After the Quidditch match, Harry Potter's fame among the students soared.
To them, Harry Potter is a living legend. Once hailed as the boy who survived, he now shines brightly at Hogwarts. They are witnessing the continuation of the legend, which is incredibly exciting for them.
Some people speculated that Harry Potter might have done something extraordinary, which was why Headmaster Dumbledore had to meet him with such high regard.
After all, Harry Potter's legendary stories used to circulate every now and then, but he's been quiet for so long recently, so they definitely wouldn't believe it if you said he hadn't done anything.
Meanwhile, Hermione and Rose, who were in the audience, naturally noticed Harry Potter as well.
"My God, are the headmasters making such a big fuss just to see Harry?"
Ross's mouth dropped open. Although Harry had already surprised him a great deal, he still found it hard to believe that even a big shot like the headmaster would treat Harry like this.
"I was wondering why he'd been leaving early and coming home late lately; turns out he'd been working on something big."
Hermione appeared much calmer, as if she had resolved a question, but the gleam in her eyes still betrayed the turmoil in her heart.
Harry Potter then appeared before the headmaster under such intense public scrutiny.
"Mr. Potter, you've finally arrived." Dumbledore's face showed a smile and a touch of respect.
To him, Harry Potter was that person's disciple, and it was only right to express respect.
But to others, it was no less than a bombshell.
"The headmaster actually treated Harry like this!"
"Sure enough, Harry must have done something earth-shattering, otherwise the headmaster's attitude wouldn't have changed so much."
"What could have happened to provoke the principal to act in this way?"
"Haha, did you take care of that guy? Hmm, I'm just kidding."
"Don't be surprised, if they announce this later, I might actually believe it."
The students' discussion erupted, and the professors naturally looked at each other in bewilderment.
They had no idea why the headmaster had summoned them there, nor why he treated Harry in this way.
Professor Quirrell, timid and unpopular, stood timidly in the crowd, completely inconspicuous.
"quiet."
Dumbledore spoke, his voice not loud, but it seemed to carry a magical power, and everyone fell silent wherever he went.
"I imagine everyone is quite curious about why we've gathered you all here. Mr. Potter will now explain it to you."
Dumbledore's pronouncements immediately piqued everyone's interest. Previous speculations were just that—speculations. But now that Dumbledore had personally confirmed it, it was a completely different matter.
This made them all eagerly anticipate what Harry Potter was about to say.
Dumbledore smiled and said to Harry Potter, "Well then, the rest is up to you."
"Don't worry, this time, it will definitely be a day that everyone will remember."
Harry Potter nodded, stepped forward, and positioned himself in the very center of the Quidditch pitch, the spot where everyone's eyes were on him.
Everyone looked on with anticipation, waiting for Harry Potter to speak next.
At this moment, Dumbledore, who was standing in the audience, looked towards Professor Sprout.
Professor Sprout nodded at him.
At Lin Yu's reminder, although they didn't know who Voldemort had hidden himself in, they naturally had to do a good job of security when they heard that Harry Potter was going to deal with Voldemort and that the whole school needed to be present.
They were naturally not worried about Harry Potter's safety. After all, Harry Potter's intense training during this period had given them a certain understanding of his strength. In addition, Harry Potter had Lin Yu's protection, so their purpose was simply to protect innocent people.
With so many students gathered here now, whose abilities are far from comparable to Harry Potter's, security is a must.
They also had to wait until Voldemort appeared before they could activate the spell, otherwise Voldemort would be under the protection spell and they might miss this opportunity.
Seeing Professor Sprout nod, Dumbledore felt relieved. However, what they didn't realize was that their little actions were all seen by Professor Quirrell, who was standing in the corner among the professors.
Professor Quirrell's usually lifeless eyes were now even more desolate, devoid of any light.
Meanwhile, Harry Potter, standing in the center, had already spoken:
"Actually, it was I who asked Headmaster Dumbledore to gather you all here today. You must be wondering why I have gathered you all here today."
Harry Potter's voice was slow and steady, yet it was like a cat's claws scratching at your heart, making you feel restless and itchy.
"Before that, I want to tell a story, a story that may be different from what you all know."
"More than ten years ago, there was a boy who experienced a tragedy at birth. His parents died, and he had to live with his aunt and uncle. However, this family did not treat the boy very well. They made him live in a cramped stairwell, and they would beat and scold him if he did anything that did not meet his aunt and uncle's expectations. His aunt and uncle's children would also bully him. He would always hide in the stairwell and secretly feel sad, thinking that this was probably how his life would be from now on."
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a look of pity.
Even adults would find this experience unbearable, let alone a child. Some people familiar with Harry Potter have begun to understand that this must be Harry Potter's own real experience.
Suddenly, some people had even greater respect for Harry Potter, who could still shine so brightly in such an environment.
"Of course, life is always changing. One day, in a narrow stairwell, the boy met someone who would change his life. That person promised to help the boy change his current life and became his master. Then he began to guide the boy in his studies and cultivation, and told him all kinds of life principles."
"These things completely changed the boy's previously monotonous and gloomy life. He became confident, strong, and powerful."
"He thought life would continue like this until one day during the summer vacation after graduating from elementary school, he received an admission letter from Hogwarts. He then learned that he was burdened with the hatred of his parents' deaths, so he decided to come to Hogwarts to study and find an opportunity to avenge his parents. Everyone has heard about what happened after that, so I won't go into details."
At that moment, everyone realized that Harry Potter was talking about themselves.
This made them extremely curious about the master Harry Potter mentioned.
They all wanted to know who exactly had raised Harry Potter to be such a brilliant person.
At that moment, Harry Potter smiled slightly and said proudly:
"I'm sure everyone is very curious about my master, but I could talk about his greatness for thirty minutes straight, so I'll leave that for when I get to the point."
"And my real business is, of course, the opportunity I mentioned earlier to become a parent. I've found it now, and the person is..."
Everyone listened intently to Harry Potter's words. Everyone here knew who Harry Potter was referring to as his target for revenge, but they all knew that the person had disappeared for a long time and had now reappeared.
They now sense that a bloody storm is about to break out.
Some were excited, Voldemort was infamous, and they all hoped Harry Potter would succeed in his revenge; others were worried, Voldemort was notorious, and although Harry Potter was powerful, he was too young, and they feared that Harry Potter was too reckless and would be defeated by Voldemort.
Wise people, however, sense the impending danger.
Logically speaking, if the goal is to deal with Voldemort, it shouldn't be done in such a grand manner. However, the school not only doesn't try to hide it but even summons them to announce it, which means that the school has actually already begun to take action.
And the people who are the opponents are naturally among these people!
"Ross, stay alert and protect yourself!"
Hermione lowered her voice, glancing around with suspicion, as if afraid that someone nearby might suddenly attack.
"What did you say? It's a bit noisy, I didn't hear you clearly."
Ross asked stupidly, since he had been so excited by Harry Potter's speech that he had been calling Harry's name for a while and hadn't heard Hermione's words.
Hermione was speechless at her somewhat silly teammate, but out of the corner of her eye she noticed that among the bewildered professors, one person suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Phantom Teleportation Spell!
Hermione was horrified and immediately stood up, wanting to shout at the boy in the very center of the Quidditch pitch, but it was clearly too late.
A figure appeared above Harry Potter's head, the spell in his hand emitting a dark light.
Avada Kedavra.
It's too late, but it's soon.
The series of events occurred in the same amount of time it took Harry Potter to reveal the answer in just a few words.
“…Professor Quirrell.”
As soon as Harry Potter finished speaking, a dark light, like a leech, descended upon his head.
Everyone was stunned by the sudden change.
The timing of the Apparition Charm was too perfect. Everyone's attention was drawn to Harry Potter's words, and even Dumbledore was focused on the release of the protective charms around him, completely unaware of Professor Quirrell below, who was hardly noticeable at all.
By the time everyone reacted, the incredibly fast Avada Kedavra was already just centimeters away from Harry Potter, seemingly about to succeed.
In that instant, Harry Potter turned his head, looked at Professor Quirrell above him, and smiled faintly:
“Professor Quirrell… no, I should call you Voldemort, you are just as despicable as you remember.”
At this moment, his internal energy was already surging. The dark Killing Curse in front of him landed on his skin, but it could not be integrated into Harry Potter's body. In fact, it was shaken by the internal energy in Harry Potter's body and reflected back to Voldemort in his shocked eyes.
However, Voldemort was too experienced in combat and reacted extremely quickly. With a short-range Apparition, he instantly teleported to a distance of more than five meters from Harry Potter.
He looked at Harry Potter with great interest, his face transforming into a standard, hairless, lipsless, and terrifying expression, as if burned by a great fire.
"That's really interesting. What kind of magic is that?"
"Dead people don't need to know that much."
Harry Potter said calmly.
"Compared to your parents, you really don't know what manners are."
Voldemort narrowed his eyes, his wand already raised, but he did not cast any spells.
"Is that so? I usually don't talk this much to my enemies, but since you are my enemy, I'll give you a few words."
Harry Potter stared silently at his enemy.
He felt a slight pressure from the other person, but that was all.
