Ragnok's Office:
After the spar, we went to freshen up or more accurately, for Ragnok to get healed up and changed. I just had a few cuts from our fight.
If I fight without any mana and rely only on my body and skills, it seems even a veteran goblin warrior is not my match.
I spar with the girls every day, and our fights reach entirely different levels with and without mana.
We all have our strengths and weakness.
Yoru stands on top for hand to hand combat, Akame for swordsmanship, Bella for weapon throwing, and me with close combat knife fighting.
We are all very close in strength using our own unique advantages, but I have an overwhelmingly large amount of mana compared to them.
I also have my summons, but I only use them when we fight 3 v 1.
Yoru's speed and destructiveness with her lightning is insane, Bella's element has a thousand and one uses and she is always mixing things up, Akame is extremely dangerous because she can just keep stacking curses while cutting you.
Anyway, after the fight, I met up with everyone, and after a light scolding and congratulations from McGonagall, she left along with Sirius since my meeting was for the Peverell's only.
"So, what is that you want me to search for?" (Ragnok)
"It's not exactly search as it is to just keep an eye and ear open for information on VERY rare magical beasts and herbs. I am looking for things that are usually only spoken of through word of mouth." (Magus)
We were sitting on the office's very comfortable couch, having some tea, and discussing the terms of our business agreement.
"Ah, I would take it that you are a researcher?" (Ragnok)
"Of a sort, yes, I am also a collector of sorts, and it is challenging to get information that is not spoken of outside of their areas." (Magus)
"I understand, it is not my business what the purpose of such a thing is. We have an extensive information network, and I will have weekly reports sent to you with a list of what we can find. How much Acromantula silk did you say you had?" (Ragnok)
From there, we negotiated the amount of silk I would send over yearly.
The reason I set up this deal was mostly just a whim. I'm going to relax for a bit in Hogwarts, but I want to keep up the search for anything I can milk from this world.
And all it cost me is some free silk from my spider shadows.
"One last thing, this is only my curiosity speaking, but when we fought, I felt like you were restricted in a sense. I know you were not using magic, but why did it still feel like that?"
'Ah, I may have enhanced reflexes, but after the Maturation, my older form took the core of my mind. Now when I fight, I still move as if my body was larger, but my reflexes allow me to adjust, so it does not look awkward.'
I exchanged looks with the girls, and they nodded. I already won my respect amongst the goblins, and it doesn't make much difference if they know a small secret for a few years.
"I told you once before Ragnok, not everything is always as it seems."
As I was speaking, I took off the illusion ring and returned to my full size.
Ragnok's eyes widened before he started laughing.
"HAHAHA! I have a feeling life is going to get interesting with you around." (Ragnok)
*Line Break*
The next few weeks flew by.
The day after our public appearance, the article Skeeter wrote made the front page.
[Big News!
The new Lord Peverell!
Hello readers, this is Rita Skeeter here to bring you news of Lord Peverell.
The Lord has come out into the public and set up a meeting with Cornelius Fudge and Amelia Bones to give his views on the wizarding world.
The Lord asked me to come to the meeting to record an interview to share with you all!
Along as a witness was Lord Black, who you may remember was saved by Lord Peverell in his hour of need after that horrible situation with Azkaban.
Here are some of the questions we had time for.
…..Lord Peverell, where has the Peverell line been all these years, and why have you decided to come out into the public eye?
Well Rita, the previous Lord Peverell before me, had actually passed away centuries ago. Before the time of his death, he set up an ancient spell that acted in a similar way to how Hogwarts finds its students.
The spell would scan close to half of Europe for a child with certain qualities. These qualities included a certain level of magical talent, having no living family, being around a certain age, and a few others.
Once a child was found, they would be apparated to Peverell Island, where they would have to choose to take on a life and death inheritance test. If they decided not to, then they would be obliviated and sent back to where they were found.
This spell was set up centuries before many of our current laws were set into place and therefore has not broken any law since there was no one to supervise it.
When I was five, I was found, and I chose to take the test.
The reason for my public appearance is that due to tradition, a Lord should have spent at least a few years in a magical institution.
Seeing as I am currently eleven, I was invited to Hogwarts for the year.
…Eleven?! Lord, you look as if you are around fifteen, and even then, you have a robust stature. Why is that?
Ah, yes, you see, around a thousand years ago, the wizarding world was a much fiercer place. There were many dangers and a lot less organization that we have today.
The Peverell's were one of many houses that believed a strong body and a sharp mind make a true wizard or witch.
My house does not except those of a weak body or mind. You must look forward and grow, not stop and stagnate.
Just as many pureblood families, the Peverell's family bloodline was special. It was one that promoted magical and physical growth but would drain you dry if you do not train.
The so-called carrot and stick analogy if you will.
Therefore, I have been training on both sides since the age of five and am much stronger in both body and mind.
….Fascinating! A true paragon of a wizarding family. What do you plan to do now that you are out in public?
I wish to learn, I shall take up my schooling at Hogwarts as well as attend to my duties as a Lord, and when I graduate in seven years, I will take up an active role in the magical world and MAKE IT GREAT AGAIN!
….Truly Inspirational, now I understand that you are already married? How did this happen at your age?
Funny story actually. The Peverell's had many training locations around the world to test themselves with real challenges.
It was when I undertook some of them that I ran into the fierce and strong-willed women I came to love.
They are witches of just as much talent as I, and we spent a few years together before we realized we could not be separated, and I asked them to stand by my side for the rest of my life.
….Wow! It is just like a real novel! Those with strong magic have always been known to be very mature from a young age. It is rare but not unheard of for such a young marriage to happen.
Now just a few more questions…... ]
From there, I answered a few more pointless questions to keep the public off my back at least until graduation, and I will be long gone before that time.
The public opinion seems to be overwhelmingly positive.
During the meeting with Fudge and Amelia, I brought to their attention the ownership the Peverell's possess over Azkaban and the Dementors as well as my hypothesis for why the Dementors went bat shit crazy.
They were made to be executioners and not torturers. By prolonging the execution and having them feed on prisoners slowly, they were slowly driving them mad, and eventually, one snapped and caused a chain reaction.
Of course, this was complete bullshit, but Tom was upset with the current state of the island, so I felt the least I could do for him was put it into order.
My words to Fudge were: "It's a good thing you didn't do something stupid like placing them near innocents or a magical school, can you imagine the catastrophe it would cause?"
Amelia scoffed at the very idea, but Fudge grew incredibly pale. I did a mind sweep and found that Umbridge and Lucius had been whispering into his ear to do just that for years!
The third movie was not a spontaneous move but one of years of careful planning on their part.
In the end, I agreed to continue letting them use the prison with a few conditions.
The prison was to be cleaned at least once a year (with magic), and only a handful of Dementors were to stay awake as guards and not torturers while the rest were to be placed in status until they are needed.
Fudge readily agreed while Amelia was giving him a severe stare about why he could have been so nervous.
Anyway, with my public appearance out of the way, the girls and I went back to our regular routine, which involved training, relaxing, having island shaking sex, and killing spiders.
Then the day for Hogwarts came.
*Line Break*
Peverell Island:
Sep 1st, 1987:
Magus POV:
'Man, its been almost twenty chapter…I mean almost five and a half years since I died and came here.'
The Harry Potter world seemed so small and straightforward on paper and in the movies, but when you enter it, you realize that the entire series was just a tiny corner of the world.
Americans barely even knew about a snake faced dark Lord named voldy.
I asked one guy when I went to New York, and he asked me if that was the child sex offender type of 'dark' wizard. Seeing as there was no harm in dumping more shit on Riddle, I just nodded and walked away.
My attention was brought back to my mansion when it gave off a sad mana pulse as if sensing my departure.
"Don't worry big guy, we will back real soon." (Magus)
"Magus, it's time to go." (Akame)
The girls approached me, and I nodded. I took their hands, and shadow traveled to outside the forbidden forest.
'And so, it begins.'
*Line Break*
Hogwarts:
Sep 1st, 1987:
"So….do you see a doorbell?" (Magus)
"I thought the door was open year-round?" (Bella)
"Didn't they walk up to a closed-door in the first movie?" (Yoru)
"Making a showy entrance." (Akame)
Seeing as we were allowed to skip the train, we just apparated over and walked up to the front door. The only problem was….it was closed….
"Well, if Hagrid's knock got someone's attention, then let's try it that way." (Magus)
I took a quick look around, and seeing the coast was clear, I partially summoned one of my Giants.
"Yo, big guy, just gently knock of the door twice and immediately disappear." (Magus)
It grunted and nodded its head.
"Ha! It's the world's first 'ding dong ditch' with a Giant!" (Yoru)
We shared a laugh at that and waited.
{Boom} {Boom}
A minute later, the door cracked open, and a drunk looking old man appeared.
I will never forget the first words I heard straight from the mouth of the famous Albus Dumbledore.
"I already told you damn loan sharks! I CAN'T PAY THIS MONTH! One more trip to the casino, and I will get you your money!"
He immediately started shouting without properly looking at us.
". . . . . "
"Pft." (Yoru)
"Hahahahaha! Oh god, that's perfect!" (Yoru)
We all fell silent until Yoru was the first to lose her shit, then we all followed her.
Hearing laughter instead of the usual death threats, Dumbledore looked up and paled.
"*Cough* I would take it that you are not here for the money." (Albus)
"*Pft* No, *Pft* no, we are not." (Magus)
Trying to keep a straight face was not easy at this moment.
"Trick or treaters?" (Albus)
"Dude, just how much do you love candy?" (Magus)
"Candy is the food of the gods!" (Albus)
"Wasn't that supposed to be Ramen?" (Akame)
"Blasphemy! You're a heathen!" (Albus)
'''What did he call our sweet Akame!?''' (Magus + Bella + Yoru)
Just as we were about to mercilessly rip apart this old man piece by piece, the door to the castle slammed open.
{BOOM}
"What the hell is taking you so long to answer the door Albus?!" (McGonagall)
A wild Professor McGonagall appeared!
"It is good to see you again professor." (Magus)
"Lord Peverell? Ah, we were expecting you a few hours later." (McGonagall)
"My apologies, it seemed easier to handle things before the place gets busy." (Magus)
"No worries, none at all, come along now. Albus, go and do something useful, AND no, that does not mean run off to Hogsmede for a few hours before the students show up."
We entered the castle and left a sulking old man behind.
"So, that was Albus Dumbledore?" (Bella)
*Sigh*
"He was a great man once, but age has caught up to him I'm afraid. He is still a good headmaster, but he has begun to have strange habits like drinking and gambling in recent years. I feel like I am taking care of a child who never left home after graduating."
'This…is an interesting development. To be honest, I didn't try to research the guy. I have seen him a few times over the years, but I never interacted with him beyond stunning him and taking the elder wand…..SHIT….The elder wand must have been how he stayed sane for so long!'
In the movies, he died at the same time he lost his wand, so the effect of him losing it was never shown.
'He was probably relying on it to keep his mind together. Well…oops I guess, I don't exactly feel bad about it though.'
I exchanged looks with the girls, and we all understood the situation, then we collectively shrugged and just kept walking.
"The other students will not be here for another seven hours, so let's get you settled. We prepared your room on the sixth floor, which is the floor where teachers have their own rooms.
Your welcome to customize it at your leisure.
As we discussed Magus, your schedule will be with the first years, and seeing that only you enrolled, your wives will simply follow you if they wish to join a class.
All the teachers already know of your situation and will not give you or dock points for your actions.
You are an adult by law, and you must act like one. Therefore, if you cause an incident, it could have legal consequences, am I understood?"
'She is not exactly intimidating when I spend every day around three alpha females, but she has been very kind, so I don't wish to be rude to her.'
"Yes ma'am. Also, as you know, I will join the main hall for the main events, but for the majority of the year, I will be eating in my room. The amount of training I do requires a very specific diet that my house-elves are not going to relinquish to others."
'And I do not want to sit with a bunch of children or eat the food I was offered by my friend who asked me to deal with the spiders.
They use butter on everything! They eat the same exact unhealthy food every day! And what the hell is pumpkin juice?!
I tried it one time at home, and Gol and Sil threw a tantrum about how wasteful it was to use a pumpkin in such a way. Not to mention the death threats my girls gave if I tried to make them drink it again, it was disgusting!'
"While I am not happy that you won't be able to socialize, I can understand your unique case. At least you have these three wonderful witches to keep you on a straight path."
'Woman, you should see some of the shit we get up to when we're having fun or sex or both.'
"Of course Professor." (Bella)
'That innocent smile shows your true colors Bella.'
"The guy can't put his pants on in the morning without us." (Yoru)
'That's because you keep taking them off Yoru!'
"Mn, he needs daily head pats." (Akame)
'…I won't deny that one, ever since we all transformed, we all love affectionate actions.'
"Good, now, Magus, would you like to be sorted early or would you like to wait for the other first years." (McGonagall)
"I don't feel like making a scene, so let's get it out of the way. Albus can make an announcement of my placement during dinner."
"That's fine, and Lord Peverell, in private, it is fine to refer to us teachers by name, but in public, our titles are required to retain a certain amount of reputation. So, do not call Albus by his name in public." (McGonagall)
"No problem professor." (Magus)
We arrived at the room on the sixth floor.
'It's a good thing I can just shadow travel everywhere, this place is huge.'
"This will be your room, customize it as you wish, there are space expansion charms to make areas larger if necessary. I shall go and get the sorting hat and come back."
She walked off, and we entered.
It was a nice and cozy place, stone walls with oil lamps, carpeted floors along the paths and by the furniture, a staircase leading to a loft with a skylight, a fireplace with some couches and chairs, a dining table, and a couple connected rooms for sleeping and washing.
All in all, it was a great place to stay for a few years.
That is….if we didn't have other plans.
"Using fire and oil lamps is fine when necessary, but it's really annoying to rely on daily." (Yoru)
"Lumos." (Magus)
"Thanks love." (Yoru)
"No problem." (Magus)
A few years into this world, I wanted to make a way to keep using mana in my daily life, so I went simple and used the basic light spell 'Lumos' and then combined it with the Skyrim spell "Magelight" which creates a temporary ball of light, and created a light spell that launches balls of light around a room that continues as long as you supply it with mana.
{Knock Knock}
There was a knock at the door, the professor returned with the hat.
"I hope you are enjoying the room, it is up to the same standard as a teacher's personal room…..what are those lights?"
It's always fun to see a confused look on a teachers face.
"It's lovely professor, thank you for accepting my requirements, and this is a modified Lumos spell I created, much more efficient, right?"
"It is a marvelous idea! *Groan* All the long nights of paperwork using torchlight was giving me far too many headaches, I must ask you to teach me this spell.
As for the requirements, It's fine, I am actually happy to see someone with the courage to stand up for what they want without being an arrogant twit.
Anyone with a backbone now days is usually arrogant to the bone and for the wrong reasons." (McGonagall)
"Thank you professor, now let's get the sorting done."
"Indeed, here you go."
She handed me the hat, and I put it on.
* Hat and Magus Mental Conversation *
'Well, well, what do we have here?'
'You're not going to tell me you are my father, right? Because I have been through that already and I did not get the force.'
'Oh? If you know that joke, then you can't be normal. It has not been made in this world yet.'
'This world? You know about the multiverse?!'
'Keke, child, I am a very special existence.
When Ravenclaw made me, she re-used a material she found that was dropped into the world by a passing cultivator. His name was 'Senior White,' and he accidentally caused a dimensional accident by forgetting the item he dropped.
The result was that every version of this world had the same hat come into existence, and we are all connected.' (AN: SENIOR WHITE ARRIVES! If you do not know who this man is, your life is incomplete.)
'Senior white was here?! Shit, I don't want to die! You don't have his curse, right!?'
'Keke, you should be fine, now how about giving me access to your mind, it's not every day I meet someone who understands how big the world really is.'
'Ok, but I'm still restricting most of it.'
'Just a small amount is fine.'
The hat might be trustworthy, but you don't tell everyone your secrets for no real reason.
* End Mental Conversation *
"You possess qualities of all the houses, where would you like to be placed?" (Hat)
McGonagall gave me an expectant look.
"Let's keep it simple, put me in _." (Magus)
"_ it is, it was wonderful speaking to you Magus." (Hat)
"Same here, I will stop by to have a chat every now and then." (Magus)
"Good, I will come back in a few hours to get you before the students arrive." (McGonagall)
"Thank you again for everything professor, I hope it will be a fun few years." (Magus)
"Stay out of trouble, and there will be no issues, enjoy settling in." (McGonagall)
As soon as the door closed, Yoru spoke up.
"Ok, enough playing around, let's go already." (Yoru)
"Yeah, this was important but kind of boring." (Bella)
"Mn, I want lunch." (Akame)
"Sheesh, we just had to set up our foundation, we can play around now. Tom." (Magus)
"Yes sir." (Tom)
Tom appeared silently, like usual.
"Please arrange this room like a lounge, we will head out for now." (Magus)
"Right away sir." (Tom)
I grabbed the girls and shadow traveled to our destination.
*Line Break*
Peverell Mansion:
We appeared in the courtyard, and the mansion hummed in happiness.
"See, I told you we would not be gone long." (Magus)
That's right, why the FUCK would I live in Hogwarts for the next five-six years when I have my own beautiful and sentient mansion.
"I left a Kneazle and my shadow puppet behind, if anyone knocks, I'll deal with it." (Magus)
"Good, I'm going to jump into the hot springs." (Yoru)
Yoru raced off.
"Lunch." (Akame)
Akame walked off to have an early lunch to prepare for lunch.
"Do you want to spar for a bit?" (Bella)
"Sure, why not." (Magus)
And so, we lived happily ever after.
~THE END~

Author notes:
Hey guys, a few notes for you.
One, I am putting up a vote for which house Magus will enter. IT DOES NOT make a huge difference in the novel. I will just change up the jokes. Go with the usual Gryffin route and be a house mascot as a lion, Go with raven and make a fun friendship with Flitwick, take the unusual Hufflepuff route "Sugar, Spice, and everything nice," I won't take the Slytherin route since there are too many fanfics with OC MC's who go there.
Two, if you guys have any cool magical beasts or magical cultivation world herbs you like, throw it my way, and if I like it, I will have Ragnok randomly "Find" information on it.
Three, I want to create a FREE patre*n or Discord to start uploading fan art for the novel. I don't know how to use Discord, but I can try to learn.
Four, I am going to start recommending at least two novels/fanfic that I personally enjoyed each chapter.
Five, THE DIRECTION OF THE NOVEL FOR HOGWARTS. Basically, it's mostly for fun, so there will be a lot of Magus and the girl's slice of life moments, battles with the spiders, messing with students and teachers at Hogwarts, and some minor stuff I might spontaneously think of to throw in.
EACH year of Hogwarts will be between one to two chapters in length until the tournament. I will only change it up a bit if I get an idea I really want to add.
*Line Break*
Novel Recommendation:
Fanfiction website:
"Harry-Stu Gamer by zed019" – one of my favorite Gary Stu crackfic novels.
Webnovel Website:
"Bleached Multiverse by Coraulten" – Ichigo is reborn in DXD, and within a few chapters, he gets a special grandfather by the name of "Zelretch!" who sends him to collect a peerage through the multiverse while fucking with the entire world for shits and giggles.
"Naruto's Chat Group by EternalBliss4U" – If you enjoyed "Cultivation chat group," then you will love this one.
I have a long list, stay tuned.
