Mentor and Friends

Before Harry even had time to get acquainted with Charles, Harry started packing his luggage two days later because of Vent's urging.

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us?" Harry confirmed again before leaving.

Tom nodded slowly.

"Okay, Tom, see you next time." Even if Tom didn't say anything, Harry knew that he would never see Tom when he came back. There's no way it's coming back, bloody Slytherin pride.

"Okay, let's go." Vyent still hid himself in the hood, his voice was cold and without emotion.

In fact, he didn't have to accompany Harry, and they were just ordinary friends, but it was said that there was something he was looking for in that forest, so they would go together.

Tom's gaze flicked over Viente, and the other party didn't pay attention to his almost warning gaze, or the other party simply pretended not to notice it.

"Take care of yourself, don't eat too many snacks." Tom hugged Harry at the end, and urged him. It seemed that Harry was the older one, but many times, Harry's actions were actually very worrying.

"Oh, they actually taste good, okay okay." Seeing Tom's eyes turned sharp, Harry quickly changed his words, "I promise you, I will eat on time and on time, I brought a lot of dry food, even if I spend the night in the forest No problem."

Then, Harry left, and the three men put on the hoods in front of him, only their chins were exposed, and no one could see their appearance clearly.

They apparated in front of Tom.

Of course, this journey is too long, they can't apparate all the time, only Harry has this ability, but even for Harry, a long-distance apparition across the UK will consume a lot of Harry's magic power, let alone Some time ago, Harry's magic power experienced a dry-up, and now Harry's situation is not at its peak.

They could only apparate for a certain distance, and then made their way to France in another way.

Tom actually didn't know that forest, he only knew that it was on the French border, but he didn't ask about the specific location.

It's just that Tom knows that he won't run into Harry next time.

There was the unique sound of Apparition coming from around. This is the settlement of wizards, and the occasional Apparition sound would not affect people. It was early in the morning when Harry left, so no one appeared here at this time.

Tom saw a few men in black robes approaching him after Apparating, and they listened when they were about five feet away from him, bowing their heads slightly in a salute.

"Lord." The other party saluted him respectfully.

Tom nodded.

"Lord, let's..."

"Wait here," said Tom coldly, and turned and went into the house.

His things are already packed.

Just go in and grab your stuff.

But before leaving, Tom carefully checked the doors and windows to make sure there was nothing missing, and then closed the door tightly.

"Lord, we..."

"Go to Germany." Tom narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the direction Harry left before, "Let everyone transfer to Germany."

Harry will stay in France for a while, he doesn't want to meet Harry, and it is necessary for him to go to Germany. Although the war in the Muggle world is over, dark wizards are still gathering in Germany.

Although the Muggle world will affect the wizarding world, the "gathering" of dark wizards is not just about impact.

Tom just wanted to take this opportunity to go to Germany. Although dealing with dark wizards was dangerous, it was the most direct and reliable way.

At this time, although Harry knew that Tom was going to go anywhere, he didn't know that Tom's first stop would be Germany—Of course Tom would not tell him that Harry was too smart, or that Harry knew Tom too well, he just needed to Tom told him his itinerary, and Harry could quickly guess what Tom wanted to do.

There was always a vacillating guess between them, a guess that came from Harry's too deep-seated knowledge of what was happening in his own world, a suspicion that came from Tom's disbelief that Harry would stay for him.

For Harry, he always believed that as long as Tom was exposed to black magic, sooner or later, Tom would fall into it and get out of it. For Tom, he always believed that Harry's love for him was not enough to support Harry. Abandon everything and stay in this world.

This suspicion has always been between the two of them, and it has become an obstacle in their emotional journey.

There has to be someone who regresses in love, and he wants Harry to stay, and the bottom line for Harry is that he can no longer make Horcruxes.

But the temptation to fly away from death is too good, too good to give up.

The Horcrux Harry touched was synonymous with failure, so why, he couldn't slow everything down, wait for the moment of success, and confess to Harry?

Tom left Godric's Hollow without hesitation. For his cold nature, he stayed here only because Harry was here.

One day, he would come back with success, and Harry would be completely reassured about himself.

Harry didn't know what Tom was thinking, and now they had Apparated to a small village.

In this era of rapid development of the Muggle world, especially in this era when the Muggle Wars have just stopped, such small villages are rare.

Most of the towns and villages were destroyed in that war, and it would have been more serious if Grindelwald hadn't worried about Albus in England at that time.

The three of Harry had Apparated several times in a row, and they needed a break.

There is no hotel in the village, but the villagers welcome them as guests.

They are simple and kind. Although they are wizards, because of their peaceful and quiet life, the wands are rarely used. Even if it is housework, they are keen to do it themselves.

"It's been a long time since I came across a village like this," Ron sighed. "My mother likes to use magic to do housework."

"Your mother is too busy taking care of your brothers and sisters," said Harry.

Vent sat aside, listening to their chat, without saying a word. In fact, he shut himself in the hood in silence most of the time, only when Harry asked where to Apparate next. He only said a few words when it was time.

"It's more unbearable than the old bat." Ron once commented.

Harry just smiled.

Speaking of the old bat, he would think of the guy who was always making trouble for him with a cold face, but at this point in time, he remembered that Irene was only in the second grade, at least a few days away from the birth of Severus Snape. There are seven years.

Harry shook his head, not intending to say anything.

Now many things are moving towards his unknown track, and he himself does not know whether Irene will marry a Muggle in the future.

Because it is a small village, they can only squeeze into one room. Fortunately, they have magic to expand the scope of the room, but there is only one real bed in it.

Vinter chose to sit in a chair, Harry thought about it, and finally nodded.

The rest of their journey required sheer energy, and he was used to having friends by his side, maybe now there was an extra Tom?

At night, Harry and Ron were lying on the same bed, while Vent stood at the window looking out at the scenery.

Harry didn't know if he was asleep, he felt that he had woken up very early, and there must be someone he didn't know very well in the room that made him unable to fall asleep, but when he woke up, Vent was still standing by the window side.

Did he just stand here all night?

Harry looked at the other party puzzled, but the other party still hid his face in the hood. For a long time, Harry wondered if the other party was afraid of the sun, maybe because he had been in Knockturn Alley for a long time so he didn't like the sun ?Oh, well, he couldn't understand the minds of those people.

The basis of Apparition is that you have been to that place, and your mind can paint that picture, and Harry has obviously never been to the border. They chose other modes of transportation after Apparation approached the border. Fortunately, Although it was a bit slow, a week later, they appeared on time at the edge of the forest.

"Well, it doesn't feel very good." Standing in front of the forest, Harry frowned, the forest and the grass were too distinct, and in front of him was a tree that could only be embraced by two or three people, Harry Even though, the edges of many forests are actually dominated by small trees or bushes, and this one is really unique.

"It's like telling us that someone has set a trap inside and is waiting for us to jump in." Ron also frowned.

"Be careful when you go in." Harry took out his wand. "Take out your wand."

"Hey, you..." A shout came from not far away, "Are you going into the forest?"

Harry turned his head, looking behind him.

Behind him, a witch in a violet robe and a wizard hidden by a black hood were running towards him.

"Hello..." Harry would not maintain such a friendly attitude towards the people who suddenly appeared at the border of this forest, but he never forgot that this is the Black Forest.

Those who are famous are naturally mostly dark wizards.

Even though the woman in front of him had golden wavy hair and looked warm and beautiful, Harry could still tell that it was a dark wizard.

"We want to go in too, but it's said that it's dangerous here," the woman looked very familiar, "Why don't we have a companion?"

Harry hesitated for a while, but before he could say anything, Vent had already pulled him and Ron inside.

"No need." Vent replied coldly.

"Oh, I was rejected." The woman looked at their backs gradually disappearing into the forest, and smiled softly, "Honey, we were rejected." The woman hugged the wizard behind him, "I feel very angry, why? manage?"

The man hugged her back, and the hood gradually slid down, revealing his ugly face that seemed to have been corroded: "Then punish them, dear." He said hoarsely.

The author has something to say: Someone said Irene... I suddenly found out that Irene is only in the second grade now, and I counted that she met the Muggle as soon as she graduated, fell in love, got married, and so on, at least seven or eight years later... ...which means we'll have to wait another 2-7 years to meet the prof and jaime because they're the same age otz
