After buying the map, I went to the room of requirents. In there, I started making preparations for the chamber of secrets. Well, I had to start it now, since I can't really rest easy hoping that no one has the Diary. It's better to assu that soone already has it and prepare accordingly.
The very first thing I did was,
"Serpensortia." I summoned a snake.
This is the first and foremost thing I needed to do. To summon a snake.
"Sssssssss!"
"Well damn." I muttered while backing away.
I had summoned a f*cking cobra on my first try. It was about 3 tres long, with a brown body, with white patterns. as it landed on the floor with a thud and began examining his surroundings while flicking it's tongue.
'Lets get started.'
Concentrating on snake, I opened my mouth and said,
"Hi - I - am - Chris. I'm - not - going - to - attack -you." I said slowly. The snake turned it's head towards and it looked like it was preparing to attack .
I frowned. Did it not work? I turned to Nyxie, "Hey did I speak a different language just now?" I asked her.
Nyxie tilted her head and looked at ,
"w?"
(Is sothing wrong with your head??)
"...."
Alright, I can't normally speak parseltongue. But... I still have a hope! This ti, I concentrated a lot and entered my dragon transformation. I looked at the cobra which was all coiled up, read to attack and open my mouth
"Aaah-Haa-Hasseey-Sssseytha-Ssss-Hathehhh-Ssseyaa-Ayaeeh-Seyytha-Ehhh-Esseytha-Ssss"
This ti, the snake began spreading its neck-flap, raising its head upright, puffing, and hissing.
"...."
I couldn't understand a word it was saying.
Needless to say, I don't know jackshit about what I said earlier. I was just trying to produce hissing noises similar how I once saw Harry do. I just ended up making an even bigger fool of myself in front of Nyxie.
Sighing, I vanished the snake sat back down on the couch. I don't know what I was expecting. I just thought that since dragons and snakes are both reptiles, there's a chance that I'd be able to talk to snakes. But well, it's understandable that it didn't work. Even humans can't understand monkeys or chimpanzees even though they're quite similar.
I punched my fist. There goes my plan of keeping a giant Basilisk in my backyard. It obviously won't work. I was even planning on showing my giant Basilisk to Dora.
...Dirty jokes aside, she actually likes snakes. Snakes and rabbits. Isn't she unique?
She has said multiple tis that she'd totally have tried to go into Slytherin if her parents hadn't talked her out of it. Dora's Patronus is a rabbit so she apparently likes rabbits more though. Maybe because snakes are usually associated with the Slytherin house. And she hates Slytherin house.
Though the subject of Dragons is a bit complicated due to Charlie Weasley. She does like Nyxie, though Nyxie doesn't seem to like her back for so reason. But over the months, she had sohow managed to make her presence tolerable to Nyxie.
Anyways, I'll need to think about so other ways to deal with the Chamber of Secrets. Man, I knew this wasn't gonna end so easily. But whatever, right now I need to go to my family.
I took out the Vanishing Cabinet from my Newt-case. I don't wanna leave it in the room of requirents. If anyone sohow finds it, they'll have direct access to my ho. And Though I've warned my family mbers against stepping into it, but in case soone does mistakenly enters, they'll still be fine since Newt-case is habitable. That's why I haven't put in a normal extendable pocket.
I entered it and ca out on other side in my room no wait This isn't my room, it's Es's!
As I looked around, I saw Es sitting at her study table, trying to study while Camille helped her while sitting beside her. Both hadn't noticed my presence.
"Ahem, ahem," I cleared my throat.
Es and mom both turned their head and both smiled joyfully when they saw and I also felt glad that my presence can make them so happy.
I hugged them both and got a kiss on both cheek. "Honey, thank rlin you're back. This little devil has been driving us mad since morning!" said Camille while tapping ruffling Es her.
"Oh really? Was Es not a good girl while I was gone?" I asked Es, who was sitting in my lap.
Es hid her head in my school robes and peeked thorough the gap. "No." She murmured quietly.
I lted and mom also chuckled, "She's acting all innocent now. She was so restless earlier that she made us place the Vanishing Cabinet into her room. And she even had lunch and dinner here!" she said helplessly.
"Maman!" Es protested embarrassedly.
"Don't be embarrassed. Es is a good girl." I said while brushing her head and Es went back to hugged .
"Where's dad?" I asked.
Camille rolled her eyes. "Your dad's in the study, doing ministry paperwork."
Well, I'll et him later. I need to ask him about so things.
I poked Es's cheek. "So, how's little Es doing these days? Do you properly miss your big brother?"
Es turned shy and mom answered in her stead, "She's doing just fine. Spends the whole day with Gabrielle. But she was a bit lonely today, since the Delacours had gone to visit Fleur today."
Well, now I feel guilty for coming late. "Oh well, no problem. Big brother is here now. So, what were you studying just now?"
"It is ma-gic theory." said Es seriously.
"Oh... but isn't it boring without a wand?" I asked. I genuinely thought it to be boring if you can't actually test it out. That's why I didn't like most of my muggle subjects. And that's why I love magic.
Es's face went into a downward (
That's every magical child's sore spot. They're not allowed wands, and there are many reasons for that. And the main one, which I only found out later is that they shouldn't do magic at that age. They have so little magic that it actually might damage their core if they accidentally put too much magic power.
But so pureblood families still allow their to use wands for practice when they're a bit older under strict supervision. Like a few spells a day. There's a mixed opinion about whether it's good or bad for the child.
But well, I have a way help her learn magic without any risks.
"Es, would you like to try doing magic?" I asked, and Es eyes shined.
Camille made a troubled face as she denied it. "No honey, Es isn't old enough yet."
"Mom, I have a way." I said as I took out a wand encrusted with different types precious gems and stones. "See this wand? It's quite unique. I can store my magic in it." I said. And both sheilas' eye got glued to the beautiful wand. It had smooth and shiny tallic body made of an alloy of gold, silver and a few other magic conducting tals with many tiny runes inscribed into it.
And the jewels and stones embedded in it shined with different colours showing that it was actually fully charged. I had charged it for ergency, if I beca like Sasuke of Boruto series and ran out of magic. This was a similar model as the one that's in my secret basent.
"H-Honey... where did you get that wand from?" asked Camille, not taking her eyes off it.
"The sa place I got all those jeweleries and ornants from. Didn't I tell you? Hogwarts is quite a mysterious and unexplored place. You might get lost in the endless passages and find yourself into a room full of treasures if you're lucky." I smiled.
Camille nodded in understanding. I had given all of them, especially Es those Jewelry that I gave to the Tonks family.
Those jewelries or ornants are made to store pure magic. Though they have many benefits, it's really most useful for the occluncy. And Es needs to quickly have occluncy. Currently, she's not making eye contact with any stranger. And I especially warned her to not even be in the sa room as that minister. He's one sus dude.
I handed the wand over to Camille, who took it into her hands with shaky fingers.
"Try it, mom. Though it's bonded to , but I think you can also use it to so degree, since we have a blood relation."
"Woah, it feels sooo good." Camille muttered out aloud. Well it was filled with pure magic. So of it will inevitably be transferred to her. And pure magic always makes the body feel quite relaxed. Whenever I can't sleep, I activate the trigger for a few seconds.
Camille held the wand out and bright light bursted out of it. And her jaw fell open.
"It was just a Lumos!" She exclaid.
"Yeah well, you're using your own magic as well. Just use the stored magic, mom." I pointed out. I think she'll figure it out with just this much.
She did a Lumos again and this ti, the wand glowed normally.
"Wow. It's so much easier to do magic with it..." She muttered.
'Well, if it's made from materials that are enough to buy the whole Ollivander shop. Of course it'll be easier to cast magic with it.' I thought inwardly. Though all the material is actually stolen from rich muggles. Though, needless to say, only I can make it. Like my magic casting, my rune carving is also unique, but that's a story of another ti. And of course, sensing magic helps in figuring out the best ratios in alloys and best sequences in runes.
It's quite funny really. Just how much I can abuse my simple ability to sense magic in this world. It can even be a !
God to a random soon to be reincarnator: I'll reincarnate you to a Harry Potter world.
Reincarnator: What are my golden fingers??
God: You'll be able to sense magic, And that too, only the magic that you're in direct contact with.
Reincarnator: Wtf! What kind of shitty power is that?! What can I even do with it?! This power doesn't seem like much.
God sighed in extre exasperation.
"Well, say this to the dude who beca a f*cking God with just this."
While I was lost in thought, I felt a tug on clothes and saw that was looking at impatiently. I turned around to see that mom was still playing with the wand.
I sighed, "Mada Martin, it's not a toy and you're not a kid. Let Es try it, please."
"Oh." Camille smiled embarrassedly as she quickly handed the wand over to Es.
Es giddily took the wand in her hands and tried to do magic for the very first ti.
"Lumos!" She said, while doing the wand motion.
And there was a little spark but it quickly went out. Well, magic is not that easy for kids. Even I could only do it so easily during my first ti because I could sense it and call it forward easily and also had an adult mind.
Es got a bit sad that it didn't work on the first try.
I patted her head. "Don't be disappointed, Es. It was very good for your first try. The incantation and wand movent were perfect. You just need to train your intent. Then I'll teach you the minor details which will help you cast more complicated spells." I entered teacher. Taking out my wand, I cut down all the lights in the room, plunging us into darkness.
Es got tense by the sudden darkness and put a hand on her shoulder. "Now Es, try the spell again, to create light in this dark room." This is the easiest way to make her realize the effect of intent.
"Lumos." She said, and the wand tip glowed bright, making three faces dimly visible to .
"Yeah! You did it, Esm" wait a second, three? There were two other faces here.
"Aaaaaaa!" Camille scread and fire a purple spell at the fourth silhouette. Camille without her occluncy shields activite is quite lively, huh? (Why the hell would she keep them on when she's happily spending ti with her kids? It dampens your emotions.)
The silhouette casted a shield and his face beca fully visible. Ah, it's just Durant.
Really man, with ghosts and spirits being real in this world, you can't really be sure all the ti.
***
On the next Monday,
after classes, I asked Harry how to say "Open", "Close" , "Stairs" , etc in Parseltongue. I have high hopes of it working, since Ron did it in canon.
It's ti I paid the chamber of secrets a visit.
