Protest Denied

Albert and Isobel's Hogsmeade date, though with a few minor hiccups along the way, was generally satisfactory. Their relationship was now completely clear, and they headed straight for marriage after graduation.

Before returning to Hogwarts Castle, the two went on a shopping spree at Honeydukes Sweetshop.

As for Katrina's problem, Albert completely forgot about it. Albert believed Isobel could handle the situation between the McDougal sisters on her own.

When Albert saw Katrina again, he noticed that she was looking at him strangely, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

After all, their relationship was nothing more than that; they weren't even friends, let alone lovers.

Shortly after the Hogsmeade Weekend ended, rumors of Albert's romantic escapades began to circulate at Hogwarts School. Most of the girls were interested in Albert's date with Isobel, but he himself was not affected by these gossips at all, as the matter was forgotten after a few days.

There was no way around it; Lee Jordan, the number one gossipmonger who loved spreading rumors everywhere, was silenced by Albert.

Fred and George were also quite disappointed that they hadn't been able to witness Albert and Isobel's intimate moment. They were still upset that they had missed such a rare opportunity, knowing that such a chance to tease Albert was not common.

Even if they wanted to find evidence against Albert for dating, they simply couldn't. Albert rarely met with Isobel privately outside of class, let alone went on dates.

At least, the Weasley Twins couldn't find the location of the two's date using the Marauder's Map.

Fred and George couldn't find it, of course, since the Room of Requirement isn't shown on the Marauder's Map.

However, after staring at the Marauder's Map for a long time, the two discovered a big secret: there were actually two Albert in Hogwarts Castle at the same time.

What exactly happened? The two were greatly surprised and ran over to ask Albert, only to find themselves walking right into the line of fire.

"I've already said that only those of you who have chosen all subjects are qualified to know about this. Moreover, I've promised Professor McGonagall that I would keep this a secret. If you really want to know, I suggest you ask Professor McGonagall." Albert was extremely annoyed after learning about this. How could they be so bored as to care about his date with Isobel? He decided to temporarily keep the Marauder's Map to prevent those two bastards from causing him trouble again.

"You can't do that. Without the Marauder's Map, we can't surprise Filch tonight."

Fred and George strongly protested this.

"It's just right to take a few days off!"

Albert declared the protest invalid and Marauder's Map into his pocket.

After a round of grumbling and complaining, the three stopped talking about the two Albert. Some things were better left unasked, otherwise Albert would use Memory Charm to make them forget. They hadn't forgotten Albert's warning; this matter was clearly more complex than just a so-called Clone Charm.

Albert also began to study the Marauder's Map. This thing was not as simple as just casting Tracking Charm on a piece of parchment. If you only used the Tracking Charm on the parchment, the magic left on the parchment would gradually lose its effect over time.

Well, simply put, it's about stacking the power of magic by casting spells simultaneously, thereby enhancing the effect of the Charms.

The most common example is Dragon Tamer deal with dragons. They use more than ten wizards together to cast a Stunning Spell Stunning Spell, which can effectively penetrate the dragon's skin and take effect.

The greater the power, the longer the magic can last; the Sorting Hat is a prime example.

The Marauder's Map was not only tethered with Tracking Charm, but its contents were also magically concealed. Of course, the most noteworthy element was the advanced Tracking Charm used by the four on the parchment.

The advanced use of most spells goes beyond their original form; it's more about how to use them.

Albert once tried to use Shield Charm to conceal his presence and attempt to erase himself from the Marauder's Map, but he failed.

In fact, the Shield Charm is primarily used to conceal the presence of wizards and prevent them from being found by tracking magic. Therefore, this spell is more effective against owls, easily preventing owl messengers from finding wizards who have used it.

If an advanced application of the Shield Charm could be developed, it might be possible to successfully shield against advanced Tracking Charm, but Albert didn't have much time to waste researching this spell.

Albert thought that Nicolas Flamel should be able to use a high-level Shield Charm. For hundreds of years, the LeMay Couple had been able to hide their presence very well, making it difficult for other wizards to find them.

However, Albert dared not write to Nicholas, lest he cause them unnecessary trouble. In fact, even if he did write to Nicolas Flamel, the owl could not deliver the envelope to Nicholas's hands.

If only they had Two-Way Mirror between them, Albert could contact the other frequently and consult Nicolas Flamel on alchemy and other matters.

In Albert's eyes, the LeMay Couple were no less than a precious treasure trove of knowledge.

Since the Marauder's Map came along, Albert has occasionally kept an eye on Quirrell's movements. The Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor seems to still be lingering on the fourth floor, and Quirrell seems to still be struggling with how to get past Hagrid's Three-Headed Dog.

As for the other professors' institutions, Quirrell should have already started secretly inquiring about them.

"Halloween is just around the corner!"

Albert had no intention of getting involved with the Saviors trio. He felt that without Hermione's reliable help, Harry Potter might have died a violent death someday.

The Savior Potter cannot fall, after all, he has to stand up against the pressure brought by Voldemort.

If Harry Potter, the Potter, dies inexplicably, what will happen in the future? Should he go and confront Voldemort? Although Albert considers himself to be quite lucky, he doesn't want to take the risk. Voldemort's wand might spare Harry, but it wouldn't spare him.

If you accidentally fall victim to Avada Kedavra, you might just die on the spot.

What system? What time traveler? They're all bullshit in the face of death.

Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is the nature of time travelers.

Sure enough, the task of confronting Voldemort is best left to the savior Harry Potter.

A person like him is best suited to stand by and cheer for the savior, and incidentally scatter some paper money for Voldemort to send him on his way.
