Hogwarts: This fairy tale is too eerie

[A fantasy entity has been discovered: The Ugly Duckling!]

[Description: A girl born full of hope suffered endless scorn and bullying after birth.]

"Why are you doing this to me?" the girl didn't know.

"If they hate my appearance, then I'll just throw it away," the girl thought to herself.

So the girl shed her unwanted skin, filled with joy, only to discover—

It turns out everyone else is just as ugly.

The swan opened its beak, which was full of sharp teeth, and from it came the sound of Harry:

I'm not a monster, and I don't want to be with you guys!!

"Bang!"

The rifle misfired, and the bullet struck the swan's body, but was immediately caught by its sharp beak and remained unharmed.

"Ah, ahh..."

The Dursleys collapsed to the ground, their faces ashen, trembling violently, completely losing their earlier arrogance.

...Hehe, I was just kidding with you~ Look, you're in a hurry again.

hiccup QAQ

Although the white swan was dazzling and "beautiful," Harry, as the real person, slumped limply.

It's like a discarded shell.

"Some of the fantasy experiences parasitize hosts similar to themselves, absorbing their souls while simultaneously corrupting and distorting them."

"She's a bit like Mo Mo Ran."

As for fantastical entities that can exist independently without relying on parasites...

Sorry, you'd better just become a parasite.jpg

【Gaaah—! ...

The swan let out a sharp cry, its mournful sound shattering the glass instantly.

"Gurgle!"

Dudley's eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

Just as the white swan's blood-red eyes greedily and viciously surveyed the room.

A deafening explosion was heard outside:

"Bang!"

"what!"

Thor raised an eyebrow and gracefully took a step back.

next second.

A group of figures rolled around and crashed into the room through the door!

It crashed right into the spot where Thor had just been standing!

"Hagrid...get out of the way!"

Professor McGonagall felt dizzy and thought her old bones were about to break.

She never expected that she would run into Hagrid, who was delivering a letter to Harry, and the Aurors, who were chasing Thor!

This is weird! Something weird starts happening as soon as you get close to Thor!

The most urgent task is to act before Thor corrupts their savior—or rather, their angel.

The goal is to take Thor to Hogwarts before he commits any serious offense!

Thinking this way, Professor McGonagall felt a little more at ease.

Ultimately, Thor is just a child. Even if he receives the Green family's unorthodox education, how dangerous can he possibly be?

Could it be that Harry could really be led astray in just one meeting?

Professor McGonagall used magic to knock Hagrid aside and throw him onto the Auror.

With the "hill" blocking her view gone, she breathed a sigh of relief, and looking up, she saw Harry Potter—

And that strange white swan that grew out of Harry Potter's back.

Its pure white feathers were covered with sharp teeth, as if the Creator had misspelled them.

Professor McGonagall: ¿

Kid, what happened to you?

Professor McGonagall's pupils dilated, and she was about to burst into a rage when a sharp pain in her chest forced her to suppress it, causing her to cough incessantly in agony.

"Are you alright?"

At that moment, a pale, slender hand reached out.

"I...I'm fine, thank you..."

Professor McGonagall instinctively grasped that hand, and instantly, an icy chill ran through her bones.

...?

She stiffly raised her head, and what came into view was a severed hand protruding from a top hat.

At the edges, a faint crimson liquid seemed to be seeping out.

"Thunderclap—Ah!"

The severed hand pulled her up in a very friendly and powerful way.

Professor McGonagall's vision blurred as she met a pair of condemning gray eyes.

"She was just trying to help you, and you treated her so rudely. Madam, you are not kind."

Saul put away his top hat, spoke in an aria-like tone, and shook his head.

Professor McGonagall: "..."

The fist hardened.

"However, I didn't expect the Hogwarts people to arrive so quickly," Thor thought to himself, completely unaware that he had angered the professor before the semester even started.

"It's probably for Harry's sake; it has nothing to do with him, this innocent and kind little wizard."

Thinking this, Thor felt relieved.

"Madam," Saul said, feigning ignorance of Professor McGonagall, "this is a bit dangerous now. You'd better stand back and enjoy the view."

Professor McGonagall: "Who's appreciating—"

【Gah!】

The swan seemed dissatisfied with being ignored and suddenly let out a sharp cry.

With a flap of its enormous wings, a sharp, jagged gust of wind swept towards them!

"Armor for protection!"

Professor McGonagall reacted quickly, pulling Thor aside and waving her wand to block the strong wind.

"Rip!"

That was the sound of Hagrid's fur coat tearing, and streaks of blood seeped from the rough, hard skin.

...Anyway, let's deal with this talkative monster first.

Professor McGonagall's gaze hardened, and she gave up thinking.

"All Stones—"

"Please wait a moment, ma'am."

A gentle voice interrupted her chanting.

Professor McGonagall looked down and met those eerie... cough, Saul Green's misty gray eyes again.

Saul turned to look at the incessantly calling swan and said softly, "Listen, ma'am, it's talking."

I'm not a monster! My parents aren't either! But they're gone, leaving me with my uncle's family...

The broken round glasses lay on the ground, wrapped in layers of transparent tape—thanks to Dali's fist.

Why am I being beaten and verbally abused?! I've had enough!!!

Professor McGonagall was stunned when she heard Harry's voice.

Everyone in the wizarding world is singing praises to Harry Potter's great achievements and celebrating his defeat of the Dark Lord.

His name appears in countless books; he is known to everyone.

But Professor McGonagall never considered what kind of life Harry actually led in the Muggle world.

"Beating and scolding? How could they beat and scold the savior of the magical world?!"

A surge of anger welled up in Professor McGonagall's heart. She glared in shock at the Dursleys in the corner and roared:

"He's Harry Potter! The son of a hero!!"

"..."

The Dursleys huddled together, too afraid to utter a sound.

Aunt Penny's eyes flickered, her thin lips trembled, but in the end she said nothing and hugged her husband and son tightly.

Saul glanced sideways at Professor McGonagall, who was panting and looking bewildered, then put his top hat back on and said gently:

"This is a parasitic fantasy. If we try to deal with it by force, it will harm the original body."

"How can the ugly duckling know whether it has swan blood until the moment of its metamorphosis?"

"Perhaps what it longs for is not a glamorous transformation of identity, but rather family and love."

"Mr. Green..."

Professor McGonagall stared blankly at the boy, who was just over ten years old.

At that moment, she suddenly felt that the other person's figure far exceeded the limitations of appearance, becoming more mature and insightful than an adult.

What kind of education did the Green family give this child...?

"Alright, ma'am."

Thor's tone lightened, and he raised his hand, staring at the swan honking wildly.

"Leave the rest to the professionals."

"Fire Demon 'Calcifer,' trap it."

Thor rubbed his fingers together and snapped them.

"Yes, sir."

Flame grinned and gave an exaggerated bow.

The next second, with a loud bang, a crimson pillar of fire shot into the sky!

The heater melted instantly, and the heat wave hit us, distorting the air and causing Professor McGonagall to take a half step back!

"Oh my god..."

Professor McGonagall's eyes widened, reflecting the crimson of the flames.

Let alone first graders, even upper grades might not be able to unleash such a high concentration of fire magic!

【Gah!】

The swan cried out wildly as flames coiled around its body, binding its struggles like a cage.

On the pure white feathers, sharp mouths opened and closed, seemingly trying to forcefully chew up and swallow the flames!

No—I want revenge! I'll make sure they never dare to bully me again!

"Harry".

Thor spoke, taking off his right glove, revealing a small, dark mark on his fingertip.

Don't let anger consume you.

"After tonight, you will find your true home, your true 'home,' and make friends with people who share your ideals."

"You will have true friends."

Saul raised his hand, not even glancing at the Dursleys who seemed about to say anything, and black marks spread from his fingertips.

As fine as spider silk, it passed through the flames and wrapped around the swan's neck, as if it were bound by the strongest chain, causing it to freeze in place.

The library owner's authority pressed in, forcing the swan to lower its proud head!

【Gah, gah...!】

Through its blood-red eyes, Thor saw the small, huddled figure hidden deep within.

With his palm facing upwards, as if inviting, he said in a gentle voice:

"Come on, Harry Potter."

"You are a member of the magical world."

Same as me.
