Chapter 148: 148. Regulus Black

"What took you so long?" Magnus asked, looking back at Ragnar who had just arrived.

Ragnar shook his head, "Nothing."

But Magnus was not dumb enough to not understand what had happened. There was a reason why he ran into the wall first, so he could give Ragnar some personal time.

He left his luggage and went to Ragnar, putting his hand on his shoulder, "Well, I'm not stupid, brother of mine."

Ragnar looked at his face and chuckled, "Thank you for clarifying that, my brother."

"WELL WELL... WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE? Did you two finally start dating?" James came out of the wall and saw them.

Magnus proudly turned to him, "No, we are now officially brothers."

"Yeah, aunt and uncle adopted me." Ragnar clarified.

James, although a douchebag, understood how important this must have been. He knew about Ragnar's past after all. He shook Ragnar's hand, "I'm happy for you,."

"What about you, James? What did you do during this break?" Magnus asked him as they walked towards the train.

"HEHE, I travelled to Egypt this time. Saw so many magical tombs." James said.

Magnus and Ragnar looked at him in disgust. Ragnar asked, "So you wasted your whole summer break having fun?"

"What? That's what summer breaks are for, to have fun." James stated.

Magnus facepalmed himself, "Hmm, don't say why I am better at Charms and quidditch than you later. I studied and practised"

"Huh, so you wasted your holidays on boring stuff. We're kids, Magnus. If you don't enjoy it now, you'll miss being young." James advised him.

Magnus would have surely agreed but only if he did not have a bunch of psychos trying to kill him.

*Sigh*

They proceeded to board the train. But in their way, mostly everyone would step aside, giving Magnus way. Then there was a lot of talking and finger-pointing at him.

~Is this what celebrities feel like? This is annoying.~ he muttered to himself.

He also noticed a few angry eyes, most likely the Pure-bloods.

The new Muggle-born first years had no idea though and were confused by this change in atmosphere on the platform.

Ignoring all, Magnus entered the carriage and found an empty cabin for himself. After a few minutes, the whole gang got together. Severus and Emma joined him. While Sirius, Remus and Peter joined James.

"Where is your Regulus? Shouldn't he be with you?" Magnus asked Sirius.

Sirius shook his head in disappointment, "He was sent with Narcissa because my family thought being with me would make him join Gryffindor."

"Don't worry, he will be in Slytherin most likely and this year I am not going to let anybody mess around there," Magnus assured him.

...

Their train ride was normal as always. Magnus had his packed lunch to eat, though it did not stop him from buying some more snacks from the trolly lady.

When they were halfway, Severus went to the bathroom, but when he returned, he had brought the red-haired Gryffindor girl, Lily. Magnus wondered if Severus even went to the bathroom. Being the best wingman he was, he made place.

"Come on in, you two. We have enough place." Magnus told them.

He made Emma and Ragnar slide to the side. But then, to his shock, Severus let Lily sit beside him and he sat on her other side. ~Wait... shouldn't he sit beside me?~

"Hey, Magnus." Lily greeted him.

Magnus did the same, but he looked into her eyes, and everything became clear to him. It was the same shine he had seen in Emma's eyes. Looking to his other side, he could see Emma glaring at Lily, as if she would jump on Lily and beat her at any moment.

~This is bad. Sev likes her, and I don't like anyone. Emma is a friend, but making Lily my friend would be accepting her feelings, and Sev might feel hurt.~ he talked to himself.

"Oh, we should change into robes. There are so many of us in the cabin after all." He said and got up.

"Yes, Mag, let's go." Emma got up as well.

Magnus stopped and stared at her dumbly, "You do know I'm going to change clothes?"

Realising what she did, her cheeks turned red and she sat back down. "I-I was..."

Ragnar patted her head, "Patience, my child. Patience."

Their whole journey was awkward after this. Lily tried to make small talk with him, while he tried to end the topic quickly or would bring others into it.

He knew she was a very talented potioneer but the last thing he wanted now was a complicated love triangle. Also, they were all too young. He expected that this infatuation of Emma and Lily would end someday. If it stays even after a few years, maybe he will think about it then.

*Train Whistle*

The train slowly aligned itself at the Hogsmeade station and stopped. Everyone started to deboard the train. All except 1st years headed to the Thestral carriages to arrive at the school. He always wondered what these carriages look like to those who couldn't see these beautiful creatures. As per the tradition, he gave the Thestral a treat and got on.

While the 1st years were taken by boat. Hagrid was as energetic as ever.

The great hall was as full as always. They were not allowed to go to their dorms first and instead were told to head to the hall. A sorting ceremony would happen there.

Magnus knew that this was an important year for him because all the 1st years were just 1 year younger than him. This means that if he is able to influence a maximum number of them, then he'd have a lot of followers. He didn't need crazy followers like Death Eaters, what he wanted were people who would come forward to help others when needed and will generally be law-abiding people. He didn't need many fighters.

Professor McGonagall as always brought the 1st years and started letting the talking hat sort them one by one. There weren't that many Slytherin this year it seemed.

Eventually, Regulus arrived at the stool. The talking hat just touched his head and it screamed "SLYTHERIN!"

Magnus was angry at the hat now, how could it know the fate of a child in a split second. ~I guess I need to have a good chat with it, or else, who knows how many Dark Lords it will push up.~

He clapped for Regulus. His and Regulus' eyes also met for a few seconds just then. But then he ran to sit beside Narcissa.

"Is he avoiding me?" Magnus wondered.

Ragnar agreed, "Of course he is, his parents probably scared the hell out of him so he stays away from you."

"But for how long? In the end, we live in the same dungeon." Severus added.

"Yes, no matter what, I know he's a good boy. A little timid and easy to manipulate but at heart he is good. I will help him, whether he befriends us or not." Magnus decided.

After the sorting was done, Dumbledore got up to give some warning. "The feast shall begin soon after. Before that, a word of advice from me, any student roaming after the night hours will be given detention, and visiting the Forbidden Forest is forbidden for all students. We had an incident last year, so beware."

He was looking at Sirius and his gang while saying this. Because they were the ones who had broken rules last year, not Magnus. He always had permission.

*CLAP CLAP*

"Enjoy the meal," Dumbledore sat down on his chair. Tasty food also appeared on their tables.

Magnus and Ragnar pounced on it to fill their stomachs.

"I can eat more than you, Rag, so no need to try so hard," Magnus claimed as he stuffed his mouth with roasted honey chicken.

Ragnar's mouth was stuffed like a chipmunk with his cheeks bloated. "Fufu... I fill fin..."

Severus slowly distanced himself from them, "I don't know you two."

...

After dinner, they all returned to the dorms. Where Magnus let Summer and Chad go free and play around in the dorm room.

Then he took out a bundle of small booklets from his luggage and headed back to the common hall.

"Hehe, I bet we can attract many of them with this." He muttered.

Ragnar and Severus followed him behind. They also held bundles of small booklets. The trio then arrived in the middle of the common room and stopped. Magnus took a stool and stood on top of it.

CREATORS' THOUGHTS

Chapter 149: 149. Big Brother Magnus

"HELLO, EVERYONE!" He started. All stopped talking and turned to hear him.

"All except 1st years know me, but for the new ones, I am Magnus Grant Emrys Pendragon. I have many other names that people call me by. I was the student of the year in the previous term and scored the maximum numbers in 1st-year exams.

"So, I have a gift for all the 1st year students. I can greatly help you this year. All of you will get my handwritten notes about things to remember, as well as many shortcuts for all subjects. With this, I hope that you feel less burdened by the studies and are easily able to grasp every topic. Together, this year too, we will win the house cup." He proclaimed by raising his fist in the air.

Many neutral older students also cheered with the prospect of winning the house cup again.

All the 1st years too felt very happy and welcomed. They each took a booklet from Magnus, which will guide them for each class of 1st year, all the way till the exam. There were even some tricks to score more in the exams.

But Regulus didn't come to take it. He was stopped by the Gang of Slytherin, which was now run by Narcissa, at the behest of now-graduated Lucius.

Magnus yawned loudly, "Well, it's late now. I will go to sleep. I'm leaving the remaining booklets here, if anybody hasn't gotten one, they can pick one. Goodnight."

"GOODNIGHT," all happy 1st years replied to him.

Satisfied, he went to his dorm room. But, when it was late at night, a sudden noise woke him up. He turned around and saw it was Summer. She was pecking on the window.

"What is it, Summer?" he asked. She continued to peck.

So he went ahead and opened it for her, and she then flew out. ~Probably needed to loosen up. Ah, I'm hungry now."

He went out of his dorm room to the common room, because some food was always there. But as he arrived there, he saw Regulus, taking the booklet he had left behind.

He chuckled and walked to him without making any noise. Once behind him, he lightly voiced, "BO!"

Regulus didn't shout but eeked. His heartbeat had risen too much. He quickly looked behind and saw a chuckling Magnus.

Finally taking a sigh of relief, he said, "Brother Magnus, why did you scare me like that. What if I had shouted?"

"I think I should be the one asking you questions. What's with you? Why are you ignoring me like that, ha?" He asked.

Regulus averted his eyes. "My... I was warned not to ever talk to you, if I did then mum would find out and make me stay at home, to be homeschooled."

Magnus sighed in sadness, how could parents be so cruel in their blind faith in one flawed theory?

He put his hand on Regulus' shoulder, "Don't worry, we can always speak secretly. Besides, I will soon take over the Slytherin House, so no bullying can happen. And, you don't need to worry, if you face any problem you can't solve, just tell me and I will make them go away. I'm your big brother, after all."

"Hehe, I'm just 1 year younger than you," Regulus said.

But Magnus ruffled his hair, "I'm taller than you, and also much stronger. Go to sleep now, if you find a problem in any subject except potions, you can ask me for help."

Regulus nodded and silently returned to his room. Magnus then went back to finding something to eat.

...

A week later,

Now, the days in Hogwarts for Magnus were slightly boring. Other than the more annoying potions classes and some random fans coming to him to talk, nothing much changed in his life.

He had seen the schedule and had to say, it was the most relaxing schedule. There were just 6 subjects, and each day there would only be 3 classes. Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays were off. He knew that this happens only in the 2nd year, because from the next year, he'll be needed to choose an optional subject. Then it will be a messy schedule all the way till the 5th year.

He already knew the theoretical things about all the subjects, through which he had already gathered 20 points for Slytherin. All he needed to do was practically demonstrate them in class. And honestly, when you were an expert in charms by blood, things like Curses didn't feel that hard. Even transfiguration was easy.

So there wasn't much to do. And Magnus decided to completely read Merlin's rune book on the evolution of magic. Only when he knows all about that he can become a master at making spells and using Runes.

"Is there any way to take away a Wizard's magic?" Magnus asked Merlin in the portrait.

"Who knows, maybe the one in your locket may know. I do not possess all of Merlin's memories." Portrait Merlin said.

At the same time, another Merlin's voice arrived in Magnus' mind. It was from the real Merlin, whose soul essence was in the bead locket.

"There is," the voice spoke to him. Magnus was on his bed so he closed his eyes and tried to see the same old grassland with the tree. And, soon he arrived there.

A small blob of light was hovering there, probably Merlin's essence.

"How?" Magnus asked him.

"In my time, magic was not regulated. Anybody could practice anything. This led to many of the dark Wizards performing various dark rituals.

"During that era, Arthur had left it to me to deal with problematic wizards in the kingdom. There were often Wizards who tried to do some rituals and got caught. Their crimes didn't deserve death, but letting them go would have been as good as doing nothing. So, I came up with a way of taking away someone's magic.

"I don't take it, it just returns to nature. The main point is to be stronger than your opponent. Because when you start releasing magic from their body, you will also be vulnerable.

"If you perform it on someone whose magic you miscalculated, it could be you who gets his magic dispelled. It's complex magic that requires a deep understanding of how the magic flows in our body.

"There was... One another way, however... Much more sinister. By doing this, you could not just take someone's magic, but also assimilate it into yourself. Morgan Le Fey did it, many times. It required cannibalism. How do you think she was able to fight me and Arthur to death?"

Magnus silently sat there and listened, "So I'm once again too young to learn this?"

"No, you can learn this, but I won't teach you. I don't want you to foolishly use it on someone stronger than you in magic and end up losing everything. I've seen you being reckless many times, you do not take your mother's warning seriously but let me tell you, your overconfidence will get you killed or worse, someone close to you killed." Merlin started scolding him. But he also sounded sad when he said the last part.

This Merlin was very different from the one outside in the portrait. This one was very serious and grumpy.

"Okay okay, old man. I will get stronger and then learn it. I'm going back to reading the book now." Magnus annoyedly grunted and returned to his normal mind.

Opening his eyes, he looked at the book in his hand, "Hehe, so what if he doesn't teach me. As long as I know how to make spells, I can do anything."

*Door Opens*

"Magnus, Professional Flitwick is looking for you. I think he got permission for the Duelling club." Ragnar entered the dorms and told him.

*BAM*

"Finally something interesting." Magnus slammed his book close and got up. He quickly went out to find the Charms professor with excitement.
