HP: The Shadow Returns

Even when Old Nott came to Voldemort to discuss the wedding in detail, his old bones felt much lighter, but he looked at that very familiar face from many years ago.

He couldn't help but recall the past, when he accompanied the young Voldemort to Hogwarts to apply for the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Unfortunately, it failed and Dumbledore rejected him.

Although it took almost a week, all the details and matters of the wedding were successfully negotiated, and Huerta's intervention and opinions were indispensable.

The first day of school is coming soon.

The Slytherin students all gathered in a tight bunch and came to visit Gaunt in the carriage one after another, because they knew that one of the real powers in the wizarding world was here now.

The smile on Huerta's face continued all the way. It was the first time that a woman truly showed her appearance. Many people were amazed by it, but most of them were curious.

When I got off the bus with Theodore, the number of people around me still hadn’t decreased.

Among the crowd in the distance, she saw Hermione, who was extremely pale and was being supported by Ron, and some very young members of the Order of the Phoenix. They all glanced at her in unison.

Or fear and surprise, or anger and disgust...

Only Harry Potter, his cold and resentful eyes never left her, his face was bloodless, and he even looked the same as when she first arrived in the first grade.

If Ginny hadn't been dragging him next to him, the impulsive boy might have come up to question him directly, but she might not have to wait too long for this part.

Huerta's face already had a smile on his face that was about to reap victory.

There were a lot of new students this year, and Snape had already replaced Dumbledore in his original position as principal. He gave a welcome speech to these new students with an expressionless face.

Mag stood aside sadly. She glanced at Huerta when she met her for the first time, and then never looked at her again.

The depressed atmosphere and the Ministry of Magic investigators and Death Eaters who replaced many professors pervaded the entire Hogwarts.

However, there is one thing that no one expected.

New Defense Against the Dark Arts professor!

When Snape pronounced the name.

"Theaster Gaunt"

Gunter?

Virta narrowed her eyes when she heard the name. As soon as Snape finished speaking, a handsome young man wearing a long black slim coat, a retro gray vest and leather shoes appeared on the professor's chair.

Slughorn, who returned to be the potions professor, was also confused and his eyes widened. This was exactly the same as when Voldemort was in school!

McGonagall, who was in the same class as Voldemort, even her hands that could not speak were shaking for a moment, and her face was full of disbelief. She subconsciously wanted to take out her wand to protect the students.

But Snape stopped him with his eyes.

I didn't tell myself this at first, I had to think about when to leave my job quickly, Slughorn thought, and tremblingly picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Several Slytherins had seen Voldemort's restored appearance, and they all unanimously set their sights on Virta. Theodore knew that his fiancée probably didn't know what she thought of her brother.

This is all too sudden.

Harry's eyes widened at that moment.

The familiar feeling made the pain of the scar on his head intensify. He trembled and covered his head and arched his waist. Seeing this, Ginny quickly took out the ice pack he always used at the Burrow from her pocket and handed it to him.

The long-term nervous tension has made the girl look haggard.

Ron lowered his head nervously and blocked Hermione with his body.

It seems that this man is not simple, and there is only one person who can influence Harry in this way. Voldemort is coming? ?

Virta narrowed her eyes and watched Voldemort smile at her. She was the first to raise her hands and applaud, followed closely by the others, followed by the entire Slytherin and Hogwarts.

After the sorting ceremony, many people following Virta began to speculate in their hearts about the meaning of the Dark Lord's sudden appointment as professor.

Only Huerta knew that he might just want to simply experience it. After all, this was a "job" that had been forced to be put on hold for decades.

Although Quirrell had helped him realize part of his wish last time, it would be easier for him to do things like being a teacher himself.

But I hope he didn't come here for his puppy, but unfortunately, there is a high probability that he did.

In the evening, Harry and the children of the Order of the Phoenix also confirmed that the new Magical Defense Professor was Voldemort himself.

"He didn't originally look like this."

"I heard you say he has a snake face."

"What if he can hear it?"

...

Everyone was frightened, including Slytherin. Their fear of the Dark Lord was real, and fear forced them to make judgments.

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class the next day, many people were restless, even though Voldemort was smiling and giving a normal lecture.

Harry's head seemed to have stopped hurting, but his eyes were very gloomy. Even Voldemort would maliciously answer questions at him several times.

The savior must not let him see his fragile and fearful side.

Absolutely not.

It can be seen that he is indeed very perseverant. After one class, even if it was the Dark Lord's teasing or the oppression from Virta, Harry Potter could bear it all.

Ron and Hermione's worries were about to turn into reality, and Neville also became brave. He had prepared many things in his pocket that could soothe his spirits.

As soon as get out of class was over, he handed them all to Harry.

"Thank you, Neville"

Hermione had a smile on her pale and thin face, and Neville raised his hand to scratch his hair.

"You're welcome"

"Look who this is, looking so miserable?"

A mean voice appeared from behind, and everyone knew who it was without turning around.

"Malfoy, can you get away?" Ron quietly looked at Virta in the distance and suppressed his desire to say dirty words.

"Who taught you to talk like this? Do you and your mother say the same thing? I forgot. It's not your turn to talk to your mother at home. Your brother in front of you has already squeezed you out."

Draco hugged his chest, whistled, and looked at each other with the people around him, who all laughed in unison.

"Ignore them and leave quickly," Neville said in a low voice to several people as he had been bullied to the point of psychological trauma in recent years.

"Go? Where?"

Seeing that Malfoy was not going to let them go easily, when Ron was about to get angry, the already irritable Harry rushed up and punched him.

"How dare you hit me?"

"Shut your ass!"

Those who joined the fight, those who broke up the fight, and those who started the fight all rushed forward, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
