62 Chapter 62 : Learn To Dance ?
Orion after getting out of Dumbledore's office immediately sprinted towards his dorm, he had to tell Marcus who is currently in charge of handling all the book publications and even selling with a 50% cut, damn that businessman, that Hogwarts has orders 600 copies of 'A Chaotic Core'.
So he took out a pen and paper, and yes pen as he refused to use those quills anymore, they suck. And started writing a letter to Marcus the Owner of Flourish and Blotts.
Professors don't let them use pens in classes, tradition and all that shit but still, this quill problem was also in his mind, if he can solve it then there will be another income source for him. For a modern person the traditional wizarding world or dare I say ancient world is a nightmare, but it's pure gold for a businessman.
After all, business is about giving solutions to the problems people have in exchange for money, and believe it magic or not, this place has tons of problems.
Now Orion is the first one to think about it, heck no there are countless numbers of Muggle Wizards who try to do the same but there are 3 things which stop them.
Firstly making modern things work with magic is hard and not everyone can do it and let be honest here the wizarding crowd will not even look at an object if it doesn't have at least a spell working on it, no matter how pointless it is like magic books which automatically turn the pages as we completed a page.
Secondly, many good ideas never even reach the public as those damn pure blood use their power to rune anything related to Non-Pure Blood. The entire political structure is designed to exploit muggle wizards and favour Pure Bloods.
Lastly, the market itself, wizarding folks don't like muggle stuff much, no matter how convenient they are, and a large part of it has to do with their upbringing and influence from what their government says.
I mean Muggles planning to steal their magic, Really !!
No kidding, they used this kind of sentence to rally up the wizarding crowd back then and even to this date, the mindset is there.
Orion just sighed after thinking about all the walls he needed to break down in his path of entrepreneurship.
After completing the letter he had to bribe RED to deliver the letter in the middle of the night.
The grumbling bird finally decided to do the beating of his money-obsessed friends under the temptation of Orion's homemade sweets, and yes I said it again RED like sweets.

Early next morning Orion woke up at his usual time of 4 am and went for his daily exercise and magic training.
"Great, Finally back to some intense workout. Let's start with something light," Orion said after filling his lungs with fresh morning air.
[What ya gonna do] Merlin asked not interested in the physical exercise, in fact in this regard Merlin was very similar to any traditional wizard, he never saw the reason to exercise when simple rituals can make a wizard's body stronger, not like they ever gonna use those fantastic muscles they build in their life beside the bed.
Well maybe somewhere, a lazy wizards created a spell to move his hip with magic too but Orion wasn't having that.
"100 Push, 100 sit, 100 Squats and 5 Kilometer run, wanted to run more but don't have that much time and honestly I can't risk going bald," Orion replied and started his training, Merlin on the other was not surprised, he had access to Orion's memories and knew that Orion was used to this.
It was only last year when he was laser-focused on increasing his magic that he stopped working out otherwise he built pretty good muscles in that little body of his when he was in the forest practising Integration even without any magic core.
It took 45 minutes for Orion to complete his physical training and then after 5 minutes of rest, he was ready to start with the magical training.
Finally, he ended up spending 20 minutes on Integration as a daily meditation ritual, it's still hard as hell but after this much time, it makes him focus. Not to mention it increases his magical reserve ever so slightly each day so it's a win-win situation for him.
"Alright finally done, now tell me what I am training in today," Orion asked Merlin with a bright smile on his face, this kind of smile was often seen on a man's face who knows how it feels after a good workout. "Grind Yourself Until You Shine," was his policy and after all Bruce Lee one said "The successful warrior is the average man, with laser-like focus,".
Usually, by this time, the Hogwarts staff starts to wake up and do their morning rituals. But there are some people who wake up early and one person among them is Dumbledore. He today came out just to see what Orion was doing, he was so interested in that child's pure magic that he couldn't sleep well, just thinking about that magical radiance which Orion gave off.
Knowing that Orion wakes up early and exercises, he comes out to see what he is doing, in the hope of finding a clue of what he is missing, but he just finds him doing normal muggle exercise.
Orion usually doesn't wear a shirt while working out, going full Bruce Lee but he might have reconsidered it if only he knew that Dumbledore was stalking him, actually, anyone else would have been fine but Dumbledore's preferences were well ....
[Force, I saw you unconsciously use force perfectly back in the King Cross Station yesterday when you helped out that Rose. I have started to see a pattern of why you are having a blockage in your training.]
'Yeah that was crazy I also only realized what I did when you pointed it out. So what did you figure out,' Orion asked curiously.
To others though, he was only standing in one place with his eyes closed, looking like a stone statue.
Correction, stone statue of a Greek god. Damn those muscles, our boy is Chad.
Both Dumbledore and Snape narrowed their eyes to understand what he was doing. Snape joined in later as he too read the book and was interested in Orion (for purely academic purposes) and earlier he also saw Orion soloing Quirrellmort with a single punch.
"No wonder the boy was able to knock out Quirrell," Snape saw Orion's Greek God persona and cursed inside his head, he didn't care about muscles but Envy is a sin hard to avoid.
[My Hero Academia, remember that anime] Merlin asked.
'Of course, you even know the name because of my memories and now I have a pretty organized mind palace so yeah, I remember pretty much everything,' Orion responds as if he was offended.
[Good then remember what kind of problem Deku had when controlling his powers at the start, you are facing something similar]
'You mean when he was not able to control his powers because he was considering his power as an on-and-off switch, that' Orion asked in confusion.
[Yes, the thing is you have to consciously think about using force and that is stopping you, this has to be done unconsciously, like walking and breathing. When you want to walk, your body unconsciously establishes balance with synergy with your legs and even your eyes adapt to that to give you a stable vision.]
'Hmm okay, so what do I really have to do,' Orion asked again in confusion.
[Simple, you have to learn how to Dance]
"DANCE ???"
