A week passed, Magnus was enjoying his life in Hogwarts. He would usually spend most of his time either studying, practising magic, trying to make the liquid luck, pranking his friends or flying.
But, now his life had a headache, that girl Emma, was always trying to get her revenge by trying to prank him, although none of them succeeded. He had asked her to get him an advance potions book. She did it grudgingly but her grudge didn't stop.
"I'm telling you, Mag. She got a crush on you, I mean, if I was a girl, I'd be after you too, you are every girl's dream, a strong, intelligent guy, their prince charming, heck, you are going to be the king." Ragnar had gotten really comfortable with his words around Magnus, but around others, he was still like a puppy, though Magnus was changing that too, by slowly making him grow a spine.
Snape, who was walking on the other side of Magnus, shrank his nose in disgust, "What a vile thought to have."
Ragnar scoffed, "Don't lie to me, Severus, if you were a girl, you'd be drooling over him too."
Magnus laughed, "Well, he already got someone to drool over so stop this hanky panky talk of yours. Did you practice the charms I gave you? You should at least know the lifesaver ones."
"Yeah yeah, I did. But they are too hard for me, I mean, I can't seem to be able to move my wand correctly." Ragnar argued.
Snape shook his head in disappointment, "Such a waste of talent, your potioneering is probably the best in history and you can't even cast charms."
Ragnar looked at him with fake anger, "Yeah? You're the one to say. Stop oogling that Gryffindor girl now and focus on your studies."
"Okay, stop fighting now, I will be going with the old man Dumbledore to Gringotts tomorrow. I gotta take the inheritance test." Magnus revealed.
"Hmm, Mr Malfoy was talking about discussing something with you yesterday, he did not ask me but I did hear him," Snape suddenly spoke.
"Sev, stop idolising that man. He is a manipulator and he's been trying since I stepped on this school grounds. If you're just after his family name and resources then I've got more than that. Though I don't know about the money side of the situation, I will know that tomorrow." Magnus advised him.
They walked into the Slytherin Dungeon. But as soon as Magnus entered, he felt the presence of magic and immediately ducked.
"AHAAA... NO..." It was Emma, trying to plaster a cake on his face.
*BAM*
It hit Ragnar's face. He turned angry at her, "You, I will not help you at Potions now. Huh..."
Magnus smirked, "That is once again, 12 losses and 0 wins for you. Just give up, girl. You are too small for this."
He turned to the side and went to talk to Narcissa Black. She was although a manipulative woman, she sometimes seemed very nice as if that was her original personality, but the cold one had taken over. He couldn't imagine how a man like Lucius was able to win her heart, he had nothing except good looks and a family name... maybe some brain too but it was as good as nothing.
"Good evening, Miss Black." He greeted her.
"I told you to call me sister or just Narcissa. No need to be so formal now, Magnus." She replied with a smile, which seemed half genuine and half politically driven.
She sat by the fireplace, reading some random book about blood purity. He was still not sure if she knew he came from a muggle family though.
"Still having trouble with potions?" She asked.
"Yup, I'm just average at it. I want to be better." He said, with a bit of frustration in his sound.
She chuckled, "Hehe, it's okay being average in a few things when you are outstanding in all others. Have you thought about what you will do after school?"
"Be the king maybe?" He muttered. By now, everyone knew the reason he had Pendragon in his name.
"Maybe I can help." Lucius appeared and took a seat.
Magnus took his senses to the highest limit, this man was not to be trusted at all.
"And what might that be?" He questioned.
"You are an elite, Mr Pendragon. You are the descendent of one of the oldest magical families and the ruler of a nation. You deserve to be someone great. I myself think that if I do work for someone, he must be the greatest." Lucius started weaving his web. He was trying his best to manipulate Magnus. He believed Magnus was pureblood because of his magical talent. The part about him being the inheritor of King Arthur too was guessed to be a blessing of Merlin.
"Do you know about your ancestor Merlin studying under Salazar Slytherin?" Lucius asked.
"Yes, I know that. He must have learned a great deal from Salazar Slytherin, to be able to rise to become such a famous wizard," Magnus replied by overemphasising on Salazar, wanting to see where Lucius was getting to.
Lucius smiled, "Yes, that is indeed the case. If it weren't for Salazar Slytherin, Merlin would have never been able to rise to heights. Salazar Slytherin was a great wizard with unimaginable power. But, sadly, his future generations all died. There are no descendants remaining, all except one, the true heir to Salazar Slytherin."
Magnus acted shocked, "Who is he?"
"A great man, who believes in us, the purest of blood. Under his command, the wizardkind will see a new era, where we rule all." Lucius dreamily explained.
He then finally announced the name, "His name is, LORD VOLDEMORT!..."
Magnus quickly put two and two together. ~So that dark wizard is after me? His followers are killing people?~
"Does Lord Voldemort wish for the service of an 11-year-old child?" Magnus asked.
"Haha, no-no. He is very wise and caring, he does not want you to do anything. He only wants you to study and get stronger, but, to show allegiance you will have to get a tattoo on your arm." Lucius said.
Magnus nodded. Lucius was already gloating inside his heart, thinking it was mission successful.
"What do you know about my family history?" Magnus asked suddenly.
Lucius was confused, "Of course, they must be respected pure-blood wizards, to be related to Merlin, you must have a long-long history."
Lucius was speaking nonsense now. He was not able to find out about any magical family related to Magnus. So he guessed that it must be some secret family.
Magnus shook his head, "Hah, no. you are wrong, my family are actually muggles. I am the first wizard in the family."
"AND... to the offer of Lord Voldemort... I REFUSE!..." He announced.
Nearly everyone present there stopped talking. Many had their eyes widened at the revelation. Especially Narcissa and Malfoy. The atmosphere tensed a lot, feeling as if an explosion would happen at any moment.
Lucius gritted his teeth so loud everyone could hear them, he was not a person to get angry so easily but right now, he felt betrayed, deceived, he even treated Magnus so well after what happened on the train, he lowered himself just to have a good image in front of him, but now, it was not necessary.
Narcissa, on the other hand, looked at Magnus in... pity?
Lucius got up from his chair, his worst guesses had turned true, "YOU FILTHY MUDBLOOD!... Deceiving US?... using US?... STAND UP!... SIT ON THE FLOOR! That is your rightful place. That is your worth, right on the filth."
Magnus did get up, with a calm and plain face, but his blue eyes now looked dark red. His chin held high in pride and confidence. He had already decided before coming to Hogwarts that he was not going to let someone bully him.
"So you got deceived by a filthy mudblood? What does that make you, a person with intelligence even lesser than a filthy mudblood? Ah, you are Ultra Filthy Pureblood then." Magnus talked back in a chilling voice.
"SHUT UP! MUDBLOOD!..."
*WOOSH*
Lucius had taken out his wand and its pointy tip was touching Magnus' head.
"DO IT!" Magnus voiced with a smile.
Just then, Lucius felt something, he looked down, there was Magnus' wand and its tip was touching his crotch.
His eyes flickered in a slight panic. He turned back to Magnus, "You wouldn't dare, MUDBLOOD!"
*Sigh*
"Do you know we all have the same DNA? We are all humans of the same species, called Homo Sapiens. Ah, what am I even asking? Your primitive Chimpanzee brain cannot comprehend such complex concepts.
"I recommend you do it. Blow my head out, but I promise you, you will not be able to make little Malfoys with sweet sister Narcissa then. Malfoy family patriarch wouldn't want that, right?" Magnus mocked him, loud and clear, in front of all.
In his short time here, Magnus had learned one thing about Slytherin. That it was the law of jungle. The strongest rules all, now it was Lucius. But Magnus needed some followers too. Even 1 or 2 would be enough.
"I will kill you." Lucius was still enraged.
Magnus smiled, "DO IT!... but know one thing, you will be killing the last descendant of Merlin. The whole Magical world will be after your blood then. Not just yours, but your whole family. We've even got enough witnesses."
It was a stalemate now. Magnus was getting tired of it. Lucius most likely didn't have the guts to do anything. He could only scare people.
*BAM*
~Thanks dad,~
Magnus kicked. A perfect army-style kick to the knees of Lucius from the side, making him fall to his knees. Next, like a dragon putting his claws on his neck, Lucius saw Magnus grabbing his throat. His grip was inhumanly strong and his eyes looked chilly.
*COUGH*
"Before coming to this school, I was not playing in the sandbox in the park. I was learning, reading, and by reading, I knew there would be bigots like you. Lucius Malfoy, what should I do to you now? Should I end it?" He was, of course, bluffing, he couldn't kill someone like that. Also, he had never killed anyone and didn't want to do it at such a young age.
What he wanted was for Lucius to surrender. Lucius was shivering, as he couldn't breathe properly.
"Surrender, Lucius Malfoy," Magnus advised.
It was a huge humiliation for Lucius. He couldn't let this end here or he'd turn into a laughing stock for entire magical Britain. He was a 7th year, an adult wizard, after all, losing to a 1st year was out of options.
"N-NEVER!... MU-DBL-LOOD!... CONFRINGO!..." Lucius instantly aimed his wand at Magnus and a bright yellow light came out of its tip, straight towards Magnus's head.
*BOOOM...*

KIDNEY STONES PLEASE
Many held their breath as the bright yellow light came out of the tip of Lucius's wand, headed straight to Magnus' head. It all happened so fast, yet time seemed to have gotten slow.
Snape and Ragnar had gone to the dorm room so they weren't there to react. But they were halfway to the common room when they heard the commotion going on. But when they arrived, they were already too late.
"CONFRINGO..."
"NOOOOOOO..." Narcissa was seen shouting as she knew the consequences of this.
All looked in horror. Already knowing what would happen to Magnus' head now, it would be turned into a pulp. And they immediately felt dread, because all this was happening inside the common room of their house.
Magnus was not dumb, he was already expecting the zealot to act like one. He was too into the whole pureblood theory that he truly believed he was superior to other people.
Magnus had his wand in his other hand, just waiting to counter. But what had shocked Magnus a little was that he had not expected Lucius would hit to actually kill him. He was only expecting some small retaliation.
~Does he not love his life?~
Magnus used his wand to counter the attack with all his might. He cast a counter to the Blasting curse. The counter was nothing but to use another blasting curse to neutralise the incoming attack.
"Confringo..." He muttered immediately and countered the attack.
The two spells touched each other and there was a small high-intensity tug of war between them, but it was eventually fading away.
*CRACK*
"Oops..." Magnus exclaimed as he noticed a crack on his wand. He prayed that it would hold on till the end of this incident.
*BOOM*
The two spells stopped each other with a bang. But, the loud boom was actually from Magnus' wand. It was in pieces now and he had fallen back due to the blast.
Lucius stayed kneeling on the ground, now silent and a bit shocked that his magic was stopped by Magnus. He again tried to lift his wand but realised something.
He wasn't able to lift his arm, he couldn't even feel it. He started hyperventilating a bit.
Magnus looked at Lucius, "Huh, so I broke your arm? Sorry about that, but I didn't expect that you would try to KILL ME."
Then he looked around and said, "Now, if someone were to ask, can I expect that everyone will be truthful here?"
Everyone there understood what he meant and they nodded their heads nervously.
"MAGNUS, are you okay?" Ragnar ran up to him.
"Yeah, I'm fine, but can't say the same about my wand... huh, it was incompatible with me anyway," he muttered.
Lucius's eyes widened when he heard that, ~He could have killed me if he had a good wand?~
"Severus, can you call Professor Slughorn? He's the head of Slytherin after all." Magnus requested. Nodding to him, Snape left the hall.
"YOU MUDBL..."
"Stop it, Lucius. We need to get you to the infirmary, what if the damage becomes permanent." Narcissa suddenly voiced, indirectly trying to save his skin now.
Lucius stopped blurting and nodded to his girlfriend. She helped him get up with a few loyal followers of Lucius. She looked at Magnus while going away and felt conflicted. She knew what happened today had totally destroyed the face Lucius had in front of him. Now she feared that if the Dark Lord didn't win, the Malfoy family was done for.
"What happened?" Ragnar asked him.
"He found my heritage and called me mudblood. Magical society really needs a makeover, people are openly supporting dark lords and murderers." He replied.
"Wait... which dark lord?" Ragnar inquired.
"Voldemort or something," Magnus said, but, for some reason, Ragnar's face stiffened hearing that, though he did not say anything.
"WHAT HAPPENED HERE?" Slughorn quickly came to the common room. He saw the destroyed furniture and Magnus' wand.
Everyone was looking at Magnus so he immediately asked, "What happened here, Mr Pendragon?"
"Racism, that's whats happened. Lucius Malfoy tried to recruit me into the army of a Dark Lord named Voldemort. I refused and told him I belong to a muggle family. He called me Mudblood and blasted a Confringo straight towards my face. Thankfully, I was able to save myself, but my wand got destroyed in the process. You might want to take the testimony of all around us and also check the record on Lucius' wand." He immediately clarified.
Hearing this, Slughorn was quite horrified. Racism, illegal activity and mortally endangering someone. These were taboo in Hogwarts. He also felt very bad hearing the name of the dark lord.
"Rest assured, Mr Pendragon, we will get to the bottom of this. Where is Mr Malfoy?" Slughorn asked.
"In the Infirmary, his own magic ended up breaking his arm." Magnus shruggingly said, as if beating the 7th year while being in 1st year was no big deal to him.
Magnus looked around himself, at the various half-blood Slytherin or just those who were from pureblood families who didn't align themselves with pure blood theory. On the other hand, Muggleborn wizards were extremely rare in Slytherin, and at the moment, only Magnus was one.
Magnus saw adoration in many eyes. He internally smiled, ~Mission successful.~
It was good that most students were already in their dorms at this point so the words didn't spread as fast. Dumbledore, of course, took this matter very seriously, he was in fact, notified about magic being used in the Slytherin Dungeon and he was already on his way.
When he heard everything from Slughorn, they headed to the infirmary. There, he saw Madam Pomfrey fixing Lucius' arm.
"It's nothing too serious. Just the joints are broken, I'll fix them in a jiffy, but it will hurt." She evaluated.
Lucius gritted his teeth, "That Mudblood... how dare he... we thought he was pure... like us..."
"10 Points taken from Slytherin for using foul language in the school." Dumbledore walked in.
Lucius turned to Dumbledore with a face full of contempt for him. But, he decided to stay quiet.
"Mr Malfoy, I need you to surrender your wand. You are a suspect in a violent crime that took place in the Slytherin Common room. All testimonies have been recorded and it has been ascertained that you are the aggressor." Dumbledore demanded.
"I am Lucius Malfoy, heir of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Malfoy. You can not do this with me, not for a mere muggle-born." He argued and refused to give his wand.
Dumbledore shook his head in annoyance, "That was not a request, Mr Malfoy. Also, let me remind you, the one you attacked belongs to the most respected and ancient family in the country. He is both, an Emrys and a Pendragon."
"Hah, we don't know that. There is no proof except that talking hat's words." Lucius countered.
"The proof will arrive soon too. Now, handover your wand. The Aurors will be coming here soon." Dumbledore again requested.
But, seeing Lucius not moving, Dumbledore just waved his own hand and the wand from Lucius' pocket flew to him.
"You will get this back once the Aurors have determined its history." Dumbledore didn't stay anymore and turned around to leave.
But Lucius was raging behind him. "MY FATHER WILL HEAR ABOUT THIS..."
Lucius turned to Narcissa, "Contact my father and tell him to come here and meet me. Also, give me your wand, I must let the master know about this. That mudblood dared to go against him."
Without questioning, Narcissa did as asked.
...
Slytherin Common Room,
Magnus was told to not go out of there and also to not touch his broken wand. So, he just took a seat by the fireplace and played chess with his friends.
"You are really the best in Charms. Seriously, defeating a 7th year who surprise attacked you." Ragnar commented.
Magnus proudly laughed, "Haha, that is why I tell you two, focusing on charms is also necessary. Because Potions will not win you duels"
"Do you think Lucius will be suspended?" Severus asked.
*Sigh*
"Likely not. His family is powerful, he might get some punishment but considering he is nearly done with his school, they won't suspend him. But, I will make sure the world knows about this." Magnus smilingly said.
"Man, you are seriously more Slytherin than anyone else." Ragnar distastefully said.
"No, I am just smart. Slytherins are egoistical backstabbers, according to the hat." Magnus argued.
Eventually, an Auror arrived at the school and started investigating what had happened. It was a man with a weird looking one eye. He seemed to be a paranoid man, judging by how he was looking at everyone as if they had committed a mortal sin against him.
He came to Magnus, "I am from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, Auror Alastor Moody. You the Merlin kid?"
"No, you are mistaken," Magnus replied.
Moody turned to Ragnar, who he already ascertained was not the kid he was looking for because of how thin Ragnar was. "Where is he? Call him, I need his statement."
Ragnar awkwardly pointed to Magnus, "He's the one."
Moody scrutinizingly looked back at Magnus, "Why did you lie kid?"
"I don't remember being registered as "Merlin kid" in the school registers. The human species uses names for a reason, how would you feel if I called you Owl Head?" Magnus argued.
Moody stared at him in the eyes for a few minutes, then suddenly laughed, "HAHAHA... good, good... you got some spine, boy."
