Chapter 1450

~5 min read 961 words

Hermione's eyes widened.

Ron showed an expression of disbelief.

"Those are all fairy tales; they couldn't possibly be real…"

"But how do you explain Dumbledore giving it specifically to me?"

Hermione asked suddenly.

Ron was speechless.

Harry looked at them blankly.

It was obvious he had never read that fairy tale.

Darren explained it to him simply.

"In the fairy tale book Headmaster Dumbledore gave Hermione, there is a story about the Deathly Hallows."

"It is said that there was a person… who created an Invisibility Cloak, a Resurrection Stone, and an Elder Wand, and it is said that they could escape death."

"That's ridiculous, isn't it?"

Ron said with wide eyes.

But Harry didn't laugh.

"I feel like Voldemort seems… he seems to really want it… plus… Dumbledore borrowed my father's Invisibility Cloak… could it be…"

None of them could offer any constructive suggestions.

Finally, the question had to be shelved.

Darren said nothing.

He was more concerned about what Harry had just said.

Voldemort seemed to be able to monitor him through Harry.

Good grief…

Voldemort was really hunting for the Elder Wand while keeping an eye on him.

This is truly…

A good father, indeed. Darren wanted to laugh.

But he didn't.

Because at this moment, Harry and the others were discussing how to sneak into the Ministry of Magic together.

"We can't let you go alone, but we can all go together… even if we die, we should die together."

Harry said firmly.

Although Darren wanted to say he didn't want to die with him, he naturally couldn't say it out loud.

So he held back those words.

To sneak into the Ministry of Magic, Harry and the others made many preparations.

Every day, they would take turns Apparating out to scout for news about the Ministry of Magic.

Of course, they hoped to run into Umbridge.

If they could rob Umbridge, it might be even better.

But unfortunately.

Currently, the Ministry of Magic suggested using the Floo Network for commuting.

A wizard like Umbridge would certainly not come to work by herself.

They couldn't intercept Umbridge at all.

If Ron hadn't known that more members of the Ministry of Magic wore navy blue robes, they might have had even less information.

The only two pieces of information they could get were what Darren had obtained from the Order of the Phoenix.

That was that Mafalda, the assistant to the Improper Use of Magic Office, often came to work by herself.

Another was the wizard Reg Cattermole, whose wife was accused of being Muggle-born; tomorrow was his wife's trial date, and he also needed to enter through the telephone booth.

As for the others, even the Ministry of Magic wasn't sure if those people would come to work by themselves.

Others were unpredictable; they liked to use various ways to get to work to ensure others wouldn't know their habits and catch them.

"Besides these, the Order of the Phoenix also brought today's Daily Prophet… I think if you read it, you might be even more shocked."

Darren said with a bad complexion.

Harry and the others took the Daily Prophet.

Then they immediately knew why Darren was angry.

Because it was written on it: Severus Snape Appointed Headmaster of Hogwarts.

Severus Snape, former senior professor at Hogwarts, now assumes the position of Hogwarts Headmaster.

This was the professor with the highest acclaim after Dumbledore's passing.

We will see a very outstanding Headmaster; he will carry out the excellent traditions of Hogwarts…

Harry and the others were trembling with anger.

Only Hermione suddenly remembered something.

She rushed into the room and took down Sirius's ancestor portrait, the portrait of Phineas Nigellus Black.

She cast some Confundus Charms and some Muffliato spells on the portrait.

"This way, he won't be able to hear or see… I think if Snape becomes Headmaster, he should have the right to demand Phineas provide him with help!"

Darren showed an admiring smile.

He praised: "Hermione, you really are the smartest young wizard I've ever met… well, Dumbledore and the others don't count; I mean, in our generation, you are the smartest wizard!"

Hermione smiled shyly.

"Not at all, you are the smartest wizard!"

"Alright, then I'll change my wording; you are the smartest witch!"

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

Hermione smiled sweetly.

Ron and Harry didn't want to watch them talk.

So they started discussing among themselves.

"Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick and the others shouldn't agree… they all know Dumbledore was killed by him…"

"But it's useless; now Voldemort controls everything. Even if they protest, they will just be driven out or killed… so they will definitely compromise; they will stay to protect more students…"

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

Darren said gloomily.

Sad expressions appeared on Harry and the others' faces.

"Then just let them do this?"

"Aren't we working hard right now to get everything back on track?"

Darren smiled.

Then he flipped through the newspaper again and said sadly and angrily: "Look at this… Alecto Carrow will be the Muggle Studies professor, and her brother Amycus Carrow will be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor…"

"With people like this as professors, it's hard to imagine what the students there will become!"

"I really want to go back to school and kill them both!"

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

"Oh, Darren, you can't do it, don't be silly… Unless you are pushed to the extreme, you can't even use Dark Magic!"

Hermione sighed softly.

"You are a good person… you don't even dare to kill a chicken!"
