Harry returns from Hogwarts Legacy

Chapter 80 Old Friend
The spell shot out from the tip of the wand in Harry's hand. The unique light of the Cruciatus Curse even dyed the surrounding forest a strange and eerie scarlet.

The black-robed figure who was hit first was unable to dodge and was hit directly by the Cruciatus Curse.

It let out a howl that was not possible for a human to make, as if a stone was scratching glass, making people's teeth ache.

The figure that had been swooping down towards Harry seemed like a kite with a broken string, floating slowly and rapidly into the dense forest.

The pain on Harry's forehead had disappeared - or rather, he transferred part of the pain to the black figure through Cruciatus Curse.

He was breathing heavily. The feeling just now was really uncomfortable. If it weren't for the almost torturous pain that made it impossible for him to concentrate, he might not have used the Unforgivable Curse like the Cruciatus Curse, but a smaller spell that was easier to accept.

"Harry...Harry? Is that you?"

The hollow and weak voice sounded in Harry's ears again.

"Who?" Harry raised his head suddenly, and he did not forget to take out a bottle of invigorating potion from his arms, pushed open the stopper with his thumb, and drank it all in one gulp.

A warm feeling spread from his throat to every part of his body, and his spirits became much more lifted.

There are side effects to using the Unforgivable Curses, but Harry's side effects seem to be much lighter than many people's. There is no soul-tearing pain, nor any churning negative emotions - he just feels a little mentally exhausted after each use.

"Harry, I'm here."

Following the sound, Harry fixed his sights on the unicorn lying on the ground.

She was really beautiful, and even her long legs curled up in pain could not conceal her beauty; her mane was spread on the black roots, white like pearls.

"You, you can talk?" Harry frowned, "Are you a unicorn?"

He walked forward, pulled out two bottles of invigorating potion from his pocket, unscrewed the stoppers and poured them into the unicorn's mouth.

Then he put Dawima's wand into his pocket, took out his own wand, and pointed it at the wound on the unicorn that was still bleeding silver-white blood.

"Episkey!"

However, it was of no use. The hideous wound still showed no signs of healing, and blood was still flowing, along the white hair, onto the ground.

"Harry, it's no use."

The unicorn's voice sounded again, and she whined twice, looking at Harry with tender eyes.

"Vivi will be very angry if she sees you using the Cruciatus Curse again, Harry."

Harry stood up suddenly and asked in disbelief: "You, who are you?"

He didn't remember when he first met unicorns - damn, these unicorns seemed to be sexist and never got close to boys like him and Omnis. Instead, they got along well with Vivi, Cassandra, and Pabbie.

Could it be that... the unicorn in front of them was once their friend?
"I think you should feed me some blood-replenishing potion instead." said the unicorn.

Harry hurriedly searched for the blood-replenishing potion in his arms. He took out two bottles bought from the potion shop, thought for a moment and put them back, then found two bottles of potion he got from Professor Snape, which were brewed by Snape himself.

Only potions made by a potion master can have the best recovery effect.

No matter if the unicorn in front of him was a friend of Vivi and the others, or a stranger, Harry couldn't bear to watch her lose her life like this. After the unicorn drank two bottles of blood-replenishing potion, some light returned to its eyes, and although the hideous wound was still bleeding, it was no longer flowing as heavily as before.

"This is a very vicious curse," said the unicorn. "The man just now... he also has a strong curse aura on him. I don't know who he is, but he is definitely a very scary and powerful dark wizard, just like Victor Rookwood."

Following the unicorn's reminder, Harry indeed discovered the dark magic curse on the wound.

He picked up the wand again, pointed it at the wound, and recited the spell invented by Vivi to cleanse the curse.

"Purusor!"

The effect is very significant, the black magic curse on the wound is slowly fading.

Harry was delighted and continued to use the purification spell to dispel the traces of the curse on the unicorn's wound.

But unfortunately, after the curse reached a critical value, it no longer subsided, but instead stubbornly lingered on the wound.

"Such a spell is useless. It can only be broken by you when you are fifteen, or by Vivi," the unicorn said softly.

Harry then remembered that there was something he hadn't asked the unicorn.

"How do you know who I am? Have I ever seen you before?"

"Of course you have seen me, Harry." A hint of cunning flashed across the unicorn's bright eyes. "We have known each other for more than a hundred years... Oh, it seems that you have successfully returned to a hundred years later, and I haven't said congratulations to you yet."

With that, the unicorn pulled himself together and stood up again.

She walked around Harry twice, nuzzled his clothes with her nose, and had a very human smile on her face.

"Ah, I didn't notice it just now, but you've actually returned to your childhood. As I recall, you should be around the same age as when you were just sorted, right?"

"Well, yes." Harry scratched his head. "I don't know why I went back a hundred years and returned to the age of eleven, but... as you can see, it just happened inexplicably."

"Since you disappeared, the Order of the Phoenix has been dead in name only." The unicorn said softly, with a tone of great regret: "Vivi didn't even go to class. I heard that she wanted to look for you... Many people said that you were dead. Even Principal Black advised her to accept this fact, but she disappeared after thanking everyone for their kindness. Since then, I have never heard of her again."

Harry's heart skipped a beat.

Is it...

Is Vivi really trapped somewhere?
Or is he trapped in the turbulence of time?

Otherwise, why hasn't she shown up to look for me until now?

"Well, what about Sebastian and Omnis?" Harry asked again.

"The two of them..." The unicorn thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "The last time I heard about them was in seventh grade, but there was no news after that."

Harry's mind was in a mess. He was wondering where Sebastian and Omines had gone. Could it be that they were imprisoned in Azkaban because Solomon's affair was exposed?
"Don't you want to listen to other people?" The unicorn lowered its neck and tilted its head to look at Harry, "For example... for example, Cassandra?"
