The sickly, iron-fisted beauty in Harry Potter

As a result, Newt's workload increased many times over in such a short period of time.

He might be afraid of getting involved again and becoming another important pawn in Dumbledore's game.

Back then, Newt was pushed by Dumbledore to become a warrior against Grindelwald.

Although Newt was young and full of a sense of justice at that time, he didn't complain about anything.

But now that Newt is nearly 100 years old, he no longer wants to work so hard.

Dolly looked at the blue stone herself.

Although I have many ideas, I plan to put them aside for now.

As Newt said, human experimentation should be avoided if possible, and as for animal experimentation... well, that can wait.

So Dolly called Dobby, put the stone in a cloth bag, sealed it with magic, and gave it to Dobby for safekeeping.

Dolly did this because she was genuinely worried that once she placed the stone in a fixed location, it would be stolen.

After all, Dolly's magic wasn't powerful enough to set up as many traps as Voldemort and Dumbledore.

On the contrary, there aren't many people who can snatch things from Dobby.

Or rather, there aren't many people who can find Dobi.

The Dursleys cleared out the attic and gave Dobby his own little house, fully furnished and even including a television.

However, this is indeed a bit too advanced for Dobby.

After resolving this matter, Dolly turned her attention to Snow.

Then, with a flick of his wand, Snow's bright blue fur turned black and white.

It's actually a Border Collie color scheme, but the design is a bit odd.

However, this is not a big deal. Ordinary people who see this appearance will only think that this Border Collie has a strange lineage.

The reason it was made to look like a Border Collie was so that even if the neighbors saw how intelligent it was, they wouldn't find it strange.

"Snow, remember, from now on you are a member of this family."

"Don't easily display your great power and magic in front of others, except when my parents and relatives are in danger, understand?"

Dolly was delighted with Snow's arrival, but she still couldn't take him to Hogwarts.

So when Dolly starts school, Snow will be spending time with the Dursleys, and even be their bodyguard.

Snow nodded emphatically, clearly understanding.

Its intelligence was so obvious that Dolly didn't need to say anything more, so she called out the Dursleys to welcome Snow's arrival.

After everyone had petted Snow until he was rolling around on the ground, Vernon volunteered to take Snow out for a walk.

At first, Snow was a little reluctant to use the dog leash, but after seeing the steak Penny had prepared, Snow completely evolved from a magical ice crystal wolf into a domestic dog.

What's all this talk about dignity? Where can you find beef that tastes better?

It, Snow, eats only beef!

Dolly and Harry joined them this time, and the family enjoyed a happy time together.

But halfway there, Snow suddenly stopped.

Dolly followed Snow's gaze and saw the shadow of a large black dog flash by.

Dolly immediately realized that Sirius wouldn't give up so easily.

But it doesn’t matter.

Dolly wasn't afraid of it before, but now that Snow is around, she's even less afraid.

Sirius Black in his dog form was dealt with by Snow, while Dolly in his human form was handled by Snow.

This is assuming Sirius actually dared to harass her.

However, Dolly soon saw the Auror appear, and now she no longer had to worry.

Clearly, the Aurors at the grassroots level are quite pragmatic, and may even have their eyes on this big black dog.

If Sirius keeps wandering around like this, his true identity as an Animagus and a black dog might soon be exposed.

After all, Sirius Black escaped from prison with Peter Pettigrew, and there was also their relationship.

If given a hint, an ordinary person would think that Sirius Black might also be an Animagus.

Snow's arrival brought energy and joy to the Dursleys.

Now, even if Vernon is busy and Dolly doesn't want to play boys' games with Harry, Harry has his own friends.

The two, Dolly and her dog, were having a great time, but Dolly was still thinking about the Patronus.

During this time, Dolly's friends naturally came to visit as well.

Hermione, Fleur, and even Luna arrived on the Knight Bus.

Everyone naturally ate, drank, and had fun together, and had a very happy time.

However, since she couldn't stay overnight, Dolly naturally couldn't enjoy the close, intimate contact she had at school, which made her realize for the first time how much she looked forward to the start of the school year.

Especially as they got older, both Hermione and Cho Chang's figures began to show visible changes.

The thought of not being able to help Hermione measure her growth every day made Dolly feel like she was wasting her time.

Time flies by so quickly.

Hermione and Cho Chang eventually went on their trip, carrying out their plans.

Dolly's travel plans were naturally ruined, but fortunately Luna became a regular at the Dursleys' house, spending almost every day with Dolly practicing magic.

This made the two of them very close and talk about everything.

"Luna, I don't know if your family accepts investment."

Luna looked at Dolly in surprise, not understanding what Dolly was saying for a moment.

"As you can see, our family is actually quite wealthy."

"So I was thinking, could we do some business in the magical world? After all, apart from you, none of us have any connections in the magical world."

Luna nodded and said, "If you want to open a shop, you need to register with the Ministry of Magic, but the process isn't too complicated."

"No, I don't plan to open my own shop. After all, I don't have the time or energy to manage it, do I?"

“I think we can change things up a bit, or I could invest in your family to start a publishing house and publish some other things.”

Luna stared at Dolly in surprise, her eyes flashing with a silver light, lost in thought.

"Dolly..."

After a long silence, Luna finally spoke: "If this is the way you want to help me..."

She bit her lip lightly, and Dolly could almost see a girl struggling with her pride.

Luna doesn't actually mind being mocked or what others think of her.

She can go to class and live her life in worn-out, unsuitable clothes without a care in the world, but Luna will be deeply hurt if her closest friends think that she is not dressed properly.

Dolly chuckled and understood.

Do you think I hate you?

Luna didn't answer directly, but she clearly had this idea in mind.

Dolly sighed, turned to look around to make sure no one was in the living room, then hugged Luna and, to Luna's surprise, kissed her on the cheek.

At the same time, he pressed his forehead against Luna's and said, "I wish I could eat you up like the sweetest ice cream. Would I hate you?"

"Believe it or not, I could collect all the clothes you're wearing."

After saying that, Dolly watched as a lovely blush appeared on Luna's pale cheeks, and then she released Luna with satisfaction.

Well, in a sense, Dolly went a bit too far.

Unfortunately, Dolly's feelings toward Luna were complicated.

For Dolly, the image of the breathtakingly beautiful Luna, who had stolen her first kiss, was a constant presence in her mind.

There is no doubt that Luna the older and Luna the younger are the same person, and the current Luna also has memories from that time.

She and Dolly simply chose to forget about it.

But how easy is it to really forget?

The two of them could only pretend they had forgotten.

"Okay, seriously, I want to have some influence in the magical world."

"Dumbledore goes without saying, but if I had the influence of Lucius, I wouldn't be confined to my quarters like this now."

“Luna, I really want to travel with my sisters and visit your home, instead of being stuck here and unable to do anything.”

Dolly leaned lazily against the sofa, hugging Luna's waist. Hugging the soft, sweet little Luna was Dolly's greatest comfort right now.

“I understand, I will discuss this with my father.”

"But Dolly, what are you planning to publish? A newspaper like the Daily Prophet?"

Dolly did not answer immediately upon hearing this.

This question is actually not easy to answer.

After all, the magical world is too small; a single Daily Prophet already covers almost everything, big or small, including politics, entertainment, and even gossip and advertisements.

Trying to compete with the Daily Prophet for audiences is undoubtedly a very difficult task.

However, it's not like we're completely without any ideas.

What is something that the Daily Prophet, or the magical world, could not possibly have?

The answer is actually very simple.

That's everything in the real world.

Whether it's knowledge or technology, music or literature, they are all inexhaustible treasures.

From this perspective, Dolly even felt like she was the time-traveling protagonist of a plagiarized novel.
