《THE DARK ENIGMA • TOM RIDDLE》LXXXV. Inheritance Test
Advertisement
"Harry?" I ask as he glance towards me, setting down the book he was reading.
We had been sitting in the library as my hands run across Nyx's scales.
"Mhm?"
"Er... well, Nyx had mentioned this earlier so I wanted your opinion on it..." i trail off as he tilts his head in confusion slightly.
"So, there's this thing at the gringotts you can get called an inheritance test, nyx suggested sneaking out to get one with you." I explain as Harry nods slowly in understanding.
"Hm... well it sounds like a good idea to me, when should we sneak out?" He inquires as I glance towards the window which showed the sun just setting.
"Sometime before the sun completely sets." I mutter as Harry nods, looking out the window aswell.
"What about right now?" He questions as I glance towards him before nodding.
"The professors wouldn't notice if we went through the whomping willow to the shrieking shack. From there we can go somewhere close to where the night bus would be." I explain as we both get up, nyx curling loosely around my shoulders as she lays half asleep.
"Well, let's go!"
———
I wave to the conductor of the bus before the bus speeds off.
Me and Harry walk around the corner and to the familiar old looking building. Once we open the door, the familiar scent of old wood and coffee fills my senses.
I glance around as I see the bartender, Tom I think his name was.
I drag Harry over to him as he glances at the two of us.
"We need to get into diagon alley." I state as he pauses, glancing at our scars before nodding briefly.
"Go right ahead." He murmurs before going back to polishing the glass he was holding.
We walk out the back door as I get out my wand before I pause, thinking back to the order hagrid hit the bricks the first time.
After a moment I try the same order I remember and after a second, they open to relabeling diagon alley which was slightly less busy given the fact it was night.
I hold onto Harry's hand in order to not get lost as we walk down the street to gringotts.
I glance up at the while building before walking in with Harry right next to me.
We walk over to the same goblin from before as he glances at us before going back to the paper he had as he mutters a "yes?"
"Er— we'd like to take inheritance tests." Harry explains as the goblin glances down at us (specifically our scars) before nodding.
"Very well, go in that room there, the goblin that takes care of the potter vault will be there." He drawls as he points at a room before going back to the paper.
Me and Harry walk over to the room as we knock, hearing an brief 'come in' before walking in.
"Yes?" The goblin asks, seemingly annoyed.

"We wanted to take inheritance tests." I answers as the goblin nods, taking two pieces of parchment and two short daggers.
"Cut your finger and let the blood drip onto the parchment." The goblin explains as we sit down in the chairs infront of the desk and cut our fingers, letting the crimson liquid slowly drip onto the parchment.
I glance down as words form on the parchment.

Once I finish reading the parchment, my eyes are wide in shock as I glance at Harry who had an equally as shocked look on his face.
"Switch...?" I murmur as he nods, handing me the parchment in his hands as he took the one in mine.

The room becomes silent before I turn towards Harry Harry. "Atleast together we basically own half of hogwarts now?"
I chuckle nervously as Harry facepalms, the goblin raises an eyebrow before looking down at the paper.
His eyes were widen slightly once he finished reading but quickly regained an stone-faced expression.
"If I may, I would suggest claiming your lordships/ladyships and heirships before doing anything else." The goblin explained as I glance at Harry, he pauses in thought before nodding.
"Alright then, how do we claim the lordships/ladyships and heirships?" I ask as the goblin waves his hand and summons two dark wooden box's. One had my initials carved into it and the other had Harry's initials carved into it.
He opens the boxes as a bunch of rings lay in a row, each with a different crest on them.
"The one's on the left are lordship/ladyship, then the ones on the right our heirship. If the magic of that family accepts you, then you gain the protection the lordship/heirship ring provides." The goblin explains as he pushes the boxes towards each of us.
I glance at the rings which layed in my box, two rings were bigger as one had the ravenclaw house symbol.
The other had roses on vines running along the border as the middle was separated into three, two small squares and one long. The long one had the silhouette of a tree standing there as the top small one had the letter 'E' on it and the lower one had a fully grown rose.
There were two smaller rings, one with a black family crest, and the second with the Emrys house crest. The goblin glanced as me as I hold up the ravenclaw ring, looking in awe at the detail.
"To claim your ladyship, just say 'I, Y/n Lily Potter, wish to wear the ring of ravenclaw, accepting the title of lady to the ancient and noble house of ravenclaw and all responsibilities that come with it.'" The goblin explains as I nod, bringing the ring to my finger.
"I, Y/n Lily Potter, wish to wear the ring of ravenclaw, accepting the title of lady to the ancient and noble house of ravenclaw and all responsibilities that come with it." I repeat as the ring slips onto my finger as I feel a sudden rush of magic throughout my body.
"Each lordship, ladyship, or heirship ring has its own protection spells." The goblin briefly explains as I nod.
Once me and Harry put all our rings on, we then moved onto getting the potions/compulsions removed.
———
I yawn as I glance at Harry, who simply glances back before we turn back towards the goblin.
"Thanks for the help today, but if I may ask... where are our parents wills?" I ask as the goblin pauses, seemingly in thought before he gets up and walks out of the room.
Soon after, the goblin enters the room again with another goblin who was holding two rolled up parchments.
"It seems your parents wills have been illegally sealed." The second goblin explains as Harry looks confused.
"Wonder who could have done that." I murmur sarcastically with an eye roll.
"The wills were illegally sealed three days after your parents death, by Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore." The goblin adds on as I glare down at the table, annoyed by the old man's meddling in our lives.
"Is there any way for us to see the wills as soon as possible?" Harry asks as the goblin nods curtly.
"Of course, we currently have the wills—" he pauses to hold up the parchments. "— and can open them immediately so long as we have your permission."
"You have our permission, open it." I say to the goblin as he nods, unrolling one of the parchments as my mothers voice automatically reads the words written onto the page.
"Last will and testament of Lily Jasmine Potter née Evans. I, Lily Jasmine Potter née Evans, being sound of mind and body, declare this to be my last will and testament, hereby revoking all wills previously made by me."
"If my husband, James Fleamont Potter, outlives me then I give him everything I own along as access to the Evans vaults. If my Husband dies along with me, then I give everything to my children, Y/n Lily Potter and Harry James Potter. The items and currency shall go to the vaults and all vaults (excluding the potter trust vault which will be completely managed by Harry and Y/n Potter) will be managed by Sirius Black till they come of age. If Sirius is not available then Remus Lupin will be in charge of the vaults."
"To Sirius Black, I leave 30,000 galleons, I know you don't need the money, but use feel free to use it however you wish (also just ask moony out already, he likes you back, I promise!). To Remus Lupin, I leave 50,000 galleons and access to all the books which reside inside the Ravenclaw and Evans vault. If we died by being betrayed by our location being given away, then peter is the cause of my and my husbands death, therefore, we will leave him nothing but the warning not to mess with our kids lives. But if I died due to natural causes, then I leave 50,000 galleons and his favorite chair. To Alice Longbottom, I leave 50,000 galleons and the best of wishes for your child. To Narcissa Mafloy, I leave 20,000 galleons and all the ancient rune's books which reside inside the Ravenclaw vault. To Severus Snape, I leave my sincerest apologies and forgiveness along with 40,000 galleons. To Minerva Mcgonagall, I leave 20,000 galleons."
"In the case which both my husband and I die, my children will be taken care of the following in order; Sirius Black, Alice Longbottom, Narcissa Malfoy, Severus Snape, or Minerva Mcgonagall. If none of the above are available, then my children will be adopted by a neutral wizarding family. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES will my children be left with my sister, Petunia Dursley née Evans!"

Legends of Balarel - A Leisurely LitRPG
Glenn Redwood has longed to become an Adventurer since he was a young boy, and has focused every waking moment on that goal since turning 14. Answering the challenge of the Gods of Balarel, he has fought Monsters, Leveled, and grown stronger. Yet the day before his 16th birthday, the day he will earn his dream or lose it forever ... the Gods have made a wager. And no mere mortal wishes to draw the attention of the Gods. ***** This is my crack at writing a leisurely LitRPG. My focus is more on telling interesting stories set in a world where people live under a MMORPG-like ruleset enforced by the Gods, and less on writing another story where the MC gets massive stat boosts every chapter before heading off to wreck the world. There will be plenty of blue tables (it’s LitRPG!) but my Adventurers are just starting out. This fic is about the journey, not the destination, so expect everyone to Level ... leisurely. Updates: M-T-W-Th. I’ll post 3000-4000 words a day, or 12000-15000 words a week. If this posting pace ends up being too much for me, I reserve the right to slow posts down a bit. Inspirations: Blessed Time (Royal Road) Is It Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls In a Dungeon? (Anime) Trails in the Sky (JRPG Series) MC: My MC is a genuinely good person who’s both a talented warrior and tactically savvy. He prefers to solve problems without violence but will resort to force if necessary to protect his friends or innocent people. I’m tired of stories starring anti-hero MCs facing endless doom and gloom, so I wanted to write a nice guy with an adventurous spirit who helps people in a thriving fantasy world. That’s all.

Restless Night, Pleasant Dreams
I lived my life as a dream. Waking up to attend parties with those of my elk, sleeping with the bright and pretty, leaving behind many promises and lies. I woke up from all of that nonsense. No... it is better to say that I was— shock awake.. I watched my father die like a dog trying to protect my mother. I watch my mother take her own life after my father died. I clearly remember sitting in the steam carriage, nursing a hangover. Praying for this trip to be over. I clearly remember the amber eyes and twelve foot wing span. I clearly remember the sound of iron doors being ripped open as if it was paper wall. I clearly remember other drivers screaming and the sound of collisions and explosions as people rekt in panic of escaping. I remember the death around me and the fear that gripped me. The soul stirring feeling that sent me fleeing while my parents were suck clean of blood. I remember thinking, berating myself hours later. Gripping my hair, slapping my palms into my forehead, questioning why I didn't carry my tools. Weeks pass since that time.. My guilt is gnawing at me and this pain isn't something I like. I almost feel like the man in the mirror isn't me. The me I used to be. Maybe, if I take revenge. I can put these demons to rest? Maybe, if I put these bastard in a grave. I can be someone new? Maybe, after they all die. This mirror won't haunt me with their faces?
