[So, what the plan, you gonna play the righteous hero and demand the dark diary from the shady-looking gentleman cum side villain or gonna play the assassin, you know old school stabby Stabby in Backy backy,] Merlin asks as if this was all a game to him.
'I will play the patient kind, he is here to get rid of the Diary anyway, so I'll just let him.
[Sigh] Merlin just rolled his eyes and groaned, man seriously needed action in his life, but why make me the object of his entertainment,
I by randon took out a book from the shelf and pretended to read it, while also secretly following Malfoy Senior. But after noticing that the man was moving dangerously close to one lustrous entity which graced us with his presence, I just groaned.
I was trying to avoid Gilderoy Lockhart, I believe that there is no reason needed for me to explain to the readers right?
The man was a total fraud, the only thing which he had really going for him was his talent in building lies and memory charms, not to mention, that the man did look handsome. Not a lot but still better than most adult wizards, in fact in the movies he was not as handsome.
I hate handsome men more than I love beautiful women, being a pretty average guy in my last life, this was always a sore spot for me, this and my little friends who were, well a little too little for my liking.
Merlin on the sideline just wanted to point out that in this life, Orion might be the most handsome man as time goes, not only because of his natural good look but because he absorb a freaking unicorn, it is taking some time for him to adapts to the traits of a Unicorn but when he will, girls can hardly remove eyes from him.
And when it comes to his PP, Merlin had no idea but only future will tell, just how magical that can be.
I followed Lucious for 20 minutes and the man was one savvy customer, just looking around and wasting my time, I am sure that he didn't notice my presence so I don't know why he was taking so much time to just throw the book away.
[Probably because he just doesn't want to throw it away, he wants to send the book to Hogwarts, maybe in the book and movies it was not clear why gave the book to Ginny but there is a possibility that it was a planned action,] Merlin said from inside my ear like a whisper and my fast thinking already started to catch up with all the possible routes this scenario can go.
"Son of a bitch," I couldn't help but mutter to myself, and with that started planning. Didn't take me long to find a simple method to take the diary, gonna use force to mix the diary with many of the similar-looking books and diaries on the bookshelf towards the south section of the store, just needed to lure him to that place.
[Use this spell... Always worked for me] Merlin said while transferring the spell information into my head directly.
I blink and look a little confused, the spell works on someone's smell, how is that gonna help me, but before Merlin can answer, I suddenly understand what Merlin was trying to do here
I then went towards the south section of the store and hurriedly put two basic runes in the floor to stop Lucious from using Accio to find the book, yes now I don't even need a wand to place the runic array as I am proficient enough to do that by just placing my magic signature there, but this new spell Merlin taught me was a different case.
Targeting Lucious I said, "odoris mutatio," and then almost an invisible spacial fluctuation happened, only targeting Malfoy.

-Lucius Malfoy Pov-
Lucius Malfoy was having a bad day, the ministry just recently raided many of the pure blood houses to find any kind of dark artefact among them. He was still now excluded from this list, an advantage of holding significant power but for how long?
Thus he was trying his damnest to clear out all of his inventory and backlogs. The search was not just limited to dark items but also all kinds of illegal things and connections by the ministry.
Lucius now missed that day when he used to work with Voldemort, yes the man was deranged and a madman who only looked for himself, but he was strong and that apparently was all that mattered in this world.
"Well, not strong enough," Lucius mutters silently, thinking about how the greatest dark lord of all time died under the hands of a newborn child.
He couldn't help but scoff at the underdeveloped brain circuits of wizards nowadays, every one of them is nothing but sheep, and Dumbledore is the biggest ringmaster. Others might not realize but dark eaters do, a positive side of following the dark lord, he saw the reality of Dumbledore.
In Lucius' eyes, Dumbledore was nothing less than a dark lord. But he was not here today to debate about someone's morale or character, his own moral compass was all wack-shit so no, he was here today to make sure that his diary which his lord gave him.
"That half-blood is no lord of mine, but I can't do anything against him, weakness is the original sin," Lucius just sighed. He knew the reality behind the supposed lord and the messiah of the pure-blood people, that half-blood bastard was a psychopath and a sociopath who killed his own family, but Lucius would not tell this to anyone, he couldn't even let anyone get the suspicion that he knows this, he know that the dark lord is not dead and will eventually come back, no he will stay in the dark and follow the dark lord.
In light, he can't achieve anything, although he doesn't comply with the dark lord he gets benefits by following him, and that's all that is needed.
Lucius today was here because he wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of the cursed item and at the same time, cause trouble for those blood traitors Weasleys. So he waited until those damned red-hair-blood traitors comes, he knew that it will be today that they will arrive considering that Ministry give the salary to its employees yesterday, Arthur need that money to bring anything to his kids.
"Beggars," Lucius scoffed in disdain but then suddenly smelled an alluring smell coming from the bookshelf on the south, it attracted his attention, the smell was really something which made his tense-up mind relax. So he went there, just to figure out what that thing was.

-MC POV-
The moment when Lucius went close to the south section of the store, he found the pleasant smell intensified as he got close to the bookshelf.
[Got Him] Merlin smirked alongside me as I raised my hands and suddenly the entire blood bookshelf shooked, I already made the footing of the shelf lose with magic and now just need a little bit of force (pun intended) to complete throw the fucking bookshelf on Lucius.
Suddenly the entire bookshelf looked like it was alive, or like an earthquake hit Diagon Alley. It shook and Lucius who was still in euphoria bought out of his daze and took out his wand, due to years of reflexes kicking in.
But that was pointless as until his mind really figured out what was going on, it was too late, the entire bookshelf ended up falling on the poor bastard.
I with one hand tilde the bookshelf with force while on the other hand, using the force to drag Tom Riddles's Diary towards me.
Lucius didn't even notice that he lost the diary. I saw the diary come towards me like a lightsaber or Thor's hammer, directly into my hand, and I didn't waste any time and put it inside my pendant.
[Score, now get the fuck out of his place] Merlin said and I just nodded while already moving out.
[By the way, why the rune when you were gonna put the Diary directly on your pendant ?] Merlin asked in confusion.
Because if the magic worked and he still didn't get the Diary, then he would get suspicious. It's better to make him believe that the magic is not working for some reason and that the Diary is among the piles of books and other Diaries, that way he will be occupied and most likely not suspect that it was intentional.
