Steven entered the kitchen and saw the nervous house elves. They're ordered by professors to report if a student appears here afterall. Steven asked one of them," binny? Where is binny? ", a house elf appeared and asked," what can binny do for you sir? ".
Steven said," I want food. Puffs, meat and some juice not the pumpin juice but any other. And some fruits along with nuts ", the house elf binny said," are you having a party sir? ", Steven said," no, I'm hungry. Give me enough food to eat that's enough".
The house elves nodded and started their work. Steven sat beside and closed his eyes. He is planning next moves. The chamber, the basilisk corpse. He needs that, he isn't going to leave even a single one of things, he is going to steal the basilisk corpse along with the Griffyndoor sword in order to take it to his advantage.
As for plans of Dumbledore, who cares. They ridiculed him for three years and even abandoned him. Why should he help them? Hermione when approached coldly replied for him to stay away from her. Everyone he sought help from or approached to become a friend saw him as a trash. So why should he help them?
Steven isn't going to provoke trouble now that he is strong. But he will rather do things in the shadows and won't sit still when someone insulted him like before. He isn't going to actively involve but he will take some pieces off, so the protagonist will have a hard time. As Steven is making plans Binny arrived and said," sir, the food you asked has been prepared sir ".
Steven looked at the prepared food and took it in a package. Then he thanked the house elves with a smile that made them ecstatic. He left the kitchen and arrived at the room of requirement. This became his solace and isolation during the last three years.
Steven ate the food leisurely in the room of requirement and asked for a room to sleep. A luxurious room appeared. Although it looked somewhat medieval compared to the dormitories. Steven slept that day with relief rather than frustrated and furious like he usually does.
The next day he woke up, he again checked if it's a dream or not. Seeing his system and the powerful magic, he smiled. He got back to the dormitory and changed into Hogwarts student robes. Steven ate his breakfast and saw the twins looking at him with a smile. His eyes shined a bit and suddenly the twins groaned in pain.
They touched their crouches and ran off from the great hall, but halfway some water dropped from their pants and they ran off in embarrassment amidst the laughter. Steven felt a little better seeing this. He then looked at Malfoy and his followers then did the same thing.
This abnormality will be undoubtedly pinned on him. But who cares, he didn't use his wand. As lnngas you can't prove who is responsible no one can punish him. That is the school rule, Steven finished his breakfast and left the great hall and headed straight to the charms class.
Soon, the time of triwizard tournament. He is going to make some of his moves here. He wanted to see what will Dumbledore's expression will be when he has additional headaches about the saviour who will be orchestrated by everyone and being pranked everyday. Maybe he will let Harry release some water from his pants during the photoshoot.
That sounds okay. Fillius Flitwick looked at him and said," ah, Mr Rodrick. Shall we continue the talk about your delay cast imrpvements before the students arrive? ", if there is anyone who treated him better than others, it's Flitwick alone. Steven read the theory many times and refereenced so many books. Even Hermione pales in comparison to him when it comes to that.
He once chatted with Flitwick who seems him like any other student. After a few suggestions about some improvements and adding enchanting magic on the objects, Flitwick continued to chat with him whenever he has time and gives him advice along with the plausibility of the method.
They even published a paper on the variants of the enchantment on many things. Delay enchantment, and conditional enchantment is one of them. Delay enchantment is like a time bomb but the blast is replaced by a spell. Conditional enchantment is when certain action is performed to give the set result to it.
The conditional enchantment is present since ancient times. But in the current era it disappeared. Their paper was a hit back then and even charms magazine published it. Naturally this caused envy from the Slytherin and scorns from Griffyndoor not believing he can do it.
But he didn't care anymore. He started the think about loop casting too. Artifacts and enchantment is a good business now. Broomsticks are one example of that, if he can create weapons with the loop casting he is thinking about. Then it'll be a huge hit and he can gain wealth along with fame too.
Steven and Flitwick are chatting while the students arrived one after another. Looking at Steven, Griffyndoor students ignored him. As for Slytherin, they cast a glance with disdain on him. At this time, Steven brought a topic," professor, if I say maybe this conditional and loop casting that combined with some runes can allow me to do magic when the runes are engraved on body. Do you believe it?".
Flitwick said," it's indeed possible. But involves high risk. Carving runes into your skin to enhance power of spells is a bad idea though. It can overload your core and explode it if not careful. Your meridians and paths that carry magic may get damaged ".
Steven nodded and said," that's a possibility but if we carve the runes that involves just enhancing the spell power and involves absorbing magic from surroundings to do this task instead of creating another path to the core through runes. It's possible isn't it? ".
Flitwick said," yes but this involves many risks. Ambient magic isn't your own. The ambient magic have other energies mixed in it. It's not very suitable for a wizard's body. It can lead to some unfortunate circumstances if not careful ".
Steven nodded while other students also started joining. Steven took his seat while Flitwick started his lesson. Steven heard the lesson while Draco threw a paper at him. It flew like a bird when Flitwick didn't see and reached Steven. Steven opened it. Inside is a drawing which shows Draco is casting a spell while Steven is begging for mercy.
Steven looked at him and Malfoy suddenly felt his hit on his head. Someone in Slytherin shouted fire, Malfoy screamed and tried putting off the fire. Flitwick cast an aguamenti on Draco drenching in water. Smoke erupted leaving Malfoy's burnt hair while he ran off.
Steven looked back and saw Hermione narrowing her eyes at him. He looked at her coldly and turned to his book.
