I, Hogwarts Week Two

The moment Ginny finished speaking.

Harry glanced out the window and saw a familiar figure.

The man was wearing a black robe and standing quietly in front of the ruins of his home.

The silver hair sticking out from his neck proved that this man was extraordinary.

He was all too familiar with this.

Harry immediately got up from the ground.

Then he saw a curse coming straight towards him from afar.

"Bang!" The spell hit the house, and a crisp sound like broken glass was heard. It should be the protective spell left by Grindelwald that was broken.

Next, the spell continued to gain momentum.

The window in front of the two people was blown to pieces.

"Run Harry," Ginny yelled.

They don't have the strength to fight Voldemort now.

She was really worried that Harry would rush over in anger because of what had just happened.

But Harry was actually more stable than she thought, especially after Dumbledore's death.

He would leave, but not now.

He had to inform Grindelwald.

Just as he turned around and was about to go to the second floor, a tall and old figure appeared in front of him.

"Okay, you two get out of here." Grindelwald said coldly.

He had never expected Voldemort to be here at this moment.

Judging from the information he had obtained, Voldemort's attention should be focused on Paris at this moment.

How come you suddenly come here?

He was a little careless, because Harry's arrival reminded him of two young men of similar age.

He was too tired.

There was no rest for a long time.

Just dealt with a group of Death Eaters today.

Normally, that group of people had been wandering around Godric's Hollow for six or seven days, and even if they suddenly disappeared for a day or two, it would not attract the attention of the Death Eaters. This is why he left Harry and Ginny behind.

Tonight will also be a peaceful night.

He was sleeping so soundly that he didn't expect anything to happen.

"Hmph, you want to leave?" As he spoke, Voldemort had already appeared in front of the door.

His sinister eyes were filled with murderous intent as he glanced at everyone without restraint.

"Just stay."

After saying that, he raised his wand and fired a spell.

The green light let out a sharp scream and drove towards Grindelwald and others.

At the critical moment, Grindelwald protected Harry and Ginny behind him.

He used force field magic to deflect the killing curse.

Voldemort, who had cast the Killing Curse, disappeared instantly, and the next second he appeared behind Harry and the others.

Harry felt a chill run down his spine.

He turned around in astonishment, and before he could straighten his head, he caught a glimpse of the gray-white spell that was shot at him. The next second, the scene in front of his eyes changed instantly. When it stabilized again, they were already several blocks away.

"Stop being stubborn and go away," Grindelwald urged.

"Yes Harry, we are just a burden here." Ginny also said anxiously.

"Remember, you must continue to practice Occlumency. Although you have mastered Occlumency quite well now, that is only against the Legilimency spell of ordinary people. Voldemort's strength is not stagnant. He is getting stronger and stronger. Your current level of Occlumency can no longer withstand him." Grindelwald said quickly.

A pair of heterochromatic eyes stared at Harry and Ginny.

"Tell Owen for me."

"Tell him that this path is my own choice and ask him not to blame anyone else."

Grindelwald said finally.

Then he pushed Harry and Ginny away and Apparated away.

Harry held out his hand and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but it was too late.

Ginny had already pulled out her Portkey and activated it.

The next second, Harry felt as if a hook had hooked his belly button, and with a hard pull, his entire body was stuffed into some kind of pipe.

The world was spinning. After more than ten seconds of long space pulling.

He and Ginny fell into a wood.

"Huh—" Ginny got up from the ground and shivered. There seemed to be a lake around her, and the temperature here was much colder than other places.

She was not too sure about the exact location of the portkey, which Hermione had given him. Dobby had chosen the location.

Only elves can wander around outside in a blatant manner without attracting attention.

As soon as she recovered from the dizziness, Ginny took out another portkey.

She first cast a spell to destroy the previous portkey.

Then he urged the next one.

After disappearing again.

After doing this three times, she finally stopped.

Apparition would leave traces, although they were very subtle magical traces that could only be detected by legendary wizards like Dumbledore. But they were facing Voldemort, and Ginny couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't chase them. She could only use all the portkeys in her pocket to escape.

"call--"

The two men collapsed on a pile of dry leaves.

Fell asleep.

Both Harry and Ginny have suffered a lot, and the only reason they can hold on until now is because of their strong willpower.

The door key just now shattered their last bit of mental strength.

The extreme fatigue even made their heads feel like they were being pricked by needles.

Fainting is the brain's emergency protective measure.

------

I don’t know how much time has passed.

The sun rises, sets, and then brightens again.

Harry had many strange dreams. In his dreams, he saw Grindelwald and Ginny being captured by Voldemort, and the monster brutally killed them with crazy laughter.

He screamed desperately, but the monster remained indifferent, and finally Voldemort killed himself in the same way.

"Harry, it's okay, wake up, wake up!"

Harry slowly opened his eyes.

"Harry," said Ginny quickly, "are you feeling—okay?"

"Not bad." He didn't tell the truth.

He was in the tent, lying on a lower bunk under a pile of blankets. He could tell from the silence and the cold light on the canvas roof that day was breaking. He was soaked with sweat, which could be felt on the sheets and blankets.

"We escaped."

"Yes," said Ginny, "I woke up yesterday evening and set up this tent."

"Another person lost his life because of me." Harry said uncomfortably, "I am such a coward."

"No——" Ginny walked forward, holding his cheek with one hand, with tears in her eyes, and said seriously: "You are not a coward Harry. No one is braver than you. How old are you!"

"Mr. Gellert is in great danger." Harry propped himself up on the bed with both hands and tried to sit up. "We must notify—"

"Ah——" he let out a scream.

The sudden pain in his brain caught him off guard.

"Don't move." Ginny said with a heartache: "The You-Know-Who possessing you must have taken a toll on your spirit. You need to rest."

"Don't worry I've already spread the word."

"Thank you, Ginny." Harry lay back down. "I don't know how to thank you. You saved me."

"Don't say that," Ginny said. "I'd love to do that."

She pulled out a towel and wiped the sweat off Harry's forehead.

"We will defeat You-Know-Who. We will."

"Yeah!" Harry nodded insincerely.

He had no confidence in it at all.

And I am becoming less and less confident.

"Get some more sleep, it's still dark," Ginny said, staying by his side.

Harry couldn't fight the weariness that was coming from deeper within his brain.

After relaxing, I fell asleep quickly.

----

The sun was rising, and the pure, colorless, vast sky hung overhead, indifferent to his pain. Harry sat down at the entrance of the tent and took a deep breath of the clear air.

Being able to live and watch the sun rise over the sparkling, snow-capped hillsides must be the greatest treasure in the world.

However, he had no mood to appreciate it, his senses were damaged by the possible death of Grindelwald. He didn't know how to tell Owen this news.

"call--"

Harry looked out over the snow-covered valley, the sound of church bells in the distance piercing the glittering silence. Unconsciously, he dug his fingers into his arm, as if to resist the intense pain. He had bled countless times; once he had lost all the bones in his right arm; sometimes he wished he was the one dying, and if he could use his life to kill Voldemort, he would not hesitate.

He no longer wanted anyone to die.

"Where should we go now?" Ginny came over from the tent behind him, holding two cups of tea.

"Back to Hogsmeade." Harry opened a cup.

"Go and join Hermione."

"Okay—" Ginny nodded in agreement.

On the other side, Hogsmeade village.

Weasley's Alchemy Workshop.

This place became a temporary base for the DA army.

Mainly because it's big enough.

The front store has been abandoned. The cabinets that were once filled with magic gadgets are now empty, giving people a strong sense of desolation.

After entering the counter, use the magic wand to tap the counter in a certain pattern to open an underground staircase leading to the alchemy workshop in the back of the store.

George and Fred once assembled war mechas here. The space is not small and with a little modification it can accommodate hundreds of people.

"No news from Owen yet?"

In the workshop, seven or eight elves are busy.

Fred and George are creating some kind of battle puppet.

Compared with previous war mechas, this puppet, which is only one-third the size of a mecha, is more practical.

They have produced dozens of them.

"No Hermione!" said Fred, taking off his goggles from his head. "That's the third time you've asked that today."

"He's been missing for a month."

"He often disappeared for months at a time," George began.

Then he felt that his words were not very safe, and said quickly: "Oh - you know, he will be fine."

Hearing this, Hermione frowned and didn't continue to dwell on this topic.

"Where are Ron and Harry? Are they back?"

"Ron has come back a long time ago. He wouldn't turn around and follow Koyatel to the United States again." George said. "I heard that Koyatel's uncle is alone in the United States and has been secretly looking for her."

"As for Harry." Fred climbed over the iron frame for assembling magic puppets and landed next to Hermione. "Ginny has been sending back news these days. They have entered Godric's Hollow and will probably be back soon."

"Hurry up, I have a feeling that something big is going to happen soon."

"Big deal? What big deal?" Fred asked.

At this time, Neville and Seamus emerged from a secret passage under the alchemy workshop.

"Hey, you guys are all here!" Seamus quickly walked up the stairs and came to the platform where Hermione and the twins were.

"The You-Know-Who has recently added some additional personnel to Hogwarts."

"Now everyone in the castle is in a panic. Even the Slytherin students have realized that the mysterious man has gone crazy."

"The castle is full of Death Eaters. They use Legilimency and Cruciatus Curse recklessly. It seems they are looking for something." Neville continued.

"Looking for something?" The twins were stunned. "Is there a secret room in the castle that we don't know about?"

"The castle has many secrets." Hermione rolled her eyes at the twins.

She suddenly thought of Merlin's Chamber deep in the castle.

She was sure that the Death Eaters were looking for Merlin's Chamber of Secrets.

"Any more news?" she asked again.

"And..." Neville thought about it carefully, "The eight-eyed giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest are ready to move. Some people have seen a few of them on the edge of the forest. You know, they would not appear outside the forest."

"Also, I heard from my parents—I wasn't eavesdropping, I just heard it by accident—they said that several wand-making masters had died in Europe. The most famous one seemed to be named Gregorovitch. He seemed to be a wand-making master as famous as Ollivander."

"Gregorovitch?" Hermione muttered a few words. She was very familiar with the name, and she knew that Voldemort was looking for Gregorovitch for the Elder Wand.

Could it be that Voldemort already had news of the Elder Wand?

"The vampires in Northern Europe are also beginning to act recklessly." Ernie's voice came from the secret passage.

Then he climbed out with Hannah and Justin.

"Our DA members in Paris have received word that an attack has occurred on the Rosier Hospital for Magical Injuries."

"Are there any casualties?" Hermione immediately became nervous. Rosier Hospital for Magical Injuries and Disabilities was established by Owen and the Rosier family behind him. There might be relatives of his in the hospital.

"Yes--" Hannah said, "but they are not medical staff. The main casualties are French Aurors and goblins."

"Fairy?" Hermione was stunned. She knew Aurors. The French Ministry of Magic had sent a group of Aurors to guard the hospital. They would naturally be the first to rush to the front line when attacked. It was normal for there to be casualties.

But goblins?

In recent times, the Fairy Kingdom has indeed been fully cooperating with Rosier Hospital to cure its curse.

Could it be that the goblins suddenly had a change of heart and bravely resisted the attack?

"What value do goblins have? When a war breaks out, they just retreat into their caves." Fred said with disdain. He knew that the Order of the Phoenix had sent people to Gringotts to discuss an alliance, but was rejected outright by the goblins. They even deliberately recruited Death Eaters to get the reward money.

Those unlucky guys escaped death because they were well prepared. They had anticipated that the goblin might be despicable and reveal the news, so they were always on guard and finally managed to escape.

When they came back they had a big quarrel with Theseus Scamander because it was Theseus Scamander who issued the order.

The Geminis also happened to hear the news because they were arguing and not paying attention to their surroundings when they were talking.
