My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

Chapter 515, Section 512: The Lost Prophecy

Seeing Lynn's victory, Karkaroff no longer wore the sour look he had before.

His face was expressionless, showing neither joy nor sorrow. He even clapped his hands silently, just like the other young Hogwarts wizards watching the game.

So now the referee team is in a strange situation.

Of the four school principals, only Mrs. Maxim of Beauxbatons looked very unhappy with the result of the competition.

Karkaroff and Piccolo remained indifferent, while Dumbledore, as expected, clapped with a cheerful smile.

When it came to the final scoring, Karkaroff's performance didn't seem too deliberate.

He still gave Krum, who ranked third in terms of completion time, a high score of 9, while giving Lynn, who performed the best, only a score of 7.

This prevented the other young wizards from noticing anything amiss, and they privately complained about their dissatisfaction with him.

Even Krum himself felt somewhat ashamed of receiving such a score.

However, while they were dissatisfied with the result, it was not entirely unexpected.

Because in the first game, Karkaroff had already clearly shown a strong bias towards his school's Warriors.

After all, the principals of the four schools are all referees, so it's not too surprising that they would be biased towards their own school's students.

If Karkaroff were to show admiration for Lynn, that would raise a problem for most of the students.

So the students didn't notice anything amiss, and the second event of the Triwizard Tournament ended just like that.

But Harry and his two friends did not let these ordinary days pass by unnoticed.

In the Gryffindor common room, while the other young wizards were celebrating Lynn's victory in the second game, Harry, Ron, and Hermione gathered around the fireplace, chatting quietly.

"Dumbledore and Lynn must have already decided on some plan. They definitely want to use Karkaroff to capture the Mysterious Man."

Harry corrected Ron's statement.

"That's not the mysterious man. The real mysterious man has already been captured. What's outside now is just his remaining soul artifact."

"Alright, alright, even if it's just a Horcrux, it's still a part of the Mysterious Man. Anything related to him will definitely cause big problems, especially since it's a part of his soul."

Even as Ron spoke, he couldn't help but shudder.

Hermione, however, showed little interest in their conversation. She was holding a book about potions, as if studying the brewing methods of some strange potion.

However, Harry and the others did not seem to want Hermione to avoid the topic.

Now everyone at Hogwarts knows that Hermione is Lynn's closest friend.

"Do you know something, Hermione?" Harry looked at her expectantly. "Tell us quietly, we promise we won't tell anyone. Besides, we were the ones who reported Karkaroff's affair to Professor Fawkes."

Hermione looked up from her book, glancing helplessly at Harry and Ron, who was also looking at her.

"I have no idea what Lynn and Dumbledore are planning, and he wouldn't blurt out such things. You just need to know that with them around, there won't be any problems at Hogwarts."

Hermione wasn't lying; she genuinely had no idea what Lynn and Dumbledore were planning.

All that is known is that Lynn has been writing letters frequently lately, and he doesn't even have enough of his own owls, so he has borrowed many public owls from Hogwarts.

But Harry and Ron didn't think so. They couldn't believe that Hermione, who was currently deeply in love, would know nothing about Lynn. They assumed that Hermione didn't want to tell them the truth.

Hermione saw the expressions on their faces and suddenly put on a stern face, reminding them.

"You two had better not mess around in private. If something happens to you, no one will be able to save you!"

Seeing how serious she was, Harry and Ron, who had already been having some different thoughts, couldn't help but shrink back and laugh awkwardly.

"No, no, you know we're usually the most honest people."

"Hmph, if you two behaved yourselves, every other student at Hogwarts would be rated as an outstanding student!"

After the second match of the Triwizard Tournament, Lynn did not have a moment of peace.

That morning, he and Dumbledore stood together in the display room where the final trophy of the Triwizard Tournament was kept.

"Was this cup just made?" Lynn asked, gently tapping the trophy.

Dumbledore nodded.

"After all, the three tournaments haven't been held for over a hundred years. The Goblet of Fire used for selection is a magical item, but the trophy awarded to the champion is just an ordinary symbol of honor."

After confirming that the trophy that had just arrived at Hogwarts was fine, Lynn gave a reminder.

"It would be best to set up a spell or something else in this room that can be monitored at any time, just to be on the safe side."

Dumbledore smiled and pointed to the wall opposite the trophy, where a row of portraits of students who had brought honor to Hogwarts stood, indicating that these people in the portraits were his best eyes and ears.

When they saw Dumbledore pointing at them, the students in the portraits smiled in response.

Others openly boasted that they were the best guards, and that if anyone broke into the exhibition room, they would immediately report the news to Dumbledore.

Lynn, however, felt that this was not entirely safe.

After much deliberation, he decided to keep the scepter.

It was turned into another ordinary trophy and placed next to the championship trophy, serving as a more secure monitoring target.

After the status of the trophy was confirmed, Lynn also received a letter from old John on the same day.

The letter contained a lot of information, and it all came from the Americas, across the Atlantic.

Most of the content concerns various prophecies that have been circulating within the Magical Congress of the United States in recent years.

As a large wizarding population, the Ministry of Magic naturally has many prophetic masters who serve the Magical Congress of the United States.

However, the most famous American magic prophet does not hold any position in the Magic Congress, but instead serves as a professor of prophecy at the Ilvarmoni Magic Academy.

After reviewing many prophecies, Lynn was drawn to a news item that was not a parable but was related to one.

Four years ago, a year before Fontana disguised himself as a student to sneak into the castle and open the secret chamber, the famous American prophet lost a crystal ball containing mysterious prophecies, but it was quickly recovered by the Magical Congress of America.

Rumors circulate that the recovered crystal ball holds a great secret about the entire American magical world!

After a five-day cooling-off period, I realize that my previous statement about finishing this month was pure bullshit. After being a couch potato for so many days, I suddenly have the motivation to write again.

Of course, don't have too high hopes for me. I'm a man who can transform into an eel, and who knows when the grand finale will come.

I'll stop updating now, but I've already lost my perfect attendance record this month, so I'll just update once a day for now. I'll try my best to update twice a day next month.

That's it.
