The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

However, Harry received hero treatment at dinner that evening.

The red-haired twins shouted Harry the Boxer's name and even used Transfiguration to create a golden belt and tie it to Harry's body, turning the entire Gryffindor into a lively scene.

Harry then realized that school had only just started.

The entire Gryffindor class only has a dozen or so bonus points, so even if Harry loses them all, it won't be many. He can earn them back slowly later.

However, Harry punching Malfoy into the hospital was enough for them to brag about for a while, especially when facing Slytherin students.

Unfortunately, the festivities didn't last long before Professor McGonagall arrived, gave Harry another dressing down, and increased his punishment.

That means going to apologize to Malfoy.

Although Harry was very reluctant to accept it, he still went to the school hospital, and before he even entered the hospital, he heard Malfoy's roar.

"I will never forgive those two bastards, that damned Potter, that damned Dursley!"

Harry pushed open the door and went in. The moment Malfoy saw Harry, he trembled and then reached for his wand.

"Anyone who dares to lay a hand on me here, I'll turn them to stone for a whole night!"

Mrs. Pomfrey roared, stunning everyone present.

Especially when he saw the potion in Madam Pomfrey's hand, even Malfoy, who was grimacing in pain, had no choice but to obediently admit defeat.

At this moment, he even missed Dolly's healing spell.

At least it won't make him suffer for a whole day before he recovers.

No, no.

If you think like that, won't you get beaten up and cause problems?

Malfoy shook his head, then said fiercely, "Potter, what are you doing here? Going to keep hurting your classmates?"

"I've come to apologize, Malfoy."

Harry raised his chin, his neck stiff, showing no intention of bowing his head.

Ignoring Malfoy's bewildered expression, she said, "Professor McGonagall sent me, so I had no choice but to come. I'm sorry, Malfoy."

"However, some people who deserve their fate should be thrown into Azkaban, not in the school hospital."

"Mr. Potter, get out of here, right now!"

It was Mrs. Pomfrey who spoke; she clearly could not stand idly by and watch the conflict continue.

Harry didn't mind, apologized to Madam Pomfrey, and then turned and left.

Malfoy was left with a flushed face, wishing he could bite someone hard.

Malfoy was genuinely furious.

He was certainly angry at being bullied by Dolly, but not to this extent.

Because Dolly is truly powerful, whether it's through spells, fists, or surviving alone in the French wilderness for almost half a month.

Malfoy didn't say these things to himself, but he knew he probably couldn't do it.

So even when Malfoy said he wanted to take revenge on Dolly, he only did so with his men to launch a sneak attack. As for the duel, it was just a rhetoric to persuade Snape.

But Harry is different.

What is he?

He's just a little kid hiding behind his sister; Malfoy feels he could handle such a guy all by himself.

Now, having been ambushed by Harry and hospitalized, such an embarrassing incident is almost burning Malfoy's heart.

So after taking the potion, Malfoy began writing a second letter to urge his father to reply, without waiting for a response.

He wanted his father's help to teach Dolly and Harry a lesson and show everyone that no one could mess with him at school.

What Malfoy found hard to accept was that his father had not replied for a long time, as if he was hesitating.

It wasn't until seven days after his last beating were approaching that Malfoy couldn't help but ask his father in a sorrowful tone why he hadn't helped him.

Are we just going to let our child be bullied by Harry Potter and his sister?

This time, Malfoy finally received a reply.

To be precise, it was a house-elf who arrived, carrying a message from Lucius.

“Young master, my master asked me to tell you that if you want to deal with Lady Dorisley, you need to obtain at least some evidence.”

"If you can't even get evidence, then it's only natural that you were beaten by the Dursley Wizard."

Chapter 212, Part 1: The More Terrified Dobbie.

Malfoy could hardly believe his ears. Was this really the same father who doted on him?

He was beaten by Dolly and Harry, so did his father just stand by and watch him get beaten?

However, Malfoy misunderstood Lucius.

Lucius could not possibly ignore the fact that his son had been beaten and remain indifferent; if he could, he would also want to avenge his son.

Not to mention Dolly, he even wanted to overthrow Dumbledore, but unfortunately he didn't have the ability.

Moreover, Lucius is now acting like a frightened bird.

Why do you say that?

Because Lucius already understood that the diary he sent to the school was meant to unlock the secret room.

Moreover, the diary works on its own; all he has to do is cooperate with it.

This diary is also the Dark Lord's diary, so Lucius is actually trying to overthrow Dumbledore with the already dead Dark Lord.

How could this not terrify Lucius?

Even when he was alive, the Dark Lord was no match for Dumbledore, let alone now that the Dark Lord is dead.

So Lucius's initial idea was actually to deal with official business.

Once he delivers this diary to Hogwarts, he won't need to do anything else.

At most, he would use his position as a school board member to seize Dumbledore's position when Dumbledore was successfully expelled from Hogwarts.

Unfortunately, reality slapped him in the face.

That is, he joined forces with officials from the Ministry of Magic to try to prove Dumbledore's incompetence, but the group was unable to break the magic set up by Dumbledore, let alone open the legendary Chamber of Secrets.

This makes the situation rather awkward.

Although Dumbledore was indeed old, even senile, and somewhat eccentric.

But it still exceeded the sum of all of them, which almost made Fudge lose face.

The only way to deal with this is to treat it as if it never happened, minimize its impact as much as possible, and allow Dumbledore to continue as the headmaster of Hogwarts.

Lucius naturally dared not, and could not, have any opinion on this.

Even at this point, Lucius had almost given up hope.

He felt that he had done everything he could for Voldemort, and that what happened next was no longer his concern.

After all, Voldemort is dead, yet he is still carrying out Voldemort's plans and missions. Doesn't that count as loyalty?

Then the problem is coming.

Why was Lucius still carrying out Voldemort's plans even after Voldemort died?

It all boils down to one word: fear.

Moreover, Lucius didn't entirely believe that Voldemort was really dead.

This wasn't because he was completely loyal to Voldemort, but rather because he was cautious and dared not completely betray Voldemort.

If Voldemort were to return, at least he would have a tiny chance to save himself.

Then, this opportunity to save himself came in handy during the Christmas holidays.

Lucius never expected that his Dark Mark would be activated at this moment.

What is the Black Mark?

The answer is that the Dark Mark is the symbol of Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

Every Death Eater is branded with this mark on their left forearm, and during the First Wizarding War, whenever Voldemort and the Death Eaters killed someone, they would use the spell "Resurrected Bones" to launch this mark into the air.

The Black Mark is usually branded on the inside of the left forearm, and normally looks like a bright red tattoo. But when activated by touch, it turns jet black.

Voldemort would brand this mark on the arms of Death Eaters, both as a way for them to identify each other and as a code for Voldemort to summon them back to his side.

If Voldemort presses his finger on the Dark Mark on a Death Eater's arm, the mark will be activated and turn black. At the same time, all marks on the arms of Death Eaters, or those designated by Voldemort, will also be activated and turn charred black, and the marks will feel like they are burning.

Upon sensing Voldemort's call, all Death Eaters must immediately Apparate to his side, or they may be considered traitors.

The intensity of the Dark Mark on Voldemort's arm was related to his condition. After Voldemort's first defeat, the mark on the Death Eaters had faded.

Only Voldemort's most core followers would be branded with the Dark Mark, which was considered a great honor by his followers.

Although Lucius was not very strong, as one of the richest Death Eaters, he was naturally a key member of Voldemort's staff and was branded with the Dark Mark.

The Dark Mark on Lucius's body had disappeared, but it suddenly reappeared during the holiday and released a burning sensation, guiding Lucius in a certain direction.

Lucius dared not delay, and immediately changed into his black disguise and Apparated to the Forbidden Forest outside Hogwarts.

There, he saw a short wizard, also dressed in black, exuding an ominous aura.

Although he didn't look like Voldemort, Lucius still knelt down and begged for mercy.

Lucius later learned that this man claimed to be Voldemort's messenger, gathering strength for Voldemort's return, and that Lucius's task was to obey his orders.

Lucius naturally dared not refuse. Even though the figure in front of him looked somewhat familiar, Lucius still dared not take a serious look or try to find out who this person was.

Thus, Lucius received his first mission: to kill Dori Desley.

He found it strange that it was Doris again.

Although she was excellent, even powerful, she was still just a little witch, merely Harry's cousin.

Why did you attack her?
