The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 591 Return to school
After opening the door again like before, they were greeted by a silver light. However, Ryan, who was well prepared, dodged it easily. Then he knocked Mrs. Malfoy unconscious with a strengthened stun spell.

"OK, let's go." Ryan used a levitation spell to lift up the unconscious Mrs. Malfoy and waved his hand. Hermione followed him and ran towards the entrance of the room.

"Have you picked up my mother?" Malfoy, who was standing in the entrance hall, was looking nervously into the dark corridor. When he saw Ryan walking out of the darkness, he asked anxiously.

"Yes, we brought your mother out, but now is not the time to explain, so we brought your mother out after knocking her unconscious. But don't worry, it won't cause any harm to her." Ryan explained. He was quite satisfied with Malfoy's current attitude. At least a person who cares about his family is more worth saving than the kind of person who doesn't recognize his relatives.

"That's good, that's good--" Malfoy breathed a sigh of relief. After being tense for so long, he finally found a reason that allowed him to take a break. "So, where are we going now?"

"Of course we have to go back to Hogwarts Castle. That's the only place that can protect you the most." Ryan said the next destination without thinking. "Okay, hold on to my arm, and we'll go back to Hogwarts now. Hermione will bring your mother with her."

With a very light explosion, the four people disappeared from the dark hallway, and the Malfoy mansion once again fell into complete darkness and silence.

"Ryan, Hermione, and Mr. Malfoy, what are you doing? And what happened here?" When Ryan and his friends Apparated back to the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle, a sharp voice came from behind them. Ryan turned around and saw the short Professor Flitwick looking at the four people who suddenly appeared in the corridor with a look of shock.

"We just rescued Mrs. Malfoy." Ryan explained to Professor Flitwick. "Because everything that happened here started when Mr. Malfoy just turned from evil to good--"

Although Professor Flitwick is a professor at the school and the head of Ravenclaw, he is not a member of the Order of the Phoenix. So Ryan explained to him the story he had made up before. After listening to these introductions, Professor Flitwick nodded with a heavy heart. "What a damn war, it actually requires you kids to fight bloody battles."

"Of course you don't have to worry about this causing any trouble for you." Seeing Ryan frowning as he thought about how to explain to Professor Dewey what happened tonight, Flitwick thought he was worried about killing the enemy just now, so he comforted him. "I can be sure that the people you just killed were all vicious dark wizards. No one will punish you for this. Okay, let's go downstairs together now. The enemies in the Forbidden Forest have also retreated. I think the enemy's attack on Hogwarts today is over."

After saying that, Flitwick took the lead and walked downstairs, muttering to himself as he went downstairs. "Severus, why did you--"

"I heard that your mother and Snape signed the Unbreakable Vow. Now can you tell me what the oath is?" Ryan asked Malfoy who was walking beside him as he went downstairs.

"Scarhead - Harry told you, right?" After thinking about his current situation, Malfoy answered Ryan's questions straightforwardly. "Actually, the content is very simple. It's just to ask him to protect my life and safety, and not to hinder my actions and provide me with help to the best of his ability."

"This seems to be different from the original book." Ryan thought. In the original book, the Unbreakable Vow required Snape to complete what Voldemort asked Draco to do, but this was not the case here. I think this is because Professor Dumbledore's current physical condition is not like the original book where he only has one year left to live, so the plan was changed. I just don't know how Snape will gain Voldemort's trust this time.

After arriving in the hall, Ryan found that the castle gate was still closed. It seemed that although the enemy had withdrawn, Professor McGonagall and his team still maintained vigilance in the school to avoid being attacked by the enemy.

"It's getting late now, you should have a good rest." Professor McGonagall was standing in the hall in a green robe at this time. After seeing Ryan and the others coming downstairs, she made arrangements. "Please leave the rest of the things to us professors. You did a great job just now. I'm proud of you." "By the way, Buck." Professor McGonagall whispered to the empty space beside her. After a popping sound, a house elf emerged from the air next to him. He was wearing a clean and tidy tea towel with the Hogwarts emblem embroidered on the tea towel on his chest.

"It's a pleasure to serve you, Professor McGonagall." The house elf named Buck called out in a shrill voice. "May I ask what you would like Buck to do?"

"Please take Mr. Malfoy and his mother to the lounge." Professor McGonagall ordered. As soon as she saw Mrs. Malfoy's condition, she roughly guessed what Ryan and the others had just said. So she asked Malfoy to accompany his mother directly, so that Mrs. Malfoy would not be too nervous when she woke up.

"No problem, sir, please follow me." The house-elf Buck snapped his fingers and summoned two more house-elves to use magic to carry Mrs. Malfoy steadily in front of them, and then took Malfoy to a guest room on the second floor. Ryan and the others also returned to the Gryffindor common room.

After waking up the Fat Lady and letting them in, as soon as Ryan entered the common room, he saw that almost all the Gryffindor students were standing in the common room instead of going to rest.

"What's the situation outside now? The other prefects came back more than an hour ago. I heard that the attackers were repelled. Is that true?" Harry asked in rapid succession.

"Yes, that's the situation. It's safe now, everyone can go and rest." Seeing everyone looking at him with pleading eyes, Ryan comforted everyone. "The enemy failed to cause any losses, we won this time."

"Great, I knew there would be no problem." "Hogwarts is indeed the safest place." "Thank Merlin for your protection." Amidst the noisy voices, the students' expressions relaxed and they all went upstairs to their respective dormitories. After all, it was already past midnight and everyone was very sleepy, so after hearing that everything was safe, they went back to sleep.

Only Harry and Ron stayed, and after everyone left they asked Ryan and Hermione what exactly happened tonight.

"The attack at the gate was only used to distract Hogwarts' strength. The real threat from the enemy is that they try to bypass Hogwarts' magical protection through one of the two vanishing cabinets in the Room of Requirement and send dark wizards in to attack the school." Ryan said simply. "I think the professors need to tell you the specific situation. I can only tell you that Hermione and I killed all the invaders tonight. Now we need to have a good rest."

"Is that so? Sorry, I didn't know." Harry suddenly felt the cruelty of war, and then made way for the stairs leading to the upstairs dormitory. When Ryan walked past him, he heard him whisper a thank you.

Harry always believed that fighting Voldemort and his lackeys was his duty, but today he hid in the safe common room and watched his friends fight bloody battles, which made him feel ashamed. So he said thank you from the bottom of his heart to Ryan and Hermione, who he thought were taking risks and fighting on his behalf.

"This war is not just yours, it's ours." Ryan stopped and looked Harry in the eyes and said seriously, "So you don't have to say thank you to me."

After saying that, Ryan turned and walked towards the dormitory. For him, this long day was over and he could finally have a good rest.
