Harry Potter and the Prince of Slytherin 35 Bug Problem pt.2

1) There will be no cultivation related things like I previously said I will keep it as real to the harry potter world as possible.

2) Dragon bloodline is weird like there isn't even Dragon and human hybrid. And by giving him the power of Dragon's the whole story will go sideways and be more illogical. So basically what I am trying to say is dragon bloodline is impossible but I will give Draco a bloodline but not an overpowered and impractical one like a Dragon.

3) Jesus Christ, too many people read xianxia novels and get's things confused. You guys should check other novels out where you can understand more things than just cultivation.

4) I will not make MC OP because if I do that then I will have to make the villain OP as well, so at the end, it will be no different.

The news article was printed out with a picture of Draco, Lucius, and Fudge standing together chatting outside the ministry. If a person looks close enough they can quickly figure out that the picture was taken secretly but the wizards and witches didn't care about that at all. The news spread like wildfire and everyone was concerned about Draco, being the next dark lord. Some muggle-born wizards, who still feared Voldemort even went as far to sent letters to Dumbledore and other professor requesting them to keep an eye on Draco Black and Harry Potter and to hand them over to authorities if any suspicious activity was found. The dark wizards, however, were the complete opposite, instead of being scared they were ready to come out from their hiding and support Draco if he really wants to finish what has been started. The news caused quite a ruckus and the Christmas spirit they had was all gone. Harry was also somehow cut in the misfire and was brooding over it.

Lucius threw the newspaper angrily, "How can they say such things?"

"People are paranoid, especially wizards and witches who take things like this way too seriously than they should." Draco said calmly sitting on the sofa, "I knew we shouldn't have held the party at the party house, we should have just done it in our home."

"Yeah! But the preparation would take too much time and with you going back to Hogwarts tomorrow, there wouldn't be any time to celebrate it." Lucius said

"Well, I don't really care." Draco said, "I knew some wizards and witches had already painted me as this next uprising Dark lord in their mind besides they even put Potter in the mix, he was literally the person connected to Voldemort's disappearances but they still suspect him to be the next dark lord."

"Hmph! I wonder how those people got wind of it." Narcissa said, "And such close information, did someone leaked the news outside?"

"It's impossible." Lucius answered, "I am sure that no one will be willing to betray us, especially after we gained more power, now with Draco being a Black, our family is stronger than it has ever been."

"You are forgetting something, Mother." Draco said, "The news doesn't have all the information like Sirius still owning all the property legally. It just says that I am the new head of the Black family, meaning the person who leaked it only knew things we announced in the party."

"You mean there was a spy?" Narcissa asked realizing things.

"Yes, I am sure there was one at the party." Draco replied, "Father can you tell me the name of the person who wrote the article?"

"It's Rita Skeeter" Lucius replied."That woman always manages to get secret information without anyone noticing."

Hearing that name, Draco's eyes lit up. Rita Skeeter he knew. Rita Skeeter a journalist at Daily Prophet who desired to be an author. Rita's news are very popular and it could even be called, enchantingly nasty. Enchanting, because of her writing skills where she wrote things making an article very fun and interesting to read and nasty because more than half of the article would be filled with lies. People who she wrote an article on, knew how disgusting and fake she could be but other people blindly believed her or at least kept her articles in mind. Rita had previously sent a letter to Draco asking him for an interview which he just ignored considering her habit but now it looks like she took the matter into her own hands.

With Rita being a secret Animagus and a beetle at that, made her spying very easy. Even though she couldn't get into restricted space like here in the Malfoy Manor without being noticed, she could pretty much spy on people anytime she wanted and this time she probably did the same as well.

"I am going to get her." Narcissa said, she had heard about the deeds of Rita but didn't expect that witch to go against her son.

"Calm down, mother, getting angry isn't necessary." Draco said, "I am sure Rita has thousands of complaints against her but no one will do anything against her because the Prophet is protecting her and would not fire her considering her fame among readers, besides with our connection with the Prophet, Rita didn't completely bash me either as she could have said things that were a lot worse."

"Worse?" Narcissa snorted, "What is worse than calling you the next Dark Lord?"

"Rita's news is more like a fictional story than a real one, if she wanted she could have painted me as the Dark Lord already than a potential one and besides she pointed fingers at Potter as well, making the attention shift a little from me and since Potter's fame is much bigger than mine and with him related to Voldemort, I am sure he is getting the worse out of it."

'In fact, even I am surprised at the fact, that she didn't make up some fictional story against me.' Draco thought

Harry was already a primary suspect for the role of the next Dark Lord, due to some rumors that surfaced around after the question how he defeated Voldemort arose in peoples mind and due to the newspaper mentioning Draco with the potential of being the next Dark Lord, Old rumors related to Potter rose up as well.

"Draco is right." Lucius said calming down, "I know the editors and the owner of the Daily Prophet, and besides they didn't directly attack us either and as Draco mentioned there are a lot of complaints against Rita Skeeter but none of them have been taken seriously considering the lack of evidence against her."

"So you are telling me that we need to let her go because of not having any evidence." Narcissa said snorting.

"No, but we will attack when the chance is right." Draco said, "If we attack her now, without any proof, people will surely believe that I am a dark wizard trying to hide my secrets and besides I wanted to announce the news of me inheriting the Black family sooner or later, so people won't keep confusing me with a Malfoy and with this the news is surely spread all over the wizarding community within Europe."

"Sigh! Next time we need to increase our security." Narcissa said. "But I am not leaving her for this."

"Yeah! this is indeed a valuable lesson." Draco nodded. 'and it's going to be very interesting.' Draco thought to smirk.

----------------------------------------------------------

Tomorrow he was going back to Hogwarts, so he slept early to get a good rest.

Draco opened his eyes slowly, to find himself staring at the dimly lit, unfamiliar ceiling. He slowly stood up and looked around, right now it looked like he was inside a cave of some sort.

'So it happened again.' Draco thought, he was much calmer than before as he was already getting used to the whole dream thing.

Draco looked at his clothes, which were the same as the clothes he had slept in and the only difference was that he was holding the Gryffindor sword from the very beginning this time. Draco gripped the sword tightly and looked around to see if there were any creatures that could attack him this time but after a while, he finally calmed down finding nothing of that sort.

He looked around to find an exit but there wasn't any, the place was barely lit with the light coming out from the holes in the ceiling. Draco thought for a while and decided to walk down a random path. Draco wasn't much afraid of what was going to happen since he believed that he was going to wake up in his room even if he died, so he wanted to explore this weird dream more than just stand there. The path he chose looked never-ending as it kept going on and on, and its size kept changing as well, sometimes the path was wide enough to walk freely and sometimes it was so narrow that he had to squeeze his way through.

As Draco kept walking deeper and deeper into the cave, he started hearing strange noises and as he kept walking towards it, the noises changed into voices and it seemed like there were a couple of people in there.

"Who goes there?" A voice called out.

Draco kept walking towards the voice until he reached the reached the source of the voice.

"I am just lost." Draco replied looking at the group of five people in front of him. There were 3 women and 2 men, and among them was a very beautiful woman in particular that Draco noticed.

'Another woman from the painting.' Draco thought looking at the beautiful girl in front of him. The girl wasn't too tall neither too short and had beautiful brown curly hair with glistening brown eyes.

"Lost?" One of the men in the group sneered.

"I just woke up in this place." Draco said shrugging his shoulders while his eyes never left the girl.

"What are you staring at?" The next man who was taller than the other one said, "Haven't you got any manners?"

Draco looked at the tall sturdy man, with silver armor and a sword on his waist. The man's face was scarred enough to make him look like a mob boss you would have to fight in an RPG game, making him look extremely ugly.

"I have been walking in this weird cave for 2 hours now, so I would rather look at that beautiful lady over there than an ugly looking weird dude." Draco said turning back to face the girl again.

"Dude?" One of the girls in the group asked.

'Oh! I forgot the dream takes place in the past.' Draco thought, remembering the concept of the dream, 'Wait, if that's really the case then why can they understand me or rather why can I understand them?'

"She asked you a question." The tall man spoke again not minding being called ugly.

"Oh! A dude means a man" Draco said snapping out of his stupor.

"Dude means man? Are you not from around here?" The girl with brown hair asked with a bossy tone. Draco's mouth twitched as he felt a weird sense of deja vu again.

"Mistress asked you a question." The short one said harshly, "You insult my friend and you disrespect my mistress, you sure are begging for death."

"Mistress?" Draco asked tilting his head innocently, "Are you a slave?"

"How dare you!" The man said taking out his sword.

"Stop, Abadan!" The brown-haired girl said stepping forward, "He is just a young boy and judging from his clothes he seems to be from a noble family, don't go around picking unnecessary troubles."

'Young boy? Oh, wait.' Draco in all his excitement forgot that he was still an 11-year-old kid.

The man grumbled and slowly put his sword back.

"So young boy what is your name?" The girl asked, "My name is Abilene Midow."

"My name is Draco Black." Draco said doing a noble salute out of habit.

"A surname, so you really are noble." The girl said bowing in greeting too. "But I haven't heard of the Black family before?"

"Oh, I come from a place very far away," Draco said scratching his head.

"I wonder about that, so tell me why are you here?" Abilene asked.

"I really don't know." Draco said, "I just woke up and I was inside this weird cave."

"Hmph! Do you really think someone would come to the Abyssal cave, by mistake?" The short man named Abadan snorted.

"Abyssal Cave?" Draco tried to remember if there was a place like this back in his world but nothing came to his mind.

"Forget it." Abilene sighed turning back. "Take care of him."

"With pleasure." The tall man took out his sword while Abadan grinned looking at Draco as if his fate was already sealed.
