Practice makes perfect, and everything depends on your own perception.

That was probably his idea.

But at this moment, a horrible screech of pain pierced the air above the Great Hall.

Everybody looked around, terrified, to see Susan Bones of Hufflepuff wobbling in her hoop with her left leg still standing five feet away where she...

The Death Eaters were no different, filled with suspicion and distrust. Each one was constantly scheming, fighting for their own goals and interests.

There were only a few Death Eaters who were truly loyal to Voldemort. In fact, Voldemort himself likely didn’t trust his own followers.

But for now, it was best to focus on the Apparitio...

Chapter 1425: Apparition Lesson

In any case, Harry's performance in Potions class would help them get the memory from Slughorn.

They thought so, but in reality it was almost useless. As soon as Harry brought up Horcruxes according to their plan, Slughorn reacted like a perpetually startled rabbit — no, more like a startled seal. And that emotion quickly escalated into seal rage...

Everyone should be able to imagine what seal rage looks like, right? Well, go ahead and picture it.

Harry was a little surpri...

Harry helplessly flipped through the Half-Blood Prince’s book, hoping to find something to save the situation.

And there it was, scrawled right across a long list of antidotes:

Just shove a bezoar down their throats.

Bezoar?!

Harry stared at these words for a moment. Hadn’t he once, long ago, heard of bezoars?

“Settle down, settle down, please!" Slughorn walked up to his desk. "Before we knew it, the happy Christmas holiday has passed. I hope you haven't had too much fun and forgotten your studies because this term, we’ve got lots of work to get through. Now, Golpalott’s Third Law ... who can tell me — ? But Miss Granger can, of course!"

"Whether it was his first since he killed the Riddles, I do not know, but I think it was. This time, as you will have seen, he killed not for revenge, but for gain," said Dumbledore. "He wanted the two fabulous trophies that poor, besotted, old woman showed him. Just as he had once robbed the other children at his orphanage, just as he had stolen h...

This discovery indicated that after leaving Hogwarts, Voldemort had already begun modifying his own body.

He experimented on himself with various forbidden Dark Magic to make himself stronger.

Voldemort was neither the first nor the last Dark wizard to go to such extremes for the sake of gaining immense dark power.

There had been ...

Evan watched Hepzibah intently. Was she going to take out the Golden Cup?!

Helga Hufflepuff's Golden Cup, Dumbledore had specifically told him to pay close attention to it.

During his two previous trips back to Hogwarts a thousand years ago, Evan had seen this cup up close. It had sat on Helga Hufflepuff’s desk. He also knew that it w...

Chapter 1419: The Golden Cup

"Anyway, Armando rejected Voldemort's application to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts," said Dumbledore. "After his application was rejected, he went off to Borgin and Burkes, and all the staff who had admired him said what a waste it was, a brilliant young wizard like that, working in a shop. However, Voldemort was no mere assistant. Polite and handsome and clever, he was soon given particular jobs of the type that only exist in a place like Borgin and Burkes, which specializes, as you bo...

Evan perked up — information about the homeland of the house-elves!

According to the timeline, Riddle should have graduated from Hogwarts by now. While at school, due to Dumbledore's close watch, there were many things he didn’t dare or couldn’t do. Especially after the Chamber of Secrets incident, he knew he had once again aroused Du...

Tsk, tsk. That tone didn’t sound like something Slughorn would say to Riddle at all.

In other words, aside from hiding an important portion of the memory, Slughorn had also tampered with and fabricated the second half of this memory.

A few seconds later, the three of them returned to Dumbledore's office again.

Harry looked som...

Chapter 1416: Slughorn's Memory

Like Harry, Evan also looked at Dumbledore curiously, wondering what he meant by saying that the ring had other uses.

This ring was a special Horcrux. Evan knew why it was special, but he was not sure about its other uses. Was it related to the spell on Dumbledore's right hand?!

Without thinking too much, the answer was yes. Dumbledore's right hand could not have become like this for no reason.

So, what about the things related to this ring?

Evan quickly thought back ...

Chapter 1415: The Special Horcrux and Memories

The vicious events caused by the opening of the Chamber of Secrets completely changed the fate of three people.

The first one was Moaning Myrtle, who died in that incident. The second was Hagrid, who was wrongly accused and expelled from Hogwarts. He was sent to Azkaban, his wand was broken, and his father died of grief. His life changed drastically.

Finally, there was the mastermind of the incident, Tom Riddle.

Strictly speaking, Voldemort's first Horcrux, "Riddle's Diary",...

"Sir, have you found the location of the house-elves' homeland?" Evan asked.

During the past Christmas holidays, he had looked through so much material but still had no clue, but Dumbledore had much more information than he did, so he would definitely find a way.

Since Dumbledore brought it up on his own initiative, there must be a clue...

Time passed quickly as they discussed Apparition.

Soon, it was time for Evan and Harry to go for their lesson with Dumbledore.

This time, Dumbledore had specifically told them to come earlier, so they arrived an hour and a half earlier than usual.

At 6:30 in the evening, the two arrived at the Headmaster’s office.

Chapter 1412: Apparition Lessons

On the last day of the holidays, students returned to Hogwarts one after another, and the castle became lively again.

Although the current situation was worrying, this time, the Christmas holidays ended without incident and every student returned on time.

The brief separation made everyone feel a sense of warmth when they saw each other again.

In the common room, Neville, Colin and everyone talked about the interesting things that happened during their holidays.

Soon, ...

Scrimgeour's requests were entirely one-sided — he wanted Evan and Harry to help him create the impression that the situation was still under the Ministry's control, but he refused to accept any of Evan's suggestions and had nothing to offer in exchange.

At least, in Evan's opinion, there was nothing in the current Ministry that could imp...

Chapter 1410: Unequal Exchange

"So basically, you’d like to give the impression that we’re working for the Ministry?" asked Harry.

At this point in the conversation, he finally understood Scrimgeour's true intentions.

The other party hoped to have him and Evan speak for the Ministry and change the Wizarding community’s perception of it, as if they were mascots that would bring good luck.

“It would give everyone a lift to think you were more involved," said Scrimgeour eagerly, sounding relieved tha...

Evan didn't interrupt either. He knew the content of the prophecy, but this prophecy was about Harry after all.

Whether to tell the other party and how to tell it should be decided by Harry himself.

"You've talked to Dumbledore about these things, I suppose?" said Harry at last.

“Yes, we did, but he wouldn’t tell me the full p...

Chapter 1408: The Minister's Intention

"Evan, why don’t you take a stroll with me around the yard? Let's talk about the medal. Don't mind me, Arthur, Molly, I don't want to butt in, especially since I heard from Percy that he hasn't been back in a long time. You can catch up with him," Scrimgeour continued, "Oh, and if possible, I'd also like to learn more about the current situation at Hogwarts. As you know, my predecessor made many confused decisions last year, including sending a High Inquisitor to Hogwarts, which made the sc...

Chapter 1407: Order of Merlin, First Class

"Come in, please come in, Minister!" fluttered Mrs. Weasley, straightening her hat. "It's an honor to have you here. Please sit down, have a little purkey, or some tooding. ... I mean —"

In her excitement she pronounced the words turkey and pudding incorrectly, turning them into purkey and tooding.

"No, no, my dear Molly," said Scrimgeour with a smile, his eyes looking around the table, nodding kindly to everyone. “I don’t want to intrude, wouldn’t be here at all if Percy ...

Chapter 1406: Christmas and Visiting

In the dark doorway, the girl curled up on the steps, humming a ballad softly.

It was a ballad from Norway, with a slow melody that carried a faint trace of sorrow.

Coupled with Elaine’s uniquely slightly husky voice, it felt as if one were being drawn into a beautiful painting.

Unfortunately, Elaine didn't remember the lyrics and could only hum. She loved singing, but couldn't remember the lyrics of any song.

Hermione and Ginny were much better than her in this rega...

At the strong request of Scrimgeour and the Ministry of Magic, Evan and Harry could not leave their line of surveillance now.

Therefore, they had no way to go to the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. This was one of the main reasons why Evan finally decided not to go home this Christmas. He didn't want his home to be monitored and pro...

Chapter 1404: Rely on Yourself

"What about Stan Shunpike?" asked Hermione. “They’re not still holding him, are they?"

“I’m afraid so. I know Dumbledore’s tried appealing directly to Scrimgeour about Stan..." said Mr. Weasley. "Anybody who has actually interviewed him agrees that it's impossible he's a Death Eater. In fact, anyone with a normal level of intelligence knows he isn’t. But he really shouldn’t have said those things at a time like this. I think it’s necessary to teach him a little lesson. T...

However, judging from the photos that Evan received, Gabrielle was actually about the same height as Elaine.

Based on this, it could be inferred that Fleur’s statement should not be tenable, because Elaine was definitely not a young lady.

In addition, Fleur also told them that Gabrielle had previously wanted to apply to study at Hogwa...

Evan read very slowly, fearing that he might accidentally miss something.

Searching for information in such materials was truly a torment, especially since he couldn't even be sure whether there was any record of a homeland of house-elves.

Beside him, Harry and Ron had once again started discussing the conversation they had overheard la...

The concept of this house-elf demon was completely non-mainstream among the house-elves today.

Even Dobby, who was forward-thinking and always pursuing freedom, was not as bold as him.

Hermione, on the other hand, kept nodding her head. Some of his views aligned with her own beliefs.

She did not support waging war, but the house-e...

Not a request, but a command.

The fiery lasso tightened, drawing in closer and closer. The trapped house-elf demon let out a sharp, agonized scream.

Though Dumbledore’s flames left no visible burns on his body, he writhed and convulsed, looking very painful, uncomfortable, and cruelly tortured.

For a moment, Evan, Harry, Hermion...

A pale blue glow pulsed rhythmically, and with each complete flash, a surge of icy cold was released.

The cold air met the surrounding air, stirring up a large amount of white mist, which quickly spread around.

Even with the protection of magic, Evan could still feel a chill coming towards him.

At this moment, everything in the wh...

Chapter 1398: The Demon Altar

Harry glared at Dumbledore in seething silence. He didn't understand why Dumbledore reacted like this? Did this mean that Dumbledore had indeed ordered Snape to find out what Malfoy was doing, in which case he had already heard everything Harry had just told him from Snape? Or was he really worried by what he had heard, but pretending not to be?

“So, sir,” said Harry, in what he hoped was a polite, calm voice, “you definitely still trust — ?"

"Well, Harry, I have been tole...
