《THE DARK ENIGMA • TOM RIDDLE》XXXVIII. Sirius Black
Advertisement
I sit on the bed as I sigh and look up and the ceiling, Harry and I had been forced to share a room.
Harry stares out the window, watching as the train passes making the building shake.
He then walks over to a book which was sitting on the small table infront of the fireplace.
He takes the restraints on the book off as the eyes of it open.
He picks up the book as suddenly it tries to bite him.
He backs up and onto the bed as it fell on the floor, it then goes under the bed as I quickly stand up next to Harry.
'Who decided that making a book like that was a good idea?!' Nyx hisses as I laugh at the snake, Harry grins slightly aswell.
The noise the book was making stops as Harry leans over the side of the bed, looking under.
His head shoots up just in time as the book looks around confused before going under the bed again.
Harry then takes his shoe off and drops it down, the book immediately going after it.
Harry jumps down onto the book as I snicker.

Me and Harry walk out the door as we watch a cat chase the familiar rat scabbers around the corner.
"I'm warning you granger, keep that bloody beast of yours away from scabbers or I'll turn it into a yea cozy!" I hear Weasley yell as I perk up.
Hermiones here?
"It's a cat, Weasley. What did you expect? It's in his nature." Hermione responded as me and Harry walk down the stairs.
"A cat? Is that what they told you? It looks more like a pig with hair, if you ask me." Weasel taunts as Hermione glares at him.
"That's rich, coming from the owner of that smelly old shoe brush!" She scoffs as she continues to pet the cat in her hands.

"It's all right, crookshanks... you just ignore the mean little boy." Hermione mutters to the cat who just purred in response.
"Harry!" Weasel boy exclaims as I lean against the side of the stairs.
"Y/n!" Hermione says with a soft smile at me, I wave excitedly at her.
———
"Egypt— what's it like?" Harry asks weasel boy as I lay my head on Hermiones shoulder. Hermione brushed her fingers through my hair, getting rid of any knots.
"Brilliant! Loads of old stuff, like mummies, tombs. Even scabbers enjoyed himself!" Weasel boy says as the rat tries to get out of his hold.
"You know the Egyptians used to worship cats." Hermione says as weasel boy glares at her
"Yeah, along with the dung beetles." Weasel boy scoffs as I grin in slight amusement.
"You're not flashing that clipping about again, are you, Ron?" George asks as him and Fred walk over to us.
Hermione walks over to Ginny as someone approaches us.
We follow him over as he sighs worriedly.
"Harry, y/n, there are some within the ministry who would strongly discourage me from divulging what I'm about to reveal to you. But I think you two need to know the facts, you both are in danger. Grave danger." He explains as he grabs our shoulders.
"Let me guess, Sirius black?" I question as he glances behind him before sighing and looking at the wanted poster.
"What do you two know about Sirius black?" He asks as I go to answer but was stopped by Harry who answered instead.
"Only that he's escaped from Azkaban." Harry answers as the male sighs and nods.
"Do you know why?" He asks again as I shake my head.
"Thirteen years ago, when you stopped..." he trails off as i quirk at eyebrow.

"Voldemort?" Harry finishes as Weasley shakes his head in slight fear.
"Don't say his name." Weasley demands as Harry looks at him boredly.
"Sorry." He apologizes blankly as Weasley just nods.
"When you stopped... you-know-who, black lost everything, but to this day, he still remains a faithful servant. And in his mind, you two are the only thing that stands in the way of... you-know-who returning to power." He says as I snicker slightly at the idiotic idea.
"And that is why he has escaped from Azkaban. To find you two." Weasley says as he leads up to an area no one can see us.
And how would you know that? There's something wrong with this entire situation that I don't like...
"And kill us..." Harry mutters, seemingly having his suspicions aswell.
"Harry, y/n, I want you two to swear to me that whatever you might hear, you won't go looking for black." Weasley demands as I glare at him suspiciously.
"Mr Weasley, why would I go looking for someone who wants to kill me?" Harry asks, far too innocently and seemingly oblivious.
I smirk slightly as I lean against the wall.

The Depths of Magic
Synopsis It's the year 2052 and the release of the new next-generation full-dive VRMMO game called The Depths of Magic is hitting the world by storm. The game's technology will surpass all other games before it and shock the masses. Hector who goes by the name Locke inside the game is an experienced player of the genre. He is looking to continue his goal of enjoying gaming as well as the competition that goes along with competing for the top ranking spots. Novel Summary The Depths of Magic is a LitRPG novel focused on a Fantasy VRMMO setting. This is not a harem novel. In-Game systems The Depths of Magic features state-of-the-art technology never before seen in Hector's world. The key system the novel will bring up often is the Second Brain. The Second Brain system is more like a guidance AI for the players in the game that acts as if you had a second brain assisting your every action. How much guidance this AI will give is based on its experience or mastery skills a player will receive in the game. The guidance is seamless to a point where a player won't even realize they are being assisted, it's will feel like what they are doing is something they could always do. However, once they leave the game it will become quite apparent that they were receiving heavy guidance. The purpose of this system in a writing sense is to explain why a player can realistically become more powerful, more agile, or more skilled than they would otherwise be able to as a human. To give an example if someone could move faster than a bullet, how would a normal human brain be able to perceive and control this movement properly. Or how could a player who has never held a sword before become as experienced as someone who has trained with the sword all their lives? The magic system will be another focus of this novel. I don't want to spoil anything here but it should be an interesting one. The hope is that the system I have made will spark discussion between the readers on what combinations will do what. I already have most of it, but it will be fun to read as the author. Side notes My general focus for this novel is to attempt to make the in-game systems make sense. To give a vague example I have read a lot of novels of this genre and some have the habit of just creating such powerful items that it just breaks the system, and somehow the MC keeps finding challenging situations even with those items. What tends to happen when I read a novel like this I just ignore the stats of the items he is getting because the numbers don't even matter anymore. Release schedule: The chapter release schedule due to real-life complications is to release as I write them. Patreon setup: 1 chapter early release/discord access. Free content up to the current chapter includes an excel sheet that contains Locke's current stats at the end of the chapter. This is extra information for those that are interested.
