No one in the Dursleys noticed anything amiss; Vernon and Penny, having finished tidying everything up, were watching a soap opera together.

Harry has arrived at his new room, and although there is only one bed in the room, he is still too excited to sleep.

Dumbledore opened the door, glanced at Harry from afar, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, and then closed the door and left.

Finally, they arrived at Dolly's door on the second floor.

He initially wanted to go straight into the room, but then thought that it might not be a good idea.

So he knocked on the door, and Dolly's voice came from inside.

"Who?"

Dolly had finished examining her body and, having confirmed that she could not sense any signs of magic, had essentially given up.

Hearing the knock on the door, I thought it was my parents.

It couldn't possibly be Harry, because Harry is forbidden from going up to the second floor.

However, the person did not answer and continued to knock on the door.

Dolly didn't think much of it, assuming it was something wrong with her parents. But when she opened the door, she found a strange old man standing outside.

He had silver-white hair that reached his waist and was long enough to be tucked into his belt.

Blue eyes wearing crescent-shaped glasses gleamed with wisdom under the light, seemingly able to see right through people.

Tall and slender, with long, delicate fingers crossed, he displayed a calm and elegant posture.

Seeing the plump child before him, Dumbledore was about to introduce himself when the door slammed shut.

Dumbledore was momentarily taken aback when he saw the tightly closed door.

He looked himself over again to make sure there was nothing wrong with him before knocking on the door.

Dolly, inside the room, was pale and her heart was pounding.

Why is Dumbledore here?

Dolly wasn't afraid that Dumbledore would harm her. The old man might have some selfish motives or even bad intentions, but one thing was certain: Dumbledore was going to be a saint.

He has extremely high moral standards for himself, and even if Dolly kicks his butt right now, he would never hurt a child.

But Dolly is a time traveler, and now Dumbledore has come looking for her. It must be because she just added a little bit of magic power, right?

You should know that Dumbledore is a master of mind reading, also known as Legilimency, and he is a master among masters.

What if the other party realizes that she is a time traveler?

At that moment, the system, seemingly eager to stir up trouble, also started beeping.

[Breaking News! Faced with Dumbledore's sudden arrival, how will Miss Dolly display her charm to make a lasting impression on him about this new student?]

[As expected, it all comes down to Miss Dolly's unparalleled charm!]

15 Welcome to Diagon Alley

Hagrid had naturally anticipated this.

Unlike Harry, who was virtually unknown in the Muggle world, Harry Potter was a household name in the wizarding world.

After all, he was the one who survived a great calamity and killed that person whose name could not be spoken; he was the one who brought peace to the magic world.

All those who were dissatisfied with Voldemort's dark rule, or those whose friends or relatives had died at the hands of Death Eaters, naturally felt grateful for Harry's kindness.

So one by one, the wizards began to stand up and greet Harry, giving brief self-introductions.

Some people even wanted to buy Harry a drink, but Hagrid firmly refused.

After all, they had important things to do, and Harry wasn't old enough to drink alcohol.

After doing all this, Hagrid glanced at the Dursleys behind him with a smile.

It's as if it's saying, "Please get to know Harry Potter again; they're not people you can bully."

Although Dumbledore and McGonagall both told Hagrid that the Dursleys had now reconciled.

However, Hagrid still wanted to be one of Harry's protectors, since Harry's parents and Hagrid were both members of the Order of the Phoenix and comrades-in-arms in the fight against Voldemort.

"Dolly, it's okay."

Vernon felt uneasy, not because he felt neglected.

He's a working professional after all, so he's seen this kind of situation before.

He was just worried that his daughter might become the one who gets bullied in this strange and dangerous world.

Especially Hagrid's look just now made Vernon think twice.

"If you're not happy here, we'll learn a few spells and then drop out."

"Anyway, our purpose in coming here is to control the magic power within us. Who would really like this place anyway?"

Vernon spoke softly, but the wizards around him still heard him.

Immediately, a pair of surprised eyes turned to the three people, and someone even asked in an unfriendly tone, "Muggle?"

Penny's eyes widened in terror as she tried to shield Dolly behind her.

However, Dolly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Yes, we are Muggles."

"Can't Muggles learn magic?"

The man's lips curled into a cold smile, and he was about to say something sarcastic.

But then he suddenly realized something, and a bead of cold sweat rolled down his forehead.

Discrimination against Muggles is actually quite common in the wizarding community, especially in places like bars.

After a few drinks, people will say things they wouldn't normally dare to say, and few will take them seriously.

But what is the current environment?

Harry the Savior is right here; he's the one who killed Voldemort.

Voldemort, along with his Death Eaters who slaughtered Muggles and Muggle-born wizards, had become a pariah in the wizarding world.

What would happen if he said something discriminatory about Muggles in front of Harry at this moment?

I'm afraid that even in a bar, they would be attacked by a mob.

"No, of course."

The man replied in a slightly hoarse voice, "Congratulations, little witch, you will love the magical world."

"Definitely, I promise."

After saying that, he turned his head away and started drinking.

The atmosphere in the bar gradually returned to normal, and then people started greeting Dolly.

Although these kind wizards did not believe that Dolly had actually set a verbal trap.

But the fact that they dared to stand up already puts them ahead of most of their peers.

Another promising wizard in the making!

Unfortunately, compared to the hundreds of millions of Muggles, the number of wizards is simply too small.

Even though the probability of a wizard emerging from the Muggle community is very low, the decline of pure-blood wizards is an unstoppable trend.

Look at those noble families, they can't even have many children, how can they continue their family's glory?

Oh, except for the red-haired Weasleys.

Harry realized something was wrong and quickly went back to Dolly's side.

He had no oath to protect Dolly's safety.

Dolly smiled at him and then asked Harry, "How does it feel to be the center of attention?"

"If you like it, it will take a lot of effort to maintain this feeling in the future."

Judging from the original work, Harry undoubtedly enjoyed this feeling and was elated by it more than once.

However, Harry does have some leadership skills. His only problem is that he is not good enough in all aspects and needs Hermione as an external brain.

But now that Hermione is gone, the external brain has naturally become Dolly's.

So Harry whispered, "Nothing much, I have no idea what happened."

"This makes me feel very uncomfortable; I always feel like I might fall down at any moment."

Dolly glanced at Harry in surprise and said, "I didn't expect our Harry to be so sensible."

"Alright, sister, you're only seven days older than me. Don't keep talking like you're much older than me."

"Seven days is also your sister, your sister forever."

After saying that, Dolly gave Hagrid a polite smile and continued, "Mr. Hagrid, please don't do this kind of thing again."

Hagrid was a little nervous and uneasy; he hadn't expected Harry to value Dolly and the Dursleys so much.

What was meant to be a fun little arrangement for Harry now seems to have backfired.

"After all, so many people like Harry, which means there must be some people who hate Harry, right?"

Hagrid nodded, and that was indeed the case.

If there were any Death Eaters hiding among that group, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Hagrid looked somewhat dejected, but still led a few people to the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron.

Then, he tapped a few bricks in the backyard, and the bricks twisted open like sliding building blocks, slowly revealing a door to a magical world.

On the other side of the door is Diagon Alley, the most bustling street in the entire British wizarding world.

Although it looks like a small medieval street, it is bustling with people and wizards of all kinds dressed in wizard robes.

The presence of magical traces everywhere makes it hard to compare this to an ordinary Muggle commercial street.

Even Vernon, who was still muttering to himself, was dazzled by the sight.

I truly realized that this was another world, where poverty and dilapidation were just appearances, and the magic that was everywhere was the key to understanding everything.
