HP: I just wanted to drop out of school, but I saved the world

Daphne's memory suddenly went back to the summer vacation that had just passed.

Faced with waves of threats and harassment from their former business partners who are now Death Eaters, the entire family is shrouded in invisible terror.

Because of this, her father looked ten years older in just a few months, and was immersed in sighing all day long.

Even her excellent OWL scores only made her father smile reluctantly.

On the last day before school started, he suddenly found her.

"We can't stay out of this." Her father sighed heavily, "I'm not sure if it was a wrong decision to let you have more contact with Miss Jane."

"Of course it's the right decision!" Daphne subconsciously defended her friend, "She is different!"

Her father stared at her closely, his eyes carrying a different meaning, and he suddenly sighed:

"You don't usually contradict me, Daphne."

Daphne had beads of sweat on her forehead. She wasn't sure what her father meant. She didn't know if it was an accusation for her disobedience or just a casual exclamation.

"This month, the Malfoy family sent a letter once, old Crabbe came twice, and old Goyle came four times..."

Her father did not continue the topic, but calmly spoke of the predicament faced by the Greengrass family:

"All kinds of excuses have been used. It is obvious that their goal is to drag us into this and use your close relationship with Jade Jane to strike a blow to her and Dumbledore."

"I can't do it." Daphne felt her back soaked with cold sweat. She refuted her father again, "I don't want to join the Death Eaters. I can't... I don't have the ability to attack Yu..."

She suddenly remembered the helping hand Jian Yu extended to her when she was helpless in the second grade...

Thinking back to the days and nights they spent together as roommates...

She thought of the Muggle books she left behind, and the game console that was updated every year...

Thinking of the other grand future world she showed her...

This was the first time she cleared the fog and opened her eyes to see the truth...

"Perhaps I should let you and Astoria transfer to another school." Her father continued, "Our Greengrass family is not a big family like the Malfoys. We should protect ourselves and seek a balance. We shouldn't be the focus of both sides."

"No, Dad." Daphne retorted to her father for the third time. She felt the blood boiling in her head. "I want to go back to Hogwarts."

Her father said nothing and just looked at her quietly.

"Jade's goal is greater than any other person's."

Daphne stood up, and for the first time her eyes met her father's without hesitation:

"I see the future in her, a different world! She will lead the entire wizarding world toward spiritual and material glory!"

Daphne thought of the Slytherin students:

Whether they are mixed-blood or pure-blooded snakes, they all regard Jian Yu as a role model and a mountain that they cannot climb...

She treated them all equally, whether they were purebloods, half-bloods, or Muggle-borns; whether they came from prominent families or were unknown...

Wherever she is, the family unites and makes progress together, fighting for the honor of Slytherin House...

She led them to fight against the unfair professors, defeated the oppression of Umbridge, the Deputy Minister of Magic, and gave the Slytherin students the courage to resist for the first time...

They and students from other colleges gradually broke down the barriers through exchanges in homework and classes, their prejudices against each other were gradually eliminated, and friendships were established...

Looking at the entire Slytherin now, who doesn’t have a few friends of mixed-race origin?

Some little snakes even secretly hid the Muggle books left by Jian Yu!

But now, Voldemort has extended his claws to the school!

He wanted to use the children of the Death Eaters to destroy this hard-earned unity and friendship!

He wanted to split the Slytherin students and turn their wands against their classmates!

Obviously, they are all wizards, but they are killing each other, making the already small number of wizards even more precarious!

"I want to go back to Hogwarts." Daphne felt that her voice had never been so firm. "The You-Know-Who won't succeed. Jade will stop him! She is a leader fighting for the future of wizards, not a dictator who makes wizards kill each other!"

"So what are you going to do with me, your mother, and your sister?" asked old Greengrass softly.

Daphne didn't notice that the subject of her father's words had changed.

"You could move to America, like other families like ours - Astoria could go to Ilvermorny, where she'd get a very advanced and enlightened education."

"But no matter what, I will stay here. I will follow Yu until everything is over... We will build a new world!"

She looked at her father nervously, waiting for the final verdict.

She didn't know whether it would be a rebuke, a scolding or something else...

She felt that as the eldest daughter, she might have some impulse to disregard the fate of her family...

But she was surprised to see relief in her father's eyes and the wrinkles on his face relaxed.

"Grow up, Daphne."

She had never seen her father look like this, as if he had put down a heavy burden that had been weighing on his shoulders for months.

"Your sister said the same thing," said Greengrass Sr. "Your mother and I have already bought tickets to America, along with the newlyweds Zabini and his wife. Perhaps I should return your tickets now."

Daphne opened her mouth, and she suddenly realized that it had been a long time since her father had mentioned to her that she should build a good relationship with Malfoy or make friends with the outstanding boys in school.

"Dad, what do you mean--?"

"Do what you want to do, Daphne, and take good care of your sister. I don't know if Miss Jane's decision is correct, but at least I see that you follow her. You finally have some thoughts of your own in your mind, and you can take the initiative to make destiny choices for yourself...for the family."

Pansy's shouting in her ears brought Daphne back to reality. In a trance, she found that Blaise had pulled her sleeve several times under the table, trying to bring her back to her senses.

Daphne knew what she should do. Perhaps as early as three years ago, her intuition and subconsciousness had already made a choice before she thought...

"She won't come to school!" Crabbe and Goyle continued to taunt Pansy, "She abandoned you! She ran away first!"

Daphne suddenly stood up from her chair and looked straight into Pansy's eyes:

"No, she'll go back to school."

An inexplicable courage made Daphne say the words before her mind did:

"She is different from people like you. She will never arrange the seats of Slytherin according to the wealth of the family, according to who the master is attached to, or according to bloodline. She will never allow the meals here to be enjoyed only by those who obey her! She will never force others to cast torturous spells on their classmates, on people who are also wizards!"

The Slytherin table was silent, the little snakes exchanged glances with each other.

It was a secret excitement, like a curtain that was covered by a layer of cloth, waiting for the wind to blow and open a corner...

"She will lead all wizards to create the future of the world, instead of letting wizards kill each other like some people do!"

Daphne, who knows Slytherin's temperament well, hits the nail on the head:

"Can't you see who the victory is bowing to? Don't you want to revive your weak family?"

"You don't think that if you give in to those people and rely on your cowardice, they will respect you and make your family rise to the top, right?"

"Absolutely, Daphne," Blaise whispered. "You look every bit a Gryffindor - and that's not a criticism, but a compliment this time."

He suddenly stood up and raised his eyebrows arrogantly at the little snakes from the neutral families around him:

"Opportunities don't wait for anyone!"

Thinking that they had gone to the United States for their honeymoon during the summer vacation...the honeymoon mother and her new husband——

Having observed Jian Yu's words and deeds for many years, Brace felt that he had no worries and was just waiting to get started!

The revitalization of the Zabini family starts with him!

Seeing the two members of the neutral pure-blood family stand up one after another and express their firm support for Jian Yu——

There was even more commotion at the Slytherin table!

Daphne nodded to Blaise and glanced at the closed door.

She knew why Jian Yu hadn't shown up yet. She would never do anything useless...

She must be silently observing everything that happened at the Slytherin table!

She is assessing the Greengrass' loyalty to her...

She is watching to see who will join her side...and stand firmly by her side even when she is not around...

She is choosing who will be her companions in creating the wizarding future!

Only these people are worthy of her protection and worthy of following her!

"Think about what you should choose, you guys!" Daphne turned her head sharply and spoke to the little snakes at the other half of the table, "Everyone knows how much harassment you have encountered from those people during the summer vacation! If you want to be protected, let Yu see your attitude!"

"Don't forget who has maintained the stability of Slytherin over the years, who has won five years of honor for us, who has made people from other colleges respect us, and who has helped us make friends with like-minded people!"

Soon after she finished speaking, the door of the auditorium was suddenly pushed open.

There were many figures at the door, but Daphne could only see one figure wearing a black hospital uniform and a silver-green scarf...

That was Jian Yu!
