4 Chapter 4 : Harry Potter
The days that followed were particularly eventful for the family who made the front page of every newspaper in the wizarding world because Merlin's letter was 100% authentic but the value of the treasure was almost 40 million gallons of Gold.
The Weasleys had become rich, enormously rich and many people had owled them with letters but they responded to no one except at Gringotts Bank where they stored their new wealth much to the delight of the Gold hungry goblins. .
Ron had advised his father to only respond to his closest friends, they were there when their family had next to nothing while others looked down on them and his father listened.
The first thing they did was rebuild their house, they liked the Burrow as it was but they could have had better.
A magical construction company was hired by Arthur and they brought in construction Elves and Trolls to build a magnificent stone and wood mansion on the site of the Burrow.
The new home was not extravagant, it was not in their nature but they opted for a mansion that was both pretty and simple with a few floors in height.
When the summer holidays came, Percy came home with Charlie and Bill also returned from his ministry internship.
The three brothers were happy with their family's new situation and congratulated Ron their little brother whom they almost no longer recognized because of his new appearance.
[ The entities]
Death: You couldn't keep that little one's face the way it was?! It's a cheat code like with Jacob.
Reality: What are you talking about?! Jacob has only become bigger and much more mature, that's all. He didn't become a handsome guy overnight.
Death: But Ron does. He meets Merlin who becomes his teacher and drinks a permanent beauty potion?!!
Eternity: Stop, he said it's clearly not his fault. In addition, it is a magical world and from a human point of view, becoming beautiful through magic cannot be unthinkable.
Death : Hmm, we'll see if all that doesn't spoil the main plot.
Reality: Yeah, we'll see.
[Alternative reality]
1 month after the start of the vacation, the parents agreed that everyone would take the potion just like Ron but one after the other to monitor the different cases.
They had inquired and this potion was not on any market in the wizarding world, they were the only ones to have it at their pleasure (who wouldn't be happy with that?! LOL!)
In the end the Weasley family had changed in everything except their basic behavior, the house was still as hectic and sometimes messy but their lives had seen great improvements, Ron was only 7 when he saved the day from his family.
(Time skip)
With astonishing speed, 4 years flew by and during this time, the family lived in happiness and admiration even if sometimes sad events reached them like when three years ago, the wife of Xenophilius Lovegood, Pandora lost her life while experiencing a spell in front of her seven-year-old daughter Luna.
This death made Ron quite sad and the Weasleys immediately showed their support for the Lovegoods.
Ron had gotten closer to Luna over the last three years and he went to see her regularly, even if people found her weird, he didn't.
He loved hanging out with her and listening to what she had to say. It was sometimes very unusual because she said she saw things and Ron gave her the benefit of the doubt because the wizarding world had its mysteries.
He had also seen Cedric again and they got along quite well and Cedric sometimes showed Ron the spells he had learned. Cedric was three years older than him but even he was impressed by Ron's maturity and intelligence.
Merlin had not only taught his disciple magic and other sorcerer disciplines, he also transmitted noble values to him and told him about his experiences. Ron really liked these stories.
Now, Ron was almost 11 years old and was going to start his apprenticeship at Hogwarts, the famous school of magic where his parents and brothers had done their apprenticeship.
Normally, he received an owl the year before because the school noticed his talent but he postponed it until this year telling his parents that he first wanted to learn all the basics of magic with them before going there and they accepted with emotion because the child wanted them to be his first teachers.
Actually, it was bullshit. He knew that this school was going to give him a tiring schedule and he still needed to stay because where he could learn with Merlin at night, during the day he could sleep and learn with Ginny the basics of magic and some spells. simple with his parents.
In the end, after 4 years of apprenticeship with Merlin, Ronald Weasley, only 10 years old, was an incredibly powerful, talented and competent mage thanks to his monstrous universal talent.
He had learned potion making to an advanced level, he was a competent master of Legilimency and Occlumency, he knew a large number of spells which he had mastered perfectly, thanks to his excellent understanding of magic he could perform spells without wands or incantations but the area in which he excelled was undoubtedly in enchanting objects.
He still had a lot to learn but to say he shocked Merlin was an understatement, it was a real trauma for the legendary wizard who recognized how frightening, dominant and all-consuming Ron's genius was.
His heir was undoubtedly a unique mage among even the most exceptional wizards who had ever lived and he thanked magic that such a talent was so unambitious because if it went wrong then the world of magic in a few years might well shaking like never before.
Ron, Ginny, Percy, Fred and George were with their parents at the station to join the train leading to Hogwarts by track 9 and 3/4 it was a magical platform from which the train would wait and it was hidden in a dimension accessible by a stone pillar that only mages could cross.
« Every year it's the same thing and the station is overflowing with muggles, platform 9 and ¾ is that way. Let's hurry! » Molly said happily as she eagerly walked with her children behind her, each with their luggage cart.
Many eyes were on them as they all exuded natural, unadorned beauty, the permanent beautification potion had only perfected their basic features without adding anything too much, they weren't the prettiest of the world but they were far above average.
Xenophilius and his daughter were also there with them and Luna was walking next to Ron with whom they were talking about their expectations, she had received his message this year early instead of the following year.
Percy, Fred and George crossed first and as Luna was about to do so, someone called out to them.
« Excuse me, can you tell me where platform 9 and ¾ is?" »
It was a small, harmless-looking Brown Haired Boy with round glasses, it was Harry Potter, the main protagonist of the story in which Ron was supposed to evolve but when Harry looked into his eyes, his green eyes Ron's sparkles were so special that Harry lowered his eyes.
Molly moved closer affectionately to reassure him and Ron beat her to it.
Ron: It's okay mom, I'll go with him. (look at him) I'm new too. My brothers told me how to do it so you will just have to follow us. All you have to do is run towards the wall and you will cross using magic.
Luna: It's a bit like suicide except you won't die.
Ron: You can close your eyes, your cart will be in front of you so you won't risk hitting yourself. Trust me but come first, if you have any doubts about how it works for you, we will stay with you to find a solution.
Harry nodded and rushed towards the wall closing his eyes, he quickly walked through and when he opened his eyes Ron and Luna were already at his side.
Ron: See? It went pretty well.
Luna: And you're still alive.
Ron: Yes Luna, us too. (Looks at Harry) This is platform 9 and ¾, this is also our train, the Hogwarts express. We better find a place before he leaves. Would you like to come with us?
« Yes with pleasure. » Harry replied smiling.
They found a place and the train started.
They were sitting in a 4 seater booth, Ron and Luna were sitting together and Harry was right in front of them.
Ron was reading a book and Luna was reading the newspaper published by her father which she was holding upside down.
For a moment there was silence in the cabin when Ron noticed that Harry looked embarrassed, they were strangers and Molly asked him to make friends, his father himself told him that it was very important and Merlin taught him that no one could do everything themselves, he had defeated dangerous enemies sometimes thanks to companions whose even the smallest help could make the difference in a mission.
"By the way, my name is Ron, Ronald Weasley" Ron said with a smile as he waved back and Harry did the same.
Harry: I am Harry, Harry Potter.
Immediately Luna and Ron looked at him a little pointedly but Ron didn't linger.
Harry: You're the first one who doesn't look really impressed upon hearing my name, that's good to see because I don't know what I did to elicit that reaction.
Ron: My father told me about you, it seems that you survived a supposedly fatal spell cast by Voldemort himself. It's cool but to me you just seem like a completely normal person.
« Ron, we're not supposed to say you know who's name. » Luna said almost whispering.
"I don't care, the only reason not to say that name is because it's corny. Only an idiot would take a name like that, right Harry?" he asked Harry, smiling.
Harry: I think the same thing too.
"Voldemort" they said the name at the same time before laughing like drunk children.
Ron: It seems you have a scar.
"Yeah, there it is" He showed her the scar on his forehead, smiling.
Luna: The scar, it's really there…!
Ron: I think she's cool, that gives her something! A tough face, a rebellious face, a face that should not be called Voldemort.
They started laughing again and even Luna hid her laughter under her newspaper.
"Anyone want to buy anything?" a woman asked in the hallway with a cart of treats and Ron looked at his new friend and smiled.
Harry: We'll take everything.
Ron: I pay.
The next moment, they were enjoying their treats with Luna.
Luna: Ron, you shouldn't spend so much money.
Ron: I have too much money not to spend it from time to time, plus you need to eat, you've been losing weight lately.
She averted her blushing gaze a little as she realized that Ron was paying a lot of attention to her.
Harry: Have you known each other for a long time?
Ron: She's my childhood friend, our families don't live very far away. (looks better at Harry) I didn't notice your glasses were broken. Wait, don't move.
He snapped his fingers and the frame of Harry's glasses was fixed.
Harry: Wow! How did you do that ?
Luna: Ron!! You can use magic without a wand!?
"It's our secret, I have some talents. You have to keep this to yourself, no one will believe you" he finished looking at Luna who just nodded and Harry thanked her by doing the same.
"Meow" they heard a meow and Ron's beautiful black cat was already there.
"Lucius" Luna took the cat in her arms.
Ron: This is my cat, he is very intelligent and disappears at times. I'm sure he'll like you.
A girl came from the hallway and froze slightly when she looked into Ron's eyes, it was Hermione.
Hermione: Have you seen a toad? A boy named Neville lost his.
Harry: No.
Ron: No.
« It's possible that Lucius devoured it, he just arrived. » Luna said showing Hermione the cat. Ron laughed at that while Hermione panicked slightly for the poor frog.
Harry: I'm sure he'll find his toad.
Hermione: (looks at Harry) Damn it!! YOU ARE HARRY POTTER!
"Here we go" Ron said tiredly as he rested his head on Luna's shoulder nonchalantly forcing a sleep.
Hermione: I'm Hermione Granger.
(looks towards Ron) And you?!
Ron: Ronald Weasley and this is my awesome friend Luna Lovegood. She makes very good Hallucinogenic cookies.
Luna: Nice to meet you.
"You better put on your robes, we'll be there soon." Hermione said before getting up and leaving.
Harry and Luna put on their robes and Ron stood there lazily.
Luna: You're not wearing your dresses.
"Later, I'm not quite in a hurry" He yawned before putting a book to his face and starting a nap.
