A Certain Magical Hogwarts

Chapter 878 The Fighting Nation

Inside the principal's office,

William put the adorable Dementor into his safety watch.

Looking at the overly tense Sirius, he grinned and said:

"Long time no see, Sirius. That's Black Robe Number Two, the one I used to scout ahead."

Sirius was speechless. He really thought it was the British Ministry of Magic, chasing him across borders.

Sirius sighed, "Why did we have to use Dementors? I have a phobia of them."

Seeing William was initially a pleasant surprise, but now it's even more frightening.

William thought for a moment and said seriously, "Well, then I'll use the basilisk to scout the way next time."

"..."Then we might as well use a Dementor!

To be fair, William can't be blamed for this.

He does indeed possess many magical creatures, but many of the other animals are rare species.

For example, the basilisk... William would be heartbroken if something happened to it.

Only Dementors... are not only hard to kill, but even if they die, he doesn't care at all.

The old tool is weird.

William tapped the safety watch on his wrist, and after a moment, Hermione, who had locked up the Dementors, emerged from the watch.

"Sirius, it's been a long time," Hermione greeted.

"Haha, I knew you were with William."

Sirius smiled, then looked at William's watch, seemingly hoping that a little girl would pop out of it.

"Just the two of you? Where's Annie?"

The three of them are usually together.

"Annie is doing her Easter homework at school," Hermione said with a smile.

"That dreaded homework..."

Sirius Black wanted to curse, "That wicked professor!" but then he thought again:

He also instructed Durmstrang's professors to assign more homework to their students so they wouldn't have time to play during Easter...

Isn't that insulting yourself?

He walked towards the cabinet and looked it over, saying, "This is a vanishing cabinet."

He hadn't recognized it before, but after seeing William come out of the cabinet, he immediately knew what it was.

Sirius observed for a moment, then stuck his head inside and asked, "So if I go in now, I'll be at Hogwarts, right?"

He was somewhat excited; not to mention Anne, he himself hadn't seen his foolish godson in a long time.

"That leads to my office," William nodded.

"However, I suggest you don't go to Hogwarts now, but think about how to deal with Voldemort."

He's already come looking for you.

Sirius's expression turned serious.

Since replacing Karkaroff, he had long anticipated this day and was prepared for battle.

If it were just me, I definitely wouldn't be a match for Voldemort, but with William here... things are different.

Sure enough, William quickly laughed:

"Hermione and I have devised a plan to protect you for the time being."

Sirius took a breath.

His luckiest moment all these years was being found by Anne after crossing the ocean, and then meeting William and Hermione.

Two exceptionally intelligent people... you don't have to worry about anything.

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? Are you eating in the auditorium, or should I get you two...?" Sirius paused, then continued, "...a private room?"

"Let's eat in the auditorium. We want to experience the Durmstrang atmosphere," William said with a soft laugh.

"Also, please make sure to reserve the vice-principal's position for me."

At Hogwarts, William would most likely lose to Professor McGonagall.

There's Snape in line behind her, waiting to become vice-principal... By the time it's William's turn, who knows when.

I'd rather have some fun in Durmstrang.

"Are you two going out like this?" Sirius asked, looking at the two of them.

William and Hermione are so famous that they are sure to be recognized whenever they appear in front of students.

The Death Eaters also had informants in Durmstrang, which could easily alert Voldemort.

"Don't worry." Hermione took out two small bottles, shook them gently, and said, "We'll use Polyjuice Potion to become other people."

"And what about their identity?"

"Doesn't Durmstrang have seven board members?" William, already prepared, raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Is one of the school board members named Angelique?"

Sirius thought for a while before remembering the somewhat unfamiliar name.

"She hasn't appeared for a long time. From what I know, she usually only comes to visit the school once every ten years."

This is the kind of good school board member who only gives money but never cares about the school's affairs.

However, even he wasn't familiar with the name, so how did William know it?

William knew for a simple reason:

This witch named Angelico is just one of Professor Barbling's many aliases.

It was for this reason that she dared to impersonate William and act as a spy in the United States under the name Taglian.

Because with her abilities, she could indeed forge Targaryen's student records and files in Durmstrang... and find no problems with them.

"I've seen her a few times... Hermione and I can pretend to be her family," William said.

Sirius nodded; that was a good identity.

He thought for a moment, then winked and said:

"Then you two can pretend to be a couple returning from vacation and stay in the same room at night so you can look after each other. That way, I'll feel more at ease."

"Okay, that's settled then." William silently gave Sirius a thumbs up... This brother was definitely worth having!

(Harry: I've been reborn into a different generation for no reason?)

Hermione's pretty face flushed slightly, but she nodded nonetheless.

After William and Hermione finished taking Polyjuice Potion in the safe room, the three of them walked out of the headmaster's office.

Led by Sirius Black, William and Hermione toured the school, which was on par with Hogwarts.

Durmstrang Castle's decor is completely different from Hogwarts.

There are no movable stairs here, nor the boisterous atmosphere of Hogwarts.

The interior is predominantly decorated in cool colors, with a simple and austere style.

Although there are ghosts inside the castle, you rarely see portraits of people moving freely; instead, you see more stories of famous people and their quotes.

Of course, there were also patches of dark brown stuff that looked a lot like bloodstains.

Along the way, you can also encounter many students, who all bow respectfully upon seeing Kakarov.

The most incongruous thing was that there were a lot of banners hanging in the corridor.

"Surpass Beauxbatons in three years, catch up with Hogwarts in five."

"The bolder the students, the more productive their learning!"

"Study at full speed, a ten-year plan accomplished in three; study early and rest late, even adding three hours into the night!"

William: "..."

These words seem to be things he used to say to Annie, to encourage her to study hard.

"This is the advanced teaching experience I introduced!" Sirius Black said with a hint of pride, hands on his hips.

"You two just wait and see, in a few years, Durmstrang will definitely be number one in the European Education Assessment!"

"..."

William strongly suspects that Durmstrang may be the first prestigious university in Europe to go bankrupt.

No, we need to get Dumbledore recruiting students from all over Europe right away.

Otherwise, the students from Northern Europe would definitely be drawn away by Beauxbatons.

As for why students don't go to Kodos-Doris in Russia?

And that Russian magic school? It has a terrible reputation.

As is widely known, there are four of the three major magic schools in Europe.

That makes sense.

Russia's magic schools have been viewed with hostility and contempt by the West for quite some time now... It's politically correct to criticize them now and then.

In fact, even the Quidditch World Cup doesn't include Russian wizards.

Because their wizards play Quidditch by riding big trees, never by riding thin brooms that look like stalks.

If a collision occurs... fire arrows and star-sweeping weapons will be useless.

Don't ask, the answer is simply that they are a fighting nation.
