0786 Karkaroff's Fate

As Voldemort's voice continued to tell his tale of resurrection and revenge, the fear that had taken root in Lucius's heart began to spread like a tumor, growing deeper with each passing moment.

The Dark Lord's path to return had been tortuous, but the Dark Lord truly seemed truly blessed by fate itself. Cliodna, a powerful dark witch who could match Watson in strength, had come to his side due to some mysterious ancestral guidance, pulling him from the depths of despair.

The case...

0785 Explanation

The evening air was suddenly disrupted by the rustling of countless heavy cloaks. Every minute that crawled by, every agonizing second that stretched into eternity, brought with it the sharp crack of Apparition as more wizards appeared, their shadowy forms solidifying behind tombstones and fir trees.

Each new arrival was shrouded in darkness, their faces hidden beneath deep hoods that casted shadows, their identities concealed behind masks that glinted coldly in the dim light filtering ...

0784 Choices

The Malfoy Manor

The servants were tending to the lush green lawns, white peacocks strolled and pecked for food around the fountain plaza, and gentle breezes rippled across the lake's surface—this was another peaceful, tranquil day at Malfoy Manor.

The servants, taking advantage of a brief break in their duties, had gathered in small groups to engage in conversations about the day's most anticipated event. The second task of the Triwizard Tournament had captured the ima...

0783 Voldemort

Voldemort slowly turned his red gaze away from Harry's began to examine this physical body—the flesh and bone body he had desperately yearned for and dreamed of possessing throughout those fifteen torturous years of unimaginable darkness and ethereal exile.

His hands resembling spiders with their unnaturally long fingers, caressed his newly restored chest, arms, and face. Each touch was performed as if he were stroking the most precious treasures ever unearthed, his breathing became s...

0782 The Ritual

Bang!

The sound resounded through Harry's bones like the final tone of a funeral dirge, marking the end of everything he had ever held dear.

As if his spine had been violently yanked away from his body by some invisible, malicious force, Harry collapsed to his knees. The world fell silence in that terrible moment—so silent that Harry could hear the frantic rushing of his own blood through his veins.

Ron and Hermione, his two best friends, lay motionless on...

0781 Death

"You filthy, despicable wretch!" The words came from Ron's throat like shards of broken glass.

The shock of Karkaroff's betrayal hadn't yet begun to fade from Ron's wide, disbelieving eyes, and the pure fury that coursed through his veins made his voice tremble with rage. "Hermione was even planning to let you leave first, to give you a chance at survival, and you actually betrayed us!"

"Shut your mouth, you foolish boy who understands nothing!" Karkaroff's voice cracked as he spa...

0780 Fighting

Hermione suddenly felt the air around her become incredibly thick and oppressive, as if in the span of a single heartbeat, she had been transported back to the suffocating depths of the Black Lake.

The atmosphere pressed against her body crushing down on her chest and shoulders like an invisible boulder. The pressure was so intense that her ears began ringing with a persistent buzzing sound.

Ron stopped pulling Harry with such abruptness that his muscles cramped from the sudden st...

0779 Terror

"Don't talk nonsense, Ron!" Hermione scolded in a sharp whisper. But even as the words left her lips, her face drained of all color, becoming as white as the marble tombstones surrounding them.

The sound that had captured Ron's attention made her breathing stop, her chest freezing mid-inhale as if her very lungs had forgotten their purpose.

The haunting cry came from that misty path lined with tombstones. Indeed, some tormented creature was crying there, and its voice was coming a...

0778 The Graveyard

Without any warning or mental preparation, Hermione felt as if she had been violently stuffed into the churning drum of a massive washing machine. The world in front of her eyes spun in nauseating colors into one another like watercolors in the rain, while fierce, howling filled her ears with intensity!

This sudden change made her scream uncontrollably. The violent fluctuation of magical energy coursing through her body caused her shimmering tail fin to transform back into two ordinary ...

0777 Reaching

Hermione took one final, lingering look at Krum, who appeared increasingly frazzled and desperate under the harassment of the persistent Kappa. His shark-like transformation made his expressions difficult to read, but his body language spoke about his rising frustration and exhaustion.

After observing this troubling scene for several more seconds, Hermione made her decision and turned away, swimming into the darker depths of the lake.

She had originally felt deeply grateful to Kru...

0776 Black Lake

The sharp, piercing blast of the whistle cut through the cold morning air, and the stands erupted in cheers and applause.

Hermione's heart was filled with overwhelming concern for Harry and Ron's safety. She paid absolutely no attention to what the other champions were doing around her. She had also temporarily cast aside her own deeply private worry about whether she would be "utterly disgraced" if her performance was poor.

At this moment, only one thing mattered: she wanted noth...

0775 Ready to Begin

"NO"

Hermione's sudden piercing scream nearly shattered the silence in the common room. The friends surrounding her all had expressions of shock, and for a moment, they almost thought Hermione had encountered something again, perhaps suffered a dark curse or something.

"I actually!" Hermione stamped her feet force, her entire body trembling on the verge of complete collapse. Her voice cracked with her realization. "I actually just realized what's happening!"

Everyone in the ...

0774 Shock

The small, isolated room behind the Great Hall was one of those mysterious places within Hogwarts Castle that remained continuously locked and forgotten by most students and staff. The very last time Harry had seen this room being opened was on that night when Hermione had been chosen as Hogwarts' champion.

Driven by curiosity and perhaps seeking some small measure of control over the bewildering situation he found himself in, Harry stepped across the threshold and walked inside the cha...

0773 Notification

More than an hour had passed since the meeting in Dumbledore's office had concluded, and the castle of Hogwarts had settled into that peculiar stillness that comes in the hours before dawn.

When Harry and Ron from Gryffindor Tower, Cho Chang from Ravenclaw, and little Gabrielle Delacour, Fleur's younger sister were finally brought to the Great Hall, the sky had already begun to display that distinctive dark green glow. Outside the windows, the world was gradually awakening to the crisp,...

0772 Meeting Concluded

The longest weirdest silence since the meeting had begun fell upon the room. Every single person present was staring at Bryan Watson with expressions ranging from stunned amazement to fascination, their eyes wide and unblinking as they processed what they had just heard.

Yet despite the collective astonishment that filled the room, no one made even the slightest sound.

Bryan's proposal had gone far beyond the land of wild fantasy or creative problem-solving—it could only be desc...

0771 Reason

Completely ignoring the increasingly rowdy shouting and indignant protestations emanating from the chattering portraits on the walls, Karkaroff maintained that nauseating, artificially sweet smile of his.

His yellowed teeth gleamed in the flickering candlelight as he asked his seemingly innocent question to everyone present.

"May I ask, esteemed colleagues, what precisely is the essential purpose of our gathering here tonight?"

The question resounded through the air like a c...

0770 Surprise

Bryan's decision to throw the question to Professor McGonagall caught everyone in the room slightly off-guard. The unexpected deflection was particularly noteworthy because Watson had never been known as someone who lacked initiative, had no personal opinions, or habitually liked to shirk responsibility when difficult decisions needed to be made.

However, upon deeper reflection, the logic behind Watson's approach became clear and understandable to everyone present. Professor McGonagall ...

0769 The Treasures

Karkaroff and Madame Maxime exchanged meaningful glances across the table. However, in the presence of British Ministry of Magic officials both foreign headmasters maintained a cautious silence. Their lips remained sealed, and they gave absolutely no response to Ludo Bagman's probing question.

Their concerns were easily understandable to anyone familiar with the rules and traditions of the Triwizard Tournament. First and foremost, the tournament tasks required the champions to face thei...

0768 Surprise

"Demanding that Bryan surrender his wand?" The question erupted from Sirius' lips.

Before Bryan could even voice a response of his own, Sirius was already the first to react with visible displeasure.

"What conceivable right do they have to make such an outrageous and unprecedented demand?!" Sirius continued, his voice rising with each word as his indignation rose.

"Exactly my thoughts—" Remus said firmly nodding his head insistently, and his face also showed displeasure. 2025-07-06 11:29:44 +0000 UTC View Post

0767 Inside The Lake

The black silt at the bottom of the ancient lake was extraordinarily rich in nutrients, accumulated over countless centuries from decomposed organic matter, fallen leaves, and the natural cycle of aquatic life. This fertile underwater soil allowed the nearby aquatic plants to grow with remarkable abundance, creating an underwater forest.

According to the previously established plan, some dangerous Kappa and numerous Grindylows would be released among these large, tangled masses of water...

0766 At Black Lake

The two boys maintained an eerie silence, but their occasionally twitching lips, suppressed grins and nervous laughter were more than enough to show that regarding Hermione's bold and somewhat audacious intention to transform herself into a "mermaid" for practice, they were hardly as calm and composed as they appeared on the surface.

Hesitating with each step, the three came to the rocky riverside. After cautiously looking around in all directions, checking every possible hiding spot to...

0765 Plans

Compared to the days of running around everywhere recently, these past few days back at Hogwarts, though there was no time to truly rest, had been much more peaceful.

However, Bryan's return to Hogwarts had brought with it an additional task that needed his attention each morning before he could even consider breakfast. It was the inspection of all mails and packages sent to the students and professors of the school.

Bryan did not need to physically open each package or letter to ...

0764 Different Ideas

The Gryffindor Tower had witnessed countless evenings of partying and festivities but tonight, it had a particularly special atmosphere. The return of both Professor Watson and their own house champion, Hermione Granger, had filled the entire tower with a sense of celebration and new hope.

The common room, usually settling into quieter evening rhythms by this hour, remained active with energetic conversations, excited whispers, and the constant rustle of newspapers being passed from han...

0763 Return to Hogwarts

Bryan and Hermione were delayed for a while before setting off, mainly because of Hermione.

She said she couldn't find her toothbrush cup and needed to go to the Muggle shops near St. Mungo's to buy one.

Watching Hermione's rapidly leaving figure, Bryan felt slightly puzzled. This girl had always been exceptionally sharp-memoried and meticulous in character—how had she become somewhat scatterbrained after being injured once?

Despite the delay, they managed to arrive at Hog...

0762 The Ministry Situation

A wave of dizziness came over Neville, leaving him momentarily disoriented as he struggled to grasp the implications of what Professor Watson was trying to express. However, as his gaze fell upon the blade in his trembling hands, he couldn't deny that it was indeed the most breathtakingly beautiful weapon he had ever seen.

The sword's body was crafted from what appeared to be the purest silver. The glow in it moved beneath the surface like liquid starlight, creating patterns that shifte...

0761 Private Talks

Bryan had never been one to pursue gratitude from others for his actions, and the Longbottom family's overwhelming expressions of thanks, while touching and heartfelt, were not something he actively desired. His choice to attempt saving Frank and Alice Longbottom from their tragic fate had not been driven by any desire to gain their appreciation, but rather because he truly admired Neville's character.

Combined with the fact that Frank and Alice were both heroes of the previous wizardin...

0760 Happy Endings

Although the senior healers at St. Mungo's Hospital had anticipated the possibility of success to some extent, the awakening of the Longbottom couple from their seemingly permanent bedridden stupor after more than a decade of unconscious existence still caused an unprecedented and electrifying stir throughout the hospital.

Word of the miraculous recovery spread through the hospital like wildfire, carried by conversations between nurses, excited discussions among junior healers, and the ...

0759 The Family

Dawn broke in the eastern horizon, and the gentle spring breeze gradually awakened the sleeping metropolis that was London.

The exact founding date of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries had been lost to the passage of time. Wizarding historians could only say with certainty that it was established by the legendary healer Mungo Bonham sometime between the early sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Initially, it was nothing more than a small hospital composed of ...

0758 Success

"Death is not the end, but rather beginning of another journey. This concept has a more specific and detailed explanation throughout countless mythological texts and religious ancient books where it is believed that after mortal life reaches its end, the immortal soul will be reborn, thus beginning another completely different life."

Seeming to notice Bryan's gaze upon him, Dumbledore continued to stare at the magnificent ring of light. His face now showed layers of complexity in his ex...

0757 The Soul Corridor

The moment the familiar sight of the hospital ward appeared in front of his eyes, Bryan's entire body suddenly began to sway unsteadily. The weariness that emanated from the very depths of his soul made him desperately want to collapse onto the floor and surrender to the blessed unconsciousness that gestured to him with promises of relief.

His vision blurred at the edges, and dizziness came over him. Just as he staggered backward and was about to collapse, a strong wrinkled hand shot gr...
