Harry Potter: Lucius's Origin System

From Hogwarts through the rest of his life after the war + True love with Narcissa + Slow burn + System with little presence + Pure-blood undercurrents

This System appeared out of nowhere. Was it completely useless?

Lucius Malfoy: I'll decide for myself.

Magic is changing, portraits are on the move, and prophecies are coming true. He is where it all began.

He made countless choices throughout his life: about family, blood status, and a System that never activated but still changed the world.

When it came to his most consequential choice, he chose an answer no one could have anticipated.

Severus Snape: With a handsome face and all the right tricks, Lucius Malfoy has always been more difficult to deal with than others think.

Tom Riddle: Lucius Malfoy... His elegance is never weakness. Beneath that aristocratic air lies an ambition I find utterly appealing.

Narcissa Malfoy: My Lucius may have the sharpest of edges, but he softens them only for me and our family.

Voldemort: The blond Malfoy boy is handsome and knows how to read a room. He knows how to attach himself to the powerful and hide his claws. He's quite interesting.

Draco Malfoy: He's a Malfoy, my father, and the person I've always wanted to become, yet can never catch up to.

Harry Potter: He seems arrogant and cold, but there's far more going on behind those eyes than I ever imagined.
