Hogwarts: Harry's Path to Witches

Chapter 235: The Dark Lord or the White Devil (there are still 6000 words of chapter left in the evening, to make up for Saturday)

Rita became more and more excited as she talked, and finally became completely immersed in the topic.

But a clear girl's voice brought Rita back to reality: "Sister Harley, she is lying!"

Hedwig stood above Harry, staring at Rita:

"When she first started using this excuse, I could tell that she was not confident and was constantly thinking of reasons to improve this excuse."

The expression on Rita's face changed slightly, and she continued to maintain the smile on her face: "How is it possible? How could I deceive my child?"

"Also, Potter, why can your owl talk? I don't think you should trust it. It may be possessed by some dark magic..."

"Thank you, Hedwig." Harley ignored Rita, nodded sharply, and clapped her hands gently.

A piece of spider silk pulled a berry from a nearby branch and threw it directly into Rita's mouth, blocking what she wanted to say next.

At the same time, Harley's pair of gloves exuded an invisible spiritual light.

"bribe!"

"The twisted and lying will is off track!"

"Shock and mental oppression!"

"Law of all laws, lies are forbidden here!"

"Judgement: The criminal's spirit accepts the punishment of the invisible whip!"

"Judgment·The criminal's spirit and will will be weakened!"

Although given enough time, a witch can torture or seduce the information she wants to know from the mouth of anyone who cannot resist.

But in this field of interrogation, it is the extraordinary men of these two paths, lawyers and arbitrators, who are the professionals.

Under the powerful oppression of various extraordinary abilities, Rita felt that she was being put on layers of invisible shackles, and her spirit was greatly oppressed and impacted.

"Okay, dear Miss Kist, please repeat yourself, why are you here?" Harley asked softly.

Although restricted by extraordinary abilities, the extraordinary abilities of the lawyer path need to be gradually added up to exert their maximum power.

Rita is not a criminal now, and the law of all laws cannot mark her, so the deterrent effect is not particularly perfect.

Rita herself is also a powerful wizard, and the bloody scenes she has witnessed in her years of special journalist career have given her a strong will.

So under instinct, Rita subconsciously said:

"Didn't I say it before? I'm here to investigate possible illegal breeding farms in the Forbidden Forest..."

"what--!"

Before Rita could finish her words, she was forced to swallow them back.

It was replaced by a shrill scream.

The glove on Harley's right hand flashed with luster, and the law of all laws marked Rita as a criminal, and the judgment ability began to punish her.

With her whole body restrained and unable to move, Rita began to bang her head against the trees in an attempt to relieve her pain.

She had felt as if a steel whip had struck her soul hard, and her head seemed to have been split in half by a blunt axe, causing endless pain.

Under the oppression of this pain and other extraordinary forces, Rita's eyes became a little dull.

"You see, lying is useless. No one can lie within the range of my magic."

Harley spoke softly, with a strange hazy feeling in her voice.

There was green light flowing behind her eyes, and the curse and black magic that weakened the witch's path were taking effect.

The black flame also condensed out of thin air and turned into a small snake, gently licking Rita's cheek, bringing greater psychological oppression to Rita.

"Come, tell me, why are you here?"

Under the pressure of multiple extraordinary abilities, Rita replied in a confused tone: "I want to make a big news."

Rita then began to tell her plan.

She had been using her Animagus form to monitor the outside of Hogwarts since before Easter.

One time, she heard Hagrid complaining to the big black dog he raised on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, saying that Harry definitely sneaked into the Forbidden Forest often, but he never found out.

After catching this sentence, Rita immediately began to change time, resting during the day, and waiting outside Hogwarts at night.

She has always believed that to make news, you must make different breaking news.

The day-to-day life of a recipient of the Order of Merlin, First Class is not breaking news.

But it is big news that such an outstanding student violates school rules and often sneaks into dangerous places like the Forbidden Forest at night.

If Harley does some dangerous things in the Forbidden Forest, such as experimenting with some dark magic, then this news will be even more selling.

Rita was already very satisfied with tonight's harvest.

Harley slaughtered the dangerous dark creature Acromantula in the Forbidden Forest, and she also used wandless spells, and even disemboweled the Acromantula with her own hands.

As long as this is well arranged and matched with photos, this will definitely be big news that can shock the wizarding world!

She had already thought of the title, "Butcher or Devil?" The dark face of the youngest recipient of the Order of Merlin, First Class in history! 》

As soon as this title comes out, combined with his own style of writing and little hints in various aspects, he can definitely create the image of a perfect evil wizard.

Rita even imagined that she would make a lot of money from this news and greatly increase her reputation.

As for how Harley will treat others later, she doesn't care.

What does the life and death of others have to do with yourself? As long as you make money, that's enough.

After listening to Rita's words, Harley shook her head.

To be honest, she quite admired Rita's mentality. In a world with magic and extraordinary power, only such people can live longer and better.

But Rita was at fault, she had provoked herself, and that was her fault.

Just this is enough.

Harley waved her wand, and a stream of cold water sprayed out from the tip of the wand, pouring it on Rita's face.

The effects of various extraordinary abilities were also slightly reduced, became softer, and began to lean towards the direction of induction.

It was up to Harley to control the beetle.

As an immortal witch, she is very aware of the influence of public opinion, and also understands how important it is for a good reporter to build the image of the subject of the report.

It took Rita a while to wake up.

She wanted to reach out and rub her head, which was still in severe pain, but found that her hands and feet were tied.

Rita didn't have time to think, so she just followed her instinct, shook her head, and gradually recalled the previous memories.

The confused expression on Rita's face gradually turned into panic: "Potter, I..."

But she was speechless because the sneaker against her chin gave a slight upward force, forcing Rita to shut up.

"Dear Miss Kist, didn't you speculate in the newspapers that I was the next Dumbledore or the future Dark Lord?"

"I think you can know the answer today, and you can also write a report and publish it in tomorrow's Ghost Daily. Are you happy?"

Harley's voice was extremely gentle, but Rita became more and more panicked.

What is "Ghost Daily"? It was a joke, a reference to news circulating among ghosts.

With these words, Harley almost made it clear that she wanted to turn herself into a ghost!

This made Rita extremely panicked and felt that she had chosen the wrong target this time.

You know, although Rita pursues special news, there are certain restrictions on the objects of reporting.

She had seen many crime scenes where dark wizards and pure-blood wizards tortured Muggles, and had seen their cruel methods.

Just reporting these news can cause a big earthquake in the magic world.

Why didn't Rita report on these situations? It’s not because they know how to kill people, and they really dare to kill people!

Rita knew very well that it would be difficult to catch a truly ferocious dark wizard with the help of the rubbish from the Ministry of Magic.

What's more, many senior officials in the Ministry of Magic are also participants in these things. After all, there are many Death Eaters who escaped trial or their relatives.

Rita is not a stupid person. A stupid person can't learn Animagus, nor can he be a reporter in the magical world for so long.

She doesn't want to be retaliated, so she only chooses those magic masters who are moral, famous, and extremely broad-minded, and stares at them to report negative news.

After all, these people don't know how to kill, at least they won't use it against themselves for such a trivial matter.

But I probably fell into trouble today.

She originally thought that Harry, as Dumbledore's apprentice, would be a white wizard with exemplary morals.

Now Rita realized that she was wrong. He should not examine her qualifications as a white wizard, but should pray to Harley to become a white wizard so that she could save her life.

She looked at Harry with fearful eyes, and kept whining and trying to make a sound, but she couldn't say a word.

"You also saw those Acromantulas before and took photos, so you must be very impressed."

Harley continued, "Then guess what I will become? The Dark Lord or the Sage? Or...the White Lord?"

With that, Harley pulled her feet back so Rita could speak.

But Rita swallowed and couldn't say a word.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, your mental quality is really poor." Harley jumped off the spider silk, shook her head, and waved lightly.

The spider silk disappeared instantly and turned into spots of light all over the sky.

Rita's pupils shrank when she saw this scene. Although the restraints on her body had been lifted, she still didn't dare to move.

"I feel that your life is in my hands, even more fragile than this hair, but suddenly I don't want to kill you."

Without even looking at Rita, Harley wrapped her hair around her fingers, "You're useful, so we might as well make a deal."

"You are not allowed to write bad things about me in the newspaper from now on, well...and Hermione...and my other friends."

"On the contrary, you should praise me in the newspaper and guide my image in a good direction."

"At the same time, you have to help me explore some information. I haven't figured out the specific information yet. I will inform you when needed."

"Of course, as a deal, I will not reveal the news that you are an illegal Animagus, and you can continue your favorite journalist career."

Harley's voice was full of bewitchment and contained unknown magic. The surrounding extraordinary abilities are also activated in conjunction, affecting Rita's thinking ability.

Rita nodded quickly: "Of course, Miss Potter, I can praise you in various ways every day."

"And I can tell you whatever information you want to know. I have many secrets in my hands now, including evidence that some psychopathic pure-blood families went to foreign countries to plunder Muggles and brought them back to torture and kill them."

She didn't hesitate at all. This condition seemed to Rita to be very good. As long as I can survive, this is better than anything else.

"It seems that you have agreed. But I don't need that kind of information for the time being. I will contact you when it is needed."

Harley nodded and used a slight force on her fingers. The hair wrapped around her fingertips broke and turned into green light.

The light instantly penetrated the back of Rita's hand, gathering a mark on it.

That is the symbol that symbolizes the original witch.

But in this world without the original witch, Harley unceremoniously took it into her own.

"A very convenient mark, you can contact me through it." Harley snapped her fingers, and the mark instantly faded, and finally disappeared completely.

"The method of controlling the imprint is also left in the imprint. You can understand it as long as you concentrate."

Rita looked at the mark on the back of her hand and gasped as she seemed to remember something.

Her eyes originally only contained the fear of death and the desire to survive, but now there were some strange emotions.

The mark created by Harley and the means of communication that the mark can serve reminded her of a person, that terrifying mysterious man.

The mysterious man is good at black magic, and likes the Cruciatus Curse and the Death Curse, but the black flames and other magic that Harley used previously are no different from black magic.

You-Know-Who loves killing, and in the later stages of You-Know-Who's activity, he would even kill some Death Eaters who had made terrible mistakes.

And Harley had just easily killed six Acromantulas, and even two of them were killed with bare hands. She was not a kind-hearted person.

And now this mark is exactly the same as the legendary Black Devil Mark. It can be used to communicate, and it can even convey more complete information than the Black Devil Mark.

Sweat fell down Rita's face. She felt like she was witnessing the birth of a new Dark Lord!

Come to think of it, some of the rumors in Knockturn Alley might be true: Why would You-Know-Who target Harry Potter as a baby?

Why didn't Harley get blown to pieces instead of having You-Know-Who lose his powers?

There is an unacceptable but very reasonable conclusion: Harry Potter is a born dark wizard who can even threaten the status of You-Know-Who!

Feeling that she knew some truth, Rita's expression became more humble: "I am happy to serve you, the great Harry Potter."

Although he didn't know what Rita had in mind, Harry could guess from her expression.

But Harley didn't care and just waved her hand: "Then it's decided, Miss Skeeter."

"Good night, I wish you sweet dreams."
