Hogwarts: Why do you call me the Demon King?

Not to mention, through Harry's connection, Hermione's network can also reach Isaac of Hufflepuff.

Although I'm reluctant to admit it, the number one student on the list of those you absolutely cannot mess with at Hogwarts is Isaac Waldorley.

There is no evidence to prove that Isaac is Dumbledore's son, but there is also no evidence to prove that he is not Dumbledore's son.

The students of Hogwarts are not villagers of Konoha Village. Even though I know you are the village chief's son/daughter, I still want to bully you.

These young wizards practicing spells are far more astute than the villagers of Konoha.

After exchanging a few words with Ron, Harry couldn't wait to ask, "Sir, weren't you on vacation at home?"

Why are you back so early?

"Well, I was planning to go home for Christmas, but it's a bit lonely with only the old housekeeper at home."

But I heard that something happened in Diagon Alley and Gringotts. Professor Venda wrote to me that the wizarding world will be in turmoil for some time to come.

So I came back.

"Something happened at Gringotts?" Ron asked in surprise, then looked at Harry with concern.

He, and the entire Weasley family, never need to use Gringotts' vault for their savings.

Their only connection to Gringotts is that the Weasleys have a son who works as a curse-breaker for Gringotts.

Ron's family doesn't need Gringotts' vault, but Harry's family does.

Ron is worried about his brother's savings this time.

Chapter 120 Percy's Change

"Gringotts...with such tight defenses, there shouldn't be any problems, right?" Harry was starting to panic a little.

He has truly experienced hardship.

Unlike the Weasleys' impoverished life, Ron at least had both parents and several older brothers and a younger sister, even though the Weasleys were spendthrifts.

To put it simply, like Hermione, there are only two possible parents among these three right now.

Harry's hard life was one of living under someone else's roof and not daring to leave.

That's why Harry can better understand the predicament of being broke.

"Gringotts isn't that heavily guarded, Harry. You should know that in the wizarding world, the one with the bigger fist always has the final say."

A powerful wizard could easily break into Gringotts; the place was practically undefended.

"Then why???" Harry asked, puzzled. If Gringotts was so easy to rob, why hadn't anyone been interested in it for so long?

"Because it's too easy for a powerful wizard to get Gallon flowers, the most obvious example being Professor Snape."

Ron should know best the value of those potions he casually brewed, right?

Ron nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

Having witnessed Isaac's communications with the manager of the potions shop several times, Ron truly understood just how powerful Snape was.

The magic potions that people casually brew can be easily converted into cash.

Moreover, it's a highly valuable monetization opportunity.

This has made Ron pay close attention in Potions class and take notes, afraid of missing any "get-rich-quick" tips.

Ron's behavior in Potions class was so different from his usual self that Hermione wondered if he had taken some wrong potion.

Or perhaps Professor Snape cast some kind of spell on them, forcing them to focus on studying.

If Harry hadn't stopped her, Hermione would have run to the Potions Professor's office to find Snape.

It's not that I'm speaking up for Ron, but I hope Professor Snape can do it to her too.

Hermione considered this thing a definite positive buff.

Ron's behavior shows that when people are desperate, if they know that eating excrement can make money, there will be plenty of people who will actually do it.

“Powerful wizards in other fields are similar, so there’s no need for a wizard who is too powerful to risk their reputation and honor for a lifetime by robbing a bank.”

The weak wizard didn't have that ability.

Isaac reassured Harry, indicating that he didn't need to worry.

The Lestrange family's vault was originally quite a distance from the Potter family's vault.

"By the way, you haven't told me yet, what's going on with Hermione? She's not even coming to the restaurant for Christmas?"

Are you studying so intensely that you forget to eat and sleep?

"Actually, it's like this." Harry and Ron exchanged a glance, and then the two of them, who were originally trying to pull Isaac to a corner of the castle, started to move.

Finally, on Isaac's advice, they went to the Black Lake.

Since we're going to whisper, we can't go to some secluded corner.

These are all based on real-life experiences.

You're whispering in some nook or cranny of the castle, and who knows if someone is overhearing you from behind a wall or around some corner.

If you stand openly and talk by the Black Lake like this, you'll be noticed immediately if anyone gets too close.

Learn from this clever trick; you'll have to fall into so many pitfalls before you can figure it out.

By the Black Lake, Harry and Ron recounted to Isaac his experiences planning the Gringotts heist at Hogwarts...

Strictly speaking, it is a shared secret circulating among Gryffindors.

When school started, the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor that Dumbledore had specifically emphasized "do not approach if you do not wish to suffer an accident or die a painful death" had already been explored by the "brave" Gryffindor students.

As it turns out, simply going down the right-hand corridor won't lead to any accidents or tragic deaths.

Gryffindor students are always adept at courting death.

Their passion for exploration was completely ignited when they discovered that simply exploring wouldn't kill them.

One by one, they transformed into young Gryffindors and began to explore the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor in turn.

Soon, they made a discovery.

At the end of the corridor is a locked secret room.

At first, the Gryffindor students planned to use a lock-picking spell on the lock, but the ordinary lock-picking spells did not work on the door.

Later, they tried several other methods, but none of them could open the door to the secret room.

Some older students suggested that they blow the door open by tearing it apart or by creating a thunderous explosion.

As soon as he finished speaking, the student who made the suggestion was looked at like a monster by his classmates.

What was supposed to be a family-friendly adventure turned into a series of confrontations between you and Professor McGonagall and Headmaster Dumbledore.

Tell me, are you a Slytherin spy?

You must have taken a bribe from Slytherin!

Gryffindors may be reckless, but they're not stupid.

When faced with dire circumstances, they are indeed capable of anything, but in normal times, Professor McGonagall still exerts considerable restraint on their "bloodline."

Thus, the exploration operation reached a stalemate.

Then Percy, yes, it was Percy who gave his advice.

After Isaac pointed it out, Percy realized that the so-called prefects really didn't have much power at Hogwarts.

It's not worth ruining your reputation at school just because of a class monitor.

Percy had been looking for an opportunity to mend his relationship with his classmates.

Fortunately, with Percy's two twin brothers, the Gryffindor students didn't really take Percy's behavior to heart.

In their view, Percy was just trying to have some fun after becoming a prefect.

They all understand.

Getting back to the main point, Percy has been borrowing documents and books related to the Ministry of Magic during this time.

The incident at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris in 1927 left a particularly deep impression on him.

The world's most dangerous wizard, Grindelwald, ignited the Fiendfire there. Ultimately, led by the English Aurors and with the cooperation of the French Aurors, the Fiendfire was finally extinguished, a fire that was capable of engulfing all of Paris and even France.

(This document was compiled and edited by the British Ministry of Magic)

The Aurors joined forces to unleash a powerful "End of All Curses," which finally stopped the fully formed Fiendfire.

As we all know, the spell for ending all curses is the same as the spell for stopping curses. In other words, since multiple people can cast the spell together to enhance its power.

What about the unlocking spell?

As Gryffindors, they only need a little bit of seemingly reasonable theoretical support to skip the verification process and jump straight to the experimental stage.

So several senior wizards worked together to use a lock-picking spell on the locked door.

The door lock opened successfully the next second, and they gained access to the secret room.

Less than thirty seconds later, the group of senior wizards who had entered the secret chamber came running out of it in a panic.

After these people came out, they kept muttering one word.
