A Certain Magical Hogwarts

Chapter 482 Harry was eaten by Lupin?!

Ron huddled in the chair, trying to keep his head down and avoid Dumbledore's gaze.

"Don't kill me... I'll confess everything, please don't kill me... I know the names of many Death Eaters..."

Ron pleaded, his voice choked with sobs.

"The Imperius Curse, clearly... a very powerful Imperius Curse." Dumbledore's eyes flashed with anger.

There's a reason why the Imperius Curse is listed as one of the three unforgivable curses.

It works on the soul, and in terms of its evil, it is no less powerful than the other two spells.

The Imperius Curse can control a person silently and issue various commands directly into their mind.

In terms of difficulty, it is even more challenging than the other two.

Of course, the Imperishable Curse also has weaknesses.

It is the only one of the Unforgivable Curses that can be forcibly broken through strong willpower.

If the caster is not skilled in the technique, others can easily notice the abnormality and stiffness of the person under the spell.

In fact, this problem isn't limited to the Imperius Curse; it also applies to the Killing Curse and the Cruciatus Curse.

A skilled wizard can easily kill someone with a single blow using Avada Kedavra. A less skilled wizard might at most cause their opponent to bleed from the nose.

The same applies to the Heart-Piercing Curse; it cannot imbue others with the power of hatred, and even if the incantation is recited, it cannot cause them any painful torment.

Without a doubt, Peter is an expert in this field.

He cast the Imperishable Curse, telling Ron what to do at every step in his mind.

It's not easy to imitate others, but controlling Ron to imitate him... Peter won't make a single mistake.

Dumbledore held his wand and chanted incantations over Ron's head for an unknown amount of time before stopping.

Ron suddenly opened his eyes wide, leaned back in his chair and gasped for breath, like a sardine that had been thrown ashore.

"Are you awake, Ron?" Dumbledore asked softly.

"...Headmaster...Professor Dumbledore..." Ron wailed loudly.

He wept bitterly, his whole body trembling.

"It was Banban...he's a wizard...he suddenly attacked me..."

"When did this happen?" Dumbledore asked.

"Before Christmas... Banban suddenly turned into a wizard. He took my old wand and turned me into a... groundhog... and then back into my likeness."

Ron was trembling all over, as if he were having a nightmare.

He suddenly said angrily:

"Harry! I bit him... I crawled into his pants at night... and bit him."

"I've tried various methods to remind him many times... I even bit him until he bled, but he still didn't notice anything was wrong." Ron cried, feeling aggrieved.

"Harry even threw me in the trash can and covered it with the lid."

Another time, it was tied with a rope and hung outside the window... a castle dozens of meters high!

Several times, I heard him ask Fred for rat poison…”

Ron suddenly broke down, sobbing incoherently, demanding to see his parents.

"It will be alright, everything will be alright," Dumbledore comforted her. "Minerva, I need you to take Mr. Weasley to the school hospital."

I think Madam Pomfrey will concoct a potion for Ron so he can get a good night's sleep.

Professor McGonagall, her hands trembling, led poor Ron away.

"Grab Blake now!" Fudge shouted after standing there dumbfounded for a while.

Kingsley and Dexter hesitated.

"Connelly, I think you heard what Ron just said?" Dumbledore said seriously.

Peter attacked Ron and transformed into his likeness. He also turned Ron into a groundhog and carried him around to avoid detection.

They then gave him a compound decoction, luring him into their trap to die as a substitute…

Minister Fauci suddenly flew into a rage.

"There is no Peter at all! Albus, this is a self-directed and self-acted play."

He paced back and forth in the room.

"I saw it all. Black captured the boy, turned Weasley into Peter, and then cast the Imperius Curse."

Merlin, Imperius!

During the Wizarding Wars, many people were controlled by the Imperius Curse and then went to work at the Ministry of Magic without being noticed.

Blake actually used this on a child... just to frame the already dead Peter for the crime.

What about changing the secret agent? What about Peter still being alive? The performance was so convincing, we were all fooled.

I'm telling you, Albus, it's all a lie. This is the truth!

"Then how do you explain the compound decoction?" Hermione couldn't help but retort.

"Ron couldn't look like Peter without Peter's hair, which means Peter is still alive."

Fudge started to stutter; his grades were bad, and he had long forgotten everything he had learned before.

He really didn't know if there were any other variations besides compound decoctions.

Fudge pulled Delilah aside, and the two whispered among themselves in a corner.

A moment later, he said smugly, "Miss Granger, I know about shapeshifting, which can turn one person into another."

This requires a high level of skill in Transfiguration, and Black is an illegal Animagus who happens to be proficient in Transfiguration.

That's exactly what he did!

Dumbledore was somewhat disappointed; he had seen through Fudge. Without securing Peter's trust, it was impossible to convince Fudge.

He suddenly turned his head and asked, "William, Harry, and Peter who turned into Ron?!"

"Hermione and I just checked, and Peter has probably already run away," William said.

"On the way, I ran into Professor Lupin, and I asked him to take Harry back to the Gryffindor common room."

"Hmm, very thoughtful." Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief.

Ahhhhhh!

Suddenly, a distinctive wolf howl came from afar.

William's expression changed, and he glanced out the window. A full moon was peeking out completely from behind the thick clouds.

Snape's expression changed drastically, and he asked in surprise, "Did Lupin forget to take his medicine tonight?"

Oh no, Harry's still with Lupin!

William quickly opened the Hogwarts map.

Strangely, Professor Lupin's location was neither in the Gryffindor common room nor in the castle.

Instead, it appeared near the Willow Tree that Hit People!

As for Harry... his name has completely disappeared from the map!

Harry was killed by Lupin in his werewolf form?!

……

……

Not far from the willow tree that hits people,

Hagrid roared, staring at the scene before him.

A huge gray wolf was tearing at itself. Beside it lay blood, a ripped robe, and a shoe.

"Harry!!"

Hagrid felt dizzy; his arms, gripping the bow and arrow, trembled violently, and large tears splattered on him.

"This can't be real!"

Hagrid recognized them immediately; they were Harry's shoes and clothes.

And that pool of blood on the ground...

So Harry himself... has already been eaten by wolves!

Professor Lupin, now a wolf, had completely lost his mind. He stared coldly at Hagrid and charged forward.

"Ah!" Hagrid roared. "Spit Harry out right now!"

The silver arrow was stuck in the ground. He clenched his fist, which was as big as a sandbag, and prepared to beat the wolf to death.

The gray wolf started running, covering the distance of several dozen steps in an instant.

Hagrid reached out, twisted his hands, and grabbed the huge wolf claw.

He made a swift, sweeping motion and then suddenly rammed into the wolf, sending it flying and creating a large crater upon landing.

Lupin was struck hard, his head swaying, and he was seriously injured.

Hagrid's eyes were icy cold. He didn't give the gray wolf any time to come to its senses. He strode forward, his five claws reaching out to grab the gray wolf's head.

Hagrid swung forward, his wrist pointing diagonally upward, and with a sudden burst of force, the gray wolf was thrown backward.

Hagrid exerted force with his five fingers and lifted Lupin's body into the air.

A light shone in the night sky, and a spell shot out without warning, striking Hagrid in the eye.

Hagrid released Lupin, stepped back, and covered his aching eyes.

"Who is it?! Show yourself!"

The full moon hangs in the sky.

A gentle breeze blew by.

But no one answered him.
