Chapter 708: Returning to Hogwarts
Outside the web of light, Evan was doing the finishing touches.
The few Death Eaters who did not flee in haste had reacted. They gradually calmed down and began to fight back.
They attacked Evan through Fiendfyre, and the spells were swishing over, most of them missed!
Even so, Evan still felt the pressure gradually increasing. He backed away while defending, hoping Harry could be faster.
All that had to be done was done, he killed Nagini, and Voldemort was scared enough by his wandā¦
All that needed to be done now was to leave here and return to Hogwarts. It was not good to stay any longer.
A magic reaction had already appeared on the Portkey in Evanās hand; as long as Harry came over, the two of them could leave at any time.
āHarry, hurry up!ā He turned and shouted, hoping that Harry could hear.
Harry didnāt hear Evanās shout because of the isolation of the web of light, but his fatherās ghost clearly heard it.
āVery good, come on, Harry, with that boy,ā said James, ābe ready to run⦠do it now!ā
āWell!ā Harry didnāt think he could have held on for another moment anyway. He pulled his wand upward with an almighty wrench, and the golden thread broke; the cage of light vanished, the phoenix song died⦠but the shadowy figures of Voldemortās victims did not disappear. They were closing in upon Voldemort, shielding Harry from his gazeā¦
Harry turned around and ran with all his strength towards Evan in the distance.
āYou losers, stun them both!ā Voldemort snapped, āKill them!ā
The ghosts were surrounding him, and he had no way to get rid of them.
But that did not prevent him from using magic⦠Voldemort waved his wand hard.
All the flames in the open space disappeared instantly, only the strong smell of scorching and wailing sound echoed.
After Fiendfyre disappeared, all the Death Eaters hurriedly approached, not giving Evan the chance to cast powerful magic. Jets of red and green light flew in the air and ran towards Harry.
He now had no time to aim at all, and could only attack casually, casting the simplest spells on the Death Eaters following him.
āImpedimenta! Stupefy!ā
From a muffled yell, Evan knew he had stopped at least one of them, but there was no time to stop and look. There were wand blasts behind him.
āGet down, Harry, get down!ā Evan leapt forward vigorously, rushed at Harry, and pressed him to the ground.
They escaped the intensive spells attack and rolled on the groundā¦
āStand aside, I will kill them, theyāre mine!ā shrieked Voldemort, breaking free from the ghosts.
The ghosts gradually dissipated and vanished into the air, and Harry saw his parents watching himā¦
Next to them were Voldemortās terrible red eyes, his mouth curled into a smile, and he raised his wand high.
The next second, Harry got his eyes blurred and felt the jerk behind his navel. Voldemort and the Death Eaters disappeared, and he and Evan were swept away in a whirl of wind and color, and they left the place.
Both of them returned to Hogwarts! Not in the lake, but in an office.
The scene in front of Harryās eyes gradually became clear, and he saw a large mirror on the wall, with blurred shadows shaking in it.
That was Moodyās Foe-Glass, they had returned to Professor Moodyās office!
āEvan, what on earth is going on?ā Harry asked, seeing Evan lying panting next to him.
He was still wearing ragged Gabrielleās robes, only a few strands of cloth hanging on themā¦
Evan was holding a bat-like object tightly in his left hand; the Portkey Caresius had given him.
āWhy did you become Gabrielle? and Voldemortā¦ā Harry stopped abruptly, and said quickly with excitement, āVoldemort has recovered his body. We must tell Dumbledore about it!ā
āHeāll be here soon, and youāll tell him then,ā said Evan, without any strength, leaning on Harry weakly.
Fighting a dozen Death Eaters wasnāt an easy task. If it werenāt for the factor of surprise, he wouldnāt have had a chance.
Two high-level Dark magic and many other spells in succession had exhausted his magic and physical strength. In particular, the spirit that had been tightened to the limit was now suddenly relaxed, leaving only endless drowsiness and fatigue in his body.
There was silence around them, and they were lying on the floor of the office. Evan intermittently told Harry the reason for what had just happened.
He started with Mr. Barty Crouch and his son Barty Crouch Jr., and talked about the plot they planned to put Ronās name into the Goblet of Fire ⦠he also talked about Caresius, the vampire disguised as Moody to enter Hogwartsā¦
And then they learned from Caresius about Voldemortās plan, and knew that he was going to do it in the second task, and had prepared accordingly.
Harry listened, very surprised, and from time to time interrupted and asked a few questions.
As to why Voldemort used Harryās blood and why they didnāt stop him from returning, Evan didnāt tell Harry the truth. It was not the right time. He just said that he assumed the form of Gabrielle to protect Harry.
As for some of the loopholes, Harry didnāt notice. In fact, he was already speechless in surprise.
āI canāt believe it!ā said Harry. āNo wonder Ron said earlier that he saw the name of the vampire on the Marauderās Map that night. So, the vampire was helping us and Cedric was taken away by him and I donāt know what happened. By the way, that Batty Crouch Jr. ⦠he ā¦ā
Just then, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and the door of Professor Moodyās office was opened!
A group of people came in, headed by Dumbledore, and his face was as calm as ever. But there was no benign smile, and there was no twinkle in the eyes behind the spectacles. There was cold fury in every line of the ancient face; a sense of power radiated from Dumbledore to make one feel strange and scared.
Behind him were Sirius and Snape. Snape was still the same; not panicking by Voldemortās return at all, just gloomier. freeweb novel. com
Sirius was much more agitated, and he seemed to have experienced a fierce battle, forcing a man to come in.
The man was pale-skinned, slightly freckled, with a mop of fair hair. It was Barty Crouch Jr.
Evan had seen him before in the Pensieve, and he was exactly the same when he was taken away from the court by the Dementors.
But now, he was lined around the eyes and looked much olderā¦
During the period when Evan and Harry were taken away by the Portkey, Sirius had caught the guy.
