Gryffindor Tower, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Harry arrived in the Gryffindor common room and found it to be empty except one girl. Hermione was sitting on the sofa of the common room, engrossed in the book Harry had given her.
He knew it would not take more than few days for Hermione to finish the book and at that time he would have to answer several of her questions.
He did not disturb her and walked towards the male dormitory.
When he was on the last step he spoke, "Good night Hermione."
Hermione hurriedly lifted her eyes from the book and questioned back, "Where were you, Harry? And I have read few pages, answer me some questions."
Harry continued his steps without any hesitation and replied, "Good night Hermione. Complete the book first."
Hermione put on an annoyed expression but ultimately sighed, "Good night Harry."
In Harry's dorm, Ron was sitting on his bed rummaging through his stuff while Neville Longbottom was also sorting his stuff.
At the one end of the room, Dean Thomas and Seamus Finnigan were chatting among themselves.
Neville greeted, "Hi Harry."
Harry nodded and smiled, "Hello Neville."
At this moment, Ron approached the duo and said in stiff tone, "Hey hello mate."
Harry kept a plain face and greeted back, "Hey Ron."
Ron questioned, "Where were you Harry?"
Harry answered, "Headmaster Dumbledore had wanted to see me."
Ron continued, "What for?"
Harry kept quiet for a moment considering that if Ron was trying to collect information from him, but one voice told him to stop being so paranoid.
He sighed, "Nothing much, he just wanted to ask some questions."
At this answer, it looked like Ron wanted to ask more questions but ultimately did not ask more.
At this moment Harry wondered, how would have Molly reacted when she would have found that the she did not had any access to his vault. Had she already informed Dumbledore?
There was a good chance that she might have not done that, till now, as the Weasleys usually gathered their school supplies just one day before the school and during this timeframe Molly is extremely busy.
She might have not had the time to do so.
His other two roommates also greeted him and with some casual chat, everyone took on their four poster bedroom.
Harry closed his posters and casted few additional charms to prevent it from being opened from outside and closed his eyes.
Harry had many other options for his accommodation.
One, if a situation arises that any of Hogwarts' student have to take Lordship of his family due to any reason, he or she is eligible for their own private quarters.
This was done to ensure that no kind of obstruction or issues regarding breach of privacy or secrecy arises while dealing with the family and Lordship Business.
Secondly, as Lord Gryffindor and Lord Slytherin he had access to the private quarters of the founders of Hogwarts.
But since Harry wanted to hide his Lordship for now, he could not use any of the option. His absence every night from the dorm or if he moves his things would definitely be noted by the other students.

The Great Hall, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Harry was the among the first few students to arrive in the great hall to have his breakfast.
From the past two months, Harry had been an early riser. The resurrection stone had greatly enhanced his physique. In addition to that, Harry did regular exercises which included a long run and a balanced day.
This day was no different. Harry woke up early, ran around the Hogwarts ground, took a bath and arrived in the Great Hall.
Harry intended to spend some time in the library, before he took his first class of the day.
He completed his breakfast but was attracted towards a ruckus in the corridor.
Harry walked towards the ruckus to find Ron Weasley engaged in a confrontation with Draco Malfoy.
Hermione too was present, but she was not involved in the conflict and was watching from among the crowd.
From the few exchanges Harry was able to hear, he discovered that the issue was related to Draco mocking Ron's father, Arthur Weasley.
It was due to some kind of tussle, Arthur was involved in with muggle police officers, because of Moody, which had been reported in The Daily Prophet.
Harry kept quiet and chose to be a bystander. For his own relation with Ron, for now was unclear and he did not want to waste him time in day to day tantrums.
But Malfoy was not in the mood to leave Harry alone, specially, considering the fact Harry had humiliated him just after the train ride.
He faced Harry, "Not standing for your friend today, Potter?"
He then grinned, "and where is your mudblood follower?"
Though the reference to Hermione, made him angry, Harry kept his calm.
Harry sighed in irritation, "Malfoy, don't waste my time."
Trying to move away from Malfoy, Harry moved towards the library but his senses tingled, and Harry quickly sidestepped and then a white light of a spell passed, missing his face.
In a quick motion before anyone could react, Harry turned around, his Holly wand in his hand and fired a banishing charm. The charm struck Malfoy and he was thrown at the wall.
Since Harry had put only a small amount of magic in the charm, Malfoy was not injured badly.
He immediately again tried to point his wand towards Harry, when another spell struck Malfoy and he was transformed into a white ferret.
Moody limped down from the staircase, and there was total silence in the corridor.
Students looked to and fro between Moody and the ferret.
Ron was first to break the silence and he laughed wildly. Following him few more students giggled and even Harry let out a small smile.
