Who let this Dementor into Hogwarts!

Chapter 376 Refined in an instant!

Just as the four small animals were about to crash into Cohen from four angles with the momentum of "I'll headbutt you, you Dementor," Cohen's guardian spirit emerged from the tip of his wand.

Along with the towering silver Dementor appeared the shocked expressions on the faces of the four Silver Key members.

“?”×4
No one in the organization has ever said that Dementors would summon a Patronus Dementor!

Before they could even control their Guardian Angels to retreat, the silver Dementor seized the Guardian Angel that had charged forward—

Grab it and refine it instantly!

"What--"

One of the panicked Silver Key members felt a bone-chilling cold as his guardian deity turned into a wisp of silver smoke and dissipated—a chill that was far more unbearable than being touched by a real Dementor.

"I knew the hardships of the world from an early age, but I forgot about them in the middle and later. Anyway, I'm going to start killing."

Cohen ignored the remaining guardians—they were all being brutally beaten by their own guardians.

The gang leader watched nervously as Cohen walked towards him step by step, but he didn't run away... because it was too late to run now.

A terrifying suction force had locked onto him, as if a Dementor had climbed onto him and even lifted his hood.

It seemed that if Cohen exerted even the slightest effort, his soul would instantly become Cohen's food.

“At least the Lord will know that I was loyal until death…” the gang leader said through gritted teeth, holding his breath, “and when He wakes up He will bring my soul back—”

“I envy you for being able to believe in something that doesn’t even exist for so long with such conviction.” Cohen pressed his wand against his temple. “There are no evil gods, and there are no rewards for believers after the destruction of the world—when people die, they die. I don’t know if others will be reincarnated into another world, but you certainly won’t be.”

"You've taken up that spot—"

"Legilimency."

Cohen used the Legilimency Spell on him, rummaging through the man's mind, searching for clues about other Silver Key members.

Unlike previous fringe members, this person knew much more—not just the silver key, but also the information he possessed as a Death Eater.

He first learned from Voldemort that Cohen was participating in the Triwizard Tournament, then lured his former Death Eater colleague Karkaroff to help Cohen win the tournament, and stole hair from Cohen's family in an attempt to kill Cohen's parents and take their place—how insidious of him to attack Cohen as a parent.

Ultimately, since their plan to replace Cohen's parents failed, they had to resort to a second plan, attempting to use the Guardian Angel, an artifact against Dementors, to eliminate the obstacle currently preventing "God's" descent—that is, Cohen himself.

In fact, the whole plan was already very complete—they had even considered the possibility that Cohen would become a living Horcrux for Edward and Rose after they tore their souls apart to save him, so they prepared a Plan B in case the plan was interrupted if they couldn't kill Cohen's parents.

Unfortunately, the fact that Dementors could summon Dementor Patronus was too damn weird, and despite their best efforts, they still made a mistake, and their final plan to descend failed.

Cohen found twelve faces, names, and the movements of another group of people in his memory.

Excluding the other three people here, and the Polyjuice Potion user who was packed up and handed over to the Ministry of Magic by Rose, there are still eight people left.

Coincidentally, they went to Greece early in the morning, trying to capture some magical creatures—and this time seemed to coincide with the time when the longhorn serpent and griffin came to the vicinity of Hogwarts.

It seems that besides taking the Myra Beast to avenge the griffin, I have another important thing to do on this trip to Greece.

After rummaging through his memories, he found a crucial figure for Cohen—the leader of the entire Silver Key gang, a middle-aged wizard codenamed "Silver Key," who always wore a hood obscuring his face. Since the Silver Keys scattered, this "Silver Key" had gone into hiding, occasionally sending letters to former members, guiding them to "annoy Cohen" in various ways... Judging from the Silver Keys' actions over the years, this leader, "Silver Key," was also trying various methods to deal with Cohen, from soft to hard, from "awakening" to "violence."

Cohen felt as if his entire family had died at Burke Manor, and that was why his hatred and resentment towards him had shifted...

"They're running away so soon?"

Cohen suddenly turned to look at the remaining three people, along with the gang leader who was foaming at the mouth and had his eyes rolled back. The scene looked like a psychopath torturing his prey.

After witnessing Cohen's extremely brutal leguuming, the three men became less "loyal," their legs trembling uncontrollably, and they considered running away—but Cohen, of course, had no intention of letting them go.

"So you're the ones bullying my dad, right?"

Cohen swallowed the gang leader's soul in one gulp, then turned to them.

The terrifying suction force had already targeted them.

"phantom--"

Knowing full well that he was being sucked into a Dementor, why did he still try to escape...?

If I'd known I was a coward, I wouldn't have joined that cult.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Harry, looking visibly shaken, was carried back outside the maze by half a trophy.

He was covered in mud and blood, panting heavily, and his robe was torn open, revealing a long, thin, still-bleeding wound inside.

Sirius immediately sensed something was wrong and rushed over with Dumbledore.

"Harry? Harry?" Sirius asked, checking on Harry. "What happened—"

He noticed the trophy lying on the ground next to Harry, which Dumbledore was examining.

The door key had lost its magic after one round trip; its cracks were neat and uniform, indicating that someone had definitely tampered with it.

“He’s back—Voldemort—” Harry said in a daze, “He used my blood—my parents made me run away…”

"You saw James and Lily?" Sirius's eyes narrowed.

Soon, because this was a warrior who came out with a trophy, many curious spectators had gathered around him—they thought that Harry's injuries were just caused by the animals and challenges in the maze.

Edward and the other two glanced at the trophy in Dumbledore's hand, then looked in the direction of the maze.

"Where's Cohen?" Rose sensed something was wrong. "What if the trophy is with Harry..."

“He only has half here,” Herbert said. “The other warriors have all been brought out—didn’t Mad-Eye say there was no one left in the labyrinth?”

Edward had already squatted down next to Harry, grabbed Harry's shoulders, and asked:
"Harry, have you seen Cohen?"
