HP: Becoming a Maiden Heartthrob

So under the questioning of Kerston and Cedric, Nalilian confessed.

She also made up a story about Harry accidentally discovering that Ron's rat Scabbers was actually a middle-aged wizard, who looked like Peter Pettigrew, a friend in Harry's parents' photo.

Later, Harry accidentally learned about his parents' experience and discovered that Peter Pettigrew was the Death Eater who framed Sirius Black and his godfather escaped to the Weasley family.

He told this to Headmaster Dumbledore, who captured Peter Pettigrew and vindicated Sirius.

"So the man Harry was talking about was Peter Pettigrew," Narilean concluded.

Harry and Dumbledore nodded.

After hearing this story, Cedric looked at Dumbledore with an extremely subtle look.

It would be a gross dereliction of duty on the part of the Headmaster if word got out that an Animagus had been admitted to Hogwarts.

Especially since this Peter Pettigrew was a mad Death Eater who set fire to an entire street.

Kersten stared at Nallylian.

She has become a great liar again.

If that's what she said, then why did Potter come to her?

For Potter, how could an adoptive father whom he had never met make him so excited?

She must have done something to make Potter so excited.

But...what right did he have to question her?

Kersten chose to accept the lie.

Seeing that they had gotten away with it, Dumbledore said goodbye to them because of something, and Narellean and Harry got together to discuss Sirius.

“I feel like he would be a very open-minded godfather,” Nalilian said.

A young man who escaped from the Black family, which is proud of Slytherin, and fled to Gryffindor, which is hostile to Slytherin, and also formed a small group in Gryffindor, has an open mind and fierce behavior.

Especially since Voldemort, the terrorist leader, was still in the wizarding world at the time, and Slytherin's status in Hogwarts was much higher than it is now.

"Wouldn't that be a bit stupid," Harry said uncertainly.

Since his adoptive father was wronged, why did he never seek redress for himself?

Narilean choked and looked at Harry with her mouth open, unable to say anything to refute Sirius.

To be honest, she had no idea why Sirius didn't stand up for herself.

He was the one who knew best that he was being wronged.

Narilean only knew that Sirius was good to Harry.

But now it seems that Harry and his adoptive father still have a lot to get used to.

The two little wizards chatted until late at night, and then Kersten took Narellean back to the house. Harry watched Narellean leave and called out to Cedric who was about to leave.

"Senior Diggory."

He looked at the brown-haired young man in front of him and asked a question he really wanted to ask.

"Is there a conflict between Nalilian and Senior Ende?"

He always noticed that Senior Ende avoided Nalilian.

Especially since he knew how good Senior Ende was to Na Lilian, he didn't want to see Na Lilian lose Senior Ende.

Cedric paused, he actually noticed it.

Although Kerston always covered it up in front of him, his subconscious action of avoiding Nali could not be concealed.

But it doesn't seem like the two of them had a conflict.

Lillian always stuck close to Kerston, and Kerston's eyes followed Lillian.

Cedric could only whisper, "Maybe."

There might be conflict between them, but Lillian wouldn't get hurt around Kerston.

Even if that really happened, Kersten would leave Lillian, and he would protect Lillian.

Back in the room, Narilean just sat down. Thinking that Harry would live with Sirius in the future, she felt relieved and couldn't help smiling.

"So happy?" Kersten asked when he saw her smile.

"It's like a wish has been fulfilled, Kersten," Narilian said.

She was inspired by Harry's courage and kindness, and escaped from her cowardly self. She was also happy that she could do something for him.

Hearing the joy in her tone, Kerston paused and tried to hold back his words as usual, but the bitterness in his heart still made him ask with difficulty, "So you like him?"

"No, Kersten," Narilean shook her head, "Harry and I are just friends."

She admitted that she had liked Harry at one time, and his brilliance in Gryffindor was so dazzling that it even shone on her.

But as Kersten said, he was sensitive.

If you like such a sensitive person, he will be hurt and she will be hurt too.

It's good to be friends now, she can still help him.

Kerston's fingertips trembled, and the relief in his heart made him feel disgusted.

But he still asked, "Do you hate me for telling you not to contact Potter?"

"Of course not," Nalilian looked at Kston and smiled helplessly, "Why would you think so, Kston?"

He didn't like her playing with Harry, and she certainly wouldn't play with Harry in front of him.

Since she and Harry were friends and Kersten was her brother, she would definitely base her thinking on his.

Kersten unzipped his collar, and the disgust for the joy budding within him filled his chest, so bitter that it made him nauseous.

"Actually, Potter is not bad," he said with a twist of his mouth.

Although he felt that the other party's behavior of running away from home was reckless, he had behaved well in recent days.

Especially his care for Lillian, he hadn't realized that this Potter was quite considerate.

"Yes," Narilean said, looking at him, "So I must make it up to Harry for asking him to help write the introduction."

In order to promote this book, Kerston accepted Harry, whom he originally resisted, and he must have felt uncomfortable.

He has always been arrogant, but this time he lowered his head.

Then make it up to Harry.

"I will," Kersten replied, but he couldn't bear Nalilian's gaze any longer, "I'll go wash up first."

Nalilian watched Kston walk to the bathroom and inexplicably felt that he was about to escape. Thinking of Kston's avoidance of her in the past few days, she sighed.

He must have encountered something bad and may regret bringing her out.

Maybe it's with the stock market, or maybe it's with mom and dad.

He is compromising with reality and life and becoming smooth.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Although she also wanted to see Kersten always maintain the same high spirits as when he smashed Mr. Finch's head, she couldn't see him like that forever.

She always leaves.

So now seeing him become more mature, she felt fortunate that at least for a while, she could still stand by his side and provide him with help.

Thinking of this, Nalilian stood up and felt hot under her body.

She paused and frowned.

It's menarche.
