Chapter 4: DRAGONLORD

The dreaded day finally dawned,

Funny how time flies when you are in tight spots

Draco was still staring at the ceiling. the events of the previous day had left him hopeless.

he had tried pleading to no avail, his father had fallen into such a bad mood that he was shouting alone while they did the rest of the shopping.

Aster had gotten an apple wood wand with unicorn hair at its core.

She had also preferred the Dragon heartstring however, her case wasn't as bad as Draco's.

Mr Malfoy's main worry was that if other Wizarding families got the information, and they were sure to get it seeing  that Ollivander would be spitting the tale to all his friends in the tavern,

it would greatly tarnish the Malfoy name he had tried to build so hard over the years

his mother however wasn't as hyped up like his father,

she insisted that Draco could still join Hogwarts while they contacted another wand maker by the name of Gregovich to fashion a dragon heartstring for Draco.

Mr Malfoys mood hadn't improved throughout the day he had fallen into a tussle with a man named Mr Weasley who was a ministry of Magic official they had wrestled for almost a minute before a real giant of a man by the name Hagrid pulled them apart

it was then that Draco got the First Glimpse of the famed harry potter.

a small boy with glasses and a lightning bolt scar on his forehead. the boy was in the company of the redhead family.

Draco had stared at the group with envy.

All of them were sure they were joining Hogwarts, but he had to fight time with a limited magic reserve and complete impossible quests.

he wasn't sure he would be alive to witness the admission day, his whole day was ruined but even worse his magic reserve was slowly dwindling and he had no hope yet of restocking it.

When they got home Draco had excused himself and tried to get a nap, fatigue had quickly carried him to slumber.

He had been aroused in the evening by The House Elf,  dobby who liked to appear from nowhere and chat with Draco.

dobby had a way of getting to his heart.

since arriving Draco had taken a liking to the creature and they had become friends.

the elf had even gifted him with a knitted sweater.

he said he was sure that the master Draco was not like his father and would live to the full image of the Great ancestor of the Malfoy family.

as Draco found out, they shared one thing in common: their hate for Mr Malfoy.

Draco realized that he was afraid to open the system display,

he knew his vitals were declining, he didn't need to see the system display to know that, he could see that his initially excellent vision was now starting to blur.  He spent most of his time sleeping to conserve his energy until the dreaded fade time arrived.

Draco had debated explaining his predicament to his mother,

maybe then she would understand that time was a luxury he no longer could afford. Every second that passed brought him a Step Closer to his doom.

yet, if she found out that he was just an Imposter in his son's body, Draco feared it would be a quick end for him.

Beneath her beautiful facade, she too had the terrible temperament of the Malfoys.

Even worse, he was afraid that they would think that their son hadn't recovered after all and send him to a Wizarding asylum.

Draco hesitantly reopened the display.

It didn't matter whether he checked it or not his doom had been passed and it was coming. He navigated to the quest tab and reread the words that were now his Death Sentence.

quest;

attain the wand with the Dragon heartstring;

Draco checked the words again and again; he must be missing something. How did the system expect him to acquire such a wand when the wand was the one that chose its owner.?

He stared Emptily at the orange words as if seeing nothing then something clicked.

He sat upright with a start.

He reread the word of the quest again.

Attain the wand with the dragon heartstring.

Draco realized with a shock that the system wasn't asking him to get just a wand with a dragon heartstring core.

The system was specific to a particular wand with a particular dragon's heartstring. the use of "the" instead of"a" Narrowed things down to specific detail.

Draco saw that now that he had comprehended, two more lines in form of poetic prose had appeared glowing even brighter than the quest details. They read;

on the Giver, lies the power.

A reign ends when another begins

Draco read the words several times,

hadn't the system said that his power came from killing Magical Creatures and absorbing their  Magic,?

Why was he now expected to solve a riddle?

He however realized that although he did not understand the new lines they did not seem like something he was expected to do, they were just plain information given in the form of a poem.

Draco's head was aching with the new information. They had made his quest even more impossible, he now had to find a particular wand, not just any other wand.

He checked his magic reserve, it had decreased to 20%. Now that the deadline was only eight hours away the reserve was draining first.

Draco realized that he needed to think hard.

hadn't the system reincarnated him into Draco Malfoy's body? ,

he realized that so far the system had not made a single mistake, the information it gave was clear and precise,

this only served to increase his suspicion that the wand the system wanted him to acquire must be in the custody of the Malfoy family.

he was after all in level 1 quest, hadn't joined Hogwarts,  and didn't know much of the outside world. the only place he was now familiar with was here which he now called home.

Draco was now sweating with expectation,

A plan started to form in his head.

Are house-elves not loyal servants? he thought, were they not regarded to know most of the secrets of the family they were serving?

Draco decided to take the chance.

He minimized the display and sat down at the edge of his bed. He grabbed a book and pretended to be reading. Then he cleared his throat and called  Dobbie. There was a sudden crack and the elf appeared in his room." master Draco called ``how can I help you, sir".

Draco pretended to be reading,

" I am looking for a wand that belonged to my family"

Dobbie on hearing those words almost fell unconscious.

He steadied himself and said

"I do not know what master is talking about, ".

, Draco closed the book,

" don't lie to me because  I know there is a dragon heartstring wand in my family that was entrusted to you by my ancestor".

For a moment dobby seemed to forget his fear

"it's not just any dragon heartstring it is called the Gawain wand, it was fashioned by the great Mr Lenard  Malfoy your ancestor with  the help of Gawain the first dragon",

suddenly Dobbie threw himself on the floor hitting his head on the floor

"bad bad dobby, I shouldn't say master's secret"

"I am your master and I am supposed to have that wand. My ancestor meant it that way."

dobby stood upright

" Forgive me master Draco but I must prove that

the elf suddenly disappeared for a while and returned with an ancient-looking bundle

he presented it to Draco  saying

" if indeed master is the worthy one I have been waiting for letting him open the bundle and take hold of the dragon book".

"But I must warn master if he is not, his death  has finally come and the dobby will mourn him"

        Draco was now anxious

he hastily unrolled the bundle without posing to think,

dobby quickly withdrew to the far corner of the room.

whatever happened to those not worthy, Draco knew that the elf had seen it countless times and it was horrific.

inside the bundle, there was an ancient-looking book that was embossed with an emblem of a dragon head.it was written.

GAWAIN: THE WAY OF DRAGON.

draco hastily took hold of the book and tried to turn its pages, his only thought now was finishing the quest.

the book did not open.

suddenly a brilliant glow burst from the book and its centre opened.

An 8-inch rod emerged from the centre,

Draco was now overwhelmed by his success,

he grabbed the rod. the light immediately intensified, and moved with speed to coil itself on dobby's body,

Draco realized that the elf was being absorbed by the light. he couldn't let go of the Gawain wand, he was transfixed, he realized that the light from the elf and the book were all entering him.

  The last words he had before he passed out were the synthetic voice of the system"

"Congratulations Draco, you are now a level 1 dragonlord.

As his consciousness drifted away, he finally realized the true meaning of the words of the quest,

with the giver lies the power,

a reign ends, when another begins.

dobby had to die for him to become the next dragonlord.
