I'll pass on this. It's just... too messy. 5 years of training that came out as nothing, now vampire that goes after a dog but leaves the humans, just to create this scene, then a vampire can cast magic (which I dont know if is canon or not) but more, if he can cast magic, why is he in the woods going after a dog and attacking physically. It's just all over the place.
Not a huge fan of the way this is going so far. The MC having a dog was cool, but it lasted like one chapter and that’s it. My interest in Red only went as far as “he is a dog”. Not that there’s much you can do with a regular dog, but this is a world of magic. I have little doubt that with magic there could’ve been something more done with Red. Plus Red’s death meant a lot to Orion apparently but it doesn’t to me as the reader. I feel like the dog wasn’t a character, just a plot tool for the MC and that’s it. We haven’t even been told how Orion and Red met in the first place. I can get using flashbacks to explain it, but it seems a little lazy to skip his 5 year journey then just use flashbacks to explain something away when it becomes relevant. I’ve done something similar when I’ve written my own ff.
Well I will just say that your concept, understanding, knowledge and opinion about the magic of Harry Potter are completely incorrect and incongruous... you use other universes that literally in energy(magic) have nothing to do with Harry Potter as a guide it only makes it bad for the majority who read these fanfics since they come from the concept adapted from Harry Potter ...not for a world in which all logic of the world in question is changed
