Chapter 100: Harry

Shawn thought Harry and Ron were being rather too sincere.

"Yes," Ron said, face scarlet, expression resigned. He needed those notes too badly to back down.

Harry dropped his gaze, tense.

"All right," Shawn said with a nod.

Professor Snape was waiting in the dungeons. Harry and Ron had surprised him, certainly, but he did not intend to waste time here.

"He is nothing like we thought," Ron said, relief flooding his face the moment it was...

Chapter 99: Apology

"We have never seen that Green at training," Wood had said, pacing anxiously back and forth in the mud. His boots squelched and caked with filth, but he paid no mind.

"He must be Ravenclaw's secret weapon. Just like you, Harry. You have to help the team get to the bottom of this. Only you can do it, Harry.

"If we go, we will tip our hand. Those Ravenclaws will never let us know the truth. They are the cleverest schemers in the school. View Post

Chapter 98: The Guidance Method

October brought more than just the cold. It brought a week of howling wind and hammering rain.

Sunday's weather was as foul as ever. Icy drops drummed against the windows, and the gale shrieked around the turrets.

Through a corridor window, Shawn saw an enormous figure bundled in a long moleskin coat and rabbit‑fur gloves, out by the broomstick sheds on the Quidditch pitch, clearing frost from the brooms.

The wretche...

Chapter 97: Finite

Transfiguration, Finite, and the Disillusionment Charm.

That was the combat spell set Shawn had drawn up for himself. Each gave him a different tool: attack, defence, concealment.

His priority now was to grind the latter two up to Expert, sharpen his real‑world combat ability, and unlock the Proficient title in Charms.

Spell difficulty would spike sharply after The Standard Book of Spells, Grade 4. He needed to be ready.

Chapter 96: The Pilgrim

[You brewed a Deflating Draught at Expert level, Proficiency +50]

The Draught was now at Entry‑level. Exhausted as he was, Shawn's heart pounded with exhilaration.

He had climbed another rung on the ladder Libatius Borage had built, and taken one more step into the domain of will‑guided potions.

When he looked up, he met Professor Snape's eyes, blazing with fury.

The consequence of improvising was this: bey...

Chapter 130: First Meeting with Netero × Sun Breathing Mastered

Shinsuke's yelling nearly sprayed spit all over Roy's face.

Fortunately, Fukuda intervened in time, locking his neck in a hold. Crack. He gave Roy a quiet morning.

The short blade hung quietly on the south wall. Giyu Tomioka, Sabito, Makomo, and the others gathered around. Roy glanced at Sakonji Urokodaki. The master was busy in the kitchen as usual. Roy smiled. "It went into my dream with me."

Chapter 129: Will Scissors × Conception of Shu

Zoldyck?

Botobai's thick eyebrows furrowed slightly beneath his deeply wrinkled brow. He snorted, expelling two jets of air like dragons from his nostrils. "Too bad it is not Silva Zoldyck."

He had heard that man's name many times and had seen him at a few gatherings, but they had never crossed paths. It was a regret.

Still, Beans saw his straightforward demeanor and remembered that someone was still in the Chairman's o...

Chapter 128: Golden Crow's Glare × Netero's Special Treatment

Gotoh was a professional. Unlike Rika, he rarely laughed.

He adjusted his glasses and studied the golden crow carefully, silently committing the name "Sol" to memory.

Everything around them had been reduced to an inferno entirely thanks to Sol. The young butler would not underestimate the creature just because it looked plump and adorable.

After all, it was the Young Master's Nen beast. View Post

Chapter 127: The Kiriko Family's Shock × Two Old Men's Silence

Humans were humans. Magical beasts were magical beasts. Each had its own territory.

Cities on land belonged to humans. Jungles and swamps belonged to magical beasts. But at some point, humans began multiplying faster and faster, encroaching on beast territory, hunting them down. Meat for food, hides for clothing, heads for trophies. The beasts were driven back with nowhere to go, their living space ...

Chapter 126: Roy's Nen Beast × Three-Legged Golden Crow

Specks of light manifested and gathered into the shape of the short blade, reappearing on the south wall.

Giyu Tomioka and Sakonji Urokodaki, who had not yet fallen asleep, got up and lit the oil lamp to examine it closely. The latter ran his fingers along the blade. "It is Eiichiro's short blade, no mistake."

Everyone exchanged glances.

They looked at one another, speechless. A blade that could "travel" on its...

Chapter 125: Remnant Flame Blade × The Strongest Human's Covetousness

"A ghost!"

Shinsuke had been crouched on the beam. When he heard the noise and looked down, he yelped and dove behind Fukuda.

A ghost calling out ghosts. Who the hell are you talking about?

Fukuda grabbed Shinsuke by the neck and twisted. Crack. The room went silent.

"It is not a demon," Sakonji Urokodaki said. Aside from Tanjiro, he had the sharpest sense of smell of anyone alive.

Chapter 124: First Conjuration × Netero Gets a Warning

Not just Nen beasts. They should be called Conjurer-type Nen beasts, to be precise.

Roy studied the old woman and the group of "children" behind her. Like Kite's Crazy Slots, they appeared to have physical form—something ordinary people could touch and perceive. Naturally, that meant Rika, who had not yet opened her aura nodes, could see them too.

In the original story, Gon, Leorio, and Kurapika had been able to see...

After disembarking at Dolley Island, Roy and his two companions walked into the sunlight.

The boy's gaze drifted toward the distant peak, found the tall cedar tree, and his nose twitched. Faint sounds of magical beasts reached his ears.

Probably the Kiriko.

Gotoh followed behind Roy, scanning left and right, always guarding the young master's safety.

Rika clearly lacked his professionalism. Her pretty eyes darted eve...

Chapter 122: Dead Calm vs Phantom Blade × Mark Seam's Kind Warning

What is water?

It is the surge of waves, the meandering stream, the great river, and the boundless sea. It is the thin porridge that one eats, the wellspring of life that sustains the body.

Everyone understands it differently, but without exception, all thought about water eventually points back to human perception.

Sakonji Urokodaki sat on a stump, carving a mask. Rough bark peeled away, sharp edges...

Tanjuro's face, his voice, and his gentle smile seemed to hover just before Roy's eyes. He had always looked at his son with such warmth, like a quiet orchid blooming in the first touch of spring.

That small home would remain under his father's watch. As for the wider world outside it, Roy tightened his grip on the blade.

He swept it horizontally. "Water Breathing - Fourth Form: Striking T...

Clang.

The short blade met the Nichirin Blade.

Roy’s forearm corded with veins as he drove his sword down.

Power surged from the short blade into the Nichirin steel and crashed straight into Giyu Tomioka’s arm.

A flicker passed through Giyu’s cool eyes. His elbow bent under the force. He had not expected Roy’s strength to be this overwhelming.

It was in no way inferior to the demons he had fought. I...

Roy had no objection to joining the Demon Slayer Corps. In fact, once he graduated, if he wanted to kill more demons and stockpile life energy, he would need the Corps’ intelligence network behind him.

If Ubuyashiki wanted to see him, then he would show what he could...

Chapter 117: Netero’s Vision × Giyu Tomioka’s Shock

Power gathered too tightly in one pair of hands always breeds problems.

First, a rigid organization cannot adapt. It fails to respond quickly to a changing world, and crucial information or crises are delayed, distorted, or simply mishandled, leading to bad decisions.

Second, without real oversight, concentrated authority slips easily into corruption and abuse.

In the potions chamber.

Leonardo studied the seven oddly shaped bottles on the table for only a moment before pointing to the smallest.

“This ‘dwarf’ bottle will take you forward, through the black fire.”

Then he indicated the one on the far right.

“And this will take you back, through the purple fire.”

He went on to name each of the remaining bottles as poison or wine.

With each passing day, Shawn grew more familiar with Hogwarts.

He could have walked to the dungeons with his eyes closed and never once brushed the wall.

The ingredient cabinets were his storerooms now. He could, without looking, point to where most potion components were kept.

His practice notebook for Potions was already full, forcing him to tuck Master Libatius Borage’s notes between the pages of a second.

Sometimes he felt...

Fourth floor of Hogwarts Castle.

In one of the rooms lay a very bored dog. It had three huge, ferocious heads; one was turning to look around, another had its eyes shut in feigned sleep…

With a soft creak, the wooden door opened.

All three of Fluffy’s heads snapped up to stare at the doorway.

He was about to bare his teeth and bark when the scent from outside reached him. His tail began to wag instead.

In the Great Hall.

It was close to mealtime, but there were not many students at the tables.

End‑of‑year exams were looming. Most of Hogwarts had already sunk beyond rescue into the sea of revision.

Fifth‑ and seventh‑years in particular were bent double over their books, facing OWLs and NEWTs, the exams that would shape the course of their futures.

He needed more speed.

Fortunately, these Bludgers had been weakened considerably. That, combined with Shawn’s Proficient flying, made them easy enough to dodge.

Madam Hooch loosed the ball. The leather Quaffle, twelve inches across, shot out like a nimble bird.

Shawn locked onto it. The wind roared louder in his ears. In a heartbeat, his magic brushed the braking charm built into the broom....

Even so, a thin thread of nerves ran through him. There wa...
