Wizardry System - Chapter 87

“The sentencing is finished!” The messenger said. “Lucius Malfoy will serve lifetime imprisonment in Azkaban. Narcissa Malfoy will serve 5 years in Azkaban and Draco Malfoy will serve 2 years in Azkaban,”

The messenger signaled Chris to stand up. Chris followed his order and followed the messenger to leave to room.

“Thank you,” Narcissa said surprising Chris.

‘Perhaps if she hadn’t met Lucius, she would have been like Sirius who fought against his family for what was right. It’s truly unfortunate that she met Lucius who strengthened her belief on blood purity,’ Chris thought as he left the room and the door closed behind him leaving behind the Malfoy family.

Chris was brought back to the Atrium where there was Harry, Ron, and Se-yeon there waiting for him.

“Over here Chris!” Harry said as he waved his hand.

“I shall leave you to your friends,” The messenger said as he tipped his hat and left Chris.

Chris walked towards the three who were eager to talk to him.

“Well what did you do?” Ron asked. “Did you give them what they deserve?”

“I gave them what I thought was fair,” Chris said.

“Lifetime in Azkaban?” Se-yeon asked.

Chris shook his head.

“That was only for Lucius. I gave 5 years to Narcissa and 2 years to Draco. In the end, Narcissa was not even a Death Eater and Draco was a student like us who was brainwashed by his father. I think he’ll definitely learn his lesson after he faces his punishment. You guys aren’t mad at me right?” Chris asked a bit worried that the three would get mad at him for not giving him a longer punishment.

“Hey if that’s your decision, I’ll respect it,” Ron said. “Besides if it weren’t for you, I’m sure that the three of them will just get away scot-free by spending some Galleons. Honestly Lucius Malfoy serving a lifetime sentence is more than enough. Draco and his mother getting a sentence as well is just the icing on the cake,”

“Definitely. I really despise Draco Malfoy but I don’t think that he should stay in Azkaban for his entire life. As long as he learns his lesson then I’m happy with that. Of course, if he doesn’t learn his lesson then I’m sure you can handle it again right?” Se-yeon said.

“Of course,” Chris said confidently. “I’ll make sure that the Malfoys won’t get away if they do anything dirty,”

“But with the entire Malfoy family in Azkaban and your father still healthy enough to run the Evergreen Family as soon as he is discharged, I’m not sure if the Malfoys will be able to bribe the judge if they decided to commit another crime after they get released from Azkaban,” Ron said.

“We’ll have to see,” Harry said.

Chris led the three to his father’s apartment which marvelled them.

“I honestly shouldn’t be surprised considering how wealthy your family is but it is still amazing seeing that your father decided to keep the entire floor of an apartment to himself” Harry said.

“Yeah I was quite surprised to hear this as well from Sebastian. You can choose whatever room you want. If you need a place to stay, this place is always welcome. Of course, that goes for any other property my dad owns. I’ll have to acquaint myself with all of them before showing them to you guys though,” Chris said.

After the three chose their own rooms, Chris went to the room that he had used before. He suddenly felt sleepy and laid down on the bed to close his eyes.

‘You have passed the test!’

Hearing those words, Chris woke up to see the familiar black space.

“Congratulations Chris. It seems that you won’t be dying any time soon,” A familiar voice said.

“Well the test was difficult but it seemed that I had enough strength in my heart to not act out in revenge,” Chris said with a smile.

However, his face immediately turned grim.

“Did Hermione and Kristine see?” Chris asked worried that the two would see the traumatic things he saw.

“Fortunately, the diary had decided that they shouldn’t watch the test. If they did, I’m sure that with they would become afraid of you,” Prometheus said.

“Good. I’m the only one who should have to deal with that,” Chris said. He gagged thinking about Hermione and Kristine both of whom he personally used the Cruciatus Curse on and his parents who were almost tortured to death.

“However, I watched you and I have to say that you did well,” Prometheus said. “I’m sure that for my test, I wouldn’t be able to hold myself back from giving Zeus the most excruciating torture that I could ever think of. Forget eagles eating his liver, I would have made sure that rats would enter every single orifice on his body and eat him inside out every single day. When I get tired of that, I would put him in lava and then the extreme cold. Goodness I am smiling just thinking about it,”

“And that is why you would fail,” Chris said.

“Well it is of no matter as I am not the one that has to take these tests. Oh yes and Hufflepuff would like to have a few words,”

Hufflepuff’s hologram then appeared.

“Well done Chris. You’ve certainly met my expectations. It is extremely difficult to hold yourself back when the people you love have been dealt that much physical and emotional pain. I would’ve loved a student like you to be in my house but of course considering that you have passed all four tests, I am sure that all the other founders think the same,”

Hufflepuff’s hologram disappeared and Chris was swallowed by a bright light.
