Damian showed the yarn and said," do you know, a unicorn hair itself will at least fetch you one galleon per one hair. Per hair not the complete thread you made from it. Imagine how much money you can get ", Hagrid sighed," oh that, i tried doing that, Ollivander buys them occasionally but selling them is a big no. Because it's illegal and I don't know anyone who will buy them ".
" So that's how it is ", Damian nodded. Ron exclaimed," blimey Hagrid, so you didn't sell them because you don't know anyone who can buy them ", Damian said," or maybe there is another reason ", Hagrid said," yes, some of these are tokens left to me by those fascinating and amazing creatures. Despite me being half giant I met some unicorns few times. They're beautiful and kind creatures, how can I sell tokens from my friends? ".
Damian face twitched, sure they are beautiful, but kind, if they sensed any hostility they launch an attack and will proceed to kill you, not to mention if one isn't good guy, they will never let him get near those. They will impale any wizard and witch that annoyed them with their horn.
Hagrid spoke," I can never sell the tokens from my friends ", Damian just stayed silent, Hagrid said," here, have some tea. I also baked some cookies for you all ", Damian looked at the tea that is not okay at all and the rock hard biscuits. He smiled and said," thanks Hagrid but I just had some snacks on the way. I'm full ".
Ron looked at him with a gaze that is saying,' liar ', but Damian didn't even look at him, Harry and Ron drank some tea with some difficulty while Hermione bit on a cookie and placed it back as it's rock solid. She shot Damian a look,' couldn't you have warned me? '.
Then the discussion started. Harry and Ron told Hagrid how Snape tried to kill Harry by hexing th broom, while Hagrid said," Nonsense, Professor snape will never do that. He is a Hogwarts professor Harry. Moreover, he is trusted by Dumbledore ".
Ron said," but we saw it clearly. Snape is muttering continuously something while maintaining eye contact with Harry's broom ", Hagrid said," then you must have been mistaken ", Hermione said," Hagrid I read about curses, I knew one when I saw one. And clearly Snape is using one ".
Hagrid said with some irritation," but why would snape target Harry? What's in it for him? ", Harry spoke," I saw him limping during halloween. He is bitten by the giant three headed dog in the third floor corridor ", Hagrid exclaimed," how do you know about Fluffy? ".
" Fluffy ", Harry, Ron and Damian looked at Hagrid astonished. Hermione asked," that thing has a name ", Hagrid said," oh yeah he did. It's me who named him, i let Dumbledore borrow fluffy to guard- ", Harry asked as Hagrid stopped talking," guard what? ".
Hagrid said with some frustrated tone," forget, you four, just need to know, Snape will never try to harm a student ", Harry said," but he is trying to rob whatever that three headed dog is guarding ", Hagrid yelled," nonsense, Professor Snape is one of the guardians of the treasure. Whatever that is, it is between Processore Dumbledore and Nicholas Flamel".
Hagrid exclaimed," i shouldn't have said that ", Harry exclaimed," aha, so whatever the dog is guarding it's between headmaster and Nicholas Flamel ", Hagrid said," listen all four of you, forget what I said. Whatever it is, it is safe and professor Snape is not a bad guy. Now you can leave, there will be curfew soon ".
Damian narrowed his eyes,' Nicholas Flamel? The famous french Alchemist and the last one to make a philosopher's stone. Which is one of the things I need for the ritual. Could that thing the three headed dog is guarding be the legendary philosopher's stone? If so, i need to get it '.
Damian decided to go and snatch the philosopher's stone. After the ritual, he will return the stone to it's place. But for now, he needs to think about himself here. The obscurus became more dangerous, it gained a will and started feeding on his emotions. If left like this, he couldn't imagine what will happen.
Hermione is saying something and called Damian," Damian, hey Damian ", Damian turned to her and asked," what? ", Hermione asked," why are you in a daze? ", Damian said," I just felt the name Nicholas Flamel is very familiar like I read somewhere but I don't know where exactly and can't remember who Nicholas Flamel is either ".
Ron said," welcome to the club mate. I never remember anything I read too ", Hermione stomped on his leg and said," be serious, this is very important, Damian try to remember where you read about Nicholas Flamel. Then we'll have the clue about what Snape is trying to rob and why is he doing all this? ".
Damian nodded. For now he will keep this one a secret. He needs to learn how to bypass all traps, since the professors are guarding the stone, he needs to find what they're using to defend the stone. Things like this will have multiple security layers. He needs to snatch the stone before the security there tightens.
' information, timing, and theft. I need to get these three things in order if I want to get the stone. Fooling the professors of Hogwarts isn't an easy task, they're more powerful than me. I need to tread carefully with every step from now on ', Damian thought.
Damian returned to his dorm. He took a book out from his inventory and started writing something. This is his plan book, and also the book that records if he had all the items for the ritual. Almost 95% items are all crossed off, representing they're all gathered. Only few things are left :
Unicorn blood
Elixir of Life
Philosopher's stone (optional)
Murtlap Essence
Pixie wings
He saw Pixie wings in Hagrid's hut, murtlap Essence can be somehow snatched from professor snape. But the other three are a little too difficult for now. Unicorn blood contains a curse more over one who killed a unicorn will sometimes get's a curse on themselves.
