Potter Mansion

'Man what's wrong with this kid.' Nymphadora stood there in awe as she watched Harry practice magic from the Black Family Library. 

Harry was quickly getting the hang of the spells. After one or two tries the spell was completely mastered. 

'How is he wielding Dark Magic so easily' 

Harry on the other hand was getting bored, he was blasting apart training dummies with ease 'Man, with Voldie's memories and my natural talent, spells are just too easy. I'm practically relearning these, Voldemort has learned some of them through Bellatrix and Regulus.'

Harry twisted his wand and the dummy's head exploded, then the chest, then the stomach. 

'Well that's enough spells for today. What was next on my agenda? Studying more about Peverell Magic i guess. Soul magic is tricky. I'm always extra careful when i use it or experiment with it. 

Hogwarts will be starting soon. Can't wait to see all of the things hidden in that Castle. 

That reminds me. I need to inform Ted to push Dumbledore. He still hasn't delivered all of my items. So if he wants another extension. He is going to need to pay for it. 50kg of Phoenix Ash should do the trick' 

Harry started to laugh all of a sudden, freaking Dora out. 

'Yep. He is definitely insane. I'm out of here' she slowly backed away and went into the living room. Promising herself never to watch Harry practice ever again. 

Harry stopped laughing once he sensed that Dora had left. 'Ahhh. Messing with people never gets old. Guess I'll just improve my poisons. I need to catch a few stray devils to experiment on them. There are pretty much Zero Devils here. Mostly due to the FuckFest of all of the different factions here.

The Wizards Department of Mysteries.

The Magician Community in Britain. 

Hermetic Order of The 'Golden Dawn'

The Protestant Church HQ in London. 

The Royal Family. 

The Pendragons. 

And all of them have a hate boner for Devils and Fallen. 

Stray's avoid Germany as well. Due to Grauzauberer. Literally meaning GrayWizards. Its a school founded by Johann Georg Faust and is now run by Mephisto Pheles who took over as Faust's contracted devil.

It is now one of the leading Magician associations in the supernatural world. It's focused on more occult studies and rituals. While its rival school Golden Dawn is focused on mixing magic with technology taking a modern approach on magic. It was co-founded by MacGregor Mathers who was reincarnated as a devil by Sirzechs Lucifer.

Mephisto doesn't really care about what's happening with the world as long as it doesn't involve his school. As one of the Original Devils still left alive he is quite powerful. But he by his own choice is treated as an Extra Devil. Outside the Devil Faction. He is more than enough reason for most to avoid making a scene in Germany. 

'Italy is also out. There are few devils stupid enough to go to the HQ of the Catholic Church. Guess I will go to France or Spain and see if I can find any Stray's there.' Harry mused. 

"I think I should let the world know that the Belmont's aren't as dead as many assumed. I should be able to buy some interesting stuff from the Church, if I use the Belmont's infamous 'monster hunter' reputation. It would be interesting to see how Holy Magic works" 

And with that Harry decided his next course of action.

Spain. 

'Unbelievable... why is it so freaking hard to find a decent Mid-Class devil?' Harry was sneaking around the countryside of Spain. Where some of the slums were. He was Disillusioned and Silenced his clothes and footsteps. Along with removing his sent and hiding his mana as much as he could

'I had heard of some mysterious disappearances. But all i have found were some weak Low-Class Devils. They were pathetically easy to defeat and capture. Well at least I have a few low-class devils to test my poisons on.

Though I shouldn't really underestimate Low-Class like that. All of the Wizarding world practically belongs to the Low-Class. Its an easy system to understand. Your Class is decided by how much damage you can cause. A barbaric system but it works.'

Low-Class can go from destroying a steel wall to destroying a house or two. Wizards are easily capable of that. So are most devils. Raynare the Fallen could easily do the same.'

Harry stopped as he noticed something. A small pool of blood with some shredded clothes. 'A person was eaten here. A devil, he ate every last bit. If it was a werewolf or some other creature they wouldn't have eaten the entire corpse.

A stray devil's demonic power/mana and soul were unstable. Leading them to consume humans to grow stronger and surpass their 'mutation'. There is little to no damage to the surroundings, and there is too little blood. The clothes were also shredded to make it look like rape, the mana trace was also minimal.

This is the most cautious stray i have seen. This one is capable of thinking straight to throw others off its trail and clean up after itself. Finally a Mid-Class.'

Mid-Class (Basically Akeno Level at the start of the series.)

A mid class being can easily destroy a Street Block. (So lets say around 15-20 houses. It must be casually done.)

So Dumbledore, Grindelwald, Voldemort. Mana wise they are about a bit better than Akeno. But they have a lot more experience than her and can easily beat her. All three of them can easily destroy a Street Block and still have a lot of juice left. There is a difference between throwing lighting around and carefully using mana to cast spells with minimal loss.

(A/N Akeno is a half fallen with a Queen Piece. She does have solid Mid-Class reserves. But thats it)

Those three can destroy a few Street Blocks before they run out of fuel. They are firmly in the middle level of MId-Class, possibly even higher. Grindelwald's Protego Diabolica. When he used it in Paris it was said he could have destroyed the city.

Which is false, if they just left it alone for like a week, without any interruption then the flames could at most destroy a few areas. That's what Grindelwald could do at his best, meaning he could make a High Class attack.

Affecting am entire city is just the entry Level of Ultimate Class. Destroying a City is a sign of a True Ultimate Class.

Harry was now hunting a Mid-Class Devil. Which could actually be stronger than him since he is in the beginning of Mid-Class. But that's just it. It had more mana and a stronger body. 

More mana doesn't mean automatic victory. There are many factors in a fight. Raw Power is just one. Knowledge, Body, Tools, Skills, Bloodlines and Racial Abilities. All of those things factor in a fight.

The stray understands this, otherwise it wouldn't have covered its tracks. It knows where it stands and is being careful not to draw too much attention to itself.

Harry carefully tacked the faint mana trace he had managed to pick up. The devil's energy signature.

'Skilled but not too much. He doesn't know that he can change his energy signature. Then again it really isn't fair of me. That's normally reserved for High-Class beings and only the ones who have delicate control over their own power. That's why most people in the Supernatural Black Market are High Class. It's too dangerous to enter it earlier if you can't hide your energy signature.

Being a wizard immensely helped me out when I made my own 'Brand' for Viper. It has a special energy signature that is like my Maker's Mark. So people know which of my products are not fakes.'

After 30 minutes Harry found a tiny cabin in the middle of the woods. A hunter's cabin. Harry silently casted a Revealing spell. And there were no magical traces around him. Harry walked forward when he heard a sound

Crrrr

The sound of wire.

'Shit! Hex Pro Duo' Harry quickly called out in his mind. A spherical barrier made out of hexagonal shields appeared around him

Ckk, Ckk, Ckk, Ckk, Ckk, Ckk, Ckk..

Dozens of knifes, daggers and other sharp objects came from the trees and flew at Harry only to be deflected by his barrier.

Hex Pro Duo. The original spell is Hexagon Protego Duo. Harry combined many small hexagonal protego's and fused them to make this shield. Each hexagon was dense and there were no weak spots. The Duo made the shield repel magic and non magical attacks. Naturally at a higher mana cost.

He uses these super short chants like word associations. He tricks his brain to quickly bypass the normal procedure. He knows the Original Spell might be long, so he uses short chant to associate it to the original spell. Cutting down the time. Normally he didn't need to do this as he already thinks much faster than even High Class opponents. Occlumency, MageCraft Spells and Rituals. He uses all of them to enhance his brain to think faster and better. But Harry always wants to keep pushing it. To be better.

It was exactly what allowed Harry to be calm in a situation like this.

'A mechanical trap! It has no magic whatsoever. Another thing I need to work on. A spell that can find mechanical traps, I could have blown some light wind, to make it seem like it was just nature. It would have disturbed the wires so that I can see them. I'm so fucking stupid. I wanted to take care of this quickly and quietly. Now I have to risk fighting in the open. Well we are in the forests of Spain I doubt anyone else can sense us here'

"Hoo. Someone actually found me" An amused voice came from the cabin as someone walked out. The devil was surprisingly not mutated. He was average height. Relativity good looking with long black hair, grayish skin and pointed ears.

Harry said nothing as he revealed himself. It was too late to hide. And who knows what other traps he might activate if he sneaks around.

"It was a bit tiering to track you down. You cover your tracks well" Harry replied to the man, his voice was being scrambled, so that he wouldn't be identified.

The devil raised an eyebrow "Now that I take a good look at you, you are a child aren't you? You might be covered in clothes head to toe, but your size gives you away"

Harry chuckled "Why should I hide my real age? You will be dead either way"

" I could say the same thing about you child. You can remember the name of the one who killed you. I am Merrz. Now die" the devil rushed at Harry who smirked then hissed

$Lata Ventus Diffindo Maxima$

Ventus is a spell that shoots out a jet of wind from the wand. Diffindo is a spell that severs. Combine both with Lata to widen the range and Maxima to increase the damage.

And you get a spell that shoots out air blades and wind in wide area.

Shh. Shh. Shh. Shh. Shh. Shh. Shh. Shh...

Merrz quickly made a magic circle in front of him to protect himself. Harry's wind blades didn't just attack him, the main goal was to send as many of them into the forest. Harry activated all the traps that were set. The wires were cut, anything hidden was completely blown away. The devil realized this as well.

'So he does have power to back up his claim. But no matter how strong he is, he is just a child, while I have lived for 70 years'

"TriplumOris" Harry chanted and a mouth appeared on the back of his hands.

Merrz raised his hand and two magic circles appeared on each hand. He proceeded to shoot out a few fire attacks at Harry.

Attacks that Harry blew away.

Whooosh

Meerz appeared behind harry with a dagger pointed right at his neck. Harry shivered his instincts warned him of the attack but he was too late to do anything.

CLING!!!!

A light green shield appeared behind Harry. Escudo. A shield spell that Harry recreated. It takes a long time to create a single Shield. But the beauty of this spell is that its a stand-by spell and its stackable

And it just saved Harry's life. Harry slowly turned to get a look at the devil's shocked face. Meerz shivered when he saw Harry's eyes. They were shining, looking like emerald fire.

"You will pay for that" Harry glared at the devil

Harry pointed his hand at Meerz 'Hado #31'

"S̴̫͎͗͂h̷͇͆́̍͘͜a̸̼̮̬̒͌͠k̴̺̺̑́́k̷̳̬̐͒͊ͅå̷͈̱̊͗̋h̶̛̲̿̋̂ͅo̷̧̬̐͋̂͛!" (Shakkaho)

BOOOOOOOOOM

A huge red Orb hit the devil and exploded right in his face, sending him flying.

'Fucking Knight Piece. And he specifically trained his speed. Peak Mid Class Speed. Probably, I don't have anything else to compare him to but he should be there judging by the speed he just displayed. He used the fire as a distraction and a way to hide himself from my line of sight. No more, holding back, if it wasn't for my paranoia and preparations I would have died.'

Harry used a Compound Spell to attack the Devil. Its where he weaves a few spells together and says it at the same time. in this case he combined a few Shakkaho's.

'Hado 63'

$R̸̢̜̞̆͛̂͗̎̕ã̶̧͔̭̖͈̻̅̔̐̍̌͂͝ǐ̶̛͎̦̳̮͇̭̜͒̆͐̈́̿͘͜k̸̻̦̲̟͗̈́́́ͅͅö̸̢̟̩͎̠̋̈̚ḩ̴̛͎̬̱̇͑́͂͐̕͜ò̵̺̐̀̊̚͝$ $R̸̢̜̞̆͛̂͗̎̕ã̶̧͔̭̖͈̻̅̔̐̍̌͂͝ǐ̶̛͎̦̳̮͇̭̜͒̆͐̈́̿͘͜k̸̻̦̲̟͗̈́́́ͅͅö̸̢̟̩͎̠̋̈̚ḩ̴̛͎̬̱̇͑́͂͐̕͜ò̵̺̐̀̊̚͝$ $R̸̢̜̞̆͛̂͗̎̕ã̶̧͔̭̖͈̻̅̔̐̍̌͂͝ǐ̶̛͎̦̳̮͇̭̜͒̆͐̈́̿͘͜k̸̻̦̲̟͗̈́́́ͅͅö̸̢̟̩͎̠̋̈̚ḩ̴̛͎̬̱̇͑́͂͐̕͜ò̵̺̐̀̊̚͝$ (Raikoho)

All three hands Hissed out.

BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Three Large Lightning Orbs floated around Harry, he also started to continually cast Revelio. Making it into a Radar.

Just as Merrz gathered himself and stood up

'Fire'

The lightning was released, and in a straight line flew at the devil. With his superior speed he might have dodged them, if all three weren't fired in the direction's he could have escaped. Merrz decided to take the Middle shot and let the left and right ones pass him. He created a barrier with both hands and put in in front of him.

He managed to block the middle shot, but the other two on his sides exploded in mid air, since they were away from him they didn't cause any damage but they did manage to paralyze him and stop him from moving.

Harry put his staff in front of him and started to focus. Dense mana started to gather around him.

"NO YOU DON!" Merrz struggled for his life. He raised his hand and called upon his magic circle. A water Javelin flew at Harry while he was concentrating. Merrz hoped to disrupt his focus until he could move, which he only needed a bit longer to get rid of the paralysis.

'Mirror Alice'

A large rectangular mirror with a silver frame and sapphires appeared in front of Harry and Merrz watched in horror as it absorbed the water javelin.

'A Sacred Gear' he thought before he turned to Harry who now had his eyes open.

"You deserve a lot worse than this, consider yourself lucky"

"⬛" Harry called out, it sounded like gibberish but that's because it was a hundred spells compressed at once.

FSHHHHHHHH

"A chaotic red orb flew at Merrz. "NO WAIT! PLEASE! I CAN BE OF USE! I CAN SERVE YO-"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

The explosion engulfed him and the surroundings, the shockwave alone tore apart a good chunk of the area where they were fighting.

After a few seconds it was over, and a big piece of land was destroyed

Harry looked at the crater where the Devil had perished, leaving behind a charred corpse and clicked his tongue "I need more training. This just proves how inexperienced I am at fights on my level. It's a pity I can't take his soul to burn for eternity. "

He turned to the forest and pointed his staff "Reparo!" The trees pieces and the ground started to float and return to their previous location. They mended themselves and returned to their previous form. Harry casted it a few more times and added a lot more power. Eventually the forest was repaired.

He made the corpse float and left the forest. One hour later in a town where there was plenty supernatural activity, there was a corpse left on one of the Churches. A charred behedged devil. On the charred corpse there was a piece of paper left. A crest.

The Crest of House Belmont

~A/N

What do you think of the Chapter?

I had no idea what to call the Devil. I basically called him the current month. March. In German its spelled März but spoken Merz. So yeah. Originality ZERO xD

Harry couldn't take his soul on the off chance someone notices it. His corpse was left behind on purpose.

Nymphadora means 'Beloved young girl' in Greek.

I used this chapter to give a breakdown of the Class System

Low -( Breaking a thick wall - destroying a house or two)

Mid - ( Affecting Street Block to a destroying few Blocks)

High ( Affecting City Area- to destroying a few)

Ultimate (Affecting an entre city to destroying a city, to destroying a part of the country)

Ultimate Class is a really wide term. Destroying a Country is just unofficial Satan Class.
