Orion slowly entered the hut, making sure that there was nothing suspicious there, although he absorbed all the magic in the area but magic is not the only thing that can be dangerous.
Looking around he only found a small area inside, there is hardly any space to hide something.
"Find then time for the treasure hunt," There was a devious smile on Orion's face.
Extending his hand, he started moving everything around, there were many magical signatures in here, but it was hard to pinpoint the one he was looking for.
Took him some time but with the help of Force, he soon found the one thing which he was looking for.
[I guess this is it,] Merlin looked at the box Orion was holding. Out of all the dark magic here, the connection with dark magic in this is the strongest.
"I too guess so," Orion said with a smile and opened the box.
And inside he found an expensive-looking ring, it was golden with a back stone embedded on top of it.
"Jack Pot,"
[No, don't touch it, you know what it did to Dumbledore,]
"I know, I know,"
Orion slowly extended his finger and Force acted with his will. Soon the Ring started to float as he let go of the box.
[What are you doing ?] Merlin asked as he saw Orion not directly putting the ring in his pendant. He raises his other hand and with Force grabs onto the stone itself.
'Of course, I am removing the resurrection stone from the cursed Horcruxe.'
And after putting some force, snap out the stone from the ring. Without even thinking further he put the ring in his pendant but the deadly hallow was still floating in front of him.
"You never said what will happen if I absorb a Deadly Hallow. I remember you said that this was created by death with the law of death or something like that".
[You are still not strong enough to absorb magic related to Law. It can be dangerous. And yes deadly hallow are cursed items so by death herself. Don't try to use it in any way or form] Merlin sounded serious.
Orion though is sceptical, his technique was never given to him by Merlin, he was only listening to Merlin in the absorption case because he knew better than him about magic. He personally believes that he can just absorb it without many issues. But still, he will do what Merlin said.
"Fine but I will be taking that power, sooner or later," Orion said as he put even the resurrection stone back in his pendent.
"Alright, now time to get out of here, but before that. I better erase all the evidence," Orion mutters but Merlin could swear Orion just wanted to destroy things.
Getting out of the hut, he raised his hands up as fire came to life on top of his palm.
[Hey!! when did you learn this] Merlin asked in surprise seeing the fireball forming on top of Orion's palm.
"Oh this, this is nothing hard. It's just like how you told me earlier. I just needed to make my intent clear and add magic and magic will do the rest. I am doing the same here." Orion said as he brought forth another fireball on his other hand.
He was controlling the fire excellently as the fireball was just hovering one inch above his palm but not touching him, not burning him and moving as he moved his hand. Merlin was honestly impressed.
Then Orion brings both of his hands together while facing towards the hut in a sideway direction.
"Kamehame.....
----
-Diagon Alley-
"Ah that hit the spot," Orion uttered as he finished another serving of food. He was currently in Leaky Cauldron. The first thing he asked for was food and this time around he was paying for it. His business was looking good and to pay back for all the help Tom, the owner of the bar had given him, he decided to pay for his meals and room from now on and also gave good money to him to renovate the bar.
[How can you eat like this, we were this close to a forest fire all thanks to you, idiot] Merlin shouted.
So back in the forest, while Orion was playing with fire, he ended up burning more than just the hut. Good thing that he was later able to put the fire out otherwise the entire forest would be history by now.
'Oh come on, I said I am sorry, didn't I? And I put the fire out as well. Give me some break would ya,' He drank another glass of butter beer.
[Anyway so what the plan for Christmas] Merlin asked as he sat down opposite to Merlin, usually he stayed in his small chibi version and stayed beside Orion all the time.
In fact, nowadays, Orion had hardly seen Merlin coming back to his normal self.
"You are much more impressive when you are this size, Gandalf," Orion said as Merlin looked exactly like Gandalf from the Lord of the Rings movies.
[I will take that as a compliment, now tell me what are you planning.] Merlin asked and there was a smug look on Orion's face. He slowly started to learn how to hide his thoughts in front of this old man.
"It's simple enough, Today I will do nothing and just rest. That left me with 6 more days.
I will mostly look after my own business, break into Gringotts and take that bloody cup and while I'm at it, maybe also absorb that dragon down there. Attend the Christmas party at Daphne's house and while I'm at it, I will also see what exactly her is sister facing. Without knowing the problem I can't fix it now can I," Orion said.
[Hmm okay, so that will be a task for you. Go and find what has happened to that little girl and cure her, the time limit is before Hogwarts starts again.]
" Hey one minute...., didn't you hear me, I will meet her only at Christmas time. That the last day of vacation, you expect me to pull out a cure for her out of my ass in that spot. I demand more time," Orion said firmly.
[Oh really, and here I thought I would finally start to teach you the Law of Space. Very well then I guess you just don't value the knowledge coming from this old man. Oh boy...youngsters in my time used to be so diligent.....] Merlin said coly as was planning to continue but Orion interrupted.
"Okay okay stop,..." Orion interjected with an irritated look on his face. Right now he was fighting against his greed and his lazy self.
No doubt Merlin doesn't want him to be lazy, this damn old man just can't see him in peace. He looked at the old man who was checking out a busty woman sitting a little further and his eyes twitched.
'I want to rest, but this is my chance to finally learn Space Law. I will have to work like a corporate slave if I try to find a cure for that girl under this week but Space magic. Damn, Merlin, he knows I want to cosplay Gojo and now is taking advantage of that...'
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Fine, I will do it," Orion said with a sigh, ultimately the greed won.
[Tck, I knew he would fall for it. Boy you are not even 100 of my age, you are just too young to deal and negotiate with me hehehehehehe]
