Sometimes, one has to admit that Dumbledore is always full of surprises.

Time always passes quietly.
After Dumbledore announced the end of the banquet, all the young wizards from the four houses returned to their dormitories in an orderly manner, led by the prefects.
Of course, there was one important tradition that couldn't be skipped during this time—the singing of the school song in unison.
…
Outside the Great Hall.
While everyone was busy discussing the Triwizard Tournament, Ino turned and walked toward the stairs.

Hogwarts Great Hall.
As Ino withdrew his gaze, Moody similarly shifted his eyes away.
The elderly wizard, leaning on his cane, hobbled toward the staff table.
To be fair, despite using a cane, Moody's pace was no slower than that of a normal person; in fact, there was a faint swiftness to his movements.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Dumbledore extended his hand and lightly embraced Moody.
After a brief exchange, the headmaster once again turned his attenti...

At the Gryffindor table:
As various delicious dishes appeared, Ron immediately began devouring them with gusto. After sitting on the train for most of the day, his stomach was starving.
Holding a large chicken drumstick in his left hand and a spoon in his right, he dug into a plate of mashed potatoes flavored with parsley and garlic.

Time always seems to flow unnoticed.
September 1, 1994.
At King's Cross Station, the Hogwarts Express quietly rested on the tracks.
Countless first-year wizards, accompanied by their families, curiously observed everything around them, each displaying a hint of excitement.
Whether from Muggle families or wizard families, Hogwarts was a place of longing for young wizards.
This was especially true for wizard families—after all, they had heard about it all th...

In a brief flash of memory, Nicolas Flamel recalled many things buried deep within his mind.
Moments passed.
"It truly surprises me that there are still two people in this world who can decipher the secrets of the Time-Turner to such a degree."
Although Nicolas' voice carried a tone of amazement, the hidden trace of joy within it was unmistakable.
However, Ino furrowed his brow slightly; he detected another meaning behind those words.

In truth, many things can change when you alter your fixed way of thinking.
In an instant, Ino thought of many things.
At the same time, a slightly absurd but somewhat reasonable conjecture flashed in his mind.
If this conjecture is correct, maybe he can experience the treatment of a protagonist once again.
Although the fantasy world cannot be chosen, he possesses a tool that can accurately enter the world, which was also his means of livelihood in the past.

The match was still ongoing.
In just under half an hour, the Irish team had scored 70 points, while the Bulgarian team hadn't scored a single point, remaining at zero.
To someone who doesn't understand Quidditch, this might seem like a one-sided massacre.
However, many seasoned fans saw the strategy behind it. The Bulgarian team had opted for a five-man defense strategy right from the start.
In simple terms, aside from the goalkeeper, the five players on the fieldâ...
