The mastermind behind Hogwarts

Two weeks have passed since Merlin's death and the fall of the gods. During this time, the pain of war has faded at a miraculous speed, and peace has returned.

Two weeks later, in the third week of June.

The last school-wide banquet of the 1994-1995 Hogwarts school year is approaching, and the Hogwarts Express will take the students back to London tomorrow.

As usual, the Hogwarts teachers and students entered the Great Hall and were surprised to find that there were more than four long tables. The tables that could not be accommodated in the Great Hall were placed on the lawn outside the castle.

A group of house-elves are moving the castle's large wooden gate, clearly to clear the way.

Then they built a platform on the basis of the original gate.

In this way, there is an open lawn in front of the platform and an auditorium behind it.

"Moriarty, do you know what kind of tricks Professor Dumbledore is up to?"

The little snakes went to sit at the Slytherin table, and Lilith asked Moriarty a question.

Moriarty shook his head: "I can't guess. After all, Professor Dumbledore isn't Lockhart."

Laughter and cheers immediately filled the long table. Lockhart had performed outstandingly in several battles, and no one questioned his excellence. However, Lockhart was still unique in his antics.

To celebrate the victory in the war, the United Nations held a grand ceremony to honor the wizards for their contributions to world peace.

Lockhart pulled off a stunt: The vice-captain of the British national team, Roman, led nine players on ten new flying broomsticks (five 1994S and five HGWZ) as they flew over the United Nations headquarters in New York City—

At Lockhart's suggestion, the Muggle government dispatched ten new fighter jets (five J-8s and five Su-27s) to fly over the players!

The plane's belly almost grazed the players' hair, terrifying the unsuspecting players. Then, a race ensued between the flying broomsticks and the fighter jet, with the new broomstick HGWZ ultimately winning. After landing, Roman and other players were admitted to St. Mungo's Hospital, which significantly weakened the British team. They suffered a shock defeat to Japan in the Quidditch World Cup the following year and urgently sought help from Moriarty.

But from now on, if someone around you brags that they almost crashed into a plane while riding a flying broomstick, then congratulate them.

Therefore, the wizarding world unanimously proposed that Lockhart not host the Ministry of Magic's celebration, but that Hogwarts should host it instead, which is why so many long tables appeared at Hogwarts.

At this moment, the Great Hall was filled with Hogwarts teachers and students, all looking expectantly at the lawn.

"Moriarty, you promised me." Jericho winked at Moriarty and nodded toward Professor Snape, bringing with him the latest flying broomstick, the 1994S.

"No problem." Moriarty chuckled to himself, thinking to himself, "I'll betray you in a bit and get Professor Snape to punish you severely!"

"They're here!"

Someone in the crowd shouted.

Hundreds of horse-drawn carriages drove across the grassland, and the students' relatives disembarked, soon creating a large crowd.

Then thousands more "pop" sounds were heard, and the wizards appeared in phantom form.

Lockhart, beaming with smiles, walked with Amelie Bones, Scrimgeour, and other important figures toward the long table on the lawn.

When the head of the Enforcement Division, Burns, was about to retire, her replacement was none other than Gemma Fali, the chief lawyer of Justice Law.

The person who will succeed Scrimgeour as the leader of the Aurors is none other than Moriarty's other girlfriend, Tonks.

When Moriarty saw them, he asked Lilith, "I heard that Director Burns intended for you to succeed her after graduation. Why did you refuse? After all, you are the Chief Justice of Justice, and your professional competence is impeccable."

Lilith raised an eyebrow and smiled charmingly: "Of course it's for getting pregnant. I don't want to fall too far behind Ishcher, Zhang Tianxue, and Narcissa."

Moriarty cast a suggestive glance at Lilith's lower abdomen. He already had three women who had gotten pregnant, and all of them had done so just before the great battle. He hadn't expected that one of them would be pregnant.

"Whoosh~"

A gust of air appeared, and a group of beautiful women descended from the sky.

They were Moriarty's relatives, all beautiful women, not a single man among them.

The crowd erupted in cheers. They had performed exceptionally well in the final battle of the gods, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they had saved the world.

Diana, Ishicher, Zhang Tianxue, Narcissa, Queen Ventura, Victoria, Fleur, Polly… all smiled at Moriarty and then sat down.

Three minutes later, everyone was seated.

Hagrid and Mrs. Maxime kept going back and forth, counting heads. "Only Dumbledore and Grindelwald are missing."

People immediately began to whisper among themselves: at this critical juncture, why were the two principals absent?

"They didn't elope, did they?" Jericho muttered.

"What are you thinking about? They're here!" Moriarty looked up at the sky.

People then looked up.

A giant phoenix flew over, carrying Dumbledore and Grindelwald!

Flying above the platform, Dumbledore and Grindelwald jumped hand in hand from the phoenix's back, causing a gasp, but the two landed safely.

They were dressed in their finest attire; Grindelwald looked solemn, while Dumbledore wore a smile.

Moriarty suddenly had a thought: Could they have mistaken this grand event for a wedding?

If so, Moriarty blesses them.

"Ladies and gentlemen, and I prefer to call you heroes! My heroes—" Dumbledore spoke, "Welcome to Hogwarts!"

A round of applause!

"I really don't know where to begin," Dumbledore said with a slight smile and a shake of his head. "So much has happened, hasn't it? The experiences of the first half of our lives combined don't even come close to the excitement and adventure of these last six years!"

People gave Moriarty a good-natured laugh, because ever since Moriarty enrolled, something big seemed to happen every year.

"But thankfully, it was a close call," Dumbledore raised his voice. "If I had to choose between comfort and adventure, I would resolutely choose adventure! Because I am a wizard, thank you!"

Thunderous applause!

Dumbledore's choice was also a reflection of their own feelings.

"We've learned a lot from the past, and I don't want to offer any more clichéd thanks. Instead, I just want to say, let's celebrate!"

Dumbledore raised his arm and waved it upwards, and a burst of fire appeared. He and Grindelwald simultaneously regained their youthful appearance and physique.

"Wow," Lilith said, "you didn't withdraw your fire elemental power?"

"Of course not," Moriarty said with a smile as he watched the two headmasters begin to dance. "I have become a god, and elemental magic will be passed down with me forever, and anyone can learn it."

"Professor Polly is studying; she plans to offer a course on elemental magic in three years."

"No way," Lilith leaned against Moriarty, "I want to be your Snake Queen."

The two embraced, and the next second Moriarty was surrounded by girls—all his women had come running over!

The party has begun!

Jericho, leading a swarm of snakes, ran towards Professor Snape, hoisting him onto their shoulders with flying broomsticks—"Where's Moriarty?! He betrayed me!?"

But this time, Jericho succeeded. Professor Snape rode his flying broomstick—perhaps he was prepared—and after a successful flight, he landed and scoffed at his dumbfounded students, "I told you, don't challenge me with something so simple!"

The revelry lasted for five hours.

From dusk until dawn.

We've had enough fun and enough trouble.

Some have suggested that Moriarty fulfilled his prophecy of immortality.

The proposal was quickly met with unanimous approval.

Moriarty snapped his fingers, and eight elemental magical artifacts—the Ice Moon Necklace, the Fire Mirror, the Wind Conch, the Serpentwood Wand, the Dragon Horn Earrings, the Heart of Darkness, and two matching rings—appeared in the air.

"Do you want me to fulfill the prophecy?"

He nodded repeatedly.

Moriarty smiled slightly: "Very well, as you wish. If immortality truly exists, I will bestow this divine power upon one of us!"

People were breathing heavily; if it were possible, who wouldn't want to live forever?

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Moriarty placed the eight elemental magic relics into a transparent sphere of light, which immediately emitted a dazzling seven-colored divine light.

"Detection has shown that the host has collected all elemental magic relics, fulfilling the prophecy of immortality and receiving the blessing of eternal life!"

"Congratulations, host, on completing the ultimate mission and achieving the status of a supreme deity! The HP multiverse is now open! You can freely travel between HP worlds."

Does that mean I can start more adventures?

Moriarty smiled, and the seven-colored divine light flew into his body, allowing him to feel the blessing of eternal life. Moriarty did not use it on himself!

"Continuing from where I left off," Moriarty gazed deeply at the world before soaring high into the air, "I will bestow the blessing of eternal life upon Hogwarts!"

"If your life has no magic and no Hogwarts, then from now on you will!"

"If your life has no adventures, then from now on it will!"

"If your destiny holds no surprises, then from now on it will!"

"Because Hogwarts will never end!"

Seven-colored divine light descended from the sky and landed on Hogwarts.

"Hogwarts, the stage never ends!"

The cheers seemed to penetrate the world and reach into reality.

And at high altitudes.

Lilith suddenly appeared beside Moriarty, looking at him and asking, "Aren't you going to leave without saying goodbye?"

"No, I will leave, but not now," Moriarty said, pulling Lilith into his arms. "If I were to leave, it would be with my beloved. Right now, I'm just going to another world to pick up my other beloved ones."

Lilith's face immediately darkened: "You tricked me again!"

Moriarty quickly returned, bringing back the Black sisters and their daughter from the other world, and they went back to Hogwarts to continue their studies.

Although Moriarty no longer needed to attend school, completing seven years at Hogwarts and graduating was something Moriarty had always dreamed of.

1995 years.

Moriarty, Lilith, Penelope, Fleur, Jericho, and others moved up to seventh grade.

Professors Dumbledore and Grindelwald have retired.

Professor McGonagall became the headmaster of Hogwarts, and William became the headmaster of Durmstrang.

Charlie succeeds Professor McGonagall as Professor of Transfiguration and Head of Gryffindor; Professor Snape is reassigned as Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts; and Leon becomes Professor of Potions and Head of Slytherin.

Marcus became the professor of magical creatures, and Tom, in ghost form, replaced Professor Binns as the professor of history.

Barrow the Blood Man and Lady Gray disappeared, and people said they were at peace.

Hogwarts has been completely transformed, and everything is moving in a better direction.

However, Moriarty's wish to get through his final school year peacefully was not fulfilled!

Lockhart's antics led to the British team's crushing defeat to Japan in the 1995 Quidditch World Cup.

The World Cup was originally scheduled to be held in 1994, but due to the outbreak of the Battle of London that year and the threat posed by the Immortal Organization to the world, it was postponed to 1995.

The British team still has one more chance in the repechage, and Lockhart asked Moriarty for help. Moriarty decisively sent Jericho!

Jericho: "Moriati's really something! He wouldn't take the championship that was practically in his grasp and just let me have it! What? You can't tell I'm being sarcastic? Go learn from Professor Snape!"

Jericho, wielding the HGWZ flying broom specially developed to commemorate Hogwarts' outstanding contributions in the War of the Gods, led his team to the World Cup, winning nine out of nine matches and taking the championship!

Moriarty and the women lay on a large bed watching Jericho on television, all smiles.

Several years later.

Hermione Granger, the Hogwarts Headmistress who was about to become Minister of Magic, heard the Sorting Hat shout during the Hogwarts orientation:

"Kassandra Worre! Slytherin!"

A blonde girl walked haughtily toward the Slytherin table.

Hermione's eyes lit up: "She looks just like Lilith! I have to mentor her properly for Moriarty's sake!"

(The End!)

Author's Closing Remarks: Actually, I've been thinking about this closing remarks for a long time, but I don't know what to write anymore. Maybe I'll figure it out as I write (^▽^)o Since you've read this far, why not take a look and review the creative process with me?

First of all, as usual, I'd like to express my gratitude: Thank you to editor Jiang Cha for approving A Hong's internal submission and giving A Hong the opportunity to create.

Then there are the lovely fans, including Jiajun, who has been giving Ah Hong advice and rewards since the very beginning. Without Jiajun, Ah Hong wouldn't have her first "Alliance Leader" title, and there wouldn't be so many female leads. You could say Jiajun is one of the most important people in this book. There's also Longtang, who chats with me from time to time; Shimazu, who silently votes; the group members; and everyone who has subscribed and supported this book—they are all Ah Hong's bread and butter! Thank you all for your continued support!

Whether you can see this or not, Ah Hong bows deeply!

After thanking Ah Hong, I recalled the Mid-Autumn Festival two years ago. At that time, the book had just started and things went smoothly at the beginning, but Ah Hong suffered from her lack of experience. Thinking about it now brings tears to my eyes. Ah Hong didn't know that 20 words were enough to get the book published, she hadn't set up the plot properly, and she wasn't familiar with the rules for recommendation and promotion.

I remember some people saying back then that this book wouldn't be finished until it was almost over—you guys just tell me if it's even finished yet!

Overall, Ah Hong wanted to write a legendary adventure story of a little wizard, so she followed Rowling's example and set up a main plot, using one story per volume as a subplot, with the six subplots converging into the main plot.

In the end, it was indeed completed as planned. The volume that Ah Hong was most satisfied with was the second volume, which was the volume that started the main storyline. Ah Hong also planted many foreshadowing elements in the second volume. Diana, the female protagonist, was in the outline, but Narcissa was not. Some people asked if Ah Hong's favorite female protagonist was Narcissa. Actually, no. Ah Hong's favorite female protagonist is Lilith, because Ah Hong carefully depicted Lilith's growth experience and path to becoming stronger, which is almost the same as Moriarty's, belonging to one in the light and one in the dark.

Another interesting point is that Dumbledore and Grindelwald were given two outlines by Ah Hong. One is the one written in the book, and the other is that Moriarty kills them all. Haha.

The apparent boss, Gamp, was determined before the book even started, as was Merlin. Ah Hong is still very happy that she didn't ruin their characters' lives.

Actually, Ah Hong has also noticed many flaws, and she is already learning from them and working hard to improve. Ah Hong also wants to see everyone's reviews of this book! Previously, Ah Hong didn't know much about Western fantasy, but in the past two years, she has been studying Western fantasy, including major IPs like Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Warcraft, Warhammer, Twilight, The Vampire Diaries, and Cthulhu.

This is also preparation for the next book, because Ah Hong also wants to write HP fanfiction, hehe. The side stories I promised fans will also be updated in the group. Most importantly, the new book is in preparation; I already have several ideas, but which one gets released depends on which one passes the internal review. Please give it your support!

Hogwarts will never end!

Harry Potter's "Hogwarts: The Big Boss" has concluded!
