As soon as I left Gringotts I headed for the leaky cauldron. I've been here before but I didn't want to let Voldemort catch on to the fact that the one who can defeat him isn't ignorant or under Dumbeldores suffocating control. I rent a room for two weeks as I believe that is the minimum time it'll take for the book or the register whatever it's called to find me.
So I spend my time for once in a long while simply relaxing and improving my mindscape every night before bed. I have taken a few trips to Knockturn Alley and have found myself to be profoundly disappointed. They didn't have anything of much value that I haven't read (what Voldemort read counts) except for the cupboard and even that will be worthless to me by the end of the year. If I have to take any mastery tests right now then I would be able to ace Dark Arts, Defence Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration, Charms, Ancient Runes, and Arithmancy from Voldemorts travels alone. In fact, Voldemort was so thorough that he even had the ability to transform into multiple different animals by torturing some poor American family. Though he did lose it when he needed to stabilize his soul after creating his fifth Horcrux. I still haven't gone through the process though if only because the requirement is 15 years old at the very least and I'm not going to fuck up my chance at godhood because I was impatient.
So I indulged myself and waited for the waste that is Hogwarts school life.
Time Skip - 2 weeks
I finish up Breakfast with a little Quirellwatching and immediately head up to my room before the large magical signatures got here.
Five minutes later I found myself staring at Hagrid, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, Minera McGonagall, and Dumbeldore holding my letter. Before I can even say anything all of them walk into my apartment for the next few days. "...Well to what do I this pleasure?" I snark to Dumbeldore.
Dumbeldore ignores me in favor of continuing to look around trying to figure out something from my apartment.
"Harry...you look just like James?" Remus says with Sirius nodding in the background looking awkward.
"Whatever you say. But back to the more pressing matter...Who the fuck said you could come in?"
Everyone there looks slightly shocked but Dumbeldore seemed to take it in stride with his wand still out he approached me. "Harry my boy. Where is this anger coming from?" 'Ah here we go with the, 'you're going dark my boi' routine.' "You have not identified yourselves and barged into my home, have been sifting through everything you could get your grubby paws on, and now you're over here acting like you're Gods' gift to humanity. Should I continue or go about the far more logical route of calling some Aurors." Dumbledore frowned a little but had his grandfatherly facade back up in no time.
"Now, Now Harry there's no need to get dif-"
"Yes, there is. Now give me my letter and leave or I swear to God I will shove my foot where the sun doesn't shine." Dumbledore put on his disappointed face and I looked at him in eyes with annoyance. Then I felt a slight probe on my mental defenses originally I would have let him in to see me living in a gloomy house with an elf but now I can hold something over him.
*Inside the mind Scape*
I Shoved him on a planet resembling earth but hella high-tech with elements of Xandar, Star wars, and regular earth. Then I locked him in and had hordes of zombies, animals, and anything I could think of attacking him. I then forced our mindscapes to connect with a thin film to make sure nothing from my realm drifted into his. His defense was the standard traps within traps that I simply phased through. Once I managed to get to the fighting section of his library I took out a book which activated a horde of magical animals to come and attack. I ignored their attempts and started copying most of the books forcing them into a flash drive before doing the same with his knowledge on alchemy. When I got back I found Dumbeldore being overwhelmed by the hordes. I looked through his memories absorbing the useful tidbits and before shoving him out of my mind.
*Outside the mindscape*
Dumbledore was starting to look rather sick. "Don't try that again or I'll destroy you," all with a pleasant smile on my face.
Dumbledore puts the act back up continuing his disappointment and handing me my letter while signaling his posy to follow him.
I snort a little in disdain before checking myself and everything around me for tracking and listening charms. I do an Overpowered finite and get rid of the powerful ones still lingering on me personally. The manipulative bastard.
I open the letter to see the list of things I need to buy which is more a waste of money than anything else. "Hobby"
"Yes Harry"
"Buy these materials, and use the old trunk with the minor extension charm to store them."
"Yes, Harry," and with that, he popped away.
"Tipsy," *pop*"take me to the place," and we appeared in l
Now that Voldie is possessing Quirrell I need to collect the Hallow, Diary, and Locket Horcruxes before I get to Hogwarts.
I walk forward to the little shack constantly chanting the password to be let in. When I finally make it to the door I take a few minutes to bring down the rest of the wards without alerting the caster. When I come in I hear the ring trying to tempt me but I could care less about bringing back the dead. I easily broke the compulsion, levitating the ring into a little box to isolate it. I conjured a permanent replacement before reerecting the wards around the property just in case while ordering tipsy to keep a rotational watch and alert me if anyone approaches the property before I make it to School.
I have her move me about a mile away. "Dobby."
"The great Harry Potter Sir has called for Dobby!!! Harry Potter is a great wizard knowing everything...."
As much as I liked to stroke my ego this was going a little overboard. "DOBBY!! Calm down."
He noticeably dimmed but waited to hear why I called him. "Dobby how would you like to work for me?"
"Dobby...work for the great Harry Potter Sir?"
"..."
"Absolutely!!!.... But Dobby is still a Malfoy elf. Dobby cannot work for the great Harry Potter Sir."
"Don't worry I have a solution for that but quick question if your owner throws some clothing at you would you be considered free?"
"Yes," I would love to go on a house-elf hunting spree but that's just unrealistic cause they drain a good portion of magic, there is a reason why most Hogwarts elves are bound to the school.
"Then Dobby I would like you to go to the Malfoy Manor and bring me a leather-bound book with metal cuffs on the opening edges. Do you think you can do that for me?"
"Yes, Master Harry."
*pop*
A few minutes later he came back with the diary Horcrux in hand and a triumphant smirk holding a sock.
"Well then do you accept to being my house-elf," I said taking the book from him and shoving it in another container.
"Yes sir."
"Hobby," *pop* "Dobby is my new house-elf show him the ropes."
Now time for the harder one. "Kreacher."
"..."
"KREACHER!!"
"What half-blood filth ca-"
"You had a task from your master Regulus to destroy the locket that you both retrieved from the cave correct?" At this, he looks shocked, fearful, and ashamed. Slowly he nods his head in answer to my question.
"Your master wanted you to destroy this locket so that the owner would lose their immortality and be mortal once more. But there is one thing that your master didn't know and that is that owner had multiple items like the locket to keep him immortal. Even know that man walks the earth by forcefully possessing a different being. Give me the locket and I can guarantee you that it will be destroyed by the end of this year."
"Why can't you destroy it right now?"
"That's because destroying it might alert the owner so I want to destroy all of them in one go so that they won't have a chance to stop it or create another one with me trying to actively kill them. Do you understand?" Kreacher pops away and comes back a few seconds later with the locket in hand.
I store away the Horcrux before obliviating the poor elf, can't have him telling anyone about me after all. I have Hobby pop me back into my room in the leaky cauldron to pay for next month's stay.
