Start by logging into the Old Man's Ring at Hogwarts

She's so greedy, she'll probably forget the pain once the wound heals and be thinking about whether she can have another bite.

So Zicomo simply added a continuous healing magic circle below the essence of blood.

Let this little guy eat something piping hot.

After completing the magic circle, Zicomo maximized the time flow in the bloodline essence area and collected the scales, claws, and bones on the ground.

Zicomo planned to use half of these scales, claws, and bones to enhance the Death Staff and the other half to enhance the Darkmoon Greatsword.

I believe his two weapons will see a significant upgrade.

After doing all this, Zicomo turned and left the "Zen Garden".

If all goes well, after absorbing the bloodline essence this time, Ifrit will be able to complete the rank advancement and reach the final Holy Dragon level.

Even with time acceleration, it would still be a long process.

Ifrit won't be able to get out anytime soon.

So Zicomo decided to deal with some external matters first.

For example, he promised Harry that he would find Bellatrix and the Lestrange brothers.

Zicomo received Bellatrix's wand from Harry several days ago.

However, he was busy hunting dragons in Famyazra at that time, so the matter was temporarily put on hold.

Now that Famyazra's dragons have been wiped out, it's time to settle this matter.

Zicomo took out Bellatrix's wand, his hand surging with cursed power as he covered the wand.

This power, also derived from Monger, is not as strong as the power of blood, but it is strange and unpredictable.

If used properly, it can kill without leaving a trace.

Of course, Zicomo wasn't cursing Bellatrix at this moment. At least, it wasn't the right time yet.

After all, he had promised Harry he would find her location.

Chapter 284 Harry Realizes the Problem, and the Unexpected Enemy

The cursed power in Zicomo's hand was merely using Bellatrix's wand as a medium to pinpoint her exact location.

The real killer move is yet to come.

Bellatrix's wand melted rapidly under the power of the curse, eventually turning into a fist-sized disc.

The disc is entirely black, with no patterns on its surface.

There was only a white mark on it.

The amazing thing is that no matter how Zicomo spins the disc, the white mark on it always points in one direction.

This disc is similar to a guiding spell or a tracking charm.

You can find Bellatrix by following the direction indicated by the white markings on the disc.

As for why Zikomo doesn't use the Guiding Charm and the Tracking Charm, it's naturally because they have no offensive power.

The disc in his hand was different; it contained a curse from Zicomo against Bellatrix.

The curse will take effect when someone presents this disc to Bellatrix.

Bellatrix will die under this curse.

Zicomo Apparated into Harry's room with the disc, startling Harry who was writing a letter.

Harry, calming his frightened emotions, complained to Zicomo, "Zicomo, could you at least use the front door next time, or let me know?"

Zicomo replied, "Sorry, I'll be more careful next time. But actually you could add an anti-Apparition charm to the room, otherwise anyone could just walk into your room like I did."

Even Harry's Anti-Apparition Charm couldn't stop him.

Harry nodded, deciding to ask his mother how to use the Anti-Apparition Charm later.

“By the way,” Harry asked, “what brings you here?”

Zicomo handed over the disc in his hand and said, "This is a tool that can track Bellatrix. Follow the white markings on the disc to find her."

Harry looked at the disc in Zicomo's hand. It was just an ordinary disc, but it gave him a strange and ominous feeling.

He asked hesitantly, "Zicomo, is there really nothing wrong with this disc?"

Zicomo waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem, it's perfectly safe."

Zicomo silently added in his mind, "Safety for everyone except Bellatrix."

Harry accepted the disc upon hearing this.

He said, "Thank you."

“Don’t mention it,” Zicomo said. “By the way, what were you doing just now?”

Harry replied, "I'm writing to Dumbledore to inquire about the progress of the manhunt for the prisoners in Azkaban."

To put it simply, Harry just wanted to know the whereabouts of Bellatrix and the Lestrange brothers.

However, Zicomo didn't think Harry would get any information.

So many days have passed, and there hasn't been a single word from the Ministry of Magic.

It is estimated that the whereabouts of those prisoners have not yet been found.

After experiencing death once, Voldemort seems to have become even more cunning.

He and a group of prisoners went into hiding, no one knows what they were plotting.

Zicomo said, "That's perfect. You can tell Dumbledore about the disc and have him go with you to find Bellatrix and the others."

Harry nodded, intending to continue writing the letter.

“Oh, right,” Zicomo added, “remember to have Dumbledore call more people, or I’m afraid you’ll get ganged up on.”

Harry asked, "You mean they have a lot of people gathered together?"

After all, if it were just Bellatrix and his two companions, he and Dumbledore could easily take them down.

There's absolutely no need to ask for help anymore.

Zicomo shook his head and said, "Things are more serious than you think. All the prisoners who escaped from Azkaban may have gathered together."

Harry asked in surprise, "How is that possible?"

Zicomo countered, "What if there were someone who could lead them?"

Harry asked, "Who?"

Zicomo continued, "Who do you think could lead the Death Eaters?"

Harry's pupils contracted slightly, and a name escaped his lips: "Voldemort!"

Yes, he should have realized earlier that this matter was related to Voldemort.

After all, no one but him could take away all the prisoners of Azkaban without the Ministry of Magic noticing.

Apart from him, no one else could stop these escaped prisoners from causing trouble in the wizarding world.

It's just that because Voldemort had only been dead for a short time, Harry didn't think about the possibility that Voldemort might have returned.

Now, thanks to Zicomo's reminder, Harry finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

“I’ll write to Dumbledore right away.”

Harry rushed to his desk and wrote a letter to Dumbledore about the incident.

Seeing this, Zicomo said goodbye: "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

"and many more!"

Harry stopped Zicomo and asked, "Aren't you going to get involved in this?"

If Zicomo doesn't participate, it's like losing a super-strong fighter. Harry is somewhat uneasy.

Zicomo said, "Don't worry, I'll notice when you find Bellatrix with that disc. Then I'll head over."

After saying that, Zicomo Apparated and left.

Hearing that Zicomo would be coming, Harry breathed a sigh of relief and turned to continue writing to Dumbledore.

Zicomo, on the other hand, returned to the borderlands and began working on releasing the destined dead.

…………

Famyazra, on the side of the bridge outside the altar of the Dragon Church.

Zicomo walked up the bridge and encountered a large tree guarding the gate. Behind the gate lay the location of the black sword Maricus.

When Zicomo saw it, he felt a pang of nostalgia.

After all, this was the first boss he encountered upon arriving at the border region.

The difference is that the tree guardians in front of us are equipped with more advanced gear, just like those on the outskirts of the royal city of Rodel, with dragon-tail armor.

As the name suggests, all of their equipment is made from dragon scales and claws.
