The room exceptionally quiet. Occasional water sounds from outside—infinitely amplified in this moment...
Tiger clenched the Philosopher's Stone tightly in his palm.
Ancient, powerful force instantly awakened. Visible magical ripples burst from his hand.
Like ripples spreading across a lake surface. Like fireworks blooming in the night sky. Spreading outward at alarming speed.
Every object in the room—as if given life. Gently swaying. Soft, strange radiance filled every corner of the dormitory.
Big Kitty's eyes widened in disbelief.
Slender whiskers trembled lightly. Nose slightly wrinkled. As if trying hard to sniff the Philosopher's Stone's scent.
How does he have this?
A fake?
No, definitely not a fake!
Her sleek, agile body gradually leaned forward. Claws unconsciously scratched the floor. Couldn't hide desire and greed. Anyone would become like this after seeing the Philosopher's Stone.
Setting aside the immortality that drove the world mad—
The Philosopher's Stone's "transmutation" ability was essentially unconditional material conversion.
Such ability—enough to make all alchemists and Potions Masters lose their bottom lines and conscience...
Just as Big Kitty uncontrollably walked toward Tiger—a low, pained groan squeezed from Tiger's throat. His fierce face twisted grotesquely. Veins bulged across his forehead. Big Kitty's dazed beast eyes suddenly snapped awake.
Damn it!
How dare he absorb the Philosopher's Stone!
After a moment of panic—
She hurriedly ran to the table. Bit the Magic Suppression Potion in her mouth. Against increasingly intense magical fluctuations, walked before Tiger. Ready to feed it to him at any moment...
Unlike the previous burning heat—this time the surging magic was filled with chaotic, tearing energy.
Sometimes separating and spinning. Sometimes wildly colliding.
Tiger seemed to enter some kind of turbulence. Could clearly feel himself being compressed and stretched by magic. Then returning to normal after long or instantaneous moments.
As if reality itself was distorted.
All of Hogwarts appeared in his vision. Heaven and earth flipped and spun. Twisted and changed. Rotated and inverted...
He could feel this magic's power. But simultaneously sensed chaos and unease from deep within space.
"Fuck you, Lawrence!"
"You son of a bitch!"
"I'll kill you! Damn bastard!"
"Shit! Waste!"
If Tiger remembered correctly—
Lawrence had said very clearly.
The Shelby family's first magical eruption was called "Enhancement." Second magical eruption called "Enchantment." Third magical eruption called "Forging."
But the problem was...
"What the hell does this have to do with forging!"
"Fuck! Lawrence!"
Furious, violent roars echoed through the dormitory. Venom's grotesque white eyes and fangs also surfaced on Tiger's face.
Originally Venom planned to enjoy another massage.
It never expected—
The energy surging into Tiger's body—like blades. Chopped it into dumpling filling. Then restored it the next second.
Frenzied roars rose and fell.
Even Big Kitty's ears were blown into airplane ears by the sound waves. Her originally upright cat pupils became round.
Clearly, she was stunned by the shouting.
Fortunately—the continuously outward-expanding energy ripples suddenly froze. Then violently collapsed back into the Philosopher's Stone.
Objects in the room also stopped shaking. The glow covering their surfaces gradually faded...
Tiger gritted his teeth and took a deep breath. Pain throughout his body made him involuntarily tremble several times.
However, the next second—
Energy gradually flowing from the Philosopher's Stone transformed into cold, mechanical texture. Began squeezing into Tiger's body.
Before the energy ripples could spread—Tiger viciously threw the Philosopher's Stone on the floor. As if using his last strength. His entire body powerlessly collapsed into the sofa.
"Fuck... fuck... fuck..."
Big Kitty temporarily ignored the cursing murmurs. Instead slowly lowered her head. Stared blankly at the Philosopher's Stone that rolled before her paw pads.
She even forgot to breathe.
That throw just now—like throwing her heart on the ground too. Fortunately, the Philosopher's Stone didn't shatter into eight pieces like her heart would have...
This damn beast!
Nearly insane screaming rose in Big Kitty's heart.
"THUD..."
A muffled sound erupted.
Tiger heavily rolled onto the floor. Eyes tightly closed. Completely unconscious. Venom's symbiote tissue still remained at the corner of his eye. Limply drooping by his ear.
Obviously—
Venom had also lost consciousness.
Sweat like rain soaked through his white shirt. Clung to his skin. Outlined the solid muscle lines of his chest. Vaguely displayed a beauty of strength and resilience.
Big Kitty looked at the tempting Philosopher's Stone. Then at the even more tempting Tiger. Finally reluctantly hid the Philosopher's Stone in Tiger's wardrobe...
"Let's be clear."
"It's not that I want to take advantage of you."
"But sleeping like this causes illness..."
Emerald beast eyes guiltily looked around.
After confirming Venom inside Tiger's body truly had no consciousness—smooth, soft fur gradually became transparent. Her agile beast body also stretched and extended...
Magic Suppression Potion slowly flowed into Tiger's lips and teeth.
Until the last drop.
Gemma Farley slowly stood up.
Cold, proud eyes looked down at the robust figure on the floor. A slight disdainful snort squeezed from her nose.
Though her face carried some unwillingness—those slightly upturned red lips still inadvertently revealed a trace of barely concealed secret joy.
"Wingardium Leviosa."
Pale fingertips slightly lifted. Tiger's body also floated into midair. Slowly drifted toward the washroom...
The next morning—
In Potions class—
The sound of parchment slapping endlessly continued. Ron and Harry's heads nearly smoked from the hits.
Little snakes' snickering rose and fell.
After a holiday apart, Professor Snape seemed to regain happiness. Even deducted points less frequently.
After discovering Tiger's absence—
Originally angry Hermione's face filled with worry. But this time she didn't foolishly ask Professor Snape. Instead cornered Malfoy in the classroom.
Honestly—
Draco truly didn't know where Tiger was. He hadn't held the position of personal hand towel for quite a while.
He glared at Hermione in exasperation.
Quite the "go ahead and kill me if you dare" spirit.
However, the Shelby family most appreciated this spirit. Whether allies or enemies.
Seeing Hermione pull out her pink butterfly knife—Theodore, who'd finished packing his textbooks, spoke quietly:
"Father should be resting in his dormitory. During morning training, Prefect Burst said he was sick..."
Before he finished speaking—Hermione vanished from the Potions classroom. Didn't even take her textbook.
Draco cursed while straightening his collar.
How is this damn lioness so strong!
Time quickly came to afternoon.
Inside the prefect's dormitory—
Tiger gradually regained consciousness. The sweet, slightly bitter scent of acorns lingered at his nose. He slightly turned his head to look.
Hermione was hugging his arm. Dozing at the bedside. Lips still carried a victorious, joyful smile.
Big Kitty crouched not far away. Eyes unfriendly as she watched Miss Chipmunk. Tail swishing loudly.
The dormitory also in complete chaos. As if attacked by bandits. Tiger looked at the claw marks and scorch marks on the walls. Gradually fell into thought.
So...
Why did the chipmunk fight the cat?
