HRHL# CHAPTER 159

Harry had assumed that Myrtle would be touchy about this subject and that coaxing her into a good mood would take some effort.

To his surprise, however, Myrtle’s expression suddenly shifted.

“Oh, I was just teasing you!” she said with a giggle, spinning in midair as if she were delighted.

“If you want to know how I died…”

Her demeanor changed abruptly, as tho...

Starting from where Harry’s fist landed, a layer of white frost spread across half of Ragehorn’s head, even in the warm water. The dragon, caught off guard by the pain, opened its maw to roar—only to gulp down a mouthful of water, choking in surprise.

Though the Norwegian Ridgeback was a predator in water as much as on land, its body wasn’t built to breathe underwater. Before divi...

As the eldest among them, Cedric naturally stepped forward without hesitation. The moment he noticed the approaching figure, he drew his wand and pointed it at the hooded silhouette.

“Who are you?! What do you want?!”

But what answered him was a sharp whooshing sound, followed by a piercing shout that shattered the night sky.

“Avada Kedavra!”

A blinding surge of ...

Harry didn’t need to rely on the Heart of the Wild to forge a bond with a tamed beast, nor did he need to draw strength or healing from such a connection to empower himself or his allies.

All he needed was for Norbert to learn to sheath its claws and fangs around allies, to temper its wild nature, and to become a safe mount—perhaps even one that could lend a hand in battle.

Emerging from the Map Chamber, Harry didn’t immediately seek out Moaning Myrtle, who was likely still sobbing somewhere. Instead, he made his way straight to Dumbledore’s office.

This time, as he approached the gargoyle guarding the entrance, the stone beast abruptly leaped aside.

“Why didn’t you ask for the password this time?” Harry inquired.

[As this writer delved deeper into the investigation, I uncovered something utterly shocking that no one could have anticipated—our Boy Who Lived, in less than half a year after starting his first year at Hogwarts, has founded his own club: the Shaman Priest Club!]

Ron noticed Hermione struggling to hold her ground, his face etched with desperate worry, terrified that she might be overpowered by Pansy standing across from her.

"Come on, Hermione!" he urged silently.

Harry furrowed his brow. To him, Pansy’s strength seemed unnaturally pronounced. By all logic, a second-year student shouldn’t possess such magical prowess. Of course, it could...

As he had in every match this season, Harry Potter led the Gryffindor Quidditch team to victory in their final Hogwarts game with an unstoppable, almost overwhelming force, clinching the Quidditch Cup. The stadium roared with excitement, the air thick with triumph.

When the two teams met for the customary handshake, signaling the match’s end, the seven Gryffindor players made their way ...

“I think I should let Professor Flitwick explain to everyone what a wizard’s duel entails,” Professor Lockhart said, raising a hand to quiet the room. “After all, though I’m quite knowledgeable about dueling myself, I must admit I still fall a bit short when facing a true dueling master.”

Professor Flitwick stepped forward, his high-pitched voice ringing out as he addressed th...

HRA# CHAPTER 101

The rumor that Harry Potter carried himself with the gravitas of a Hogwarts professor was, for now, confined to the school’s students and perhaps their parents. In the insular wizarding world, where information spread slowly due to limited channels, such a notion would take time to gain traction beyond Hogwarts’ walls.

To the wider British magical community, news came primarily throug...

He and most of his friends were now separated by the divide of life and death.

Harry folded the letter and tucked it behind Gareth’s notebook.

He particularly remembered Gareth’s words: a good brother would usually just tease him, but never truly deceive him—though how had Gareth known with such certainty that Cassandra would travel back a hundred years to find him?

The ground trembled as ten thousand pigs thundered across the field, their hooves kicking up clouds of dust that swirled into a choking haze. The cacophony of their squeals and snorts was deafening, a primal roar that froze Uncle Vernon in place. His eyes squeezed shut, and he turned away, bracing himself as if surrendering to fate, certain the stampede would sweep him away.

No one knew why Gryffindor had suddenly earned points from Snape, just as no one understood why he always seemed to have it out for Gryffindor in the first place.

The ones who found this fact hardest to swallow were, naturally, the Slytherin students.

It made sense, didn’t it? The old professor, who had always been as “warm” to Gryffindor as a winter’s day, had inexplicably ...

Hagrid’s insistence on calling the young dragon Norbert didn’t bother Harry one bit.

After discovering it was a Norwegian Ridgeback, Harry had delved into stacks of dragon-related texts, unearthing one key fact: until the dragon reached a certain size, names meant nothing to it. Hagrid’s endless chatter of “Norbert this, Norbert that” was, frankly, a futile endeavor—the dragon...

After composing himself, Lockhart stowed the lifeless manticore back into the cabinet.

He put on an air of deep regret as he said, “I’m terribly sorry I couldn’t let everyone have their fill of excitement—though not to worry, given the recent spate of petrification incidents, I’ve decided to start a Duelling Club here at Hogwarts. If you feel unsatisfied, you’re welcome to com...

“That's not fair!” Ron burst out, his voice cutting through the cozy warmth of the Gryffindor common room.

“Oh, hush, Ron,” Hermione snapped, shooting him a withering glance before turning to Harry. Her cheeks, already flushed, seemed to deepen in color. “I—I saw my parents. They were congratulating me because I’d become Minister for Magic. And, um, Filch was there too, clap...

To be fair, when small spells combine, their collective power can be formidable. Spells often interact in unpredictable ways, leading to complex cases at St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries—where magical symptoms intertwine with the charms that caused them.

The Slytherin students surrounding Draco Malfoy had clearly spotted his vulnerability: a blind spot on one sid...

Dumbledore wasn’t surprised. After observing his “Golden Boy” for the past year and a half, he believed he had fully grasped everything there was to know about him.

“Few young witches or wizards your age possess the courage you do, Harry,” Dumbledore said with a smile.

“Could be because it’s so hard to find a professor for this subject,” Harry said with a shrug. “If they have to replace the teacher every year, there aren’t enough wizards in all of Britain to keep up—especially ones willing to take the risk.”

“That’s true,” Hagrid said, letting out a heavy sigh. “I still remember last year’s poor soul. Had to carry him out of the ...

As he spoke, Professor Dumbledore shifted his body with a hint of weariness.

The past few days had utterly exhausted him, as he’d been tirelessly searching for traces of Tom and his mother.

“Really?” Harry hadn’t expected his guess to actually hit the mark. His eyes sparkled with a gleam that could only be described as gossip-fueled curiosity. “Could you tell me more about...

The fragment of Voldemort’s soul—let’s call it his main soul for simplicity’s sake, the one that fled the Potter household after that fateful murder eleven years ago—had met a rather peculiar fate.

In a twist of irony, the victim of that long-ago crime had personally bested him, crafting a permanent prison for the Dark Lord. One could only hope Voldemort appreciated the accommod...

The soul emerged from a misty illusion, summoned by the shaman priest’s incantation. Professor McGonagall, however, recalled Harry’s description of this spell with crystal clarity: it could only call forth the blood ancestors of its target.

Which meant that all these souls drifting around the shimmering light curtain were none other than the ancestors of the Potter family?!

That said, the Imperius Curse cast by a second-year wizard isn’t particularly strong to begin with, so it’s hardly surprising that it triggered a breakthrough when it touched Ron’s untouchable—his breaking point.

Harry watched them practice on each other with unrestrained glee, showing no intention of reining them in.

In fact, a hundred years ago, he’d had plenty of classm...

Truth be told, even if Lily hadn’t spoken so highly of Snape in front of the kids, it wouldn’t have made much difference.

Despite his bold words, Ron suddenly shivered.
