Hogwarts 1991

Chapter 644 Handling
"What happened up there? Why did Barty Crouch become like that!" Ron put down the brass binoculars in his hand and muttered in disbelief.

"That's not important, the important thing is... Where did Harry go? And..."

Hermione turned her head in a panic and said in another direction, "...that city should be London, right?"

"What exactly happened!"

The students in the stands could no longer suppress the panic in their hearts. They talked loudly about what happened in the stands above where the referees gathered—the mutation that happened to Barty Crouch.

(Crouch turns into a scary stone statue...which they can still see)
"Look--"

"Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick!"

Neville pointed to the sky,

After McGuffin saw the two professors separate, Professor Flitwick immediately flew straight in their direction.

This--

McGuffin had a bad premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, amidst the discussion among the students and the worried eyes of Hermione and Ron, McGuffin was pulled by Professor Flitwick and flew directly to the floating island above.

It didn't take long before they came before Dumbledore's professors and the referees.

"Oh, Mr. Albert! Wait a minute..."

As Dumbledore's calm words fell, McGuffin saw him trap 'someone' with a very specific spell (rings of red halos... from top to bottom, like some kind of fancy knot art).

Of course, it can also be said to be some kind of man-made monster that McGuffin is very familiar with.

— Erpilian,

But this time it's more extreme,

This time the other face was no longer there, but squeezed into one face.

McGuffin easily thought of... where did the [Horcrux Crown] that disappeared in the [House of Requirement] go.

How had he not guessed all this?

Trelawney also knows about the existence of the [House of Requirement],

Moreover, this godly old housewife had always planned to leave Hogwarts and the European wizarding world at Christmas...

It was suspicious to suddenly change your mind on Christmas Eve.

What's more, after that, her divination class began to be full of a strange and sneaky atmosphere... This is also very suspicious.

As if seeing McGuffin's probing eyes, Trelawney immediately pulled out a ferocious smile from the upper half of her face (Voldemort's snake face).

make a threat—

sizzle~
"Albert~"

McGuffin stepped back again and again,

'Actually... It's not McGuffin's fault that he forgot these things. "

'Who would know that Trelawney, who is always pretending to be a godsend, who is different from the original plot, suddenly changed her style of painting...was it because she was possessed by Voldemort? '

"hiss~"

"McGuffin Albert... see you again at last!"

That half of the face spoke to MacGuffin blatantly in front of everyone in Parseltongue.

McGuffin looked at Dumbledore, but the old bee ignored him.

He stared blankly at the city far away in the sky - London.

The original warm golden light of the World Tree sprinkled on half of his face, and it was not so friendly... On the contrary, there was a sense of distance that made people feel strange.
No one knows... what Dumbledore was thinking at this moment.

Voldemort continued: "McGuffin Albert... let me go, just as you did when you first found out..."

"If you hadn't told Dumbledore the first time... my plan would have fallen by the wayside at the very beginning."

"It seems that your relationship with him is not that close..."

"Let me go... I will let my body give you a place in the new world... Lord Voldemort keeps his word!"

Hissing whispers kept ringing.

McGuffin tried not to pay attention to this guy's nagging...for fear that the referee professors before him and Cornelius Fudge would think that he had some py deal with this guy now.

"I can smell the fear in your heart... MacGuffin Albert!"

"Let me go...Look at everything around you...A smart wizard like you should be able to understand who is gaining the upper hand right now..."

"...on the side of the victor, making the right choice..."

Seeing a group of professors beside him who knew that he could speak Parseltongue, mainly Snape, they were already looking at him suspiciously.

McGuffin hurried to Dumbledore's side, turned around...like the old bee, and began to look at the metropolis in the distance that glowed slightly red in the night.

Soon, amidst the silence of the crowd and the hissing of snake language... Professor McGonagall flew up from the deepest part of the Forbidden Forest with a tired-looking Professor Sprout.

Also came up with the pony man that McGuffin had seen before.

The pony, who was still a child at first, had grown taller and stronger than the MacGuffin in a short time.

The muscles on his body are tangled, quite a Nezha-like demeanor.

Anyway, looking at that appearance, one can tell that if the fight is based on physical strength alone... he can beat two Gore and Crabbe by himself.

"Good day! Dear Mr. Dumbledore!"

The pony man bowed slightly, with his forelegs slightly bent, his arms folded in front of his chest... He saluted Dumbledore very gratefully and said hello.

He, too, recognized the McGuffin who smiled and nodded at him.

"Hmm!" Dumbledore responded, and then turned his gaze to Professor Sprout rather eagerly.

"Pomona! Do you still have the seeds of the World Tree?"

"Not many...only... two..."

"The rest are petrified and have not yet been hatched by magic power...the 'dead species' that have been revived... If you are in a hurry, then I..."

Professor Sprout reacted very slowly. After finishing one sentence, it took a long time before he started to say the next sentence as if he remembered how to say it.

"enough!"

"Enough! Pomo!" Dumbledore repeatedly emphasized, "Although there is a necessary premise that the magic power of the world is gradually recovering, the originally impossible things of opening the [Nurture Garden] and restoring the World Tree to life have become feasible."

"But these two major projects have consumed most of your energy during this time... What's more, the magic power of the World Tree has eroded you very seriously. If this continues, your body and brain will not be able to hold on."

"Go to Madam Pomfrey and ask her to prepare you a dose of [Water of Life and Death], then take a good rest..."

After Dumbledore took the world tree seed from the slow-paced Professor Sprout, he signaled Professor McGonagall to take her down.

At this time, Voldemort, who was originally indifferent, seemed to remember something after seeing Dumbledore's actions.

He began to manipulate Professor Trelawney's body and struggled desperately.

And he kept threatening the McGuffin present with his Parseltongue.

But before he could say a few words, he was directly forced by Dumbledore...to swallow a tree seed.

It was the first time for McGuffin to see the seeds of the world tree and its usefulness.
