Finally, could there be a break in the process of being shocked by her looks?

And this shock might not necessarily be a positive word, right?

Can't it be a neutral word or even a derogatory word?

Thinking of this, Dolly suddenly felt her fist harden.

03 Dumbledore arrives

"System, could you explain 'charm' and 'shock' again?"

Dolly tried to communicate with the system again, but this time the system did not give a reply.

The downside of not being able to communicate directly with the system is that you can't get the final say.

But Dolly doesn't dare let the system know more now; she'll figure it out herself.

She went to the wardrobe, opened it, and looked at the clothes that belonged to her.

The various oversized princess dresses made Dolly's face show a look of disgust.

If she were a beautiful Barbie girl, it would be fine, but now that she's a Beast Girl, isn't it a joke for her to wear these?

Although everyone has the right to pursue beauty, Dolly's own aesthetic sense tells her that this doesn't suit her current appearance.

After rummaging through the clothes, Dolly finally found a plain-colored dress.

Compared to other dresses, it was unremarkable, but its waistline was very high.

This allows for the artificial creation of a winding curve, making a person appear significantly thinner.

The Dolly of the past didn't care about that; she only wanted more elaborate and expensive dresses.

But now, Dolly just wants to start changing herself from today.

After all, she had difficulty walking, and her physical condition made her worry that she might suddenly die at any time.

After washing up, dressing, and tying her hair up, Dolly opened the door.

Two familiar faces from the movie appeared outside the door.

Fernon, who is also obese, and who at first glance seems fine, but upon closer inspection...

Upon closer inspection, however, one could almost discern a sharp-tongued, thin blonde woman in her brows.

In her past life, Dolly naturally disliked these two negative characters, feeling that they had caused Harry great harm.

But now, seeing the concern and worry on their faces, Dolly felt a genuine sense of warmth in her heart.

This is probably the emotion that the original owner of this body carried.

Thinking about this, Dolly also felt a little uneasy.

I wonder where the original Dolly went, whether she died or we swapped bodies?

Harry Potter is, after all, a world of magic, a place where souls exist.

With this in mind, Dolly decided to let go of her prejudices from her past life and follow her heart to accept the two people in front of her.

In this way, even if the original owner of this body comes knocking on her door one day, Dolly can have a clear conscience.

So Dolly tiptoed and gave Vernon and Penny a warm hug.

Then she smiled sweetly and said, "Good morning, Mom and Dad."

The parents were clearly taken aback by the woman's little gesture.

It's not surprising that Dolly, being a girl, displays a sweet and charming personality.

However, Dolly is a carbon copy of Dudley, and is almost identical to Dudley in every way except for gender.

Dolly's actions now make her seem like a completely different person.

Penny was so frightened that she quickly touched Dolly's forehead, and Vernon asked in alarm, "Dolly, are you feeling unwell?"

Dolly was well aware that her behavior would definitely frighten the parents.

But there's no way she could portray Dudley's volatile personality; she simply couldn't do it.

Although she claimed to have a bad temper in her past life, the fact that she would often beat up her family members was something she never even dared to imagine.

Fortunately, Dolly had already come up with a reason.

Imitating my past self, I crossed my arms and said with a grown-up look, "Dad, Mom, I'm 11 years old now."

"The TV said that an 11-year-old is already half an adult. From today onwards, I will hold myself to adult standards."

After hearing Dolly's words, Vernon and Penny looked at each other in bewilderment.

They then looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

The child has grown up!

They knew their child's personality was somewhat unstable, but she was just a child in the past, and she would grow up and become better someday.

The two even planned to stay with their temperamental daughter until she grew up, but they never expected that she would grow up at only 11 years old.

This is really...

Penny's eyes were filled with tears, and she was just about to say something.

Vernon quickly tugged at his wife's arm and winked at her.

Although in the original storyline, the two were negative characters full of flaws.

However, the two shared a genuine love, and even when Vernon learned that Penny's sister was a witch, it did not shake his determination to pursue Penny.

This has allowed the two to support each other through thick and thin to this day, and they have an extraordinary understanding of each other.

Penny immediately understood what her husband meant: their daughter might just be a passing fancy, so it was better not to get too excited or expectant.

Penny quickly wiped away her tears, took her daughter's arm, and said, "Okay, our little Miss Dolly."

"Let's celebrate your birthday like adults today. Your father and I will always be with you."

Vernon nodded repeatedly, smiling broadly, and said, "That's right, that's exactly it! An adult's day begins with a good breakfast!"

Ran, Vernon, and Penny each took one of Dolly's hands, and the three of them chatted and laughed as they went down the stairs.

The cheerful atmosphere came to an abrupt end when a boy wearing glasses and tattered clothes appeared.

He was like a stranger in a family, always able to instantly kill the atmosphere that should have been there.

The lightning bolt scar on his forehead seemed to be telling Penny and Vernon in a silent way.

They have a witch relative, and Harry may also be a male witch, potentially attracting demons from the wizarding world to bring about a bloody disaster in the future.

Especially on Dolly's birthday, Penny and Vernon's moods visibly soured.

The fact that both of them squeezed Dolly's hand so hard at the same time is the best evidence.

"Harry!"

Vernon instinctively shouted, "What did I tell you yesterday?"

"You're not allowed to leave your room all day today, or you'll disturb Dolly's birthday celebration. Don't you remember that?"

"You won't understand what I mean until I grab your ear and throw you back?"

"You promised me, you promised me, I even promised to save you some cake!"

"Even so, you still want to break your promise and disturb our family, is that it!"

Vernon's face was flushed red with fear and anger, and Harry's face was also visibly red.

It was clearly because of anger.

Anger is an emotion that has nothing to do with age, even for Harry, who was bullied from a young age.

Harry clenched his fists and, suppressing his anger, said, "Sir, Dolly just fell off the bed."

"The vibration shook the floor and filled my room with dust. I just came out to get a broom and clean it up."

"I've finished cleaning now and I'm going back to my room. I promise I won't come out again today."

Harry's words were reasonable and measured, but unfortunately, he mentioned Dolly.

In particular, blaming Dolly was an outcome that Vernon could not tolerate.

04 Accept Harry's suggestion

"Sophistry, lies, nonsense!"

Fernon released his daughter's hand and strode down the stairs like a brown bear swooping down from a tree trunk.

Harry instinctively tried to run away, but Vernon grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up.

Then Vernon shook Harry so hard he was completely disoriented, as if he were throwing clothes at him.

When Harry started rolling his eyes from nausea, she put him down, pointed at his nose, and said, "Today is Dolly's birthday!"

"No matter what your reason is, you cannot disturb my family!"

"Do you understand, Harry?"

"You can act crazy normally, but not today, absolutely not!"

"Use your stupid little brain to properly understand the word 'absolute,' and then answer me now: can you do it?"

Harry's initial anger had long since vanished.

He covered his dizzy forehead and whispered, "I understand, sir. I will definitely not disturb you."

"I can't hear you, speak louder!"

"Absolutely, sir! I'll go back to my room right away and I absolutely won't make a sound!"

At this point, Harry's voice was already trembling with emotion.

Vernon ignored this and waved his hand, pointing to Harry's room—which was actually the storage room under the stairs.

Harry then took difficult steps, walking slowly towards the door of the storage room.
