HP: I Have "Pure" Magic

Chapter 67:

AN.: I found some good names in the comments, and it was very difficult to choose. So I just chose some with most recommendations.

What name should I give her? I had been thinking of a few names, but I asked Dora first. She's been living in this fantasy world since her birth. She should have picked up a few good names, right?

Dora thought about the matter seriously for a moment and I waited. But then she just shrugged.

"No idea."

"...."

Well, it's better than her suggesting something outrageous out of spite *cough* *cough*

Looks like I'll have to do it myself. I just want her name to be something that she doesn't feel embarrassed about.

I looked at the baby dragon and tickled it with one finger, "Alright, little one. I'm going to name you. If you like it, then spread your wings to let me know."

"Hmmm... let's see. You're

Astrid seems like a good name. meaning 'very beautiful'.

"Astrid?"

It had a lukewarm reactions to this.

Well, not something I can call a baby with. I can't make a pet name out of it. 'Ast' 'stri' 'trid' can't be called pet name.

A good one would be 'Tia' from Tiamat. After a dragon Goddess.

"Tiamat?" I asked hopefully.

I turned it's head away.

Well, it go a bit along the lines with Nymphadora in the sense that the child would be embarrassed even though the name is good.

Now I understand the difficulty of Dora's parents.

I looked at the baby dragon closely. It's black scales twinkled with rainbow light...just like the starts in the night sky.

So, how about...Nyx! After the goddess of night. Short and meaningful. I like it!

It seems I'm on fire tonight. One great name after another. Though I have a feeling that I'm somehow stealing these names from somewhere....

Anyway, who cares? In this world, no one can even sue me of plagiarism.

So,

"Nyx?" I called out with all the hope.

"mew?"

The dragon seemed to be hesitating.

"It means the Goddess of night." I told her. Even though she won't understand much.

So, I took her to the window and showed her the night sky.

*Sha!*

The she let out a cute exclamation as she looked into the beautiful night sky with her curious eyes.

"Do you like it?"

The night sky from Hogwarts looked really beautiful. There's no pollution here.

"Alright! It's decided. You're name is Nyx or Nyxie from now on." I said as I gently stroked it's head with my finger.

"Dora, do you know what would've happened if I had just given it to the dragon handlers as soon I found her in the room of lost things like you were criticized me of not doing?"

"Well, don't they give a sanctuary to live there and take care of them? But I guess her case would be a bit special."

"Pfft!" I almost laughed.

"Looks like Ted never told you. You are truly daddy's Princess."

"Hey, no need to beat around the bush. By your reaction I can already guess that it's not what it looks like. Just tell me how bad is it?

"Alright, do you know what's the wand core that most pureblood familis wizards use?"

".... It's dragon heartstring, isn't it?"

"What's the best battle robes made of?"

"....."

"And the best boots? Or the best wand holsters for that matter? Yes. It's dragon hide."

"Do you know, what the most famous dishes are make of? Dragon meat!"

"These are just the famous things. But let me tell you. Those are not even the most expensive parts of a dragon's body. But of course, those things are monopolized by the purebloods."

"And...let me tell you, even though these 'sanctuaries' are under the regulations of the ministry, but guess who funds them? Purebloods!"

"And, don't be under any false assumption that only that dragons who die naturally are used for this. Dragons have long lifespans. And let me assure you, the demand is overwhelmingly more than the supply."

"The Truth is, those sanctuaries, where the famed dragon handlers work, are nothing but slaughter houses, where the dragons are breed like lifestalk, and then-" I drew my thumb across my neck.

Well it the truth. Though I don't particularly care. But I just know that Dora actually would. Seeing the adorable creature nuzzling on my shoulder, then thinking about the slaughtering, she'd realize just what kind of dream job her friend Charlie Weasley always wanted to get.

In actual truth, dragons are the kind of creatures that can't be tamed by the wizards. So, if one actually flies up to a random muggle or wizard settlement, the ministry is always responsible. So, it's not just all black, the sanctuaries.

I just never miss any chance do I?

The next morning, I woke up at 5:30 am. My new familiar, Nyxie, was curled up on my chest, purring cutely in her sleep.

By the way, I tried feeding it chicken blood with brandy like Hagrid. But it didn't eat much. Like every hour. That's just Hagrid's dragon trying to fulfil it's lack of magic energy through overeating.

So, yesterday night, I charged a gold ingot with pure magic for her to absorb magic from it.

"Alright, let's start." I gentle shifted Nyxie from by chest to the bed and got up.

It's finally the time for checking out my upgrades!

A.N.: Any good ideas?

Not asking for anything today. Though I won't decline if you give it....
