Chapter 29 Salute, Dumbledore’s old senior
Harry's scar suddenly stung sharply.
He subconsciously put his hand on his forehead and recalled the past a hundred years ago in his mind.
One hundred years ago today, September 6, 1891.
It was during the fifth grade vacation. He and several classmates successfully put down the goblin rebellion. On September 6, they faced the goblin leader Lanlock and defeated him.
It was a really hard battle, and even the Avada Kedavra curse cast by Sebastian in a hurry could not cause any harm to Lanlock...
"Uh..." Harry groaned subconsciously due to the severe pain in his scar.
"Harry, what's wrong with you?" Ron approached with concern.
"It's okay." Harry quickly covered his cheek with his little hand and said, "Toothache, you know, the gums are inflamed."
Memories came flooding back, and he finally recalled how he got back to 1991.
At the moment when Lanlock, who transformed into a dragon, suddenly fell to the ground, Harry only had time to shoot out a shield of armor before he felt hit by a red light.
When he opened his eyes again, he had already returned to the stairwell of his aunt's house.
At the end of his memory, he clearly saw the frightened and helpless looks of Velatia and Cassandra.
"Harry!"
He finally remembered that the two calls were not from his aunt, but from two girls.
"Harry Potter." Seeing that Harry was fine, Hagrid raised his beard and educated the little kids: "Perhaps you have heard of his name - I mean the Mr. Potter from a hundred years ago. ”
"No." Hermione frowned, "I have read many books, such as "A History of Modern Magic", "The Rise and Fall of Dark Arts" and "Important Magical Events of the Twentieth Century", and they only mentioned our Harry. ——This is the savior before us who defeated Voldemort.”
Hearing Voldemort's name, Hagrid, Ron and Neville shuddered in unison.
"Oh, good girl." Hagrid bit his lip and said, "Don't say that name directly - besides, Mr. Potter is a figure from the 19th century and belongs to modern times. You have mentioned it in "Modern History of Magic" and "Second History of Magic". Of course, his deeds cannot be seen in "Important Magical Events of the Tenth Century"
"In fact," Hagrid whispered again: "Because he suppressed the goblin rebellion with an iron fist and died together with the goblin leader Lanlock, the goblins of Gringotts paid a lot of money and bribed everyone to hide this name as much as possible. ——At least people avoid mentioning that for a while, before the mysterious man appeared, this code name once belonged to Mr. Potter.”
Okay, Voldemort, Harry thought, now we have another score to settle!
"Even the school history doesn't mention him?" Hermione asked with a frown.
"Otherwise, guess why it's called "Hogwarts: A History of the School"?" Hagrid said, spreading his big hands.
It turns out that the school history has also been deleted...Hermione nodded in understanding.
"Then how did you know about his deeds?" Seamo discovered a blind spot.
Hagrid scratched his head and said, "Of course it was Dumbledore who told me. Speaking of which, Mr. Potter was still his senior. If Mr. Potter had not died together with Lanlock, he would have died in the seventh grade." Will witness Dumbledore's sorting - of course, Dumbledore once said that even he could not do better than Mr. Potter."
Oh, this damn seniority, Harry thought to himself. "He...is he that powerful?" Ron asked in surprise.
"Oh, of course." Hagrid said mysteriously: "There is also a legend among the goblins that a 'mysterious man' once visited Azkaban. As a result, the dementors there were desperately trying to recall happy memories. Things..."
Harry was a little speechless. Was I so scary back then?
Merlin's beard, I have never used Avada Kedavra on goblins!
It's just a matter of disarming their weapons and throwing them around their necks; or turning rocks into powder barrels and throwing them in their faces.
Hagrid added: "But it's a coincidence that his name is the same as Harry's, isn't it?"
"Yeah." Harry smiled at Hagrid.
"But this is actually not a coincidence." Hagrid suddenly said seriously.
"Eh?" Several little dolls exclaimed together.
Harry's heart also skipped a beat. Could it be that...Hagrid discovered something?
"Isn't this a coincidence?" Seamus asked in surprise: "Don't be ridiculous Hagrid, can that Harry still be our Harry?"
"Oh, don't be stupid, Seamus." Hagrid spread his hands and said, "That Mr. Potter has already died together with Lanlock. In the wizarding world at that time, the wizards called him the 'Savior' because he not only pacified the goblins. Rebellion, and together with a few good friends, destroyed the Fire Ash Snake Party.”
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"In the days when the Fire Serpent Party was raging, not only the wizards, but also the Muggles had a hard time." Hagrid said again.
"So," Hermione raised her head, "a hundred years ago there was a 'Harry Potter' who was the savior and saved the magical world; and a hundred years later, there was also a savior named 'Harry Potter', Saved the magical world?”
"That's right." Hagrid nodded and said, "Speaking of this is not a coincidence, let's start with James. The mysterious man at that time - I mean the mysterious man from Slytherin - was killing innocent people in the wizarding world and eating food. The Dead Apostles were ravaging the entire magical world, and the days were really dark.”
"After thinking about it, James Potter decided to name his son Harry Potter," Hagrid recounted the past. "On the one hand, it was to commemorate the great savior a hundred years ago, and also to commemorate the great savior from a hundred years ago. He placed his hope on his own child, hoping that he could defeat the mysterious man and help the wizarding world get out of the gloom like the predecessor with the same name a hundred years ago - as you can see, Harry lived up to his father's expectations. "
Harry opened his mouth. He really didn't expect that his name actually came from him?
It feels like a closed loop...
"Then he's not from the Potter family?" Ron asked curiously.
"Of course not. It is said that he is from Muggles." Hagrid smiled at Ron, "But the mysterious person starting with the letter V didn't believe it. He said that person must be a pure-blood."
"I really didn't expect that the wizarding world would be saved by two Harry Potters within a hundred years." Seamus exclaimed.
"What's this?" Hermione shook her fluffy head, put a hand on Harry's shoulder, and began to sing: "Sometimes, in our great island nation, responsibility will fall on one person, and he will lead the people out of the Valley of Shadows, Toward the sun-drenched highlands of peace and prosperity..."
"Cool, where did you learn this sentence?" Ron showed an admiring expression.
"Yes Prime Minister," Hermione said, "it's my dad's favorite TV series."
Harry thought for a moment and then asked Hagrid: "So Hagrid, where are Mr. Potter's friends, I mean the people who once fought alongside him, where are they?"
