Harry Potter, the savior of Night City

"Are you all sure you can transfer schools?" Harry asked, standing there and looking at the dozens of hands raised high.

The students who had raised their hands stepped out of the crowd, and unsurprisingly, most of them were Slytherin, led by Malfoy and Theodore.

“You know my father is fully supportive,” Malfoy said. “Theodore’s family doesn’t interfere much, so Theodore has even more freedom than I do when it comes to transferring schools.”

Theodore nodded. "After I gave my transfer contract to my father, he signed it without even looking at it, which saved me a lot of trouble."

Behind the two, Ella VanCourt, Goyle, Crabbe... all clearly stated that they could transfer schools. Ella went to follow Theodore, while Goyle and Crabbe did so purely because their families were practically affiliated with the Malfoys. Knowing that the Malfoys fully supported Harry, they also allowed their children to transfer.

In the end, all things considered, thirty-three people were able to go to Azkaban with Harry. It wasn't a lot, but it was a good start. It's worth mentioning that Hermione's expression was a bit strange. She was also able to go; she even got her parents to sign the transfer contract using a Confusion Charm (she burned the Ministry of Magic's warning letter). But frankly speaking, at the Hogwarts outpost, she was the only one who could perfectly combine alchemy and potion-making. With her gone, the potion supply at the Hogwarts outpost would become much more difficult.

Harry saw this and told Hermione to stay put at Hogwarts. Both Hogwarts and Azkaban were equally important, and the Church could not do without either.

"Everyone, another war is about to break out in the wizarding world," Harry said to all the members of the Holy Order after having those who could transfer stand behind him. "This war will be initiated by the Holy Order."

Those two short sentences nearly left everyone speechless, but Harry didn't leave them stunned for long before explaining, "First, I have some good news for you: Voldemort has been captured, and captured alive! He's in the Headmaster's office right now, and the darkness in the wizarding world will be completely wiped away!"

Harry's words struck like a hammer blow, leaving everyone stunned. Harry, however, remained calm. Just as they were about to cheer after processing the news, he gestured for them to stop.

"But then comes the bad news." With that, Harry drew his wand, pointed it at his temple, extracted a memory from his mind, and put it into the communication coin he took out of his pocket. Then, Fudge's speech in the headmaster's office was transmitted word by word.

"That fool Fudge, for the sake of his position, would rather let the entire wizarding world remain shrouded in darkness than reveal this truth. He even considered letting Voldemort go to confuse the public and consolidate his own power!"

Harry knew Fudge wanted to silence him, but to incite the young man before him, he continued with the most serious point: "The wizarding world belongs to all of us, not just to that idiot Fudge. What we want is a peaceful life, the safety and happiness of our families. And what about Fudge? Just for that position, just for his title of Minister of Magic, he was even willing to let Voldemort go, leaving our families and friends to live in constant fear! Does he deserve to be Minister of Magic?!"

"Unworthy!!" the crowd shouted.

"No one, no one would want their family to be under threat of death just by going out to buy groceries! Not me, not you, not even the millions of people in the magical world. Fugui was wrong, he was terribly wrong!"

Looking at the crowd before him, whose emotions were clearly stirred, Harry declared in one breath, "Therefore, our Holy Church will overthrow that guy, remove him from the minister's chair, even if the Holy Church is destroyed as a result, even if I die because of it, but even so, I will pull him down from that position. Not for any other reason than that I just want everyone's families, and I want our world to stop being in danger because of this idiot!"

Having said that, Harry looked at everyone and said, "Now, those who want to leave can go out that way. I won't blame you, and neither will the Holy Church. You're doing this for your lives, that's true. Life is more precious than glory, understand?"

Everyone watched Harry. Even though their emotions had been stirred, some still withdrew, though only three people did. Harry was satisfied with this result and then walked towards the crowd.

"Fred Weasley, George Weasley"

"We're here." "What do you need us to do?" the two replied.

"These are yours," Harry said, taking out a bag containing a thousand Galleons from his spatial storage and handing it to them. "Don't rush to refuse. Next, I'm giving you a task: to research more items that can enhance the strength of the Crusaders and reduce and kill the enemy. This money is your research funding."

The words of refusal stuck in their throats, and the two exchanged a smile.

"We guarantee the mission will be completed."

Harry nodded and looked at Hermione and Ron.

"Hermione, your task is to brew more potions; Ron, you and Neville will take the Hogwarts Combat Department to the Forbidden Forest to hunt animals to obtain more potion ingredients for Hermione's Potions Department. But remember, don't kill them all, and don't touch the cubs. The Forbidden Forest will be ours sooner or later, and it's not good to destroy the environment too much."

......

After assigning tasks at Hogwarts, Harry stood before everyone again. "Gentlemen, the Holy See of Azkaban, which is us, is the first line of defense against the Ministry of Magic. We will take the initiative to attack, and you are responsible for guarding Hogwarts. If any of the Ministry's cronies come to Hogwarts for help, kill them without mercy. I believe you all possess at least one lethal spell besides the Avada Kedavra Curse, or you've experienced it yourself—guns are more effective than low-level spells. By the way, unless in extreme circumstances, do not use the Avada Kedavra Curse; it's bad for the soul."

"What if the professor were to help them?" someone asked.

"Then arrest the professor. I believe you can do it, but the chances are slim. I've already paid the price. Now, Dumbledore is on our side."

The light in everyone's eyes grew brighter, not only because they had unwavering faith in the outcome, but also because they admired and worshipped Harry.

"Alright, dismissed. Those of you who want to transfer schools, you have one hour to pack your bags. I'll be waiting for you on the biggest boat on Black Lake."

After saying that, Harry turned and walked out of the basement, calling Mann and the others through his personal channel.

......

On the high seas, at Hogwarts—no, now Azkaban—the new students gazed out at the ocean from the deck, imagining their new lives. Harry sat in the captain's cabin, facing Voldemort, whose eyes were already lifeless, and Snape, who stood beside him, glaring menacingly at Voldemort. Grindelwald hadn't come along; he said he would stay at Hogwarts a little longer. Although Dumbledore seemed reluctant, Harry sensed that the old man was playing hard to get, so he didn't pay much attention. While the new Azkaban students were packing their luggage, Harry borrowed Snape's fireplace to go to Gringotts and get some money.

As for Snape, Harry initially went to Dumbledore to borrow him for a while. Dumbledore told him to go and discuss it with Snape himself. Snape was initially reluctant, but after seeing Voldemort captured alive by Harry, and considering Harry's promise that "as long as he doesn't die," he still came along.

"Look! A fire dragon!"

A student pointed to the sky and exclaimed. Harry walked out of the captain's cabin, leaving Snape and Voldemort, who was bound tightly, weak, and unable to use any magic, alone in the room. In the sky, a semi-mechanized fire dragon soared, its wings spewing flames. Harry saw it immediately, took out his wand, cast a booming spell on his throat, and shouted towards the sky:

"Solacos!"

In the sky, Solax heard a familiar voice, immediately swooped down, and then slowly landed on the ship.

"Master!" He was as happy as a big dog, rubbing against Harry. The other students also gathered around, looking at the dragon with curiosity and surprise. Malfoy even wanted to touch it, because this dragon was unlike any he had ever seen before. His prosthetic body almost completely covered the dragon's markings.

Harry looked at Thorax, whose wings had been replaced with prosthetics. The prosthetic wings Ohm had fitted didn't look like those of a flapping-winged creature at all; they looked more like two rocket engines. The festering parts of his skin had also been replaced with adamantite and orogen, and even a large steel cannon had been installed.

After Harry granted Solax's request to board the boat, he looked at the students with longing in their eyes and nodded in agreement to their request to go up and touch the boat.

Time passed quickly at sea, and the ship arrived in Azkaban before nightfall.

As everyone disembarked, Snape carried Voldemort, who appeared unharmed but had a lifeless look in his eyes, into Azkaban, completely ignoring the drastically altered appearance. The new students, led by Maine and the others, and those Harry had brought, headed into the school. Harry was the last to emerge, and as soon as he stepped onto the ground, he saw an unexpected guest.

"Mr. Lucius, what are you doing here?" Harry looked towards the shore, where Lucius Malfoy was standing, with several carriages behind him carrying huge cages. What was inside the cages was self-evident.

"Draco sent me a letter saying you were going back today, so I've come to keep my promise." Lucius smiled as he stepped forward, took off his gloves, and shook hands with Harry.

"Thank you for keeping your word." Harry shook Lucius's hand in return. "Let's go inside and talk. My subordinates will handle the dragon. I have a new plan, and it's going to be a big one. I'd like to discuss it with you."

"Then I would be very honored."

With that, the two walked into the academy.
