They ran around the castle going up and down many floors. Damian frowned,' how did this Filch know where we are? Even after losing him three times he caught up with us? ', Damian did a quick scan on Filch and his cat. He found the answer, Mrs Norris or whatever that thing is, it's mixed blood. It has the blood of kneazle.
Due to the abilities from that blood it's able to track them down. Damian wanted to do something when a he saw Snape patrolling the corridors, hearing their foot steps and yells from Filch, Snape also started chasing them. Damian planned to escape when the four entered the forbidden corridor.
' isn't that a place headmaster warned for students to never enter, he said those who enter that will have a very painful death ', Damian followed them inside. Seeing Filch's cat already near, they ran towards the end of the corridor and opened the door. They his behind it, these four idiots didn't even notice a massive creature sleeping there. It has three heads, it's huge and covered in black fur.
[ Fluffy ]
[ Gender : Male ]
[ Race : Mutant Magical Beast (Three-Headed Dog) ]
[ Bloodline : Cereberus ]
[ Special abilities : magic resistance (high), Giant's strength, enhanced senses ]
[ Remarks : A three headed dog that is assigned here to guard ????. Please maintain caution, magic has minimal effect on this one, and it has the strength that puts a troll to shame. It's jaws are powerful enough to crush a giant tree into splinters ]
' yep, looks like we walked into it's food bowl. Let's not wake him up, let's just leave calmly, May God has mercy on us all ', Damian joked to himself. Harry, Ron, Hermione and Nevile turned to see the dog at this moment. And Neville did something foolish. He screamed.
It woke up grogily and looked at them with bloodshot eyes. That furious and greedy look on it's face says it all.
' yep, looks like today is going to get much worse ', Damian thought bitterly, he took out his wand and cast Flippendo in full power as the dog charged at them. But he felt his body violently recoil, what can you expect, he is still developing, that recoil from the spell is pretty violent. Though it worked out well. The three headed dog got blasted to the end of the room hitting the wall.
Damian yelled," open the door and get out you idiots ", the four people who froze in terror immediately came back to their senses. Ron is the first one to react, he immediately grabbed the door and opened it while the dog charged at them once again.
Damian gritted his teeth, only physical damage can stop this thing. Should he resort to dark magic, no, for now he will take care of this like a new hard challenge. " Depulso ", a strong force once again sent the three headed dog back to the end of the room. It growled and looked at him. It stood up while shaking the three heads.
Damian hurriedly waved his wand and sent the other three guys directly into the corridor before he entered there and closed the door, then applied a locking charm on the handle. He then breathed a sigh of relief but then Hermione looked at him and said," blood. Damian you're bleeding from your nose and mouth. are you okay? ".
Damian frowned, he felt a warm sensation from his nose and corners of his mouth. He touched them, his blood is on his palms. He sighed and applied some healing magic, the recoil from the two spells is violent, it's his first situation to expend that much mana in a short time. He is already facing trouble from his obscurus now, along with this recoil out too much burden on his body for a short time. Looks like he needs to train his body to withstand this pressure from now on. His body isn't strong enough to support the output of his magic yet. pushing it beyond limit will result in something like this.
Harry asked," why don't we pay a visit to the infirmary? ", Damian denied," no need, I can do some healing magic, i can heal myself ", Ron asked," Are you sure? ", Damian nodded. Neville said," w-what even is a three headed dog doing there? ", Hermione said," didn't you notice there is a trap door ", Damian nodded," yes there is. seems like it's guarding something ", Ron exclaimed," guarding something? ".
Hermione said," yes, now I'll go to bed unless if own of you geniuses found more clever ways for us to die or worse expelled ", Hermione said before entering the Gryffindor common room. The fat lady is not at all pleased for someone waking her up in the middle of her nap.
" She got some issues man I'm telling you ", Ron said. Damian said," I'll also return to Slytherin dorms. Good night ", Harry called him," Damian ", Damian turned to him while Harry said," thank you ", Damian waved his hand," don't mention it. We're friends aren't we? ".
Harry nodded with a smile. And Damian turned invisible in front of them making them drop their jaws. " That is one bloody way to exit isn't it? Blimey, I'll ask him to teach me that later ", Ron exclaimed. Harry and others entered the common room while Damian went straight to the Room of Requirement and opened the book of rituals.
He saw the ritual to strengthen his body. The ingredients for this one aren't rare but he needs to rob Snape's potion supplies once again it seems.
Mandrake Root,
Blood of Manticore (100 ml),
Dragon blood (100 ml),
Pixie wings*2,
Merfolk skin,
Gills of Grindillow,
Blood of Squid (100 ml)
And few other common herbs, That is all he needs to do this ritual. Moreover doing this rituals will even help him later, his body will be strong enough to bear the ritual that let's him negate side effects of Obscurus. Or that's what he is thinking. He red the book of rituals again and reviewed the summary and effects of this rituals again and again to confirm this guess.
