Chapter 49 - Level 27[p5]. Time for some explanation! (1/2)

Sirius, as well as all the ȧduŀts around me, were holding wands pointing them at me.

I was enjoying this, mostly due to adrenalin and because I was indulging in my anger, I was feeling exhilarated. It was this short-lived feeling when you give in to your emotion and just let yourself went. When your rage turns into an actual fight or a beating. Do you become angrier, yes! But nonetheless, there is that small feeling of satisfaction coming in with that additional anger.

These factors fueled me forward. My whole body was screaming at me to fight them, while my mind tried to find good reasoning for that fight, already making excuses. Doubts started appearing in my mind about how it's going to go from here. I knew that depending on what I do, my future can be very different.

I need to calm down. I do deep breaths and slowly exhale. Does it help with rage boiling inside? Nope, but it helps to get over that rage.

”Drop your wands down.” I calmly say to them. I am giving them a chance.

”Mr.Magnus, you are not welcome in our house. Please leave.” Mister Weasley said to me.

”Trust me, I will!” I snorted and looked at Hermione and then at the amulet I had on my neck.

I was reminded of the promise once more. Oh how I wish I had a character, that doesn't give a snack about his promises and breaks them when convenient.

”Granger, you have disappointed me, but I made a promise to be your friend once,” Then I throw a second amulet that looks exactly the same as the one on my neck at the table and continues, ”so I will keep that promise. Using this amulet you can contact me anytime. Just think about me while holding it. That will do the trick.”

Then I looked at all people standing in the room and finally, my gaze stopped at the Potter.

”Grow up, before snarling at me.”

Then there was a sound of something popping off and I disappeared.

Apparition is certainly a great tool to have a dramatic exit.

That person's thoughts were a mess after witnessing Magnus prowess in magic. Arthur entered only after he heard shouts coming from the kitchen, so he missed the spectacle as for Molly she didn't pay any heed to his magic skills.

But Sirius has witnessed the whole thing and he saw how Magnus casts magic without a wand or even words. He literally just moved a hand and magic was made. Although it is possible to cause magic under the influence of emotion, that response was too precise and calculated. Normally underage magic and spontaneous emotional magic are very close to intent magic, but that magic is most of the time very strong, but not very good in terms of accuracy.

This, on the other hand, was too accurate. His talent is monstrous. Maybe he even more talented than Voldemort. Does Dumbledore know about this?

*Back to Magnus POV*

All angry I apparated to London. There I asked some passerby about the closest inn or hotel. Then I went to the best one, closest to me to rest.

An hour later, I was lying in the bed of a luxury hotel after having a good bath, thinking about the reasons for my anger.

And surprisingly I found reasons quite fast. For 3 years, I was wearing a mask of friendliness and remained passive to not break canon.

Moreover, any impulsive action of mine was instantly regretted by me. My promise to Hermione was purely emotional. There were probably hundreds of ways to lead conversation without any promises.

Then there was that moment with a dragon egg when I told Harry that he didn't put on his invisibility cloak, which ended up with me carrying that shitty egg 3 times.

I was truly enjoying anything I wanted. Moreover, the prime reason for staying close to MC disappeared. I needed his protection, but with my magic prowess, I might not be the best fighter, but escaping was always an option.

Without the mask, my personality became unbound. And the more powerful I will be becoming, the less will be the need to keep appearances, especially with the ”Speech” skill on the higher levels.

Is it bad? Is it good? I don't know. But getting so angry over such a thing was indeed a bit too rash, even if I was annoyed with the whole topic.

Anyway, I have a better topic to concentrate on.

'Athena, I am alone now. Time for some explanation, I'd say. What do you think?'

[Indeed. What would you like to know?]

'Hm... Well, let's start from the beginning. You told me that me changing something is pointless. Why?'

[All Universes has one Time, but multiple timelines which are located close to each other. No matter how much you change the timeline, it won't change. It will just split into a new timeline, so there will be an original one where nothing changed and yours where your change happened.]

'Wait so you are saying that throughout my life, with me returning back and forth I cloned myself over hundred of times?'
