Natural Magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 298 Multiple reports
Snape gritted his teeth. He could not accept the fact that Harry was a Horcrux because he could not tolerate the death of Lily's child...

Dumbledore would definitely kill Harry!

He can't accept it!
"Is there anything you can do? No matter how hateful Potter is, he still can't die..." Snape said almost from his teeth.

When it fell into Bri's ears, he heard the meaning of prayer.

"Professor Snape, all I can say is that if Voldemort's main soul dies, then Harry's sleeping split-soul consciousness will wake up and resurrect Voldemort."

Snape frowned after hearing Bree's words.

Dumbledore would not tolerate Voldemort's existence.

Seeing Snape's slightly silent look, Bree understood that Snape was holding back because he did not want Voldemort to die.

Also, Snape never seemed to think that killing Voldemort, his greatest resistance was betrayal.

Snape was a double agent, as was evident from Dumbledore's actions.

It was Dumbledore who fished out Snape, who was almost certainly a Death Eater.

And Snape also became a professor at Hogwarts. Dumbledore would not put a Death Eater in this position.

Bree continued: "Actually, there is another way, which is what Dumbledore has been doing."

After hearing Bree's words, Snape looked at Bree intently, waiting for the next words.

"If Voldemort kills Harry with his own hands, he can also kill his own ghost at the same time."

Snape frowned.

"Potter will die too."

"Dumbledore wants Harry and Voldemort to die together!" Snape's eyes were cold, and he squeezed the guardrail with his hands, cracking his knuckles.

"As long as there is a way to make Harry immune to this death, we can only let the ghost die. But this is Dumbledore's matter. I won't bother. Of course, I know that you will also be involved."

Snape was silent, he had no good solution.

"If Voldemort is not allowed to die, then what's in Potter's head..."

Snape lowered his head, escaping once more.

What nonsense was this? Snape laughed at himself.

Voldemort has included Harry on his must-kill list, and Snape is not even sure how to guarantee his future if he protects Harry until he reaches adulthood.

Snape left, because Bree stopped talking, and he could only think about the present, he had to teach Harry Occlumency.

Damn, this technique isn't that easy to teach.

……

An official from the Ministry of Magic carefully left Hogwarts Castle. Bree watched from a distance and asked Nagini to follow him.

And here, Brie looked at the people who still knew nothing and frowned slightly.

When did Voldemort's power become so blatant?

Today, Fudge is also here. It stands to reason that he would not come into contact with members of the Death Eaters so soon...

Bree shifted her gaze and condensed slightly.

It turned out to be Umbridge, and this guy snuck out after her.

"Snape doesn't know how to do things like her." Bree smiled, it seemed like there was going to be big news soon.

……

Blake's old house——

"Arthur, how are you, Arthur!" Sirius and Lupine rushed to the Black Mansion after receiving Dumbledore's message.

"Ugh..." Arthur Weasley leaned against the corner of the hall, his body covered in blood, and there were several members of the Order of the Phoenix lying around him.

"Sirius!" On the other side, several members of the Order of the Phoenix were less injured. They surrounded Arthur and the others to prevent the Death Eaters from attacking.

The hall was full of traces of magic battles. Portraits fell on all sides, seats flew off, and the crystal chandeliers on the ceiling fell and scattered all around.

There was debris on the ground.

Sirius stepped on the debris on the ground and made a squeaking sound——

"Don't come here, we have to make sure you are Sirius Black first!" one of the Order members shouted.

Just now they were deceived by the Death Eaters who drank the compound potion, so they were attacked.

Sirius and Lupine stopped quickly.

They raised their hands.

"Wait, we have to make sure they are members of the Order of the Phoenix." Lupine said.

"Don't be so vigilant." Dumbledore suddenly appeared with the phoenix.

"Dumbledore!"

"Mister Dumbledore!"

The people of the Order of the Phoenix exhaled. With Phoenix and Dumbledore here, there would be no problem.

"Sir, come and see Arthur and the others. They were attacked by Death Eaters and were seriously injured."

"We were worried that the Death Eaters would intercept us, so we only gave them simple treatment."

Dumbledore walked quickly to Arthur and the others. Arthur's body was covered with split cuts and the blood had been stopped, otherwise he might not have been able to wait for Dumbledore's arrival.

The wet pool of blood on the ground made Dumbledore frown.

"How long have the Death Eaters been away? I was near London before..."

"Ten minutes, sir." The man from the Order of the Phoenix said matter-of-factly.

Dumbledore nodded, the suspicion in his eyes growing.

"This is not the number one target for Death Eaters." Dumbledore sighed.

"Let's take Arthur and the others to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies first."

After Dumbledore finished speaking, he summoned the Phoenix and asked it to take the injured members of the Order of the Phoenix to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

At this time, a magic wave suddenly came from the portrait that fell on the ground.

It was Phineas Nigellus Black, the former Headmaster of Hogwarts.

After his death, it became one of the portraits in the principal's office.

Still working for Dumbledore, McGonagall handed over the right to command them to Dumbledore.

"Phineas, what happened?" Dumbledore asked.

"Gringotts is under attack by Death Eaters, Dumbledore!"

"what!"

……

"Oops, Minister Fudge, Gringotts in Diagon Alley was attacked by Death Eaters!"

"what!"

Fudge, who was talking to teachers from other schools at Hogwarts, suddenly exclaimed.

He ignored the reactions of the people around him and immediately said to the Auror who came to report, "Are you sure he's from the UK?"

The Auror nodded.

"Just now, Death Eaters attacked the Black Mansion at 12 Grimmauld Place."

Fudge looked panicked and looked to the side. At this time, the Auror captain also looked nervous.

"Quickly, let the Auror pass, Gringotts can't make any mistakes!"

Gringotts is the economic lifeline of the British wizarding world. If there is a big loss, Fudge's position will be over. Those wizards who have savings in Gringotts can put him on the fire and burn him to death.

"boom!"

At this time, a huge roar sounded from the Black Lake of Hogwarts.

……

Black lake, abyss-like water.

The moonlight was cold, falling through the lake in the cold wind.

"Cuckoo..."

In the black lake, huge bubbles surged up and blew away in the silent undercurrent. White flowers disappeared one after another, until a black mist drifted in and broke the order here.

"Whoosh..." The black human-shaped mist rushed into the bottom of the lake with bubbles, seeming to be looking for something.

And when the black mist penetrated deep into the black lake, Nagini followed closely behind him...

"Jie..." The black mist made an unruly sound.

"Nagini, long time no see..."

Arriving at the top of the Black Lake, the statue of Ravenclaw was still standing, but at this time the crown on it disappeared.

"It seems that Oded didn't take it. That's right. He might be willing to let me get the Horcrux."

Voldemort's voice sounded next to Nagini, and soon he appeared in the black mist.

"Dumbledore went to Diagon Alley, and I arrived at Hogwarts... You were so rude that you didn't invite me to the party."

Voldemort was in a very different state at this time. His face still looked like a snake, but his skin no longer had snake scales and was no longer blue-grey. It had the ruddy color of a normal person.

"Hiss." Riddle...Voldemort...

Voldemort was startled when he heard Nagini's voice, and then he laughed.

"Please call me Voldemort."

"I'm glad that the former lady has woken up again. I have to admit that Oude is a genius and he also likes to bring irrational people back on track."

Voldemort's eyes flickered.

"Please tell Ode that I am grateful to him for awakening my sanity, and also tell him that he has unleashed a real demon..."

Voldemort turned into a ball of black mist, swept towards Ravenclaw's statue, intending to destroy it.

"bump!"

"boom!"

A huge roar came from the black lake, the statue of Ravenclaw shattered and collapsed, and the chains that trapped the mountain were broken, but there was no sound at the bottom of the mountain, and the dragon that had been suppressed seemed to be dead...

The Black Lake calmed down after a brief shock.

Voldemort said dissatisfiedly: "Very good, it seems someone has made arrangements in advance."

Voldemort looked at the Hogwarts Castle reflected in the distance above his head. The lights flickered, and he could vaguely see a large number of wizards running out to check.

"Goodbye, Nagini."

Nagini didn't answer, and it could only let Voldemort leave. Bree only let it check, not stop it.

As the black mist rushed out of the Black Lake, Umbridge, who was waiting eagerly on the shore, hurriedly said: "Dear Sir."

Umbridge was trembling and excited.

It had never occurred to her to do so, but when Voldemort approached her, she offered no resistance.

"Now, fire your magic at me and drive away the Death Eaters."

Umbridge also heard the sound of the castle coming, and she immediately raised her wand as she still had some intelligence.

"Smashed to pieces!"

As soon as Voldemort dodged, several curses rushed out of him and hit Umbridge's surroundings, creating a chaotic battlefield here.

Umbridge was coughing in the flying dust, and the wizard who came behind her could only see the black fog going away and the embarrassed Umbridge.

"I stopped him, but I didn't expect Death Eaters to sneak into the party."

Umbridge spoke first.

Fudge's expression darkened, but Umbridge's next words made his expression change again.

"It's the gentleman brought by Mr. Malfoy. I think the Department of International Magical Cooperation should investigate it!" Umbridge looked at Lucius who was coming and said harshly.

Mag and the deans looked at each other and frowned.

Umbridge looked arrogant, as if she had won a battle.

"I saw someone sneaking out. As a professor at Hogwarts and the senior investigator of the Ministry of Magic, I have the right to find out the reason."

"That man jumped into the Black Lake and caused chaos. I stopped him and beat him away!"

No one cared whether this was true or not, but Fudge seemed to have found a breakthrough.

"Umbridge from the Ministry of Magic beat away the Death Eaters and stopped them from doing evil in Hogwarts. Very good!" Fudge smiled and walked up to commend Umbridge, making Umbridge even more proud. .

"I'll give Umbridge a reward soon."

……

Nagini crawled to Bree's feet.

"Hiss, hiss..." Sir, it's Voldemort...

Nagini told Bree what Voldemort was doing under the Black Lake.

"Nagini, go find Tom to find out the situation." Bree put Nagini in her notes and teleported it to Tom, and then quietly followed the double play between Fudge and Umbridge.

It wasn't until McGonagall became impatient and some wizards retreated to the castle that Bree stepped forward and said, "I think we should understand the situation in Gringotts now instead of changing the focus."

Bree revealed Fudge's thoughts with one word.

Fudge was stunned.

At this time, the Aurors had been sent to Gringotts by him. If it weren't for Umbridge's action, he would have left Hogwarts long ago.

However, he had served as Minister of Magic for many years and soon changed his mentality.

"Hogwarts is no small matter. Young wizards are the future of the wizarding world, and they are more important than Gringotts."

Fudge made a secret decision about this matter, and at the same time his expression softened a lot. At least he found an excuse about Gringotts.

and……

Fudge glanced around, but he didn't see Dumbledore, so according to his sources, Dumbledore was probably still working on his Order of the Phoenix.

He knew that Black's old house at 12 Grimmauld Place was the resident of the Order of the Phoenix.

Of course, the old Blake mansion has magic, and people who don't know the location can't find it.

Unfortunately, among the escaped dark wizards was a member of the Black family—Bellatrix!
……

Early the next morning, a large number of owls flew into the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

"Cuckoo!"

A copy of the Daily Prophet lands on Bree's dining room table.

"It's okay." Bree put down her knife and fork, pushed the clean plate aside, and picked up the report.

The cutlery on the table quickly disappeared.

Daily Prophet——

Front page headlines - Hogwarts attacked by Death Eaters
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was attacked by a large number of Death Eaters. Professor Umbridge from the Ministry of Magic was not afraid of life and death, and used superb magic to intercept the Death Eaters' conspiracy against Hogwarts. With the joint assistance of the Ministry of Magic, they defeated the Death Eaters. The Death Apostles organization protects the young wizards and teachers and students of Hogwarts.

The Ministry of Magic has decided to appoint Ms. Dolores Umbridge as Deputy Minister of Magic to commend Professor Umbridge for her contribution to the British wizarding community...

……

"Oh, are you kidding? Umbridge looked like a crazy woman rolling on the ground yesterday, and there were so many Death Eaters from nowhere!" The young wizards below were furious.

Because there are more important news below, but they are all covered up by Umbridge's affairs.

Bree looked down at the report.

The report briefly summarized the news that Black's old house was attacked by Death Eaters and Arthur, an official of the Ministry of Magic, was injured...

"Arthur should be at the Black Mansion as a member of the Order of the Phoenix." Bree looked down at the shamelessness of the Ministry of Magic.

And most importantly, the attack on Gringotts was downplayed and put at the end.

"Cuckoo!" There's a new report, it's the urgent Daily Prophet.

An extremely conspicuous piece of news was written on the head of the entire newspaper!

The Crimes of Dumbledore!
