Harry Potter, Sovereign - Chapter 21
Harry left the room, his mind going through everything he has discovered recently. He absent-mindedly went to the kitchen and started to prepare diner.
While he was busy, the casters told the other girls the basics of what was discovered during the examination. Then they started to talk about what they were going to do to train him. They talked in low voices, aware of Harry’s distracted mind and wanting to leave him in peace for a while. Vi also didn’t want him more distracted than he already was while cooking, fearing for a big drop in quality. The others girls agreed.
Diner passed in a calm manner, with little talk, but no akwardness. After the meal, the ladies presented to him the schedule he was to follow for the days preceding the inquiry.
He would spend the first 2 hours of the morning practicing with his new focus. He had to be able to cast all the spells he learned since first year without discomfort, and then get even better at it than he was with his old wand. The following 2 hours would be spent with Scathach, learning the basics of her world kind of magic.
His afternoon would be spent with Xuanzang. He would learn meditation with her as well as breathing. Breathing would not only help with learning their kind of magic, but also with meditation. The evenings would be spent learning more about magical Britain. The nobles houses, etiquette, common laws and regulations, and the most influencal members of the Ministry. Caitlyn and Camille would help him with that.
“Looks like I’ll be busy” Harry muttered with a wry grin.
“We will all be” Semimaris lightly admonished him, having heard him. “When not assisting you with your studies and training, we will be doing a lot of research.”
Harry nodded with some pink on his cheek.
The following days were spent following the schedule. But there were some things he forgot to take into consideration, which made these days much harder than he expected.
Harry was used to work hard, and sometimes too much. It was one of the reasons why he was lazy with school work, he didn’t to inflict on himself more workload than needed, not wanting to feel like he was with the Dursley. Yet these days of training and studying had become harder to bear than if he was with the Dursley.
The 1st reason being the women’s beauty.
As he got used to his new rod and new level of magic, he also had to work on DADA spells. Semimaris and Vi though that it would be a good idea to do it through spars. So every mornings, after 1h and half of general spell casting, he would spend the last 30 minutes in mock battles. Usually with Semimaris and Vi as opponents. And they weren’t in casual clothes, but leggings and sport bras for Vi and tennis dress for Semimaris.
It was very distracting, and he always paid for it dearly. That was the 2nd reason he suffered, they didn’t go easy on him.
The school robes always hid too much, even the quidditch outfit. He still wasn’t used to see so much beauty. Vi wore g-strings with her leggings so the back view was always arousing. Semimaris didn’t use any bras, she hardly had to move when fighting him, but it was enough to make her b.r.e.a.s.ts shake in hypnotic ways. Gusts of winds would reveal the lacy u.n.d.e.r.w.e.a.r she wore under the dress.
Xuanzang always wore light and slightly revealing clothing such as crop tops with no bra, bikini tops, boyshorts and dolphin shorts. Thankfully, most of the time he spent with her, he had his eyes closed for better concentration, or she stayed behind him. They jogged to the waterfall, he would meditate there, and they would jog back to the estate. He was both angry and gratefull that she didn’t run ahead of him. Just thinking about it was enough to make him groan.
Time with Scathach, Caitlyn and Camille was relatively more tame. He spent his time with them at a table to study. There were no big motions to make their c.h.e.s.t jiggle, and their butts were always out of sight. And in Camille case, it was impossible for him to get excited over an artificial body. It only had the same appeal as a painting or sculpture. They were strict in their teaching, and Harry was a bit happy that he didn’t get distracted during their lessons.
Like that, Harry spent nearly 10h everyday training and studying. He also had to work on his occlumency for an hour before sleeping every nights.
It would have been worse for him if he had to prepare every meals as well. Thankfully, Xuanzang and Vi could make decent meals, and Semimaris was surprisngly good as well. Nobody expected the former queen to be able to use a kitchen. What the others made was just good enough to be edible. He only had to cook diner.
The ladies had also been busy. They had a crash course on wizarding magic and defense against the dark arts, just in case something happened on the day of the inqury. They had to acquire up to date informations about the state of magical Britain, something which wasn’t avilable in the books. That meant leaving the estate and mingling with the magical population. Semimaris and Scathach used long distance magical means, while Camille ghosted around with Harry’s invisibility cloak.
One of the 1st thing they did though, was going to Gringot and get themselves IDs. Since 3 of them would escort him to the ministry, it would be best if there were traces of their existence for people to find. The goblin could take care of building the proper trails and background. It wasn’t rare for people to use aliases or get themselves new identities through them. The only one who didn’t was Camille. Her existence would remain secret for as long as possible, a hidden ace.
Caitlyn kept her real name. Vi got the name Vicky Isley, which could easily explain people calling her Vi. Scathach became Ciara Canain, Xuanzang became Xuan Zhenya, and Semimaris became Maris Ria. The 3 servants were still wary of someone discovering their true names.
On the eve of the inquiry, Harry felt like the previous 6 days passed in a flash. He was nervous, but also confident that everything would be fine. It was different from being in the care of Dumbledore or the Weasley. They didn’t just handle him. They didn’t restrain him. They supported him and pushed him to be better without appearing bossy like Hermione and Mrs Weasley. Not for the 1st time since meeting them, he felt gratefull to have them with him.
