A Certain Hogwarts Magician Professor

"Haw! (The smell of ice cream!)" Warren looked up at Felix, his little hands clutching his clothes.

Felix laughed. "Your nose is really good." He said, stroking its head with one hand, and in its expectant eyes, the ring on his hand flashed, and an ice cream suddenly appeared.

"Whoah!"

"I still have," Felix said. "I bought it when I got back." He waved again, and two more ice creams floated in the air.

He handed one to Hermione. "Oh, thanks," said Hermione.

They walked in the direction of the ancient rune's office, and Hermione nibbled at the crumbled nuts on top of the ice cream—not the same flavor as what was served at the Hogwarts table.

"How's the third project going?" Felix asked, nibbling at the chocolate covering the ice cream.

"It was going well - we practiced with Cedric and Collins and Roger, and although Harry looked a little - uh, but anyway, it's going so fast, I can't believe Collins hasn't mastered Apparition yet, You know, she's in seventh grade!"

Hermione chirped, "We're both betting the two of them—Ron and Collins who mastered Apparition first, Professor, we told them the secret to the Room of Requirement." She gave Felix a careful look.

"It doesn't matter." Felix said, "In fact, there are many people who have known it over the years, but very few people have been able to dig out its real secrets."

Hermione looked relieved. "And the ghost book you gave to Harry, which was Harry's prize in the duel competition... Harry also took it out, but after more than a year, the magical response on it was a bit slow." She didn't say anything about Li Hai Professor Pu's face became blurred, and she tried to fix it, but to no avail.

Felix listened with a smile, and opened the office door.

"Mr. Wimple from the Experimental Spells Committee came to the school two days ago. He came to review the rune magic we found. Everyone was very curious about the horns on his head, but he said the situation was much better... Harry, Ron , uh," she pursed her lips, "and Malfoy, the Bright Fire Charm that the three of them discovered seems to have a restraining effect on dark creatures, Mr. Wimple is going to try one by one, and if it works well, he will report to the Ministry of Magic. Apply for a reward, and possibly invite Harry and the others to join the Alliance Against the Dark Arts."

"I didn't expect this situation." Felix was slightly surprised.

"And... uh," Hermione hesitated. "What's wrong?" Felix asked, surprised by Hermione's answer. "Harry has another nightmare."

"About Voldemort?"

"Yes, it should be..." Hermione stammered, "Harry is not sure, he was in his sleep, and he vaguely dreamed of little Crouch conspiring with Voldemort and Voldemort, Harry entered Voldemort's perspective again, he Said he saw little Crouch kneeling at his feet...and then Harry woke up and his Occlumency was working."

In fact, Harry was rather remorseful about it, and his Occlumency seemed to backfire on the matter, preventing him from getting more useful information.

Felix's face turned solemn. He realized something, "Does Dumbledore know about this?"

"Yes," Hermione said hurriedly, nodding, "Harry's scar on his forehead was burning hot, and Ron took him to the school hospital, where Headmaster Dumbledore showed up not long after."

Felix nodded, he vaguely guessed why Dumbledore chose to reveal the truth suddenly at the Wizengamore meeting, and even openly confronted Fudge, because the pace of Voldemort's resurrection was approaching, and the wizarding world had nothing to do with it. know...

Lucius Malfoy didn't find anything unusual either. This is normal. Horcruxes are obviously more closely related to Voldemort than the Magic Mark. Harry can detect Voldemort's violent mood swings, but it does not mean that the Death Eaters can do the same with the Dark Mark.

What Felix hoped was that after Voldemort's resurrection, he would know about it as soon as possible, as well as the follow-up action plan of the Death Eaters.

When he came back to his senses and saw Hermione staring at him, he said hesitantly, "Professor, if Voldemort is really resurrected, is there anyone other than Headmaster Dumbledore who can compete with him?"

Felix laughed. "Are you trying to ask me if I'm his opponent?" Her question seemed to be the same as when he asked Dumbledore.

Hermione was taken aback and looked at him embarrassedly.

"Well, it's hard to say, I've never really fought Voldemort," Felix shrugged and said uncertainly, "It should be a bit worse." He judged based on Dumbledore's strength, Dumbledore obviously She has experienced the transformation process that Ms. Ravenclaw calls "magical creatures", but her state may have declined slightly due to age or other reasons.

And Voldemort can fight against Dumbledore in this state, but only slightly inferior, which almost shows that they are on the same level, and the gap is not very obvious.

And he...

Hermione looked strangely at Professor Hepp staring at her arm, lost in thought, not knowing why. But at least she heard the professor's answer, and she felt a little lost. The professor was so powerful that he was not even Voldemort's opponent.

After she left the Ancient Rune office, she returned to the common room, where Harry and Ron were using their last minute to catch up on their homework. Hermione sat down with a heavy heart, and said carefully to the two of them, "I asked the professor."

This rambling remark made Harry suddenly raise his head, knocking over an ink bottle in a hurry, "Hey—it's okay, don't worry," he pulled out his wand and pointed at the debris on the ground, "returned as usual." The pieces snap together immediately.

Then he and Ron stared at Hermione. "What did the professor say?"

Hermione repeated Felix's words to them, and Harry's expression looked shocked.

"It's actually quite normal to think about it," Ron said. "Professor Hepp is, just—well—in his twenties."

"Twenty-four," said Hermione at once.

"Yeah, that's it," said Ron, pretending to have known. "He's still so young, I mean—he's a genius, but a genius needs time to grow, doesn't it? To be honest, except for Deng I can't think of a better wizard than him, Brittany. Since the Quidditch World Cup, papa said he might take Dumbledore's class."

"You mean Professor Hepp will be the headmaster of Hogwarts?" Harry asked in surprise, he had never thought about it, but thinking about it, it was very likely. He stared, imagining the scene—decades later, a silver-haired, silver-bearded Professor Hep (somewhat similar to Dumbledore's image, except that his nose was intact) welcomed new students in the auditorium, and he was curious. , what will the professor say in the welcome speech?

"No," interrupted Ron. "Dad said he might be the strongest wizard since Dumbledore."

Harry suddenly felt a sense of relief, with Dumbledore - and Professor Hepper, even if Voldemort was resurrected, it wouldn't be a big storm, right? However, last night Dumbledore repeatedly confirmed his dream in the school hospital, which still cast a psychological shadow on him.

Hermione sat on the cushion with her knees in her arms and was silent for about ten minutes.

"You said," she said slowly in a very soft voice, "Voldemort, Voldemort... Is it possible that he has been resurrected?"

...

"I doubted it too, Felix." Dumbledore was wearing pajamas and his long silver beards were tied together, "I can't rule out this possibility."

"Is he really in such a hurry?" Felix frowned. "He doesn't need Harry?"

"Maybe we all guessed wrong before, Harry is not the key to his resurrection." Dumbledore said softly. "Or it's not a necessity - as you guessed before, it's possible that Voldemort knew that Harry had a piece of his soul in him, and he was going to recover this piece of soul at the same time he was resurrected, and that's what little Crouch came for... But obviously, he failed."

"Other possibilities are not ruled out," Felix said.

"Yes," Dumbledore nodded slightly, he sighed: "I know some extremely evil black magic, to be precise, to be classified as curses, they all need the blood of the enemy, I have speculated that Voldemort Lily's protective magic might have a different appeal to him. But—"

"But we interrupted his plans," Felix added. His mind was running fast, trying to deduce his thoughts from Voldemort's point of view: "The experience of little Crouch and Voldemort's escape must have left him fresh in his memory. Voldemort thought that he was hidden in the dark and no one would know it. He was naturally patient. Waiting, calmly arranging the resurrection plan... But his sense of security was shattered that night - once he thought that he had little hope of getting Harry, in order to avoid the nightmare of losing his only helper, Crouch, he was very May immediately start resurrection!"

"He may have only had Harry in his eyes before the resurrection, but after the resurrection - if that's the case - his eyes will be on the wizarding world." Felix paced Dumbledore's circular office, thinking It became clearer, "Don't summon servants, don't contact allies, Albus, he's about to launch a fatal blow!"

"That's what worries me the most." Dumbledore stared at Felix with a stern expression, the wrinkles on his face were very deep in the light, and he looked old and tired.

...

"It's impossible!" Ron exclaimed in surprise.

"Why not?" Hermione asked him sharply.

"He lacks the conditions for resurrection!" Ron blurted out, looking at Harry and Hermione uneasily, "You know, he let little Crouch into the school, and little Crouch has only done one thing during this period of time, Just throwing our names into the Goblet of Fire. But we all know who he's really after. It's Harry, right?"

Harry felt a pounding in his stomach, and he strongly resented Hermione's question, but he had no evidence to refute it. Even deep in his heart, he still vaguely agreed with this view: yes, Voldemort has an excellent helper, and it has been almost four months since Crouch escaped on Christmas Eve. It is impossible for him to do nothing...

But Ron's thoughts were not without merit, Harry thought. There must be a more important purpose for Voldemort to let Crouch sneak into the school. Although he doesn't want to admit it, Harry thinks their target is himself. He originally thought that Voldemort was to torture himself, but he shouldn't be so stupid.

It's not too late to do this after the resurrection, right? Harry didn't think the torture of himself was more important to Voldemort than the resurrection. Unless he's out of his mind, going crazy in the process of repeatedly cutting souls and making Horcruxes.

"Dumbledore will take care of everything," said Ron uneasily, looking at the silent Harry and Hermione. "We'd better think about a third item. I've almost learned to Apparate, and I'm in the Room of Requirement today. There were several successes. Collins was dying of anger, her eyebrows kept falling out…”

This chapter was written very slowly and lazily, and there is only one chapter today. The author also adjusted his schedule and tried his best to bring the update time back to the world.
