"Boo" Shoryaz apparated just behind a man intensely working on rune project
"'\|*!! What the F**k, SHORYAZ!!"
"Hehe Raymond you've become sloppy again, if I was enemy you would be dead by now"
"You do know this office is one of the highest warded place comparable to president house, anyone else trying to break in here would have long turned into ash, so how did you enter this time? Last time you just bulldozed your way through wards destroying all the hard effort of 34 wizards and money worth 27 grand"
"Apparation" Smiled Shoryaz slyly
"Apparation, really? C'mon that should be impossible even for you we have updated the security such that even those freak of magic house elves and your phoenix can't flame here, you'll need to be at least at least-"
"Yep"
"B-But there's no Tier 7 Apparation knowledge anywhere in whole world"
"Hehe, got bits and pieces in India, Those monks are really hyperintelligent Raymond it's like they know everything but just don't want to share the knowledge without something of equal exchange, have to sacrifice too much rare ingredients, and some family's secret book this time. But it was worth it, I'll update the ward scheme tonight learned some new excellent wards that will be really helpful after some modifications you won't even need to Ask Stella for guarding duty from now on."
"That'll really helpful Stella skills in runes are even better then mine you know, I just don't understand why she wants to be a warlock it's waste of a such an amazing talent."
"C'mon Raymond it's her dream to BEST 'LIGHT LADY' EVER"
"You do know there's no such term light lady, right?"
"Tell that to Stella"
Raymond can't just help mutter profanity in low voice, he know Stella is too childish, stubborn and bull headed you can't win an argument against her, and only people she ever listens to is this bastard and her mother only because she can't win against them. He knows it because he tried few times and she would beat shit out of him everytime.
"Ouch" "Hey why did you just jinxed me?"
"Because I know you're cursing me in your mind." Shoryaz withdrew his over coat and hanged it over the stand, transfigured the nearby chair to exquisite plush sofa, enchanted it to perform massage and some comfort runes, summoned a bottle of Whisky from the collection over the end of the Room, conjured a glass and pour the alcohol in glass, again conjured ice the size of tennis ball and put it in the glass. All done in 2 seconds silently without the use of any ward or another type of focus.
Taking a sip " Ahh now I feel alive, can't say about anything else Bro but I really like your Alcohol collection. This one is quite good far better then the last one" says Shoryaz indicated to shelves occupying one third of the whole room filled with numerous bottles of various expensive brands.
Raymond can't really hide his smug expression, he's not a fan of drinking himself but is a collector mainly because he got too much money to spend and this bastard of a childhood friend along with Stella loves to experience new alcohol mix and recipes but got no interest and time to do mundane tasks of buying anything by themselves.
After enjoying the whisky for a while "So how's company doing? What's the update with 'Magicnet'?"
"Hmm it's still in early phase though it's already better then no-maj Internet, but it'll take at least few years to reach the standards you defined so about 5 years I guess before we launch it to public."
"What about other products?"
"MagicPhone 3 is selling the best as always, though demands of both MagicPad and MagicFold is increasing exponentially"
'Magic is really OP shit man, In 'Sourabh' memory all these products appear in market in 2010 to 2020 and it required so much R&D experimenting and expenditure to reach that point, and here all of these are possible in 1990 when no-maj are only up-to-date to wired Telephone. Few advanced magic array circuit and runes is sufficient to create smartphone *cough* MagicPhone for Audio & Video Calling (works like two way mirror), Texting (works like two way enchanted diary), Photo and Video recorded through users own eyes, Music playback (through radio streaming) all working with witch or wizard magic completely hidden from mundane world only visible to user's magic it's bonded to. In future With advent of MagicNet *Web 2.0* and development of apps and games by teaching these dumb wizarding community it would became complete experience with MagicTube *YouTube* MagicGram *Instagram* MagicBook *Facebook* MagicApp *WhatsApp* and games it'll became complete experience.' Exporting and selling globally would have to wait since those old bastards don't want too much modernization to their precious 'Ancient & Sacred society'
When Shoryaz was lost in his thoughts Raymond suddenly interrupted him " Oh by the way you got new mails among them one especially require you to urgently respond to them.
Shoryaz' just summoned all his mails, and all just started hovering in front of him opened by themselves from their envelope. He looked them all through a glance and just pick one of his interest quietly reading it through.
"So what do goblins wants this time?" asked Raymond.
"It's about that thing we talked about last time with Stella"
Raymond become sombre thinking about their last talk, knowing what it really mean to his best friend yet he still has to ask "is it really necessary for you to go there, you don't owe anyone anything there"
"You know that it's the last thing I promised my mother" replied Shoryaz with melancholic smile.
"But Shoryaz --"
"It's alright Ray, Do come visit me though I'll be staying there for a long time from now on" "Silly"
*Pop* Appeared A House elf smiling widely anticipating some work to do at last "Yes master Shoriiyyaazz"
"Get ready, we're moving to Britain"
"We're bringing everything prepared master?"
"Yep"
"Okay master" replied one hyperactive happy elf before disappearing with a pop
While Raymond was pulling his hairs in frustration 'ahh goddammit here goes my latest security wards butchered by freaking house elf, just like her master'
"Sorry Raymond you know how silly is, let me fix them, I'll upgrade it too this time"
With a swish of Shoryaz hand a Red magic Circle with millions of Intricate details started forming in few seconds and when it array became half the size of room it slowly enveloped the whole building and disappear in motes of light.
"Done"
Raymond was standing just behind him holding two blank array sheet that would be used to upgrade the security of both his and Stella house, too familiar with the process that always occur whenever Shoryaz comes across roaming around another continent.
Shoryaz took the sheets and for once started chanting gibberish of his secret language creating warding schemes that's better then any other in whole world.
"Done"
"Oh By the way you're going tell Stella where and why I'm going 'again' " and gone he was with no audible or visible indication of apparition or teleportation of any sort like he was never there.
Only after few seconds later do Raymond came to realisation "Nooooooooo"
While a gate open and beautiful lady enters the office "why are you shouting Ray?"
Raymond can only cry with no tears "noooooooo"
Meanwhile Shoryaz in his house Onyx Manor "So it's finally starting huh the story 'Harry freaking Potter' a boy who I am sure our dear Original Author hated too much for some reason because poor kid he's ' The boy who dies nearly every Year and literally dies too' in supposedly story written for kids.
