Since Dantalion accidentally caused magic, Lucius is eager to initiate him into learning magic, starting with potions, broomstick flying and magical theory, so Dantalion's learning ability endeared them, his quick understanding soon overwhelmed Lucius, who opened hand teaching him personally, hiring tutors in areas such as Occlumency, in the meantime he decided to leave him free to research and explore magic on his own.
As in his past life magic did not exist, Dantalion, who was already considered an excellent student, had this feature expanded, from an early age, as soon as he showed that he could read, he has been immersed in the immense family library, enriching his knowledge with comprehensive subjects such as spells, shapeshifting, herbalism and especially the unpopular ancient magic, alchemy can also be found in the Malfoy library, albeit in a sparse form. The value of a magic book is inestimable, especially the old ones, which contain family spells or family magic specialties, this is the fundamental heritage of a pureblood wizard's family.
Currently Dantalion's favorite books are history, through historical documents, in the library's collection, he can understand more deeply what is the magical world, its customs and habits, this world is not just the savior Harry Potter and his friends , or Lord Voldemort and his followers, there are all kinds of magical people and places, such as the Egyptian magicians who were based on pyramids and were experts in creating magical artifacts and breaking curses, there were Japanese magicians who had advanced knowledge in magic of dissimulation, which was passed from family to family, and until today remained a national secret. However, what left Datalion confused with the Malfoy library was, as a family that supports the dark lord, why did his library not have books on dark magic?
The pure-blood families, especially the Sacred 28, have an incomparably ancient history, the true heritage of these families is not reflected in battle strength, but in the monopoly of the economy of the magical world, these families possessed the lucrative industries, as well as political influence. and great magical secrets. For example the Ollivander family, has a history of 2 thousand years, holding control of the secret of making magic wands, to create wealth and monopolizing a third of the wand industry, the secret behind the creation of wands is thus the most precious treasure of this family.
Dantalion knew that in a few years Voldemort would return, and he would need to protect himself and at the same time guard his family, he needed to use every minute to increase his strength, so he spent almost all of his time absorbing the knowledge available in the library. At the age of 5, after much persuasion and a little manipulation he convinced Dobby to tell him where the family heirloom books were kept, after much insistence he convinced Dobby to help him sneak into Malfoy's secret room.
Apparating into the secret room, which was hidden and protected by heavy protective magic, it was impossible to enter without the correct spells of correct unlocking, but witch magic has a loophole, especially in pure blood houses, they do not pay attention to the magic of creatures that are inferior, like house-elves, that's why Dantalian can trust and sneak around with Dobby.
The ceiling of the secret room was hung with some skulls emitting a strange fluorescence, which filled the dark room with dim light, rows of shelves can be seen on the four walls, on them strange objects that are full of traces of black magic, there are skulls, daggers, strange masks with rust, there was no description attached to the items, Dantalion moved cautiously in the small space of the closet, tried to avoid accidentally touching the items.
As his father was a former Death Eater, Dantalian was sure these items definitely had dark magic, among the vast array of objects, one of them looked familiar to him, an ordinary diary with a black cover, the name Tom Riddle was written on it , Dantalion knew it was the first Horcrux, produced by Voldemort, but with his current strength it was better not to touch it.
Dantalion hurried past this black magic item and arrived at the corner dedicated to book storage, the books were old with worn covers with half-erased and almost unrecognizable words, he chose 3 of them, "Dark Potion", "Armand Volume 1" and " Fallen Creatures". These three books look very old from the outside, and even their contents are written in ancient language, one of them, had a secret compartment, Armand Volume 1, in it Dantalion found a secret spell inherited by the direct descendants of the Malfoy family, asking Dobby to copy it. everything, since not being 11 years old, he still didn't have a wand.
Dantalion was about to leave, but inevitably caught a glimpse of an old dusty hourglass in a corner, if it weren't for his magic eyes, which saw a small fluctuation in the hourglass's power, he wouldn't have seen it. In the magical world items like pocket watches and hourglasses hardly emit magical fluctuations, this can only mean one thing - this item must have some kind of time magic! Excitedly, he packed up the hourglass and took it away. After carefully disposing of any traces that had been there, he withdrew with Dobby.
The hourglass was a time converter, one of the first samples produced in the Middle Ages. Time magic is one of the most mysterious fields of magic, it had rules that, if not followed, would bring terrible consequences. so Dantalion used it to go back a maximum of 1 hour a day, used for reading and apprehending, similar to what Hermione did in her third year.
Although there are no limits to the number of times the hourglass can be used, overuse is still a burden on the body, therefore Dantalion turned the hourglass only 4 times a day. There were hundreds of books in the library, but with the help of the Hourglass of Time, he finished them at the age of 9, thus having theoretical knowledge difficult for an ordinary person, as for the three "borrowed" books, Dantalion did not intend to read them yet, because Dark magic books usually carried dangers, and would no doubt be reckless with his current strength, as for Malfoy family magic, although he hadn't practiced it yet, he already had the details and steps of the spell in his mind.
Now that he had nothing to do, he decided to play Quidditch with his brother.
