章節 26: The Hunch. Genius. A smart old man.
I was very naive.
Somehow the Eldens more exquisite appearance made me forget they were formerly House Elves. There was no way to stop the little creatures from Apparating wherever they want.
Why am I saying this?
Apparently giving my Eldens authority to obey the twins was a bad decision. And so here I was, sitting in a bathtub, naked, while my body was rubbed by two equally naked girls who stared at me like a piece of meat.
Is this how a girl feels when looked at by pervert men? I understand the feeling, sisters, we are together.
"Should I wash here?" Karine said pointing the sponge at my cock. I sighed.
"Not. I wash myself." I decided instantly.
"Stingy."
Aarine was more focused on my back now so I was more likely to play with the younger twin. Discussions about my body have become commonplace now. Hell, life at Hogwarts isn't going to be easy with them breaking into my room... Yes, I could have entered my Kamui dimension and let them sleep in the room alone while using the "Climbing the Great Pillar" technique to calm my mind. nerves, but I couldn't hide forever and a lecture would be the thing I would face as punishment when I left.
"You've been sighing a lot lately." Aarine commented as she rubbed my back.
"Sorry about that." I spoke. "My body hasn't gotten used to it yet and being around you doesn't help much...especially when you're naked."
"We're being very invasive, but be honest, if we weren't, how quickly would our relationship develop?" Karine said. "Although we should talk more, I still don't think ignoring this sexual tension is healthy."
"Whatever you say." I gave up. There's no way to argue with them anyway as they'll always find a way to move the conversation in a direction favorable to their agenda. Not that they were wrong to assume that. I really would have made this relationship more and more impossible if it weren't for their advances. Maybe I was the one who insists if we were teenagers, but that was just a possibility and not a certainty.
But there was something bothering me.
I am, if I can be a narcissist here, the most talented and strongest wizard that ever lived and I'm only 11 this year. I trained a lot to increase my muscle tone and body as a child, learned almost all the spells available in Nurmengard and the Black library, applied my knowledge practically in making golems and other products, and developed my magic a lot to very high levels.
My lineage also gave me a perverted boost in terms of power. My spells became more potent, my very existence began to evolve in some way I didn't quite understand, and my mind was super improved thanks to Magan. It wasn't a lie to say that I'm almost invincible at that point.
But for some reason, even with all these ridiculously high odds, was I experiencing urgency? There shouldn't be things that could threaten me in this world. Voldemort had already lost 2 pieces of his soul thanks to my intervention. Dumbles was a separate case. I didn't want to get involved in whatever plans he has for the Potter heir, and from what I've seen with my Magan, he harbors no malice against me. In fact, his soul seemed to send waves and waves of appreciation towards me that I found strange.
So what was the problem?
What could be so problematic that I, being me, wouldn't be able to fight it? Anyway, I should start preparing for the cold days.
Getting stronger will never be a mistake after all...
I also need to start thinking about what to do to free Grandpa. I was quite interested in ley lines since I saw the result of building things on top of a few. I wanted a castle in such a prime location. Well... maybe I could use a locating spell... or just create an algorithm that uses satellites to look for intersecting lines.
Yes, let's do this.
"I think we're ready here." I spoke and got up from the bathtub. "Come on girls, I have a few things to research now... I'll need an hour or two for this... and then we can sleep together."
"Well, let's not disturb my dear…actually, I don't think Aarine and I should sleep with you while we're at school." She said to my surprise. "Let's just enjoy moments like this shower and some appropriate romantic dates."
"That would be very sensible of you."
"Yes." Aarine retorted with disgust. "Let's leave you alone now."
And that's how I was abandoned.
For some reason, I didn't like it. I seem to have some kind of bipolarity after all, I had been the one who came up with the idea of healthy separation and here I was disliking it. Strange Pietro.
♧◇♡♤♡◇♧
the weekspassed and I had begun to regret my life choices.
Firstly, I started training physically again, but under suppressors as I didn't want to use my magnificently powerful body for that. I trained all my muscles from scratch and was still training with them as they hadn't reached their full potential thanks to the physical talent I found I had. I also came to a conclusion not previously reached. I never learned any kind of fight and when I say none that's what I mean. So even though I increased my body's strength and flexibility, I didn't even know how to punch well and decided to make up for it.
I mean, I could take part in a street fight and win, but it wouldn't have to do with technique, but more with the power of my jumbled punches. This was something I didn't want to have in me, this flaw is even more dangerous than my ass, which I recently discovered could be trained. See, having power and not teeinar properly is what caused Kaguya to be sealed twice in succession. Even though she is super powerful, with two amazing doujutsu, plus shikotsumiaku and unlimited amounts of juubi chakra, she was still defeated by two 17 year olds. Because of that and with that in mind, I asked Memphis to take me to the Muggle side and visited every possible martial arts dojo while using legilimency to steal the experience and knowledge of every fighting art they possessed.
I don't want to take that kind of risk as it would be humiliating to lose because of it. So I took everything I could from the dojos, among the styles I stole were krav maga, karate, Jiu Jitsu, capoeira, boxing, judo, taekwondo, kung fu, Tai Chi, wing chun, among others. I didn't even know there were so many dojos in London, but it was a good help. Now I just needed to physically relearn everything and for that I needed a training partner...
Aarine was more than interested in new ways to fight, and after passing on my stolen knowledge via legilimence to her, we began our days of physical fighting by limiting our bodies so that magic wouldn't interfere.
I am ashamed to say that, without my physical advantages, I lost badly to the beautiful blonde girl. In some ways she was a genius in hand-to-hand combat... and in other forms of combat as well. It seems that paladin syndrome wasn't a psychological thing after all. She had the talent to support her tastes.
Another thing I decided to learn was also sword fighting and other smaller melee weapons like daggers and daggers. See, I have a Magan who basically makes me an honorary member of the Hyuuga and the Uchiha, it would be ridiculous not to learn how to use ninja tools.
It helped that I could use the Ashura path to make endless weapons whenever I wanted.
Second, my algorithm for the ley line tracking program? It worked, in addition to not finding places with three or more overlapping lines like Hogwarts lands, the ones I found were in the deep ocean. That meant I couldn't build a castle unless I didn't reject the idea of an undersea property.
I also had some ideas for solving this problem, but I didn't want something inferior to Hogwarts. If anything, I want something better.
So again to the research we will go.
Another thing is that the original Harry Potter plot continued as predicted. I had basically cast a tracking spell from my personal spellbook on the Potter heir and as expected they went to the 3rd floor and found it fluffy... a few more days and I'll have a dragon egg to raise as Yulong's friend.
The Granger girl had also been nearly killed by the big mouth of the less talented Weasley and an adult mountain troll. The two Gryffindors still saved the girl and they became canon friends. Now and then I hear them arguing in the library about what keeps Cerberus in that trapdoor. They could speak lower, but again, it's like they want things like that to be known to everyone.
Idiots.

3rd POV
Meeting of Hogwarts Heads of House.
"Let's start." Dumbledore said in his annoying grandfatherly tone. He had smiled a lot in those weeks of the school year. His concerns about the golems were unfounded. Interestingly, the small toys reduced the amount of detentions rather than increasing them as children preferred to play with each other to deal with things. Only if that didn't increase the strength of the little ones' magic core even more...
Young Harry had also gotten golems of his own and now lived playing with other colleagues who owned the toy. Unfortunately for young Mr Weasley, he didn't have one he could use to play along with.
"Any reports?" he asked.
"It just seems like we worry too much." Minerva said smiling slightly satisfied withthe time you had with duplicating the monitors. They couldn't take the title after giving it away so it was decided that even with a few trouble spots, the monitors would continue... that allowed the Scottish lady to erase some of her dislikes in alcohol every night.
"Yes... I also noticed... magnificent objects the golems of Mr. Black... Severus... how does he walk?"
"Why is he interested?" Snape asked with obvious disgust. During these weeks he had some contact with Pietro and judged the boy a genius. In fact, he and his twin maids were scary things for 11-year-olds. His potions were impeccable and his questions almost made him enjoy his job for the first time.
In fact there was a situation where young Pietro spent 4 hours during the night talking to him about high level potions and modifications that could be made to them. The boy even suggested the use of microscopes, which he said could better analyze the structure that make up herbs and other ingredients. And when the half-breed admitted not knowing what he was about, Pietro gave him a book on basic chemistry and a magically modified microscope to use in experiments.
It was the first time in years that Severus felt alive.
Of course, thanks to this, the man was hesitant to make the boy too attractive to the old man on his left. Who knows what sort of thing Albus wouldn't pull to control the child or even limit him?
"Severus, my curiosity is merely that. I have no intention of harming a child." The old man said. "Actually, the little one was one of the few people I like. Be it your attitude or your genius..."
"I'm not the head of Mr Black's house, but I can say he's the most talented wizard alive today." Flitiwick started squealing in excitement. "He never stopped doing spells during class and almost didn't seem to be paying attention. Besides, he didn't use words to make the proposal... at that age and knowing magic without words is genius... let's not even mention that his understanding of spells is peculiar..."
"Peculiar?" Minerva questioned. Young Black didn't stand out much in his class, even doing the proposed, he was still the last... it was almost as if he wasn't even interested in the transfiguration.
"Yes... he theorized that casting magic depends on something called a mental image." Explained the half goblin. "He called it the theory of involuntary justification. Apparently young wizards and witches tend to disbelieve magic if it isn't self-explanatory. When he said that I almost jumped off the podium and gave him the place to teach in my place."
"Can you explain this theory?" asked Severus and Professor Sprout almost always silent and smiling also questioned with her eyes.
"Well...he used a lot of muggle terms so...I'm not really sure how to explain it..."
"Can we use the Pensieve? Could you let us watch the class memory?"
"Sure. Let's watch! "The little man shouted excited to see the most interesting class since he started his career as a teacher.
Then the 5 walked towards the artifact and Professor Flitiwick used his wand to pull the memory and play it on the Pensieve before settling down to watch.
~ flashback no jutsu ~
Class had already started and three students just sat idle as they watched the others waving their wands and shouting the lighting spell.
Flitiwick had already noticed that his students weren't really interested in this class and began to worry. Wasn't it interesting enough? Wasn't it supposed to be the simplest spell? The three Slytherins in question should know, right? Or at least young Mr Black should know? It is not?
It was only when everyone else had given up that the two twin sisters who accompanied Pietro drew their wands simultaneously and released the brightest Lumus ever.
"Magnificent. Magnificent. 30 points for Slytherin." shouted the man excitedly. "Could you explain how you did it to the rest of the class?"
That request made everyone face the trio with eagerness. They were in the great hall when Pietro talked about his creations and they knew the young man was a genius. The girls he hung out with must have been on a similar level of genius, right?
"Mental image?" Karine said dubiously towards the teacher.
"Like?"
"We used mental imagery... in my case and Aarine's, we imagined a fluorescent light before casting the spell."
"Lamp?" The teacher was surprised to find that he didn't know what the girl was talking about.
"Like the lamps stick in Muggle hospitals?" Hermione asked from across the room. She was worried about asking a Slytherin questions after all, but her curiosity got the better of her.
"Yes." Karine said confidently.
"So simple?" The girl thought and tried to use the same method, just so the spell would work easily. "It works!"
"Of course it works." pietrohe finally said something while his white head lay on the table. "Most wizards teach magic by preaching to young people who imagine a light coming out of the tip of the wand... at least that's the case with the Lumus spell... but it's not enough. Most brains work using association, and learning is about copying existing things. Using muggle examples works best for muggleborns, pureblood wizards should imagine natural sunlight...or the like." Pietro explained and almost at the same time, a blonde witch from his house tried it and managed to reproduce the same success.
"It really is!" she said surprised that it worked. "Can this be used for all spells?"
"Of course not." Aarine said this time. "Not all spells have examples in nature that we can associate things with. The levitation spell is a pretty obvious example as it goes against the law of gravity. Of course, only muggleborns would understand this example, as they have a basic understanding of the laws of physics."
"Laws of physics?"
"So muggle knowledge is not useless?"
"Should we study muggle things?"
"I left school to come to Hogwarts."
"I am finishing my distance school studies by correspondence." Hermione said. "A kind man from the Soley store suggested I go to college after finishing Hogwarts."
"Why?" Ronald Weasley asked in disbelief.
"Because most muggleborns don't find jobs in the wizarding world when they finish school." The witch explained with displeasure. "Even most ministry jobs are given to purebloods or mestizos. Even his father, who works in a department where Muggleborns know best, is a fullblood favored by wizarding society."
"This this..."
"Okay kids...Mr. Black, could you tell me what the chances are that what you and your friends say will actually work in practice?"
"Besides we used this method ourselves and it worked, I'm not sure... or even the muggle born and pureblood examples didn't prove it here and now." The young man said pointing to Hermione and Daphne Greengrass. "I think the theory can be considered tried and tested. I'll call it the "Theory of Involuntary Justification". This explains that most wizards associate their spells with natural examples or using finely explained physical laws to perform their spells." The boy said with a smile, "The Lumus spell, for example, has the premise of generating light... in both cases, using lamps or the sun as a mental image suggests an addition to the spell that is unnatural... Both Miss Granger's and Miss Greengrass's Lumus emitted heat pulses. However, the spell shouldn't have generated heat... Why do you think this occurred?"
"Why do we use mental images associated with this? Both Daphne and I used examples that gave off heat and light to the spell." Hermione spoke. "But... still... imagining anything else would be difficult now that we've performed the spell with this image... and it had results so it doesn't matter."
"There we are mistaken, Miss Granger... see, what is the function of the lighting spell?"
"Provide light?"
"In what cases is it used? No need to answer, I do. In the dark. Our magical world has many cases where wizards and witches of many different types need a list of spells they must master. Curse breakers for example need Lumus to enter magical ruins... now if they cast a Lumus like yours, both ladies, what would happen? Again a rhetorical question." The boy said when the thick-haired witch opened her mouth. "In situations like this, you don't know what you'll find. There are creatures that live in darkness and locate themselves with heat vision, many curses are activated when they detect heat from a mage's body, and many other situations. Most mages wear enchanted robes to hide miscellaneous things. Smell, heat, breath, sight... So using a Lumus like yours would be like turning on a headlamp and saying 'We're here, devour us' and that's stupid."
That left everyone silent. Professor Flitiwick never really explained the future uses of spells taught over the years, but that lecture showed all the students how important their learning was. His work was done by a 1st year student and he didn't know how to feel. Accomplished? Riled up? Happy? Sad? But he still wanted to hear where he was going.
"But the twins also used that mental image…" Hermione tried again.
"But they know how to insulate heat, or rather not imagine heat." The boy said. "Using the fluorescent lamp was just so that the desired light could be replicated. When she used the lamp as an example, they meant they used the lamp light as an example and you, as a muggleborn, shouldthat light, like a wave, does not emit heat although it channels it well."
And again that silenced most of the Muggle-born students while the purebloods didn't know what to do. They didn't understand anything the young man discussed and were irritated by it.
"Well, I guess I'll have to publicize my new work sooner than I expected." The boy sighed and smiled towards the purebloods. He grabbed a bag and started pulling out books and more books piling them on the table. "2 gallons per book, little boys. Come and buy."
Teacher was disbelieving when he saw the boy start selling books during the class only to realize that the class was over, he already had 5 minutes. So he decided to buy one of the books and the title almost made him laugh.
{Basic Physics Guide for stupid inbred wizards with God complex that any idiot should know before wielding a dangerous weapon like a wand.}
It will be an interesting read.
~ flashback no jutsu end ~
The teachers were silent and thoughtful. What the boy said was just something that would again cause waves in today's wizarding society. They didn't know what to think, even Severus started to think that maybe Muggle knowledge is very useful to complement magic. Chemistry for potions, physics for spells... what's next?
"Can Flitiwick lend me that book?" Minerva asked before the others did.
"Not. He only costs 2 Galleons, buy his." The little man said and left the room before Dumbledore ended the meeting.
"Well, I think we're done here." Dumbledore said humorously.
So everyone went in search of their own copy of a book written by a student. The old man lost his grandfatherly expression and began to think about the problems caused by the Weasley twins. Somehow he managed to convince the Hogwarts governing body that the things were bewitched to do what they did, but that wasn't quite what happened.
There was no sign of outside magic in them and therefore there was no outside influence. The twins on the other hand were acting against his will as Dumbledore himself saw their memories of what had happened and realized that their bodies did not obey his mental commands. Now he had two boys from a supportive family suffering from severe post-traumatic syndrome and an idiot father wanting to kill two children for humiliating an old noble house.
Sigh.
The old man didn't understand how it had happened, but he had a feeling it was something Mr. Black did. This distrust was not unfounded as he performed many miracles... assuming he created the golems... how difficult would it be for him to cast a spell without leaving a trace?
Sigh.
It looked like the old man would have to drown his taste buds in lemon drops just to be able to sleep tonight. He was getting too old for all this shit!
