birth status.
Magnus all of a sudden took out a badge with Slytherin's logo on it. "Wear this. If anybody ever comes to bully you, tell them you have this, and this badge means you are under my protection in the school. If anybody bullies you, I will bully them ten times."
"T-thank you, Mr Pendragon." Caspar quickly put the badge on his chest. It was small and round but didn't look that ugly. It was also somewhat honourable to wear a Slytherin badge. Now, if others wanted it, they'd first have to accept Magnus as their protector.
And this way, unknowingly, Magnus started the norm of him being jokingly nicknamed Godfather Magnus.

Shadows by the Sea
In order to live freely, you must have a name. But names in Samark aren't easy to come by, especially for those without money or family. And for the children willing to do anything to seize a name, sometimes their path leads them into the shadows.....
8 103Contact Through Voided Lenses
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Edit: Fixed some inaccuracies in the synopsis. The void is a vast unexplored ocean filled with various wonders and dangers all waiting to be explored by those brave enough to travel and record. Many souls do find themselves brave enough to face the vast distances, the various risks to personal safety and do the hundreds of task required on a craft. However, at times the void itself can be boring with absolutely nothing to do but as time pass and more and better technology is reached, things got better. The various trips got faster, communications became faster than light and you can be home to see your loved ones after only months now. Through the various planets whether rocky or gaseous, the various stars whether small or giant, the various systems both eerily similar or completely alien. As part of an expeditionary scientific exploratory survey craft, one could see that the void offers no reprieve from all the discoveries and wonders. At times, it can feel empty and silent where no soul can hear you scream and at others it can be overwhelming with sudden phenomenon that can overwhelm the brightest of minds. The void itself is a truly fascinating ocean where one must chart the various islands or drown in its deadly tidal waves. But the question still remained no matter how you try to hide it in of itself… is there truly other intelligent life out there? Are we alone in this ocean? Those very questions still haunt the minds of those on the crafts themselves as they brace for every jump ready for the unknown and the known. Many would try to explain that yes there is other intelligent life out there whilst other still say no after 2 centuries of continuous flight out of the home system. Still, those are questions that bury deep in the minds of the crew and those at home as the voidcraft jumps to a system with a single yellow star orbited by 8 other planets with one crowning blue jewel being the 3rd closest with its 5 oceans and 7 continents, a planet called Dirt which is inhabited by a primitive species called Humanity. Hello, author here and this is my newest dive into writing particularly for the Writathon currently in progress being my first one. I hope you give me story a try but in case you still want more information on what you’re getting into, below are some pointers about the story itself. First Contact: CTVL is a story about a first contact scenario between an advanced alien civilization and a slightly more advanced modern day humanity on their planet called Dirt. Characters: The story will take place mainly on the perspective of the alien visitors themselves though there will be human POV characters who will show how the rest of humanity react through media and forums. Action: It won’t be an actual alien invasion but you have to see for yourself how well first contact went. Sci-Fi: I will be very forward here, I WILL bend the rules of physics in order to add in parts of the plot and there WILL be parts that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Theme: It will be a brooding story talking about the futility of pe… Just kidding, it’s mostly wholesome stuff to be honest here. Alien: The aliens themselves will… actually why should I tell you, you have to go and read it to find out what the aliens are though I will draw a few things here and there to aid in the process. Extra tidbit: If you are a grammar nazi or someone who really wants a realistic scifi story... this story is probably not for you at all. Anyways, that’s pretty much all I can say before I spoil something major of the plot itself, the story is slice of life so make sure that type of story is what you like because I am terrible with anything else as I found out, anyways, have a good time everyone and good luck to the other Writathon participants.
