HP: I Have "Pure" Magic

Chapter 42:

A.N.: There are still some doubts, so let me be clear. Christopher Maxwell, the full name of protagonist, reincarnated into an immature body, so he drank an aging potion and got a fake identity forged by paying goblins. He chose the same that he had in his previous life, Chris Jackson. Ted and Andromeda only know him by that name. Thus, the letter was addressed as such.

***

Dora looked at the letter in her hands, processing the information that she had on hand. Chris Jackson. That millionaire Bloke. Dora, of course, remembered him. How could she not? Her parents had all but asked her to court him. Of course, they didn't say anything directly, but in her opinion, her parents were too clumsy!

( *cough* *cough* *Kettle appalled at the outrageousness of the pot!!!*)

Dora paused in her thoughts as she heard the sound of a thunderclap along the rumbling of clouds from the sky. It was as if the sky was outraged at the irony of something.

'Anyway, where was I? Yeah, mum and dad are too clumsy. I mean, could they be any more obvious?' She thought while ignoring the sound of thunder.

Dropping praises about his business skills, sometimes comparing his looks with some of her favorite muggle rockstars, talking to each other about how he's still single after being a millionaire...Smooth, mum and dad...very smooth. Not clumsy at all.

Why can't they understand that, even if he's a nice guy, but currently Dora was more focused on making her career, following her dreams. She didn't have time time for this boyfriend girlfriend thing. But on this thought, she suddenly remembered a certain 11 year old, and a fond smile crossed her lips.

'No! No! Bad Dora, bad Dora, it's impossible between you two.' Dora quickly shook her head of the wild thoughts.

There were more important things to think about right now. Like why did mum and dad invited him for Christmas? Ok, that one is obvious. To match make them, but how the hell did Hoots ended up here at Hogwarts?

"Here, dear. He suffered a bit due to snow, but he's right as rain now." Said Madam Pomfrey, interrupting detective Dora's musings.

Denying the possibility that the always strict matron might have made bad pun and chalking it up to coincidence, Dora thanked the matron sincerely and took Hoots out infirmary.

"Hoots." said Dora while waving the letter in front of her. "Did dad asked you to deliver it to me?"

*Hoot*, Hoots hooted in denial while shaking her hooting head.

"Then why did you deliver it to me?" Asked Dora.

"Hoot! Hoot! Hoooot!" Hoots hooted in anger while flapping her wings.

Her anger was justified. After all, she had persevered through the storm with all her might, just to be stopped right before she could reach her Destination and fullfil her task! It was like running a 50km marathon and being forcefully stopped from completing it right when you thought that you'd reached the finish line.

Dora didn't understand exactly what Hoots was saying, but...it seems that Hoots was blaming her!

"What have I done wrong?" She asked, puzzled.

Hoots didn't answer, but instead took the letter from Dora's hand into her beak and flew up.

"Hey, wait!" Detective Dora followed the owl. The owl was taking the same route that they had come from.

'Why the hell would it take the letter there?'

Dora quickly followed Hoots into the great hall, where Hoots delivered the letter to a very familiar person...

MC POV:

It was a few minutes after Dora had left.

I was drinking milk while talking with Hannah and Susan.

"How did you become such so friends with Tonks?" Asked Susan curiously. She was aware that Tonks had very few close friends in the school. She had a reputation of trashing every bully she sees.

"Huh? I didn't tell you how? haha, it's a funny story. It was my first night at Hogwarts and I wanted to explore it a bit. So I snuck out of the common roo-"

"You broke the curfew on your first at castle?" Susan interrupted, aaand...Is that respect I'm sensing in her voice? No way, right?

Hannah did an "Ohh!" With her hands covering her mouth.

"Yeah, It's no big deal." I said dismissively. "And the castle was so big! I totally got lost in the winding corridors, not even knowing where I'm going." I paused.

"Then? What happened next? Did you meet Tonks?" Asked Hannah, totally immersed in my story.

"No, I found a room, a big one. It had target dummies for spell practice, along with a few books on dueling. It was at that moment that Tonks marched into the room like she owned the place... And when she saw me waving saying hello to her, she got so scared that she pointed her wand and me!" I laughed, the girls laughed along with me.

As we were having fun, an owl, Hoots landed in front me and dropped a letter.

I frown, wondering what was going on untill I saw that the letter was addressed to my adult identity.

My eyes widened for moment, a sinking sensation spreading across my body, I quickly looked towards the entrance and-

It was at that moment that I realized, I was f*cked.

A.N.:

Uh...looks like my hands automatically stopped at an unfortunate time.

You guys are not the first ones to express your desire to punch to me in face, nor would you be the last.

Anyway, this novel is going great, but there's just one problem, many readers just quit before even the fun part begins! Did I tell anyone that I started writing this novel because I had a crazy good idea for the goblet of fire arc? So, I wrote the starting few chapters without thinking much. I was like, posting new chapter every two hours. But then I got serious and decided that I might as well go all out and and write all the years. Anyway, this novel is going to be a long one. So.... that's it.
