Second Year (VI) & A Small Timeskip…

[POV Reo(Edgar)]

Well, the next day wasn't like I had thought but it's not that I was complaining. I wished to see how the ferret reacted when he received the news of his father's untimely demise.

But unfortunately, the ferret wasn't here, the rumor was that someone has taken him away from Hogwarts. I would have believed that it was Severus Snape but that wasn't the case after all he can't enter Hogwarts' grounds no matter what. He won't be able to enter the Wards even if he tried. I will hunt him later, I was in no hurry.

Finally, the Daily Prophet arrived, and right on the front news was the news about the death of upstanding citizen Lucius Malfoy. The whole front page was filled with tripe about how Magneto killed Lucius Malfoy a good and upstanding citizen of the society and destroyed their manor.

Only on the second page, there was some news about Narcissa's survival. Apparently, some mud was also thrown on Narcissa as she has decided to make no comments on the death of her beloved husband. She in fact looked quite indifferent when the Aurors had asked for her statement.

Well, Rita is always known to get her hands on stories or scandals she should possibly never get close to. This time she did that too as she had written the exact statements given by the now widow Lady Malfoy.

The whole room broke out in whispers and murmurs after all something like this doesn't happen regularly. The teachers didn't bother to say anything or do anything about this. I laid my eyes back on the paper that Amelia was also getting some heat from the moron Fudge as our dear old Lucy was a dear friend and advisor of the Minister. But, Amelia was also a good politician, at least it clearly seemed from her statement…

'I am really ashamed to even admit this, but I have a duty to the people of Magical Britain so I won't shy away from revealing the truth.

Last night, along with 21 other Aurors, I confronted Magneto after we arrived at the site of the crime. But, it was clear that even with the 22 of us together we were not able to get Magneto to take us seriously as I have clearly stated in the reports and all of us have returned safely except Auror John Dawlish, who was apparently knocked out by Dark Lord Magneto.

I have truly come to believe that Dark Lord Magneto can only be defeated by Harry Potter, the hero of Wizarding Britain as he had previously defeated You-Know-Who. But, we all know that our hero has left our country because of the abuse he had to go through because of Albus Dumbledore.

We all know that Albus can't defeat Dark Lord Magneto, he no longer has the power but he is clearly the reason why Harry Potter has decided to abandon Magical Britain. I sincerely hope that Harry Potter would someday forgive us for the mistake of one man who was too arrogant and blind…

That's all, Thank You'

I am sure that this article would make Amelia to be criticized by light families who were still avid supporters of Albus Bumbledork. Of course, I received regular reports of Wizengamot sessions from Nemuri, Amelia, and Sirius, who was managing both Potter and Black seats in the Wizengamot. And honestly, I was disgusted and appalled to see that still about half of Wizengamot worshipped the ground Albus Dumb-as-a-door walked on.

Yes, he was voted out of the positions of Chief Warlock of Wizengamot and Supreme Mugwump of ICW but that was only because of the public outrage. Most of the families had even openly stated that Dumbledore must have a reason to do it. Though there were some light families who blamed Albus and were angry with him, but they believed that Albus's age must be finally catching up to him. They named this as Albus's first failure and chucked it under the rug only a few months after the news of Harry Potter leaving Britain came out in the Daily Prophet.

Ruining Albus would be too much fun, no arguments there, and everyone in our Alliance agreed on that. But I had decided to wait for the right moment to strike the blow. After all, I want it to be so severe that he would be destroyed and even his memory would bring disgust to people. There was another thing I needed to take care of before I needed to take care of Albus too-many-names Fumbledore, his Phoenix. As long as he has his Phoenix I can't stop him from running away or from him arriving at unwanted places at bad times.

I wonder if I could permanently kill a Phoenix, there must be some dark wards or spells that could get rid of the problem of our resident Phoenix that was bonded with Ol Twinkles. I also needed to figure out where our dear old Headmaster was going on his late-night prowls. I needed to find out what kind of hideous plans he was brewing, after all, he was being forced into a corner and I know how someone can react when they are cornered.

I finally pulled myself out of my thoughts and looked over at the Head Table, Ol Fumbles looked like he was having a severe case of constipation after sucking a lemon drop. Ugh…!! Degusted with the thought I inflicted myself with, I facepalmed.

"You know, you should avoid Blumberins! They are really nasty creatures" Luna said to me, she was sitting exactly opposite to me. She has been happily devouring the second serving of pudding she was able to coax out of Momo.

Firstly, I had no idea what in the world were Blumberins, and secondly, I was quite sure that Luna could give me a nice explanation of the eccentric creature. Momo was also interested to know the description of these new creatures. Rumi didn't even react as she has given up long ago to figure out Luna for the sake of her sanity. Of course, Rumi never thought that Luna was crazy or insane but she found that all this extra knowledge about these eccentric creatures to be out of her understanding. Rumi reached the conclusion that Luna was gifted and stopped thinking after that.

"Luna, can you tell me what these Blumberins are?" I asked Luna who immediately got excited that I was interested.

"Well, they are small bugs that would fly around your head and give you disturbing thoughts and images. I am quite glad that you lost them" Luna said in a happy voice and went back to her pudding treat.

I was certainly disturbed by the fact that bugs flying around my head could give me disturbing thoughts and images. I looked over to Momo who just shrugged her shoulders and went back to her breakfast. I also decided to do the same, as Luna has grown up to us and we have gotten quite used to her.

The rest of the day was pretty normal until before dinner Daphne Greengrass handed me a note asking to arrange a meeting between Lady Ravenclaw and her father. From the note, I understood that she had found that there was a connection between Magneto and Ravenclaw family but she hasn't mentioned anything about that to her father. I wasn't even worried about this fact, after all, she can't even tell her father about our meeting the previous night because of the magical oath she took.

I smiled happily now that we were getting six more votes on the voting block and I along with Momo was quite sure that this would slowly bring more parties to our alliance. After all, most of the businesses were now owned by us. Yeah… even the Greengrass alliance was a surprise but I have to say that this was a good one…

[Time skip 4 Months]

It has been four months since I have killed dear old Lucy and I have to say I gained a cunning ally through this. Narcissa Malfoy was the most cunning and business-minded woman I had ever seen. And, others in our alliance completely agreed on that matter.

The alliance with Greengrass's was ironed out quite easily as they didn't ask about a lot. Their business was related to food, they had massive farms and fields supplying foods to the population of Magical Britain and some parts of Magical France. Yes, there were still some parts or some families where the food came from other sources but mostly came from the farms of Greengrass, the reason they were named Greengrass. They wanted to use our channels to minimize the transport cost so that they could maximize their profit… until now Lucius Malfoy was using whatever power he had left to oppress their business.

Apparently, they had previously used some of the businesses we have acquired to do their business but that went out of the window as those businesses were handed over to our family before we shut them down. Yes, we have started to employ workers for our businesses but it would take time to start all of them. Dear old Lucy used this chance to jump on Greengrass, but after his timely death Greengrasses happily agreed to form an alliance with us. With decided to let them have shares in those companies as long as the employees were either muggle-borns and half-bloods. As Greengrass has always been a neutral family they happily agreed with the terms.

After, sorting out the Greengrass alliance I finally decided to pay a visit to Narcissa Malfoy as Magneto. I told her my plan and her exact words were 'This is how purebloods should think. If we kill all muggle-borns and half-bloods then who would work for us? Purebloods? Ha! I told that blond ponce Lucius that I refuse to lower my standing and work as a common peasant. Did he listen? No! He went to kneel in front of a man… disgusting!!' I could only smile wryly under my mask.

Narcissa happily joined the alliance and I gave her the same deal as the Greengrass and she happily agreed though it was in a pureblood manner. Draco had tried to dissuade her by calling blood-traitor when he found out that she was joining our alliance. Narcissa just smiled and hex Draco in the Great Hall of Hogwarts. She even warned him that if he didn't give up his disgusting behavior then she would marry someone else and find some way to get rid of him. After she left, the Great Hall was completely silent until it broke out in massive roars of laughter.

Only within 4 months, Narcissa was able to make her own company through the money she had in the vaults along with the Galleons she earned in these months, and all of us in the alliance have agreed that her business was most flourishing. Because of the magical oath, I knew that she would never betray me, and from what I have seen she was really happy with her current life.

But with good and bad things come in a package. Some of the Dark families have started to oppose our every move in Wizengamot. Though they were currently unsuccessful, but they were steadily gathering supporters. Their leader was Nott Senior who had claimed the Imperius Defence like dear old Lucy and got out of trouble. He was also the most vocal against Narcissa for betraying their cause… Narcissa didn't even give him a second glance as she was happy with her current life.

Though Draco was now a joke in Slytherin House, he still had the support of Crabbe, Goyle, Parkinson, Nott, and several others as they had a similar aims. That was to attack us inside the school when no one was looking… they only met with failures but it was still annoying. I was sure that they or their fathers would pull some stunt in near future, well I will see when I cross that bridge…
