"Harry Potter" Wrapped Up in Ten Sentences / How to Ignore the Anti-Apparition Jinx

However, this scene of fatherly love and filial piety only made the middle-aged Potter feel more and more helpless.

Envy and resentment towards the father-son relationship is one aspect, but in addition, the middle-aged Potter also discovers that he has been completely controlled by the 14-year-old version of Harry.

It was just an impulsive question, and the situation has deteriorated to this point...

The middle-aged Potter now understood that after their team was unintentionally separated, everyone must have encountered a lot of problems.

These issues will become hidden dangers after they reunite. It's fine if you don't bring them up, but once you do, these hidden dangers will erupt. And 14-year-old Harry will also add fuel to the fire, constantly exposing more and more weaknesses in himself and his companions!

"It's alright, I'm easy to talk to. You can also ask other people about their situations... like why your wife is so angry~" Harry chuckled as he continued asking questions, his voice sounding like a devil's temptation.

"Alright... let's get down to business. What do you want in return for releasing those two children?"

To be honest, middle-aged Potter is now really too afraid to accept the other party's "kindness" again. Who knows what kind of juicy gossip will be revealed about his wife?!

His attitude of prioritizing the "big picture" and being eager to get things done made the middle -Ginny's face darken.

'Harry... never mind...'

She had originally intended to tell her husband what had happened, but now it seemed she should worry about the children first...

"Very good, that's the attitude for negotiation!" Harry nodded in satisfaction, then his expression suddenly changed. "I want all five of you to hand over all your memories at the same time! If you agree, I'll release these two troublemakers and use the Time-Turner to send you back to your original timeline, ending this farce completely!"

"This..." The middle-aged Potter was once again caught in a dilemma, and unconsciously looked at the middle-aged Hermione.

He was used to this; whenever he encountered something he couldn't solve or couldn't make up his mind, he would push it onto Hermione to handle.

As for Hermione, now that she's middle-aged, she's long since gotten used to it.

In school, she had two main characters to manage; after Potter got married in middle age, she had to manage Ginny as well; and now Draco Malfoy has become a new character to manage...

This is like a 5v5 match where the middle-aged Hermione not only takes care of the chickens, wards, and birds from front to back, but also has to fight all over the map, including the minion waves, river, jungle, and everything else. She almost does the work of the whole team by herself.

But what about the remaining four? Forget about getting them to team up; they can barely even last-hit minions in lane!

"Your demands are far too unreasonable; we can't possibly agree!" Receiving her companion's pleading look, the middle-aged Hermione stepped forward decisively. "Besides, you're not entirely confident of victory either. There's something you might not know... we didn't come with five people, but six! We have another companion, and she's currently on standby with another Time-Turner ..."

"Ms. Granger Weasley, stop pretending," Harry interrupted Hermione's ramblings. "Ever since you entered the nursing home, your every move has been under my surveillance. You don't have a sixth person. The one you're talking about must be a woman named Delphi. She must have stolen your Time-Turner, otherwise you wouldn't have come to me in such a desperate situation!"

"Well... alright, the truth is what you said." Seeing that the other party had seen through her lie so easily, the middle-aged Hermione simply stopped pretending, but her attitude remained assertive.

"But don't think this has nothing to do with you! That Delphi's full name is Delphi Riddle. She's Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange Lestrange's daughter, and all she wants is to bring her father back!" The middle-aged Hermione threatened Harry sternly. "She now has Draco's fully functional Time-Turner and can travel freely to any time. If we let her continue like this, she will wreak havoc on the past, present, and future!"

"But what does that have to do with me?" Harry shook his head indifferently. "You should know the rules for using these two Time-Turner very well. Delphi will inevitably cross spacetime as well as time itself, so after she escapes from this spacetime, she'll at most go back to your spacetime. So even if she causes a lot of damage, so what? It'll just be your bad luck, it won't affect me at all."

"Hmph, you underestimate that woman's madness! She can return to our timeline, so why can't she travel back again?!" Middle-aged Hermione retorted sharply. "In this timeline, you are indeed incredibly powerful, even considered a leader capable of replacing Dumbledore and confronting Voldemort head-on. So do you think... she might travel back to a time before this, causing chaos in your past, or even making your existence disappear completely?!"

"Give up. No matter how you try to persuade me, it won't work, because I don't care at all." Harry shook his head indifferently and disdainfully. "Changing the past in my timeline isn't something a mere Time-Turner and some unknown Dark Lord's daughter can accomplish!"

Honestly, the threat posed by a middle-aged Hermione is both laughable and pathetic to Harry.

Delphi Riddle, does she want to change her past in this timeline?

That's great! You should call her over right away; you'd love to have her!

She'd better start stirring things up from the beginning; if she's really that good, she could just travel back to before July 31, 1980, and kill off her unborn self!

Unfortunately, she simply couldn't do it!!

Chapter 743, Ten Sentences (End) <Harry Potter>

If the middle-aged Potter and their contemporaries could still worry about whether their own timeline would be disrupted, then Harry didn't even have the right to worry...

Because in his current timeline, everything he experienced in the past is tightly bound by the time loop, making it impossible to destroy or change!

His parents will inevitably be killed by Voldemort, Sirius will inevitably go to Azkaban, and he himself will certainly be packed up by Albus Dumbledore and sent to the Dursley family...

These are facts that Harry cannot change, and no external force can break them!

Because... the key to changing these 'facts' lies not in external forces, but in the Ouroboros inside Harry!

That was a curse placed by some damned god, and no one but Harry himself could break it...

So the current situation is actually quite ironic. What was originally a terrible fate has actually done Harry a big favor, allowing him to not worry at all about Delphi doing anything reckless.

This is precisely why Harry seems overly concerned about things in other dimensions, and unusually attentive to outsiders like the middle-aged Potter.

After all... if you can't change the tragedy that happened to you, then perhaps you can try to change yourself in a different way...

"Alright, can you make a decision now?" Harry gave the Ouroboros in his head a little grumbling, and then issued an ultimatum to the five transmigrated individuals. "I've made my stance clear: I don't care what happens to the past of my world, but you have to! So if you think there's still time, then let's keep dragging this out!"

"Well... Harry, you decide." Faced with the incredibly assertive attitude of the 14-year-old boy, the middle-aged Hermione could only shake her head helplessly, admitting her defeat.

As the de facto leader of the team, the middle-aged Potter, after looking at his helpless best friend, his dejected wife, his still irritable best friend, and his beloved who was reminiscing about his deceased wife, could only sigh and reluctantly lower his head to Harry.

"We promised... we can entrust you with the memories of all five of us..."

In the end, the middle-aged Potter compromised, as did the others.

Faced with Harry's overwhelming power and complete control of the situation, they had no other choice.

The memory reading process went smoothly overall, and since Harry was mainly reading the memories of these people during their time at Hogwarts until they finally defeated Voldemort, it didn't take too long to organize them.

By comparing details in the memories of the five people, Harry was able to determine whether they had used Occlumency to lie, thus ensuring the accuracy of the information he obtained.

In this way, he finally became as familiar as possible with the basic situation of that time and space, as well as some of the events that occurred during those crucial years.

At the same time, after fully analyzing these memories, Harry also came to a conclusion—the memories he possessed should represent the true original content of <Harry Potter>!

So, the timeline where this group of middle-aged people lives is actually the pure timeline of the original story?

That makes sense. After all, there are no time travelers like myself in that timeline, so naturally there wouldn't be many seemingly plausible but ultimately flawed changes.

There are none of those things, like fan-made content or out-of-character (OOC) character designs.

This was indeed a surprise for Harry, but it also left him feeling slightly helpless, regretting that he might have known the plot sooner...

If Harry had known these plot points when he traveled back in time... even if it was during his first year, he wouldn't have had so many troublesome experiences later on.

Believe it or not, he could finish writing Harry Potter in less than ten sentences?

The key to the first year is Quirrell. As long as you take the initiative to go to Albus Dumbledore and say that you get a headache whenever you see Quirrell, Albus Dumbledore will naturally and easily deal with this possessed traitor.

The key to the second year is the diary. As long as you expose Lucius Malfoy's attempt to shift the blame at Flourish and Blotts, and then hand the diary over to Albus Dumbledore, telling him that seeing this lousy notebook gives you a headache, the school year's plot will be over before it even begins.

The key to the third year is Peter Pettigrew. The Harry Potter in the original books is a complete idiot; how could he let this guy escape? He should just take the Marauder's Map to Albus Dumbledore and let Albus Dumbledore see the rat's real name with his own eyes. Maybe that could even clear Sirius's name!

The key to the fourth year was the Fake Moody. It didn't matter if his name was thrown into the Goblet of Fire; he simply forfeited after the first match started. Then he told Albus Dumbledore that he saw both 'Barty Crouch' and 'Alastor Moody's' names side-by-side on the Marauder's Map. Problem solved!

The key to the fifth year is Occlumency. If Sirius is lucky, he should have been released without charge by now. But even if he is still a wanted criminal, it doesn't matter. As long as he studies Occlumency well and stops messing around with the Severus Snape, he will be fine in the end!

I must add a point here: if Rat had been successfully captured in the third year, Voldemort wouldn't have been found so easily, Barty Crouch Jr. Crouch Jr. wouldn't have been rescued in the fourth year, and the fourth, fifth years, and the subsequent series of terrible events wouldn't have happened!

Finally, the key to Years Six and Seven is the Horcrux. Since we know the locations of all the Horcrux, we can just use a plausible excuse to guide Albus Dumbledore. And if everything goes smoothly, Voldemort would still be hiding in Albania by now.

As an aside, the destruction of Horcrux could have begun as early as the second year after the diary was handed in.

And then... and then Harry Potter ended, what's left?

In short, the original plot is of little reference value to Harry, but it's not entirely useless; at least it can give Harry a little more confidence.

For example, since Voldemort was able to have a child with that madwoman, it means that his resurrected body is no different from a normal person's body. Therefore, it is definitely feasible for Harry to use snake blood to deal with him.

Of course, besides this positive affirmation, Harry also had quite a few things he wanted to criticize.

The Malfoy family was naturally the first to be affected. They were a bunch of fair-weather friends who had done all sorts of bad things, yet they still managed to have a peaceful end. What kind of far-left plot is this?!

A family of three like them can enjoy all the riches and luxuries of life in harmony and happiness. How can Harry, a nuclear warhead who thinks he's destined for the deepest hell, possibly bear this?

Then there's Potter, the middle-aged man experiencing a midlife crisis, who's also the protagonist of the original story... which makes Harry want to curse in various ways.

In short, aside from his courage in the face of danger and his passable Defense Against the Dark Arts, this guy's performance as the protagonist is absolutely terrible.

Looking at this guy's performance during his seven years at Hogwarts (actually six), it's fair to say he lacked both intelligence and emotional intelligence. He always wore a perpetually bitter and resentful expression, and on top of that, he didn't study properly!

Honestly, fate is imposed on you by others, but knowledge you acquire is yours to keep... Don't you even understand such a simple truth?

If he had put in even a little effort, so many people around him wouldn't have died!

So Harry definitely needs to get this off his chest, and he'll definitely have to talk to him about it face-to-face!

What's wrong with the original work? What's wrong with the main character?

I'm criticizing the original work and the main character!

Chapter 744 How to Ignore the Anti-Apparition Jinx

Harry temporarily settled the five-person group, along with two mischievous kids, who had traveled from another time and space, in the nursing home.

Of course, although it was called "settling them in," in reality they confiscated their wands and put them under strict surveillance.

They are absolutely not allowed to leave the nursing home, and even leaving their rooms is severely restricted.

Of course, some people don't actually care about this kind of surveillance, and even enjoy it, because they don't want their husbands (wives) to leave their sight and take the opportunity to reminisce about their youthful days with others.

Hmm... their ways of thinking are so similar, they really are siblings!

Of course, there were also people who had been protesting from the beginning, such as the middle-aged Malfoy, who kept clamoring for Harry to let him leave the nursing home, and even frequently instigated the middle-aged Potter to plead for him.

Most recently, the middle-aged Potter even approached Sirius for help, bringing up the fact that the middle-aged Malfoy was Sirius's nephew.

Haha, have you no shame?

Honestly, Harry found it quite disgusting that middle-aged Potter would actually agree to plead for middle-aged Malfoy.

In their past memories, these two had been mortal enemies since they first entered school. But in the years after the Battle of Hogwarts, they not only met again and buried the hatchet, but now, because of the friendship between their children and their shared sense of being in the same boat, they have gradually become each other's white moonlight and cinnabar mole!

And why did the middle-aged Potter keep calling him "Draco"?

This nickname is absolutely outrageous!

Harry made it clear that he would never use the Christian name to refer to the Malfoy family!

Besides, how could Harry not know what the middle-aged Malfoy was really thinking?

Ha! Who does this guy think he is? Just because he wants to see Astoria Greengrass, Harry is obligated to arrange it for him?

Harry isn't a charity worker, so he wouldn't be so overflowing with compassion.

He not only won't let middle-aged Malfoy get his way, but even his promise to the five time travelers to send them back to their original timeline was mostly for his own purposes.

During this time, Harry imprisoned these people under the pretext of checking the authenticity of their memories, but in reality, he was making intensive preparations and secretly arranging all the matters for his journey to the other dimension.

The damaged Time-Turner was also borrowed by Nicolas Flamel. Harry's teacher said he wanted to study it and try to repair it to see if he could break through the five-minute time limit.

During this time, Harry also roughly planned out what he needed to do and finalized the choices of his companions.

This was, after all, a personal and willful decision made by Harry, so in the end, those who went with him were all true friends.

Hermione and Luna Lovegood definitely had to come along; they wouldn't let Harry act alone, and they also didn't want to miss this opportunity to witness another chapter of 'their' lives.

Also accompanying Harry were the Dragon and the Zouwu, Harry's most important Fantastic Beasts companions, who of course were also going along this time.

Especially Norberta, who hadn't had much freedom to play around before due to its lack of legal status, but this time in the alternate dimension, there were far fewer restrictions.

And so, all the preparations were proceeding in an orderly manner. However, one day, Nicolas Flamel suddenly sent House-elf to Harry, inviting him to meet at the alchemy laboratory.

"Master, do you need my assistance with the transmutation, or has there been progress in your research on the Time-Turner?" Harry asked curiously after the master and student met.

"It's a rather unique achievement, but mainly I have something I want to talk to you about," Nicolas Flamel asked with a kind smile. "Doctor, are you planning to go to another dimension?"

"I do have that plan," Harry admitted readily. "I've always been curious about that timeline, and I... find it hard to let go of many things that happened there."

He didn't lie to his teacher, because Harry knew that besides Hermione and Luna Lovegood, the only other person who could see his obsession with another timeline was Nicolas Flamel.

Harry also believed that the reason he called him over was definitely not to stop him.

"I knew you'd be thinking of that." Nicolas Flamel nodded slightly, her face still bearing an encouraging smile. "It would be good to go and see it. After all, that kind of alternate dimension is truly amazing. If it were me, I might want to go and see it too. So, when do you plan to leave?"

"Soon, we'll definitely leave before the Easter holidays end," Harry replied. "With the Time-Turner, if all goes well, we might even be back in less than a day."

"That being said, what you're planning to do probably involves a lot of danger, right?" Nicolas Flamel seemed to understand Harry's thoughts, and her tone gradually became serious. "So, Perenelle and I have an idea that might be of great help to you."

"A concept?"

"You've been researching Apparition on House-elf before, haven't you?" Nicolas Flamel explained softly. "Aren't you curious why they can ignore the Anti-Apparition Jinx's limitations?"

"Indeed," Harry nodded. "Although I've read some information that says House-elf are bound by a stronger magical contract and must obey their masters' commands, thus allowing them to disregard certain restrictions, I don't think that's actually the case."
