Novel Bin Chapter 460 - 460. Severus' Lab
Chapter 460 – 460. Severus’ Lab
"That\'s sister Narcissa\'s baby." Magnus took Severus to the side and explained to him the whole situation. Knowing what had happened to her, he felt pity, wondering that perhaps this would have happened to his mother too if Magnus had not saved her.
Severus checked the baby boy, "Hmm, he\'s extremely malnourished. I believe since miss Black also seems malnourished, her milk didn\'t have the appropriate minerals for him. Good thing she found you on time, I don\'t think the boy has very long left if nothing is done. And you," he moved to check Narcissa.
Severus, when he gets into complete professional mode, he cares not who he\'s interacting with. He pulled Narcissa\'s eyelids, told her to show her teeth, checked her pulse and took blood samples. "Similarly, she\'s also malnourished. But she\'s an adult and could have survived. I can not feed them immediately or they will end up hurting themselves. Especially for the boy, I will need to feed him slowly over the period of this month and monitor him. I will have to make weaker potions for him. I reckon you can pay for all this?"
"It\'s all right, Sev. I will be paying for it. Have you named him, Narcissa?" Magnus asked.
She nodded, "I\'ve named him Draco… just that. I belong to no family right now,"
"Okay, let\'s get over with the unbreakable vow, that\'s still a deal if you want my protection." Magnus didn\'t forget the important bits.
She quickly agreed. Magnus made Emma stand as the witness and tap her wand. Narcissa\'s vows were clear, if she tried to betray Magnus, tried to teach her son in any form about his father and the Dark Lord, or if she herself tried to follow the ways of the Dark Lord or a blood supremacist then she would die.
While Magnus promised to provide Draco with a safe life as long as he doesn\'t start following the dark path. A white string of magic twisted around their clasped palms and sealed the deal.
"Where will you live now?" Magnus asked her.
"Wherever my son is." She answered.
Severus shrugged, "I was going to keep the kid with me, but you can take him to Saint Mungo if you want to. You can get a good room there,"
"I-I don\'t have any money at the moment. I can try to ask my sister for help. Until then, may I live at your home?" She asked nervously.
Severus shrugged, "Sure, I have a big home, it\'s also Christmas and new year soon, with someone to talk to my mother, she will finally stop pestering me in my experiments,"
"Thank you, Lord Prince, I am indebted to you," She kept her head low.
"Don\'t call me that, Magnus is going to remove the lord and lady aristocratic system from the wizarding world soon. Only nobles he anoints are to be called that. Now, follow me with the portkey, these two are celebrating their honeymoon, can\'t disturb their sweet time." He called her, holding a portkey in his hand.
Narcissa apologised to Emma and Magnus, "I am sorry to spoil your evening. I had no other choice but to come to you for help."
Emma just held her hand, "And you did nothing wrong. Magnus would have felt worse if news of you and your son\'s demise had reached him. Now go and have some rest please,"
Magnus nodded at her. Taking the queue, she left with Severus. Emma walked to Magnus and held his arm by her chest, "What did you see in her memory?"
"She was tortured by Lucius, sexually and mentally from the day she married him. Voldemort apparently wanted an heir from the Malfoy family so the boy could lay claim to Malfoy\'s wealth." He explained in the least words possible.
"And? Is there still Malfoy\'s wealth left?" She asked.
He scoffed, "Nope, not even the vault is there. It\'s now used by the Goblins to store their junk inventions. All their wealth was taken away by me to fund projects for the British magical circle. Anyway, let\'s continue our night."
…
London, Severus\' house.
He arrived with Narcissa and Draco. She lacked any luggage or possessions so it was weird to provide her stuff. But when Eileen Prince returned from her shopping at the food market, she nearly took out her wand, "What is she doing here?"
Severus quickly walked to his mother and took her to the side to explain everything. As he expected, just knowing that Narcissa shared a similar and worse fate as her made Eileen sad for her.
She rushed to see the baby boy, "He\'s so… thin. I will make a fresh hot dinner for you all."
"No, mother. Don\'t, the boy can\'t eat food, it\'s for his own good. Miss Black can, however. I will take Draco and give him the supplements," Severus took the baby from Narcissa.
"UWAAAA!" Immediately he started to cry and kicked Severus\' face. Narcissa took him back and the boy stopped crying.
"I will come with you, he\'s been very irritated for the past few days. Miss Prince, please don\'t cook for me, I am already imposing myself on you. I will return soon to cook food myself." She said, feeling like a burden on others.
"Oh, come on, dear. You have a baby to care for. And besides, this house remains so silent and ghostly all the time, Severus also stays busy doing his Deputy Headmaster work. It\'ll be a nice change to hear a child\'s giggles. You go, I will cook food, and I have the elfs for help." Eileen Prince happily walked away. She truly lacked friends.
Severus led Narcissa to his giant underground research lab and gestured to her to take a seat on the couch. She looked around in awe, it was as if she was in a different world, so many magical things were happening, rows and rows of shelves were erect around them, each having thousands of potion bottles, some glowing and some giving a dangerous aura. There were also some elfs working, the new thing was they all had clean and new clothes.
~Magnus and his friends are in a league of their own. Likes of Voldemort and Lucius never stood a chance against experts such as these. That Ragnar is supposed to be an even bigger genius in potions, I wonder what his labs look like.~ she thought to herself.
Severus soon concocted a new potion for the kid, one that also tasted sweet. He handed the vial to Narcissa. "Here, feed this to him,"
She gently dropped droplets into his mouth. Draco seemed to love it as he giggled and asked for more by opening his mouth wide. This was after so long she saw her son smile so happily. "Thank you,"
"It\'s okay. He\'s a little baby with no prior thought processing, he\'s like a blank slate. He cannot be punished for the crimes of his father." Severus said and returned to his work desk, he put on goggles and started to work on something.
There was an awkward silence now, only Draco\'s giggles were resounding in the giant basement. She decided to take the lead, "Are you the Deputy Headmaster of Hogwarts now? Sorry, I was chained by Lucius for the past 10 years, I don\'t know much about the outside world."
Severus got up, walked to the library section and took out a few newspapers, he gave them to her, "Much has changed, not just for muggles but for wizards too. Magnus is basically the strongest wizard in the world, recognised by the ICW itself. He also ascended the throne and now holds the British Throne. The United Kingdom is now more than double its size. And yes, I am the headmaster of Hogwarts, but not the one in Scotland. There are now 3 more Hogwarts, one in Brunei, one in Zimbabwe and one in the Falkland Islands. I am the Deputy Headmaster of the Brunei branch.
"Oh, the wizards of the United Kingdom also consider Magnus their king, he\'s unofficially named Wizard King."
(⊙ˍ⊙)
Narcissa just blankly stared at Severus\' face, trying to understand if he was joking, but from his stoic face, she knew it was all real. She gasped, "T-The world has changed so much, Merlin\'s beard, the magical world seems unrecognisable."
"It\'s just the start, by the way, did I tell you, Magnus just set up a colony of muggles and wizards on the Moon." He added.
(*￣０￣)
Now her jaw was dropping. Severus chuckled for a second at that.
