Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

"I disagree!"

Umbridge roared, her whole body shaking because she was so angry.

However, now the entire auditorium was in a state of carnival, and no one paid any attention to what she said. Dumbledore, who was surrounded by the crowd in the center in the distance, didn't even look at her.

In desperation, Umbridge could only use the Loud Voice Curse.

This time, Dumbledore finally heard her call. He turned his head and looked at Umbridge in surprise, as if he was wondering why she was here.

"I don't agree, Dumbledore!" Umbridge repeated again, "I finally got Hogwarts back on track, and I can't let you let it get back to the bad state it was before! "

"Oh! Umbridge, you misunderstood me. The purpose of everything I do is the same as yours. It is all for the students to have a good learning environment." Dumbledore said, "But I have to Say, you did go too far in some things, such as firing Professor Trelawney. I admit that Professor Trelawney sometimes does not behave like a serious professor, and you are justified in firing her because of this. Excusable, but at the same time you must know one thing. That is that divination is an extremely abstruse subject, and it is very difficult to find a suitable divination professor. So I think before expelling Trelawney we must first You have to find a better candidate than her, right? Otherwise, what will you do to the students who have submitted for the divination class?"

Umbridge stood there blankly. She wanted to refute, but the reason given by Dumbledore was so impeccable that she was speechless.

At the same time, she also knew very well that she was indeed unreasonable when it came to the punishment room and temporary inspectors. If she really insisted on having her own way, the parents of those students would probably tear her into pieces.

Then the only benefit that can be obtained is the ban on associations.

Umbridge thought so and gasped:

"Well, I agree with your decision to recall Trelawney, but I will never give in on the ban on societies!"

"Professor Umbridge, I think you must not have heard what I said before. I am not saying that I want to directly veto your club ban. I know that some clubs in Hogwarts do have some problems, so I just It is planned to reopen the Quidditch school team and competition. I believe you will not refuse this, right?"

Umbridge's face turned darker after hearing this. Her most fundamental mission when she came to Hogwarts was to prevent Dumbledore from secretly cultivating his own organization. Once the ban on societies was opened, then according to her experience Seeing that all the efforts he had made during this period would be in vain, this was something he couldn't bear no matter what.

However, just when she was about to retort, she caught a glimpse of Dumbledore's eyes at this moment.

It was a look with strong dissatisfaction and anger. With this look, Umbridge's originally hot heart quickly cooled down.

At the same time, she finally remembered that the person standing in front of her now was one of the strongest men in the wizarding world today - Dumbledore!

That is an existence that can turn itself into ashes with just a wave of its hand!

What kind of medicine did I take that made me dare to be arrogant in front of him?

Under Dumbledore's strong pressure, Umbridge turned pale, her body trembled like chaff, and finally turned around and ran away.

Everyone in the auditorium cheered when they saw Umbridge's escaping figure, and even Professor McGonagall, who was usually stern in speech, had a smile on his face.

"Okay, everyone!" Dumbledore waved, "It's not the time to celebrate yet, we have a more important thing to do - demolish the punishment room!"

After hearing this, everyone rushed out of the auditorium and walked to the punishment room cheering.

The punishment chamber of Hogwarts is located underground in the castle, just like the Potions Master. It almost perfectly fits all the fantasies people have about a prison cell - damp, dark, and dirty.

There are also many strange torture instruments hanging on the walls of the punishment room, including not only ordinary ropes and chains, but also many sharp weapons.

Different from ordinary torture instruments, most of these torture instruments are magical.

For example, the ropes above can automatically tie people up, and sharp tools such as knives and nails are equipped with a series of functions including automatic cleaning.

The students at Hogwarts have been suffering from this for the past few weeks, and it's natural to be angry now that they see the culprits.

"Smash them!"

Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted such a sentence, and then the scene got out of control. Everyone swarmed up and started destroying everything in the punishment room, even the floor in the room.

Dumbledore stood not far away and watched all this with a smile, showing no intention of stopping it.

Next to him was Filch, who was hunched over and trembling all over.

The torture instruments in the punishment room were all left by the previous principal. These things were originally meant to be disposed of, but he kept them privately and carefully maintained them, hoping that one day they would see the light of day again and be used for them. Punish those disobedient students.

It can be said that the reason why Umbridge's punishment room can be built so smoothly is largely due to Filch.

If he hadn't contributed so many well-preserved torture instruments, Umbridge's punishment room might not have been completed until now.

So Filch was in a panic at this moment. If Dumbledore really wanted to attack him, he might be kicked out of Hogwarts!

However, what Filch was most worried about did not happen. Until the punishment room was completely destroyed, and the Slytherins all took off the green armbands representing rights, Dumbledore did not mention anything about punishing him.

Dumbledore just tapped Filch on the shoulder and announced it was lunch time!

The house elves had obviously received the news of Dumbledore's return in advance, so today's lunch at Hogwarts became particularly sumptuous, and could almost be regarded as a small banquet.

This undoubtedly brought the already joyful atmosphere to a higher level. While gnawing on the chicken legs, Franklin told Mike over and over again that he would be able to return to the Quidditch field soon.

There were many people who were as excited as Franklin. Everyone spoke freely while eating delicious food, and the entire auditorium echoed with the laughter of students.

But in such a scene of singing and dancing, Mike discovered something different.

Harry!

At the Gryffindor dinner table, Harry did not have his mouth full of food like Ron next to him. Instead, he covered his forehead with one hand and lowered his head in silence.

In an instant, Mike thought of a possibility, and a smile appeared on his face.

…

"Harry, I noticed something strange about you at noon. Are you feeling unwell?"

In the afternoon, in the entrance hall of Hogwarts, Mike stopped Harry, who had already changed into equipment and was about to go to Quidditch training with his companions.

After hearing Mike's words, the surrounding Gryffindor team members all turned their attention to Harry.

"Well, I'm just a little tired. I didn't sleep well last night." Harry looked a little ugly. "As you know, I have a headache and nightmares. But don't worry, this is an old problem. Madam Pomfrey had it last year. Already seen it.”

The smile on Mike's face flashed away, and he put on a worried expression and asked:

"Nightmare? What kind of nightmare?"

Harry's eyes swept over the people around him, and he hesitated for a moment before saying awkwardly:

"I dreamed that I turned into a snake, a python. In the dream, I seemed to have entered a room, and then I kept crawling inside."

Hearing this, the Gryffindors around him all showed strange expressions. You must know that the snake is the symbolic animal of Slytherin. Harry, a Gryffindor, would actually dream that he turned into a snake. This is not true. What a good sign.

When Mike heard this, he grabbed Harry and dragged him towards the castle.

"Wait! Wait, Mike! What are you doing?"

"Of course I will take you to find Dumbledore. This is not an easy matter for you!"

"But I still have to train!"

Mike stopped, turned his head and looked at the Gryffindors beside him expressionlessly and said:

"I'm taking Harry to see a doctor, are you okay with that?"

Everyone in Gryffindor shook their heads quickly. Not to mention that Mike's reason was very normal. Given Mike's strength and prestige, they did not dare to refute Mike.

Harry was helpless when he saw this, and could only follow Mike slowly into the castle again.

Then the two of them first visited Professor McGonagall, and were then taken to the principal's office by Professor McGonagall.

Due to his busy work, Professor McGonagall left after entering the password. When Mike and Harry entered the principal's office, a beautiful fiery red bird flew on Mike's shoulder.

Harry was shocked. He also knew Dumbledore's Phoenix, Fawkes.

But he had never seen Fawkes get close to anyone except Dumbledore.

"Oh! Gentlemen, please take a seat. I should have some candies here." Dumbledore stood up from behind the eagle-legged table, "Mike, it's so interesting that Fawkes still likes you so much. "

Although he was reluctant to come at first, Harry was still extremely excited after meeting Dumbledore.

"Principal Dumbledore!" Harry said excitedly, "Where have you been during this time!"

"This question is a long story. I went to visit an old friend. Since his place is very remote, you can't contact me." Dumbledore's hand holding the candies and refreshments stiffened slightly, "So Now, what do you want to do with me?"

"Harry's headaches are getting worse and worse, and he has even started to have nightmares recently."

As Mike spoke, he took out fresh white meat from his pocket and fed it to Phoenix Fox.

Dumbledore's expression suddenly became serious and he asked:

"What kind of nightmare?"

"Well, I turned into a python and crawled around a room." Harry shivered as he said it, as if he remembered the feeling at that time, "At that time, I even rubbed the scales on its body against the ground. I can feel the touch, that dream is so real, so real that it makes my hair stand on end!"

"What about other than that? Are there any other symptoms?"

"Also, I have a headache, and my scar has been hurting again recently. But I think this shouldn't matter, right? After all, I had Madam Pomfrey take a look at it last year, and she said at the time that it might be because of my psychological stress. too big."

Dumbledore did not reply. He lowered his head and pondered. Harry, who had not received a positive answer in this strange silence, had nervousness written all over his face.

Mike beside him was observing Dumbledore seriously.

Mike actually knew the reason behind Harry's dream. As one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Harry actually had some kind of ideological connection with Voldemort.

In other words, Harry's dreams are largely Voldemort's thoughts.

As for the dream Harry is having now, if nothing else goes wrong, its follow-up development should be the plot of Voldemort's snake Nagini going to attack Arthur Weasley.

Originally this plot was not important, but now it is different.

You must know that the python Nagini is actually one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, and because it stays with Voldemort all year round, it can be said to be one of the most difficult to destroy Horcruxes.

If Nagini is really going to attack Arthur Weasley alone this time, then this is the best time to get rid of it.

Of course, in order to improve the success rate of the plan, Mike also needs the help of Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix.

This is why Mike brought Harry to visit Dumbledore right away.

"I understand, Harry." Dumbledore said after a moment of silence, "Your situation is very special, and you have been under a lot of pressure recently. So let's do it, you don't have to go to Umbridge for the time being. The professor is accepting confinement punishment, and Quidditch training also needs to be stopped. During this time, you should concentrate on studying and resting."

After hearing this, Harry immediately quit his job. You must know that he is Gryffindor's seeker. Without him, the entire team would be at a standstill.

So Harry immediately said:

"But we're about to enter the competition!"

"Harry, I know you are eager to win the Quidditch match, but I think your body is more important than the trophy."

"Mike is right." Dumbledore shook his head helplessly, "Let's do this, Harry. Let's observe for a while, and you can take a break. If your condition improves, then you can continue to participate. Training, of course, and confinement will also be closed. And if your condition worsens again, then I'm sorry, I may have to suspend you from school temporarily and go to St. Mungo's for treatment."

Hearing this, Harry's face turned livid, and Mike next to him didn't look good either.

Now it seems that Dumbledore is obviously not aware of the seriousness of this matter. He even thinks that the reason why Harry has this symptom is entirely because he was hit in the head by the Death Curse when he was a child.

Shaking his head, Mike had made up his mind.

If Dumbledore is still as indifferent to this matter as he was in the original work, then he will have no choice but to act alone!
