After both interviews, which did not last long, James' lunch break was over. He could not eat, but he did not care. He had passed the OWL exam in transfiguration, and on this very day, he would have his first advanced transfiguration class.
James accompanied by McGonagall headed to the sixth-year transfiguration classroom. The corridors were already empty. All the students were in their respective classrooms having their corresponding classes.
McGonagall was always punctual, and t...

"As you know to work in the council outcast police, you must have control of your skills and improve your power. So in the next class, we will have training. We will have a direct elimination tournament. The groups you put together will face each other," said Charles.
Many students had glesparkles in their eyes. Working on the outcast council was the dream of many. They were especially working on the outcast police force. Where the real action was. Not in the bureaucratic part of the co...

"Nevermore was founded by Nathaniel Faulkner in 1791. He was a centenarian vampire who was highly respected by the entire American outcast community. Before founding Nevermore, he traveled the world cataloging every outcast community," explained the Marginal History professor with slowness and laziness in his tone, or so it seemed.
Luke found himself at the desk in the back, fighting sleep. History classes were boring. It reminded him of Harry Potter's History of Magic, which was always...

It wasn't easy to calm all the students after James' speech. Several professors had to intervene, saying that they would investigate the case and not let Pandora or other victims suffer again.
Emma, Tianne, and the other two girls, upon arriving in the great hall, received hostile looks from all the tables. Who knew these classy and graceful-acting girls would have such black hearts?
Proving the evil deeds of Emma and company was easy for the professors. In addition to Pandora's (...

1313 Cemetery Lane.
On a vacant lot, surrounded by swamps and a moat, stands a stately, somber mansion. From the outside, the mansion is an imposing and decadent sight. The facade was covered in foliage and twisted vines.
The knockers and mailbox seem to have a life of their own, like grotesque guardians watching over the main entrance.
Entering the mansion reveals a labyrinth of secret corridors and hidden rooms. The interior is adorned with strange objects and macabre stat...

Luke opened his eyes slowly. The sun's rays were streaming through the curtains in his room, illuminating his face a little.
'What time is it...?' thought Luke, looking around. He noticed a black hair resting on his chest.
'Oh yeah... We did it,' thought Luke, remembering the night before. He lost his virginity to Emily. A hot girl he barely knew. He didn't even know her last name.
Who knew that before he had his first time, he murdered a person. It wasn't as pleasurable an ...

Pandora was walking down the corridors of Hogwarts next to James in the direction of the Great Hall. She was still processing everything that had just happened a few minutes ago.
The image of Emma Parkinson being blown up by a non-verbal Expelliarmus was a huge shock. The rumors about James were true. Magical prowess on an incredible level for a third-year boy.
“Will you be alright? Emma will report you to the professors, and you'll be punished,” said Pandora after a few secon...

“To eat here or to go?” asked a girl with black hair as she looked at Luke.
“Eat here. Get out of that house with the blinds closed for a bit and enjoy some fresh air,” said Edgar quickly.
[We're in a local. Not in the fresh air] said Luke mentally.
“Sit near the window and watch the scenery,” said Edgar without losing patience.
[The expensive house I rent has better views] said Luke.

James finished his last exam. He left the classroom that had been ordered exclusively for him and began to walk through the halls of Hogwarts while thinking about the exam.
This exam was different from the previous ones. Much more difficult and rigorous. It was a good challenge for James. It was administered by the Magical Testing Authority. A group of wizards and witches examined the students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry during their OWL and NEWT exams.
Usually, ...

'Oh, sooner than I imagined,' thought Luke with a faint smile. This means more money for him, as the production company that wants to film Carrie will have to pay for adaptation rights.
“How much will they pay for adaptation rights?” asked Luke. He had no power in this, as with his contract with the publisher, they had the bargaining power. However, his contract explicitly stated that he would retain a portion of the adaptation rights.
“You're quieter than I expected,...

Several days had passed since Luke left Jericho. He had already settled into the Umbrio mansion. Rather, in one of the mansions belonging to this wealthy family of outcasts.
The Umbrio family had important business dealings in both normie and outcast society. So, their wealth was at the top of the outcast families, although their history was not old.
Luke stayed in the largest mansion of all, as it was that of his grandfather, Stalin Umbrio. The current leader of the Umbrio ...

“Where could she be?” wondered a boy walking down the large, long corridors of Hogwarts.
The boy had messy blond hair and was wearing the Ravenclaw robes, which were a bit dirty for some reason. This was Xenophilius Lovegood. The famous journalist from the Meddler. Though hardly anyone knew of the journalist's identity.
Since Eustace was caught, the Meddler has disappeared. Xeno was sad about this, but they had to stop or they could be caught by the p...

After today's class was over, Luke left the classroom and began to make his way to his dorm room. It was only a short time before exams and the end of the school year.
As he turned one of the hallway corners, he could see a makeshift altar of sorts.
In the center was a smiling photograph of Sabrina Spellman, or rather, Sabrina Jones. Many flowers of different colors decorated the picture. There were four red candles lit, and they didn't seem to melt.

Luke was sitting in Principal Weems' office. There were Natasha, Veronica, the principal herself, and two people Luke didn't want to converse with.
His grandfather and his uncle are on his mother's side.
His uncle's name was William Umbrio. He was older than Sophie, Luke's mother, and Veronica's father. He is an elegant, well-dressed middle-aged man. He had a neat beard and sky-blue eyes, just like Luke.
To Luke, he is like the stereotypical successful businessma...

The month of May had begun. It had been a few days since the end of the tragic Poe Cup, where Sabrina Jones was burned to death in an attack by an unidentified group.
Luke learned that Sabrina was an orphaned psychic. That was her false identity, just as Luke lived in a normie orphanage. Luke didn't know whether to laugh at this. It seemed she copied his background. It was rare to see orphaned psychics, but that didn't mean they didn't exist, and the last name Jones was common in the No...

James created quite a stir at the Gryffindor table when he said he was leaving the team. He had his reasons. His routine is very demanding, and having three days of training that lasts more than an hour makes things very difficult for him.
The most important thing now is to improve his strength, and his social relations and prepare for the war against Voldemort and his death eaters. The war is already happening. Although in silence and in skirmishes on the part of the death eaters who w...

The site of the fight between Luke and the hooded people was a mess. There were roots on the ground everywhere, burned parts, and a log lying on its side.
Luke rushed over to Enid. The person who had saved her was Andrew, her older brother. He had used the full werewolf form to get a faster speed.
Andrew was already in human form, hugging Enid. His condition was not very good. He had several cuts and wounds.
“Are you okay, Enid?” asked Luke, concerned.

Luke's fury increased when he saw the state Enid was in. Her red robe had several cuts where blood was oozing out of her skin.
Luckily, the wounds did not appear to be deep and serious. The white mask was no longer on Enid's face. Her expression looked as if her mother had died. She looked like she had cried a lot.
"Enid, are you okay?” shouted Luke, who wanted to crush these bastards, but if he made a move, Enid's life would be in danger.
“Luke...” said Enid. Her eyes...

The translation of the riddle that Regulus, Snape, and Gwen solved was as follows:
[Where the shadow grows thick and time seems to stand still, you will find the entrance. Between the oak and hawthorn, the hidden portal awaits. Follow the brooklet westward until the water disappears. There, under the light of the full moon, look for the sign of the centaur in the forbidden forest].
With this translation, it was easy to realize that the vault was in the forbidden forest.

“Crush them without mercy!” encouraged Edgar from the side.
Luke didn't hesitate. The tree sped toward the two hooded men, who could do nothing to avoid it.
A deafening roar was heard as the tree crashed into the hooded men. The ground shook under the impact, and the earth rose in a cloud of dust and fallen leaves.
Both were sent flying through the air like kites. The werewolf grunted in pain as his muscles tensed to resist the impact, but it was all to no avail. He went...

Luke was running alongside Andrew in the direction of the crypt. The island was covered with dense vegetation, with trees swaying gently in the breeze. The sun's rays filtered through the leaves.
Luke again heard an angry shout similar to when they were in the canoes. It was again Veronica's annoying ex-boyfriend running at an incredible speed without caring where he stepped.
This time, he partially transformed his body into a werewolf's form. His arms and legs were covered ...

Luke paddled without paying much attention. He was only looking towards the canoe where Enid and Sabrina were. Ever since he saw his girlfriend as a representative of her bedroom he started to get a bad feeling.

He wasn't afraid to confront Sabrina's plans. He was confident in de...

Lily had grown a few inches since James last saw her. Her fiery red hair falls in soft waves to her shoulders. Her eyes are a deep green and she has freckles, scattered delicately over her nose and cheeks.
