Harry Potter: This senior is pretty strong

Chapter 5 Dumbledore's Invitation to School

After hearing Hermione's words, the Grangers exchanged a glance, both seeing worry and helplessness in each other's eyes.

It seems there's another wizard child in the family.

They had actually had a premonition about this, after all, Hermione was just like that, and they already had experience with this.

The Grangers knew that Hermione was different from others when she was very young, and that many strange things happened to her, which troubled them greatly.

Later, a professor from the magical world came and explained everything to them, saying that Hermione would go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at the appropriate age, which is 11, so that she would be able to learn to control magic.

While at the zoo, the Grangers had vaguely sensed something. At the time, they thought it was Hermione, but now it seems that it was all because of Qin Yu.

However, looking at the fallen tree, they knew that Qin Yu's destructive power was clearly greater than Hermione's.

The Grangers both thought to themselves, "Let 11 years old come quickly, so these children can learn magic properly, otherwise their hearts can't take it."

“Qin, could you move the tree?” Mr. Granger asked tentatively.

Qin Yu shook his head and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I can't use my abilities at will yet."

“Well, I should have expected this answer,” Mr. Granger said, starting the car, and then added, “Then we’ll just have to go back to the previous intersection and take a detour.”

So Mr. Granger drove a long way around before finally getting home.

As for the tree, there was nothing they could do but leave it to the nearby residents to deal with.

……

In Qin Yu's limited understanding, there has always been a regulatory body in the magical world that monitors both the wizarding and Muggle worlds. Of course, the most important thing is to prevent wizards from influencing the Muggle world in order to maintain a certain balance of order.

This department is the legendary Ministry of Magic.

Now that the Obscurial power within him has gone out of control and he has even uprooted a tree, it will inevitably alarm the Ministry of Magic.

He didn't know if he would be taken away by the Ministry of Magic, and could only wait anxiously.

……

There are many wizards living in the Muggle world.

This scene at the zoo was witnessed by a passing wizard, Professor McGonagall!

When Professor McGonagall was at the zoo, she transformed into a tabby cat and wandered around observing Harry and his family.

Dumbledore said that as long as Harry lived with his uncle's family, no Death Eaters would attack him.

But she would still sneak over occasionally to check on them, and she resisted the urge to teach the Dursleys a lesson on several occasions.

This time, in addition to seeing Harry Potter release the python, she also unexpectedly discovered Qin Yu and Hermione.

So she Apparated back to Hogsmeade Village near Hogwarts and walked into the school—since Apparition is not allowed inside—to tell Headmaster Dumbledore what she had seen that day.

Harry's ability to speak Parseltongue had already surprised Dumbledore, and knowing that a 10-year-old Muggle could be so powerful, he felt that this was probably going to be another tricky situation.

Dumbledore decided to see the child for himself.

……

"Qin, I solved this problem before you!" Hermione said with a smug look on her face.

Ever since Qin Yu came to Granger's house, Hermione's academic excellence has been in jeopardy. Whether it's math, English, science, or history, Hermione has been outshone by this guy Qin. The only subject that gives her any confidence is art, and that's only because Qin Yu's drawings are so terrible.

"Yeah, great job." Qin Yu said to the girl somewhat absentmindedly.

Yes, he was a bit restless today, feeling like something was about to happen, and he had no time to care about the little thoughts of a 10-year-old girl.

Just then, his eyes suddenly widened, revealing a look of surprise.

—Because he saw an old man with a white beard floating outside the window, and the old man was smiling and nodding kindly at him.

"Deng...Deng..." Qin Yu called out excitedly.

Hermione tilted her head, puzzled, and asked, "Deng? Deng what? Qin, what's wrong?"

Qin Yu turned to Hermione beside him and asked, "Can't you see him?"

The little girl looked around blankly and said, "Who do I see?"

Qin Yu recognized him as the headmaster of Hogwarts.

Seeing Dumbledore finally put his mind at ease. He thought to himself, "Finally, someone has stepped in to solve the problem. I don't have to be so anxious anymore."

Dumbledore walked in through the window, waved gently, and Hermione suddenly yawned, then lay down on the table and fell asleep.

"Don't worry, Hermione's fine. I just let her sleep for a while so we can talk more easily," Dumbledore reassured her.

"I know you're a kind person and you definitely wouldn't do anything to Hermione," Qin Yu said, offering a small compliment.

“Oh? You know me?” Dumbledore was somewhat surprised.

“Because… Hermione told me about the wizarding world, and you are a very famous person in the wizarding world.”

Anyway, the girl is already asleep, so she won't know if I'm the scapegoat.

“Well, it seems I can skip the self-introduction,” Dumbledore said with a smile.

Before Qin Yu could say anything, Dumbledore cut to the chase and asked, "Child, you are not an ordinary person, do you know that?"

"...Actually, I know a little bit, but I only know that there is a power in my body that is difficult to control, and strange supernatural events often occur... You came here this time because of that big tree, right? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." Qin Yu said this with a pitiful look on his face.

"The tree? Oh, it seems that's another troublesome matter." Dumbledore looked surprised upon hearing this.

"Uh, I didn't know..." Qin Yu said somewhat awkwardly.

“Haha, child, don’t panic. My purpose in coming here is to help you solve the problem you’re facing,” Dumbledore said, his eyes becoming deep.

He carefully examined the little boy with the Asian face in front of him, probing the power within his body.

"So that's how it is. It's been a long time since I've encountered this..." After a while, Dumbledore said in a rather complicated tone.

Seeing his expression, Qin Yu immediately became frightened: "Professor Dumbledore, what exactly is the power within me?"

"That's a powerful and dangerous force called the Obscurus. It hasn't appeared for decades... But don't worry, with proper guidance, you'll be fine," Dumbledore reassured him gently.

Qin Yu kept wondering whether he should tell him his story directly.

Dumbledore, as if he could see through everything, slowly walked to Qin Yu's side and said, "Child, what happened in the past is in the past. We should deal with what is happening now and what will happen in the future. Since you have chosen this power, you must face it bravely and truthfully."

Of course, Dumbledore only had a vague premonition, which told him that the little boy in front of him would be a key, a ray of light, and would bring infinite variables and hope to the future.

Qin Yu looked into Dumbledore's eyes. Although the old man's face was full of wrinkles, he was full of spirit, and his words gave people a great sense of security, which was more convincing than in the movie.

Dumbledore felt he needed to take some concrete steps to reassure the boy, so he said, "In a few days, someone will come to take you to Hogwarts, where professors will teach you how to use magic. Would you like to?"

As expected, the system prompted for a choice:

"Ding! Dear host, you are at a crossroads in your life. Will you become a lone adventurer, or choose to rely on friends and companions? This is a question that requires careful consideration. Please make your choice now—"

[One] Refuse Dumbledore's invitation to study at the university, and you will be rewarded with 10 Galleons and the complete book "Magic from Beginner to Expert";

[Two] Accept Dumbledore's invitation to study at university, and you will be rewarded with 1000 Galleons.

Looking at the reward of 10 Galleons, Qin Yu was still somewhat tempted. After all, with this money and the so-called complete book of "Magic from Beginner to Expert", he might not necessarily do badly. At least with the help of the system, he might be able to level up step by step and reach the pinnacle of life.

However, Qin Yu felt that one of his purposes in coming to this world was to experience life in the magical world, especially school life, which was an experience he couldn't miss.

After considering for a moment, Qin Yu smiled and bowed slightly to Dumbledore, saying, "Thank you, Professor Dumbledore. I am honored to be able to study at Hogwarts School!"

"Ding! The host has chosen to accept Dumbledore's invitation to study, and is rewarded with 1000 Galleons! Your new adventure is about to begin. We hope this reward will allow you to purchase enough school supplies. Finally, we wish you a pleasant learning experience and academic success!"

"This system is quite good at saying nice things," Qin Yu thought to himself.

"Well, welcome to Hogwarts!" Dumbledore said, pulling a letter from his wizarding robes.

He handed the letter to Qin Yu and said with a smile, "I had a premonition that there might be an extra student, so I carried the admission notice with me. This way, I won't have to ask the owl to deliver it again. After all, every year there are lost owls that deliver letters to the wrong places."

Qin Yu took the letter, opened it, and saw an admission notice with his name on it.

This made him uncontrollably excited. This was something that many Harry Potter fans had dreamed of in their previous lives. He never thought that he, a casual fan, would have the day to fulfill their wishes.

Qin Yu looked at the kind and amiable Dumbledore, sniffed, and stretched out his arms to hug him.

"Thank you, Professor Dumbledore. Your arrival has made me feel incredibly at ease."

Dumbledore responded by patting his head: "Son, the future is promising!"

After saying this, Dumbledore vanished in a phantom.

It was as if no one had ever been here; the room was very quiet!

Hermione, however, had a sweet smile on her face, as if she were having a sweet dream.
