Chapter 108: 108. Magical Politician

After giving away the Dumbledore flavoured underwears like charity, he headed to his office in the basement of the teacher's housing building.

He cleaned the room first as he rarely used it and waited for Thomas Shelby to come.

*Knock Knock...*

"Come in..." Magnus voiced. But, although, he had hit puberty, his voice was still not sounding like a grown-up man.

The doorknob twisted and a smart-looking man entered. He was in much better shape now and finally looked like an uptight auror.

But, his eyes didn't have the same confidence as an auror. There was uncertainty, worry and also gratitude.

"Thank you for meeting me, your Majesty." He respectfully greeted with a light bow, knowing he was standing in front of a king.

"Welcome, take a seat. Professor told me you wanted to meet me. I have time." Magnus laid back in his seat.

Thomas took a seat and started, "I want to ask you for your help. I am grateful to you and my family is also safe, but they will come after me, no matter what. As l was a senior auror, they surely wouldn't want a loose end. I just... I don't care about myself, but I need your help with keeping my family safe. I can't even withdraw my money from the Gringotts vault as it is also connected with the ministry. I have nothing to help myself with."

Magnus understood his problem completely. He could understand his anxiety regarding his family.

~Hmm... Didn't I have those people calling themselves the Army of Merlin? What if a senior auror were to lead them... hehe... I'm a genius.~ Magnus gloated inside.

"Mr Shelby, what is your expertise?" Magnus asked.

"It's investigative and crime scene recreation magic," Thomas answered.

Magnus's eyes shined as if they were two shining marbles. His little cunning brain ran at full speed and came up with a very good plan. A plan that can make him some money.

"Are you good with Legilimency and Occlumency?" He asked.

Thomas nodded, "Yes, most Aurors get some training in this, but how good they are will always depend on their innate ability. I'm average, as an investigator, I needed to have these abilities."

Magnus smiled, "Good. Mr Thomas, how would you like to work for me? You may not know, but I own a few businesses in the Muggle world and they're all very successful. I have made millions of pounds in the previous year.

"I can help you with transferring your money to another personal vault of yours with no Ministry influence, I can also get you a new identity and a new home in the muggle world."

His offer sounded too sweet to be true. So Thomas asked, "What's the job?"

"What you used to do. You will head my Muggle private detective agency. Your job will be to secretly use magic without letting the muggles be aware and solve cases. Soon, we will get so famous that we'll get contracts from around the world. Until now, Wizards thought they were higher than non-magicals and that's why no Wizard understands that the muggle world is a gold mine. So, what do you think?" Magnus proposed.

"Will you really do all that?" He asked in disbelief.

"Of course... You will just have to screen a few people for the job though. Most of them are muggle-born or half-blood wizards bullied by Death Eaters. But, you must do everything possible to make sure they are not a spy sent by the enemy." Magnus told him.

Thomas thought for a few minutes first. But, in the end, he had no other way. And this was for the best too, not only was he getting safety but also a new identity, with a job.

"I accept, I will do it. Muggle cases can't be that hard to crack, right?" He muttered.

Magnus nodded profusely, "Yes yes, now, you will need a lawyer too to represent you in some situations or help you with a few laws. I own a stake in a law firm, it's run by a very good wizard friend of mine. It's called Tonks & Tonks. Contact them later. They will also give you a floor in their office building for the new office."

Being the professional person he was, Thomas immediately nodded and memorised everything Magnus said. It was a good thing that he knew a decent amount of Legilimency and Occlumency, he did not need to write stuff up.

"But, what will be the name of the detective agency?" Thomas asked.

Magnus quickly came up with one, "Ummm... Magic Eye Detective Agency, we can also call it MEDA." [A/N: Pronounced as May-Da]

Thomas chuckled, "Haha... Hiding in the plain sight..."

"Yes, and your name from now on will be Adrian Durand. Go to the law firm first, meet Ted Tonks there, he will give you the keys to your new home, then you will receive a letter from Gringotts via an Owl." Magnus instructed him.

Thomas quickly got up and lightly bowed, "I will go there immediately, thank you for everything, your majesty..."

He formally said his goodbye and left.

Also in the office, Magnus felt tired, "Ah... If I keep this speed up, even before I turn 18, I'd have ownership of so many businesses."

...

As Magnus headed to the Slytherin Dungeons, he bumped into Remus Lupin. He was in his school robes, implying he had just returned to the school.

Magnus asked, "Full moon?"

Remus silently nodded, "Yeah,"

"Go and meet your friends, they probably think you're dead or something," Magnus advised him and left while whistling with no care.

He came back to the dungeons, but, as soon as he entered he saw a group of Slytherin kids surrounding Lucius and listening to him. With no shame or fear, he also went ahead to listen to what the young Death Eater was saying.

As he got closer, he saw Ragnar also in the crowd, with a packet of snacks, munching on them while seeing everything as if it was a show.

He passed some, as Magnus asked him, "What's going on?"

"He's giving his sales pitch, of what a good pureblood should act like and why they are superior to normal wizards and muggles. *Crunch*" Ragnar answered.

Magnus then heard Lucius with focus.

"... They are taking away what rightfully belongs to us. We are a Slytherin, our founder didn't want them to enter the school either. We must do what he couldn't and create a wizarding society that is made by us and for us. I am not denying that these muggle-born wizards can't learn wizardry, I am just saying they should know their place.

"After we successfully create a new society, these muggle-born and blood-traitors will be shown their place. A new smaller school will be made to teach them, Hogwarts will only be for the purest of us. Currently, the Ministry wastes its money to pay the school fee of all students. Let me ask, whose money is it? It is our money that we give to the Ministry as tax..."

*Crunch*

*Crunch*

*Crunch*

Magnus and Ragnar started eating louder to divert the attention of Lucius from his speech. Soon, Lucius' face started to twitch in anger, he tried to ignore them at the start but soon he got angry.

"YOU CAN EAT SOMEWHERE ELSE..." he shouted.

Magnus shrugged his shoulder, "Do you own this castle now? I can stand anywhere I want. You move if you have a problem, also, just so you know, your ancestor once tried to woo the muggle queen, Queen Elizabeth I. He got rejected and cursed her so she could not ever find a suitable partner. Also, I know the bank statements of all ancient families, they combined paid less to no tax than compared to half-blood or muggle-born wizards. So, stop with your rambling, your family was and is still opportunistic and greedy.

"Don't listen to him you all, if you don't want to be tagged a terrorist by the ministry."

All the students started murmuring, only a few of the Slytherin gang got close and tried to push Magnus away.

As soon as Avery touched Magnus, Magnus found a blind spot for all the students so they could not see what had happened. He jumped back as if he was thrown away and fell on the floor. Then, he started crying on the floor in pain.

"AAAH... YOU HIT ME... How could you? Rag, call professor Slughorn and also send a letter to Daily Prophet and DMLE. The Purest of Royal Blood, the future king of Britain, was attacked and hurt. AAAA... My hand, I think it's broken." He cried on the ground, but, the thing was, he sucked at acting sometimes, and he was in fact trying hard to hold his laughter. The tears in his eyes were because he was holding that.

Avery panicked and stepped back, "W-WHAT? I-I didn't do anything, I just touched him..."

But, all the students didn't believe him and saw him with doubtful eyes. They had seen how hostile Lucius and his gang were towards Magnus and that affected their decision.

Lucius angrily stared at Magnus, Magnus did the same while still crying. Even though there was a lot of noise around them, Magnus and Lucius didn't hear anything.

It was as if they were talking with their eyes. Where Lucius was cursing him for making things up.

And Magnus was replying with, ~You thought only you can act? I can play this game all day.~

Magnus had achieved what he wanted to do. He had successfully discredited the small gathering of Lucius and also initiated doubts in everyone's minds. He had chosen his words carefully while he was falsely crying in pain.

The word "Purest of Royal Blood" was the most important part, as it conveyed that he was no different from any wizard in the Slytherin house, that his blood was pure too and yet he was being attacked just for a difference in thought.

Frustrated and unable to do anything, Lucius returned to his dorm room, and the crowd also dispersed with that.

*BAM*

Just then, Emma came to Magnus and lightly kicked his arm, "Stop with this act, it's so obvious."

Magnus chuckled, "Hehe, but it works."

"God, you are shameless..." She muttered and headed to the girl's dorm.

Magnus shook his head and got up while muttering, ~If I want to successfully make this country good for both wizards and muggles, I will have to become some kind of a magical politician. Where is Ragnar now...?~

He looked around but he was nowhere to be seen, just then, he raised something, ~God, did he really go to get Professor Slughorn? THAT FOOL!~

Chapter 109: 109. MEDA

Ragnar had really brought professor Slughorn, the man was still in his night robes and was sweating due to coming here running.

Magnus had to tell him that it was just another match of arm wrestling, nothing to fear. But Slughorn didn't believe him and thought he was shrugging the event due to some kind of pressure. In the end, he had to go to Madam Pomfrey to get a medical check-up and only then did Slughorn feel at ease. After all, for him, Magnus, the king of Britain, was his biggest investment.

Soon after, everybody returned to sleep. But Magnus was not asleep yet.

"Come on, man, you need to learn to see and understand my signals. Probably everyone there knew I was acting except you." Magnus was scolding Ragnar.

Ragnar sat on the bed with his legs folded as if he was going to commit seppuku at any moment. He had his head down in shame.

"SHAME..." Severus spoke in the background.

"SHAME..."

Magnus turned to Severus awkwardly, "What are you doing?"

"Shaming him for his stupid brain." He answered.

Hearing this, Ragnar got enraged, "Huh, says the guy who can't even brew Liquid luck."

"Says the guy who can't even cast a first-year charm perfectly..." Severus barked back.

And, this way, Magnus' scolding turned into a small brawl of words between the two.

"Hoooo..." Suddenly, Summer flew in from the vent that acted as a window for their dorm.

She quickly came to Magnus with pride. Beside her was another cute little owl. It was a male and he certainly had hots for Summer, it seems she knew how to use her beauty, but Magnus was not going to let them touch her.

"What is it, Summer?" He asked while petting her.

She first enjoyed the pats and then looked at the new grey owl. She nudged her head for him to get closer to Magnus. The new owl nervously walked towards him, vigilant for any kind of incoming attack.

"Hehe, it's okay, little one, I will not hurt you," Magnus said and put his hand forward. The owl simply checked it first and then started rubbing his head around it.

Magnus taking the cue, caressed him. "So, what do you want to show me?"

The cute little Owl lifted his left claw and put it on Magnus' palm. He noticed a small cylindrical metal box strapped there. He opened it and took out its contents.

It was a thin piece of paper, rolled to fit inside it. He unfolded it and started reading. He lightly read it.

"My Lord, I need some funds to organise a few meetings with students from the third year and above during Hogsmeade weekends. That mudblood has been a nuisance and spreading words in the common room is very hard due to him."

Magnus' face grew a big scary smile, "Hehe, jackpot."

He immediately took out a few treats from his bag and gave them to the new owl and Summer. Both of them happily enjoyed it. Then, he rolled the message back in the small box on the claw of the owl.

He looked at Chad and spoke, "You can understand me, pass my message to this new owl. Tell him that if his owner ever mistreats him, hurts him or does anything bad to him, he can always come to me to live."

Chad lazily walked to the new owl and started meowing. Soon, the small owl happily rubbed his head on Magnus and then flew out.

He then turned to Summe, picking her up in his arms. Then he turned to Ragnar and Severus, "Hehe, I guess our Summer is the most important member of Order of Merlin now. What a brave girl."

Chuckling, Ragnar also gave her some treats. Summer was so happy that her work was appreciated.

With this, their day came to an end. For the three of them, classes were not as interesting anymore as textbook knowledge was very easy to learn. What they wanted to do was become the best in their respective specialities and explore other magics to no limit. The sky was the limit to how good of a wizard you can become.

Ragnar wanted to study Potions and Runes, Severus wanted to study Potions and Spellmaking. Magnus, on the other hand, wanted to learn everything except potions with a major focus on Charms and Runes.

Magnus was slowly decrypting the Rune book of Merlin. It was an enigma, as he realised that it was not just about a single subject, but it was about spell creation, from the start to the finish. Because of this, the runes kept on changing and getting harder as he went further.

In the beginning, he read about how the first early humans, who had no language, still used to do magic. The answer was runes. Early cave dwellers also had a few wizards among them, they were treated like holy people.

These Wizards used magic with the help of drawing runes on objects, ground and walls. Because of a lack of human speech, most of these runes were intent-based.

For example, they had stones that would catch fire if the wizard wanted. Cave walls that would fall if an intruder enters.

Impersonating the Wizards, normal humans also started to paint their walls with whatever came into their mind. Of course, it was all non-magical but it ended up being the proof of our early ancestors in the form of petroglyphs, or engravings.

Magnus was interested in this magic and it was advised by Merlin in the book that he starts from the basic if he wants to be the master someday. So, he was learning the cave-dweller's magic at the moment. He was also teaching Ragnar whatever he could. Ragnar wasn't interested in spell creation as he sucked at charms, all he wanted to learn was to engrave objects with runes.

Magnus tiredly put the book to the side of his bed. He looked at the clock and it was 3 in the morning. Severus and Ragnar were also studying at their tables.

Magnus thought about what he studied, ~These early human rune language looks so similar to Goblin engraving and enchanting. Could it be that, unlike humans, they never forgot their root magic?~

*YAWN*

"Sev, Rag go to sleep. It's bad for kids to stay up so late." He jokingly advised.

"Sure, you should sleep now, me and Rag will watch over you, little dragon..." Severus replied sarcastically.

Ragnar laughed, "Pfft... Yeah, we will make sure no monster comes to eat you in your sleep, little dragon."

"Urgh... Goodnight." Magnus' joke became a loss for himself. He rolled his eyes and covered his head under the blanket and slept.

...

The next morning, while Magnus and his friends were attending classes, Thomas, now known as Adrian Durand, arrived at the law and consultancy firm, Tonks and Tonks. It was in a prime location in London because as a law firm, the image mattered a lot.

In terms of winning the cases, he had employed an old muggle-born wizard to help with cases where the lawyer felt they'd lose.

The wizard would do some secret investigations and gather some evidence otherwise impossible. This way, they would always win. But, Ted did purposefully lose some cases once in a while in order not to raise suspicions.

He now bossed over 20 Lawyers and 50 paralegals. He was the CEO of the firm and only handled the big deep-pocketed clients, though, in all honesty, nobody had a deeper pocket than Magnus, but he never charged Magnus because just by being beside Magnus for a day to help him, he makes more than what his whole company does in months.

Today, he was in his office, he had postponed a meeting because he received a message from Magnus via Summer. She even had her own little Birdhouse in his office. Most staff think she's his pet.

*Knock Knock*

"You may enter..." He spoke.

Soon, the door opened and a well suited tall muscular man entered.

But the moment the two saw each other, they were left speechless.

"Ted?"

"Tom?" [Short for Thomas.]

"It's Adrian now, but MERLIN'S BEARD... I thought you were dead or something after marrying Dromeda." Adrian exclaimed.

Ted got up and went forward to give a bear hug. "I would have if not for his majesty. Just when I was uncertain about my future, I got a letter with an opportunity... And I took it. Now, look around, my own law firm with my pockets filled with riches."

Adrian smiled, "Then we're in the same boat. The Ministry is compromised, my friend. They tried to silence me, Elsa and my daughter too. But, everything's fine now. Hopefully, we can keep this disguise long enough for the heat to die down."

Ted patted his shoulder and poured a drink for him, "Good to hear that, my friend. Thank god your family is fine too."

"Thanks to his majesty, actually. Anyway... So we're both together again, I guess heavens wanted this. Working for the king of Britain doesn't sound so bad." Adrian said with a chuckle.

"Haha... True... But, we're not officially his employees. We just run companies he owns or invested in. When I heard an ex-Auror would be coming, I already planned for everything. I got your new identity papers, both magical and muggle."

Then he passed on a small box, "These are the keys to your new home and the letter of acknowledgement for you to use the floor above. You're not getting the whole floor, just the left side of the building as you won't be having a lot of employees anyway.

"Now to the main stuff, I already got your first employee ready. I was using him to do some secret investigations on some cases. Now, besides you taking cases on your own, I will recommend some clients of mine to buy your services for their own cases. I will take 5 per cent of the money earned from those cases. Simple, professional and easy work."

*Whistle*

"You've got everything planned, it seems. But I'm going to have to scrutinise this new employee of mine. MEDA can't afford any spy in the ranks." Adrian decided.

"That's exactly what I expect from an ex-auror. Anyway, I got your first case ready. A man who wants a divorce but doesn't want to pay the alimony. He claims his wife cheated on him but the court needs hard evidence that she was cheating and he's not been living with her since he found out. He will come to meet you later today. He's a millionaire, so a big client. Trust me, To... Adrian, as long as you work well, there is a lot to achieve, good luck." Ted explained the details.

Adrian took the file and got to work. He said bye to his old Hogwarts housemate and went upstairs. There, he saw the big reception desk on the left as soon as he came out of the elevator.

There was a woman there, behind her on the wall, the name of the company was written in bold. "MEDA"

This was going to be what the company will be publicly known as.

~*Sigh* Let's get to it.~
