章節 51: Chapter 51
Alex woke up the next day and inspected the orb instrument he had created. The red orb was shattered while the light in last one was no more.
"Looks like it all went according to plan. Now, hehe… It''s time for the harvest."
He took off the glass sphere on top and then lifted the metallic bowl, under which was another glass sphere that was the size of a tennis ball. Inside it was a silvery mist that swirled continuously.
'Who would've thought that I'll have enough knowledge and the means to pit those two against each other and gain a lot in return while they get nothing. Greed huh… this year is probably going to be my best.'
He took out a copper helmet that had a cup on top and placed the orb in the cup before he wore it. After that was done, he made himself comfortable on the sofa.
A ceramic bottle popped out from one of his rings and he caught it before eating one of the pills inside. After sending the bottle back in, he closed his eyes and waited for the pill to throw him to sleep.
'Oh shit, I forgot.'
"Toffy!!"
*POP!*
"Toffy, eat this pill. You will take over my appearance after a while. I want you to simply walk randomly and not go into crowded places. Come back here at night and just in case, take some of my memories.", He said as he placed the tip of his wand at the centre of his forehead and extracted a strand of silvery cloud like liquid before he shot it at Toffy's head.
Toffy fell backwards as he fainted and Alex stood up to wait for him. About ten minutes later, the elf woke up and Alex sighed in relief.
"Finally… now… go….. I'm too… sleepy."
He fell back and landed on the sofa before he instantly went to sleep.
Knowledge, experiences and every single thing that Voldemort and Dumbledore did in his "Experience Extractor" were being stored in his brain.
While that happened, he was also replaying the fights and the ways they used magic in a dream-like state, slowly absorbing it all like he was the one who did it.
Time slowly passed in real time while months passed in his dream world.
Three days later, he opened his eyes as the effects of the pill wore off and since the process was extremely painful, he woke up in an instant.
He felt like his brain had been thrown into a blender.
"HOLY SHIT! THIS HURTS!!" he screamed as he rolled on the floor. Blood dripped off of his nose and eyes while he was sweating insanely due to the pain and stress that his body was in.
A few hours passed before he could even sit up. His whole body hurt, especially his abdomen and his head.
"Toffy…"
There was nothing. No pop, no appearances, absolutely nothing.
His heart suddenly felt like it was sinking into nothingness. A really bad feeling crept into his body as he hurriedly tried to stand up, only to stumble and fall.
'I shouldn't have sent him out… why the hell was I so cautious?' he thought as he crawled to the door slowly as he struggled through the pain.
*POP*
"OH. MY. FUCKING. GOD! Where the hell were you?"
"Toffy asks for forgiveness, master. Toffy was talking to master's friend, Aman. To not raise suspicions, I had to excuse myself."
Alex calmed down. Just imagining a scenario of seeing Toffy hurt was enough to make him go crazy.
"Tch. At least you're alive. Hmm… when did you become so smart?"
"Pardon me, master. Toffy doesn't understand."
Alex sat back on the sofa before rubbing his chin, lost in thought.
"Wait… I didn't use a pensive and instead just forced my memories into your brain. Let me ask you something, Toffy. Did you see my memories or did you experience them?"
"When Toffy went unconscious, Toffy was master."
"Good. An excellent discovery… with this, I can change my plans for an even grander outcome. Heheheheheheeee-eughh, my stomach…. hurts…"

He walked out of the room of requirements and took a nice warm bath before changing into some good clothes. After he felt like a new person, he headed over to the great hall where everyone was preparing for the end-of-year feast.
Professor snape and a few other sixth year students were busy decorating the room with large green banners, silver and green flags and lots of other bizarre things.
Alex simply relaxed as he took a seat beside Aman.
"What's your plan for summer?", he asked as he put his arm around Aman's shoulder.
"Well… just stay with my mother and help her in the farm, I guess. What are you going to do over the summer? You told me that your wanted to be a broom maker and instead you made the frigging game board. Oh, by the way, I have a question. Why do you call it the game board instead of duelling board?"
"Well… that was the name that I gave it at first and people just followed it without really thinking about it… about the broom… next year for sure I guess and if not next, then the third year. I'll make a broom so good that it will blow your mind."
"Okay okay. Plans, mister Alex. What are your plans?"
"Ah haha. Well, just do some research I guess? After all, I have to make a broom right?"
"You can come to my house if you want. Oh, and bring your parents too. Mom would love to meet them."
"… well, sorry to disappoint you but, I'm actually an orphan. Mom died in an accident and my dad… his heart failed when he heard the news."
Aman didn't respond for a few seconds and instead patted him on the back.
"It's alright. My dad passed away too, so I know how much it hurts… at least half of it."
Time quickly passed as they talked and soon, Dumbledore arrived.
'Yeah… let me see how you award them points this time.'
"Another year gone!" he said cheerfully before continuing but Alex couldn't help but notice the dark circles under his eyes.
"There were a lot of ups and downs for everyone this year, I'm sure. Anyways, let us finish the formalities soon as I am pretty hungry right now."
