As the final exams were approaching, all the students were busy and few people came to the defense team meetings.

Aeris would still wait in the "DA Hut" every Saturday morning, but the few people who could summon the patronus basically no longer came to the "DA Hut".

This should be the last defense team gathering before the final exam. Aeris found another Boggart in the castle and wanted to help as many students as possible who were willing to attend the gathering and help them master the Patronus Charm as much as possible.

The nearly one year of training has not been in vain, and the students who have persevered are just one step away from summoning a fully formed guardian angel.

With the help of Aeris, at the last defense team gathering of the year, all the students who insisted on attending summoned complete guardian angels.

Fred and George looked at the two flying silver magpies with strange expressions, and they couldn't tell which one they summoned;

A silver horse circled Ginny merrily;

Zhang Qiu's eyes were full of stars as he showed Cedric the silver swan he had summoned;

A beautiful silver rabbit was lying on Luna's shoulder. Luna had a nonchalant expression, as if she had just summoned a patronus in her second year and there was nothing to be proud of.

Draco's patronus was unusually beautiful, a silver peacock spreading its tail feathers, and Draco looked at his patronus with great satisfaction.

Only Neville, the patronus he summoned was between formed and unformed, and it was difficult to tell what kind of animal it was.

Looking at Neville who looked lost, Aeris patted him on the shoulder and said firmly: "This must be a lion, a lion from Gryffindor."

Neville forced a smile. Even without using Legilimency, Aeris understood the meaning of his expression: "Thank you... I'm just a little clumsy... but I'm not stupid..."

"Have some confidence, buddy..." said Aeris.

The final exam did not bring much pressure to Aries. On the contrary, Aries felt that the exam was over easily.

After the exam, Hermione also put down her burden. When Edwards, Harry and Ron returned to the common room chatting and laughing, Hermione was lying in an armchair in the corner, sleeping soundly. Edwards waved his wand and the armchair turned into a small bed, allowing Hermione to lie more comfortably, then he left silently with the other two companions.

Just when everyone thought that the year would end like this, as expected, an accident happened.

On a sunny afternoon, Aeris, Harry and their friends were enjoying a leisurely afternoon tea time in Hagrid's hut. Norrington was outside the hut, gnawing on the raw meat that Hagrid had prepared for him.

Hermione held Crookshanks in her arms, took a sip of tea and smacked her lips contentedly. Hagrid was about to add more tea for everyone. He was rummaging through the shelf where sundries were placed when suddenly a big rat fell from the shelf.

With a "pop", the big rat fell to the ground and ran out of the door without any hesitation. Norrington glanced at the big rat and didn't care. It was just a small piece of meat that escaped, not enough for him to fill his teeth.

Crookshanks broke free from Hermione's arms and chased after the big rat. "Come back, Crookshanks," Hermione shouted and chased after it.

"Ron, does that big rat look familiar to you?" Aeris said. Ron was stunned for a moment, then he understood and his face looked a little strange.

"What are you two playing at?" Harry asked in confusion. Ron whispered to Harry, "The big rat that just ran away was Scabbers..."

Harry also understood. Edwards drank his tea, said hello to Hagrid, and chased after Hermione. Harry and Ron also said goodbye to Hagrid and followed Edwards.

They soon caught up with Hermione and followed her to the Whomping Willow. Crookshanks was still catching the big rat. When Ron realized that it was the former Scabbers, his face was filled with indignation.

"You despicable dwarf," Ron roared, "what is your purpose in lurking in our house?" Ron said and helped Crookshanks to intercept the big rat.

Aeris waved his wand a few times, and the big rat staggered a few times and rolled into the bushes. Ron pounced on it. "Aha!" Ron said in surprise, "I caught you. You must tell me the truth..."

A majestic black hound came out from the bushes. Aeris, Harry and Hermione looked incredulous. "Sirius!?" they shouted in unison.

Ron held the big rat tightly, no matter how it struggled, and even locked its mouth tightly to prevent it from biting his hand again.

"What Sirius?" Ron asked confusedly.

Before anyone could react, the big black hound pounced on Ron, bit one of his legs, and dragged him towards the Whomping Willow.

"Ah!" Ron screamed, "Harry, Hermione, Aries... help me..." Ron's screams stopped abruptly, and he was dragged into the tree hole under the roots of the whoring willow by the big black hound.

"Ron!" The other three shouted and rushed towards the Whomping Willow regardless of anything. Sensing someone approaching, every leaf of the Whomping Willow seemed to be on alert. Just as it was about to take action, Aerys waved his wand and shouted, "Stop!"

The Whomping Willow stopped moving, and Aeris said, "Hurry up, I can't hold on for much longer..."

Crookshanks was the first to crawl into the tree hole, followed by Harry and Hermione without hesitation, and finally Aries also crawled into the tree hole.
