save the bachelors

Chapter 4138 4140 [Promoted to Headmaster]

At the end of June, Xiang Nan and others successfully completed their fourth year studies and returned to London on the Hogwarts Express.

In order to protect the Hogwarts Express, the Ministry of Magic also specially dispatched Aurors to guard each carriage to prevent attacks by Death Eaters, werewolves, trolls, etc.

Fortunately, everything was fine. Xiang Nan and the others arrived at the station smoothly, then went to the Leaky Cauldron and used the Floo powder to return home.

"I'm glad you're back safely." Irene said while hugging her son.

Things have been very turbulent outside recently, with Voldemort, Death Eaters, werewolves, trolls, vampires...she couldn't help but worry.

"Mom, don't worry, the Death Eaters dare not attack the Hogwarts Express." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"That's hard to say." Irene waved her hand and said, "What they did was really too evil. Grindelwald's witch party is much kinder than them."

Although Grindelwald launched a global wizarding war, during which many wizards and Muggles died, Grindelwald and the Witch Party would not massacre ordinary wizards.

But Voldemort and the Death Eaters like to torture and kill Muggles and Muggle-born wizards. They do it not for the sake of killing, but just for fun.

So in terms of the degree of evil, Voldemort and the Death Eaters are far superior to Grindelwald and the Witch Party.

"Don't worry, even if they come, I can protect myself." Xiang Nan took out his wand and said, he was eager to fight with the Death Eaters.

"Don't be silly, you are no match for them." Irene said quickly.

"Don't worry, I'm just talking." Seeing her worried face, Xiang Nan also smiled quickly.

In fact, he was not afraid of the Death Eaters, and he was not even afraid of Voldemort.

Because Voldemort knows magic, he knows it now, but he doesn't know martial arts.

Now the only thing Xiang Nan fears about Voldemort is his Horcrux.

If we can't destroy his Horcruxes, Voldemort will come back even after his death, just like an indestructible cockroach, which is disgusting.

Xiang Nan plans to look for his Horcrux after he graduates.

When all five pieces are gathered, Voldemort will die.

……

In July, the attacks outside continued unabated.

Every few days the newspapers reported news about the murders of wizards and Muggles. Either Muggles were massacred or wizards were ravaged.

Although the Ministry of Magic sent Aurors to plug the leaks everywhere, there was no effect.

The killing and destruction continued, and people gradually lost hope.

Before, people thought that the Ministry of Magic’s attitude was not tough enough and allowed Voldemort and the Death Eaters to wreak havoc, which was why they were so arrogant and domineering.

As long as the Minister of Magic is replaced and the appeasers are changed to hardliners, then clowns like Voldemort and the Death Eaters can be swept away like fallen leaves in the wind.

But now the new Minister of Magic has been in office for half a year, and has taken a lot of tough measures. Even the Aurors are working overtime every day to hunt down Voldemort, Death Eaters, werewolves, trolls, and vampires.

Although it is not completely useless, it does not play a big role.

From this, people saw the incompetence of the Ministry of Magic and realized that even if a new minister was appointed, it would be impossible to reverse the situation. Therefore, people naturally became more and more disappointed and fearful.

……

In order to prevent their home from being attacked, Irene and Xiang Nan specially set up a protective spell at home, which can not only prevent wizards from invading, but also issue an alarm in time if someone invades.

In addition, Irene also helped Lily's family to set up a protective spell to protect the safety of their family of four. Robin, Mary, and Penny were all a little worried.

They originally thought that their daughter becoming a wizard was a very interesting thing, but they didn't expect that the wizarding world was so terrifying and much more chaotic than the Muggle world.

If they had known this, they would not have let their daughter go to school.

"How about we not go to school?" Robin discussed with Lily.

"Uncle, Hogwarts is the safest place. It is protected by countless ancient magics and is guarded by the most powerful wizard in the world, Albus Dumbledore. Nothing will happen." Xiang Nan explained.

"On the contrary, it would be really dangerous for her to stay at home. They specialize in killing wizards from Muggle families. If she stays at home, no one can protect her. Even if the police guard your house 24 hours a day, they can't stop those people." Xiang Nan explained, "They have plenty of ways to enter your house and kill Lily. So she can only go to Hogwarts, and she is safest there."

"How could this be..." Robin was a little overwhelmed.

Mary also felt guilty.

Penny was also worried about her sister.

A few years ago, she was jealous of her sister's talent, but was later persuaded by Xiang Nan and stopped being jealous.

But in the past two years, seeing Xiang Nan's family getting rich because of magic, she gradually became jealous. But now she no longer thinks so.

It turns out that magic is not only fun, but also dangerous and terrifying, and can kill you at any time. She really doesn't want to learn magic at all, and she wants to stay as far away from it as possible.

……

In mid-July, Xiang Nan received a letter from Dumbledore.

His wolfsbane potion has been tested and has indeed helped werewolves stay sane after transforming on a full moon night.

This proves that his wolfsbane potion was successful and is truly effective.

Dumbledore congratulated him and said that if Xiang Nan agreed, he would recommend him to "Practical Potions Master".

This is the most authoritative potion publication in the wizarding world. Only the most advanced potion papers can be published in this journal.

It is really incredible that Xiang Nan, who is still a fourth-grade student, can develop such a magic potion and publish it in such a journal.

Xiang Nan naturally would not refuse Dumbledore's kindness. He immediately wrote to Dumbledore, expressing his willingness to publish his formula in "Practical Potion Master".

……

In August, Xiang Nan and Lili received a notice from the school, informing them of the books they needed to prepare for the new semester and the start date of the school.

They were also promoted to male and female class leaders respectively and received corresponding badges.

Lily's badge is a lion representing Gryffindor, with alternating colors of gold and red, and a capital "P" in the middle, which stands for the English initials of the prefect (praepostor).

Xiang Nan's badge is an eagle representing Ravenclaw, with alternating colors of bronze and blue, and a capital "P" in the middle.

Irene was very happy to see her son become a prefect.

"This is the first step to success. Maybe in the future I'll become the president of the boy and girl student union, and then successfully work in the Ministry of Magic. Maybe even become the Minister of Magic." She said excitedly.

She was not able to become the prefect of Slytherin, which was a great regret for her. Unexpectedly, her son helped her realize her wish. Being the prefect of Ravenclaw is not something that ordinary people can do.

Xiang Nan didn't have the heart to crush her dream, but he didn't want to be the Minister of Magic at all. The Minister of Magic had little power and a lot of trouble, so he was too lazy to do it.
