Became good friends with the Boy Who Lived

Aeris and Hagrid ran in the dark for more than an hour before Hagrid stopped Aeris.

"That's about it, Aeris!" Hagrid said, "Stop. The Ministry of Magic won't react that quickly, and there's really no need to chase us two in the middle of the night. The Gorgon is running wildly... That old guy Dalish is really ruthless!"

"Why would that old toad Umbridge come to arrest you in the middle of the night, Hagrid?" Aris asked.

"They believe I know where Mr. Dumbledore is," Hagrid answered gruffly, "They've been interrogating me about it. Haha... Don't say I don't know. Even if I knew, could I tell them? Mr. Dumbledore will definitely return to Hogwarts soon. Remember my words, Aris!"

"I have no doubt!" said Aeris.

Hagrid took Aeris to hide in a secret cave. Aeris took out several bottles of healing potions from his pocket and asked Hagrid to drink them. Aeris also drank some aging potions according to the dosage, and then began to set up protective magic in the hiding place. Various expelling spells, protective spells, barriers... were skillfully arranged by Aeris around the cave.

When Aeris returned to the cave, Hagrid had already built a fire and was making tea. He was also roasting bacon and sausages on the fire. Aeris waved his wand and turned two stones into two chairs, one large and one small. He handed the large chair to Hagrid and then sat down opposite Hagrid across the fire.

Hagrid wrapped the bacon and sausage in the toasted bread and handed it to Aeris.

After taking it, Aeris began to eat it in big mouthfuls. "Why is Norrington not here? Hagrid!" Aeris asked vaguely while chewing the bread in his mouth. "If it were here, those people wouldn't even have the courage to approach your house."

"I let him keep Grawp company in the woods," Hagrid said after taking a sip of hot tea. "With Norrington around, he can keep Grawp from running out of the woods. Grawp likes Norrington very much."

"That was when Norrington was stronger than him," Aerys said. "The bruises all over your body show that your brother doesn't like you at all..."

"Don't say that, mate! He's already starting to rely on me," Hagrid said. "The Forbidden Forest isn't peaceful right now. The old mules are rioting. They think of the Forbidden Forest as their territory. Norrington is here to help restrain them. In the first few days after Grawp came, the centaurs kept trying to drive Grawp out of the Forbidden Forest."

"Why are they rioting?" Aeris asked curiously, "Haven't you always been at peace with them?"

"Because Firenze," Hagrid said sullenly, "Firenze agreed to help Mr. Dumbledore, and was considered a traitor to their tribe by those old mules. When they were about to execute Firenze, I saved him, and because of that I lost the friendship of the centaurs. Humph... As if I were so precious, these centaurs... are too arrogant!"

After enjoying the midnight snack, Hagrid yawned loudly, but when Aeris took out a tent from his pocket, even the calm Hagrid became a little uneasy.

"You...you...you..." Hagrid said in astonishment, "No wonder you weren't surprised when I took something out of my pocket. It turns out you're more prepared than I am. Who would carry a tent in their pocket all day long?"

"It's better to be prepared," said Aeris as he set up the tent. "I've set up an alarm spell, so there's no need to keep watch. Have a good rest, Hagrid. You've had enough this day."

But Hagrid still ordered Fang to wait at the entrance of the cave. Aeris took out a large piece of grilled steak from the tent and threw it to Fang. Fang took it, carried it to the entrance of the cave, and happily began to chew the steak.

The space in the tent was very large, and it had everything you needed, including a kitchen, a living room, and two bedrooms. Aeris gave the room with the big bed to Hagrid, and went into the smaller room, changed into pajamas, lay on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

The next day, it was almost noon when Aeris woke up from his sleep. When he came to the kitchen, Hagrid was busy preparing lunch.

"Awake? Aeris!" Hagrid greeted. "I've checked the surroundings. This place is very secret and not easy to be discovered. Let's hide here for a while. It won't be too long. Mr. Dumbledore will solve all the troubles soon. All we have to do is enjoy afternoon tea and wait for Mr. Dumbledore to come to us..."

Aris also thought that he would have to live a wandering life with Hagrid for a while, but after dinner, as he was sitting by the campfire with Hagrid drinking tea and chatting, Aris suddenly heard the voices of Hermione and Neville asking for help in his mind.

Aeris smiled calmly, took out the aging potion from his pocket, pinched the dosage and took a sip, then said to Hagrid, "Hagrid, maybe someone needs my help, I'll go over and take a look... I can go alone, I can be smaller and it's easier for me to move."

"Then be careful," Hagrid said, "If you can't solve it, remember to run away!"

"It shouldn't be a big deal," Aeris said easily, "Maybe I'll be back soon. I'll leave the tent to you. If anything unexpected happens," Aeris pointed to a green button outside the tent, "Press this button and the tent can be folded up quickly."

Aeris picked up a handy stone from the ground, closed his eyes to sense Hermione's position, turned the stone into a portkey, grabbed the stone, and disappeared on the spot with a "whoosh".

When Eris appeared again, he was in an empty space. The space was very large, with a platform in the middle. On the platform was a tall, ancient door. The curtains on the door moved without wind, and there seemed to be someone whispering behind the curtains.

It was quite lively here now, many people were waving their wands and dueling, lights of various colors were flying everywhere, explosions were heard one after another, and Aeris had no time to think about it, waving his wand and whispering: "Summon the Summoner..."

Large pieces of black flocs fluttered around, twisted, and deformed, turning into various giant snakes: pythons, anacondas, king cobras, pit vipers, rattlesnakes...

Aeris made a "hissing" sound from his mouth, and these giant snake spirits, the shortest of which was fifteen feet long, attacked the Death Eaters like soldiers who had received orders. Yes, the two sides in the battle were the Death Eaters and Aeris's companions.

A crazy laugh reached Aris's ears. A dark-skinned woman was torturing Neville with the Cruciatus Curse. Aris threw the stone in his hand at the woman.

The woman's reaction speed was also extremely fast. With a wave of her wand, she smashed the stone into powder.

Aeris' muscles began to bulge, he lowered his center of gravity, and stared at the woman. Neville curled up on the ground, gasping in pain.

"Little Neville, someone is here to save you?" The woman imitated the voice of a little girl in a pretentious manner, and then cast a stunning spell at Aeris.

Eris dodged, then instantly crossed a distance of more than ten feet and appeared in front of the woman. Eris first hit the woman's stomach hard with his shoulder, then went around behind the woman, hugged the woman's waist, and threw her backwards with all his strength, causing the woman to fall headfirst onto the shiny floor.

As the woman screamed in pain, Aries stomped his foot on the wrist of the woman's hand holding the wand. A crisp sound of bone cracking was heard, and Aries kicked her wand away. But this was not the end. Aries used the cross-arm method to break the woman's other intact arm. After the same crisp "crack" sound, the woman could only lie on the ground in pain, twisting back and forth.

Aeris sat on the woman's belly and said with a smile, "Nice to meet you, Bellatrix Lestrange. This physical torture of mine must taste good, right? Are you satisfied with my hospitality?"

"Get off me, you filthy mudblood!" Bellatrix Lestrange screamed in pain, "I won't let you touch me. I am a direct descendant of the noble Black family. Do you know what flows in my veins?"

"Iced pumpkin juice?" Aris teased with a smile.

"It's the wizard blood of the noble Black family...ah..." Before Bellatrix Lestrange could finish her words, Aeris punched her hard on the nose. Then Aeris punched her left and right, one punch, one punch, and another. It was unknown how long the punch lasted. Bellatrix Lestrange's once pretty face had been completely deformed by Aeris.

Endless murderous intent surged in Aeris' chest. He took out his wand, pointed it at the deformed face, and chanted the spell with a distorted expression: "Avada Keda Wah..." A beam of green light hit the deformed face, and Bellatrix Lestrange was completely lifeless.

Aires gasped for breath, suppressing the discomfort of killing someone for the first time, and quickly took out a bottle of potion from his pocket. After drinking it in one gulp, his twisting stomach finally calmed down.

Neville seemed to have recovered a little, but his legs were still trembling. He walked over, supported Aes, and tried to help him up.

Aeris pointed his wand at Neville's trembling legs, "The end, the end..." Aeris whispered softly, and Neville's legs stopped trembling.

"Thank you, Aeris! For a moment, I saw my dead grandfather..." Neville's nose was still bleeding and his speech was a little unclear.

"Where's Hermione?" Aeris asked, healing Neville's bloody nose with a tap of his wand.

"She was knocked unconscious," Neville said, "You don't know, she fought against more than a dozen Death Eaters alone..."

The Death Eaters at the scene were restrained by the giant snake spirit summoned by Aries. As long as Aries gave the order, these Death Eaters would be killed instantly.

But a huge crisis loomed over Aesius. As long as Aesius decided to kill, neither he nor his companions would survive.

"What's wrong?" Aeris muttered to himself. He saw Draco and his father, Lucius, still confronting each other in the distance. He saw Cedric waving at him. He saw Luna and Ginny taking care of the unconscious Hermione in the distance. He saw Harry walking quickly towards him. He saw the door open and Sirius, Mad-Eye Moody, Tonks and Remus running in. He saw Voldemort Apparating...

"Get out of the way, Neville..." Aris shouted and pushed Neville away. A green light was flying towards Aris' chest. Aris wanted to dodge, defend, or fight back, but he couldn't. Voldemort bound Aris with some spell without him knowing. Only then did Aris realize that he was just an ordinary man living in an age without geniuses.

All the past events flashed through Aeris' mind. Although he lived in an orphanage for three years, Aeris had a wonderful childhood. He had adoptive parents who treated him very well, allowing him to experience the warmth of family and grow up carefree. He also had a quirky sister, good buddies, and met the person he liked.

"I haven't tasted Hermione's lips yet," Aris thought, "I'm sorry, Dad and Mom, I have to let you send your daughter off..."

Aries closed his eyes, but something crashed into Aries' arms. Aries and that "thing" flew up together. Aries subconsciously hugged it. It was a person. It was someone who blocked Voldemort's killing curse for Aries.

"No..." Aires and the man fell heavily to the ground. Aires opened his eyes and saw Harry lying in Aires' arms with a pale face and eyes closed.

Aris's mind was blank. He sat on the ground, at a loss, fixing Harry's hair, glasses and clothes. His sanity gradually returned. There was a part of Voldemort's soul in Harry's body, and Voldemort, who had cast the Killing Curse on Harry, could not have remained unscathed.

When Aeris looked at Voldemort, Voldemort was also staggering to his feet from the ground, but there was an extra person in front of Voldemort, a handsome old man in a well-fitting suit and looking angry: Geralt Grindelwald.

“Who allowed you to bully my grandson?” Garrow waved his wand, ice-blue flames rose, and all kinds of magical lights shone. For a moment, the weak Voldemort was beaten back.

It seemed like a lot of people had come to this room, led by Professor Dumbledore, the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, and a group of Aurors and officials from various departments of the Ministry of Magic...

Voldemort's snake face smiled triumphantly at Professor Dumbledore, blocked a spell from Garlotte, then shook his robes, turned into a black curtain, and disappeared completely.

"Come back, you coward!" Gallot roared angrily.

All the people in the Ministry of Magic were stunned, only Connery Fudge muttered to himself: "He is really back..."

Professor Dumbledore and Gelloat quickly came to Aeris and Harry.

"Are you okay? Aes!" Geralt asked with concern, looking at Aes' face carefully.

"It's okay, Grandpa!" said Aeris.

"What's wrong with Harry?" Professor Dumbledore asked.

"Voldemort...Voldemort hit Harry with the Killing Curse!" said Aris.

Sirius came over and slumped on the ground, muttering to himself: "Impossible... This is not real... This is a dream... That's right... I must be dreaming..."

"Are you absolutely certain that it was Voldemort himself who did it?" said Professor Dumbledore.

Sirius looked at Professor Dumbledore in disbelief, and Aeris simply replied, "I'm 100 percent sure!"

Professor Dumbledore smiled easily, and Sirius asked anxiously, "What's going on, Dumbledore? My godson is dead, how can you still laugh?"

"Ouch..." Harry in Aris' arms groaned in pain. Sirius was overjoyed and stared at Harry's face.

Harry's eyes slowly opened and he said in agony, "It hurts! I feel like half of my ribs are broken... Sirius? Are you dead too?"

Sirius hugged Harry into his arms, "It hurts... it hurts... it hurts..." Harry shouted, "Be gentle, Sirius! Can a dead person still feel pain?"

"Boy! You're still alive!" Sirius shouted happily.
