Chapter 588: Hogwarts
Rose Evans was not accustomed to unexpected things happening in her life.
Almost every single detail of her second life had been planned out from literal infancy and childhood, right down to her immediately using her cheats to help keep both the Evans and Potter families alive.
From there she slowly mastered her powers, particularly her druid powers, Lambda system, and death attribute magic, especially using death attribute magic to develop the ability to destroy and consume souls.
Even before she entered Hogwarts, Rose had begun working on finding and destroying as many of Voldemort's horcruxes as possible. It was something only she could do as she used her druid bindings to unbind the magic holding the horcrux together, before using her newly developed Soul Eater skill to consume the soul fragments, and gain both the knowledge and power of Voldemort himself.
She had also worked to ensure the freedom of Sirius Black, which included revealing the continued survival of Peter Pettigrew at the same time.
And when she finally got to Hogwarts, that was when Rose really began to put her plans into action.
The first step, and the true key to her success, was Severus Snape.
On Halloween night, the anniversary of Lily's death, Rose came to Snape as a first year to mourn her together. And surprisingly, Snape was mourning Lily with a bottle of fire whiskey, probably because her death was still fairly recent to them both.
A few choice ingredients from Rose, a binding here and there, and a whisper of sweet words along with a slight touch, and the next thing Snape knew he was waking up the next morning beside a naked and 'used' first year Rose.
Obviously he had not taken the situation well, and even contemplated suicide for laying his hands on a first year. But Rose talked him out of it, whispering sweet words of trust into his ear.
It helped that she looked just like Lily, which helped to calm him down before he swore that it would not happen again. Until only a little over a week later when he kept her after class one day, and proceeded to bend her over his desk.
By winter break they were lovers in all but name, and by summer break the mixture of indulgence, guilt and self loathing Snape felt was enough for him to be completely wrapped around Rose's finger. And the first step to her plans was complete.
With Snape completely and utterly loyal to her, she began making her moves to acquire the rest of the Horcruxes, as well as to expand her own brand of influence using Legilimency, potions, and even Confundus charms.
Everything went well until she tried opening the Chamber of Secrets and experienced her first real obstacle, the basilisk.
Rose believed it would listen to her due to her already having consumed several fragments of Voldemort's soul, which was also how she managed to learn Parseltongue. Unfortunately, that had not been the case.
The very moment she opened the Chamber of Secrets, the basilisk began to rampage in an effort to finish its master's great dream, purging Hogwarts of the potentially traitorous mudbloods.
Three muggle-born students died before she had managed to kill it, making the day equal parts tragedy and victory. Thankfully the casualties had been no one IMPORTANT, and no one realized that she had been the one to open the Chamber of Secrets.
That event had been the catalyst that stated her fame, earning the title Serpent-Slayer. And from there things went well as Rose became renowned for her overwhelming power and ability to break curses, which she also did on the Defense Against the Dark Arts position in Hogwarts, as indicated when she became the full-time professor there almost immediately after graduating.
For a while everything was going excellent, especially with her fame sky-rocketing during Harry's first year at Hogwarts when she battled and killed Voldemort, who had possessed Quirrel when they tried to steal the Philosopher's Stone. But then Dumbledore began to grow suspicious of her.
Though Rose had expanded her harem quite a bit already, her appetite had been growing insatiable. It also didn't help that, so long as she was making contact with the earth via her druid tattoos, she could draw functionally limitless energy even during sex.
Despite already having Snape, Sirius, Remus, Harry, and every other notable boy at her beck and call, Rose wanted more.
Soon she began offering her students 'special' private lessons, in which she taught her male students in particular about their bodies and the changes they were going through.
She had seduced almost half the boys in Hogwarts by the time Dumbledore began to grow suspicious, mainly because her druid abilities allowed her to avoid or disable the majority of his spy network and detection spells throughout the school.
So, with Snape's help, Rose had been forced to kill Dumbledore to protect her secrets, while also making it look natural so no one would suspect anything. She and Snape also forged his will so that it would declare her the next headmistress of Hogwarts.
For nearly two more years everything seemed to be going well, until professor McGonagall this time seemed to grow suspicious, resulting in Rose forcing her to experience a stroke. Now she was staying in St. Mungo's in a vegetative state, unresponsive to everything around her.
It killed Rose to have to do that to the deputy headmistress, but she HAD to. In Dumbledore's case though she hadn't felt nearly so bad, especially after she learned that he still planned to groom Harry into a weapon to use against Voldemort if he ever did return, even after Rose defeated him and removed the Horcrux from Harry's scar.
And so she thought that maybe she would be able to live in peace for a while, until Hermione disappeared.
...
"Thank you for the lesson headmistress!" Declared a second year boy, as his two friends parroted him before turning to leave her office.
"You're very welcome boys. And make sure to come back if you experience any more....problems." Rose told them as she pulled her robes back on, and watched them leave before going to sit at her desk.
Around her the portraits of the previous headmasters and headmistresses glared down at her with undisguised disgust, but Rose just ignored them as she always did while thinking.
School was back in session after the winter break, and still there was no word about Hermione or where she had gone. Even Basil, the feathered serpent she found in central America, had been unable to track her. The only clue Basil had discovered was that the last place where her scent was, her dorm room, was also filled with the scent of something dark and revolting.
That had been all the evidence Rose needed to know that someone, or someTHING had taken Hermione. And right under her nose too.
This made Rose frantic with worry since it meant that the other reincarnators must be turning their attention to this world, which she always knew would happen eventually. But she never expected them to target and kidnap Hermione right out from under her.
Since then, Rose had been debating her options for getting Hermione back since, not only did Rose like Hermione from the books/movies, but after reincarnating and meeting her she truly came to see the bossy know-it-all as a troublesome little sister. Especially since she planned to have Harry marry her in the future in order to act as a form of camouflage for their relationship.
The first one she came up with was to use her ability to transfer worlds to go and retrieve her, before retreating back through the portal with her. But unfortunately her 'angel' shot that idea down since it would be too specific to the reincarnator that Hermione was with, which also confirmed Rose's suspicion of a reincarnator being involved.
That left one other option for her.
After defeating Voldemort, the basilisk, numerous Death Eaters and all sorts of dangerous magical beasts, Rose had acquired the ability to purchase a new cheat from the shop. So after much deliberation, she chose to become a Gatemother.
A Gatemother was a type of mage that specialized in space, with even some of their powers including time. Only slightly though.
She couldn't control space or anything, but Rose was able to create gates that would serve a variety of purposes. Not only could she travel around the world to any place she wanted without the dangers of Apparation, but she could use them to create spy-holes wherever she wanted, and even heal the wounds of anyone who passed through them.
And shockingly, she could even create passages to other worlds if she layered enough gates together.
Unfortunately that particular ability only involved worlds within THIS universe, so Rose couldn't just travel to other worlds and universes freely. Unless...
Apparently it only took a few dozen gates to travel around this universe to different worlds. BUT, in theory, Rose MIGHT be able to travel to different universes with enough gates stacked on one another. Instead of just a few dozen or hundred though, it would take her MILLIONS of even HUNDREDS of millions to do so.
Rose didn't know how many gates she actually had access too, as of course there was a limit that a single gate mage could create. It was why she chose Gatemother, as that particular rank would grant her the most power as a gate mage.
BUT, she could approximate that her gates numbered AT LEAST in the millions, as when she looked 'inwards' to all of the gates she possessed, they resembled grains of sand on a beach. If she were lucky, then maybe Rose would even have up to a billion gates.
Either way, she NEEDED to figure out where Hermione was, and her 'angel' did confirm that she would be able to create a passage to Hermione if she were able to layer enough gates to do so. But by doing so, she would also be opening a passage for whoever took her as well.
"I just need to do it!" Rose eventually decided, standing suddenly, her mind made up.
She needed to help Hermione!
Her decision made, Rose Evans pulled a mirror out of her pocket and spoke into it.
"Snape, I need you to gather EVERYONE and have them meet me in the Forbidden Forest. I'll explain when we get there."
"Yes headmistress." Snape answered in his usual drawl, which made her feel damp between the legs once more.
"No!" She sternly chided herself. "Orgy later, rescue Hermione now!"
Rose ignored the portraits of the previous headmasters shaking their heads at her in exasperation, while Dumbledore's silently lamented that he had met his end from such a person.
Before leaving Rose made sure she had her most powerful artifacts that she had collected over the years in case she needed them. The Deathly Hallows.
Though not activated, she had the Cloak of Invisibility hanging on her shoulders, the Stone of Resurrection on her finger in the form of a ring, and the Elder Wand that she had bound to herself after killing Dumbledore.
Together, they made her the Master of Death, a title that had significantly strengthened her death attribute magic, and all of the skills she had acquired in relation to it. Equipping all of the artifacts also strengthened her abilities significantly, on top of the boost just from wielding the Elder Wand.
It was safe to say Rose Evans was the most powerful witch in the world right now, eclipsing even Dumbledore, Voldemort, and Grindelwald all in their prime. And she was barely halfway through her twenties.
Her preparations finished, Rose traveled via gate to the Forbidden Forest, where she found those she had called for already waiting for her.
Their numbers included all of the professors at Hogwarts, Remus, Sirius, Hagrid, all of the elder Weasley brothers, Bill, Charlie, Fred, George, and even Percy, as well as several Aurors and former Death Eaters that Rose counted within her inner circle.
In total, a few dozen figures were waiting for her arrival, and when she appeared Snape readily stepped forward.
"We are all here headmistress." He drawled, even while sending pointed looks to Sirius and Remus. Rose couldn't help but find this funny every time she saw it since they had spent countless nights in bed together. But she wasn't laughing this time.
"Good." She said, before turning her attention to everyone else gathered.
"I know this is short notice, and I apologize, but as many of you know Hermione is missing. I don't know where she is, but I MAY be able to bring her back to us in a manner similar to a summoning. However she may not be brought back alone. I have it on good authority that Hermione was taken by someone, and they may appear with her. This person would be VERY powerful and VERY dangerous. So much so that not even Voldemort would compare to them."
As Rose explained what they were all doing there, several faces paled from the idea of a person more powerful than Voldemort. Someone who Rose considered undoubtedly would be their enemy.
"I will contact the Ministry to have them send Aurors to act as support around Hogwarts." Said a deep voice, belonging to Kingsley Shaklebolt, who pulled out a mirror to relay a message to them as Rose did to Snape earlier. Rose was glad she made the use of them far more common than the books and movies.
"The full might of the Ministry should be here within a matter of minutes." Kingsley said a moment later, to which Rose nodded in appreciation.
She then closed her eyes and focused, prompting everyone together ready as she recalled all the gates she could afford to in preparation. She didn't know how many she would need to make the passage, so it was better to be prepared rather than not.
Once that was done, she closed her eyes and turned her face upwards, towards the heavens.
Rose began to slowly spin in a circle while twirling her arm above her, placing gate after gate after gate until they numbered in the dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions, and TENS of millions!
When she had placed over a hundred million gates Rose began to grow worried since she had already depleted a large chunk of her gates to do so, and she still needed to supply more.
But then she reaffirmed her intention to get Hermione back and focused on her, willing the gates to find Hermione no matter what universe she was in.
She continued going until the amount numbered in the HUNDREDS of millions of gates, making Rose actually start to worry about if she would have enough gates or not.
Thankfully, her worries were unfounded.
"I got her!" Rose exclaimed suddenly, alerting everyone present as they readied themselves for whatever state Hermione would be in when she arrived, and whatever company she would bring with her.
Rose meanwhile kept her gaze skyward, literally feeling it as Hermione and someone else traveled through her gates, confirming that her worries of someone following her had been valid.
"Get ready.... Here they come!" Rose declared as they neared the final gate, only for them to vanish suddenly.
"Huh?" Rose uttered in confusion, wondering where they had gone. HOW they had escaped her passage of gates.
"Are they coming?" Sirius asked her curiously.
"I don't... They disappeared..." Rose uttered, her mind racing as she began to wonder if she had built the passage wrong. But then, Basil suddenly hissed in her mind via their bindings.
"Missstressss! I sssenssse sssomeone ssstrong in the castle!"
Rose paled from the information, even as she turned to run.
"The castle! They're in the castle!"
Her words created a sense of urgency as
ALL of them hurried forwards, even as Rose used what few gates she had left at her disposal to expedite the process.
Transferring from the Forbidden Forest to the entrance hall in an instant, Rose threw open the doors to check on the students eating dinner. And as she did so her eyes gravitated to the same scene everyone else was watching, as Hermione was completely naked and bounced on a man's lap.
Rose took the briefest of seconds to look at the man beneath her, before she pulled out her wand and screamed the spell that she deemed the most appropriate.
"AVADA KEDAVRA!"
...
Time seemed to slow as Alex watched the flash of green light fly towards him, even as Hermione continued bouncing on his cock.
To anyone else, it would be the sign of impending death.
Avada Kedavra was the killing curse, unblockable, and impossible to survive when hit by it with one sole exception. And seeing the impending death approaching him, Alex clicked his tongue in annoyance.
He reached out a hand, and lazily flicked it upwards.
*CRASH!*
An explosion sounded and debris fell from above as the killing curse was deflected up towards the ceiling, damaging it from the raw power of the curse as chunks of stone and dust rained down from above. Only, the stone and such halted before they could hit any of the screaming students, and reversed their trajectory as they fitted themselves back where they originated from.
"Wha-?!" Rose sputtered as she tried to comprehend what she had seen, before a force flung her backwards and the great doors closed themselves behind her.
"Just a few minutes of privacy please. Then I'll deal with you." A disembodied voice echoed throughout the chamber, making the professors glance around warily while a few went to help her.
"Headmistress, you used an Unforgivable!" Exclaimed Pomona Sprout, head of Hufflepuff house.
"I had to Pomona..." Rose said as Hagrid readily helped her to her feet. "My plan to rescue Hermione worked, but it also brought HIM while he was in the middle of r@ping her!"
A shocked gasped came from those around Rose before they all turned their attention to the great hall, where the r@pist currently was with the rest of their students.
"THE BASTAAAAAAAARD!" Hagrid roared, before a boom sounded out as he slammed one of his massive fists on the giant double doors to try and get inside. But they didn't even budge.
Soon the rest of those gathered also started to help as they fired numerous spells at the doors to try and blow them down and rescue their students. At the same time, Rose attempted to open a gate into the great hall to allow herself and the others access, but to no avail.
Meanwhile, Alex's mind was racing as he thought about Rose and her reaction. There had almost been a type of desperation in the way she reacted to his presence.
He understood they were supposed to be enemies, but immediately going for the killing curse was a little extreme in his opinion, ESPECIALLY considering all of the people around him that it might have hit instead...
Speaking of...
"I think it's time to put a pause on our playing around Hermione." Alex said while patting her butt, as the know-it-all was STILL riding him despite their audience and the killing curse sent his way.
At the same time, he also applied several restrictions over space throughout the entire great hall, making it impossible to alter space within it. Alex didn't know what form of spatial ability Rose possessed, but he hoped this would be enough to restrict them for the time being.
If she could create those same portals that brought him and Hermione here, then Alex REALLY didn't want her making one to give him a killing curse up the ass or something.
"Do we have to?" Hermione whined since she was close to cumming, which Alex could tell. And while normally he wouldn't mind finishing before taking care of business, things were different with a reincarnator present.
"Yes, we do. Don't worry, we can play more later after I deal with this." Alex said, giving her ass a squeeze before hermione reluctantly climbed off of his cock, which prompted numerous gasps from those who could now see it in its full glory.
With a wave of his hand, Alex garbed Hermione a set of Gryffindor robes while also conjuring a pair of shorts for himself to at least pretend to have a form of modesty, much to the disappointment of the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw girls that were nearby.
"First things first..." Alex muttered to himself as he waved his hand again, and every boy present felt a slight 'pop' as he severed the things he could feel them being bound by.
They all quickly jerked their heads and looked around at the sudden sensation, but apparently none of them could figure out where it came from. Meanwhile Alex was already debating what the magic binding the boys must have been for, his mind not having to go too far due to the story Hermione told him about Harry, Malfoy and Snape, which she also just revealed to the entire school.
"Who here has done naughty things with headmistress Rose?" Alex asked, his voice quiet even as it carried over the entire student body, and rich with divine authority. It hadn't been a question, but a demand for them all to answer. And they did.
Every. Single. Boy.
From every single house, and every single year, every single male in the great hall threw their hand up in the air at Alex's question.
The overwhelming evidence made Alex's mind go numb, especially since they weren't even halfway through the year yet, and all of the first year boys raised their hands as well!
Even Alex, despite constantly being referred to as the incarnation of lust, had his lines that he would not cross! If he were as loose as Rose with his lines, then he would have already even bedded Myuu, Videl and Kale!
"Now, who has been made to do naughty things with other boys by headmistress Rose?" Alex asked next, thanks to the scene Hermione had painted for him before. And almost like before, just about the entire male student body had their hands up. The only exceptions were a few first years, but that was to be expected.
"Merlin's balls..." Swore one of the girls at the Gryffindor table, who Alex guessed was Lavender Brown as she too looked out over the rest of the student body, giving voice to what was going through every other girl's head.
For several years now they had wondered why the boys didn't pay them very much attention as they got older, and now they know why. And the answer filled them all with varying levels of disgust, nausea, anger, and pity for the boys.
After all, now that Alex had removed the magical bindings that Rose had placed on them, ensuring their silence and complacency, several of the boys appeared green at the recollection of the things they did. Some of them even throwing up, or pointedly looking away from their best friends as unwanted memories resurfaced.
With a snap of his fingers, all of the boys fell unconscious, including Harry as he too grew increasingly confused. Alex was worried that the savior of the wizarding world was the one who would be suffering the worst in the coming days, as it was obvious from a single glance that Rose had been grooming him his entire life.
"What'd you do to them?!" One of the girls demanded of Alex, one he recognized to be Susan Bones.
"Relax, they're all just asleep. After all, I still need to deal with Rose without them all making themselves a liability." Alex said without concern, before he waved his hand again so that the tables disappeared while the boys were moved to the other end of the hall.
"If you all join them at that end, I'll erect a barrier so that no wayward spells or debris will risk hitting any of you." Alex told them calmly.
Though no one moved at first, the first year girls made to do as Alex requested before the other female students followed suit, with their prefects even starting to try and regain some sense of order. Normally the head boy and girl would also be involved in that, but Harry was still unconscious, while Hermione didn't plan to leave Alex's side.
"So what are you thinking?" Hermione asked while moving to stand at Alex's side.
"Simple, fight fire with fire. Or in this case, magic with magic." Alex said as a magic circle appeared beneath him, before a cloak appeared on his shoulders that looked like the night sky, complete with twinkling stars that moved as the cloak fluttered. Hermione even suspected that Alex had somehow secretly cut out a piece of the night sky just to make it.
And while she wanted to comment about how wizards technically didn't wear cloaks and shorts with their upper body exposed, Hermione bit her tongue when she noticed two people approaching them.
The first had dirty-blonde hair and a vacant dreamy look in her eyes, which was enough for the entire school to identify her as Luna Lovegood, nicknamed Loony.
"Hello." Luna said dreamily as she walked up to Alex.
"Hello to you." Alex replied back to her with a smile.
"I just wanted to say thank you for getting rid of all the Wrackspurts that were infesting the castle. They were getting REALLY bad." Luna told Alex while glancing pointedly at some of the boys.
"Anytime."
"And does you being here mean that headmistress Rose will be leaving? I never really liked her for some reason, even when she was trying to act like my friend."
"Of course." Alex said firmly, as whatever happens with Rose, she would NOT be allowed to continue acting within a school. Not even Cara was as bad as her, and was LITERALLY a shouta-con!
"That's good. I think you would be a much better headmaster." Luna said, before going to join the rest of the students at the end of the hall.
"..."
"What's the betting that half the girls in the school would be knocked up in your first week as headmaster?" Hermione asked him.
"I'll take that bet, mostly because I can control if I get a girl pregnant or not, AND my fertility rate is REALLY low even without that. I'd be lucky to get a single girl pregnant after a week-long orgy." Alex stated, making Hermione pout since she would have lost the bet, unless Alex went out of his way to make her win.
While they were speaking, the second girl Hermione had noticed stepped forward, her icy expression fixed on Alex intensely.
"Pardon my rudeness, but I have something to ask you." She stated, to which Alex gave her his complete attention.
"And what is that miss...Greengrass?" Alex asked her hesitantly, while Hermione nodded in confirmation beside him.
"It's simple, man whose name none of us even know, why should we trust you over headmistress Rose?" The girl, Daphne Greengrass, asked him seriously.
"That's an excellent question." Alex said, while nodding in agreement. "How about you DON'T trust me? I mean, I am a piece of shit who will stick his cock into any piece of ass that walks by without a second thought, and has wives numbering in the hundreds back home. In fact..."
The more he spoke, the more Alex looked at Daphne as he noticed something about her. Something hiding within her.
*SNAP!*
"!?!"
The next thing Daphne knew, Alex snapped his fingers and her clothes literally tore themselves away from her body, leaving her completely naked in the middle of the great hall.
"You-?!" Daphne exclaimed indignantly as she tried to over her naked body, only her limbs refused to listen to her even as Alex placed his hand against her chest, right between her breasts.
"Interesting..." Alex muttered as he analyzed Daphne's body, even as several of the girls gawked at the scene. After all, Daphne was known as the ice queen of Slytherin for a reason.
Even now, Alex's hand felt like it was burning her flesh from how hot it was, but he seemed to not even notice. Instead, he then said something that shocked Daphne.
"Come and see me when this is all over, and I should be able to do something about that curse."
"""???"""
Needless to say several girls were confused, while Daphne was stunned at what Alex just told her. After all, aside from her little sister, Astoria, and their head of house, Snape, no one in Hogwarts knew about the bloodline curse afflicting them.
So having Alex mention it mere seconds after meeting her, as well as mention curing her of it, left Daphne stunned as he took his hand away from her chest and clothed her once more.
She joined the other women feeling numerous conflicted emotions surging through her, such as fury that he had stripped and touched her, shock that he had diagnosed her so easily, and even a slight bit of hope that he might actually be able to free herself and her sister from the curse.
"Does she actually have a curse?" Hermione asked Alex as Daphne walked away.
"Of course, but let's set that aside for right now." Alex said as the last of the girls made their way to the end of the hall, before he erected a barrier separating them from the rest of the hall.
With that finished, Alex decided to go balls to the wall with this as he activated his magic divinity, which he acquired from a couple gods that had attacked Orario with Ares.
Raw magic power, neither demonic, divine, or anything else, saturated Alex's entire body and radiated outwards at their surroundings, making even Hermione arch a brow at him since she could feel the raw magic power Alex was putting out. And apparently she wasn't the only one.
As Alex started putting out even more magic power, he also became incredibly sensitive to the magic around him. And there was a LOT of it.
That only made sense though since they were at Hogwarts, an institution for teaching magic that had existed for a thousand years. What Alex had NOT expected though, was the school itself to respond to his mere presence.
Alex could feel what seemed to be intent probing him, analyzing who he was and his magic power before it did something else he had not been expecting. It submitted to him.
[NOTICE! Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has been subordinated!]
"Huh?" Alex muttered as the school itself apparently submitted to him, before his mind was suddenly flooded with information from everything within the boundaries of the school, similar to the realms of Oblivion.
"Ok..." Alex muttered as he processed everything as quickly as possible.
"What is it?" Hermione asked worriedly.
"Hogwarts.....Just submitted to me." Alex told her, as the reality of what just happened began to sink in.
Basically, Alex owned all of Hogwarts.
It was as if the school itself was tired of Rose, and submitted itself to him as a 'god' of magic in an attempt to be rid of her.
"Are you serious?!" Hermione demanded.
"No, he's outside the doors with everyone else." Alex replied, making her deadpan.
"Seriously though, we can figure this out later. Right now we have the entire Hogwarts faculty, and what seems like the entirety of the ministry trying to get through those doors. We can focus on Hogwarts herself afterwards." Alex said, before suddenly a throne-like chair materialized behind him. The same chair from Dumbledore's office.
"Oh this is really gonna piss her off." Alex said as he readily sat in the chair, which felt as if it were trying to make him as comfortable as possible.
And once he had settled, he willed the doors to open while Hogwarts complied.
