LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 11: Granger Is a Sore Loser
Note: I would like to start this chapter with a few lines-
If you doubt my love,
Break my heart,
If you doubt my soul,
Break my soul,
Even in the pieces,
You would only find your name,
Till this world remains,
Till this reality remains,
Till this universe remains.
AMAIRA'S POV—
After potions class was over, the Golden Trio escorted me to the transfiguration class. This time, it was Granger, who sat beside me. I could tell just by looking at his face he didn't want to sit beside me. But Potter and Weasel convinced him. I believe that they were a bit unsettled by me.
Now, the question of the century is, how should I approach Granger? I looked at the screen and saw my progress.
|Target: Hermes Granger (-14) |
|Target Points: 15|
|Points Earned: 5 Affection Points|
|Points Needed to Complete the Mission: 10 Affection Points|
I sighed tiredly. It's gonna be a long work, if I have to conquer Granger. Also, I haven't yet seen my rewards.
McGonagall entered the class. Everyone greeted her, except me of course. She said, "Good afternoon, students. Today we are going to learn a new spell, 'Fera Verto.' Can anyone tell me what this spell does?" Some few Slytherins raised their hands. From Gryffindor's side, it was Granger.
Do you all want to see some magic? I don't need a spell for this. I also raised my hand. Believe me, you all will see that McGonagall would not be able see me. Although I am sitting beside Granger, she won't be able to see me. It would be like I vanished.
McGonagall said, "Mr. Granger, answer it." See! I was invisible only for her eyes.
I turned towards Tracey and asked, "Can you see me?" She looked at me comically. She answered, "Yes." Her tone was awkward.
I told you. This magic can be applicable for only McGonagall, no one else. Granger said, "This spell turns an animal into a water goblet. The Latin words Fera and Verto mean 'beast or animal' and 'I turn' respectively."
"Excellent! Seven points to Gryffindor," said McGonagall. Granger smirked at me. Did I do something? Why is he smirking at me? Oi! I wasn't competing with you. I was showing my audience some magic. If anyone is more self-obsessed than Draco, it is him.
McGonagall said, "Students. Each of you has a small animal in front of you. It might be your pet, or some random animal. Perform the spell on it."
Longbottom's frog head turned into a water bubble while, its body remained the same. Weasel's rat also suffered the similar fate. Its tail got turned into a water drop. Seeing his tail like this, he started running around with Weasel running after him. Hah! Why is even he performing spells with that broken wand?
McGonagall's second favourite person, Granger performed the spell very easily. You must be thinking about the first one. Of course it's Potter.
When she saw his work, she awarded him 3 points. Granger once again smirked at me. Why? I am not competing with you. Argh! If you want it this bad then, I will give it you.
"Fera Verto"
The rat in front of me turned into a water goblet, and I must say it's perfect. It's better than Granger's.
Seeing my work, McGonagall chocked. It must be very difficult for her to digest that I did better than Granger.
"Good... work," she wheezed out.
I smiled, "Thank you... professor McGonagall." Hearing my words, McGonagall nodded with some difficulty and went away to check other students.

I looked at him in shock. What the hell?! Don't tell me Granger is a sore loser? When I looked at him, I found him glaring at me in hate. I flinched from his gaze. It was a subconscious action. The way he was looking at me was the same way my father looks at me. Do I have to conquer him?
'Liam, can't we skip Granger?'
"We can't. He is one of the best friends of the protagonist and he is very intelligent. Do you think that he would let his best friends fall in your trap?" said Liam.
'No, he won't.'
"So, Host... you have to do this."
It seems that I have no other choice. Granger is very intelligent. He definitely would unveil my plan. The only way to evade him, is to make him blind with love. A man in love is the same as a blind person. But how to do this?
