Hogwarts: A little lion in the skin of the Eagle School

[Dumbledore and Potter cleared of wrongdoing! Minister of Magic may resign!]

The Dark Lord, whose name cannot be mentioned, has truly returned!

The Ministry of Magic has been invaded by Death Eaters! London and its western suburbs have suffered varying degrees of damage!

The Ministry of Magic has been severely infiltrated by Death Eaters, and a special Auror task force has been established to conduct a comprehensive screening!

The following morning, the newly published Daily Prophet's front page was bursting open with large, gold-embossed characters.

Rumors of Voldemort's resurrection spread throughout the wizarding world.

No one questioned Harry and Dumbledore's earlier warnings anymore.

Some people even wrote sincere letters to Harry to apologize.

Their reputations were restored instantly, even surpassing their previous ones.

At the same time, John's reputation soared once again.

The great battle that took place at the Ministry of Magic yesterday was witnessed by countless people within the Ministry.

Everyone knows the famous scene where John single-handedly defeated all the Death Eaters.

Of course, none of this matters.

Importantly, the Ministry of Magic has finally begun to take the issue of the Rolling Moles seriously.

In particular, yesterday's premeditated invasion proves that the Ministry of Magic has been severely infiltrated.

The timing of the Death Eaters' arrival and the closure of the Ministry of Magic's passage were all meticulously planned.

Furthermore, the identities of the Death Eaters killed by John yesterday have also been confirmed.

They are all members of pure-blood families.

This included Lucius Malfoy, though he didn't die.

He was unable to participate in the final battle with John yesterday because he was in a coma.

Although they weren't injured, they were left aside.

Voldemort didn't even notice him when he retreated.

So when he woke up, he was delighted to find a pair of silver handcuffs.

......

"The door key?"

"You've barely learned Apparition, and you already want to learn Portkey?"

Principal's Office.

John arrived at Dumbledore early in the morning and expressed his desire to learn how to use the Portkey.

"Hey, Principal, could you think of making a few trigger-type door keys?"

"Send it to a specific person, and when that person is in danger, it will trigger a 'click' and then the person can be safely sent away."

"A life-saving artifact!"

John sat across from Dumbledore's desk and began to vividly describe his ideas.

But after a moment of contemplation, Dumbledore said calmly.

"Like Apparition, Portkeys are regulated by the Ministry of Magic."

"Unauthorized manufacture and use are illegal if discovered."

John: "..."

I almost fainted.

No, why does the Ministry of Magic have to oversee everything?

"After all, it's a teleportation spell that's even more powerful than Apparition."

"This rule applies not only to the Ministry of Magic, but all over the world."

Dumbledore explained slowly.

Seemingly sensing John's disappointment, Dumbledore shook his head, smiled, and continued speaking.

"However... if you're just making two for your parents to save their lives, then it's fine."

"Huh? Really?"

Upon hearing this, John immediately looked up and asked in surprise.

Dumbledore immediately guessed why John wanted to make the Portkey.

After all, his parents had just been attacked by Death Eaters.

"That's right, door keys aren't as easy to monitor as Apparition."

"Most disposable door keys turn back into ordinary objects after they are used up."

"The Ministry of Magic doesn't even know how to investigate, especially if the person using the Portkey is a Muggle, then there's no way to find out."

"So, if you want to make a door key that allows your parents to escape in a critical moment, that's fine."

Dumbledore spoke slowly, and then took out a teapot from somewhere.

"Look, when Arthur was attacked last time, I used this teapot to send Harry and the Weasley children back to the Order of the Phoenix."

That's pretty casual, huh...

"The creation of the door key requires a spell pronounced 'Mentos'."

"At the same time, you need to anchor this spell to a spatial coordinate, similar to the coordinates in your mind when you apparite."

"Finally, we need to define a triggering method and a limit on the number of times it can be used."

"Timed trigger, grip trigger, or activation trigger."

"Then, is it a one-way ticket, a round-trip ticket, or a route ticket?"

As Dumbledore spoke, he demonstrated to John by rubbing a door key by hand.

The teapot emitted bursts of blue light in his hand and swayed slightly.

With a final buzzing vibration, the rating was restored.

"Come on, let's go for a walk."

Dumbledore gripped the handle of the teapot, and John curiously reached out to grab it as well.

The moment they made contact, a powerful suction force pulled them directly into the space.

With a dizzying sensation, John and Dumbledore appeared simultaneously in the valley where they had previously sparred.

However, the two were thrown out, and Dumbledore landed steadily without even his robes being lifted.

John, on the other hand, fell flat on his face.

The teapot also fell to the ground not far away.

"The key I just set up is to be triggered when two people grasp it."

"A round-trip ticket. Now, as long as we grasp this teapot again, we can return to where we started."

With that, Dumbledore beckoned, and the teapot flew back into his hand. He then waved it at John, signaling him to come and grab it again.

John scrambled to his feet and grabbed the teapot again.

And then, with another whoosh, it went off.

After a dizzying spin, John was thrown out again, landing in Dumbledore's office.

"Ugh... I don't think my dad's old back can take this kind of fall..."

John simply lay down on the ground and refused to get up, directly complaining.

"That's better than encountering real danger," Dumbledore said.

"...That's true."

John rubbed his tailbone as he sat up and returned to his desk.

Dumbledore put the teapot away and then spoke slowly.

"Since you happen to be free right now, why don't you come and learn from me this weekend?"

John nodded, but then asked curiously.

"Okay, but why do you have time during this period?"

"With Voldemort's affair exposed, shouldn't he be even busier?"

Dumbledore smiled.

"The Ministry of Magic should be busy. They will be undergoing a major purge during this period to weed out staff who may have been infiltrated."

"Voldemort also lost some of his hard-earned troops in this operation."

"Moreover, the Order of the Phoenix's work has received support from all sectors of society, unlike before when it was obstructed by the Ministry of Magic."

"So, on our side, we can finally catch our breath."

As he spoke, Dumbledore raised his hand and rubbed his temples again.

"But I still need to explain the prophecy orb to Harry later; it's about time I told him more."

"You should have told him a long time ago. I just don't understand why you kept it from him when you had nothing better to do."

John, on the other hand, directly complained.

As a key figure in the fight against Voldemort, how could we not give him information?

"Sigh, you'll understand later..."
