章節 164: Roommates

"Can I ask why?"

"I had some issues of my own." Silas said vaguely in almost a murmur, as he placed a box on top of his table, "This is your uniform and the books for this semester. It's mostly the same but you won't at least have to read Lockhart's book here."

Seeing Silas deliberately divert the topic, Draco didn't continue on it as he vaguely nodded.

"Also, here is the map for Durmstrang and your school's ciriculum." Silas placed the papers on top of the box, "Oh! I almost forgot, this is the badge you must wear as a transfer student, you should just put it on now."

Draco took the badge from Silas and looked at it, trying to feel any mana coming from the badge but as he expected, it was just a normal badge. The badge had the same Durmstrang's coat of arms as he saw before except the background which was completely white.

"There aren't any tricky stairs or misguided rooms here in Durmstrang, so there is no need to worry about losing your way." Silas said smiling, "I have marked your room on the map, so please head there for now."

Understanding that Silas didn't want to have a conversation any further, Draco obliged and picked the box up as he headed out towards the door but just before he went out he decided to test the waters, "Professor since you went to Hogwarts, I wonder why Dumbledore really didn't seem to recognize you back there."

"People change, Mr. Black." Silas said in an unusually calm but hurrying tone, "And not all of us can be a notable student now, can we?"

Draco didn't look back as he headed out the door without any further questions. The moment he did, he heard a loud thud as the door behind him closed causing Draco to smile. "Just another idiot." Draco said to himself as he followed his way to his room with the help of the map.

Though he wasn't much certain before, he was now more than sure that there was something wrong with Silas. Though he couldn't completely link it with Ryan but seeing Silas's action and how easy it was to get on his nerves made one thing very clear, Silas wasn't a big fan of Draco as he pretended to be.

-----------------------------------------

Back inside his office, Silas threw the table across the room with an extreme force growling with anger.

"This isn't good." He said to himself as he gritted his teeth taking heavy breaths, "To force my transformation mid-day just by me being near him. I need to tell master about this..."

-------------------------------------------

Draco slowly but surely found his room, which seemed to be in the dormitory as the others. Unlike Hogwarts, there weren't any houses in Hogwarts so everyone lived in the same place. Draco was allocated in room no 57.

Looking around he sighed at the hollow place and entered his room when out of nowhere he heard someone read a spell. Without hesitation, he dropped whatever that was in his hand and dodged taking his wand out as he pointed it at the direction of the person in front of him.

To his surprise, the person in front of him was just a young boy smiling at him with no wand in his hand. Looking at him, he seemed about the same age as Draco and was wearing a Durmstrang's uniform. But one thing that stood out was the orange patch of hair which was different from the rest of his brown head, the feature made Draco finally realize who he was.

The boy in front of him was Walter Snyde from the Snyde family, a well renowned pure-blood family. Snyde family though not as ancient as the Malfoys, it is mostly known for its wealth as they don't ever seem to lack it and the fact that Walter's parents were death eaters was another thing that stood out amongst the rest. Which was also the reason Draco was familiar with him and was one of his friends growing up until the latter's family decided to move out of the city and live far-off from all the 'problems'.

"Snyde?"

"Malfoy or should I say, Black?" The Walter smirked, "Seems like you really are living up to the reputation these days."

"The hell are you doing here?" Draco asked getting up.

"You mean here in Durmstrang or your room?" Walter said casually leaning against a desk, "For your first question, I needed to go to a school and Durmstrang was the nearest one and as for the second question, congratulations you've got your self a roommate."

"Well it seems you're still a dick, I guess some people really don't change." Draco said waving his wand as he picked up the things he dropped, "And here I thought, Durmstrang would be nice enough to give the transfer student a room of his own but I guess not."

"Same here, I thought they would at least leave me alone but who knew they were going to shove a transfer student in my room." Walter said, "Well but they really can't do anything about it either, as the other rooms here are all packed other than the ones in the girl's dormitory."

"Girls dormitory..." Draco mumbled as he finally remembered that Durmstrang was not the same as the movies but rather like the books where the school housed not only the boys but girls as well.

"Still drooling about girls are you?" Walter commented seeing Draco lost in his thoughts, "Oh well can't really blame you but I got to warn you, the girls here are not that pretty. According to the rumors, the pretty ones started moving away after Igor came in."

"Not going to call him by respect?"

"For a coward?" Walter sneered, "Che, besides what are you doing here? Isn't Hogwarts good enough for the prince?"

"Again with the prince thing..." Draco rolled his eyes, "I have some work to do here but honestly I am surprised you're here. I thought your family were all loyal Slytherins in Hogwarts, I was surprised you weren't there?"

"Oh were you?" Walter asked sarcastically, "4 years and you didn't even send a letter, and you were surprised that you didn't see me in Hogwarts?"

"Well, thanks for leaving me with an address to send a letter to." Draco said in a sarcastic tone as well, "I remember sending plenty but you never replied."

Both of them looked at one another and laughed.

"I couldn't." Walter said smiling, "Father didn't want anyone to know and you know how things were after Voldemort was gone."

"Well, I wouldn't pretend liked I remember either." Draco said smiling as well, "After you were gone I was busy with a lot of other things, you know magic and stuff. But its really good to see you again."

"You too buddy." Walter said, "How's Theodore and the rest?"

"Theodore's the same as usual and I haven't really met with the rest of them." Draco said sighing, "We all separated ways after that and I have no clue of where they are either. Honestly, if I hadn't come to Durmstrang I would've never known you were here as well."

Due to Voldemort's actions, a lot of the purebloods suspected of being the death eaters were having a hard time living in a normal society like before. While houses like Malfoy's stood tall due to their heritage being old and strong enough, some of the newly formed pure-blood family weren't that lucky and had to leave to different hideouts and countries to at least live peacefully. The Snyde family was just one of many.

"I haven't met the others too." Walter said, "But you would be surprised knowing who else is here?"

"Don't tell me..." Draco made a bitter face as he realized something looking at Walter's weird smile.

"You guessed it, Grimblehawk is here as well."

"I thought her family was not really into the idea of Durmstrang." Draco questioned, "She always talked about going to Beauxbatons. I mean why is that crazy girl even here?"
