Third Year Ends with a One-Punch Farce (3000+) / When Will Britain's Two Balls Ever Get Their Moment?

And as Harry said, Aberforth Dumbledore should blame his own brother, because the root of the problem is Dumbledore's refusal to believe Harry.

If he hadn't insisted on verifying Trelawney's Prophecy, none of this mess would have happened!

"It's almost time. Let's go back to the year-end banquet and ignore him."

Seeing Aberforth Dumbledore's tragic second male lead appearance, Harry felt a little annoyed. Since it was almost time anyway, he decided to ignore him and dragged Hermione back to Hogwarts.

"This..." "Okay..."

Seeing that Haley and his companion were leaving so suddenly, the Weasley Brothers hesitated for a moment before finally following them out.

"Year-end banquet?!" Just after everyone had left, Aberforth Dumbledore, who had been wailing while clutching the portrait, suddenly looked up as if struck by lightning!

"That Potter family kid is right... it's all your fault! Even if you hid in the Headmaster's Office all day, you'd still show up at the ceremony tonight!!"

So Aberforth Dumbledore carefully repainted the portrait he treasured, then angrily wiped the snot and tears from his face with his sleeve, and stormed out with a furious expression!

And the direction he was heading was none other than the brightly lit Hogwarts!

Chapter 502 The third year ended in a farcical one-punch scene (3000+ words)

At night, the Hogwarts Great Hall, which had undergone some simple renovations, was bustling with people, and the long tables of the four houses were laden with all kinds of delicious food.

Despite having just experienced a riot, the atmosphere of the celebration was still quite strong.

Bright red flags hung high in the Great Hall, and a red lion banner with gold trim was also unfurled behind the main seat... Clearly, these were the colors of the Gryffindor House.

This year's House Cup finally went to Gryffindor, with Ravenclaw finishing second by more than twenty points, and Hufflepuff coming in third by a narrow margin.

As for Slytherin... they gloriously managed to squeeze into the top four with a near-zero score in single digits.

Because of this, Severus Snape was so angry that he didn't even attend the banquet.

Of course, if such a result is accompanied by some keywords, such as 'Hahl and his two companions are banned from receiving bonus points' and 'Ginny Weasley's Firebolt', then it will inevitably feel quite ironic to many people.

Especially for many students... at least for the vast majority of Eagle House students, this result is by no means fair.

In the previous Quidditch Match, Hermione Granger almost single-handedly repelled an attack by over a hundred Dementor; in last night's fierce battle, it was again Granger and her brother, who were also lovers, who stood up together to protect the entire Hogwarts...

But their principal didn't mention a word about these things.

Aside from presenting the House Cup to Gryffindor House and repeatedly reminding students who needed to take the two types of qualification exams to return to school before August 24th, Dumbledore, as usual, began announcing some precautions such as 'no magic can be cast outside of school during holidays'.

Professor Flitwick told the students at Eagle House to wait patiently for the principal's decision that morning, but they waited and waited at the dinner, only to be met with utter disregard.

This outcome has prompted the young eagles, who idolize Harry, to cry foul.

Admittedly, given the increasingly progressive mindset of the students at Eagle House, they wouldn't care about losing one or two House Cup, but this matter still needs to be addressed.

Harry and Hermione are heroes who saved the school, and it's their right to refuse extra points. But if the school uses Harry's past words as a pretext to not even acknowledge it, or even pretends that the 'saving the school' thing didn't exist, isn't that a bit petty?

To put it bluntly, where were you, the principal, when the school was in crisis?

However, when Terry Booth, Anthony Goldstein, and others tried to speak up for Harry stopped them with his eyes, as did other disgruntled students.

Since it was a dinner party, Harry had to give Albus Dumbledore face, so he appreciated the kindness of the Eagle House students, but there was really no need for them to openly question the headmaster on Harry's behalf.

Anyway... whether it's fair or not, the students themselves know the answer; there's no need to say too much.

Harry had already sensed that Albus Dumbledore's attitude was off, but he was too lazy to argue with him.

There's no need to argue over a momentary impulse. Albus Dumbledore might be a little angry, which is why he's been acting strangely these past few days. Harry can understand that.

As long as he doesn't actively create real trouble for himself, or deliberately delay his upcoming plans, then...

"In short, these are the important points for this year. Finally, I wish all the gentlemen and ladies a pleasant summer vacation." Just after Harry had reassured the students of Eagle House, Albus Dumbledore, sitting at the head of the table, had also finished his final summary.

But after a brief pause, he suddenly turned his serious gaze toward Hermione at Eagle House's desk!

"Furthermore, Miss Granger, the Ministry of Magic has informed me... that your use of a certain contraband item has exceeded its original limits, therefore you need to hand it over immediately after the banquet."

"This..." Hermione's expression froze upon hearing this, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

Of course she knew that Dumbledore was referring to the Time-Turner, but Professor Flitwick had clearly helped her apply for it through proper channels. How did it become a "contraband" in the headmaster's eyes?

Moreover... she never expected that Dumbledore would call her name and demand that she hand over her belongings during the banquet, with almost the entire school's faculty and students present!

At that moment, Hermione felt a little wronged as she looked at Dumbledore and the others scrutinizing her and listened to the whispers around her.

Yes, she did break her promise to Professor Flitwick by using the Time-Turner outside of class, including giving it to Harry, but in the end, it all led to good results!

Without the Time-Turner, how could Harry have cured Lupin's Feral Wolf Syndrome so quickly, and how could Luna Lovegood's father have been successfully rescued?

She and Harry clearly didn't use this thing to do anything inappropriate, so why did the headmaster...

"Hermione, it's okay, leave it to me."

Harry's gentle voice rang in Hermione's ears. He raised his hand and stroked the girl's neck, calming her down while easily snapping the chain with a slight pull and grabbing the Time-Turner.

After that, Harry Dumbledore. Although he smiled calmly, the entire Great Hall gradually fell silent under the influence of his inexplicable aura.

"Headmaster, is this what the Ministry of Magic wants us to return?" Harry toyed with the pocket watch-like pendant in his palm, then suddenly clenched his fist and crushed the Time-Turner into pieces!

Harry casually tossed away the crumbs in his hand and swept them lightly across his palm.

"Since it's a prohibited item, let's just destroy it. And please, Headmaster, tell them... I want to see if the Ministry of Magic dares to send me a letter of reprimand for this!"

To be honest, Harry wasn't planning on causing trouble tonight, but Albus Dumbledore really went too far.

Could it be that because he's been more agreeable these past two years, he's forgotten how exhilarating it felt to be verbally abused and berated by him back then?

He actually dared to put on airs like that and act like he was above Hermione?! He must be getting senile!

"Harry, you..." Dumbledore stared intently at the wreckage at Harry's feet, his face darkening involuntarily, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.

He did indeed want to take this opportunity to put Harry down, hoping to reduce Harry and Hermione's influence among the students; the last-minute change of the exam date, besides disrupting Harry's plans, also had this factor in mind.

Whether it's a practical exam in the History of Magic or Muggle Studies, the fewer students in the school the better when Harry takes it; ideally, no one should be paying attention.

But he hadn't expected Harry's reaction to be so strong!

Has this child become so easily overwhelmed that he can't even tolerate the slightest reasonable restraint anymore...?

"Albus!!" Just as Dumbledore was pondering a solution regarding Harry, a roar suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

Everyone turned to look at the entrance of the Great Hall, where a disheveled Hog's Head Inn owner with a pig-like face was striding toward the Great Hall.

"Ah, what are you doing here?" Dumbledore upon seeing this and unconsciously stood up.

The other deans beside him already knew the other's identity, so none of them thought to stand up and stop him, allowing the furious Aberforth Dumbledore to come straight to Dumbledore!

"What am I doing here? You bastard, how dare you ask?!"

BOOM!!

With a furious shout, Aberforth Dumbledore, who had completely lost his temper, suddenly swung his arm and punched Dumbledore in the nose!

The punch was extremely powerful; a cracking sound, as if the weight was too much, came from Dumbledore's nose!

His nose was broken, by Aberforth Dumbledore himself... and the second time.

Just like at Ariana Dumbledore Dumbledore's funeral, the enraged younger brother broke his own brother's nose.

Once, it was because of him that he lost his beloved Ariana Dumbledore; and now, it is because of him that he... has completely lost her!!

"Damn it! Do you even know that Ariana Dumbledore... she's completely immobilized!!"

"You... what did you say?! Aberforth..." Hearing Aberforth Dumbledore roar filled with tears, Dumbledore, whose nose was bleeding profusely, was immediately stunned.

His own sister, Ariana Dumbledore?

Could it be that the painting...

However, before he could find a chance to ask Aberforth Dumbledore about the situation, the latter had already been forcibly dragged away by the dean and other teachers who had rushed over.

"You bastard! Albus, you bastard!!"

As Aberforth Dumbledore walked further away, the insults continued unabated, while the students who had been caught off guard by this bombshell were now in complete disarray.

The last day of the school year ended in such a farcical manner, which probably caught many people off guard.

On this night, the physically and emotionally wounded Dumbledore and his brother returned to the Hog's Head Inn.

They sat together all night, staring at the portrait that was now completely 'dead,' and no one knew what they were thinking, nor did anyone know what happened between the two brothers afterward...

The next day, when Draco Malfoy, still unable to find his father, returned home, he was unaware that a dark veil, which had barely escaped from the Forbidden Forest, was quietly attaching itself to his school uniform robes and following him into the Malfoy Manor.

While the Malfoy family were having dinner, the 'black veil' quietly slipped into the Malfoy' mother's bedroom and spread out on the wall above her bed. Then it suddenly exploded and scattered into a line of blood-red cipher text!

"This... this is?!"

When the mistress, Narcissa Malfoy, returned to her bedroom, she was immediately startled by the blood-written words on the wall.

But after calming down, she became increasingly convinced that the words written in blood were real, and a burning desire for revenge gradually ignited in her eyes!

The most important person to you is dead. Harry Potter killed him with his own hands!

"Very well... Harry Potter, I want you to pay for my husband's life!!!"

(P. S. These two chapters are the end of this volume, so I'll be updating twice, totaling 5000 words. I'll make up for the missing 1000 words later.)

Also, don't worry too much about the Ground Bat at the end; it's just a way to advance the plot... I might add some secondary interpretations of Ground Bat when other plot points come up later.

Honestly, I didn't expect that Chamber and prisoner-themed story could generate over 400 chapters. Thinking about it, it's quite impressive (and a bit of filler).

Everyone probably knows I'm a contrarian; when I encounter an opinion I firmly believe in, I'll argue to the bitter end... like the Dursley family' guilt.

Therefore, this book can be considered a highly controversial work? Of course, this might just be me padding the list and bragging... after all, I haven't become popular enough to cause controversy.

Anyway, I'll just try to write a story according to my own ideas. In the process, I'll take the content of HP, break it down and recombine it, improve the JK setting, add my own elements, and that's about it.

So, I'm very grateful to all the readers who have followed me this far and have been understanding and supportive... Following my books is exhausting, and this has been mentioned by more than one website and more than one reader, so you've all really worked hard.

For the next volume, I'm thinking of changing the chapter title structure. We've already used this for over 500 chapters, and I'm getting tired of it... I wonder if you guys have reached your limit too~

In short, that's about it for the end-of-volume remarks. Next volume:

I, Harry, soar through the sky.

If you don't like the title of this volume, you can crowdfund it for me.

See you tomorrow, that's all~)

The author dedicates this book to commemorate his childhood (and of course, to the same age as me, Sanmiao).

He wasn't Ash Ketchum resets to zero every time he entered a new region; he was a powerful trainer recognized by the entire league.

He was not a foolish mortal who would be slaughtered by a divine beast man, but rather an agent of the gods who commanded legends.

He is not a dream-crusher who traveled for 23 years and only won the title of an unknown village, but the strongest king in the world, unmatched by anyone!

He's not just any Pokémon Trainer, he's a Pokémon Master!!!

Serena: So, what exactly are you trying to say?

Ash Ketchum: Ahem... Actually, all I wanted to say was, Serena, let's get married after I become the Champion!!!

May every dreamer achieve their dreams, for this is a story filled with love and dreams.

This book is harem-oriented, but it won't randomly collect characters.

It's still in its early stages, but the author is a very responsible and kind guy.

Not a Pokémon Trainer, but a Pokémon Master

Chapter 503 When Will the Two Britain Balls Rise to Prominence?

The warm and bright morning sunlight always manages to filter through the gaps in the curtains, casting dappled light and shadows into the bedroom.

Urged on by his precise internal biological clock, the boy reluctantly opened his eyes, but when he saw the sleeping girl in his arms, a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.
