Chapter 198 - 198. High Time
May 15,
It was a normal day for Hogwarts and its dwellers. The students were busy studying, teachers were busy teaching. Magnus was busy training and Severus was busy experimenting.
All were doing whatever they liked.
But, in a certain potions lab, a blonde boy was doing a very dangerous experiment. It was nearly lunchtime and he was just done with it.
"Hehe, I think it\'s a success. I will test it on Magnus now." Ragnar evilly planned.
He kept a plain face and reached the great hall. He purposefully sat beside Magnus. "How is your training going?"
Magnus became alert, looking at his face, he felt threatened, "What are you planning?"
Ragnar\'s mouth twitched, ~This guy... his instincts are really strong.~
"Hehe, nothing, my brother. I was just asking about your day, since I had a very successful experiment today." Ragnar replied.
Magnus nodded and started telling him, "Well, my training is good. As long as I can continue this for a few years I think I will become unbeatable. What about you?"
"Nothing, just trying to make a previous potion much more effective. Ah, here, why don\'t you have my pancakes too." Ragnar forced his plate on him.
Magnus paused, "Hmm, do you think I am a fool? That I would not see through your schemes? You are trying to test your potion on me, right?"
*BAM*
He threw the plate away. "AH!"
But Ragnar also lost balance and fell down on his back from the bench. It did not hurt him, but as he tried to get up, right in front of his eyes, a small vial slowly slid down his pants pocket and fell down.
To him, it was all happening in slow motion. "NOOOooooo..."
*CRACK*
The vial broke on contact. Green fumes rose from it and immediately spread around the whole great hall. Magnus immediately stopped inhaling and also put his hand on the nose.
"HAHAHAHA!" Ragnar, who was the closest to it and the most affected, started laughing.
Magnus wondered what happened. "Was it a laughing potion?"
*BAM*
Emma all of a sudden jumped onto his back, "AH! You\'re so warm, Magnus. Oh, your hair smells good, let me bite them,"
"I\'m gonna go and confess to Lily." Severus got up.
There was mayhem all around him. He looked at the broken vial and had a bad premonition, "DON\'T TELL ME, this is the same thing that made him high that time."
He looked around. Some students from Gryffindor were dancing on the table. Some were fighting, some were singing. Ravenclaws students were fighting over some stupid question. Hufflepuffs were chilling in their seats, watching everyone else and laughing. Slytherin was a mix of them all.
He turned to the teachers. "This is bad, they\'re affected by this too."
Magnus quickly cast a bubblehead charm. It was a charm that produced a bubble around the head of the caster, giving them a continuous supply of oxygen, allowing them to breathe where they could not otherwise.
A protective bubble formed around Magnus\' head and he finally took a long breath.
"Oh boy, Ragnar\'s getting a big detention after this." He muttered.
"UMMMAH UMMMAH... You smell so good."
Magnus quickly forced Emma away from his back and put a stunning charm on her.
He looked at Dumbledore, the old man seemed to be barely holding it. His physical body was fighting the potion. Magnus quickly cast a bubblehead charm at him too.
"MAGNUS! I demand a duel. A duel of fate. The loser dies." Evan Rosier, a 6th year shouted. He was a member of the Gang of Slytherin.
Magnus facepalmed himself, "Stop wasting my time, you dunderhead."
*BAM*
He didn\'t use any spell. It was just a raw powerful slap on the face. Evan Rosier directly passed out and fell face first, breaking his nose.
"YOU! I WILL KILL YOU TODAY!" The other lackeys also came.
*SLAP* *SLAP* *SLAP* *SLAP*
He slapped all of them into oblivion. They would probably not even remember their names for a day after waking up.
The only ones left now were Narcissa and Regulus. Narcissa was not interested it seemed, she was currently using her knife and fork, stabbing them on the table and cursing Lucious for not contacting her in a while.
Regulus just sat there, looking at Sirius, crazily dancing on the Gryffindor table without his robes and shirt.
"Thank god he went away," Regulus muttered. Of course, he didn\'t mean it. Because his next words made Magnus roll in laughter.
"I can dance better than that."
...
Magnus put all the kids to sleep who were dangers to themselves. The only ones left now were those who were high and sitting in their chairs, chilling, mostly Hufflepuff. The other ones were the Ravenclaws who were arguing with the walls now. He had to put all Gryffindors to sleep though. They had too much energy.
There were a lot of girls too, they were chasing him around, trying to confess or touch him. The Slytherins were also mostly down, as many of them were having crazy ideas of doing something destructive.
Severus was though tied to a chair, he was trying to confess to Lily, but Lily was trying to chase after him and he had to put her down. Severus wanted to fight him due to this.
After hard work, he finally took a seat, tired from all the work. "OLD MAN! I know you are fine now."
Dumbledore took a sip of the wine from his table, looking at the utter mess of the great hall. "This is going to be in the news tomorrow."
"Hmm, just tell the truth, it was an accident. I will tell the papers not to push it too much." He replied.
"I think this is the time you call the elfs and tell them to send them to their dorms," Magnus suggested.
And so, slowly the elfs arrived and helped to send everyone away. The hall was then cleaned with magic. Later, Magnus looked at Ragnar snoring on his bed, he felt an urge to smack him.
*BAM*
Chad did it. He liked playing with sleeping Ragnar since he slept like a dead horse. And maybe Chad had the fetish of slapping sleeping Ragnar now.
"This was not how I expected my day to go," Magnus muttered to himself and rested on the bed.
"HAHA... this was the funniest incident I have ever witnessed in the school," Merlin spoke from the wall.
"Absolutely, particularly the duels on Gryffindor table were great," Arthur added.
"They were duelling with spoons, there was nothing glorious in that." Merlin barked back at him.
Magnus ignored them and went to sleep. The whole school was sleeping right now, even though it was not the time for bed.
...
The next day,
"WHAT?! 1-week detention? It was just an accident." Ragnar got his gift the next day.
Slughorn could not help his favourite potions student, "I\'m afraid you have to accept this punishment. You did cause a big problem yesterday."
"True, and I had to clean up the mess," Magnus grunted.
Ragnar looked at Magnus thankfully, "Hehe, thank you, my brother. Won\'t you join me on the boring detention?"
Magnus\' face stayed plain, "No, and you will surely have Sirius and James there every once in a while."
The detention only meant that Ragnar would have to spend even the free classes in the detention room. He can only go to his dorm after all the classes end.
Magnus ignored him and went away. These were Ragnar\'s own fruits of hard work.
...
London,
Grace and Adam didn\'t really act as if their lives had changed. They were still busy with their careers and each other. Adam was busy finalising the designs of the cars. On the other hand, he was looking into companies who wanted to contract his patents so they could produce the batteries.
Grace was busy with her daily life. The operations were tough to do and her everyday life was filled with something new. The stent she had developed was already a hit in the market. But they still hadn\'t reached peak popularity.
However, there was a problem. Unlike magical Britain, Magnus did not own or control any muggle media houses here. So, they were more likely to talk bad about him and he wouldn\'t even know it as he stays disconnected from the muggle side.
Currently, for some reason, a few local news channels and newspapers had started saying that Adam and Grace were not being serious with their royal duties. They did not attend any royal or important dinners/events as of yet.
It had already been 5 months since they were announced. The news was purposefully finding ways to call them fake royals or such things, trying hard to discredit them. At a single glance, it was obvious someone was purposefully doing this. And it was about time Magnus\' assistant reported this to him. As it concerned his own image and future plans.
