Harry Potter: Glory Bows to Me

Once again they came to Snape's dark and cramped basement office.

"Godfather, what do you want from us?"

Draco spoke first.

"I received a letter from Lucius this morning. It seems that this old fox is still on the side of Hogwarts for the time being. Well, but I have other reasons for calling you here today."

As Snape spoke to them, he remained standing at his desk, stirring a potion.

Amanta looked around. Not only was this office as simple as the Slytherin dormitory, but upon closer inspection, there was not a single personal item in it. There were only potions and materials, or some books that looked profound and obscure.

"First of all, my dear godson, your father wants you to stay away from these things, things about the Dark Lord. He wants you to stay away from danger, the farther the better."

Draco was silent for a moment: "Yes, Godfather."

"As for you, Merlin and Potter, stop interfering in the Dark Lord's affairs. Hogwarts is the safest place in the world. No one can hurt you from here, from under Dumbledore's nose, unless you seek your own death."

Harry said anxiously, "But Professor, Voldemort wants to steal the Philosopher's Stone! Moreover, he has already sneaked in once!"

Amanta said calmly: "Professor, the Philosopher's Stone is in the corridor on the right on the fourth floor, right?"

She stared at Snape's sharp brows, trying to read something from them, and Snape stared back at her coldly.

"Since it was announced at the opening feast that the area was a restricted area, I think some obstacles must have been set up there, but are you sure these obstacles can stop Voldemort?"

"What if..." She changed the subject, "If even a few of us first-year students can't stop him, are you sure that they can really stop Voldemort?"

After returning to her dormitory safely last night, she reorganized her thoughts.

A few days ago, during the afternoon tea in Hagrid's cabin, the three of them discussed their plan to explore the fourth floor corridor.

Although she did not tell Draco and Harry exactly what was in the corridor, she already knew the original plot and the challenges that the original trio of Harry, Ron and Hermione faced.

But when everything calmed down, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

The original plot constrained her thinking.

She had a bold guess that if she, Harry and Draco broke into the corridor on the fourth floor, the levels they would encounter might not be about finding keys, playing wizard chess or potion logic questions.

I'm afraid these checkpoints in the corridor are not designed to stop Voldemort at all.

After all, the tricks set up by Dumbledore and the professors couldn't even stop a few first-year students, let alone Quirrell and Voldemort.

If Quirrell and Voldemort had used dark magic to brute force their way through - that would have been even faster.

Even in the original plot, Quirrell was one step ahead of the trio and reached the final level unscathed.

The only thing that could truly stop Voldemort from getting the Philosopher's Stone was the Mirror of Erised, and the only one who could get the Philosopher's Stone from the mirror was Harry.

Even Harry's obsession with the Mirror of Erised during Christmas seemed like Dumbledore's plan.

-deliberately gave him the Invisibility Cloak at that time, so that Harry would always wander around with the Invisibility Cloak on during Christmas, and placed the Mirror of Erised in an empty classroom.

I'm afraid all the checkpoints on the fourth floor are set up just to prevent Harry's companions from reaching the finish line.

These levels are set up for Harry's friends - one person is deliberately left behind in each of the last few levels.

This is to ensure that when it comes to the final stage, Harry is the only one facing Voldemort.

Next... Voldemort will not kill Harry immediately, because he wants to use Harry to get the Philosopher's Stone from the Mirror of Erised, and Harry of course wants revenge and to stop Voldemort from getting the Philosopher's Stone.

With any luck, Voldemort and Quirrell would be killed during the fight by the protective spell on Harry.

However, in the original plot, Voldemort abandoned Quirrell and fled in panic at the critical moment, so he survived by chance, but Quirrell died tragically on the spot.

She shuddered at her own conjecture.

What a great move to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

Although she could understand Dumbledore's thoughts, she couldn't help but be deeply shocked by his meticulous planning.

"I guess those obstacles are not what stopped Voldemort at all, right?"

"Dumbledore just wants to leave the two of us behind, so that Harry can face Voldemort alone—"

She looked directly into Snape's deep eyes, and his expression was calm.

"Ms. Merlin, your imagination is beyond my reach."

Well, she didn't expect to read any useful information from the expression of Snape, the excellent Occlumency master.

But she knew that besides her and Draco, the only one who really didn't want Harry to die was Snape.

"I warn you little trolls, if you don't want to be killed by curiosity, absolutely - do not step into the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor. The Dark Lord will never get the Philosopher's Stone from there."

Snape seemed to say nothing, yet seemed to have said everything.

But he was right. As long as Harry didn't step into the corridor on the fourth floor, then Voldemort would never be able to get the Philosopher's Stone.

How could Dumbledore treat something as important as the Philosopher's Stone as a reward for completing a level, placing it behind several small levels for people to take?

If Harry didn't go in there, Harry wouldn't be in danger and Voldemort wouldn't get the Philosopher's Stone, but - there would be one less chance to get close to Voldemort and kill him.

Voldemort has temporarily left Quirrell. Although it is unknown where Voldemort is now, he may come back at any time.

It seems that she will have to pay more attention in the future.

What they experience in the future will definitely be more different from the original story.

She deeply realized the importance of learning more spells, combat, and learning wandless magic and silent spells.

Especially wandless magic and silent spells, which can play a decisive role at certain critical moments in actual combat.

Their SO group has a long way to go.

Snape glared at Harry fiercely: "Especially you, Potter, who always loves to stir up trouble everywhere, is exactly the same as your arrogant father -"

Harry blushed.

"Professor, you can't say that about my father," Harry protested fiercely.

Amanta tugged at Harry's robes from behind, trying to pull him back.

She knew that Snape warned Harry not to go to the fourth floor because he was worried about his safety, but Snape's harsh words seemed to have completely backfired.
