{St. Mary's Orphanage, London}
{23rd June 1991}
"Rigel, you are here. What are you doing there, come on in!" The old matron spoke, her voice was surprisingly soft as she gave Rigel a small smile.
Minerva was stunned as she turned around to look at Rigel, the name and the face were like a blast from the past. A small pang went through her chest as she looked at the familiar visage. The night she got the news about Sirius's betrayal still haunts her, and looking at the same jawline, the eyes, and the hair was a bit disorienting.
Suppressing her emotions she looked as Rigel walked into the room and closed the door behind him. Rigel sneaked a couple of glances at Minerva to see her gaze already locked on him, and now that the sexual thoughts were at the back of his mind, Rigel was aware of another change.
Minerva was practically glowing to his senses, not visually, but her presence was accompanied by a strong light that he couldn't really describe. He had felt it before when he woke up, the strong current of energy flowing in his body. But it was nothing compared to the bright star that was Prof. McGonagall.
"Good Morning...?" Rigel asked searchingly.
'He's quick on the uptake...' Minerva thought as she stood up and took a couple of steps toward Rigel.
"You can call me Prof. McGonagall, I'm a teacher at a college called Hogwarts. We are a very exclusive institute that caters to some gifted individuals in our society." Minerva spoke, and she proceeded to give him all the information fluently.
"I see..." Rigel muttered, he glanced at the Matron but she seemed totally out of it staring into vacant space.
"You don't have to worry, I have already taken your Matron's permission. We would be going on a field trip where I could tell you more about Hogwarts." Minerva smiled... or at least she tried to, it came out a bit forced.
Rigel was honestly a little creeped out when he saw the Matron's expression, but he knew that McGonagall was from the good side so he nodded as a satisfied expression lingered on Minerva's face.
"Good, we should hurry. I'm assuming it won't be a problem?" Minerva questioned as she turned to the matron, her wand discreetly flicked into her right hand as she waved it in a circle slowly.
"O-of Course, It's not a problem," the matron hastily replied, she turned to look at Rigel and her vacant stare softened a little.
"You take care out there young man, I always told you that good opportunities would come to those who are prepared. Now go, you can take your things later if you want."
With permission 'acquired', Minerva walked toward the door and Rigel followed her.
'He's quiet and observant...another Ravenclaw?' Minerva thought, from the way the matron talked about him, she knew that he was quite studious and hardworking. She was feeling an uncomfortable emotion as she thought about Rigel in a different house. She didn't know why she was feeling like this, Sirius had been a pain in her arse all through his 7 years in Hogwarts. And even today she hadn't recovered from losing 3 of her favorite Lions.
Now not only Harry would be coming back, but Rigel would too. And was he even Sirius's son? The age would make sense but would Sirius abandon his child after his crappy childhood?
'But who even was he, a spy and a death eater...' Minerva's mask collapsed as she bristled silently, the deception and the betrayal still hurt but she quickly collected her feelings as they arrived at the Orphanage gates.
"Follow me, Mr. Black," Minerva ordered. Her tone came out a bit harsh but Rigel paid it no mind, his attention though did shift to her name that flashed to orange for a brief moment.
The two of them walked into a nearby alley, Rigel gave Minerva a questioning look to which she responded with, "Please grab my hand tightly Mr. Black, and don't let go under any circumstance."
Rigel nodded as he grabbed her extended hand and waited to be whisked away to Diagon Alley. Minerva on the other hand gave his happy-go-luck attitude with a puzzled expression as she frowned.
'Trusting and Hardworking... a Black in Hufflepuff?'

...
"...Cough~" Rigel coughed as he gathered himself, his stomach was doing splits as he grabbed onto the nearby wall in order to gather himself. The sensations of side along apparition were too sudden.
Maybe if he hadn't been so engrossed in feeling the soft skin of Prof. McGonagall's hand he would have been more prepared. He felt like was stretched in all directions and then flung across the sky like a boomerang.
"Cough Cough~" He coughed a couple more times before his stomach calmed down, thankfully, he hadn't vomited so he could maintain whatever dignity he was left with.
"Where are we?" His voice came out a little weak as he turned to look at Prof. McGonagall with watery eyes.
"We are before the entrance to Diagon Alley, the entrance to the magical shopping district of Britain," Minerva spoke as she patiently waited for Rigel to gather himself. Normally when she introduces someone to the magical world, they were most likely muggleborns.
Since most Half-bloods had one magical parent who most likely still keeps in touch with the wizarding world, no half-bloods ever needed to go through an orientation. Since most muggle-born have parents accompanying them, she doesn't use side-along apparitions to introduce them to magic.
Trying to explain to Rigel what magic was in the middle of the street wasn't a good idea, so she thought about the second-best way. Looking into his eyes, he was calmly processing the information she had told him... or maybe he was too dumb to catch it?
'Who the fuck does that, I knew what apportion was and I was ready for it. But what about some other poor Muggle-born? This is a weird way to introduce someone to the magical world.' Rigel thought. He couldn't tell what was wrong but he could sense a little bit of hostility from Prof. McGonagall.
Her green name was alternating between green and orange which was an obvious sign of her internal struggle. Now a bit on guard at an alien Prof. McGonagall he turned around to look at the place they had apparated to. They were in a small alley with brick walls on both sides, there was a door behind Prof. McGonagall and a solid wall on the other side.
"Did you say Magic?" Rigel asked. He still needed to pay the part of a clueless muggle-born for now.
"Of course, Hogwarts is one of the oldest schools in Britain that focuses on teaching young wizards and witches the magical arts. I personally teach the art of transfiguration, which is the magical branch of transforming the very nature of everything. Like this-" Minerva spoke before she flicked her wand at the dirt.
The dirt gathered together and in half a second transformed into several butterflies that floated around the two of them. For a moment Rigel let go of his reservations as he looked around, light danced across his new sense as he could sense the magic flowing through Minerva's wand before it danced along the butterflies now floating around him.
He gave into his senses and closed his eyes, he could feel the colors wobble all around him, the walls were stained with a dull blue color while the butterflies were dancing shades of green.
'What's going on...'

-------------------------------------
AN - For those of you guys who came for the smut, can you please wait for a little while longer before you remove this story from the collection, I promise it's coming!
{The Leaky Cauldron, Diagon Alley, London}
{23rd June 1991}
Rigel stared at the Hogwarts letter. The parchment of the envelope was yellow and old-looking but the paper had a more authentic feel. At first, he thought that Prof. McGonagall was going to take him into the wizarding world but she instead dragged him through the door into the Leaky Cauldron.
Just as described the entire establishment was backward-looking. With lanterns floating along the wooden pillars, there was much more to the building than Rigel expected. It was his new sense, which he began calling 'mana sense' in his mind that gave a clearer picture.
All the walls were covered with magic, it was blinding Rigel so he was a little dazed as he stared at his letter at the moment. Minerva frowned as she stared at Rigel, he looked a little dazed but she attributed his silence to the fact that he was seeing written proof of his surname for the first time.
She forgot her initial negative perception of Rigel as a wave of sympathy for him appeared in her heart.
'He's not Sirius's son, he's just like any other muggle born that had lived the past 18 years in a muggle orphanage.' Minerva thought, looking at Rigel's dazed look again, she tried to dissuade any worries that he might have.
"This letter is written by a quill that is charmed to write admissions letters according to Hogwarts Registery. Hogwarts Registry works as a large scouting net that covers the whole of Britain. Any witch and wizard that had considerable magic at birth would be registered into the Registry. Your name is Rigel Black, at least that was the name given to you at birth, there was no mention of your birth by the House Black which is why your arrival is a surprise to the community. If you look at the papers do not be concerned if you see any negative articles about yourself...." Minerva warned as she then mumbled something along the lines of 'Rita Skeeter'.
Rigel was a bit startled at her sudden tirade as his attention shifted from the Leaky Cauldron to her. He focused on muting his new sense and after a moment the interference he could sense from all around him slowly muted. As a reward for manipulating his new sense, a notification appeared in front of him.
...
[Skill 'Archaic Mana Sense' leveled up to level 2]
...
'Huh, I guess that makes sense, I figured I was missing some skills.' Rigel thought he was a bit paranoid about the most busted spell and its two abusers in Hogwarts.
'Skills?' Rigel thought and a new panel appeared in front of him. Not wanting Prof. McGonagall to suspect him, he also started to open the letter as he read through the new panel.
...
[Skills:]
[Gamer's Body lv Max{-}: Perceive the changes in your body in the form of a quantified list. Your body can grow stronger by adding points to various stats but isn't immune to damage and the regenerative properties depend on Physical stats.]

...
[Archaic Mana Sense Lv 2 {1/20}: Your high affinity with Mana makes it easier to perceive Mana all around you.

...
Rigel carefully read through the list, although he was confused because the ParsleTongue and Metamorphmagus were somehow blocked. But a quick search through his memories gave him an idea of how that might be happening.
'Still, both these bloodline abilities are quite good, I wonder why Mana sense was not affected by the locket as well.' Rigel thought as he opened the Hogwarts letter.

On the back side of the acceptance letter was a rather expansive list of books and supplies he needed, he read through the list for a moment and then he turned to Prof. McGonagall.
"I'm assuming since there is a House Black then I would have some family members?" Rigel asked, he frowned as he thought about his predicament. Since he should be the heir to two of the Pureblood houses, no way would someone like Malfoy or other pureblood members of the Pureblood society allow him to safely integrate into the magical world.
'This is going to be trouble isn't it.' Rigel thought.
"You do have some family remaining, though they are of questionable origin," Minerva muttered as she frowned. Ever since it was leaked by Lucinda that a new heir to the House of Black is alive, the battle for his magical guardianship has started. Headmaster Dumbledore had put a stop to it for now since Rigel was a Hogwarts student, but she knew the battle would soon start as soon as Rigel came into contact with the magical world.
With bias clear in her tone, she explained, "You have only 2 direct family members alive. You have Sirius who is in Azkaban for life..." The venom was practically dripping from Prof. McGonagall's mouth at Sirius's name. "...and Arcturus Black, but he has retired from the politics scene, and his whereabouts are unknown."
"You have several cousins, one of whom is currently attending Hogwarts, and one who would go to Hogwarts in the same year as you. But the Malfoy's have a unique view of the Muggles and Muggleborns..." Minerva spoke.
Rigel nodded at her, his thoughts went back to Arcturus Black, he was a frequently used character in the fanfictions but he hadn't appeared in the canon timeline. His thoughts though shifted toward his own power once again.
'The skills that I have like Metamorphmagus and Mana sense are part of the main gamer system and the Domination system was a part of a sub-system right?' Rigel thought as he pulled up the screen for the Domination sub-system again. His eyes drifted to the skill Requirement Appraisal that came with the Domination subsystem.
'It is not packaged together with the system so that means it works in an entirely different dimension.' Rigel thought, he looked at Minerva's E-cup bust and used the skill on her while making sure to look at her reactions for any indication that she was aware of what he was doing.
"...are completely against Muggleborn integration into our world. The Malfoy's lead the conservative faction and since a lot of them are a part of Hogwarts governors board, they have direct access to the amount of debt that most Muggleborn accumulate going through their Hogwarts tuition."
'Wait... wasn't the Hogwarts education free?' Rigel thought, but that particular popup was put on the back burner as he stared at the new notification panel that was in front of him.
...
'Those are some steep requirements to Dominate her...' Rigel thought as he looked down and frowned.

AN - LEWD Requirement reveal and a hint of a Lewder Magical world in the next chapter. I don't want to completely destroy the original world with sex, so most of the changes will be subtle and related to debts and slavery. Sorry if that turns you off!
P.S- Someone suggested I use AI to create images of characters and let me tell you, I went into a rabbit hole. There is so much you can do that I got lost in there for a bit. Unfortunately my graphics card is limiting me from truly exploiting that, but I should be able to get some decent images out this week. Everyone is welcome to try though, comment your image of Prof. McGonagall here, and let everyone judge!
