What Eric saw in front of him was the corpse of the troll he had just killed, along with a group of teachers examining it.
Suddenly Dumbledore came in followed by Harry.
"Unfortunately headmaster, it seems that Eric mowroly has died while fighting this troll." Said professor McGonagll.
But before dumbledore could say anything Harry interrupted.
"Nooooo Eric!!!" Harry screamed trying to rushing over to Eric only to be stopped by Snape.
"Get, off" Harry said practically oozing murderous intent at Snape, although on the outside Snape looked fine he was pretty terrified at the amount and density of the killing intent coming out of the eleven year old child.
"Calm down potter, screaming won't bring him back."
But then Eric stood up shocking everyone.
"Who said I ever left" Eric said in a cheerful manor, he had just received some nifty treats from dying and he was itching to try them out.
"Wait he's not dead?" Harry asked in confusion.
"It does seems that he isn't dead" said Dumbledore.
"Well I guess we should probably go shouldn't we" Eric said to Harry and Hermione.
"Ok" Hermione said while wiping the tears off her face. And so the trio left, leaving the group of teachers dumbfounded.
Professor McGonagll, the one who had been inspecting the troll noticed something.
"Headmaster"
"Yes"
"This is no ordinary troll, this is a kings class one."
"Hmm" Dumbledore went into a ponder thinking about what it meant for mr mowroly.
"Interesting, very interesting."

The news that Eric had managed to kill a troll moved around the school very quickly and soon everyone saw Eric in a different light, before people didn't want to mess with him because he was very good at magic and very strong, but now added on to those facts now that he has managed to kill a troll, which was hard for most wizards to begin was already impressive, but moreover he did this at the age of eleven.
So far with his newfound popularity he hadn't been able to try out his new powers, but fortunately today he had an opportunity, and he was going over to do some tests now.
It was midnight and Eric stopped a bit of the way in, he walked over to one of the trees and then punched it hard, *crack* the wood split and fell to the ground with a thud, Eric looked at his hand there was no wound to be seen.
"Profound strength, check. Physical resistance. Check. Pain resistance. Check. Next magical resistance. "
Then Eric pointed his wand at himself and said "Bombarda" Then a huge explosion hit Eric directly on the head making a massive shock wave that Rustled the trees, once the dust to cleared Eric stood there without a single scratch on him.
"Magic resistance. Check. "Now on to rapid regeneration "Eric took out a blade and stabbed his hand penetrating into the flesh and leaving a light scratch which healed instantly.
"Rapid regeneration. Check. " Eric had now checked out all of the abilities that he had recently gotten, now it was time to go back and sleep.
The next morning Eric awoke and got ready to watch the quidditch game that Harry was going to play in.
The game was very exciting to watch and it played out exactly how it did in the original storyline, with the snitch in Harry's mouth and Gryffindor winning.

The next thing you know and it's Christmas and the castle is covered in Christmas related things like Holly, tinsel and Mistletoe all very jolly.
Eric and Harry awoke to a bed side full of Christmas gifts.
" what gifts do you think we got?" Asked Harry.
"Dunno"
"Well let's open them then"
"Okay"
The presents were all pretty mediocre Eric got some new exercise equipment from his parents, a book on how to perfectly cook bacon from Harry and some new school supplies.
Harry had gotten a coat hanger from the Dursley's, a nice snug hat from the mowroly parents, a book on quidditch knowledge, some school supplies from Hermione and the Invisibility cloak which used to belong to his father.
Christmas went well and everyone had a great time, well everyone there most had gone home for the holidays, but even though Harry and Eric could go to the mowrolys for Christmas they decided to stay.
This kept up all the way up till they went to sleep.
Eric's sleep was interrupted by an exited Harry that had apparently found a mirror that showed him his parents, so Eric followed Harry while under the invisibility cloak to the room with the mirror in it.
"Look, look it's my parents can you see them?"
"No it's only me and you"
"Go closer"
"Nope now it's just me" and Eric wasn't lying he could only see himself, and he guessed that it was probably because him being in the Harry Potter world was enough to make him happy on its own he didn't need any more.
And so Eric left Harry to stair at the mirror and went back to the common room and went to sleep.
