Harry Potter: The Atypical Alchemist

Harry's interference and Dobby's betrayal made Malfoy very angry, but as an adult, he certainly couldn't easily express his feelings on his face.

As he turned the corner, Malfoy controlled his expression to become calm again.

Now that I have come to Hogwarts, I must visit my son.

However, as he walked around Hogwarts and walked towards the Great Hall, he saw a second person who almost made him lose control of his emotions.

——Stone Cape.

Draco had a conflict with this man and suffered a loss at his hands. After learning about this incident, he wanted to intervene, but before he could take any action, he received a request from the Krum family. of letters.

Everyone is a respectable family, and they don't interfere in the private affairs of other families. But I don't know what this Stone Cape is capable of, and he can actually ask Krum's patriarch to... intercede for him.

The word "please" is still a bit implicit, and threatening may be more appropriate.

Malfoy wouldn't have even given it a second glance if it were a threat from other families, but not Krum's.

They were enemies in the camp more than ten years ago, but the other party's behavior was even more brutal than theirs, and they were on the right team. They relied on black magic to forcefully squeeze into the winner's team, becoming one of the few today. A family that openly uses dark magic without being condemned by the wizarding world.

If a family like this wants to cause trouble for Malfoy, they really can't stop it.

And with their endorsement, the matter of Draco being injured by that boy could only be left alone.

Now seeing Stone Cape, Malfoy's expression changed, and he was angry with a little embarrassment.

No matter what the reason was, that boy's arrogance remained the same, but he was timid.

But just as he was thinking about what to say so as not to lose his standing, Stone... just ignored him and walked straight through the auditorium and turned to the corridor.

... ...

When you have murderous intentions towards someone and have already taken action, the most important thing is not to let the other person notice your malicious intentions.

Stone was afraid that he couldn't bear it, so he just ignored Malfoy.

Moreover, he did have something else to do. Just now, a classmate ran over and said that Dumbledore was looking for him. He was just thinking about Dumbledore's purpose and how he should answer.

After thinking about it... For a wizard like Dumbledore, Stone didn't believe that he had never learned Legilimency. He would definitely not be able to hide it if he lied, so he could only answer truthfully.

In the principal's office, Stone saw Harry who had just come out, followed by a house elf.

Just right, you don't need to say the password again.

After saying hello to Harry and the house elf, Stone climbed the spiral staircase.

"Da da-"

"--sit."

After sitting down, Stone asked:

"Do you have anything to do with me?"

"I do have some questions." Dumbledore asked with a smile. "I understand that you once participated in the investigation, but half-withdrawn after the vacation. You did not join until Miss Granger was attacked. Can I ask why?"

"Actually, there is still one step missing."

"Huh?" Dumbledore bowed forward, waiting for Stone's follow-up words.

So Stone continued:

"At the beginning, I had a guess that you let the basilisk go in order to test Harry. Although some things happened in the middle, such as some classmates being petrified, you being suspended, etc., which made me a little shaken, but in the end Fox The arrival still confirms my point of view...is this correct?"

Dumbledore smiled silently.

And Stone hesitated:

"So, when the rumors of the Chamber of Secrets first appeared, I ignored them. But when the first student was attacked, I felt a sense of crisis... After all, I am also a Muggle-born wizard, so I joined them. .

As for quitting in the second half of the holiday...it was because of a Christmas trip. I discovered that our ancestors had wizards and could not be considered pure Muggles, so I relaxed until Hermione was attacked. ...You should know my relationship with Hermione, right? "

"Yeah." Dumbledore nodded softly, "It's good to be young."

"Hehe~"

"Can you tell me about your family? Your parents are..."

"Strictly speaking, no." Stone knew what Dumbledore meant and immediately shook his head, "My grandfather is not a wizard. He may be a squib, but my parents don't count."

"So it was out of revenge that you joined Harry and the others in investigating and dealing with the basilisk?"

"Yes."

"Then you should know..."

"Is it a diary?" Stone interrupted Dumbledore again, "I know what is going on, but there is no evidence, and I am only a second-year wizard, so..."

After hearing Stone's answer, Dumbledore looked at him as if to read something from his expression.

But Stone remained calm, and every answer he gave was true, but every answer was only half of what he said, so it was not a lie.

Although I don't know if Dumbledore saw any flaws, he did not ask any more questions. After smiling gently, he said with interest:

"You want to know what I just talked about with Harry?"

"......You say."

In fact, he was not interested, but Dumbledore took the lead in changing the subject, and Stone was happy about it.

"He told me that the Sorting Hat judged him to be more suitable for Slytherin... I remember that it judged you the same way at that time, right?"

"…your answer to him?"

"I say his own choice is more important."

"I also chose Ravenclaw."

"I know." Dumbledore said, "You didn't choose Slytherin because you misjudged your origin, right?"

There was nothing to hide, Stone nodded.

And Dumbledore then asked:

"Then what if I give you another chance to choose?"

"..."

Stop testing! Stop testing!

Stone sighed helplessly and said:

"Still Ravenclaw... If I knew my family's past in advance, then in my first year, I might choose my own house based on the judgment of the Sorting Hat... But now I have I have been studying at Hogwarts for two years and I really like the learning atmosphere of Ravenclaw, but Slytherin is too troublesome."

"It doesn't refer to Slytherin's selection conditions." Stone added, "but to their overall atmosphere...blood theory, class distinction, and respecting the strong are fine, but the first two points, Disgusting.”
