32. Preparations

After sorting out the details with Gringotts, it was time to face the worst race in any reality, the humans.

I had to go to the Ministry, where I had to explain my situation to the big names that controlled that shit. Cornelius Fudge, Amelia Bones, Bartholomew Crouch Sr., Rufus Scrimgeour, and Dolores Umbridge.

These were the ones who asked the questions about my past, and some of the questions were so invasive I nearly caused murder. Okay, that would be two people deaths I don't even care about, but I still held back.

Having no way of denying who I was, with the irrefutable evidence presented, they just, with no choice, accepted my words. Of course, I wasn't out of sight of some of them, almost as if I were an emerging dark lord myself.

From there, I called Monster, who before saying anything, made him shut up and take me home. I wasn't going to tell them the name of the place, so they could pop in whenever they wanted.

There, I sent a letter via Monstro to Grotooth, to send me 4 more house-elves. As he delivered the letter, I cast the mansion's protection magic to throw the old resident into an unoccupied cell in the dungeon.

Let her suffer for her sins until her death.

As soon as the new 4 elves arrived, I had them bond with the house, which consisted of them being elves of the Black family. The only order I gave was, apart from the cleaning that the house urgently needed, was not to reveal the address to anyone without my authorization. Even the other Blacks.

But I asked one of them to inform Andromeda, after all, she was my tutor, my cousin and above all, it was good to have someone to talk to and help me advance a school year in 3 months.

In the meantime, my special request for enrollment at Hogwarts has been accepted. There were no problems as they believed that as I was not in Great Britain the sorting pen could not select me for my studies at the correct time.

Dumbledore tried numerous times to arrange a meeting with me, but I always made up an excuse, as I really needed to be up to speed with the course taught in the first year. Thing I did in just over 15 days.

Of course, most of it was just reading the books, and then taking a test at the Ministry, answering questions on the parchment related to all material for the year in question.

For the wand, I could only get it after the test. Just because they needed more time to try something, which was in vain. And right after I was allowed to go to Ollivander, get a wand, I completed the first part of my plan.

As soon as I returned from Diagon Alley with Andromeda, and we sat down to get to know each other a little more, she went to her house, where she was going to prepare dinner for Nymphadora's arrival. Little did she know that dinner was already being prepared by Lena, one of the new house elves.

I went to my room and called monster. As soon as he appeared, with that sharp tongue, mumbling curses at me, I ripped his head off his neck with a Diffindo.

He wasn't needed, and only served as a banshee mumbling about everything. His purpose was done, and he died. With that, I went to the locket with the soul piece, and tucked it away, safe and secure, where his influence would be blocked.

It was easy to enchant an object with the Sealing Kidōs, even more so because it was just writing the light enchantment over an object, and the magic would seal the object as a whole.

I took that time to learn from a few books in the Black library, and I spent my time learning about a lot. It really was a sinister library, with so much magic that it gave me the creeps.

Some rituals were so macabre that a monstrous Hollow wouldn't be so scary. I miss when I could use the twins to cut things.

-------------------------------------------------- ----------------

It's been a month, and time goes by really fast. I didn't do much but study those books that month and have cousin And visit. Yes, we are at that level now.

She's a very fun, youthful woman despite her age, and did I mention she's hot? Very hot my dears, extremely hot.

Anyway.

Today, she would bring Nymphadora and Ted to meet me. Didn't do that before because, as Nymphadora had finished her school term, and she decided to work as an auror, she needed to study a little more about potions, a subject she really wasn't good at. But to no one's surprise, it wasn't her fault.

So, after she's been approved and is now under Mad-Eye's tutelage, she has a few days before she joins the low-paying ministry job for good.

Of course, to celebrate her success, I had prepared a surprise party, which even And didn't know about. Secrets are apparently my forte in this world.

A funny thing about the protective spells of a wizarding noble house, you can bring people directly here, but either you Apparate with the person, or the elves bring them.

Even if she doesn't know the address, she can stay in the house, but if she gets kicked out or walks out the door, she'll just see herself on an ordinary street, not knowing the exact location of the house, and to make it even cooler.

Going out the door, without knowing the location, does not make you stop in front of the house, but in a farther corner of the house, as if it were there. This protection is pretty cool. another thing, the protection is not just in the house, but in an area.

When a person enters the area, looking for the hidden house, he can be taken by protective magic on a journey through a maze without a maze, that is, you can be both at the door of the house and in the back street and not know the difference. The magic is messing with your psyche, which makes you miss crucial information.

When the three of them appeared in the living room, where the party was being prepared, I just shouted congratulations, and the music started. After reading the banner on the wall that said, 'Congratulations to our Auror Dora Black Tonks' they understood what was going on and interaction was much easier.
