("Harry ~" x3)

(At this moment, Harry arrived in the Rune Card World. Harley, Roan, Draco, who were watching the live stream through him, didn't find Harry's excited expression out of place at all; they only felt sorry for him.)

Ron felt the same way; it was as if his heart had been punched.

Then he subconsciously looked towards the live stream, hoping to see Harry's comment.

(James Potter: "Is this me?")

(Lily breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing him speak; it seemed he hadn't grasped Snape's implied meaning.)

(Sirius: "Is this James? He doesn't look like James at all! He looks exactly like Lily Evans.")

(Lupin: "Maybe it's because of the actors? There's no way to find an adult who looks exactly like Daniel to play James.")

(Harry: "I'm fine.")

(Ginny thought this was directed at her and smiled.)

Ron, however, thought it was directed at him and smiled broadly.

Seeing Harry in the scene manage to break free from the illusion of his parents and return to his dormitory just so Ron could see them, Dumbledore's lips twitched. He had to admit that Harry and Ron in this world had a better relationship.

Or perhaps it's more like the relationship between him and Gellert.

The images in the Pensieve did not stop as Dumbledore pondered. Ron thought there was something wrong with the mirror and advised Harry against it, but Harry did not agree and still went to the Magic Mirror late at night.

Dumbledore appeared and told him about the magic and dangers of the mirror, and that the happiest person in the world could use the Mirror of Erised as an ordinary mirror.

Then, with Hedwig appearing and leading the transition—a panoramic view of the entire Hogwarts Castle —the scene shifts to the Great Hall.

Hermione mocked Ron for playing cards when final exams were just around the corner.

(Mrs. Weasley's affection for Hermione instantly increased significantly. She was somewhat disappointed that her son Ron would not be able to be with this wonderful girl like Hermione did in the movies.)

"I've reviewed everything, ask me anything," Ron said confidently in the video.

(Mrs. Weasley blinked somewhat suspiciously.)

"Why are final exams coming up so soon?" Ron said, somewhat annoyed. He knew what was going to happen next and closed his eyes in advance.

But the sound still came from the Pensieve.

"Alright, what are the three most important ingredients for making the Draught of Living Death?"

"I forgot."

("Just as I expected!" Mrs. Weasley exclaimed in exasperation.)

(Ron has now disgraced the entire Wizarding World, no, and even the afterlife, in front of the Weasley and Prewett's ancestors!)

"So, what would you do if this question appeared on the final exam?"

"Just copy yours."

"Oh no." Hearing this, Ron buried his face in his hands, ignoring Draco's snickering, and complained to Rupert, "Do you guys really need to go to such lengths in your movies?"

("Ron Weasley!" Mrs. Weasley was furious upon hearing Ron's reply.)

(At the same time, she quickly explained in the live stream, "Dad, Mom, Ron is an exception. Bill, Charlie, Percy are all excellent. They are Prefect, student council presidents, and they got 12 certificates in the OWLs exams!")

(Snape: "I have a hard time not suspecting that Weasley's previous Potions Class grades weren't obtained through cheating. I think it's necessary for me to be a little stricter with you on your homework. Your Friday assignment will be extended by a foot, and I'll be checking it carefully then.")

"We're doomed!" Ron nearly collapsed from shock at what he saw.

"I'm the one who's doomed!" Neville said, as he hopped into the Great Hall with his legs stuck together by Draco Malfoy's Leg-Locker Curse.

("Neville, Neville," Neville's grandmother sighed.)

In the scene, Seamus is about to offer his help with his cane, but Neville refuses, saying, "I don't want to burn my kneecaps."

Seamus was furious and confessed without being asked that his eyebrows had grown back.

When she turned around, she saw a bald patch on the back of her head, and Hermione, who happened to see this, almost burst out laughing.

(Seamus: Is it funny?)

Fortunately, Harry shouted, "I found it!"

This eased Hermione's smile.

Ron read aloud the contents of the Dumbledore chocolate card.

Hermione, realizing something, told Ron and Harry to follow, leaving Neville, who was waiting for the curse to be broken, behind. She then fell down, drawing a burst of laughter.

"Hannah will definitely laugh at me." Neville was extremely depressed.

Rupert offered a comforting explanation. "Actually, the Great Hall of you in the novel is even worse off. It's not that you're in the Great Hall on the first floor, but that you have to keep this look on and hop like a rabbit all the way back to the Gryffindor Common Room on the Seventh Floor."

"You were laughed at by everyone in the common room. Only Hermione didn't laugh; she released the curse on you and saved you."

"Actually, I think this change is particularly bad. This is also a highlight scene for Hermione, showcasing her uniqueness, and it doesn't affect the rhythm."

"In the end, they insisted on reducing my and Dan's scenes. Hermione's own scenes were already quite substantial."

(Professor McGonagall first exclaimed in admiration of Hermione from the novel, "What a good girl!")

(Then I realized that this was actually a very good revision.)

(The distance from the first floor to the Seventh Floor was so vast, yet not a single student saw what was happening and offered to help.)

(The higher floors are Ravenclaw and Gryffindor.)

(Ravenclaw like to shut themselves away and mind their own business, but this applies to Gryffindor, who advocate courage and justice.)

(If it's on the first floor, then that makes sense.)

Dumbledore had also thought of this. He sighed. Gryffindor indeed not as it claimed. The students there spoke of courage but were more reckless, and their self-proclaimed justice was mostly narrow-minded.

In the scene, Hermione in the library has finished introducing Nick Flume and his Philosopher's Stone, and guessed that the Philosopher's Stone is hidden in the Trapdoor under Fluffy.

(Nick Flume: "The Philosopher's Stone, my greatest invention. Now that I in this world am still alive, has his Philosopher's Stone been destroyed like mine?")

(Nick Flume's sudden appearance left countless viewers speechless.)

(Although the lifespan of wizards has now been extended to tens of thousands of years due to the knowledge of the Magic Immortal World, the Philosopher's Stone can do more than just create Elixir of Life.)

(For the audience in the Wizarding World, who are no longer completely ignorant of science, its ability to transform matter is the most remarkable thing.)

(And yet, such a miracle was destroyed so easily.)

(This lessened their bewilderment at how easily Hagrid obtained the dragon egg in the scene.)

"How beautiful!" Dumbledore exclaimed. "Its cry is much more pleasant than that of the Norwegian Ridgeback from our world."

(Hagrid perked up; the fact that the Norwegian Ridgeback from another world was different ignited his passion for this world.)

"I don't understand," Neville said, puzzled. "They were clearly discovered by Malfoy, so why did they go back to the castle without even trying to hide it?"

Rupert glanced at Neville. "This actually reduces your screen time. In fact, Draco didn't tell the Professor. He really likes dragons and wants to get his hands on one."

Draco thought about the tattoos on his body and his posture in this world, "He really likes dragons."

Rupert ignored him and continued, "Hagrid raised dragons for quite some time."

("Norbert ~" Hagrid began to feel a pang of jealousy towards himself in this world.)

"Harry has come up with a plan: contact Charlie and have him take the dragon away."

("I still have a role?" Charlie, surprised and somewhat disappointed.)

(This is a rare Norwegian Ridgeback. If he could get his hands on one, it would undoubtedly be a significant achievement. He would not only receive a generous bonus from the dragon farm, but also help his brother and Hagrid. Why not?)

(Unfortunately, he didn't have that opportunity.)

Charlie agreed, but Ron forgot to take Charlie's letter out of a book in the library.

"This book just happened to be borrowed by Malfoy. It might have been intentional, since you never lower your voices when you discuss things, and he might have overheard you."

"In short, this undoubtedly angered Malfoy, but even so, he was not prepared to tell his teacher."

"Instead, I'm preparing to take the dragon away from you and take it all for myself."

Draco's mouth gaped open. He hadn't expected that he in this world would like dragons so much and dare to face Hermione, Harry, and Ron alone. Didn't he know that he simply didn't have the strength to do so?

"Neville also heard what Malfoy said and is preparing to come and inform you."

"But in the end, you were all caught by Professor McGonagall."

"Where's Norbert?" Ron asked quickly.

"It's alright," Rupert said. "You guys—oh, right, without you, you got bitten by Norbert and your hand is so swollen you're in the Hospital Wing. It was Hermione and Harry. They were wearing Invisibility Cloak, so they shouldn't have been caught. But they got too cocky and, after seeing Draco get caught, they managed to get rid of the dragon. As a result, they forgot their Invisibility Cloak at the top of the tower. In the end, they were caught by Professor McGonagall."

"Actually, Professor McGonagall is also biased towards Gryffindor here."

Ron and Neville shook their heads. "What?" "Impossible!"

"Because in her understanding, the three of you deliberately tricked Draco into believing there was a dragon, hoping he would get caught while out for a nighttime stroll. But in the end, you, including Draco and Neville, all had 50 points deducted, 50 each, plus solitary confinement," Rupert said.

"She definitely favors her," Draco said. "Just like in the movie, I didn't go to find Potter and the others; I went to her to report them. And just like in the novel, I got 50 points deducted from my salary. I also got solitary confinement. The reason given was that my intentions were good, but I still went out at night."

Dumbledore coughed. "It seems our world has been divided again because of Basil's presence. Norbert, here she's a female dragon, we should call her Norberta. She's still at Hogwarts. In Hagrid's chest."

(Dumbledore, who was in charge of sending the dragon away in Charlie's scene, said, "Actually, Norbert in our world is also a female dragon.")

("A box! Could it be one like Professor Scamander's box?!" Hagrid practically roared. He wished he could be like himself in this world. Then he could raise even more adorable Fantastic Beasts.)

In the scene, the four people arrive at the Forbidden Forest.

Harry and Draco encountered a shadowy figure feeding on Unicorn House.

Draco vanished in an instant, but Harry stubbornly refused to run. He glanced at the shadowy figure again, and when the figure approached, he simply faced it and backed away, eventually tripping over a tree root.

Fortunately, a centaur appeared at that moment and chased away the shadowy figure.

Ron: "."

He originally wanted to complain that Draco was a coward who only knew how to run away, and even ran in the wrong direction, running back and forth twice.

But Harry's behavior left him speechless.

( In the Rune Card World, Harley, and the others stare at Harry with the same suspicious look as Ron.)

(Quirrell: "Actually, I was also very surprised. I had deliberately given them both a lot of time to escape, but Harry Potter just wouldn't move. I thought it was because he wasn't afraid and had mastered the Prophecy power against Voldemort.")

("I was overjoyed and rushed over. But he tripped and fell on his backside. At that moment, I really wanted to strangle him.")

(Harry: No wonder you were going to strangle me in that room instead of using your wand.)

(James, who had previously marveled at his son's extraordinary Mental Power during the Troll, finally spoke up, "Is that you, the shadowy figure? Voldemort Dumbledore! You're insane! You sent my son to the Forbidden Forest for a mere night stroll, and he even ran into Voldemort!")

(Snape, who was about to unleash a torrent of abuse, deleted the sentence he was about to send.)

(Sirius: "You old lunatic!")

(Lucius Malfoy: "My son almost died in first grade? Looks like I was right to expel you from school.")

(Voldemort: "I recognize that as the young wizard from the Malfoy family. That's why I helped Quirrell give them time to escape.")

(Godric Gryffindor: "Successor, it's normal for first-year students to go to the Forbidden Forest. But that's assuming the forest is only inhabited by Troll and Werewolf; dark wizards are still too dangerous.")

(Helga Hufflepuff: "Godric, Troll Werewolf are dangerous to young wizards too.")

(Dumbledore: "I was there too. Don't worry, I'll step in when necessary.")

"You're not entirely a jerk." Ron felt even more strongly about the scene where Malfoy called Hagrid over.

He was with Hagrid and Hermione at the time, and his mind was filled with worry for Harry, so much so that he overlooked this.

Draco scoffed. "I'm going to stay in Potter and make him regret not being my friend."

(Draco narrowed her eyes; she felt that her feelings for Harry weren't quite innocent, just like Ron's.)

In the scene, Hermione, Ron, Harry have returned to the common room, and the three of them are discussing the matter.

Hermione finally concluded, "As long as Dumbledore is around, you're safe."

(Sirius: "I highly doubt that. Harry's dangers were all orchestrated by him.")

(Snape then deleted the comment he was about to send in agreement.)

The scene suddenly jumped to the end of the exam.

"I'd always heard that the final exams at Hogwarts were horrible, but I think it's pretty fun," Hermione said with a smile as she walked out of the castle with Harry and Ron.

Harry noticed the pain in his scar and believed it was a sign of impending danger.

Hagrid playing the flute in front of the cabin caught Harry's attention, and he immediately connected the dots, concluding that the Shadow was the one who lost the dragon egg to Hagrid.

He then confirmed this with Hagrid had indeed told the stranger that the Fluffy, was weak in music.

(Hermione: "Does this music have a name, Hagrid? It's the same as the movie soundtrack.")

(Rubeus Hagrid: "My dad taught me this. It's the tune that helps me fall asleep peacefully when my mom leaves.")

(@Arbers Hagrid)

("Dad, do you know?")

(Abbots Hagrid: "I was just making this up.")

Harry, who was preparing to find Dumbledore, learned from Professor McGonagall that Dumbledore had already gone to London.

(Sirius: "I told you, he's never around when it matters.")

(Snape deleted the message he was about to send again.)
