“Potters and their egos,” Severus sneered.
“You would be wrong in this, as the term Overlord was unknown to Lord Potter, and given to him by magic when the Lords under his command freely swore allegiance and fidelity to him. From the papers I found, they never told him, but under the ICW it allowed Lord Potter to be responsible for them, they couldn’t be judged by anyone but him, while he was protected by what No-Majs call ‘Diplomatic Immunity’, he had the rank of a King among the community he created and as such could only be judged by his people and by Lady Magic.”
“Why keep it a secret though?” Severus asked intrigued.
“Because Harry would have said ‘No’,” Clint told him and everyone turned to look at him. “He didn’t want them to do the ritual because it would kill them all, or at least some, he didn’t want Luna to go out to give them more time, the journal said he didn’t want to kill the Dark Lord when he came back, Harry doesn’t seem like someone who would want the attention or the power, unless it can be used to protect people. He was given his test results at 18, died at 27, but I don’t remember reading that Ginevra was in jail, only that he didn’t marry her.”
“She should have been sent to Azkaban,” Severus mumbled grumpily.
“The names of the Lords and Ladies under his fellowship is long. Lady Susan Bones, Lady Daphne Greengrass, Lady Natasha Yaxley,” Ragnok started but Clint interrupted him.
“That’s you, Tasha.”
“Yes, I noticed,” She said rolling her eyes at him. “Don’t interrupt, I would like to know who I am going to work with.”
“Lady Luna Lovegood, Lady Lavender Brown, Lady Fleur Delacour of the Veela Court, Lord Neville Longbottom, Lord Kingsley Shacklebot, Lord Darco Malfoy, Lord Blaise Zabini, Lord Twins Frederick and George Prewett, Lord Presumptive House of Weasley, William Prewett, Lord Anthony Stark, Lord Victor Krum, King of Jothuneim, Prince of Asgard Loki Friggason, King of Asgard Thor Odinson, other swore to him with no titles, or of creature status with no ties to a Lordship, such as Vampires, Werewolves, Centaurs, and of course us Goblins,” Ragnok told them.
“Thor and Loki? As in the two who destroyed a small city in New Mexico not 2 months ago? Those two Asgardian lunatics?” Phil asked.
“Well, Thor did say he was a prince, and he thought Daddy Odin was dead, which makes him a king I guess,” Clint told him.
“Are you talking about the Norse Gods?” Severus asked.
“Yes, turns out, they are real, and live on another planet,” Tony told them.
“I think I passed the limit of incredulity a while ago because I don’t even find this strange anymore,” Sirius said softly but Remus noticed Severus nodding along on his other side.
“‘oki?” Harry asked from his playpen, still holding the cubes for Luna to build strange things, Remus didn’t even know how they stayed up, but he was suspecting a nice little trick from her big brother.
“He is not here right now, cub.”
“‘kay, he coming,” Harry told them with a shrug and went back to his play.
“That doesn’t sound very reassuring,” Phil said and Remus recognized the look on his face, that ‘I want to smash my head on the table but I don’t want to look whiny and immature’ look, he had seen it often in the mirror when Sirius and James were planning a new prank while taking a shower in the morning.
“P’ongs’e’ p’o’ec, Fi fine,” Harry told him with so much conviction everyone was forced to believe him, though they knew they wouldn’t let Harry do anything if Loki was to come, after all, Clint and Phill just said they destroyed a city before.
“I feel like he just said you’re going to die soon,” Clint said and couldn’t help but shudder.
“How did you come to that conclusion?” Phil asked him.
“He never met you in his future life, only heard stories we told him, or so, he said, and just now he didn’t say he would protect all of us, just you,” Clint explained, looking extremely sad which Harry solved by apparating onto his lap, and burying himself into a hug.
“Let’s hope, we can help change that,” Sirius said with a quick side hug to Phil, “you didn’t have us the first time, and maybe there is something in the journal to keep you safe.”
“But at what cost?” Phil asked.
“We’ll see about that, but if Harry insists on protecting you, I guess not much,” Clint told him. “He doesn’t seem like someone who would sacrifice people to save one person, no matter how important they are, but especially since he’s only known you for 3 days.”
“Fine, we’ll study the journal,” Phil agreed.
