Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 625 The Second Project Begins (First Update)

"Professor Foster, I'd like to ask if you know my mother, Lily Evans? Because of you..."

Seeing Snape leave, Harry looked at Foster with anticipation.

Foster shook his head with some regret:

"Child, I know what you want to ask, and I hope so too, but unfortunately it's not true. Your mother and I have no relationship. I went to your aunt a couple of days ago to verify this."

In fact, while Foster was somewhat concerned about her true origins, she wasn't particularly bothered by them.

For the past twenty-three years, she has been very happy. Her adoptive parents have always loved her deeply, and her sister, who is not related to her by blood, is now married and has children.

Although they were all Muggles, they all treated her like family, and she treated them like family too.

Aside from the fact that she didn't want to get married for some reason, her first half of life could be described as quite perfect.

So after confirming the situation with the Dursleys, she stopped investigating.

If Harry hadn't come to her on his own initiative, she wouldn't have bothered to explain anything.

"I see."

Harry's expectant expression instantly turned to disappointment.

He didn't know what he was expecting. Was he hoping that Professor Foster was his mother's twin sister? But even if she was, she wasn't his mother, but his aunt.

He did have an aunt; for the eleven years he didn't attend Hogwarts, he lived with his aunt's family, but they had never treated him well.

Perhaps it was simply because Professor Foster looked just like his mother, which made him feel a sense of familiarity.

"Although I'm not your aunt, I am your Potions professor. Headmaster Snape said your Potions grades have always been poor. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me!"

Seeing Harry's disappointed expression, Foster gave him a gentle smile.

She learned about Harry's background and situation from Snape. Although Snape didn't think Harry was a good kid, for some reason, she always felt a connection with him whenever she saw him.

Harry's eyes lit up upon hearing this:

"Professor, I will definitely study potions diligently!"

"Okay, let's go eat together."

Foster smiled and beckoned to Harry and the three others who followed behind.

However, she paused for a moment when her gaze swept over Jerry.

From the first time she met Jerry in class, she always felt as if she had seen him somewhere before, with a very special sense of familiarity.

"I guess I've corrected history in this way!"

Seeing Harry's energetic appearance, Jerry thought to himself.

Because he had defeated Voldemort, many things had deviated from their original course. Harry and Ron were naturally not under as much pressure as in the original story, and their studies became less serious.

Jerry was worried that the two of them might not be able to become Aurors in the Ministry of Magic after graduation, just like in the original story.

Becoming an Auror in the Ministry of Magic is no easy feat. In addition to exceptional combat skills, theoretical knowledge and academic performance in all subjects are equally important.

Harry has good combat skills, but if he doesn't do well in the ultimate wizarding exam, he won't be able to become an Auror.

In the original story, Harry's ability to become Minister of the Aurors was largely due to his defeat of Voldemort and his saving of the British wizarding world.

Otherwise, it's really hard to say.

As for Ron, well, he was an Auror for a while before he went to help George run his comedy shop. He wasn't really suited to be an Auror, so it didn't matter if he continued to be a slacker.

The arrival of the new Potions professor caused a sensation for a while after the start of the semester, but it was quickly overshadowed.

Because the second event of the three-way battle has begun.

On the morning of February 24th, Jerry had just arrived at the Great Hall when he heard the young wizards excitedly discussing something.

It turned out that the young wizards from Gryffindor and Ravenclaw who lived on the eighth floor saw three new towers outside the Black Lake when they woke up and looked out their windows.

Today happens to be the start date of the second event, so everyone is guessing that the venue for the second event was built by wizards from the Ministry of Magic overnight using magic.

Sure enough, they soon saw a notice posted by Professor Flitwick in the foyer, informing the young wizards to gather at the Black Lake Tower at 11:00 a.m. to watch the second competition.

"Jerry, is your water-repelling spell really working?"

At 10:40 a.m., on their way to the Black Lake Tower, Harry and Ron asked Jerry with some concern.

They naturally believed in Jerry's magical abilities, but since the competition was taking place in the water, Jerry's most proficient teleportation magic seemed to be of little use.

"Don't worry, Jerry is the best. You guys just wait and celebrate!"

Hermione waved her hand, looking as if she had already won.

Unlike Harry and Ron, who were worried about their best friend, Hermione, his girlfriend, was full of confidence in Jerry's upcoming match.

After accompanying Jerry to the Marvel universe and working as a secret agent for a while, Hermione learned about Jerry's exploits through S.H.I.E.L.D., and only then did she truly realize that Jerry's power far exceeded her imagination.

She even felt that even Dumbledore was far inferior to Jerry in terms of strength.

Dumbledore couldn't use the Enlargement Charm to turn himself into a 100-meter-tall giant and lift up a city.

However, she couldn't tell Harry and Ron these secrets, because even if she did, they probably wouldn't believe her.

"Miss Granger, could you please come here for a moment?"

Just as the group stepped out of the castle, Professor McGonagall's voice suddenly rang out from behind them.

"You go to the tower over Black Lake first. Miss Granger will have to wait a while before she can come over."

When Professor McGonagall appeared, she didn't explain why and simply took Hermione away, leaving Harry and Ron looking at each other in bewilderment.

Jerry, of course, knew what was going on.

The second task is to place the three warriors' treasures in the Black Lake, making them hostages of the merfolk. The warrior who breaks through the merfolk's barrier and rescues their treasures first wins.

On the surface, it was just to scare and motivate the three warriors, and also to make the three-way battle more exciting. The lyrics of the mermaid song in the three golden eggs were that if the rescue failed, the treasure would be lost forever.

The "treasure" here refers to the person the three warriors love most.

If the warriors fail to rescue their lovers, their loved ones will be killed by the merfolk in the Black Lake.

In reality, Dumbledore had already made arrangements with the merfolk in the Black Lake, as neither the warriors nor the three hostages were in any danger.

Hermione was called away by Professor McGonagall because she was the chosen one, Jerry's baby.
