Returning to Hogwarts for my sixth year, I immediately focused on advancing my combat style. My primary goal was to fully master Wordless magic — the kind of spellcasting that required no incantation, no wand movement, only sheer concentration and intent. Over the course of the year, I pushed myself harder than ever. I could cast complex spells silently and invisibly, combining them mid-air, redirecting them, and even masking their magical signature to avoid detection.
I also devoted considerable time to refining my Black Magic. My dark magic talent had grown immensely over the years, and now I could weave curses, hexes, and rituals with unparalleled precision. My experiments in the Room of Requirement allowed me to test new spells, refine them, and integrate them seamlessly with my Wordless casting.
Teachers still adored me. I maintained perfect grades, collected house points effortlessly, and continued to dominate in magical dueling, potions, and transfiguration. Yet, I noticed something unusual — Dumbledore was absent more often than ever. Rumors circulated that he was dealing with the rising threat of Grindelwald, and I assumed the fight was becoming increasingly intense. According to what I knew of history, the coming year would see their legendary confrontation that reshaped the fate of the wizarding world.
Aside from Dumbledore's absences, Hogwarts remained relatively peaceful. I continued training my Death Eaters, experimenting with new spells, and improving my magical reserves. This year was more about mastery and refinement than new acquisitions. I pushed my Wordless magic to its peak, ensuring that any opponent — no matter their power — would struggle to anticipate my attacks.
By the end of the year, I returned home, feeling stronger and more prepared than ever. As I arrived at my manor, the system chimed:
Ding — Host has completed sixth year of Hogwarts. Reward: Ownership of the Sword of Gryffindor.
I felt the familiar hum of the legendary sword as it recognized me. Holding it in my hand, I could sense its power, its history, and its will to serve its rightful master. With this in my possession, I was not just a wizard; I was a force capable of shaping destiny.
