Chapter 15 - Hogwarts

" sorry about that. Lost control there for a second. I won't tolerate insults to my family ", Damain said with a sigh. He made a mess, but he is 90% sure that Draco Malfoy won't tell anyone. Because he will be laughing stock in his pure blood community if he says that.

Harry and Ron looked at him warily and with strange expressions while Damain blinked and said," why are you looking at me like that? ", Ron said," it's just your method of beating Draco is a little too much don't you agree? ".

Damian said," I agree I may have gone a little overboard. I won't tolerate him calling and cursing my mother that casually. I hate these guys who blabbers about their blood most and look down on everyone else ".

Ron sighed and said," then you should just stay away from Slytherin students in Hogwarts. It's best to ignore them. My father warned us not to make any trouble for them. They held power in ministry, has so much wealth amassed in last few centuries and they're very intolerant to others especially whom they will doesn't deserve magic ".

Damian understood. These kids have families that held both influence and wealth to manipulate scenes and make him miserable. But that Malfoy boy will have to pay for what he said. Harry said," you need to be careful Damian. They are more like bullies. You should watch out for them. No offense but you looked like a bully yourself when you're beating Malfoy ".

Damian just took out his book and started reading ignoring the comment Harry made. As the train travelled to Hogsmeade, they got out in robes. As Damian got out of the train, he saw Hagrid, walking towards them with a big oil lamp. Hagrid yelled," first years follow me. First years follow me. Hi, Harry ".

" Hello Hagrid ", Harry greeted back with a smile. Ron exclaimed seeing Hagrid's big personality," woah ", Damain just stood there looking at Hagrid.

[ Name : Rubeus Hagrid ]

[ Age : 62 ]

[ Gender : Male ]

[ Race : Half-Giant ]

' hmm, nothing's changed with the eyes of truth skill. I thought it might level up but it seems it'll take quite a bit of time for that ', Damain thought.

As he followed Hagrid to the pier, they boarded boats there that are self moving. As the boats moved on the river, Hagrid suddenly yelled," duck ", alll students ducked including Damain. But the roof is too big to hit their heads. Maybe Hagrid will get hit, but they won't get hit while sitting on the boat.

As they left the cave, they saw an amazing view of Hogwarts. Damian saw many took out their magimirrors and taking photos. He envied them, he can't buy a magimirror yet. He needs resources and money to buy one. Clenching his fist, he looked at the castle ahead.

' I need to find the room of requirement as soon as possible ', Damain thought. He asked Aberforth about this but Aberforth didn't tell him anything about the room of requirement. That's when a question popped up.

[ Quest : Find the room of requirement before the end of first year ]

[ Duration : 9 months ]

[ Reward : Complete information about the Room of Requirement ]

Damian is fired up to find this room of requirement. They reached the other end of the pier. As they got out of the boat, they encountered the big stairs. Each step almost reached the height of their thighs, all first years begrudgingly climbed them amidst the dirt, mud and rain water. Some fell down but they didn't rolled down the stairs, instead like a spell casting on them, they stayed on the same step.

Though their uniforms became dirty. No wounds are on their bodies. Many first years started complaining about this. As they reached the big door of Hogwarts, Hagrid clenched his fist and knocked on it three times. The door opened revealing Argus Filch who is rotating the wheel which is opening the big door to Hogwarts.

They followed Hagrid and reached a stair case which made them grumble remembering the pain they gone through for that. Just then, suddenly two people appeared in the back of the crowd. No one noticed them except Damian. Obscurus although made his life short and miserable allowed him to have a high sensitivity to mana.

He instantly detected them. He just stared at them for a second with the eyes of truth.

[ Name : Iris Lushvile ]

[ Age : 11 ]

[ Gender : Female ]

[ Race : ???? ]

[ Name : Aurora Redwood ]

[ Age : 11 ]

[ Gender : Female ]

[ Race : ???? ]

They look like normal humans but something about them is quite different, their race is definitely not human and something is concealing that, he thinks it's either an artifact or a special magic. They looked at him with a frown while Damain turned back. One of them smiled a little looking at Damian.

Hagrid brought them to McGonagall and said," Professor McGonagall, the first years ma'am ", McGonagall nodded and said," thanks Hagrid. I'll take it from here ", Hagrid nodded and walked away. McGonagall looked at them sternly and said," welcome to Hogwarts, now before taking you to the grand hall, I like make a few things clear. Hogwarts has four houses, Gruffyndoor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin ".

Some students whispered words in low hushes. McGonagall continued and they became silent," you'll be sorted into one of the four houses. in your stay at Hogwarts, your house is like your family. Your triumphs earn your points while your mischief and misdeeds will deduct them. At the end of the year, the house with the most points wins the house cup ".

" Trevor ", Neville yelled and grabbed the toad at the feet of McGonagall who gave him a stern look.

He trembled and said," sorry ", before running back into the crowd. Many giggled looked at the clumsy boy. Damian on other hand is curious how they are going to sort them into a suitable house.

" I'll be back in a couple of minutes. Meanwhile don't make noise and tidy up yourselves to appear more presentable ", she said while eying Ron who has dirt, Neville whose robes are wrinkled and edges covered in dirt.
