"Uh, the library?" I then said as what they were saying is actually an obvious thing in the world.
"We know, but remember the rule, You can't just walk around alone and expect nothing happen," The guy then said, I then shrug at him.
"C'mon, We will bring you there, Just remember. Follow us in the back this time. Got it?" He then warns as he remembers that last time I accidentally went alone and ignore his warning.
"Uh, sure.." I then said, The other upperclassmen then laugh in amusement as soon as they see my given up face.
. . .
In the end, I was guided by the other Slytherin upperclassmen to the Library. I thank them by giving 1 galleon each to them, Which they smirk and thank me. I then nod.
Walking toward the library, I then see the redhead, bushy hair and the Harry Potter himself. Basically the Golden Trio.
Ignoring Ron sneers, I then walk and search for a book. I then found this one interesting book called, "Beginning of the Dark Magic". The book I could say a little too big for my size, but I nevertheless bring it in and placed it into the table anyhow.
Studying the book, I then hear a hush from the Golden Trio. If I'm not wrong, The first year is that the Voldemort and that mirror.
Oh well, not my problem anyway.
"No Hermione! He's evil!" I then hear a harsh murmur, then a foot walking toward my way.
Seeing a shadow, I then look up. It's Hermione.
[ Hermione Granger ]
[ Lvl. 4 ]
"May I help you?" I then said, as I shut the book and pay attention to her. She then raises her eyebrow at me, "I notice that you are different from the entire Slytherin." She then said as her tone filled with the 'I know everything'.
"Same goes to you," I then retort, "Now, if you come here just by telling me this, Please leave. I need a space to read peacefully." I then said, And start to ignore her and open the book one more time,
"Pardon me, Let me rephrase that. We are searching for something, and base on your attitude and your actions, I believe that you can help us with finding the truth." She then once again said,
"Hn, Why should I?" I then ask, as Ron in the back asking the same question to Hermione.
"You don't really care about the House Rivalry no? I notice that you constantly are alone in every class and favor to do an individual project then the group project. Which conclude that you don't care concerning the people around you and only your individual gain interest, not only that, I notice the way you look at me and basically everyone is the always the same. Disinterested and Indifferent. And that summed up of you not caring about blood purity nor dark or light." She then rants,
"So?" I then asked,
"So? Hmph. I know that you already know everything I want anyway, But let me be blunt. I want you to actually help us doing this research! And not only that-" She then start another rant which caused my head to hurt and it seems that Harry has enough of her.
"We get it, Hermione. But he's- He's! A Slytherin!" Harry then said, Which I nod,
"Yes, exactly. I am a Slytherin and I don't do this," I then gesture the three of them, "Thing. And if you guys can excuse me, I will be leaving. As my escort is here," I said as I point at the upperclassmen of the Slytherin that currently watching the golden trio with malice.
"By the way, The answer is Philosopher Stone. Your welcome,"
I nod at them and put the book back, Then I walk toward the group of guys.
"Well then, Our little Lestrange is actually popular with the Golden Trio, Eh?" I then raise my eyebrow at that,
"He's just kidding Lestrange, But still. Remember, You are a Slytherin. We don't associate ourself with Gryffindor. Got it?" I then nod at him, "Obviously," I said with a scoff. The guys then laugh.
Reaching the common room, I then give them 1 galleon each once more. If this keeps going, I need to finish my investment and gaining more Galleons soon.
"Thanks," I then said, The guys then let out a laugh, "No problem Lestrange, If you need us, Just tell us again. We love working with ya," He then said, I nod.
Sitting in the common room, I then pull another novel that I didn't manage to finish. From the side of my eyes, I can see Draco, and his goons then Blaise and his goons were talking about something.
I then unconsciously shrink to the corner and blend in with the darkness.
Thanks, Sebastian
. . .
The trade that was going on between Blacksmith and Sebastian was a success. Looking at the money right now, I then tell Sebastian to put $2 Million on my trust fund to the Goblin. Which he nods at me and gone to the Gringott I'm guessing and exchanged my money for Galleon.
Sebastian also specifies that if I were by any chanced to have more of the rocks and the fossils, just contact The Blacksmith and he will give me a good amount of money for it.
I then shrug at it and proceeded the daily base of my life. Looking at myself in the mirror, I then let a winning smile. Every day I'm getting more beautiful and beautiful each moment. Thanks to my stupid and rash decision on my life, The stats that I earn from 3 level, which contain 15 stats were placed into my Cha!
Not only that, By applying a right amount of foundations and light blush and tint of lipstick, I manage to gain extra +5 Cha on the makeup! And I look way cuter without my make up anyway.
But still.
Looking at the new dress that I bought with a blond wig that I use, I then start twirling it left and right. "Do you think this is prettier or the redhead one?" I then ask Sebastian, Who is currently holding some of my dress. He then starts to size me up.
"This one Master," He said with his face still flat as a board and no emotions can be detected from it.
"Ok," I said, "Should I use this when we go shopping?" I then ask him, Which we should be going now, but I still couldn't seem found a right dress yet. Sebastian then just nod.
In the end, I use the black dress with some cute hat matching with my blond locks.
We then go to the Diagon Alley to shop for whatever things I actually don't need and can enjoy being rich and a female for once.
Though, it was actually Sebastian Idea, As he notices I always dressed up like a female in the dorm he then thought that it will be simple to dressed up as a girl outside the dorm as no one will notice me anyway.
I then agree, Why? Because I always wasting my Saturday and Sunday either on the Dungeon or at the dorm alone. With my female dressed up and reading whatever book that is actually interested me.
Walking with my high heels and the cute umbrella that is matching the Victorian dress that I just bought for 2,500 dollars, I watch many interesting things that the Diagon Alley are showing on the windows of the many and many shops.
At first, I was actually worried about Sebastian walking around with the sun blasting thru, but he consults me saying that there is a ring that can prevent it. Cost me a sum of galleons, but I managed to buy it.
"Oh! Sebastian! Look at that broom!" I then squeal with happiness. I also pitch my voice so it can match with a female one, Sebastian, Who is beside me just nod.
"Let's go there and buy it!" I then greedily said, Closing the umbrella as soon I enter the shop, Sebastian beside me then hold it.
"Oooh," I then let out an awe sound looking at the broom in front of me. It actually does look magnificent in real life, And not only that, I think because other people keep praising it, my body automatically think that it is that godly looking.
"Did young Miss want to buy it?" Sebastian then asks, We two actually agree that when I am in my female facade, He should call me Mistress or Young Miss. Even though I prefer young Miss anyway.
"Yes!" I then scream out, Sebastian then nods at me. After that, Sebastian walking toward the owner. They were talking about something, Then the guy let out a smile and shook his hand.
"Sebastian! Sebastian! Did you get it? Did ya?" I then ask as I pull his tailcoat. Sebastian then let out a chuckle, "Yes young Miss, I did," As soon as he said that, I then let out a winning smile.
"Where should we go next, Young Miss?" At that, I let out a shrug. But still skipping toward the unknown shop that we will raid.
. . .
The shopping spree was lasting for about 6 hours. My feet ending up sore because of the heels, But Sebastian was nicely massaging my feet.
We manage to spend about 1,357 gallons. And that was the biggest spend I have eternally done, Well except Sebastian of course. But most of them were because I bought the Firebolt. Which cost me a whopping 1,000 galleons. And to be fair, Sebastian manage to haggle with the owner, so it's a great deal.
And the rest were shopping on furniture or clothes.
Which Sebastian and I agree that we need to buy our own house. Or a Villa.
Sitting down to the chair inside of my dorm, I then let Sebastian play with the wig hair that is currently colored jet black.
Looking in the mirror in front of me, I then sigh. "Sebastian, Why is my luck is so rotten? Not only that I apparently died young, but I also sent into a wrong gender.." I sulk, Sebastian who currently braiding the hair, Just chuckle.
"I mean, what if I like somebody? If it is a girl, I will be feeling wrong about it, and if it were a boy? The society will not agree with it." I then grumble some more. Sebastian, Like a good butler he is, just nod at me and continued the braiding.
"Are you hungry young Miss?" He then asked, Thinking about it for a while, I nod at him.
He then finishing my braiding then nod at me, while teleporting to god know where to get my food.
But as soon he leaves, I then heard a knocking at my door.
"Oh shit." I then let out a whisper, Looking at my get up, My female girly get up, I then suddenly got scared. As no one actually bothers to knock on to my door nor coming to my dorm either,
"I'll be there in a minute," I then scream out, Not hearing another knock, I then go to my dressing room and pull up my wig that got some awesome braid from Sebastian and erases my make up with the makeup remover fastly and sloppily.
After that, I then change my clothes to a proper one. Looking in the mirror, I let out a sigh of disappointment. Why am I a male anyway?
Finishing my useless thought, I then walk toward the door. But before unlocking it, I look at the dorm if there's any trace of me being a female. And there is none. So I let out a sigh.
"Yes?" I then asked, Looking at the face, I was greeted by Blaize Zabini and Theodore Nott.
[ Blaize Zabini ]
[ Lvl. 7 ]
[ Theodore Nott ]
[ Lvl. 5 ]
Uh oh.
. . .
"Please sit down," I said as I gesture the two of the uninvited people to sit on the sofa that I just bought from the shopping.
"Thank you," Zabini said, Which I nod.
"Hm, Dragonhide? Nice choice. I heard that it was expensive," Nott then nonchalantly said, Which I shrug.
"Not really, 150 galleons." I then shrug,
"Really? Is that your whole allowance or your family bought it for you?" Zabini then asked, From his tone, It seems he wants to interrogate me.
Did he come here to make sure who's kid I am or what? Or maybe he wants to see the worth of me and try to recruit to his 'goons'? Hm, Weird.
"Hm, you could say allowance," I then shrug. Which caused Nott to raise his eyebrow.
"Woah, Nice! Mine is not that many compared to you, I only earn 100 each month.." He then let out a grumble. Which I scoff, Only?! That only is basically a lot! Spoiled rotten kid.
"Yes Lestrange, We were actually wondering, Who is your parent anyway?" Zabini then asked I raise my eyebrow at that questions.
"And why exactly?" I asked back,
"Ah, nothing big actually, No worry if you are not comfortable to answer the question, As we-" Zabini then got cut by Nott who actually screaming,
"Is that a Firebolt?! You have a FIREBOLT?! THE FIREBOLT?!" Nott then screamed while touching my newly bought expensive broom. Which I kind of feel disturbed as he keeps touching the broom in a weird way.
"Uh, Yes. Cost me a fortune but I manage to got it," I then said as I tried to pry MY broom from his hand. Causing him to grumble and keep looking at my broom in a really disgusting eye.
"Ah, a fortune indeed," Zabini then said as his eyes glint.
"That was quite lucky of you Lestrange, to gain a Firebolt. The Firebolt!" Nott then said as he exasperates 'The' on the Firebolt multiple times already. I nod at him,
"Yes, Lucky.." I then answer, Zabini then somehow chuckle at that.
"And it is from your trust fund, no?" At that, I scrunch my eyebrows. "Yes?" I then said.
At that Zabini then let out a laugh. "Truly, You are Bellatrix Lestrange, son! I knew it!" Which Nott then warily looking at me, "You are actually sane though,".
"What part is it sane Nott, from his lips I can see a tint of lipstick, And his skin, It seems that it once have a powder placed on it. And his eyes, I notice that the eyelash is much bolder and thicker than usual. Which means, He actually once wearing a makeup not too long ago." He then said with a weird smirk on his lips.
"What, how-" I then want to ask, but he then continued.
"Your clothes seem to be messily put, Causing your tie 15 degrees tilted to the right. The socks that you are currently wearing is uneven and the way you do your hair is just a messily locks. Not only that, The robe is unmatched to the short you currently wearing. Oh, and your nail. The nail polish is still there." He then chuckles.
Looking at my nail, It is indeed still sparkly red. I then let out many strings of curses, "And I just have been leaving you for mere minutes, Young Miss," Then Sebastian's voice come up from behind me.
"Uhh, Sebastian. I'm sorry.." I then whimper as I feel like I fail him in some way. Also, The clothes faults were blamed to my depend on Sebastian since I got him. So it's a rusty skill.
Sebastian then ignores the two uninvited shocked guest and show me a delicious looking food, "Oh my," I then said.
"Freshly from France, my Young Miss," He said. I then nod at him and thank him, and ignoring that he just called me "Young Miss".
He then looks at my hair and I can sense a little bit of disappointment, But then it disappeared as if it were never there before.
"Thank you, Sebastian!" I said as I munch on the parfait. Then I remember that someone is there other than Sebastian and I.
"Oh, Uh. Continued," I then said as I keep eating the deliciously made parfait.
"Uh, Let me rephrase what Blaise want, He wants you to join our team," Nott then said as he watches me eating the parfait. Then Zabini let out a muttering about idiots and something that I quite not got.
"I- I actually don't know, I like it like this. Alone, with no responsibility to hold," I then politely decline.
"I don't take a no as an answer, Lestrange. You may not notice, But the upperclassmen that you have been pay for the fee, quite a fortune indeed to be henchmen, of the escort actually keep blocking all the other factions to invite you to theirs. And it is has been hard enough to find where your dorm is placed, and not only that, each time we knock it seems no one is there." Zabini then let out a growl,
"Uh, Ok?" I then said,
"Stop with that eating, and please for the love of Merlin listened to me." Zabini then said. I raise my eyebrow at that. "Alright," I answer to amuse him, which I give the Parfait back to Sebastian.
Which I whisper to Sebastian he can eat some if he wants. He then let out a smile but still holds the parfait in his hand. Ignoring Nott watchful eyes.
"I know, But I don't want to I'm fine with this current style," I then repeat my own answer but with a better phrasing. In my head though, not sure if it is better on Zabini.
"Lestrange. Listen. This is Slytherin, You cannot be alone without no factions. Look at Malfoy, He is with the two idiots and Parkinson. Greengrass, she is with that half-blood and the idiot brute. And what about you? You are currently alone-" Zabini then continued to rant.
. . .
In the end, I join Zabini little 'factions'. He also told me by joining his, He needs to know me personally and not leaving a single thing about my life. He also made a pact, or an unbreakable vow to not share it with another party.
Zabini and Nott then start to tell about themself.
I learn that Zabini actually a killer in making because his mother line of the family, Then I learn that Nott is actually death eater on making. Which I let out an eyebrow, like that so-called 'secret' actually not a secret at all. It was just a plain obvious shit.
So I just tell them that I was adopted by some unnamed family and I have a hobby dressing up as a girl. As that was actually obvious shit right now. And no, I was not thinking to tell any secret to them any time soon,
Zabini and Nott then just shrug and accept it, They even ask me if they can see my female persona. Which I scoff, and agree.
Now, there are already 3 people who personally know me and sees me with my female facade.
Still, don't know how to feel about Nott calling me beautiful in the facade though, Even got Zabini agreeing with him.
