Harry Potter: From Muggle Cousin to Conceptual Wizard

Chapter 245 Reactions from All Sides! Mad-Eye Han Awakens!

A series of bombshell news stories have thrown the entire Western magical world into turmoil.

Although Voldemort's initial harm was limited to the British wizarding community, this does not mean that wizarding communities in other countries were unaware of Voldemort's horrors.

After graduating from Hogwarts, Voldemort went abroad and wandered overseas for a full ten years!

He was learned and possessed a wide range of knowledge, combining the black magic of wizards from various Western countries, and had made a name for himself in the black magic circles of Western countries.

It was this special experience that led Voldemort to voluntarily transform into a noseless, red-eyed monster, and also allowed his magical abilities to leapfrog ahead, giving him the power to confront and even defeat Dumbledore, who wielded the Elder Wand, with his terrifying mastery of dark magic.

Now, Voldemort's soul has been captured by an Eastern dark wizard.

Does this mean that this dark wizard named Xuan Mo is even more terrifying than Voldemort?

Moreover, this Xuan Mo is not like Voldemort after he gained power, who only knew how to stay in Britain. Instead, he wanders all over the world. He was in Albania the day before yesterday, and who knows which country he will be wandering to today.

Although Dumbledore had already declared to the Ministers of Magic of various Western countries that Voldemort's soul was already weak and far from its prime, capturing him was not an unreasonable thing.

In addition, Xuan Mo has already lost a lot of his lifespan due to the attacks from the professors and teaching assistants at Hogwarts, becoming very weak and greatly reducing his combat power.

Furthermore, he relied entirely on a powerful treasure, and it was by sacrificing his life to activate this powerful treasure that he was able to unleash his terrifying combat power.

But a person's name is like a tree's shadow.

Even so, one cannot deny how terrifying Xuan Mo is.

He actually debuted using Voldemort's name.

Panic immediately swept through the magical communities of Western countries.

Suddenly, everyone was on edge, seeing threats everywhere.

A buying frenzy swept through magic defense supply stores, potion shops, bookstores, and other shops around the world.

Magical items, potions, and obscure spell information that could offer even the slightest protection or healing against mental attacks were all snapped up.

The wizards looked tense, and the Aurors were on high alert, forming small teams to search and investigate all over the world to maintain the stability of the magical world.

But not all wizards are afraid.

Many fanatical black wizards in Western countries believe that Xuan Mo is all bark and no bite, and that he has gained a great advantage by relying on powerful treasures.

They also began to form a group to search for Xuan Mo's whereabouts.

Don't get me wrong, the dark wizards aren't doing this to uphold justice and order; they're simply after the tattered Myriad Souls Banner in Xuan Mo's hands.

The level of panic in the British magical community was not as high as in other countries.

On the contrary, it was somewhat encouraging.

Because, in the eyes of British wizards, the terrifying stone that had been weighing on their hearts had been removed.

Although the person who was removed was a powerful dark wizard, there was a possibility of a counterattack.

But no matter what, that person was still driven away by the professors and teaching assistants of Hogwarts.

Not to mention they also have Dumbledore, their powerful anchor.

Of course, this uplifting atmosphere is also related to the Daily Prophet's detailed coverage of Dudley's public speech on campus.

Through this report, wizards can clearly understand that the magical world is developing in a prosperous direction.

Their children are receiving a more rigorous, but more practical, education.

The future is very promising.

The two-faced Death Eaters, including Draco's parents, the Malfoys, are now feeling neither good nor bad.

Logically, they should be glad they chose the right path and sided with the White Wizards, because Voldemort has fallen even deeper this time and is no longer a threat to them.

But as Dudley said in his speech, no one can fully fathom Voldemort's methods. His soul being captured does not mean he is dead or no longer a threat.

They might come back at any time.

After the two-faced Death Eaters openly sided with the White Wizards, they couldn't help but feel uneasy every time they heard news about Voldemort, whether good or bad.

Their current mindset is the same as Ron's when he received twenty Galleons as compensation in the train compartment.

Ron received the compensation for Banban's death, but he was very worried that Banban might not be completely dead, which would cause him to lose the compensation.

Meanwhile, some two-faced Death Eaters are now hoping that Voldemort is completely dead, so that no one will ever question their decision to side with the White Wizards.

……

Amidst the turmoil in the Western wizarding world, events are also unfolding within Hogwarts.

Moody woke up on Wednesday morning, just as Snape had predicted.

Upon learning the news, Dumbledore went to Moody's room to see him immediately and also notified Dudley using the Mirror Imprint.

When Dudley arrived at the ward, he saw Dumbledore earnestly trying to persuade Moody to straighten up and cheer up.

However, the results were unsatisfactory.

Moody was very upset when he learned that he and Lupin had been betrayed by Barty Jr. and Nagini. He felt that he was too old to hold the wand properly anymore.

Seeing the empty space of her left leg with her only remaining right eye, she felt even more frustrated.

I wanted to find my rose-colored wine jug so I could have a couple of sips to drown my sorrows, but the jug is gone now.

He was completely deaf to Dumbledore's words of advice and comfort, and his spirit was no longer what it used to be.

"What, the hero Auror who captured half of Azkaban's prisoners is now a dejected good-for-nothing?"

Dali walked into the ward, saw the current situation, and immediately offered a powerful and painful piece of advice.

The powerful medicine had an amazing effect. Sitting on the hospital bed, Moody immediately looked up and stared at Dudley with wide eyes: "You are... Dudley Dursley, the first assistant teacher at Hogwarts."

For an Auror, intelligence is paramount.

Moody had read the newspaper and memorized Dudley's face; upon seeing him now, he quickly recognized him.

Then he frowned, carefully examining Dudley with his remaining eye to assess Dudley's strength and danger, and reached for his wand.

Previously, Barty had also thrown Moody's wand into the spatial suitcase. When Dudley rescued Moody, he casually took out Moody's wand and put it on the stretcher that was carrying Moody at the time.

After Moody woke up, he quickly put away his wand in his pocket, and then easily found it.

But after touching him, Moody realized that Dudley was not a dark wizard. On the contrary, according to Dumbledore, Dudley was the one who exposed Barty's disguise and rescued him from dire straits.

Moody withdrew his hand from the wand with a slightly embarrassed expression; he had just been acting out of professional habit.

But ignoring that, Moody was still very unhappy to hear Dudley call him a piece of trash.

He was about to frown and say something when Dali chuckled and teased him first:

"Professor Moody's reaction was quite quick, wasn't it? This isn't the reaction of someone who has lost their ambition. How about we find a place to spar?"
