Hogwarts: The Strongest Animagus Ever

...

　ae And at this time, Hogsmeade.

It was already dark, and the wizards in the Hog's Head Tavern had dispersed, leaving only Aberforth sitting alone at the counter. After the last wizard left, Aberforth walked to the door and saw Dumbledore in a black robe blocking the door.

"Albus." Aberforth opened the door and let Dumbledore in.

Dumbledore walked in and looked around. The Hog's Head Tavern was still the same as before, with dirty oil stains everywhere and all kinds of strange decorations.

"Aberforth." Dumbledore sat down and looked up at Aberforth.

Aberforth brought two glasses of butterbeer and placed them in front of Dumbledore. "Albus, what do you think of what I said?"

Dumbledore took a sip of beer and looked at Aberforth, with some sadness hidden in his wise eyes: "Aberforth, Ariana will never come back. Using the Deathly Hallows will bring curses. Even with the Resurrection Stone, Ariana will not be resurrected."

"Won't you consider it?" Aberforth's tone sounded very calm.

But Dumbledore knew that Aberforth was on the verge of exploding.

Ever since Ariana passed away, Aberforth's temper has become very strange, and the originally silent man has become even more silent.

"You are the greatest white wizard in the world. You think that the wizarding world is the most important in this world. But have you ever thought that Ariana only has us and you are her brother, Albus." Aberforth looked up at Dumbledore, his calm eyes suppressing anger and pain.

"Aberforth, this matter is over." Although he said this, Dumbledore knew that this matter would not be over.

Ariana would forever stand between him and Aberforth.

Aberforth put down his beer glass with a bang. "Albus, why are you hesitating? Now there is a chance to revive Ariana, but you are hesitating?"

Dumbledore remained silent, and Aberforth gritted his teeth and remained silent. The silence between the two was filled with great restraint and pain.

After waiting for a while, Dumbledore put the hood of his wizard robe back on and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. Aberforth, I will take care of Ariana's matter."

Dumbledore walked to the door of the Hog's Head Tavern and hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't seem to say it.

With a creak, the old wooden door of the Hog's Head Tavern closed again, and Aberforth sat on the stool, still silent.

On the mirror far away from him, a sentence reappeared.

"Ariana's soul rests in your hands, Aberforth."

Chapter 109: The panicked wizard!

Nurmengard.

The cold weather makes the gray castle look even colder and more intimidating.

The sea breeze blew on the castle, causing the old metal gate to creak harshly.

Grindelwald was standing in a room on the top floor of Nurmengard. Reina walked in from outside: "Boss, the companions from the past are gathering, and the two vampire families have also sent people over~."

Grindelwald nodded, then said: "Contact Voldemort and spread the news that he has been resurrected. -"

Reina stood aside and asked, "Boss, didn't you want to help the Ministry of Magic cover up this news?"

Grindelwald's eyes were extremely calm. He touched the wand in his hand and said, "Sometimes, fear can bring unexpected rewards."

"Reina, you have to remember that what we need is to drive away some people who don't know magic, not to kill all those who know magic."

Reina nodded, and Grindelwald continued, "Also, I have to go to Hogsmeade to guard Nurmengard. The Ministry of Magic may send someone over."

Grindelwald disappeared in an instant, and Reina turned and left the room.

.

The news of Voldemort's resurrection spread quickly. The news that the two demons were resurrected at the same time made many wizards panic.

In Hogwarts, students who were still having lunch suddenly stopped eating.

Dozens of owls flew in from outside and then landed on the hands of the little wizards.

Hermione reached out to catch an owl and took the subscribed Daily Prophet from the owl's mouth. Ron was eating bread and saw the Daily Prophet in Hermione's hand. He said, "I really don't understand why you like reading this?"

Hermione snorted and said, "Understanding the affairs of the wizarding world is what every wizard should do. Do you think every wizard is like you and only knows how to eat?"

Ron put down the bread in his hand and shrugged. Harry leaned over and asked, "Hermione, what happened recently?"

Hermione opened the newspaper in her hand and was about to start reading aloud when she saw the big words on the headline of the prophet's newspaper: "You-Know-Who Reappears!"

Hermione shot up from her seat and yelled, "Oh no! You-Know-Who is back!"

Hermione's voice was not loud, but everyone was extremely sensitive to the news about the mysterious man. At the Gryffindor table, wizards of all grades immediately stopped eating and turned their eyes to Hermione.

People at the long tables of other colleges also opened the Daily Prophet one after another, and the restaurant suddenly became quiet.

Qiao Ya turned to look at Charlotte, with a hint of fear in her eyes.

Charlotte reached out and patted Qiao Ya, signaling her to calm down, and then said, "Hermione, continue reading."

Hermione's eyes widened as she looked at the newspaper headline in shock.

"Voldemort has resurrected! Azkaban is suspected to have fallen... Death Eaters have been found in Godmanchester. A wizard named Yas said: I was standing on the side of the road at the time, and a Death Eater in a black robe cast an unforgivable curse on my companion. I was lucky to survive... Upon investigation, Voldemort's traces seemed to appear on the streets of London... Minister of Magic Fudge admitted this..."

"Oh my God!" Ron shouted, dropping his bread on the table.

The restaurant was silent for a long time, and not many people spoke until the end of meal time.

Charlotte looked at the young wizards leaving the restaurant. Hermione and the other two walked from the Gryffindor table to Charlotte and sat down around him.

"Charlotte, have you known about this for a long time?" Hermione looked at Charlotte. As the most talented wizard in Gryffindor, Hermione intuitively felt that Charlotte, who had received a lot of leniency from Dumbledore, might have known about this for a long time.

Charlotte didn’t hide anything.

"I do know, but this matter will not bring any benefits to you. Since this news has spread, it means that the Dark Lord will soon lead the wizarding world."

（『）

Charlotte looked at the trio and said, "You'd better stay in Hogwarts. It's the safest place."

Hermione frowned, and Harry said, "You asked us to stay here, do you mean you want to go out?"

Charlotte smiled and said noncommittally: "Oh, Harry, if Voldemort and Grindelwald want to enter Hogwarts, I think they have to kill me first."

Although the three knew that Charlotte was very strong, they were stunned when Charlotte said this. Ron widened his eyes and asked, "You mean, their target will be you."

"They all want to kill me." Charlotte said it lightly. He stood up and said, "At least we are still in Hogwarts now. You don't need to worry about me."

·· 0···· ··

"What we should worry about is when they will come to Hogwarts."

...

At this time, Hogsmeade.

Aberforth did not open the Hog's Head Tavern today. After all, he was still thinking about Ariana, and if Dumbledore did not give in, he could not get the Elder Wand, nor could he exchange it for the Resurrection Stone.

Besides, Aberforth is not stupid. Today, the news of Voldemort's resurrection is completely unstoppable, and people are discussing this matter everywhere.

Voldemort's cruel rule over the wizarding world has left a shadow on many wizards. The mere mention of his resurrection has made everyone feel insecure. If Grindelwald gets the Elder Wand, the power of the two demons will definitely reach its peak.

. . . 0

Then, the wizarding world will inevitably be ruled by the Dark Lord.

Aberforth sat in the Hog's Head Tavern, looking at the portrait of Ariana on the wall, and fell into deep silence.

At this moment, the door of the Hog's Head Tavern was pushed open. Aberforth did not turn around, but just said: "Didn't you see the sign hanging on the door? It's closed today."

"Long time no see, Aberforth."

Grindelwald's voice sounded behind him. Aberforth turned his head sharply, his expression instantly cold: "Gellert."

"How have you been recently? I think Albus should have been here?" Grindelwald stood near the counter, looking inside the counter, and then said: "I know the butterbeer here is very famous."

"Give me a drink, how about that?"

Aberforth stood up, his eyes fixed on Grindelwald, then walked to the counter, took out a beer glass, poured beer into it and pushed it in front of Grindelwald.

"What are you doing here?"

Grindelwald picked up the wine glass and looked at the dirty barrel glass, but he did not dislike it. After taking a sip, he said, "It is indeed a famous wine. It is really good."

Aberforth kept a close eye on Grindelwald, intending to tell Dumbledore if anything seemed amiss.

Grindelwald seemed to see his intention and said with a smile: "I came here, of course, for Ariana."

He stretched out his hand, and a ring appeared on it.

Chapter 110: The Giant’s Invitation!

Aberforth stared at the Resurrection Stone in Grindelwald's hand with wide eyes.

As a wizard, Aberforth knew the legend of the Resurrection Stone.

The god of death picked up a black stone by the river, gave it to the wizard's second son, and told him that this stone could bring the dead back to life.

In fact, the only person in the wizarding world who has used the Resurrection Stone was its first owner, Cadmus Peverell. However, after using the Resurrection Stone, Cadmus was tortured to madness and eventually committed suicide.

This period of history is known to everyone, but not many people question the authenticity of the Resurrection Stone's ability to resurrect people. After all, most wizards may not even be able to see one of the holy relics.

"Gellert, what do you want?" Aberforth withdrew his gaze from the Resurrection Stone and turned to look at Grindelwald.

"Aberforth, you know what I want." Grindelwald put his hand on the counter of "Two-One-Zero" and said, "There are some things that only you can get for me, Aberforth."

Aberforth was silent. How could the Elder Wand be obtained so easily?

Besides, having already let down Ariana, Aberforth was unwilling to betray Dumbledore.

"I see," said Aberforth.

Grindelwald smiled, then pushed his beer glass forward: "Another drink, Aberforth."

..

Meanwhile, at Hogwarts.

Charlotte came out of the library and saw Hagrid waving at him from a distance.

Charlotte smiled and walked towards Hagrid: "Hagrid, are you waiting for me?"

Hagrid rubbed his rough hands, his face hidden in his dirty beard was a little embarrassed. He looked at the students around him and said, "Of course, I want to invite you to my cabin. Of course, if you don't have time now, we can find another time."

Looking at the tall man in front of him, Charlotte followed him towards the cabin: "Of course, shall we go now?"

Hagrid's eyes showed some joy: "Of course."

"I thought you would leave Hogwarts after you got your wand back," said Charlotte.

"Of course not. Hogwarts is my home and Dumbledore is my best friend. I will not leave here." Hagrid smiled and replied, "Even if I can use my wand openly, I will still stay outside the jungle. Those little animals will not want me to leave."

"Harry and the others will also be reluctant to see you leave." Charlotte said with a smile.

Most of the giants in the magical world live in places far away from human habitation. Not only that, some of them still retain the most primitive wildness, eating raw meat and drinking blood.

It is very rare to find a giant like Hagrid who is kind by nature.

Speaking of giants, Charlotte suddenly remembered his own abilities. Since he can already transform into a frost giant, he wondered if there are other giants in the world?

For example, do wind giants, forest giants, fire giants, and other giants exist? Or can I get the blood of these giants?

Charlotte looked at Hagrid, who was also a giant.

But it's clear that Hagrid has no special powers.

"Hagrid, is it convenient for me to ask you something about giants?" Charlotte asked.

Hagrid looked at Charlotte in surprise and said, "Oh, Charlotte, I asked you to come here because I want to tell you something about giants."

Charlotte was stunned. With Hagrid's wisdom, could he predict the future?

Hagrid pushed open the door of the hut, invited Charlotte to come in and sit down, and brought a bowl of rock cakes from the side and placed them on the round table in front of them.

The cabin was dimly lit, with most of the light coming from the fireplace on the wall.

Hagrid sat back and took out a letter from the fireplace. Charlotte watched Hagrid's every move and asked with some doubts: "Hagrid, how did you know? I want to know something about giants."

Hagrid was a little flustered, waved his hands twice, and said, "Dumbledore told me that maybe you would need some blood from a unique race, so when he knew that my family had written to me, he asked me to come to you."

Hagrid handed the letter to Charlotte and said, "You helped me get my wand back. I don't know how to thank you. My family may have something you need. The Giant Tribe will hold a festival in the next few days. If possible, I would like to invite you to go, Charlotte."

Hagrid looked at Charlotte with a nervous expression on his face. "Oh, I've never brought anyone back before, but you know that giants live deep in the mountains. I hope you don't mind."

Charlotte looked at the thing in her hand that was as big as a dozen treacle pies and could be called a letter. The language written on it should be the language used by the giants.
