The Prince of Denial

Chapter 49 (Year 3 Summer)

Indeed it doesn't. Indeed it doesn't. Also to note, our boy Raven is getting a harem, if it ain't been obvious, soon the harem plan shall begin properly.

Mwahahahaha

Raven pondered to himself the future. It was a tricky thing and uncertain, but all so certain at the same time.

Uncertain in he doesn't know it, but certain in it that he knows it happens as the future came to the past to ensure the future happens.

Paradoxes anyone?

He was too sober to process this, and he doesn't drink at all, a waste of his mind to let it be degraded, even if temporarily by recklessness.

Shrugging this off, he decided to focus onto something else. Something that didn't require him to deal with annoying thoughts that give him migraines.

Like plan on how he wants to pursue his further education. He was set to take his NEWTS for Transfiguration, Charms, Defense, Potions, Runes, History, Arithmancy, Muggle Studies, Divination and Magical Creatures.

Aka he was taking all of the available ones. In the same day as well. Time Tuners were involved to his annoyance, he did not want to feel nauseous again.

"My boy it's time. Are you ready?" Albus asked as he strode up to Raven who was currently randomly in muggle London relaxing. The slightly invisible Fawkes to muggles chirping in greeting. Raven raised his hand as Fawkes landed on it as he stood up.

"Such a handsome boy." Raven said and Fawkes preened as he sang a small song for both his favorite males.

Soon enough both were gone in a flash of red phoenix flames leaving a silver haired child to stare at them curious and shocked.

•~~~~•~~~~•~~~~•

Needless to say, but the NEWTS were easy as pie.

For transfiguration he just recreated some stuff from his fight with Albus, really easily honestly. He noticed it was a lot easier to do so now. His magic flew through his body much easier, even more so then when he was capable of his full power.

Charms was pitifully easy. All he had to do was do some basic things and he passed. What a shocker. Note the sarcasm.

So it went on and on. Each one being easy. Honestly, like for defense they asked him to cast a high tier spell of his choice, he wanted to cast "Sol Flammas", but even he realized that would be counted as "dark", so he just casted a Patronus charm.

Apparently that was a NEWT level worthy spell. Who knew?

For care of magical creatures he just tamed a Nundu because why not? A simple instant punch to the nose and covering of its mouth with a simple wave of the wand, and a new large cat was all cuddly. Fou hissed at it and the poor Nundu curled into a ball scared.

Also apparently having a true familiar that's an animal gets you more points, who knew? Certainly not him.

Let's not even talk about what a breeze runes was for him. A showing of his custom made card game, which he also showed for charms and transfiguration as extra credit, which he should publish sometime soon.

He'll keep the good cards for now of course. Then release them slowly. Got to build the clientele base before releasing everything.

Food for thought.

Needless to say he walked out of there with perfect scores and results graded after he finished his test, because you know, Albus Dumbledore put a word in for him. Not to mention his last name definitely helped.
