Harry Potter But AU??? - Chapter 135

Harry’s POV

The rest of the summer passed quickly.

Harry divided his time between practicing music and making cards and upgrading the duel disks with his friends and studying the books GAI compiled.

As the subject Harry knew he had to go to the third stage first in, Harry focused on books about the body, where he found the explanation why while the west has many ways to change the body the east only uses meridians creation in one of the books.

‘The reason why when we pass to the third stage in our body, we create meridians is that the meridians are letting magic flow freely in our body, making it connect to the spiritual realm.

With our minds and magic is focused on the physical realm and our personal Dao, if our body isn’t connected to the spiritual realm we will become unable to use magic at all, becoming squibs.

It made Harry feel grateful he studied this before turning into a shapeshifter, it is obvious that while the easterners’ body comes closer to the spiritual realm, the westerns’ body come closer to the physical realm, and of he changes his body only to become a squib and die, he won’t know where to bury himself.

The good news is that at least in the body department he has a simple solution- shapeshifter while including the meridians, and it only means he has to become knowledgeable about not only western medical studies, but eastern too.

He also had Remus bring SCAMER into the different libraries at London and in universities to copy their books.

At the end of the summer he couldn’t wait for the year to start once more, If only for the time turner to return to him.

Eduard’s POV

Eduard has done many things he regretted doing throughout his life and afterlife.

He his biggest regret was killing Helena of course, but smaller regrets included becoming a ghost as it is incredibly boring, dying with blood on his hands, as it stayed on him forever, and, of course, making everyone call him the bloody baron.

He wasn’t proud of it, but one of the few students he talked with, a muggleborn just like him (what you thought a baron was just a nickname? His father was a baron and he inherit it) who graduated four years ago explained to him that what he went through when he thought the name is cool was called ‘Chūnibyō phase.’

Yes, Eduard has many regrets, yet he couldn’t help but feel another one is about to come.

He is supposed to be the ghost everyone feared, even after he moved past his ‘Chūnibyō phase’ he didn’t want to become like Sir Nicholas and have children call him insulting nicknames like Nearly Headless Nick, but how is he supposed to be as fearsome as he is right now after singing a song?

But while he has no problem to say no to the sorting hat, repeatedly, he just can’t say no to Helena.

So here he is, in the middle of the grand hall, standing behind the hat as the song begun.

[sorting hat:]

What’s a hat to do when it’s put on your head?

It means it’s time to do the job for which I was made

But wait, it just occurred to me

Some of you don’t know what it means sorting

Well, songs can help this sitchywation untangle

Students, professors, listen to me

It’s time for me to sort the kids.

Yay, time for houses facts!

[The Fat Friar:]

A Hufflepuff is a loyal friend

Who will always have your back

Who will listen in class, and work hard

To find success in everything he tries his hand

[sorting hat:]

Ah ha, it sounds great and all but as you already heard

Facts of three more houses are need to be made!

The house of Gryffindor

Isn’t hard to get

[Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington:]

Gryffindor are warriors,

Always charging up ahead

[sorting hat:]

Yes, the house of Gryffindor

Is as simple as can be

Just being brave and have some nerve

The house will be home for all those kids!

[The Bloody Baron:]

Actually each house could be home for you all…

This kid is Slytherin

[sorting hat:]

That’s for sure

So he has cunning and is really mature

[Helena Ravenclaw:]

Here’s Ravenclaw student

[sorting hat:]

Are you confident?

If not all the studies will make his head hurt

[sorting hat:]

Neither ghost is choosing

I’m the only one

‘Cause the center of the sorting

Is lil’ old

Handsome little hat

Me!

The shame! Just like the blood on him it will never wash away! He could already see the first year students not fearing him like their counterparts the years before.

This was the first and the last time he would ever sing, even for Helena!

Luna’s POV

As the sorting begun Luna whispered to the boy who sat next to her. “Harry, how about next year we play next to the hat, make the song even better!”

“Luna,” the sound of his voice next to her east made her shiver. “You are a genius!”
