Chapter 1007: New Horcrux

The green and red lights wanted to merge. At least Voldemort wanted to do so, Harry could clearly feel it.

But the statue he now embodied, or the monster hidden inside the statue, was in a confrontation with Voldemort and Harry.

It had its own will and did not want to be fused with Voldemort.

This resistance wouldn't last long, as it was too weak, as if it had suffered a severe blow and had not recovered.

It possessed powerful strength, but it wasn't in this space, and...

Chapter 1006: Real Dream

But Hermione didn't want to talk to him anymore. What happened next was entirely based on her own practical observations and conclusions.

Anyway, as long as Harry could ask Cho out, he would figure out what to do!

Evan didn't know anything at first, but he soon became proficient. This was a skill that could be learned by oneself without a teacher.

Right now, all she could think about was how to have fun with Evan in the snowy mountains and skiing, not wanting to talk about C...

Chapter 1005: Professor Hermione

These things were very cumbersome, and Ron kept complaining.

For example, when they were supervising the decoration of the castle or putting up tinsel, he said Peeves had got the other end and was trying to strangle him.

When watching over first and second years, he would complain that they were cheeky little snotrags, and he was definitely not that rude when he was in first year.

While patrolling with Filch, Ron's evaluation of him was that the guy had dung for brains, and ...

Chapter 1004: Continued Probation

No one knew how Angelina did it, but she finally convinced that little girl to temporarily abandon the Charm Club and join Quidditch training. Perhaps she felt that it was time to do something for Gryffindor.

As a result, all members of the Gryffindor team except Ron were girls, which was unprecedented in Hogwarts! Fortunately, amidst the misfortune, the girls' performance was quite good. (TN/ Vicky Frobisher had been introduced as a boy in former chapters; and now as a girl, which is h...

Chapter 1003: The Old Dominators

"You shouldn't know these things," said Sirius. "However, judging by the looks of the four of you, if I don't say anything, you won't agree and will end up speculating here. So, I'll just say a bit. We had another confrontation here with Death Eaters and vampires … destroyed their magical altar used for sacrifices. Dumbledore said it was used to collect blood and flesh, identical to the ancient altar set up by fallen Centaurs in the Albanian forest."

"You mean …?" Evan had a bad pre...

Chapter 1002: N.E.W.T.s Class

"What she’s doing to you is really unfair. You're not even a fifth-year student, and you can't hear the content the professors cover for the O.W.L. exams in class. How does she expect you to review?" said Hermione. "Besides, you don't even have a wand at the moment, and there are many subjects you can't revise without it. She's doing this on purpose."

From this perspective, Umbridge was indeed very vicious. Confiscating Evan's wand and then giving him a chance to participate in an exa...

Chapter 1001: Taking the OWLs exam

"You want to confiscate Evan’s wand? You can't do that!" Everyone present was shocked, including Professor McGonagall.

"This is the authority given to me by the Ministry of Magic. I have the right to do this while he is at Hogwarts, and I must do so," said Umbridge, smiling happily. "I know you need some time to accept this … difficult punishment, but please trust me; it is necessary, both for your personal well-being and the well-being of those around you. Therefore, I hope to see ...

Chapter 1000!

Hello everyone, I trust you're all doing fantastic. 

Just yesterday, I released chapter 1000, and I'm still grappling with the reality of it! The milestone felt distant for the longest period, but now that we're here, I owe it all to you. Your continuous support, both past and present, was what allowed me to reach this point, and for that, I'm very grateful.

The translation of this novel has been an exhilarating journey. Not only did it challenge my comp...

Chapter 1000: Umbridge’s Punishment

They didn’t feel complacent for long. Soon, Professor McGonagall and Snape rushed over.

Professor McGonagall merely waved her wand and undid Evan's Transfiguration, but perhaps intentionally, she didn't lift the spell on Umbridge. Instead, like the others, she went up and stomped hard on Umbridge's foot, and Dolores hurriedly retreated.

Then, with Hermione's reminder, and looking as though surprised, she changed her back.

"Dolores, I didn't realize it was you!" Professor M...

Chapter 999: Give her a few kicks

Just at that moment, Harry heard a snort from behind him and turned around, still holding the Snitch tightly in his hand.

Draco Malfoy had landed close by; white-faced with fury, he was still managing to sneer.

Because of his father's advice, since the beginning of this term, he had been very restrained and low-key compared to before, trying not to bother Evan and Harry, but now he didn’t care. Harry catching the Snitch right in front of him infuriated him.

“Saved Weasle...

Chapter 998: Win the game

Bletchley, the Slytherin Keeper, had saved the goal; he threw the Quaffle to Warrington who sped off with it, zigzagging in between Alicia and Katie; the singing from below grew louder and louder as he drew nearer and nearer Ron — Weasley is our king.

There were bursts of high-pitched screams and louder and louder singing, and the atmosphere reached its peak.

Weasley is our King,

He always lets the Quaffle in,

Weasley is our King.<...

Chapter 997: Weasley is Our King

A few minutes later, the stands were all full, and Hagrid also came to the stands to cheer for Gryffindor.

His inspection results had not yet come out. Although he had prepared for the worst, he still bravely stuck to his teaching plan. In the eyes of others, Umbridge was too bullying, but Hagrid didn't care.

He also persuaded Hermione to calm down. What Umbridge did that day was generally understood by people towards half-giants.

They were still at Hogwarts and were not awa...

Chapter 996: Slytherin's Beaters

“How’re you feeling?” Ginny asked Ron. "Everything all right?"

He was now staring into the dregs of milk at the bottom of his empty cereal bowl as though seriously considering attempting to drown himself in them.

"He's just a little nervous," said Harry. "… Been nervous for quite a while."

“Well, that’s a good sign, I never feel you perform as well in exams if you’re not a bit nervous,” said Hermione heartily.

"Dear, I'm looking forward to your performa...

Chapter 995: The Game Begins

At the same time, Snape was no less obviously partisan: He had booked the Quidditch pitch for Slytherin practice so often that the Gryffindors had difficulty getting on it to play.

He was also turning a deaf ear to the many reports of Slytherin attempts to hex Gryffindor players in the corridors. When Alicia Spinnet turned up in the hospital wing with her eyebrows growing so thick and fast that they obscured her vision and obstructed her mouth, Snape insisted that she must have attempte...

Chapter 994: The Forthcoming Game

Magic, as an ancient system, had evolved extensively from the era of the Titans to the peak of the divine age, through the fall of deities, the subversion of the Magic Era, and the darkness of the Middle Ages. It had developed comprehensively up to the present day, making it difficult to bring about improvements.

Moreover, the overall level of magic underwent a reverse development; the more modern the society, the lower the magical potency.

In contrast to magic, Muggle technology ...

Chapter 993: The Two-Way Mirror on the Coin

Hermione’s idea was fantastic, and Evan thought it could be further improved to make the functions of these “gold coins” more complete.

Using Galleons as props for communication was for the sake of concealment, to avoid being discovered. But if the only function was to "change the numerals on top,” it was just too simple!

After Evan’s improvements, only the person wearing it could enter the Room of Requirement.

Now, in addition to being able to communicate with eac...

Chapter 992: Protective Measures and Confidentiality

“Er … yeah … good stuff abou’ Thestrals," Hagrid was a little incoherent. "Well, once they’re tamed, like this lot, yeh’ll never be lost again. ‘Mazin’ senses o’ direction, jus’ tell ’em where yeh want ter go..."

"Assuming they can understand you, of course," a burst of laughter broke out from the Slytherin crowd.

Umbridge smiled indulgently at them and then turned to Neville.

“You can see the Thestrals, Longbottom, can you?" she asked.

"Yeah!" ...

Chapter 991: Woo woo woo

No matter how to look at it, that place was perfect for Grawp to use as his lair.

According to Hagrid's character and past practices, he might even find a mate for Grawp.

Fall in love, mate, reproduce, fall in love again, mate again, and reproduce again.

Just like this, in a few decades, a brand new tribe of giants would appear in the forest near Hogwarts...

Following this topic, Evan hoped Hagrid would help him find a few animals as fighting practice objects, includin...

Chapter 990: Return and Persuasion

"Alrigh’ then, what exactly happened at Hogwarts? Can someone explain it ter me?" Hagrid didn't dwell on Animagus, but Harry and Ron looked enviously at Evan and Hermione.

Especially Ron, unlike Harry, it was the first time for him to see Evan and Hermione transform; and it was truly amazing!

They had been squeezed into the corner like a sandwich just now, and almost caught when Umbridge passed in front of them.

If they could transform into cats, they could easily fool Umb...

Chapter 989: Tossing and Turning in the Cauldron

There was a pause in which Hagrid stared at her with his newly uncovered eye, as if he was thinking about how to answer this question.

Evan and Sirius had told Hagrid about this before, and he hoped Hagrid could still remember it.

They had gone to Beauxbatons for an exchange. Hagrid was instructed not to deviate from the information provided to the Ministry and certainly not to mention anything about giants.

Because he was too focused on Hagrid's answer, Evan’s grip weaken...

Chapter 988: Shadow And Snow

"It's her!"

"Hurry up, get under the Invisibility Cloak, don't let her see us here."

"Who’s outside? What's goin’ on with yeh four?" Hagrid asked in surprise.

“Get under here!" Harry said quickly; seizing the Invisibility Cloak he whirled it over himself and Ron, and they huddled into the corner of the room.

Evan and Hermione also retreated to another corner, donned the Invisibility Cloak, and hid among a pile of sundry boxes.

Fang was barking madly at the ...

Chapter 987: Dragon Meat

"Hagrid, where’s that giant? Your brother, the guy named Grawp?" Harry demanded, while Fang danced around them all, trying to lick their faces.

"Oh, Evan told yeh, did he?!" Hagrid tried his best to say in a pleasant tone, the sound of burning wood emanating from the fireplace. "I just settled him in the woods, ‘bout halfway from here, told him not to roam too much. I plan to help him build a home tomorrow. If you're willin’ to lend a hand, yeh can come over,”

After hearin...

Chapter 986: Hagrid is back

Despite this, the Shield Charm was still a practical introductory spell.

Learning the Shield Charm meant that wizards had basic protection in combat, preventing them from being instantly knocked down by enemies. In addition to this, Evan also planned to teach them the Full Body-Bind Curse, giving them basic offensive capabilities.

Expelliarmus, Protego and Petrificus Totalus were known as the three major introductory spells. Mastering all of them would allow them to engage in real...

Chapter 985: Training in progress

“Don’t mind her,” Cho muttered, looking at Evan apologetically, “She doesn’t really want to be here but I made her come with me. Her parents have forbidden her to do anything that might upset Umbridge, you see — her mum works for the Ministry.”

"Oh!" Evan nodded. It was normal for Marietta to have such concerns.

Despite Evan repeatedly stating that their primary goal wasn't to overthrow the Ministry of Magic, many people were dissatisfied with Umbridge and the Minist...

Chapter 984: The First Practice

In addition, students in fifth year and above had been introduced to nonverbal spells.

This was a skill that must be mastered in the Ordinary Wizarding Levels examination, and it was also a very practical dueling skill. Evan encouraged them to practice the Disarming Charm using this skill.

Then, everyone started to form their own teams. Predictably, Neville was left partnerless, and Harry volunteered to help him practice.

"Right … on the count of three, then!" Evan shouted...

Chapter 983: Earth Defense Force

"What are we going to do next?" Colin asked, knowing that Evan and Hermione had been preparing for a long time.

"Now that we have a leader and a name, shouldn't the next step be to determine the purpose of the organization?"

"Of course, it's to learn magic, resist Umbridge and the Ministry of Magic!"

"Not exactly!" said Evan. "As I said just now, we do not intend to fight or conspire against the Ministry of Magic. We’re not that kind of organization. Our main purpose is to...

Chapter 982: Dumbledore’s Army

"What are these?" asked Dean from the rear of the room, indicating the Sneakoscopes, the Secrecy Sensors and the Foe-Glass.

“Dark Detectors and magic traps, they can detect hidden enemies and warn us in advance, but these are outdated styles!" said Evan, gazing into the cracked Foe-Glass for a while; shadowy figures were moving around inside it, though none was recognizable. "There’s also this Foe-Glass. Basically they all show when Dark wizards or enemies are around, but you don’...

Happy New Year!

Hello everyone, I hope you're all doing fantastic.

I wanted to take a moment to wish you all a Happy New Year, and most importantly, express my heartfelt thanks.

Over the course of the past few months, the translation of this novel got back on track, and this month, we're getting past chapter 1000! That's a milestone I wouldn't have reached if not for your support, and for that, I'm eternally grateful. ♥

So once again, I hope you have a fantastic new year...

Chapter 981: The Magical Room of Requirement

Meanwhile, Evan and Hermione were holding the Marauder's Map in the dimly lit corridor on the seventh floor.

The map showed the entire Hogwarts, with tiny moving black dots, labeled with names, showing where various people were.

The core of the Marauder's Map operation was Name Magic, where each person's name inherently possessed magical properties.

This kind of magic was not visible, but it was real, much like how zodiac signs or blood types could subtly influence a person....

Chapter 980: Reading Mind

"What did Dumbledore do?" Ron asked in a hushed voice.

"I don't know, but Voldemort was furious. I'm sure it had something to do with those vampires, and his plan was thwarted!" Harry said, carefully recalling the scene he saw in his head, and something vaguely appeared, but it was unclear.

"How do you know then?" Ron asked nervously. "About him being angry, I mean."

Harry shook his head and covered his eyes with his hands, pressing down upon them with his palms. Little star...
