396 Temporarily weakened magic, Draco Malfoy

In the unknown space, Karan once again came to the Forbidden Lake.

He is extremely familiar with the Forbidden Lake - as the only person who has never forgotten the ruins of the Forbidden Lake, Karan always remembers the "Sleeping Dragon, Do Not Disturb" on the stone door, as well as the unopened stone door on the third floor of the two huge statues. .

This is the answer.

This is where Callan's hope lies in resolving the war.

Remains of the Forbidden Lake.

After asking Harry repeatedly, Karan finally understood that the door to the Forbidden Lake ruins had never been opened in this world.

This meant that the stone door of the ruins had not disappeared, and he finally had the opportunity to explore the ruins again.

Perhaps this time, he could finally figure out what was in the final stone gate.

That is the final legacy of Slytherin and Gryffindor, and will also help Callan solve the wizarding war that has lasted for decades in this world.

After listening to what Karan said stumblingly, Hermione looked at him worriedly and asked, "But, can you still act with us?"

For the trio, this is the most urgent problem to solve.

This time, Callan was finally punished by the crown, and he felt the pain from the soul that Principal Dumbledore once said in his own generation.If it were a user whose will was not strong enough, the pain alone could turn the other person into a lunatic.

Fortunately, Karan is a born closed-minded person.

He didn't rush to answer Hermione's question, but closed his eyes.

After a while, the color gradually returned to Karan's pale face, but his whole body still looked like he had just been fished out of the swimming pool - all of this was due to the cold sweat he had shed during the punishment just now. His clothes were soaked with sweat.

"It should be fine now."

Karan tried to speak calmly and said: "The pain on my body has been relieved a lot, but it will be difficult for me to cast powerful magic again in the future."

"It seems that I can only protect me from you in the future."

He finally said with a smile, but Hermione, who saw all this, felt bitter in her heart.

"You really think of yourself as our uncle."

After muttering this in a low voice, Hermione quickly stood up and found a clean towel to help Karan wipe off the sweat that had not yet drained off his face.

Ron, who was always supporting Karan, also said worriedly: "I almost thought you were going to die just now, but this is not possible. If you die, no one will help me teach Fred and George a lesson. .”

At this time, Aberforth, who had deceived Effias Dorje for a long time, also hurried back to the guest room. As soon as he saw Karan's appearance, he knew what had just happened - the same situation had happened to him. It happened to my brother.

"Someone else should use the crown."

He said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "Even if it were me, I would be better than a brat like you."

"Okay." Karan stood up, but his body shook slightly, and Ron quickly supported him again.

"Thank you, but now we should really think about how to sneak into Hogwarts - do you have any ideas?"

This question stumped several people.

In the original timeline, Aberforth stayed in the Hog's Head all the time, so he and Dumbledore were able to secretly find a secret passage from the Hog's Head to the Room of Requirement.

But in today's world, Dumbledore didn't become the Headmaster of Hogwarts, and Aberforth didn't spend much time at the Hog's Head, so this method definitely wouldn't work.

Karan turned his attention to the trio, thinking that even if they couldn't help him, he still knew a few clues to the secret passage.

Unfortunately, Harry's next words shattered Karan's luck.

"We do know a few secret passages."

He looked around at Ron and Hermione, and then said with a bitter look on his face: "But we have long heard that those secret passages are no longer safe. Even if they have not all been destroyed, there may be dementors stationed in the remaining ones. In several secret passages.”

Kahlan forgot about the length of the war and the fact that no one could stop Voldemort anymore.

Without anyone alerting him, Voldemort must have figured out the secrets hidden in Hogwarts, and the secret passages were no exception.

But this way they won't be able to sneak into Hogwarts secretly. The dementors are not only stationed in the secret passage, they will also wander in Hogsmeade village during curfew time, as well as in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. At the entrance - now the entire Hogwarts has long been controlled by the mysterious man's power, and even the invisibility cloak cannot avoid the dementors' search - these ghosts have no eyes, they don't need to use their eyes to see, Just the ability to sense emotions is enough to detect the existence of several people.

"Then we don't have any options at all."

Karan said with a frown.

They don't know whether the current Voldemort has solved the threat brought to him by Herbo. It is the time when they urgently need to seize the time to find hope.

Once Voldemort no longer has Herbo to worry about, his next goal will definitely become Harry the savior. Perhaps even Dumbledore and Credence hiding in Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry will not let him go. , and William, little Pukechi, and the students and professors there...

And then there's Hogwarts... and the entire wizarding world.

By then, no one will be able to deal with the threat posed by Voldemort.

The plan has obviously turned around, but this feeling of being powerless is really uncomfortable.

Just when a few people were thinking hard, an inquiring voice suddenly sounded.

"Hey, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation..."

Effias Dorje appeared at the door with a lot of freshly cut bread slices and pumpkin juice in his hand, probably specially prepared for the big man like Ron.

"But I seem to hear that you are planning to return to Hogwarts?"

After seeing Harry nodding blankly, a smile appeared on Effias Dorje's face, and he said cheerfully: "You should really have told me about this earlier - maybe I can find a way to do it." Let you sneak into the school, after all, we have been waiting for you to come back, Harry."

After hearing these words, Harry felt guilty again in his heart, especially since he had just witnessed Kahlan receiving the punishment of the crown, and the guilt was even deeper.

But Effias Dorje did not notice this, and he continued: "Draco Malfoy - Harry, I remember he was your classmate and roommate in the same college? It is said that he was more than once A gathering to support you was secretly called in the school. If it hadn't been for the protection of his grandfather, Abraxas Malfoy, he would have been caught by the Death Eaters and given a severe lesson."

"If there is a way to contact Draco, maybe he will be willing to help you."

Draco Malfoy?

Callan still remembers the completely different experiences of the Malfoy family in this world - the young Abraxas Malfoy tipped off Voldemort, which prevented Voldemort from being caught by the aware Principal Dippet.

In the later prophecies, two families appeared that fit the prophecy, and they were also two spy families-the Snape family and the Malfoy family.

Severus Snape and Lucius Malfoy were spies placed under Voldemort respectively. Principal Dippet also trusted them, and even more trusted the Malfoy family in this world.

However, Lucius Malfoy betrayed Principal Dippet.

In order to save the life of his newborn son, Draco Malfoy, he took the initiative to tell Voldemort the content of the general prophecy he had learned - which made Voldemort very angry, but for the sake of Abraxas Malfoy For his own sake, he did not kill the Malfoys, but imprisoned them in Azkaban and has not released them until now.

Lucius's betrayal not only left Harry an orphan, but also caused his own children to lose their parents in disguise, and they had never met.

As for Draco Malfoy, it was even more strange. Callan only knew that Harry Snape became a student of Slytherin House, and he became good friends with Draco as a result - even in the later meals. Before the Death Apostles attacked Hogwarts, Draco had specially informed Harry and the others, so they did not cause too many casualties.

It was a completely different world, and the entire Malfoy family's experience had changed.

After hearing this familiar name, Ron muttered dissatisfied: "It's that annoying guy again, can't there be someone else?"

"Ron!"

Harry immediately turned around and stopped him: "Have you forgotten how he helped us last year? If it weren't for Draco's tip, you, me, and Hermione might all have died there. Died during the gangster attack on Hogwarts."

"We all understand this, Harry." Hermione said helplessly, covering her forehead: "But you also have to admit that Principal Dippet did mistrust the Malfoy family at the beginning, which even led to-"

Harry stared closely at Hermione.

Hermione didn't have the heart to talk about the death of Mr. and Mrs. Snape again. She just advised: "We really can't afford such a risk, Harry."

"Don't forget, Callan is here. This is another prophecy, Harry! What if Draco does the same thing as his father? Do we have to watch tragedy happen again? !”

Aberforth had already brought Effias Dorje out of the guest room again, so Hermione told Callan's true identity without any scruples.

Harry stared at the two of them with an ugly expression - Callan had long known that both Ron and Hermione had objections to Harry's friend, and Callan himself would probably only have the same feelings as them - after all Draco's parents were disguised as the murderers of Harry's parents. If it hadn't been for Lucius's betrayal, Snape and Lily might not have died at all.

Seeing the atmosphere gradually becoming tense, Karan could no longer remain silent. He took the initiative and asked: "So what is going on?"

"Harry, how did you become friends with Draco?"

Harry turned to look at Karan. He was silent for a while, and then said as if all his momentum was completely gone: "Because at the beginning, I didn't know the real cause of my parents' death."

He slowly recounted how he met Draco.

After meeting Ron on the train, Harry originally thought he would be sorted into Gryffindor House, where Lily was, but he did not expect to go to Slytherin House, the same school as Snape.

This put a lot of pressure on Harry, making him unable to look directly at his adoptive father, James Potter, for a long time.

Because in this special world, Harry had known about the rumors of a savior related to him in the wizarding world since he was a child, and he had also vaguely heard that Voldemort was from Slytherin College.

This made him repulsive to Slytherin House from the beginning.

But his father, Severus Snape, whom he had never met, had the same origin as him, which made Harry resist and feel a trace of guilt for his father. .

The mixture of two profound emotions drove Harry crazy.

It was also at this time that Harry really got to know Draco Malfoy, another roommate living in the same dormitory.

In Harry's words, Draco has always been an extremely withdrawn boy. He will not take the initiative to speak to anyone, and his attitude is extremely cold.

"It has something to do with his parents."

Harry explained: "After the Malfoys were imprisoned in Azkaban, there was no one to raise Draco. His grandfather Abraxas Malfoy has always been busy and often saw him for long periods of time. No more than a few meetings.”

"Once, I thought about going to the bathroom to be alone for a while, intending to continue convincing myself not to care about other people's eyes."

"But there's someone already in the bathroom - it's Draco Malfoy. He's sitting in a dark corner weeping silently."

"Draco didn't know the real reason why his parents were imprisoned in Azkaban at that time. We revealed our thoughts little by little, and our similar hostility towards the mysterious man made us become friends."

"It's a pity that it didn't last long."

"Another two years later, Draco and I both knew the truth about the whole thing. We had a big fight about it and didn't speak to each other for a long time."

"It wasn't until later when we decided to go to the Ministry of Magic in fifth grade that Draco actually took the initiative to join us. It was only then that we reconciled."

"We all resent You-Know-Who for destroying our family. And Draco's character is not as bad as you say-"

Harry glared at Ron and Hermione respectively: "He rarely talks to others, and he never shows off his life experience. To be honest, he is even ashamed of it and can't speak out - because The other children lived with their families, but he grew up with house elves and didn't even have a single friend."

House-elf?

Karan asked curiously: "What's the name of that house elf?"

Although Harry was a little confused about Callan's question, he still answered: "It's called Dobby, and he has always called himself a servant of the Malfoy family."

"But only I know that Draco has actually regarded him as his friend for a long time. It was just because he was too afraid of other people's eyes that he never said it."
