The spirit behind the gods

After a summer vacation, Harry's skin turned whiter, perhaps because Harry had been locked up in the house.

On August 19th, Hermione, who had been busy at Hogwarts, finally gave herself a vacation.

On Diagon Alley, Harry, who has already lived in the Weasleys, goes to the Blott Bookstore with Ron to buy new books for the new semester, and happens to meet Hermione, who is also preparing to buy textbooks.

"Gilderoy Lockhart?" Hermione looked at the name of the banner on the Blotted Bookstore with a little confusion, trying to find information about the name in her head, "Who is this?

Unlike the situation where all kinds of idle books are read together in the original book, Hermione is so busy today that she can't even finish reading professional books, so naturally she won't read Lockhart's books.

In the Blotted Bookstore, Hermione once again sees Malfoy and his father, Lucius.

"Hermione, notice Lucius' hand... That diary!"

Because of a fight between Lucius and Ron's father, Lucius took advantage of the situation and threw the troublesome notebook to the youngest member of the Weasley family into your crucible.

"Hey-Ginny, I'll exchange this notebook of hearts with you, okay?"

Hermione took a notebook with Lockhart on it and exchanged it with Ginny, and Ginny was one of Lockhart's fans, so naturally she would not refuse such a deal.

And Hermione, who had just taken over the Horcrux notebook and had already studied Horcruxes and even created a Horcrux variant, suddenly sensed the essence of the notebook in her hand - Horcruxes.

"Yo, Tom Riddle's notebook, do you say..."

As soon as she opened it and saw the name of the owner of the notebook, Hermione immediately realized what she was holding.

In other words, if you are an ordinary person, knowing that Voldemort's Horcrux is in your hand, I am afraid that it will feel as tricky as taking a hot potato, after all, Voldemort's name represents a nightmare of an era.

However, Hermione is different from ordinary people, she has the confidence that others do not have, ordinary people regard her as a demon-like existence, and in Hermione's eyes, she is just a loser who has been hung up and beaten again and again!

Horcruxes are evil, and they can be said to be very weak, and before Tom Riddle's notebook is confused and possessed, plundering the opponent's vast amount of life force, this notebook can even be said to have even the slightest ability to act and resist.

To put it bluntly, today's notebook is equivalent to research materials that Hermione will not resist in her hands.

Finally got back together with Harry and the others, and the three of them talked to each other about each other's experiences during this time.

Harry and Ron's experiences were different, but they could at least be classified as ordinary Hogwarts students' summer vacations, but when the two of them heard about her summer vacation arrangements from Hermione, they were completely stunned.

Back to school for renovation?

"Oh my God, Hermione, I bet you're the first student in Hogwarts history to dare to do a renovation in Hogwarts, and it's an overhaul!"

Hermione's experience was completely unprecedented, and I'm afraid it was no one to come before.

Hearing the exclamation of Harry and the others, Hermione covered her mouth and smiled, she hadn't said the specific changes in Hogwarts yet, otherwise Harry and the others would probably be scared.

Harry mentions a strange incident before Ron arrives to pick him up, when a house elf tries to convince him not to go to Hogwarts or risk his life.

Sharing his own experience, Harry naturally hoped that his two friends would be able to give him an answer.

"Household elves?" Hermione was stunned, as if she didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, "Household elves are not common, except for Hogwarts, which retains the largest group, there are only a few other families of long-established pure-blood wizards who still have one or two house-elves, so it is not difficult to sift through them!"

Harry, who was originally just a thought for himself, suddenly had hope when he heard that Hermione knew so much.

"Hmm—you mentioned that the house-elf refers to its owner as its owner, and if you're not mistaken, then the house-elf must not be from Hogwarts, because Hogwarts house-elves belong only to the Headmaster, and they have served Hogwarts for generations, and they are also called Headmasters!"

Excluding Hogwarts, Hermione suddenly turned her suspicious gaze to Lucius, whom she had met earlier.

"Perhaps... It's the Malfoy family, and their family is one of the best types in history among pure-bloods, so it's not inconceivable to have a house-elf!"

The house-elf affair was just a tidbit, and no one paid much attention to it, more to the professor who was discussing the new Defence Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts.

Whether Gilderoy Lockhart is qualified to be a professor is something that Dumbledore's professors should consider, and Hermione and the others are talking about the curse of the position of defence-of-the dark arts professor.

Over the years, no one has been able to serve as a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor for two years in a row, unable to continue for personal reasons, or simply died unexpectedly, which adds an aura of mystery to the position of Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts.

On September 1, 1992, it was the entrance day of Hogwarts again, and this time Ginny, the youngest child in the Weasley family, was also of school age.

And Hermione didn't let go of any time to study, constantly pushing herself, and even let Harry and Ron, who had been crazy during the summer vacation, regain their hearts in the last week.

"Hmm?" Hermione, who was about to cross the platform of nine and three-quarters, suddenly reached out and touched the pillar, and the passage that was supposed to be walking together was now completely blocked by a wall.

This pillar is the only passage connecting the nine and three-quarters of the station, and the closure of the passage means that everyone has lost their path to board the train.
