331. A Slow Time Skip

Spells to cheer people up already exist in the magical world. All he needed was to find a way to make a physical cure that is not addictive and actually makes the person better that at one point they'd stop taking the medicine. There should also be some way to make it so that if a person is not depressed the medicine won't work anymore.

With magic, it was clearly possible. All he needed to do was to make a pill with magical means first and then ask Ragnar to help find materials from the muggle world that can make the same thing.

And to be completely honest, it was really hard. He had to read so many books about brains, medicine, magic and whatnot. Thankfully, Merlin was very helpful. He would tell and teach him the secrets about the human mind.

This year, he did not participate in the Quidditch, yet, the Slytherin team won the house cup. They proved themselves to Magnus, that they were worth something even without him.

Emma, who was the captain, deserved a gift this time, so Magnus organised a party in Slytherin House again. Complete with food, music and dancing. Older and much more mature now, Magnus danced with Emma as well. Not the romantic kind, but the fun kind.

"Man, I pity the other houses. They can't have this much fun ever." Ragnar laughed.

"Don't say that Rag, look at Severus, he's missing Lily," Magnus said, targeting the brooding Severus. Eventually, they had to drag him to dance.

Later, they found out why Severus was brooding. It turns out, he wants to buy a new house, but, he didn't want to leave Lily either.

"You fool, just build a new bigger house right there, one with all kinds of safety mechanisms. Why move away? Heck, even build Lily a new house while at it." Magnus suggested.

"The government won't give permission," Severus said, after all, the land around his house was public land.

Ragnar blurted, "Fuck the government. Mag here is the boss, he will get you the permissions. Isn't that whole area like a ghost town already? Mag, why not turn that place into a posh locality with expensive homes?"

Magnus shrugged, "Sure, I don't mind. A lot of wizards live there anyway, their lives will become better with that."

"MAGNUS! Can I get a Television? I saw its advertisement in the papers." A 7th-year girl excitedly asked him.

Magnus nodded, "Sure, in fact, every single kid and teacher in the school will get a television unit for free. There will also be television sets fitted in each of the 4 house's common rooms."

~Hah, let me brainwash you into a more civilised society, you fools.~ Magnus was having his evil mastermind moment in his head.

...

Ragnar left for Syria to participate in the eighty-second Wizarding Schools Potions Championship. Severus didn't go, saying Ragnar was going so it was pointless. With Ragnar also went Professor Slughorn, since he wanted to brag about his best student ever, Ragnar, to the entire wizarding potioneering community.

During the competition, Ragnar was too bullish, making potions in each round that would give the judges orgasms of satisfaction. They start singing the praises of Ragnar. Slughorn would every time feel that he made the right decision by becoming a professor at Hogwarts.

"Fufufu... you can't win." Ragnar proclaimed in the final competition, against him and a Syrian wizard student. The potion they needed to make was Liquid Luck. And, due to Magnus' greed, Ragnar had already mastered it.

The end result was, Ragnar won. He received the grand prize of measly 5000 galleons, a certificate, a gold medal and membership of the highest tier in the World Potioneer Guild.

A week later, he was proudly welcomed into Hogwarts and praised by Dumbledore at dinner. Dumbledore was genuinely happy, as he saw Hogwarts be the best in so many things. Heck, Magnus won them the World Cup.

~Are we seeing the new Golden Age of Hogwarts? I hope Magnus' siblings are just as extraordinary.~ Dumbledore hoped.

...

During this time, in the muggle world, after the huge Nestle scandal and the bullish way its market cap was brought down to just 6 Million dollars, with the majority of its factories and plants closed, the company filed for bankruptcy.

The CEO of the company and all its management even came forward and publicly apologised, yet the protest against them around the world did not stop. Then, the company CEO made a foolish statement at a US congressional hearing, saying the company did not have the responsibility of how the people consume their products. That it did not matter to them if people add dirty water to their baby formula.

Well, hell broke loose then. The CEO ran away, back to live in his ranch in Switzerland. Magnus made sure to fuel lawsuits against that as well, on the basis that this property was bought with slave labour money.

After being constantly hounded by Magnus, MEDA, Tonks & Tonks. They finally decided to sell. Magnus's spokesperson proudly announced that they will buy the company, delist it and let it become history. On top of that, they also gave all the money Tonks & Tonks got for out of the court settlements to various Jewish and Human Rights organisations.

In the end, they came out as saints, while also entering the food and beverage business. Kitkat was owned by Magnus now. And the first person to eat the new batch was Emma.

...

Great Hall, Hogwarts

"So, how is it? This is the first batch of chocolates made by real workers, not slaves. It also has some health supplements." Magnus asked her.

She was just eating them happily, "Well, it's pretty tasty."

"What are you doing? Ah, Kitkat? I like these. You used my formula, right?" Ragnar quickly took one and ate a big chunk.

Magnus stood up in shock and disgust, "YOU HEATHEN! How can you eat a Kitkat like that? God, look how you butchered this chocolate. NO! You eat it one small bar at a time, not with a big bite in the middle."

Ragnar shrugged, "Whatever, it's just chocolate. Anyway, I just found a new material that might help you in making that depression medicine."

Magnus hugged him, "Really? You're the best, Rag. Here, eat more Kitkats like a heathen, I won't mind."

"YOU HAVE DEPRESSION?!" Emma exclaimed.

Magnus annoyedly put his hand on her mouth, "Calm down, it's for the muggle world, my new invention, not for me."

"Ragnar, with this, I can complete my medicine development. We need to find people to test it on. Hmm... what about the Gryffindor four?" Magnus suggested.

Ragnar looked at them, "Umm... Nah, you need a brain first to be depressed."

*Sigh* "True, so... maybe I can find someone in Azkaban... OH, what about our prisoner?" Magnus inquired.

Ragnar's face lit up, "Hehe, how did we forget him? He's the best guinea pig possible. If the medicine works and he becomes cheerful again, I will have fun breaking him. If it does not work, no harm is done."

"Let's go after dinner." Magnus and Ragnar planned. Rodolphus Lestrange was still alive and facing every torture known to mankind for the past 8 months. The man was healed to the best condition every week only to be broken again.

And it was working, slowly Ragnar was growing bored of him. The day Ragnar decides to let him die will be the day he truly lets the past go.

...

In the Muggle World,

To bring the image of the Royal family to greater heights. Magnus ordered for a new organisation to be made. It was named "Royal Administration for Food Safety, in short RAFFS." Its main purpose was to check every single consumable item entering the British market for health hazards. The tests will be done by both muggles and wizards. Anything hazardous would be kept away.

All the research was also publicly published in papers for all to see. Magnus's new company, Royal Delight, was the one that took over all the products, operations and assets of Nestle. They rebranded everything, changed the Baby Formulas, water bottles truly started to get water from the mountains, and cocoa harvesting didn't use slave labour anymore.

The new RAFFS report revealed that this time the new Baby formula is truly safe and good for children. Yet, on the box, it was written in big warning to only use clean water and that nothing can ever replace Mother's Milk, so only use Baby Formula if you can not give Mother's milk.

At the same time, Magnus made sure to grill WHO with lawsuits and public relations disasters. Magnus' company openly scolded WHO for not taking any action. This was like the old Ciggerate commercial disaster again, where smoking cigarettes was shown as good for health.

WHO apologised and promised to work better this time. And guess what, a lot of food and beverages companies doing illegal stuff became good by quickly stopping their evil ways.

This was exactly what Magnus wanted.
