Chapter 270 : Lost Past

[Orion POV]

One problem after another, things are just more troublesome the more I look into this world. Sometimes I wonder if not getting any special power or help from Merlin would have been better, just a simple innocent student in Hogwarts, wouldn't have been that bad either. 

Sigh. 

I sat and watched the wand ceremony taking place, wasn't interested in this pointless ceremony personally so I didn't care what they were doing.

One after another the name was called, from Rose to that white hair girl Morgan, they all went up in the stage to show their wands. 

Soon it was my turn. I saw Olivander, who else would be performing this ceremony, reading the next name in the list but then he didn't call it out directly. 

I slowly turned my eyes to where Dumbledore was and saw him keenly watching Olivander. I am sure that they have done some talking before coming here. 

"Orion D. Ambrosius, please come here and show your wand," Olivander said. 

Knew it, I just did what he told me. Just wanted to be done with it.

[POV END]

Orion stood at the entrance of Hogwarts, it finally was the time to get out of Hogwarts and take action.

He had made up his mind. After the revelation of his true name and lineage, he needed to find answers about his origins. The first place to start was of course the orphanage where he was raised.

It had been 8 years since he had stepped into the modern world of Muggles, 13 years for him as 6 years in the time chamber. The thought of leaving the magical world was daunting but necessary. He can't help but think how much he has changed, there used to be a time when he couldn't wait for more modern works to appear, the internet, social media, and gods he wanted all those things back so back, but now it just seemed like a long dream to him. 

He took a deep breath and stepped out, he long wanted to go and visit the muggle world and finally, the time came.

He after making sure that no one was around just vanished from his place, appearing all the way to the muggle world outside the entrance of Diagon's Alley.

Let's start...

Adjusting to the Muggle world was harder than he expected, and believing this for him who used to be swear by the supremacy of the modern world, it was even harder.

The hustle and bustle of the city, the noise, and the technology all felt foreign to him, maybe even a city boy like him can change when someone lives 13 years away from this kind of place. 

Though he was out here for some reason but before that he decided to look around a little. 

"Maybe I should have bought both Rose and Daphne. They surely would have liked a little touch of modern life."

A little smile appeared on his face when he saw a nineteens game parlour. "A little playing around wouldn't cost I guess." Orion smiled as he diverted from the path and wasted some time in the gaming parlour. 

Even in the Fate world, the world was very similar to this as that place was also it was only 1994. 

And he honestly didn't get enough time to place around either.

After playing around a little, he finally found his way to the location of his old orphanage. But what he saw shocked him.

"This...

The building was a charred ruin, its structure barely standing. The place where he had spent his early years was now a desolate, burned-out shell.

'What happened ?... 

"Mr and Mrs Lawrence ?" Orion remembers the people who raised him, though they weren't nice people he by no means wanted them to die. 

'What the hell happened.'

Orion stood there, staring at the remains, feeling a mix of sadness and confusion. How could this have happened? He needed to know more. He began asking around, talking to locals who lived nearby. It took some time, but he eventually found an elderly woman who remembered the orphanage.

"Excuse me, ma'am," Orion approached her politely. "Do you know what happened to this orphanage?"

The woman looked at him with a mix of curiosity and pity. "It was a terrible thing," she said, shaking her head. "Nine years ago, there was a fire. The whole building went up in flames. They never figured out what caused it. Some say it was arson, others think it was an accident. But it was a tragedy, nonetheless."

Orion's heart sank. "Were there any survivors?"

"None." said the woman as she shook her head and frowned.

"I see." 

Orion nodded, thanking the woman for her help. He looked back at the ruins of the orphanage, feeling a deep sense of wrong, he really didn't want them to die, they were bad to him but this...

His one link to his past was now gone, and with it, the people who might have known the truth about his origins.

"No, since when things have been so easy around me. Don't take info at face value, I personally have to see the ruins. Maybe then I might find something ?"

Determined not to give up, Orion decided to follow his plan. He teleported inside the ruin, ready to search around. Trying to find any clues about what happened here. 

The possibility that what happened here was for natural reasons was high but what if it's not ?

As he walked away from the orphanage, his mind was filled with questions. After spending fire hours looking at ever expect of the place there was only one thing he found.

"I'll Eradicate those Vampires...
