Dominic looked at the veil that was around him and Mr. World with so scepticism but Loki cleared it easily, "You can shout as loud as you wish right now, but no one else will hear anything we say."
"Can you tell about it now then Mr. World."
"Yes." Loki made the illusion nod before speaking with a clear voice, "Voldemort is going to attack more villages around Britain both magical and mundane to make sacrifices out of them for a ritual to regain his body."
Dominic's brows furrowed.
"And how did you co by this information?"
"I happened to thwart the sacrifice of one such village myself last week."
"Could you tell more about that mission?"
"Sure." Mr. World nodded and then explained after reminiscing about the incident and collecting his words to fake a story. "Everyone in the village was given a chance to et their dead relatives by a demonic creature. This demonic creature was quite powerful and had been summoned from the abyss by performing a ritual."
"The demonic creature could resurrect people?"
"I do not know what the exact ans the demonic creature used was but the lord knew about it. When I asked him about what it was, he inford . He said it was only a projection that mimicked the soul of a person in the river of death."
Dominic nodded and accepted Mr. World's words after looking at Mr. Error with so shock.
Before Loki could dismiss the veil, however, he made Mr. World say sothing else.
"If you don't want to pay in galleons Mr. Strength, you can pay with similar information."
Dominic frowned for a second before deciding to save so money.
"The Unspeakables have decided to send their personnel across Britain to search for other villages affected by demons. With your information about this relating to you-know-who I'm sure there will be more personnel sent out."
"I see. That is information valuable enough." Mr. World nodded and the two of them fell silent as if lost in their own thoughts.
"Will that be all?" Loki asked Mr. World and Dominic both of whom nodded after which Loki lifted the veil that shrouded the two of them in secrecy.
Mr. Devil imdiately looked at Dominic and began to analyze him for any information he could gain without paying Mr. World, but the mirage that blurred their expressions didn't let him peer through.
"Would you like to learn about the information too Mr. Devil?" Mr. World asked politely.
Mr. Devil looked at Mr. World in silence for a few seconds before nodding.
"Alright then." Loki nodded and waved his hand once again to use the grey fog to create a veil of secrecy around the two of them.
Mr. Devil, having seen the veil when it was used with Dominic did not question or linger on its effectiveness and jumped straight to the question he wanted to ask.
"What important information about the Lord do you know?"
Mr. World instantly frowned and politely warned, "Do not call another person with the epithet of the Lord while you are in the presence of Mr. Error."
Mr. Devil froze at his blunder but Loki calmly waved his hand, "It's alright. But there must not be a next ti. People posturing as Gods that are not even as strong as vermin aren't worth my respect."
"As you say Mr. Err- my lord. I will be mindful of my words next ti." Mr. Devil spoke with a deep bow and Loki nodded.
Mr. Devil then turned to look at Mr. World once again and waited for him to speak.
"The information is simple, Voldemort is planning to sacrifice multiple villages around Britain to regain his body and return stronger than ever before." Mr. World stated plainly.
It made Mr. Devil a little annoyed that Mr. World was speaking the na of his Lord so calmly but he kept his descent buried deep inside since he was in enemy territory.
"Might I know how you ca across this information?"
"I have a spy in the Unspeakables who inford about a case that they'd recently taken up in which a village was embroiled in a fight against the demon of wishes."
Mr. Devil frowned and spoke with a little hatred, "I see. Do you know if they know about any other such cases?"
"They don't currently know about any more cases but they've already made up their minds to send personnel all around the country to create a quick action task force that will move out to take care of any such attacks."
"Thank you for the information, I will pay you along with the money for the item you've crafted for , is that alright?"
"Yes, that will be fine." Mr. World nodded politely.
With that Loki lifted the veil around Mr. Devil and his smurf account Mr. World.
Loki then looked at Snape who was having a hard ti deciding if he should ask Mr. World for the information. But after a few seconds of silence, Snape finally looked at Mr. World and spoke softly.
"I would…like to learn about that information too Mr. World." Snape said with slight annoyance in his tone that hinted at his unwillingness to do such a thing.
Both Mr. Devil and Dominic looked at Snape as if they were seeing a new person altogether, and Sirius looked at him with so interest too, but given how he'd realised that this place wasn't a dream anymore, he remained silent, opting not to speak out or react in any way.
Loki casually flicked his finger and set up a shadowy veil around Mr. World and Mr. Moon as they looked at each other, analysing each other to learn any information they could about the other's state of mind.
"I didn't think you'd be interested in these matters Mr. Moon." Mr. World started.
Snape looked at him scrutinisingly but then spoke as he did in classes, with a strong sense of pride and authority.
"I am simply learning about it since the matter has piqued my interest.", Snape responded, not giving out any more clues about the situation, but Loki couldn't help it and laughed ntally.
'Seriously!? Why did he speak about the spectator pathway sefirot in the earlier etings then? That clearly gave away his allegiance…'
'*sigh* whatever. Ti to gauge the situation and cast a net.'
"On my quest to learn more about Voldemort, I recently encountered a village whose residents were being sacrificed with the help of a Demon."
Snape frowned when he heard that, but Loki didn't stop there.
"According to my knowledge about mysticism and the Criminal pathway, the ritual for advancing to the next sequence requires one to use the sacrifices of a large number of people."
Snape's frown deepened but he said nothing else, that was only until-
"...the more intriguing thing about the situation to were the coincidences that happened around the case…the failure of the Unspeakables in catching the incident beforehand, the large number of similar incidents happening all around Britain with no one to oppose them-
"-the strange spies in the White faction that are being ratted out and killed because of these incidents…"
"-it was almost as if soone imagined these cases into reality."
Snape's eyes widened.
"Sothing big is going on Mr. Moon. Sothing is being orchestrated behind the scenes. It is almost as if soone plans on using this incident to stir up a divide in the Wizarding world by forcing the Beyonder world to take a stance-"
"-soone is preparing the world for a ritual of so sort." Loki concluded.
The gears in Snape's head turned for a while in the extended silence.
''He' did this?'
'Does 'He' plan to involve Potter in this? In the ritual for 'Him' to advance to Sequence 0?'
'Or was it 'He' who wants to advance to Sequence 2 Bloody Archduke?'
Snape's frown deepened.
And after a few more seconds, he spoke calmly.
"Is it possible to know more about this ritual?"
Loki looked at Snape for a while before asking-
"It is possible. But I'd like to know more about sothing else too…"
"...What is it?"
"I'd like to know more about what the White Lord plans to do in the near future."
Snape frowned when he heard that since it ant that Mr. World had broken through his disguise at least partially to know that he was close to Dumbledore to be able to keep an eye on him and his moves.
As they waited for a few more seconds in the deafening silence of the Sefirah Castle, Snape finally spoke.
"I can't tell you about everything."
Mr. World only smiled and nodded with joy.
"That's alright. I only want to know about anything that would threaten the children of the wizarding world…I hate it when soone uses children for their own plans you see."
Snape felt a slight sense of companionship with Mr. World, but he kept these feelings out of his next lines.
"I will pay you with the information about 'His' moves when you give information about the ritual."
Mr. World just nodded and Snape continued.
"I can pay you for the information you've given today. How much do you expect?"
"You could give other similarly valuable information or pay three hundred galleons."
Snape looked annoyed but didn't say much as he simply nodded.
"I'd like you to oversee our transaction my Lord."
Loki nodded and with a wave of his hand, the veil covering the two of them vanished, revealing them to everyone else.
With the dealings finished and no one else talking about anything, Loki decided to end the gathering and spoke calmly, "If that is all we can return for the eting next week."
Everyone stood up at that and bowed deeply, "By your will."
Loki looked at them all and nodded softly before severing all their connections so that they'd leave except Hermione since she'd given him a hint that she wanted to stay back.
"Honored Mr. Error, could you please guide so that I can gain power faster?" Hermione said with a deep bow.
'Did she get scared after learning that Voldemort's planning sothing?'
'But there's only one way for a Beyonder to get stronger-'
Waking up on her bed, Hermione recollected everything that happened in today's eting.
'Based on what Mr. World said it seems like you-know-who is planning sothing new.'
'I should warn Harry about it so that he is on the lookout for any strange things happening.'
'Didn't he tell during sumr that his scar hurt quite a bit after a strange dream?'
'Perhaps that's related?'
Hermione frowned and then looked at her hands under the moonlight. Her mind lingered on the words Mr. Error had spoken.
'There's only one way for a Beyonder to beco stronger. That is to digest their potion by acting and advancing through their sequences.'
'But how can I digest my potion faster!?' Hermione asked.
'You could try to do as your potion says, beco the apprentice of a high sequence Beyonder. I'm sure Hogwarts has several of them around.'
Hermione clenched her fist as she made up her mind.
"I'll ask Professor McGonagall to take in as an Apprentice."
'Perhaps I can tell her I'm a little scared from the last mission and wanted to beco more reliable and stronger so that others can depend on .'
'I was practically a tag-along on the last mission.'
'*sigh*'
'What a strange world I've stepped into.'
