Chapter 36: The Fusion of the Second Character

Having determined that Dragonbones were the key to activating the energy bar of the cheat, Lynd couldn’t help but feel grateful for the stockpile he’d obtained from the Faceless Man, Bovo. Without it, he would have been forced to find a way to infiltrate the Red Keep and sneak into its dungeons to steal Dragonbones himself—a risk he was glad to avoid.

Lynd felt no urgency to make a ...

Chapter 35: Full Energy Bar

“Get out of the way! What do you idiots want?” The booming voice of Robert Baratheon echoed across the arena. Bloodied and bruised, the king rose to his feet with the support of Ser Barristan Selmy. Glaring at the Gold Cloaks, he bellowed, “Who told you to barge into the fighting arena, you fools? Do you have any idea what you've done? You’ve ruined a match of unparalleled glory! You’...

Chapter 34: Beating Up the King

Lynd's pause drew a collective sigh of regret from the surrounding audience. The staggering toll of 87 fighters who had fallen to his hand—spanning almost every noble house save House Tyrell—had left an indelible mark. Notably, all the Tully fighters, including their leader Ser Dalton, had met their end at Lynd's blade, as had every Arryn fighter except for two who were injured by others an...

Chapter 33: Killing Mode

Robert Baratheon's sudden appearance on the sidelines of the group's tournament, fully armed, caused a commotion. No one had anticipated that King Robert himself intended to participate in the battle, especially in a group tournament using live weapons.

Many thought Robert was reckless, if not outright mad. Only a year had passed since the Usurper's War, and remnants of Targaryen loyalist...

Chapter 300: Harry’s Narrow Escape

Since he couldn’t be sure if the Bludger's odd behavior would start up again, and with Slytherin’s lead growing larger, Harry knew he needed to catch the Golden Snitch as soon as possible to end the game.

“Practicing ballet, Potter?” Malfoy jeered, flying right beside him. “I didn’t know you had that in you. Maybe you should join the Skeletons!”

Harry was momentarily d...

Chapter 299: Magic Defeats Magic

Kyle got up early on Saturday morning, eager to watch the upcoming Quidditch match. This season's schedule wasn’t favorable to Gryffindor—they had to face the fully-equipped Slytherin team right from the start. A lineup with all Nimbus 2001s... they might as well be up against a professional team. Given this, it was no wonder the Gryffindors were feeling low; even Fred and George didn’t s...

Chapter 298: The Sneaky Trio

Back at the castle, Kyle and his friends navigated the crowded corridors, heading to their next Transfiguration class. Over the past two days, students had been constantly asking about the Chamber of Secrets in nearly every class. But unlike Professor Sprout, the other professors weren’t as tolerant.

In Transfiguration, a Gryffindor girl raised her hand during Professor McGonagall’s l...

Chapter 297: The Legend of the Chamber

For several days in a row, the topic of conversation around the castle was surprisingly consistent. The students couldn’t seem to talk about anything else and spent the entire day discussing the attack on Filch.

Filch had been taken to the Hospital Wing, with Mrs. Norris by his side, keeping a vigilant watch over him. Some students had hoped that life might be easier without this annoyi...

Chapter 296: The Lost Diary

The next day, Filch still hadn’t been seen around the castle.

During dinner, Kyle deliberately sought out Harry to find out what had happened in Lockhart’s office the day before.

“You mustn’t tell anyone else,” Harry said, glancing around and lowering his voice. “Professor Dumbledore doesn’t want too many people to know about this.”

“Filch was turned to stone...

Chapter 295: A Hogwarts Tradition, an Unsettled Halloween

After the party ended, everyone filtered out of the Great Hall with mixed feelings. The Skeleton Dance Troupe had vanished while they were still eating—a bit of a letdown.

"It’s really hard to get that dance troupe to perform," said an eager young wizard in the crowd. "My dad told me the Ministry of Magic itself has to wait ages to book them."

"I heard they were at the last Quid...

Chapter 294: The Halloween Feast

Halloween Eve, second floor of the castle.

Cedric sat in an empty classroom, covering his face and whispering, "Kyle, I don't think this is going to work. Let's just forget about it."

They had been coming here for days now, but their efforts had turned up nothing… well, at least nothing useful.

Instead, they'd become famous.

Nearly half the school knew that the top stu...

Chapter 293: There’s a Story Here

Kyle wasn’t particularly surprised that Dumbledore had brought the Vanishing Cabinet to Hogwarts, but the timing was intriguing. Everyone knew that Professor Dumbledore was awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class, for defeating Grindelwald in 1945—the same year Grindelwald was imprisoned in Nurmengard’s High Tower. That it was during this time that Dumbledore discarded the Vanishing Cabi...

Chapter 292: A Strange Experience

Filch’s office was on the first floor, close to the Entrance Hall. Located just left of the library and down the corridor, it lay directly beneath an empty classroom. Kyle headed to the second floor, running down the corridor in that direction. But as he passed by the entrance to the library, something strange happened. He felt a sudden sense of distraction, a curious fog clouding his mind. 2024-12-27 15:02:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 291: Shake Your Head

For a while after that encounter, Kyle kept a close watch on his surroundings, but oddly, the raspy, whispering voice never returned. He even tried to exhaust himself further with increased training and all-nighters, hoping that fatigue might bring it back. Yet, it was all in vain. It seemed he really had misheard something that day.

After two weeks of this, Kyle finally stopped dwelling ...

Chapter 32: The Last-Minute Rule Change

Common sense dictated that of all the events in the Tournament, the Team Competition should typically follow the Knight Competition. In some cases, the Team Competition wasn’t even held, replaced instead by a simulation of the Knight Competition.

This Tournament, however, deviated from tradition. The Team Competition was scheduled after the Archery Competition, and the participation cri...

Chapter 31: The Nameless Ones

Lynd stood outside his tent, tossing chunks of meat far into the distance for Glory, his albino Shadowcat cub, to fetch and bring back. This exercise was part of Glory’s obedience training. At first, Glory would eat the meat outright, but after being disciplined by Lynd several times, it gradually adjusted its behavior. Now, while there was still a 50% chance Glory might eat the meat during t...

Chapter 290: Whispers by the Ear

After class, Kyle hurried to the Great Hall for a quick bite before heading off to the Quidditch Pitch. Even Harris, normally calm, was feeling the pressure now that Slytherin had upgraded their lineup with seven Nimbus 2001 broomsticks. Those things were fast. Fred and George had secretly observed a Slytherin practice, and according to them, the players looked like seven pale green blurs strea...

Chapter 289: Dumbledore Divination

The second Saturday of the term was the day for Quidditch team recruitment, though this year was a bit different. Surprisingly, none of the four houses needed to recruit new players—every team was sticking with last year’s lineup, except for a single new addition: Draco Malfoy. All the other players were familiar faces.

Kyle watched from the stands at the Quidditch Pitch, but after ju...

Chapter 288: Transfiguration Club

The frame had transformed completely into a door. Kyle reached for the knob, and with a quiet “click,” the door swung open. Inside was a room that resembled the usual Transfiguration classroom, though it felt more intimate with only a handful of people seated around.

Including Professor McGonagall and Kyle himself, there were exactly ten people present. On average, it seemed only two ...

Chapter 30: The Will of the Gods

“Hello, Grand Maester Pycelle.” Maester Hawley entered the room, led by his attendant. Upon noticing two people present, he hesitated briefly but quickly identified the older man with the elaborate maester chain as Grand Maester Pycelle and addressed him respectfully.

“I’m not doing so well,” Pycelle replied with a faint smile.

Maester Hawley paused, unsure of how to respo...

Chapter 29: Grand Maester Pycelle

“You're awake!” Lynd, who had been amusing himself by teasing Glory, turned abruptly at the sound of movement from the other side of the bed. He saw the girl, unconscious for the past two days, opening her eyes and looking around blankly.

“Don’t move; your injuries haven’t healed yet,” he said. “Moving around will reopen your wounds.”

The girl didn’t respond, her g...

Chapter 287: The Professors’ Club

Kyle barely made it to the classroom just as the lesson was about to start, and Professor McGonagall only gave him a glance without saying a word.

Transfiguration Class for third-years had already begun, and today’s task was to turn a button into a beetle—the exact opposite of the exercise second-years were tackling. Although the goal involved the same objects, the level of difficulty...

Chapter 286: Riddle’s Second Request

“What was the first Ancient Runes class about?”

At the breakfast table in the Great Hall the next morning, Cedric paused, thinking back. “I remember it was really tough... Actually, the hardest class of the whole year was probably that first one.”

Cho gave him a curious look. “Professor Babbling didn’t dive into the application of magic runes in alchemy, did she? Or the ...

Chapter 285: Ancient Runes and Professor Babbling

Rita Skeeter's report may have caused a brief stir, but it didn’t last long.

From the second week onward, rain settled over Hogwarts, mostly incessant. The gloomy skies and relentless drizzle dampened everyone’s spirits, while the damp cold seeped into the castle walls, leaving many young wizards with colds. Madam Pomfrey had to prepare a large quantity of Pepperup Potion much earlier...

Chapter 284: The Daily Prophet

After calling out several times to no response, Kyle gave up and put the diary back in his suitcase. Is it broken? he wondered. A bit disappointing, since he still had a few more exciting fabrications he’d been planning to share. But, well… not everyone had the mental stamina to keep up.

With a smirk, he stashed the suitcase and inkwell back under his bed, then began tid...

Chapter 283: Come on, Tom, Let’s Hurt Each Other!

After meeting Lucius in the courtyard, the group's mood was noticeably affected. They returned to the castle in silence and went straight back to the common room.

The next day, Ron still hadn’t been discharged from the hospital wing. However, according to someone from Slytherin, Malfoy had apparently been taken away by his father, most likely to St. Mungo's.

Kyle didn’t give it ...

Chapter 28: Cheat’s Reaction

"Is this all there is?" Lynd frowned as he surveyed the goods before him.

The items in question consisted of precious commodities from the Further East—tea, silk, and ceramics. While undoubtedly valuable, they hardly seemed worth the effort of Littlefinger making a special trip to King's Landing, let alone enlisting Janos Slynt to provide additional protection for the shipment.

"C...

Chapter 27: The Dock Warehouse

Lynd's promotion to captain of the cavalry patrols stirred murmurs throughout the Tyrell camp. Those who had remained in King’s Landing with Lord Mace Tyrell the previous year were unfazed, but for others—especially those who had traveled from Highgarden—the news came as a surprise. After all, Lynd had recently been demoted from Knight Squire to the scouting team. Yet, in just half a mont...

Chapter 282: Lucius’s Fury

In the afternoon, Fred and George visited Ron in the Hospital Wing with a large bag full of sweets. Kyle went along with them.

Outside the Hospital Wing, two groups stood like guards flanking the doorway. On the left were the towering Gryffindors led by Oliver Wood, and on the right were the Slytherin Quidditch players led by Marcus Flint. Both teams had come to visit, but since they arri...

Chapter 281: Conflict and the Unusual Snape

Anyone who steps into Honeydukes rarely leaves empty-handed, and Kyle and the others were no exception, their pockets now bulging with sweets of every kind. They continued down the main road until they reached The Three Broomsticks, where they stopped for a warm Butterbeer. True to their word, Fred and George covered Kyle's drink, though Kyle seemed distracted, preoccupied with something the tw...
