Chapter 29: Nursing (Post-Troll)

We appeared in the middle of the infirmary and Madam Pomfrey was surprised at our sudden appearance.

"We need you to remove these pieces of wood from her leg, quick," I told the mediwizard as she showed him Hermione's calf.

"Put her on the bed over there and wait outside" she said without asking much, for her at this moment the safety of her new patient was the main thing.

I placed her on the bed and stayed on my side against the nurse's words, while the phoenix also stood near the stretcher we were on. Madam Pomfrey walked over pulling her wand out of her.

"What are you doing, I told you to get out" she scolded me.

"I'm staying here with her" I told her, involuntarily activating my [dominant presence] to a very high level, making even Hermione lying here shudder a little remembering that feeling she felt that time when I threatened to stop her from going to the library.

The school nurse was also surprised at the aura she gave off, but she didn't want to waste any more time. She could see that her leg wasn't bleeding, which was weird, but she could feel the magic in the girl's body, so she thought it was the work of some teacher, maybe. She was pretty bruised too, with bruises and a few cuts from when we dodged the troll's punches.

"This is going to hurt a little"

"Is it going to hurt? If it was, I would have taken it out myself and I wouldn't bother bringing her here." I yelled in annoyance, since I thought I could save her pain by bringing her here.

This annoyed her, but she wasn't planning on paying attention to a child right now.

"Okay Red..." Hermione told me trying to stop my exultation.

"Then I can only do this" I said as she placed my hand on her leg as close as possible to her wound, but without touching it.

The nurse was about to reprimand me, but then she saw how a faint aura was exuded from my hand and she could tell how the girl who was sobbing just now seemed to quickly relax.

"Go on" I reminded him.

She no longer waited and with a spell the piece of wood was compressed and then released from Hermione's leg, causing her to scream, but she bit her arm to suppress it. After that, I used another spell to clean her wound and disinfect it, but before I started casting healing spells on Hermione or trying to give her a potion, I spoke to the flaming bird that's been watching us.

"It's your turn" I said to Fawkes, while looking at the [Blood Control(Numb)] skill obtaining notice that was late.

The phoenix looked at me for a second, but then went down to Hermione's bed and positioned itself on her injured leg, then crouched down and dropped a tear that, after falling and giving off a slight vapor, slowly but quickly healed the pierced leg. .

Hermione's eyes widened and Madam Pomfrey simply sighed seeing that she had nothing to do. She was about to see the other minor wounds on her body, but I was already taking care of that, so she gave up when she saw how they healed with the naked eye, believing that it was part of the healing of the phoenix tears.

"You're lucky girl, phoenix tears are not a common medicine, but even so I would like you to stay tonight to be safe" said the nurse putting away her wand, while the door of the infirmary was heard opening.

Everyone who had previously joined us in the bathroom entered and came to where Hermione was.

"How is the little girl?" the teacher asked.

"She's all right, Dumbledore's phoenix was very helpful," she said as she pointed out to Fawkes that he was preening his feathers.

Professor McGonagall sighed in relief upon hearing this.

"We need to talk to them, it's something very important" she told the nurse knowing her personality.

"Okay, there are no other patients today, although I would like the boy to stay as he should" he pointed to Ron "You can stay for a while, but only a little, then you will have to let her rest" He warned this last part with great emphasis , very similar to my domineering aura from just now.

The nurse left and the four children stayed with the two teachers, Quirrell was not with them.

"I think they owe us an explanation," said Snape, who had been silent until now.

"He'll see us…" Harry was about to respond, but he didn't know how to respond.

"They're going to tell me what they were doing in the bathroom and why they weren't in their bedrooms, it could have killed them" The teacher yelled now that she had a chance to do it.

"They were..." Hermione was going to say, but I stopped her before turning to the teacher.

"What does it matter why we were there, it's not our fault, I could have had masterful diarrhea and that's excuse enough...they can't blame us if we're lucky enough to be caught in the bathroom by a troll and have nothing else to do We had to defend ourselves to prevent him from killing us" I ranted "And why is there a troll inside the castle, that's impossible, we have pictures, ghosts and elves all over the castle capable of warning if one approaches. Even someone as blind as Potter can see it from a distance, no offense"

After saying that, the teacher fell silent. She really couldn't blame some children for something they didn't know, but still she was very worried about them and for that she scolded them at first.

"That still doesn't explain why Potter and Weasley weren't in their dorms or why the other Weasley was in the girls' bathroom," Snape said, not wanting to leave without claiming some victims. "I hope they can tell us," he said sarcastically.

"After they..." Harry took a while to give me a doubtful look and then went on "Ron's nose was broken, we brought him to the hospital wing and Madam Pomfrey fixed him up. She told him to stay here in the hospital wing." , but since she didn't want to miss Halloween dinner we begged her to let us go, she agreed, but she would have to come back tomorrow. We went to the great hall and heard that Hermione was in the bathrooms..." he stopped not knowing whether to explain reason why he was there" as we thought she didn't know about the troll we came to warn her, but it was too late... and then Red asked us to distract him, when we did he was able to attack him from behind and defeat him" Harry said moving their hands to represent it.

"Then you guys showed up," Ron finished, in a strange voice caused by the wound on his nose.

"Your performance is very brave, but very stupid, if something like that happens you shouldn't go yourselves, you should have tried to tell a teacher" Professor McGonagall complained before taking a breath leaving the room in silence as she left the pair of tense children "For your bravery and courage in wanting to warn your classmates in danger and face a troll each of you earn 10 points for Gryffindor" he said causing both children to look amazed and almost jump for joy "But, for taking the most reckless decision instead of calling a teacher, each will be subtracted 5 points"

This made both of them wipe their smiles off their faces, but they were still somewhat satisfied that they had at least gained a few points, which is not normal for them.

"Now I suppose Red Weasley can explain to us what he did in the girls' bathroom," Snape said somewhat annoyed that he couldn't bring Harry and Ron any more trouble, so I turned his attention to me instead.

"Maybe he's just doing perverted things with Hermione," I said matter-of-factly, surprising everyone present, even the phoenix aside.

"What? No! Professor McGonagall, that's not true." Hermione almost jumped out of bed trying to explain that it wasn't true.

"Mr. Weasley!" caught my eye, the teacher.

"It's that we thought that there would be no one during the Halloween dinner, so we took the opportunity to use the girls' bathroom, who would have guessed that there would be a troll to interrupt us" she continued.

"Shut up Red" the girl lying next to me yelled at me as she shook me almost crying again.

"MR. WEASLEY" The teacher also yelled at me.

"Okay, okay, calm down, I need to joke around a bit. In case you don't remember I had to take on a four star rated creature, all by myself, while protecting Hermione, keeping us both from being killed... He needed to release tensions" I said, causing them both to calm down.

Hermione let go of me remembering how I protected her in the beginning and considering how I am, it seemed like it would be normal for me to try to relax by joking around, so even though I was upset, I ignored it for the time being, but I was very embarrassed. Professor McGonagall, on the other hand, felt bad about letting two 11-year-olds have to deal with such a creature alone, so she could understand why they weren't in the best condition to respond coherently, so she thought about leaving it. go through the moment.

Yep, I'm manipulating them both, but what can you do, is that I am.

"I went to find Hermione" I started to explain more seriously this time "I knew she was in the bathroom and since there was no one in there. We had a fight a while ago and I wanted to settle things, so I stayed with her talking for a while. We didn't know there was a troll on the loose and it caught us by surprise, the rest of the story you already know" I didn't give any more explanations.

"Okay, I guess that's enough," said Professor McGonagall. "Going into the girls' bathroom will deduct 10 Slytherin points," she said, causing Snape's lips to twitch. I just made a sign for her to continue, that I didn't care "but for protecting her friend and defeating the troll she will receive 30 points, is that okay with you Professor Snape?"

Professor Snape couldn't do anything about the reduction caused by her entering the girls' bathroom, but, as Dean of Slytherin, he had more of a vote than McGonagall on the troll thing. He didn't want to give me points, but he didn't want to reduce them to his house either, so he just nodded in acceptance.

"Now I think everyone should go to rest, go home, there they are waiting for you with some food" Professor McGonagall told us "Although I don't know if Ron Weasley wants to stay in the infirmary" she mentioned remembering what Madam Pomfrey had mentioned to her .

"NO, I'm going to Gryffindor" Ron answered quickly with his weird tone of voice.

"I'm staying" I told the teacher.

"Shut up Mr. Weasley, go back to Slytherin and don't cause any more trouble" Snape admonished me annoyed.

"Yes, I should let Miss Granger rest," Professor McGonagall also agreed with Snape.

"If you want to get away from her you will have to be more tenacious than a troll, since not one of them was able to get it" I said as I sat firmly on a chair next to the bed "And remember how I finished so you know what to expect from me" I said even though it was a lie, I didn't have the strength or the condition to fight in the same way as before.

The teachers were about to protest, especially Snape, but they were stopped by Hermione.

"I…it doesn't bother me, it would be nice if you stayed a while to keep me company" Hermione said. She had the courage to stop the teachers and stand against her by protecting me so she can stay.

"Okay, you can stay a while longer until Madam Pomfrey tells you to leave. We'll ask you to send them something to eat" Professor McGonagall no longer objected knowing how upset the children can be after today.

"No need" I said as I touched the girl's leg next to me, signaling to Hermione, making her nod to what I said.

They all left, leaving the two of us alone in the room. There was silence for a moment until a whisper was heard from the girl.

"Thank you"

"You're welcome, I told you I'd protect you, even from a distance" I replied making us stay silent for a moment.

"Hmm... if you have food with you?"

"My little glutton is still hungry" I teased her.

"Do you have food or not?" I ask not so nicely anymore.

"Do not"

"And why did you refuse to bring us food?" I was somewhat upset.

"Because I don't have prepared dishes" 'because I ate them' "but I have this" I said as she took out some ingredients from my inventory. I placed them on a table that was there and I started to prepare something with magic.

"Don't tell madam Pomfrey that I did this... you don't either Fawkes" I told them getting a look from the girl and a song from the bird.

"It's beautiful," said Hermione looking at the Phoenix.

"Yes it is"

"And she was able to take us from the bathroom to the infirmary in an instant, and her tears healed my leg" she said fascinated with the creature in front of her.

"Yes yes yes, but I don't see that you're thanking me for calling you, or treating your leg first. You're getting all the credit Fawkes" I said to the bird getting a squeal in response.

"It's just that I'm still mad at you" Hermione answered with a pout.

"I thought after all this that was behind me, I fought a troll for you. Doesn't that give me some points?" I complained as I approached with a tray with different Sandwiches, which was the only thing I could prepare in these conditions.

"Well... some..." She said a little shyly, remembering how I dragged her from side to side to avoid being crushed, and as at the last moment I stood in front of her "But I still don't want to forgive you for the other thing" she murmured.

"Okay, eat and go to sleep" I told him.

With that we ate what I prepared while we talked a little among ourselves about what happened in this time and about the troll fight. When we were done I made sure to clean everything up before Madam Pomfrey arrived.

The nurse arrived and seeing me still there she came to tell me to leave, but I refused.

"I'll sleep next to her," I said, causing the nurse's brow to furrow and Hermione to blush and be about to ask me to leave.

Before they could say anything I sat on the chair and used the [sleep] skill set in a few minutes, so that he ended up asleep sitting on the chair. Madam Pomfrey was surprised, since as her mediwizard she was able to verify that she was indeed asleep. She was still about to wake me up to tell me to go away, since it was unhealthy to sleep sitting up and she didn't want me to stay here, but Fawkes came down and perched on my shoulder. He screeched at her then shrunk down and lay on top of me to rest as well. The nurse had to give up for today, but she told herself that she would kick me out of here tomorrow.

Hermione was also surprised that I fell asleep on the chair, thinking it was because of her, she felt pretty good and lay down on the bed with her head in my direction and tried to sleep.

A few minutes later I woke up, it's not that I don't want to sleep, but if I use my skill it's a deep sleep and I still have to wait for someone.

They didn't disappoint me, half an hour or so later, when everything was dark and Madam Pomfrey had already gone to sleep, a person quietly entered the hospital wing. When she was close to us I half opened my eyes and the phoenix on my shoulder also woke up.

Silently, I took my wand out of my inventory and pointed it at the sleeping girl to my left.

"Stupefy" A jet of red light fell on the sleeping girl.

"Don't you think it's rude to cast a spell on a sleeping girl?" Asked the old man who had entered the infirmary.

"Do you want him to listen to us?" I asked the director whispering.

"I'm just saying this for your consideration. Looks like you were expecting me"

"Fawkes stayed here, so I figured he'd come by. Thanks for letting him bring us in, although I also wish he'd help us with the troll before we needed him, and don't tell me you didn't know about it, or I'll make sure he's already here." he's senile" I said as I scratched the phoenix's chin.

"You had it all under control, impressive everything you've done at only 11 years old, I'm sure you'll go a long way. Although I'm sorry about what happened to Miss Granger, it was the reason I sent Fawkes after hearing her called... and because his threats were so persuasive, the school wouldn't put up with another incident like the previous one, so it seemed right to me to accept his demands" he laughed at the last part leaving aside the fact that he allowed the students to be in danger.

"You say that you have a cerberus next to the classrooms and a dark wizard as a teacher" I raised an eyebrow at him, but my expression quickly changed to one of dissatisfaction "I would be very angry with you if it wasn't because thanks to this my relationship with Hermione's better" I said as I stroked the hair of the sleeping... or unconscious girl. From the outside it could look very scary in a way

"I remind you again that this way of seeing things is not the right one" I lecture despite what he did.

"If someone else told me I might feel bad, but from you... Just tell me what you came for"

"I wanted to see how you two were doing, you don't always fight a troll and get out almost unscathed. But I think you want something from me if I'm not mistaken" she said as she cleaned her half-moon glasses.

"The truth yes. First I want the body of the troll"

"What do you want that for?" I ask somewhat dismayed by the request.

"I killed it, it doesn't matter if it belongs to the school or to you, I tried to kill myself, I beat it and now I want it. If you can put it in a much better containment bag, I'll give it back to you later or make one that lasts only a couple of days at least" I asked without the slightest decorum.

"...Hum, okay, I can accept your request, although I think your mother wouldn't let you hang a troll as a trophy in your house... I also realize I'll get another screamer tomorrow when she finds out" he said as he got up. he rubbed a temple with his fingers with his eyes closed.

I nodded because knowing my mother I knew it was something that would happen.

"Second, you owe me another favor because of the troll. You can say that you were ready to show up if things got bad, and I believe you, but that doesn't take away from the experience we suffered."

"I don't think I can owe him another favor considering the things he asks of me" she clarified as if he refused immediately before telling her what it was.

"Have some decency, you know it's your fault. Besides, I wasn't going to ask for anything as complicated as the above, that was a necessary thing. I still can't ask you for the favors I want because that wouldn't do me any good now" mainly because I don't have any money "But when I ask you it won't be big things. Let's do this, you said that if I caused any trouble in the internship I would withdraw from there immediately, because we don't take this favor as a second life, where in case of doing something like that , you will give me one more chance. Of course, if it doesn't happen you still owe me a favor" I said, causing the old man to sigh.

"Okay, I guess I can accept that. I think with you as a student I'll age faster," he said dejectedly, "Is that all Mr. Weasley?"

"Yeah, I don't think I have anything else, it would be fine if he let me sleep," I said as he settled me in the chair and let Fawkes jump onto Dumbledore's shoulder.

"Wouldn't you rather go to your bed to sleep?" He said as he received the bird on his shoulder.

"I have to show some sacrifice if I want things to get better," I said looking at Hermione.

The headmaster said nothing more and left with the phoenix from the infirmary. For my part, I adjusted Hermione's blanket and made my clone reappear and then sit down and start with the modifications. After thinking of a certain name for my new identity, I added a few little Asian features to it, which left me quite satisfied. I sent him to do his night work while I used the [Sleep] skill so I could rest even if I had to sleep sitting on the chair.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I returned.

First: I want to let you know that I've run out of chapters I had saved, so I don't know if I'll be able to publish one per day like before, but I'll see if I can try.

Second: I know there will be some who want lemons, and it's not like I'm not going to make them, but if they appear in the first year there will be few. It's not that I don't want to, but the original story wasn't like this, and even though it changed a bit, I don't want to go too far.

Coming back to the topic, I must tell you that I have zero experience writing erotica, seriously, it never crossed my mind to write something like this. There is also the issue of language, when I start writing it I don't know if some expressions that may be common to me will be understood by everyone. I have read several, but they have been translated from other languages ​​into Spanish and despite not having had so many problems, some left you more confused than excited.

So, I wanted to ask you if you can recommend me some novels of this type that are written in Spanish to be able to guide me or learn a little before I start writing mine, or I don't know, a dictionary to know which words I can use or which ones I can't so that I don't get confused.

This is just to try to improve the content.

Thanks for your attention.
