Chapter 535 535. "The Greatest Victory"
The golden light dissipated.
Voldemort's battered body fell into the out-of-control Fiendfire.
Dozens of Scott's phantoms dissipated at the same time.
At this time, the real Scott has once again disappeared into the different space.
"really……"
He looked at the violent Fiendfire outside, and muttered to himself.
"Do you think I won't be prepared for a counterattack when I die?"
Such a routine is simply too routine.
Endless fiery flames shot up into the sky, turning into a flaming giant that looked like Voldemort.
Roaring, he completely melted the ice giant left by Scott, and then began to frantically destroy everything in front of him.
Harry watched this scene in surprise.
"He hasn't disappeared yet?"
"Soon." Scott said with a smile.
Sure enough, after a while, the giant body of the flame giant began to shrink slowly.
Scott added: "It's an honor, the two of us, to witness the real end of a Dark Lord."
Harry didn't make a sound, just stared blankly.
Scott glanced at him and said nothing.
Finally, the flame giant disappeared into the endless Fiendfire.
"Oh……"
Harry was puzzled.
"I feel like I'm different."
"Congratulations, Harry."
Scott stretched.
"Tomorrow, you can go to Madam Pomfrey and ask her to heal the scar on your forehead."
Harry raised his hand to touch the lightning-shaped scar on his forehead, with a complicated expression.
Scott laughed, "Of course, you can keep it, it's a proof of your survival."
"I really understood the meaning of this scar when I entered Hogwarts at the age of 11."
Harry said softly.
"In the beginning, I was a little happy."
"Scars prove my identity and make sure they're not mistaken."
"You don't have to worry about being chased away, leaving the magic world."
Scott didn't disturb him or stare at him, but just listened quietly.
Harry was in some mood, almost talking to himself.
"Then, I started hating it again."
"Not only because of the curious onlookers, but also because it records my original misfortune."
"Later, when I knew more, I no longer knew whether to like it or hate it."
"If my mother hadn't sacrificed herself to save me, this scar wouldn't have happened."
"Whether I want to keep it or not, maybe I need to think about it..."
Harry looked up.
He didn't seem to expect that he would suddenly say so much, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.
"Sorry, I don't know what I'm talking about..."
"Ah?" Scott turned to look at him, "Did you say anything just now?"
Harry laughed. "Thank you, Scott."
"you are welcome."
Scott once again looked at the fiendish flames that continued to burn outside the different space.
"This time I made my own decision, and it almost failed."
Fortunately, this is the dream world created by Merlin.
If it was fighting Voldemort himself in the real world, it would definitely not be so easy.
As soon as he thought of Merlin, Merlin appeared.
As a burst of colorful flower petals fluttered before Scott's eyes, he found that he had returned to the world full of flowers.
He turned his head, but didn't see Harry.
"The child has gone back." Said Merlin who was floating in the air.
"Thank you for your help, Archmage Merlin."
Scott saluted obediently.
"You're welcome, your performance is pretty good."
Merlin smiled and waved his hand.
"Goodbye then."
Scott's eyes darkened.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw blue flannel curtains.
A new day has come.
In the auditorium at breakfast time, Harry ran over just as Scott sat down at the table.
"Do you remember?" he asked softly.
"Of course." Scott smiled, "I don't have amnesia."
Harry asked excitedly, "So...that's all true?"
Scott nodded, "It's true."
He looked up at Harry.
"Do you feel any difference?"
"I have no idea……"
Harry touched the scar on his forehead hesitantly.
"I just feel better, and my thinking is clearer."
Scott understood, "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Harry said gratefully.
"Hey, what are you talking about?"
Eddie, who was listening to the conversation between the two, couldn't help asking.
"Nothing..." Harry didn't seem to want to say more.
Just then the owl flew into the auditorium and dropped letters on the long table.
"Oh! Look!"
Eddie quickly unfolded today's "Daily Prophet", shouting loudly.
His voice spread throughout the auditorium, and everyone turned to the newspaper.
The headline on the front page of the newspaper used a whole page to write a few large characters——
[The greatest victory of this century! ]
[We defeated Voldemort! ]
[Cheers, wizards, true peace has come! ]
The next second, cheers sounded.
In the auditorium, many students jumped up excitedly, and everyone had joyful smiles on their faces.
Of course, there are also individual students with unbelievable expressions on their faces, as if mourning a concubine.
But no one cares about this small group of misfits, everyone is celebrating "the greatest victory".
At this time, the professors headed by Dumbledore also walked into the auditorium.
Instead of stopping the cheering of the students, they stood and watched.
Even Professor McGonagall, who was always strict, had a joyful smile on his face at the moment.
When the cheers died down, Dumbledore stood up.
He publicly announced that Hogwarts would be closed for one day, allowing students above the third grade to go to Hogsmeade to play, and a celebratory dinner would be held in the evening.
In an instant, louder cheers sounded again.
Dumbledore waved to Harry as he turned to leave.
Harry looked at Scott questioningly.
"You can tell the truth," Scott said, "If Professor Dumbledore has any doubts, my tutor will explain them to him."
"Your tutor?" Harry asked curiously.
Scott waved his hand, "Professor Dumbledore knows."
Harry nodded and turned to leave.
"What happened?" Eddie was still curious.
"I did Harry a little favor."
Scott was not prepared to reveal the existence of Merlin hastily, so he changed the subject.
"Look at the other pages of the newspaper."
"Ok."
Eddie curled his lips and started to read the newspaper without further questioning.
Today's "Daily Prophet" is full of pages reporting this "greatest victory."
"Voldemort has completely failed, yes, now, every wizard can say this name without any scruples, instead of referring to 'You-Know-Who'..."
Eddie started reading the newspaper aloud.
"...Ms. Burns, the Minister of Magic, wants to tell all wizards that Voldemort has no chance of making a comeback..."
"...All Death Eaters under Voldemort's command have been imprisoned by Azkaban. From now on, the Ministry of Magic will hold a public trial for all members of the Death Eaters..."
"...All citizens are welcome to report the unknown illegal activities of the Death Eaters and provide corresponding evidence..."
With this "automatic small speaker", Scott and the others stopped reading newspapers.
The Ravenclaws were all enjoying their breakfast while listening to and reading the newspaper.
"This is not fair!"
Eddie, who watched other people enjoying himself, quit.
"Okay, let me come!"
Roger, who had finished eating, took the newspaper.
He flipped through the newspaper in his hand, and his eyes lit up.
"Oh, here's an interview with Professor Dumbledore that mentions Scott!"
He coughed twice and began to read.
"Interview with Albus Dumbledore, he just wants to protect Hogwarts."
"Here's the title."
"The reporter learned from the interview with the Ministry of Magic that our Hogwarts headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, played an irreplaceable role in this war."
"In order to learn more details, we conducted an exclusive interview with Albus Dumbledore overnight..."
"'I didn't do much. In this war, all the wizards on the side of justice contributed their own strength.' Dumbledore said modestly..."
Then Roger read a lengthy passage of the journalist's obscene adulation of Dumbledore.
"Oh……"
Roger frowned a little unbearably.
"Oh, I remember the pseudonym. This reporter was not so polite when he satirized Dumbledore in the newspaper in the past."
"Let's just go straight to the paragraph about Scott!"
Eddie, who was munching on meatloaf, proposed.
Others agreed.
Roger was as good as he could be.
"Dumbledore told us that a Hogwarts student also participated in this operation and played an extremely important role..."
"...The reporter also heard the name from the Minister of Magic..."
"Dumbledore said he was one of the brightest and most talented students Hogwarts had ever seen."
"...He is the favorite of the professors, an undoubted genius, a warrior sought after by thousands of people, and a rising legend..."
Scott silently put down the knife and fork.
"I'm stuffed."
He stood up with goosebumps all over his body, ignored other people's persuasion, left the table quickly, and walked out of the auditorium.
Although you are prepared...
Scott touched his arm through his sleeve.
But when he really heard that level of flattery, he was still so embarrassed that his toes were on the ground.
It's so embarrassing.
It was a public execution.
"Scott!"
Scott turned his head and saw Luna bouncing around.
He asked, "Why did you come out?"
Luna smiled, "I'm already full."
"Let's go."
Scott turned and walked out of the castle.
"it is good."
Luna didn't ask where she was going, but followed him.
They went straight through the school gate guarded by Filch and onto the road to Hogsmeade.
"Harry is different." Luna said suddenly, "He has no impurities, he is a pure Harry."
"You see?" Scott was not surprised.
Luna nodded.
She laughed a few times, "The article in the newspaper was originally suspected of exaggeration, but now it is worthy of the name."
Scott also laughed, "Yeah, the last hidden danger has also been cleared."
Luna turned to look at him, "Are you leaving?"
Scott didn't deny it.
"Sawanna doesn't know when the channel will be officially opened. I want to get the other half of the research materials before then."
"It's been a long journey," Luna said.
Scott nodded.
Antarctica, can it not be far away?
But he had to.
"I am not alone," he said. "Helena and Master Ravenclaw will go with me."
Luna nodded heavily, "Just like before, you will be fine."
"Thank you."
After that, they never mentioned it again.
After entering Hogsmeade, they first went to the Owl Post Office.
Luna sends her letter to Mr. Lovegood.
"My dad will be very interested, and maybe he wants to get involved."
She was referring to the "Tower of Babel" thing.
"I don't know if he can pass the vote of the members by a show of hands."
Scott shrugged.
He thought it might be... a bit difficult.
The current members of the "Tower of Babel" are all their classmates.
Young people don't always like to play with their parents.
After posting the letter, they didn't go shopping in other stores, but just wandered in the street.
Through the glass windows, they could see that both Hogsmeade pubs were packed.
It was still morning, but people couldn't restrain their desire to celebrate.
Probably because of the morning newspaper, when Scott walked past the bar window, he immediately attracted a lot of attention.
Everyone had a smile on their face, someone gave him a thumbs up, someone raised a glass to him, and someone loudly invited him to have a few drinks.
Scott responded with a smile and politely declined their invitation.
As time went by, the number of visitors to Hogsmeade gradually increased.
Not only the students of Hogwarts, but also many adult wizards seemed unable to hold back the urge to get out of the house, and ran over in one go.
Soon, this place became more lively than Diagon Alley before the school started.
Guys from several stores walked out of the store and hung discount banners in the name of celebrating victory above the window, attracting a lot of attention.
Scott saw Harry again.
He walked through the crowd with Ron and Hermione.
Ron and Hermione were asking him something, but Harry was absent-mindedly looking at Cedric and Cho who were holding hands in front of him.
Across the crowd, Scott did not say hello.
Not long after, he saw Fred, George, Angelina, and Alia who seemed to be dating four people.
Fred and George looked frequently at the lively Pig's Head Bar, but were dragged into Madame Puddiffe's Teahouse by Angelina and Alia.
Near the Wenrenju quill shop, Scott saw Roger and Caccini again.
The two walked side by side, the distance was not considered close, but they never separated.
After walking for a while, Scott saw Eddie who was setting up a street stall.
"..."
Scott just glanced at it from a distance, and when he saw the pictorial and badge with his face printed on it, he turned around immediately.
"Go, change the way." He said to Luna.
He was afraid that Eddie would yell and treat him as a live advertisement.
Luna thought it was funny and kept laughing.
Before they knew it, they were near the Shrieking Shack.
There are far fewer people here.
But Scott sees Milton here.
He and a group of classmates from the classical music club came here with their respective instruments, and are setting up a small stage at the moment.
"Oh, here you are."
Seeing Scott and Luna, Milton came over.
"Who are you?" Scott pointed to the small stage.
"To celebrate the victory, we decided to hold an open-air recital!"
Milton looked a little excited.
"There are too many people everywhere, only here is empty!"
