บท 41: Knockturn Alley

Harry opened his eyes and looked around. He was standing inside Diagon Alley — in the backyard of his shop, the Leaky cauldron. For security reasons, no one could directly enter the shop, as the shop was also the entrance for his company — Harvey International.

He came here to investigate Horcrux. Harry has changed his form with his newfound ability, Metamorphmagus, and concealed his face with a black coloured hood. Many wizards and witches were covering their faces, so Harry didn't draw much attention.

When Harry entered the Alley, his focus was drawn towards two shops, and of all people who entered the Alley. The first shop was his own — Harvey International, Premium Potions!

His company was the first in England to provide Premium Potions. With Harry's great fortune in the muggle world, he converted them into gold and bought many luxury things for his company. Soon, his company eliminated all the companies by hook or crook, and became the biggest Premium Potion company!

One of the reasons was that it provided the Magic Awakening Potion, which brought unparalleled fame throughout the world, that helped reach the first place.

Now, 40% if the potions are outsourced in America and the rest of the 60% are sold here in England.

Despite its high price, all the potions are sold at the end of the day, so people had to come every day to buy it, despite that, the fame is rising every day!

Many people thought that it was Harvey's strategy to only sell a limited amount of potion every day, but the truth was that they had to spend so much time creating the Magic Awakening Potion, thus having limited time to create the rest of the potion, and so selling a limited amount of potions every day.

Many people suggested to recruit more potion masters, and even from other countries too, but Harry disagreed, as the first requirement was loyalty, and only after passing many strict exams would they employ them, so as not to leak any formula of potions!

Even with this high and strict requirement, the employee numbers of the company are increasing steadily!

Harry then remembered that he publically gave his family's secret potion recipe, which he received from the bank vault to the company so they could sell it, and restore the Potter family's name.

'I wonder how they will manage it as the demand for Premium Potions its all-time high, and I gave them more than 10 potion formula,' Harry thought, but soon, he put it back of his mind as he knew that he had many capable people around him to manage the company, so he didn't need to worry about it.

The second shop was Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. She single-handedly defeated all of her competitors and became the only shop for robes in the alley! She bought a few shops around her old shop and made the brand new, a bigger and better shop. Only at that time, she agreed to receive help from Harry, like the gold for those shops their owner asking, were out of her reach, and Harry helped her conditionally. He was also happy to watch her woman succeeding and getting fame for her hard work!

Harry remembered he was going to visit and surprise Madame Malkin after he was done with his business.

Harry then walked past both shops. He came here not too long ago. He wandered around and watched the shops and people. His real destination was the shop from Knockturn Alley. He soon reached the entrance of the Knockturn Alley.

Harry's impression of Knockturn Alley wasn't good, which he only heard from others and the memory provided by the system.

He remembered that the Knockturn Alley was the place where dark wizards regularly visit. It also sells some not-so-good artefacts for normal wizards, and that is all he knew.

Full of curiosity, Harry marched in Knockturn Alley.

The first was a barber's shop which didn't pique Harry's curiosity, so he bypassed it.

Then there was an unnamed betting shop crowded by mostly wizards, just like Harry — covering their face, and some witches too.

They were betting on the Quidditch match. Harry, from just a glance, could tell that it was an illegal shop.

Harry was instantly interested in it, as he already knew the future from the system, but he reframed from placing a bet, because there was no credibility of the shop, besides he doesn't lake the money.

Ahead, there was a potion ingredients shop. It looked pretty normal when Harry first saw it, but with careful sight, Harry found there were many illegal ingredients!

Harry became more and more excited as he went deeper inside the Knockturn Alley. Maybe because everyone told him not to go there and found it exciting to break the rule, or the dark, dirty place was something new to him that made him interested, or maybe both, he still went deeper to find something new, exciting thing.

And ahead, he found an interesting place, but not the way he had hoped for. It blew away his mind and touched the sour spot in his heart.

When Harry walked past the shop selling potion ingredients, he found a few deserted shops.

Even when he walked a few shops ahead, he still found the same, old, dirty, filled with vomit near them, and closed shops.

Harry had doubts about why the front few shops near the alley would be closed, but he still kept walking and soon found the answer.

As Harry walked past the sixth closed "shop," he got his answer. This shop was a little different than the previous few shops; there was a naked woman's picture which kept changing in a seductive pose — inviting visitors inside.

Harry saw it and walked past, thinking about what that could be. The woman was sexy but she couldn't be compared to any of his women.

After that, 3 "shops" were closed, but the 4th one was similar to the one just Harry saw — a woman wearing clothing barely covering her body, but the difference was the woman in the picture was standing outside and calling in passerby.

Only then did Harry's bulb light up and clear everything at once!

The "shop" wasn't the "shop", but instead, it was house — more like a small room that could hold two people until they could do "things".

That means, this shop — no, small room were, in fact, prostitute's place!

That could explain why they were closed on the day — they work at night and rest during the day!

That would also explain why people would speak ill about this Alley, and why his woman would try to avoid talking about alley and not let him come near anywhere!

Knockturn Alley, because, wasn't just a place for dark wizards and witches to hang out and do business, but also a place for prostitutes!

"I should have guessed it long ago! All the clues were there, only I hadn't guessed it! Why don't women talk about it or discouraged to go around that place, or his subordinate wouldn't bring or talk about this place? I could have guessed it from their facial expression and connecting a few dots too. Like, why would most people wear or cover their face when coming here? Because they don't want people to talk about them! Also, there is Magic Mutation, and magic rampage when compatible magic isn't around or had sex with that person, and, not everyone could find partner with compatible magic, so there must be a place to find witches, and wizards too, to find compatible magic and person, even that is just for a night!" The more Harry thought about it, the more it made sense to him.

(A/N: Magic Mutation is when wizard/witch lose control of their magic and emotions and become less humane and more like a beast.

Magic rampage is when wizard/witch loses control of their magic and they self-destructing and sometimes trying to kill others too.

Magic Rage happens when Wizard/witch lose control of their emotions and destroys things around them, and in extreme cases killing people around them too.

This is the small prize Wizard World had to pay for bearing God sent Magic!

These disasters/illness could be avoided entirely if they could find a suitable person with compatible magic!)

He concluded with, "So, this is a red district area of Wizard World!" His eyes were shining like a bright star.

It was like fog got clear and he could see the view!

The girl also called out for Harry, but Harry didn't go in with her. She was hot, no doubt about it, as all the wizards passing by were gazing at her, but she was no match compared to his women in the harem!

When Harry thought she couldn't find "work" during day time, a wizard went to her and dragged her inside, while her sweet and sexy voice came with a surprise. She still closed the door behind, as Harry had expected, she was a witch.

Harry went deeper inside the Alley and most of them were a small room like he had seen, and some were shops which were selling things either related to the dark wizard or illegal. There was one wizard who was shouting to passerby too, which Harry ignored, as he was no gay.

When Harry was about to reach the shop he was looking for, where Voldemort had worked in his youth, he found a huge house, maybe a combination of 4-5 shops. It was another brothel, but a big one.

Outside of the house, there were 5 moving photos of different women, and one of them was standing out and calling others, like few women Harry had seen earlier.

Harry stood in front of him, staring and dazed. The women thought it was because he was interested so she called him out, "We have the best women here! It is guaranteed to rock your world! How about you come and enjoy yourself?"

Harry came to himself then. It wasn't because of any women or photo, it was what she said that made his daze. She said, " we have two blood sisters, who could come and serve you!" That was why Harry was dazed.

It was his dream and fantasy to have a threesome with women and if possible, with two sisters too. This, two sisters serve, came to suddenly, out of nowhere, that made him dazed.

It was his sour spot that he hadn't threesome even one time!

No matter how much he pleads or planned, his women wouldn't serve him together. He could have a fantastic night with each of them, but separately.

That made him realize that his charm alone couldn't convince women for a threesome, he needs something more, and that is why he was looking forward to going to school!

He was hoping to find some clues, if not way, to have a threesome!

Because, his ultimate dream with his harem was, an orgy!

Harry's desire to go to school once again ignited in this place.

And to his great, and pleasant surprise, at school, he will have a threesome, and with twin sister at that, and some other adventure too! He won't regret his decision to go to school, despite having his own school!

Harry then shake his head and went ahead while mumbling, "There are, but few women who could rock my world! Even all five of you together couldn't stand my mightiness for one hour!"

A few people who heard Harry, as he hadn't surprised his voice, looked at him and sneered, calling him poor and not having gold to hold the beauty.

Harry ignored them, as he was neither poor or in need; also his women were far superior to any of them and walked ahead because he could see the shop where Voldemort once worked.

The reason and the possibility of having Horcrux would soon be solved here, and then he could go and surprise Madam Malkin!

Harry took a deep breath in and entered "Borgin and Burkes" shop.
