Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Dumbledore, who had his back to the window, seemed to notice Mike's gaze. He suddenly smiled and winked mischievously at Mike.

Mike's slightly open mouth closed immediately, and the initial feeling of admiration completely disappeared.

Dumbledore's action was so inconsistent!

In Mike's impression, people as powerful as him should be taciturn and extremely cold, but Dumbledore was so... approachable, even a little bit dumbfounding!

"Are you guys okay?"

Dumbledore said with a smile.

"It's okay!" Professor McGonagall helped Ron and Neville stand up, and then looked at Fudge and the others who were lying silently on the ground around them, "Are they okay?"

"Don't worry, I was very measured in my actions. Dai Lisi and the others can vouch for this." Dumbledore smiled and nodded to the portraits of the previous principals on the wall, and then looked at the man named Jin next to him with a worried look. Sly's black man, "But I had no choice but to take action against Kingsley. He was clearly speaking for me just now. Promise me, Minerva, to apologize to him for me later."

In addition, Fudge and the others should wake up soon, so we'd better not let them know that we have communicated with each other. So you'd better pretend to be knocked unconscious by me, so..."

"Where are you going?" Mag suddenly interrupted, "Is it Black's place?"

"Oh, no." Dumbledore pursed his lips and shook his head, "Don't worry, I won't run away and hide. It won't be long before Fudge will regret driving me away from Hogwarts." , I will come back when the time comes, I promise you.”

Professor McGonagall frowned and nodded worriedly.

Mike took a step forward and said:

"Dumbledore, I don't understand why you..."

"No, Mike, I have to do this. This is the best solution." Dumbledore smiled kindly, "Of course, I also have something to ask you."

"Say it!"

"Okay." Dumbledore nodded with satisfaction, "I hope you can teach Harry how to seal off his brain. Oh! Don't refuse in a hurry. I know that you have already learned Occlumency, and your level is quite good. Not low.

Listen, Mike. You must teach Harry Occlumency. This is very important. Do you understand? "

Mike looked at Dumbledore's serious expression and finally nodded.

Snape, who had already stood up, looked very ugly after hearing Dumbledore's words.

You must know that Harry Potter's original Occlumency mentor was him, and now Dumbledore has entrusted it to someone else. This is simply a great shame for him!

Of course, he actually understood that it was most correct for Dumbledore to let others teach Harry Potter, because Harry Potter was particularly resistant to him. In this state, Harry could not learn brain at all. Occlumency.

So the most fundamental reason why he felt unhappy was because this way he had no reason to bully Harry openly.

But Dumbledore didn't pay attention to Snape's expression. After seeing Mike nod, Dumbledore smiled with satisfaction and then said:

"Okay, it's time for me to go."

After saying that, Fox, the phoenix lying on Dumbledore's shoulder, flapped its wings and screamed, and then a large amount of flames burst out from its body, wrapping both it and Dumbledore in it!

Gradually, the flames disappeared, and Dumbledore and Fawkes also disappeared.

Mike and others were stunned, and Ron and Neville were even more eager to catch up.

However, at this moment, several people lying on the floor suddenly started to move.

Professor McGonagall quickly pushed Ron and Neville to the ground, while still using her eyes to signal Mike to do the same.

But there was no need for her to remind him. Mike was already lying on the ground, pretending to be unconscious.

Not long after they lay down, the senior Aurors got up from the ground first, and then Fudge and Umbridge also woke up one after another.

"Where has he gone? Find him quickly!"

Fudge rubbed his head and shouted anxiously.

Delis and others quickly reacted and began to observe their surroundings.

However, Dumbledore was nowhere to be seen at this moment. The surroundings were full of messy garbage and various wood fragments.

"Quick! Quick! Stairs!" Fudge shouted, "He can't disapparate at Hogwarts. He must have run along the stairs. Go and chase him!"

Delis shook his head helplessly and said:

"It's useless, Mr. Minister. I'm afraid you forgot that Dumbledore also has a phoenix, and the phoenix can take people with him to apparate. And what's worse is that the anti-disapparation in Hogwarts The curse is ineffective against the phoenix. In other words, Dumbledore should have been sent away by the phoenix."

Fudge stared at Delis in confusion for a while before he realized what he was doing. He kicked the wall viciously, shaking the magic portraits on the wall violently, and at the same time received a burst of curses from the portraits.

At this time, Mike, Mag and others also stood up pretending to have just woken up.

"Hmph! Minerva." Fudge dusted himself off and said viciously, "He won't always be so lucky, I promise!"

"Really? I don't think so."

Seemingly irritated by Professor McGonagall's words, he waved his hands toward McGonagall, Mike and the others fiercely, and said:

"We'll see then! But now, you'd better take them out of here!"

Professor McGonagall did not continue to say anything, and silently led Mike, Ron and others towards the door.

Mike took a deep look at the embarrassed Fudge, with a meaningful smile on his face.

…

Today is Friday, and Mike and the others were supposed to go to class as normal.

But after leaving the principal's office, Professor McGonagall asked Mike and others to return directly to their respective lounges so that they could make up for their fatigue from last night.

Mike didn't have any psychological burden, so he slept soundly.

And when he woke up and went to the auditorium for dinner, he found that a notice had been posted in every corner of Hogwarts.

Ministry of Magic Order

Dolores-Jane Umbridge (Senior Investigator) is here to replace Dumbledore, who is on the run in fear of crime, as the Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

The above regulations are in compliance with the "Education Order No. 28".

When the members of the mutual aid club saw that Mike was awake, they dutifully began to report to Mike the changes in the school that day.

Only then did Mike realize that there are various opinions about this notice in Hogwarts nowadays.

Some people swore that Dumbledore had a terrifying battle with the Aurors from the Ministry of Magic, and even escaped unscathed after killing several Aurors.

Some people also say that Fudge and the others attacked Dumbledore secretly, but were defeated by Dumbledore. Poor Fudge was seriously injured, and his head was swollen as big as a pumpkin. He was currently lying in St. Mungo's recovering from his injuries. .

But no matter what the statement is, one thing is confirmed.

That was when a violent conflict broke out between Dumbledore and the Ministry of Magic, and then Dumbledore left Hogwarts.

As for the punishment of Mike and others, members of the mutual aid association also got some information.

The new principal Umbridge didn't seem to have any intention of punishing Mike and others.

Mike guessed that she had just taken over Hogwarts and was immersed in the feast of power and had no time to care about them.

Shaking his head, Mike came to the corner of the auditorium, where Harry, Hermione and others were gathering to comfort Ron, who had his face covered, and Neville, who looked disappointed.

"Mike, are you okay?"

Hermione stood up from her seat excitedly and groped Mike vigorously.

"I'm fine, Hermione." Mike stopped Hermione's movements and said with a smile, "I feel great after a good sleep."

"You actually fell asleep?"

Ron said in disbelief.

"certainly!"

"Oh! That's great, I feel terrible!" Ron lowered his head in despair, "I didn't even close my eyes."

Hearing this, Harry and Hermione looked at each other, their eyes full of helplessness.

Obviously, they had already persuaded Ron before Mike arrived, but the effect was not very good.

"Dumbledore is gone, and it's all my fault! If it weren't for my inability to keep secrets, that old toad Umbridge wouldn't be the headmaster at all!"

As soon as he said this, Mike noticed that Hermione lowered her head in disappointment.

Mike knew very well that she must be blaming herself at this moment.

Because the list full of military members has always been kept by her.

But in order to save trouble, she did not hide the list properly, but directly hung it in the response room and used it as an ordinary roll call book.

This also allowed Umbridge's men to find the list easily, thus indirectly forcing Dumbledore to leave Hogwarts.

Mike didn't speak, patted Hermione's back gently, and cast a comforting look at her.

The latter gave Mike a very forced smile.

"Oh! I can't blame you!" Harry frowned and said, "We all know very well that Umbridge used very terrible torture on you in order to get you to speak. No matter who it is, the result will be the same!"

Hearing this, Mike's eyebrows twitched, and he said while looking at Neville:

"Not always."

Harry also noticed Neville, and the expression on his face immediately became very embarrassed.

"No, I'm just a loser!" Ron lowered his head in frustration, "They used the same torture on Neville, but Neville held on and didn't say anything, but I...wuwuwu!"

Mike and the others looked at each other speechlessly, while Neville raised his hands and was a little confused.

After crying for a while, Ron raised his head again and said to Neville:

"Neville, if anyone says you are not worthy of Gryffindor House in the future, I will definitely kick their ass! Your courage is stronger than all of us! If only I had your courage!"

Mike nodded silently. As a time traveler who had read the complete original work, he had a very deep impression of the character of Neville.

This little fat guy who initially seemed cowardly and incompetent actually had great courage hidden deep in his heart. He was definitely the little wizard who best represented the spirit of Gryffindor in the entire Hogwarts.

Such a character deserves any words of praise!

Harry and the others nodded when they heard this, but did not speak. It could be seen that their moods were not so good because of Dumbledore's departure.

Mike shook his head and said to Harry:

"Harry, are you still learning Occlumency from Snape?"

As soon as he said this, Harry glanced at Mike in surprise, and the expression on his face became very strange.

"Uh, yes." Harry said awkwardly, "But I had an accident recently, and I found... Oh! Forget it, let's not talk about it!"

Seeing Harry's dejected look, Mike immediately understood what was going on.

The plot of the original book should have already happened. Harry should have used his armor to protect himself from the Legilimency spell that Snape used to test the effect of his brain closure, thus knowing what happened between Snape and his father.

As for the experience between Snape and Harry Potter's father, James Potter, in Mike's opinion, it was a complete tragedy.

Young Snape entered Hogwarts together with his beautiful childhood sweetheart Lily Potter, and the two entered Slytherin House and Gryffindor House respectively.

Then James Potter used his humorous personality, handsome appearance and prominent family background to take Lily away from Snape.

And because of jealousy and Gryffindor's natural dislike of Slytherin, James also teamed up with Sirius and others to bully Snape inhumanely.

Of course, this is entirely McGonagall's personal opinion. The love and hatred between them are too complicated. It is difficult to say who is at fault and who is right. But there is no doubt that Snape must have been attracted by James in the first place. It was very miserable.

What Harry saw was exactly how his father bullied Snape.

That's why Harry's expression was so complicated.

After all, his father had always been a righteous and good man in his fantasy, and now he suddenly discovered the dark history of his father's youth, which made Harry completely unable to accept it for a moment.

Shaking his head, Mike continued:

"Well, what I want to say is that I can actually do Occlumency. I didn't tell you before because Snape's teaching skills are better. Now if you think Snape can't teach you, then You can try to let me teach you."

Hearing this, Harry and Hermione's expressions became extremely excited.

"Really!? This is really great!" Harry jumped up from his seat and shouted excitedly, "I can finally stand Snape's old bat anymore!"

"Then you can come directly to my dormitory after class tomorrow, and I will teach you there. Originally, the Requirement Room was the best choice, but now...hey, I won't talk about it anymore."

"Got it, I'll be there on time!"

Mike nodded with satisfaction and was about to leave, but at this moment Hermione said weakly:

"that……"

"What's wrong, Hermione?"

"Can I go? I also want to learn Occlumency."

"Of course, I welcome everyone who wants to learn." Mike said with a smile, "Same for you, Ron and Neville. You can come if you want to learn."
