Malfoy Rise at Hogwarts

Chapter 390 World Prophecy
Hogwarts Castle, Trelawney Office.

Sybill Trelawney no longer had her mysterious image of the past. Her neatly combed hair was piled high, and her eyes sparkled with shrewdness and sharpness behind her big round glasses.

As nearly a year passed, she had gradually mastered and become familiar with the divination skills hidden in her blood - a mysterious power called "Third Eye", which allowed her to regain confidence in life. She even had a premonition of Xie Lin's visit today and had already prepared for it.

Shaylin had just sat down at her desk, and before he had even adjusted his sitting position, Trelawney suddenly leaned forward, staring at Shaylin's eyes with bright eyes, and kept muttering, "How could this be... Impossible... Impossible..."

"Professor, it's been a long time since we last met. Why do you look so nervous when you see me?" When Shalling saw Trelawney's expression, he couldn't help but laugh.

Trelawney sat back down, gently massaging his temples with his index fingers, and let out a long breath.

"My third eye tells me that Hogwarts will soon be invaded by the enemy Eagle Wolf, and this enemy originally had a close relationship with me, but fate seems to have been affected by some mysterious force, and its trajectory has been forcibly changed..." Trelawney narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Although I can't tell why, I always have an inexplicable feeling that this matter is related to you..."

Xie Ling smiled calmly and said, "I'm not a prophet, so how can I know?"

Xie Ling crossed his fingers on the table and said calmly, "Even if this is true, some of the many arrangements I made in the past year really affected the destiny of Hogwarts, so what? Professor, you should know me. I formed an alliance with you because I value your ability to judge people and read their expressions. You don't think I will do anything bad to you, do you?"

"Of course not. In fact, this change will only benefit me. The enemy who might have harmed me seems to have shifted his target..." Trelawney said.

"Then what are you worried about?" Xie Ling asked puzzledly.

"You don't understand," Trelawney shook his head in distress. "It's not that I went looking for fate, but fate found me. Those mysterious and incomprehensible images have been appearing frequently in my mind, making it difficult for me to concentrate in class and unable to sleep peacefully."

"So, is there anything I can do to help, Professor?" Sherin asked, raising his eyebrows.

"I don't think so," Trelawney sighed and said slowly, "I originally thought that when I met you, I should be able to solve the mysteries that have troubled me for a long time. It seems that I still overestimated my ability-"

"Mr. Malfoy..." Trelawney's eyes flashed with a strange mixture of curiosity and expectation. "You know, fate is actually a magical force beyond magic. Even the most powerful wizard cannot avoid being tainted by fate. But - I can't see even the slightest trace of fate in you..."

"You seem to have a very high-level mysterious power that has concealed the mark of your destiny, making it impossible for me to see through it. Have you..." At this point, Trelawney's low voice began to tremble slightly, "Have you taken the legendary step?"

"Well, actually I don't quite understand what you mean," Xie Lin said in a deep voice: "My magic power is already very strong. Under special circumstances, I can have magic power comparable to that of a great magician for a short period of time. I wonder if this counts?"

Trelawney shook his head and said, "It's not entirely related to magic. Dumbledore and the Dark Lord are both great wizards, but I can still glimpse a little bit of the trajectory of their fate, although it is very difficult - when the magic cultivation reaches their level, they already have some power to control their own destiny. Although in my opinion, this will only be in vain, and they can't really escape the shackles of fate completely..."

"But you are different," Trelawney took a deep breath and said firmly, "Your power is not stronger than Dumbledore's, but my third eye has no effect on you. This is obviously not a problem of the total amount of magic power, but my third eye has encountered a higher level of power. Can you tell me where this magical power in you comes from?" She paused for a while, then said with a burning look in her eyes, "Have you cut off the shackles of fate?"

Xie Ling shrugged and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, I really don't know anything about what you are talking about."

In fact, Xie Lin secretly had a guess in his heart. When he experienced the third magic riot, he broke through the limitations of this world and met a being who called himself "fate" at the border of the dimension. It was at that time that he felt the indescribable power of fate. It was also since he accepted the gift from "fate" that he had an inexplicable aura. He really felt like he had broken free from the shackles and was suddenly enlightened, as if everything was under his control.

Of course, he couldn't tell anyone about this kind of thing, not even Daphne and the others whom he trusted the most, let alone Trelawney who was just an ally.

"Oh," Trelawney sighed in disappointment, then cheered up and asked, "Forget it, you came to me today because you need me to tell fortunes for you, right?"

Trelawney and Shalling had once agreed that Trelawney would tell fortunes for Shalling ten times, and before today Shalling had already used up two chances, the first one was to tell the whereabouts of the missing members of the Puddlemere United, and the second one was to tell the situation of the abducted Meredith.

"That's right," Xie Ling's expression suddenly became very serious, and he whispered, "I want you to--"

"Fortune teller the future of this world!"

------------

In Knockturn Alley, underneath an unremarkable vacant shop that looks and is located inconspicuously, there is a secret underground room that is never seen and is unknown to anyone.

Compared to Diagon Alley, Knockturn Alley didn't have as many people moving around, but it wasn't too few either. Every day, at least a dozen people hurried past this vacant shop, but the strange thing was that no one ever even glanced at the shop.

No one in the entire European and even global wizarding world knew that the person hiding in this secret room was the real culprit behind the chaos that had dominated the European and American wizarding world for hundreds of years.

The Knights of Walpurgis, the true leader—

One of the four great wizards of ancient Greece, the first snake tonguer in history, the inventor of the Horcrux——

Despicable Herbo.

With a low crackling sound, four wizards in black cloaks appeared in the empty shop.

As everyone took off their hoods, the identities of several people were revealed - "Dark Lord" Voldemort, "Devil Queen" Morgan Le Fay, "Pirate King" Barbarossa, and a slightly unfamiliar face, who was actually the notorious "Arch Black Wizard" Jafar Yahya in the Middle East.

Any one of these four people would be the kind of person who could cause the earth to shake if they stomped their feet if they appeared in any corner of the earth. But now they were gathered together in an empty shop that was so dilapidated that there was no place to sit.

Judging from the positions in which the four men were standing, Jafar was vaguely the leader.

Jafar, the leader, whispered, "This is it. The master is down there. Let's go down - hiss... Sassafras..." (Voldemort translated for readers: Open it, the serpent in the night, Tiphon)

The figures of several people then disappeared in the store.
