Rise Of House Falken (Harry Potter Fan Fiction) - Chapter 42

I found a long list of problems with his body. It was so long that I could separate the injuries into parts.

His main problems were physical. He was facing severe malnutrition due to his stay here and would need to take nutrition potion for half a year just to correct that and let him grow into his normal height. A few improperly treated bones ranging from small cracks to big breaks. I could tell that all the injuries were treated using accidental magic and not by doctors. To treat them, I would need to vanish each and every improperly mended bone and use Skele-Gro potion to grow them back. He also did not have any immunizations both muggle and magical. There were also many scars on his body his face was clean except the iconic Lightning bolt scar. All of them should be healed soon or else they will affect his future growth and also reduce his life expectancy.

Coming to mental problems. He had a self-induced mental intelligence block due to the abuse. He was so scared of scoring more than Dudley that his magic created the block. It was my first time even hearing about such a block. I don’t think anyone has invented a block like this. He also had many obliviated memories which coincided with instances of accidental magic. So I can tell why he was obliviated. One good thing that came out of the abuse was that by trying to keep his emotions in control, he had become a Natural Occlumens and it would be easy for him to learn Occlumency if thought correctly. I could already see a small shield protecting his mind. This was similar scenario to that of Tom Riddle but he became a Natural Occlumens and Natural Legilimens due to his childhood. I believe he learned to hide his emotions and read the emotions of everyone at a very young age to survive at his orphanage. I believe that is why he became so proficient in mind magic.

Now coming to his magic core. As I ȧssumed his magical core was much larger than that of normal children.

About 10% of his magic was constantly fighting the soul leech in his scar. It was a soul leech and not a Horcrux as to make a Horcrux, a ritual was needed and Voldemort did not perform one that night. I believe his soul was so unstable that a part of his soul split out when hit by the reflected killing curse and leeched onto the nearest magical source available. To remove the leech was simple but it was unwise because I believe that Harry gets Fate’s protection due to the same leech. I would remove it only when the final battle was near.

30% of his core was constantly used to power up the wards. So in total about 40% of his magic was in use all the time. Due to this, his magic was growing at a faster rate than normal. It was not as risk free or beneficial as my method of exercising magic but it made sure that Harry was much stronger than his peers.

There was also a block on the core that was applied on his core that was increased over the years. At present it was blocking 50% of the core. The block must have been increased over the years by Dumbledore on instances of high amounts of accidental magic.

So at present he only had 10% of magic for his use thus reducing the amounts of accidental magic. When Harry is away from the wards he will have 40% of his magic as wards cannot draw magic from him when he is far away in Hogwarts. This was the reason why Dumbledore made him stay at Dursley’s over each summer so that he could power up the declining wards again. This 40% of his magic core was similar to the 100% of magic core of rest of his year mates. So Harry will be as strong as his peers and his strength will increase as his magic grows since his magic will grow at a faster rate.

The blocks must be removed before his magical maturity or else he will lose the portion of magic core blocked during the maturing process of the core. Then he will lose 50% of his magical core potential and he will be only a above average wizard in the future. He will lose the chance to become as strong as Dumbledore or Voldemort.

Coming to other issues. He had a Mail redirecting ward on him. This made sure that Dumbledore knew who all were mailing letters to Harry and what to do with those letters. He could change the destination of the Owls before the Owl even started its journey.

There was another block on him that upon further analysis was revealed to be a block on his partial metamorph talent which he must have inherited from his Black ancestry. He did not gain complete inheritance but even the partial gift was good. It would allow him to change his facial features without the use of glamour charms that could be detected by anybody.

There were also many tracking charms on him. One which tracked his location, another which tracked his life and another that tracked the status of the soul leech.

Next I started going through his memories. His life was what I expected it to be. A very tough life which was far worse than lives at even the worst orphanages. Till the age of five, I could tell that his life was bearable. The only thing lacking was proper amounts of food and lack of love and care. They left him to himself without any toys and called him either freak or boy. He did not know his name until he went to school. His life became tough only after the age of five. They started giving him chores like cooking, washing clothes, cleaning and gardening to earn his living. If he made any mistakes, he was beaten. He had to learn everything on his own.

So after knowing that he would not get any help from ȧduŀts, he gave up. He stopped rebelling and decided to follow the instructions of his relatives until he escaped from this place. He was excited about the magical world as it gave him hope of escaping his relatives abuse.

After going through all his memories, I decided to help him but only a little and that too only discreetly. I did not want to change his character too much in this short time and effect his sorting. He was not sneaky like me to stay under radar so I could not train him. I will heal him make sure that all this abuse does not affect his future growth. I would openly help him only during my 7th year as I would be strong enough to protect myself only then.
