Harry doesn't want to be a wizard, he wants to be a superhero

Chapter 248 Boggart: Holy crap, what the hell is this?! I'm scared!
The Boggart changed rapidly in front of Harry, but for some reason, it never took a fixed form.

Harry suddenly revoked his mind control and allowed Boggart to enter his mind space.

He suddenly realized that Boggart's mind magic could not invade his mind, so it could not perceive what he was afraid of, which was why it kept changing form but could never settle into a fixed shape.

When the Boggart invaded Harry's mind, the entire Boggart was stunned.

It possesses magical powers of transformation and mind-reading, and its intelligence is naturally not weak. It can also perceive the strength of a wizard by the strength of their soul.

But when it faced this young wizard, it found that its magic suddenly failed, and it was unable to see into the young wizard's mind!

Fortunately, the magic only failed for a short time, and it was soon able to enter the little wizard's mind and explore what was inside.

But just as it was about to transform into the most terrifying thing this little wizard had ever seen, the entire Boggart was suddenly stunned.

Holy crap, what the hell is this?
The most terrifying thing for this little wizard was not anything else, but himself!
Deep within the heart of this young wizard lies a tall, slender figure whose face is exactly the same as the young wizard's!
However, unlike reality, deep within his heart, he was surrounded by chaotic, flowing light.

These chaotic streams of light were like boiling magical vortexes, with seven colors swirling and colliding wildly across his body.

The little wizard deep within his heart released an extremely powerful aura, and a powerful pressure from a higher dimension acted upon Boggart.

Its transformation abruptly ended, and it finally transformed into a twisted, chaotic vortex.

To the others, Boggart was just approaching Harry, slowly transforming into a little wizard enveloped in colorful light, when he suddenly stopped there and then repeated the transformation.

Even when witnessing Harry's greatest fears, Boggart somehow still couldn't conjure up Harry's out-of-control appearance!

Seeing this, Professor Lupin quickly stepped forward, blocking Harry's path. After Boggart transformed into a silver-white orb of light, he lazily said:

"Funny!"

The silvery-white orb of light transformed into a balloon and disappeared. Professor Lupin turned to Harry with some concern and asked:

"Are you alright, Harry?"

“Of course, I feel great.” Harry shrugged.

“But…” Professor Lupin asked, somewhat puzzled, “Why are you afraid of yourself? And what was that look you were just now?”

Professor Lupin was never a particularly curious person, but Harry was not only his student but also the child of his best friend, so he had to ask.

Harry was somewhat surprised by what he feared, but it was also understandable.

Indeed, his most terrifying thing is himself.

Because of the incredibly powerful chaotic magic within him, even a chaotic demon god at the multiverse level would find it difficult to harm him, let alone kill him.

What he fears most now is not anything else, but the chaotic power within his body going out of control and devouring everything around him.

Especially in its completely out-of-control state, the raging chaotic magic shatters intangible things, including the concept of space and time, and even the Time Stone cannot restore what has been destroyed.

From a very young age, he had a recurring dream in which he destroyed everything around him out of control, including Aunt Meryl Streep and Uncle Ben.

He even dreamed that Peter turned to ashes and died in front of him, which was due to the uncontrolled power of chaos within him!

Because he had difficulty controlling the overwhelming power within him when he was young, these dreams have accompanied him ever since, and he still dreams about them from time to time.

That's why he has always been dedicated to improving himself, not only to fulfill the Sorcerer Supreme's last wish and to have enough power to protect the Earth.

Similarly, he needs to have complete control over his power, so that even if he uses all the power of chaos, he will not lose control, but will completely master it!

Apart from the Sorcerer Supreme, no one else knows anything about the power of chaos.

This is not because they are more distant from Harry, but because top-tier forces like Chaos are closely related, and even knowing about them carries enormous risks.

It should be understood that dimensional demons of Mephisto's caliber, existing across infinite dimensions, can still influence a mortal and peer into their mind.

If Mephisto were to learn that a mortal knew about Harry's information, he would definitely go all out to deal with that mortal.

Therefore, for the safety of others, Harry will keep the matter of the Chaos Force a secret.

Harry thought for a moment and gave a rather vague answer:

“I’m sorry, Professor Lupin. Perhaps I felt immense pressure upon learning that I had suddenly become the savior of the wizarding world, which is why I was afraid of myself.”

Whispers from the other young wizards nearby:

"So Harry Potter was under so much psychological pressure? I thought he was very optimistic."

"That's right, he's only in his third year and he's already shouldering the future of the wizarding world. The pressure must be immense!"

The young wizards around Harry looked at him with admiration, while Professor Lupin, Hermione, and Ron wore strange expressions.

Hermione and Ron, needless to say, have spent a lot of time with Harry and know him very well.

How could Harry be someone who is under a lot of pressure and therefore afraid of himself?

He clearly isn't under any pressure at all!

Professor Lu Ping, on the other hand, possesses keen observation skills due to his past experiences and is very good at observing others.

He could naturally sense Harry's insincerity, and it was clear that there were other, deeper reasons behind Harry's fear of him.

However, since Harry was unwilling to bring it up, Professor Lupin did not press the matter further.

Harry is such a mature kid; he can handle his problems very well.

……

After class, Harry, Hermione, and Ron walked together along the stone steps on the lawn back to the Gryffindor common room.

Ron kept praising Professor Lupin; he liked the professor very much.
"Professor Lupin's classes are really interesting. Compared to him, the previous two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors were like two monsters who knew nothing!"

Hermione nodded in agreement: "Yes, Defense Against the Dark Arts is really fun and I can learn a lot from it. But Ancient Runes is also great. Taking Harry's advice and signing up for Ancient Runes is the luckiest thing I've ever done recently!"

Ancient runes, an ancient script, inherently possess power; simply writing ordinary runes can outline magic circles and produce magical effects.

After just two lessons, Hermione was already able to cast some of Kamar-Taj magic by borrowing Harry's power!

"Ancient script?" Ron asked, somewhat puzzled. "How many courses did you take this semester?"

"Just a few doors, I guess," Hermione said casually.

"Wait!" Ron immediately noticed something was wrong. If Hermione had taken many courses, then she couldn't possibly attend every single one.

After all, some classes are held at the same time, and unless Hermione could create clones, she would have to skip some classes.

Ron asked in surprise:

"That's impossible. In ancient times, like the classes in Nirvana and Divination, you had to be in two classrooms at the same time!"

“Don’t be silly, Ron. Nobody can attend two classes at the same time.” Hermione and Harry exchanged glances, their unspoken understanding unspoken.

Although Hermione can create clones, her body and mind cannot withstand the backlash when she cancels the clones; if she does, she will collapse from exhaustion.

So instead of using her clone technique to teach two classes at the same time, she employed a more advanced and dangerous method—the Time-Turner! Inside the library, Hermione removed the gold necklace from her fair neck and handed it to Harry:

"Harry, this is it, a very magical thing, involving time. Can you really analyze it?"

Hermione was confident in Harry, but time was an even more mysterious and abstract concept than space, and even a wizard of Dumbledore's caliber had only a shallow understanding of time.

Harry nodded: "Of course, I have a deeper understanding of time than space."

Harry, who wears the Time Stone year-round, has a deeper understanding of time than of space.

At this moment, he carefully observed the time converter in his palm, his eyes flashing with intricate observation runes.

The time converter is a small, golden hourglass that hangs from a thin gold chain and can be worn around the neck like a necklace.

It contains powerful magic that allows the wearer to travel back in time for a specific period of time.

Each time the hourglass on the time converter is turned, the user can travel back one hour to the past.

The Ministry of Magic imposes strict restrictions on the use of the Time-Turner, and only a select few are permitted to use it with special authorization.

This is because arbitrarily changing time could have serious consequences for the timeline and the order of the entire magical world.

Unlike the timeline of the multiverse, the timeline in the Wizarding World is linear and absolute, with no branching.

Therefore, if a wizard were to travel to the past and alter time, due to the butterfly effect, many people would disappear, and many people who shouldn't exist would appear.

Time is a more dangerous thing than the multiverse compared to the wizarding world!

After observing for a period of time, Harry was surprised to find that the Time-Turner was not as difficult as he had imagined.

Compared to the Time Stone's forceful reversal of time, the Time Converter is significantly more "gentle".

Its function is only twofold: one is to integrate itself into the timeline and then move the user upstream in time.

If the Time Stone directly affects the entire river of time, then the Time Converter only affects itself.

At the same time, the two also have similarities, both relying on the power of the world.

Just as the Time Stone lost its power after leaving its original universe, the Time-Turner also lost its power after leaving the Wizarding World, becoming just an ordinary necklace.

After thoroughly analyzing the Time-Turner, Harry tossed it to Hermione.

Hermione asked expectantly:

"How's it going? Is there any result?"

"That's right, its structure is simpler than I imagined."

"So do you have a way to completely block this method of time travel?" Hermione asked.

That's right. Now that things have come to this point, Hermione naturally knows about Harry and Dumbledore's scheme, and as a Muggle, she fully supports it.

Of course, even Ron, whose father also liked Muggles, was no exception.

Harry has now amassed enough power to challenge the Ministry of Magic with a single command.

However, there is an important problem that needs to be solved before that: the time converter.

If someone were to travel upstream in time using a time-twister, even Dumbledore might not be able to resist.

Although Harry possesses the power of chaos to protect him from the effects of time, he cannot disregard his friends.

Therefore, he plans to spend several months setting up sealing runes around the world that can absorb magic power and grow on their own, completely preventing anyone from traveling through time and space.

……

Time flew by, and soon several dozen days had passed.

That day, Harry participated in the game as usual and easily defeated the opposing Slytherin Quidditch team.

Just as he was taking off his Quidditch uniform and getting ready for class, he suddenly heard a piercing scream coming from afar.

The nearby young wizards all stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction from which the scream came.

Upon seeing the terrifying scene, Hermione screamed and grabbed Harry's arm tightly.

"Oh my God!"

The fat lady has vanished from her portrait, which has been brutally hacked, with fragments of the canvas scattered on the floor, and a large piece of the canvas has simply been torn off.

At this moment, the professors rushed over.

Dumbledore glanced quickly at the damaged portrait, then turned to the other professors with a grave expression:

“We need to find her, Minerva. Go to Mr. Filch immediately and tell him to search every painting in the castle for the Fat Lady.”

The fat lady was quickly found, trembling as she hid in a portrait.

Upon seeing Dumbledore, she excitedly jumped out from behind the rock and told him everything that had happened:

"Dumbledore, it's him! He's here!"

"Who?"

"Sirius Black, he tore up my portrait! You'd better catch him quickly!"

Dumbledore's brow twitched slightly, as if deep in thought. He glanced at Professor Lupin without making a sound, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he ordered the young wizards to return to the Great Hall and sleep there.

Hogwarts is under martial law!
Harry took the blanket out of his pocket dimension, folded it neatly, and Ron watched enviously from the side:

"Harry, this magic of yours is really convenient."

“You are also qualified to learn, and you can master it with effort.” After becoming a lender, Ron will certainly be able to use most of Harry’s magic.

But Ron didn't think so: "It's too difficult, much more difficult than spells. If I want to master it, it will probably take me several years, maybe until I graduate."

Harry shook his head, stood up, walked out of the Great Hall, and said to Ron:

"You stay here, I'm going out for a bit."

"Where are you going?"

"The Headmaster's office, I need to see Headmaster Dumbledore."

Upon hearing that Harry wanted to find Dumbledore, Ron immediately shut up and stopped thinking about going with him.

Although Dumbledore was very kind, he also possessed an air of authority, and many young wizards dared not approach him on their own initiative.

When Harry recited the command and arrived at the headmaster's office, Dumbledore was already waiting again.

Upon seeing Dumbledore, Harry took a vial of potion from his pocket dimension and handed it to him...
