7 Academics,Acquittal and Tutoring
After the Orphanage was up and running he got working on the Magical Primary school.
Similar to the process for the orphanage this time he searched for witches and wizards teaching in his required subjects. But boy was he shocked when he found out the number of Witches and Wizards working as teachers thus he eliminated them by subject, teaching-skill, certification, Connection with children, etc.
Finally, he found all the teachers he found different teachers for 5-8 and 8-11. He also divided subjects which should be taught at which age and wrote textbooks for all the subjects. The subjects which were to be taught were as follows

He even combined modern writing and older cursive style to create a much neater and easier cursive style for writing and mastering. He also made the school provide education for A-levels in the Non-magical World until he made Hogwarts pick up its slack. He had plans for Hogwarts as far as revamping the educational system. As well as setting up a University level education in Hogwarts.
While he was setting up and writing books for the Magical Primary school, The most controversial trial was being held in the Wizengamot. Sirius Black had been deemed innocent, under questioning in veritaserum and Peter Pettigrew was found.
Sirius Black was seen leaving with the Longbottoms. After Sirius had reached home, Harold told the longbottoms that he would be taking Sirius to Potter Manor and immediately took his godfather to potter manor and then to the bathroom, where he showed him all the hygiene products, gave him his wand showed him his new hygiene spells and locked the door behind.
It was 1 hour later a much cleaner Sirius came out of the bath. It was honestly a testament to his living conditions when a simple bath had made him look much better. Without as much as giving a chance to speak, he then hurried Sirius to lie on the fit-bed.
Patient: Sirius Orion Black
Health Report:
High Malnutrition
Low Immunity
Low Water levels
Low Electrolyte levels
Massive dementor exposure
After reading this he immediately took a Starvers potion, a Mind Restorative Draught, an Immunity Building potion and shoved the potions down Sirius' throat. Then he called Jeeves and gave him the medical report to prepare meals for Sirius accordingly.
He then whispered to Jeeves that since he just took the starvers potion it was better to get a large number of foods Sirius dislikes first so that he can enjoy normal meals with everyone else.
By this time the effects of Mind restorative draught had worked its effects he slowly regained all his memories and occlumency shields till that night and he even remembered conversations with his dearest cousin in Azkaban.
Silent tears fell from his eyes as he remembered all his happy memories of his He asked: "What did you give me Harry and How do you know what to give me?"
Harold said as he gave the report from earlier to Sirius "I gave you a Starvers potion, a Mind Restorative Draught, an Immunity Building potion and the rest of it we will talk after we have something to eat."
Thus he leads his Godfather to the Dining Hall where the elves were continuously cooking and bringing lots and lots of food to the table. Harold noticed that mostly the foods were salads and greens of different natures.
But to his godfather, it was like a feast he immediately began munching the foods. Even Harold didn't think he could eat that many greens even with the starvers potion but thought that it was probably because he hadn't eaten them in so long.
He kept commenting "Is it just me or are salads tastier than 6 years ago." And kept on eating.
After 2 hours he finally seemed to have enough for him now. So after that, Harry took Sirius to his office with the computer. Immediately as they entered the office Harold had an excellent idea.
He sat Sirius down and computer parts and asked him to replicate these in his mindscape. After 45mins he successfully reproduced the computer in his mindscape. Harold then asked Sirius to allow him to enter his entered his own mindscape first and then create a storage device with functionality similar to a USB and then copied his A.I code into the device.
Thus Harold entered the mindscape of Sirius and began to look around. Most of the mindscape looked to be slowly repairing. When he finally found the computer in the mindscape he took out the storage device he brought and connected it to the computer.
The computer turned itself on and series of codes appeared to be flowing when finally the code was done 5 Sirius's shimmered into existence. Then immediately Harold came out and his Godfather was in deep sleep he put it into the code to make his godfather sleep immediately before the A.I's started their 'Spring Cleaning and repairing' of Sirius's mindscape. He also fed Sirius a Language crystal.
He had Jeeves put his Godfather in the Lord's bedroom. After that, he went back to Longbottoms manor for dinner and told them everything that happened and slept for the night.
Next morning when Harold went to Potter Manor he saw his godfather eating a Shawarma in one hand and the book he wrote for his Godfather on magical computing to better understand his A.I and the computer in the other.
He stood there and watch him go through six shawarmas before he finally finished reading the book and looked up he said happily, "Harry, Thanks for doing that for my Occlumency last night, I have never been clearer about my Life until now. The A.I made connections between my memories that I never saw before and gave me a new perspective of my life."
"So thanks for that. Now what happened to my Godson to become this intelligent and how was your life until now?" and so thus began the tale of Harold's journey thus far, this time he even told Sirius the existence of the library since no one other than himself currently has understanding enough on occlumency to take the knowledge from him. Then he told Sirius about the Horcruxes and also about Regulus's sacrifice.
He looked truly grief-stricken that he could have helped his brother. But eventually, after some counseling by Harry, he was able to get over it.
Sirius was currently in between apoplectic rage at Dumbledore and grief-stricken over his brother. But instead of rushing, he looked like he was waiting for something.
When Harold saw his patience to wait for to explain his plans he knew that Sirius really had a new perspective on life. Thus he told rather than attacking him now, they would slowly chip off his influence bit by bit and air out all his dirty the time they were done with him he would look like a Dark Lord in disguise. Even though Dumbledore had done a lot for the magical community, he had done more harm than good by his manipulations. Their first step was to get him removed from Chief Warlock and Supreme Mugwump posts.
After they were both done plotting of the MOB(Meddling Old Bastard), they moved on to lighter topics when Harold finished telling his plans for the magical world Sirius was practically beaming at his Godson.
After that the next few days Sirius was taking rest whereas Harold was typing up his new books. While talking to Sirius yesterday it came to his attention that there weren't any textbooks in the magical world and the average standard for witches and wizards completely depended on the standard of Hogwarts at their time of the study.
Thus he sat and wrote textbooks for all subjects he thought Hogwarts should have for all years. The subjects were Arithmancy, Astronomy, Care of Magical Creatures, Herbology, Charms, History of Magical world, Offensive and Defensive Magic, Transfiguration, Occulumency, Runes, Potions. He even made the books in color and had wizarding photographs for wands movements, creatures, etc for better understanding and visualization.
He even wrote an introductory book for First generation Witches and Wizards and recommended books to read so as to not offend someone. It even had tips and tricks like getting checked at, Magical Products that are not found in the non-magical world, etc.
Even Sirius took time to review his books as a way to brush up his knowledge and he even commented that his books were a lot easier to understand and had lots of information he would have probably love to have when he was in Hogwarts, he said he even had fun while reading.
Thus Harry found a reputable publishing house with worldwide connections to print and publish his books.
After seeing Sirius read his books with much interest Harold Offered Sirius tutoring over financial management and political maneuvering. Sirius rejected saying that he would like to learn on his own, so Harry sneakily gave him library versions of money management and politics to learn.
By this time Harold was getting bored so he took the idea of tutoring and instead of Sirius he offered it to Neville who happily agreed.
Since Neville had agreed and he was also a natural occlumens he made him repeat the process he had done with Sirius. This time Neville had a bit of a hard time since he had no understanding of runes but he had it done in 6 hours even though he was just copying,
After getting permission to enter the mindscape of Neville, Harry checked over Neville's work and noticed some mistakes after getting them fixed and having one last inspection he connected the data storage device. Just like with Sirius 5 Neville's shimmered into existence and Neville went asleep.
Harold watched as Neville fell asleep and asked one of the Longbottom elves to take him to bed.
After Neville woke up in time for supper he told that his mind was free of a lot of clutter and his thoughts were flowing freely. Thus I told him that I was going to start his primary education from tomorrow.
So after that, he started to teach Neville, with Neville's occlumency, his Heavens library teaching book and Neville's own determination to learn it was easy to teach Neville he was struggling a bit with computing and art, but with Harold teaching they were nothing more than Hiccups.
The longest thing that took to teach was calligraphy, But that was also learned easily, because after seeing Neville's struggle he had charmed a book so that it would show writing only if written correctly, and remove the ink if it is not acceptable and at end of the book it would show the time taken to complete the book. If the time taken each time was not shorter than previous times the amount of work would go up by two.
Thus Harold was able to get Neville Excellent writing in Two months. His record for the book was 4 hrs. Very good in Harolds Opinion, Harolds himself was 2hr 45min. Seeing the success of the book he gave Scrivenshafts the idea that the Book was recommended with the Pen.
So during 3-month tutoring of Neville, Neville was already at high school level at many subjects and he had been parallelly doing the Fit-bed routine and he was already in tip-top shape.
Since he was Physically fit, He taught Neville fencing and ancient sword fighting he took more to sword fighting than fencing but he was very good at both. He was so good in fact sometimes was even giving Harold a run for his money.
During this time he showed Neville along with the muggle world and even took him to some movies like Star Wars, he liked it very much so Harold took some tube light sabers charmed them to be unbreakable, work without battery and sting whenever hit by it and used it in fencing practice.
Were playing along and unknowingly or knowingly Neville was using 'the force' in their battles. During the whole time he was tutoring Neville he could see Augusta approval in her face but she never congratulated Neville or praised him, so one day when she was not busy he asked for her time and counseled her and then made her create the barrier between 'Dowager Longbottom' and 'Gran'.
