"I've read about it in a book. It's a very scary dark creature that sucks away people's happiness, leaving only the worst memories. It can also suck away people's souls, turning them into a walking corpse."

Encyclopedia Hermione immediately told the information she knew.

"I remember that they are controlled by the Ministry of Magic and are now basically in Azkaban. There should be no wild Dementors in the outside world."

The Ministry of Magic claimed that Dementors were under their control, but as to the truth, only Minister of Magic Fudge knew.

"It's a pity that we are not yet proficient in the Patronus Charm."

Hermione said with a hint of regret, and some silver threads emanated from the tip of her wand, unable to be fixed into shape.

"If only it could be like what Dudley just did."

Is it possible that Dudley is not proficient in the Patronus Charm? Is it just that quantitative change leads to qualitative change?

After she finished speaking, Harry and Neville also took out their wands, and some silver threads also emanated from their wands.

After drinking the happy water, Ron frowned slightly and found that things were not simple.

"Wait. You all learned the Patronus Charm?"

It seems like he's the only one who hasn't learned yet?

Everyone nodded to Ron.

Harry also added at the right time: "Malfoy has learned it too."

Ron:.

Neville followed suit, "We also learned a lot of dueling techniques. I can now cast some stronger Transfiguration spells."

Ron:.

He has always been stronger than Neville in Transfiguration, which is Neville's weak point. But now it seems that he is not as good as Neville.

"By the way, Ron, Malfoy said that he would be happy to teach you some Defense Against the Dark Arts techniques after school starts."

Neville's last words pierced Ron's heart like an arrow.

At that moment he felt that his whole body had turned gray.

It’s just a holiday, why do I feel like I’m missing out on so much?

I won't go on the next trip.

Ron made up his mind secretly.

He doesn't want to be at the bottom of the discipline group!

Is it possible that other little wizards just have fun during the holidays, but Dudley and his friends work harder during the holidays than they do at school?

Well, the main problem is

Dudley and the others are too stubborn.

Well, a lot of volume.

If they continue like this, maybe in two years they will be able to defeat those experienced Death Eaters.

Chapter 196 They are just looking for an excuse to get out of Azkaban

The incident of the Dementors from Azkaban running into the Hogwarts train had a huge impact, and many young wizards saw them.

The Dementors were all on the bus searching for Sirius, and they had the approval of the Ministry of Magic.

Although before boarding the train, the Ministry of Magic sternly warned them not to attack young wizards.

But don't expect these brainless Dementors to behave themselves.

As long as there is happiness, it is their food.

"I think I should write a letter to give some feedback to my family."

"Even the Dementors are here. What on earth is the Ministry of Magic doing?"

Draco changed his usual polite state and cursed with a pale face. A Dementor had just broken into the carriage where he was. Fortunately, Draco had a lot of common sense and recognized it as a Dementor at a glance.

With his immature Patronus Charm he barely managed to drive the Dementor away from the box.

But he was still attacked by the Dementors and became a little depressed.

"Are you okay?" Draco turned and asked the shivering little girl behind him with concern.

There were many Slytherin members in the box he was in, including Goyle, Crabbe, Pansy, Daphne and her sister.

The little girl protected by Draco was Daphne's sister, Astoria.

A girl with cascading golden hair, blue eyes, and two dimples when she smiles.

"It's okay, thank you."

Astoria's face was as pale as Draco's, or even worse than Draco's.

The younger the wizard, the more susceptible he is to the effects of Dementors.

Even with Draco's protection, Astoria was still affected by the Dementors.

"Wait until we get to Hogwarts. I'll inform the Slytherins that there will be a meeting in the evening."

Pansy said with a grim face that she was also frightened by the Dementors just now. If Draco had not stepped forward, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Most of the people riding on the express train are young wizards, the future flowers of the wizarding world. What on earth is the Ministry of Magic thinking? They agreed to allow Dementors to board the train. Are they crazy?

"Here, have a cup of hot cocoa."

Draco bought a cup of hot cocoa from the train vendor and handed it to Astoria.

“It helps with recovery.”

"Thank you."

Astoria said softly, taking the hot cocoa, and after drinking a little, her body felt warm and her spirits restored a little.

She glanced at Draco secretly, and when she met Draco's gaze, she immediately lowered her head like a frightened little rabbit, looking at the hot cocoa in the cup, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Draco, how do you know the Patronus Charm?" Pansy asked.

Draco has changed a lot in the past one or two years. Not only has his personality become more stable, but his abilities have surpassed those of all the seniors. He is poised to become the number one Slytherin besides Dudley.

"Brother D had someone teach me. Unfortunately, my Patronus Charm is not mature yet, otherwise that disgusting guy wouldn't have been able to get in just now."

Draco didn't hide anything and told Pansy directly.

"As expected of Mr. Dursley!"

The Slytherins in the carriage admired sincerely.

At this time, in the Hogwarts principal's office.

"Cornelly, do you know what the Dementors just did?"

Dumbledore looked at Fudge in front of him with a serious expression, rarely smiling, and said in a stern voice: "They broke into the Hogwarts Express!"

"It's full of little wizards!"

"We have to catch Sirius as soon as possible, or I'm done for."

Fudge tried to argue.

"Because Sirius's escape from prison made them angry, they vowed to find Sirius!"

"Cornelly." Dumbledore rubbed his throbbing temples and said with deep helplessness: "Dementors have no emotions, let alone anger."

"They're just looking for an excuse to get out of Azkaban."

"If they are in Azkaban, the Ministry of Magic can still limit their numbers. But once they leave there, are you sure you can control their numbers?"

"Albus, there's nothing I can do."

Fudge looked embarrassed and looked at Dumbledore pleadingly: "For the sake of our long-term friendship, please help me this time."

"As long as Sirius is captured, the Dementors will withdraw as they promised me. Until then, please let them serve as guards for Hogwarts. Please."

Dumbledore finally agreed to Fudge's request.

Even if he disagreed, Fudge could still force the matter down.

Because he is the Minister of Magic, theoretically the most powerful wizard in England.

On the one hand, Hogwarts is controlled by the Ministry of Magic.

On the other hand, Dumbledore is restricted by the Ministry of Magic. Even if he has the ability to reshuffle the wizarding world, he will choose to abide by the rules.

Because he once vowed that he would stay away from the center of power.

Because he is the greatest white wizard in this world.

Because he is Dumbledore.

Next to the tall gate of Hogwarts, two Dementors stood on both sides of the gate acting as guards. They emitted bursts of cold air, making the young wizards passing by shiver unconsciously.

"It's hard to believe that dark creatures like Dementors can enter Hogwarts openly."

"We must ask Dumbledore and Fudge what they are trying to do."

The young wizards from the four colleges all looked unhappy, especially Slytherin, who looked extremely ugly.

The arrival of the Dementors made them feel like they were not in Hogwarts, but in Azkaban.

Even if one is destined to become a dark wizard, no one would want to experience what it's like to be in Azkaban.

Creatures like Dementors will not show mercy to you just because of which college you are from. They don't understand the ways of the world.

Quite a few young wizards have been attacked by Dementors on the train just now, but fortunately no one has been killed yet.

The auditorium was filled with students, a dark mass.

When everyone was seated, the Sorting Ceremony officially began, and one little wizard after another was assigned to his or her own college.

When the prelude was over, Dumbledore finally spoke, his expression was unusually serious: "Welcome to Hogwarts in the new school year! I have a few words to say to all of you, one of which is very serious."

"Our school is currently hosting several Dementors from Azkaban. They are here to perform official duties for the Ministry of Magic."

"They are stationed at all entrances to the school grounds. No one is allowed to leave the school without permission. Dementors cannot be deceived by tricks or disguises."

"They are born without the understanding of requests or excuses, so I warn each of you: do not give them any excuse to hurt you."

Dumbledore emphasized again and again.

The young wizards on the train had seen the power of Dementors, and even without Dumbledore's warning, their deterrent power was enough to keep the young wizards in check.

“This year, I am delighted to welcome two new teachers to our team.”

Just when Dumbledore was about to introduce the new professors of the two courses.

That familiar chilly feeling instantly spread throughout the entire auditorium.

This means that the Dementors have entered Hogwarts Castle.

Chapter 197: We can’t let my father be the head of this family anymore. He is too willful!

"What's wrong with the Dementors? What are they going to do?"

The entire auditorium was suddenly in chaos, and the young wizards, especially those in the lower grades, were the most affected.

The senior wizards turned their eyes to the professor, and the professor looked at Dumbledore who was sitting in the center.

Dumbledore's expression was extremely ugly.

Fudge promised him that the Dementors would only patrol outside the castle at most and would never enter Hogwarts.

As soon as they left, the Dementors came in.

At the entrance of the auditorium, the figures of Dementors emitting a disgusting smell gradually emerged, one, two, three. A total of fifty Dementors, densely packed the entire corridor.

Dumbledore stood up and took off his half-moon glasses. His blue eyes were like sharp swords, emitting a captivating light, and he exuded an astonishing aura.

He took out his wand for the first time.

It is straight and slender, a total of 15 inches long, with a bulge-like protrusion on each section, and looks ordinary as a whole.
