A Magical Hogwarts - Vol 7 Chapter 12

The whole world is speculating about when the British Wizarding War will start another world-shattering war.

Nearly half a year has passed since the Death Eaters attacked Stark’s house during Christmas last year and were surrounded and annihilated.

Although the two sides continued to have frictions and frequent local wars, there were basically no major wars, but unexpectedly restrained them.

What everyone is waiting for is a large-scale battle such as the blood dragon dance at Buckingham Palace, the werewolf annihilation, or the defense of Azkaban.

Many people have speculated that one party may make a big move this summer.

But I never imagined that the two forces would go to war at the same time, and the action was so large, the investment was so high, and the casualties were so tragic.

Even more unexpected, such a “summer offensive” that has attracted worldwide attention, not to mention that it will be maintained for a summer, why should it be anxious for a period of time?

But in the end, in just one night, the curtain came to an end.

It feels like half an hour of foreplay, half an hour of ranting, and only five seconds of real friction and heat.

Clap, it’s gone.

If it weren’t for the **** battlefield, it couldn’t be faked, and you even suspected that the two sides were fighting each other from the air.

But no matter how unreal, the significance and impact of this battle are far-reaching.

In this battle, Voldemort’s troll army was destroyed, the vampire army was scattered, the Hebrides was occupied, and air supremacy was taken away.

The results are amazing!

Later generations of magic historians, when compiling the history of the Wizarding War, will call this battle the turning point of the Second Wizarding War, no matter who they say.

Of course, that’s all for later.

For those who are in this historical torrent, they cannot clearly realize the importance of this battle.

But it does not hinder people and is greatly encouraged and inspired.

Many wizards, who have not experienced Grindelwald, have gone through the exciting years of Europe.

But at least the memory of the first wizarding war more than ten years ago is still fresh.

That war, spanning the 1970s, almost wiped out a generation.

Now Voldemort is stronger and more powerful, and Dumbledore, who was struggling to support the overall situation, is also older than then.

Many wizards are pessimistic that this will be a protracted war again, and even the defeat has been determined.

But who would have thought that a “summer offensive” would achieve many results?

And the battle situation was not rotten, but like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves, it ended neatly?

Could it be that all the Death Eater reactionaries are paper tigers, just like Granger’s speech last year.

Soon, more details of the war were leaked out.

Everyone originally thought that the commander-in-chief of the battle was Dumbledore, and no matter how bad it was, it should be the Minister of Magic Burns.

But I didn’t expect it to be Stark, who had just graduated for more than a month and was not yet twenty years old.

And when the war started, Dumbledore wasn’t even in England and went out to seek reinforcements.

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard about this.

Yes, Stark is indeed famous all over the world, even more than Dumbledore.

The reason is that he has saved many countries, is a genius, a war hero, or the owner of the Akali shop who was a hit in the Quidditch World Cup.

In particular, he won several medals, which brought him countless prestige bonuses.

But directing war is a very different field.

Even the younger you are, the more disadvantaged you are, after all, you have less experience.

And what about William?

At the same time commanding the three main forces of the Ministry of Magic, the Order of the Phoenix and the European Allied Forces, and launching a pivotal campaign?

The key is to win beautifully.

This is completely unimaginable!

This extremely publicized intelligence “leak”, of course, has the British propaganda mechanism, which is playing a role, and even fueling the flames.

In times of war, people need not only heroes, but also great leaders.

Heroes can inspire people, but they cannot lead a country to victory.

Great leaders can.

In any case, William began to transform from a war hero to a leader.

That’s what Dumbledore did.

Even if he is gone one day, I hope someone can take over his banner and continue to lead everyone on.

And with his help, William’s reputation has skyrocketed again. Even in the UK, many people think:

Times have changed.

The afterglow of Dumbledore has begun to dissipate, and it is about to enter the era of Stark.

The fermentation of these public opinions will not be mentioned for the time being.

Even the large number of navy troops from the Ministry of Magic, the public leaders of “dog food” from various countries, and the leading party who prepared their own dry food to publicize William are all for later.

At this moment, for William, he can’t relax.

Not to the point where “after so many years of fighting, I can’t enjoy, enjoy.”

really a lot

The troops were to clean up the battlefield, take over the Hebrides, and prevent the Death Eaters from destroying the dragons on the island.

There is also the aftermath of the war, when a large number of wounded wizards, werewolves, giants and centaurs need to be admitted to magical hospitals.

Most importantly, the burial and memorial service of the war dead and the pensions for their families should also be implemented one by one.

In fact, there are not many places to choose from for the burial area of ​​the war dead.

There are just a few of the famous wizarding villages in the UK.

Dingworth in Cornwall, Upper Flegley in Yorkshire, Ottery St Catchpole on the south coast of England, and the village of Hogsmeade

According to Dumbledore’s opinion, Godric’s Hollow was finally chosen for the memorial monument and burial place.

Godric’s Hollow has a high historical status.

It is the birthplace of Gryffindor wizard goldsmith Bowman Wright, where the first Golden Snitch was forged

Dumbledore also grew up in the valley and Harry, who was here as the boy who survived

In the back of the valley, there is a wizard cemetery.

The cemetery is engraved with the surnames of ancient wizarding families, including the Peverell family in the story of the Three Brothers.

A small valley, half the history of magic is no exaggeration at all.

The funeral was chosen in mid-July.

However, before the start of the memorial service, William did not appear at the cemetery immediately, but was waiting for someone to arrive.

Sitting in the chair, he looked at the newspaper and glanced at Cedric out of the corner of his eye.

I saw Cedric’s face full of anxiety, and he had walked around the table 69 times.

William took a sip of tea and said softly:

“What’s the hurry, Cedric. It’s not time yet.”

“Can’t you be in a hurry? That’s Gregorovitch. He’ll be fine, right?”

Before Cedric’s words were finished, the vanishing cabinet on the ground clicked.

He hurriedly went to open the cabinet, and an old man got out of it.

After Gregorovitch came out, he patted the dust on his body and said hello:

“Long time no see, William.”

“Hello, Mr. Gregorovitch.” William also nodded.

Really long time no see.

The last time we met was during Easter last year.

At that time, William and Hermione went to Durmstrang to stop Voldemort from killing Sirius.

Then, the two went to find Grindelwald, and by the way, took Gregorovitch out of the north of the North Sea.

The old man lived in Santa Claus Village.

I haven’t seen each other for a year and a half, and Grigovich has gained weight and his face is extremely rosy.

Seems to be very moisturizing.

Seeing Gregorovich looking at the room, William took the initiative to introduce:

“This is one of my safe houses, in Godric’s Hollow.

You can live here temporarily, it’s safe. ”

He snapped his fingers and poured the old man a cup of tea.

Gregorovitch sat on the sofa, raised his glass, and hummed:

“Safe? Or the safest in northern Europe.”

“That’s not necessarily true. Voldemort has been looking for you. Mr. Ollivander has been arrested.” William said softly.

Gregorovitch shuddered.

He had already received the news, and even planned to hide in the United States for a while.

But I don’t know why, the United States soon became chaotic, and even the Muggle Capitol blew up.

It is said that now the Magic Congress, the Purifiers and the Muggle government are fighting in a three-way melee throughout North America.

It also coincided with the great victory of the British war, and Gregorovich thought about it, it was safer to be around William.

The old man couldn’t help but despair, what was his own virtue, and let the two generations of Dark Lords think about him?

Not even the Elder Wand!

But what’s so special, that ominous wand has long been out of his hands. If it was killed, it would be an injustice.

It’s all to blame for his rude mouth. Back then, he said that he had an old wand and made a fortune in silence, right?

“Don’t worry, as long as you live here, I guarantee your safety.” William turned the cup and comforted.

He changed the subject and smiled: “But I have something to ask you.”

“What’s up?”

“I want you to make an Elder Wand.”

“”

Gregorovich glanced at William with small eyes, if he had the ability, how could he be reduced to this level?

“It doesn’t have to be the real thing, the fake version will do.” William smiled.

“But I need you to do the same as the real thing, and it looks like an antique.

The power is also greater than that of ordinary wands. ”

As a master wandmaker, Gregorovitch also studied the Elder Wand.

He is the wandmaker who knows this wand best in the world.

Even Gregorovitch can replicate some of the Elder Wand’s properties.

For example, the wand he made was more powerful than other wands when it released the same offensive magic.

Otherwise, he would not have such a large share of the European wand market, and even have the reputation of the three major wandmakers.

William continued:

“But I don’t need Mrs. Wand, it’s better to fight for a while before it snaps.”

Gregorovitch narrowed his eyes, the request strange.

I don’t know which unlucky person William is trying to cheat.

As a wand master’s integrity, he is definitely not allowed to do such a thing, but William’s request

“Can!”

“Thank you.” William stood up, pushed Cedric in front of the old man, and smiled:

“He’s Cedric, and he’s your fan. He can help you for the time being. If you want any materials, just ask him.”

“I know you, Garrick wrote me a letter before, showing off that he had a talented student.”

Grigovich looked at Cedric and snorted softly.

Let this little white face beat William obviously to let him steal the teacher.

But it doesn’t matter.

Gregorovich is so old and has gone through so much, and he has long looked down on it.

But he still asked, “Hey, boy, are you still single?”

Cedric froze for a moment, not understanding what the old man meant.

Gregorovich said with a wicked smile: “I am a serious craftsman, and only a single person can fully learn it.

I know your British hobbies. If you have a boyfriend or something, I advise you to break it up quickly. ”

“”

William walked out of the room and walked towards the tomb alone, leaving only Cedric to study the craft with Gregorovitch.

To make such a wand, of course, is to deceive people.

The pit is still Voldemort.

He had taken Ollivander, knew the Elder Wand, even knew that Gregorovitch had it.

But Voldemort didn’t know that the Elder Wand was stolen by Grindelwald and returned to Dumbledore.

And the year before last in Vienna, Grigovic was captured by Grindelwald, which is well known to everyone.

In the eyes of Voldemort, he would only think that now the Elder Wand was taken away by Grindelwald.

Once the two sides meet, Voldemort will certainly plot the omnipotent wand.

What William has to do now is how to send the “Elder Wand” made by Gregorovitch to Voldemort.

Otherwise, it would be in vain for him to spend so much energy, passing through Durmstrang, and letting Grindelwald talk to Voldemort.

William quickly came to the door of the cemetery. He pushed open a narrow door and walked along the path of the church door towards the back room.

Soon, rows of tombstones came into view.

They stood in a large open space, looking very desolate and scary.

The Memorial Monument is in the southwest corner of the cemetery, and it will take some time to walk.

After walking a few steps, William suddenly saw a familiar figure standing not far away, standing alone in front of a tombstone.

William walked over gently, and he saw a name Candela Dumbledore engraved on the mottled granite.

Under the date of birth and death, is “and daughter Ariana”.

This is the tomb of Dumbledore’s parents and sister.

The old man leaned down and touched the tombstone with his fingertips, the names of his mother and sister.

And the epitaph he carved by himself:

Where the treasure is, there is also the heart.

“William, in fact, I have rarely come here these years, far less than Aberforth.” Dumbledore’s voice was hoarse:

“Because I’m a coward~www.mtlnovel.com~ I dare not come.

When my father died, my mother stood by the grave, holding the dialogue between life and death for me.

And that year, she left suddenly, and Ariana also left not long after.

I can only stand alone in front of the grave, with nothing in front of me.

I can’t bear that kind of grief. ”

Dumbledore closed his eyes and burst into tears.

William had nothing to say and could only pat the old man on the shoulder.

After a while, he whispered: “Let’s go, Professor, the memorial service is about to begin.”

Dumbledore nodded, and William supported the old man and walked towards the distance.

As he passed a tombstone, Dumbledore pointed to it.

William lowered his head, carefully identifying the broken, moss-covered stone tablet.

The tombstone was so old and weathered that William could barely read the name on it.

But he could still make out the triangle of the Deathly Hallows.

and Ignotus.

This is the tomb of Ignotus Peverell, the third of the three brothers.

It was because of this tomb that Grindelwald came here that summer and met Dumbledore.

Everything seems to be predestined.

Finally, the two passed another tombstone.

It is white marble, and the text is very clear, indicating that the age is not very long.

William didn’t even have to come close to see the writing on it.

James Potter

Lily Potter

And the epitaph The last enemy to destroy is death.

Neither William nor Dumbledore spoke, but quickened their pace, seeming to want to stay away from the tombstone.

Because they both know that the battle has reached this point, and Harry is about to usher in the fate he has long been sentenced:

He should go to die.
