Wanting to See Your Family Isn't Wrong... / Postwar Confessions... and Gifts ...

But James stood firmly in her way, shielding his wife and children with his body, wanting to be the last barrier between them and the Dark Lord!

"This is all coming to an end... That child must die today. If you dare to stand in my way, I'll kill you all too!"

Without further examining Harry's 'body,' Voldemort, feeling confident of victory, fiercely raised his wand at the Potter family three!

"Ah..."

"Avada Kedavra!!!"

A dazzling green light pierced the night sky in an instant, and was completely reflected in the eyes of baby Harry Potter...

But the green light didn't shoot towards the baby; instead, it slammed heavily into Voldemort, who was about to wreak havoc!

Chapter 811 Wanting to see family is not wrong...

The events unfolded so suddenly that neither James nor Lily had time to react, and they were unaware of why Voldemort's life had been abruptly ended by the Killing Curse.

The green light entered the Dark Lord's body without any obstruction. If it were an ordinary person, they would have died silently by now. But Voldemort, who once created Horcrux, did not deserve such a peaceful finale.

His entire body was instantly riddled with cracks from the energy of slaughter. His magic began to dissipate, his body began to disintegrate, until finally he exploded completely in front of the Potter family, turning into scattered dust!

"Ughhhhhh!!"

Struck head-on by the Killing Curse, Voldemort suffered unimaginable pain. Even as nothing more than a soul enveloped in magic, he couldn't help but let out a series of agonizing screams before writhing and vanishing into nothingness...

"No... no!!"

At the same time, near the church in the valley, a woman's heart-wrenching cries also rang out.

That was the heartbroken Augurey, Delphi.

Just as Harry was dueling Voldemort, Delphi was also captured by Hermione and Luna Lovegood and taken to the church in Godric's Hollow. There, under the restriction of Anti-Apparition Jinx, he was forced to engage in a fierce battle with the two women who wielded Twin-Core Wands.

The outcome of the battle was self-evident: although Delphi was strong enough to easily defeat the middle-aged Harry of this timeline, her resistance was ultimately futile against a wand with ten times the magical power of the Twin-Core Wands.

In the end, she risked blowing up her own wand to barely escape the church, but before she could stop her father from repeating his mistakes, she witnessed Voldemort being reduced to ashes by the Avada Kedavra...

"Why... why are you doing this?!" she screamed angrily, ignoring the spells flying behind her, and scrambling to get closer to her father.

At that moment, she even forgot that she could Apparition, and it was as if she had also lost the ability to fly.

"What's going on here... has absolutely nothing to do with you! Why are you meddling in this?!"

"This is the karma you created yourself. If you hadn't been so determined to change the past, we wouldn't have ended up in this mess." Hermione suddenly appeared in front of Delphi, her Holly Wand already locked onto her.

Behind her, Luna Lovegood had also blocked her escape route, raising her own Ginkgo Wand, which she had received from Harry.

"Damn it... damn it! Don't think you can make me submit like this! To be worthy of him, I've studied magic day and night, all to make the most skilled wizard of all time proud of me! Bombarda!!"

A powerful surge of magic coursed around Delphi, creating a turbulent storm. However, under the suppression of the two women's Twin-Core Wands, the whirlwind only spun once before dissipating into a wisp of smoke.

"Full-Speed Knockback!" *2

The two beams of light, equally matched, struck Delphi's body simultaneously, slamming her heavily to the ground, leaving her with no strength to get up.

"Why... why? I just wanted to get to know my father... what did I do wrong?!"

"You did nothing wrong..." Faced with Delphi's questioning, Hermione sighed softly and shook her head. "On the contrary, we all admire what you did. As children ourselves, you are far superior to Harry Potter's children."

"But we're on different sides," Luna Lovegood chimed in. "You want to see your father, but doesn't Harry also want to see his parents? Besides, you don't just want a simple meeting, do you?"

Compared to Hermione, Luna Lovegood probably understands Harry and Delphi's feelings better at this moment, because she has also lost loved ones.

Putting myself in her shoes, if she could see her mother again, she probably wouldn't be able to let go of her feelings either...

"You..." Upon hearing the two women's words, Delphi, who had initially tried to struggle, gradually became despondent and heartbroken.

"Kill me..." Delphi said, heartbroken, as he watched Voldemort vanish into the distance.

But Hermione and Luna Lovegood both shook their heads.

"Then take away my thoughts, erase my memories! Please... let me completely forget who I am!!"

"No, there's no need for that anymore." Hermione shook her head regretfully. "Just look at yourself..."

"I... why is this happening?" Delphi looked down and found that her body was gradually transforming into a strange illusion.

She seemed to vanish from this world, as if she didn't exist.

"The future has been changed..." Luna Lovegood said in an ethereal voice, "And it should be the change Harry wanted."

"This is the effect of time. Do you remember the Prophecy you made yourself... that the unseen child murdered his father?" Hermione sighed softly. "If the child's father is gone, then the child will also disappear. Augurey, I regret to inform you... in this altered, entirely new future, the Dark Lord will no longer exist, and you... were never born!"

"No! This can't be! I... Father!!!"

Delphi struggled to her feet, reaching out towards the direction Voldemort had gone, but her body could no longer support her, and she collapsed into nothingness in the dark night sky.

And all she left behind was the Time-Turner that had caused all this trouble...

"It's over just like that..." Hermione sighed with regret.

"Yes, it's all over." Luna Lovegood glanced silently at the Potter family in the distance and suggested softly, "Let them have some time alone. He should enjoy this encounter."

"Hmm... let's go set up the tent then. He'll be exhausted when he gets back, so this will give him a good rest." Hermione nodded with a smile, but a hint of coldness crept into her smile. "While he's resting, we can also do some other things... like, take care of those four Death Eater!"

"Indeed, if we deal with them, the future will be completely changed!"

Having finished their battle, the two women quickly reached an agreement. Instead of disturbing Harry and the Potters' reunion, they quietly left Godric's Hollow.

When they returned to the Potter family' house, the couple stared wide-eyed, still shaken, as Harry struggled to his feet.

A large hole was blasted through the chest of his robe by a curse, and amidst the charred remains, blood continued to flow, making him look extremely pitiful.

But regardless, he survived!

And he survived a direct hit from the Avada Kedavra!!

Chapter 812 Post-War Confessions... and Gifts

"Child... are you alright?!"

After a tense and fierce battle, Lily reacted immediately, grabbing the baby and rushing to Harry, so anxious that she didn't know what to do.

"I... I'm fine."

Harry was momentarily stunned when he met Lily's concerned gaze.

In the other person's eyes, Harry discovered that long-lost emotion that belonged only to a mother—it wasn't worry about a stranger who had protected their family, but rather a clear concern for her own child!

"Are you really alright? No... how could you be alright? You were clearly under that curse, how are you? Are you feeling unwell? Please tell me quickly!"

Seeing Lily's extremely flustered state, Harry gave a rather awkward, wry smile.

If it weren't for the fact that the horrific wound on his chest had gradually healed and had stopped bleeding, his mother from the other dimension would have been in a terrible state of panic.

He felt very nervous. Before, whether facing Snape or Dumbledore, Harry could tell them his true identity without any concealment. But now that Lily recognized him here, he didn't know what to say to her.

Ultimately, he wasn't the real Harry Potter; his experiences couldn't replace the other's, and it's unknown whether those experiences would cause the Potters even more heartache.

But in any case, seeing that they were all safe and sound, Harry could finally put his mind at ease.

"You really worried me to death! Kid, I can't believe you survived... that kind of curse! That's amazing, that's truly amazing..."

Compared to his mother, James was a little slower to realize certain things, but he had now roughly figured out the origins of the boy in front of him who looked exactly like him when he was young and had the same color eyes as his wife.

He was now excitedly patting Harry's shoulder, feeling both lingering fear and excitement, almost unable to express himself in words.

Just now, it was his own son who personally killed that terrifying Dark Lord!

If we were to judge this matter in James Potter's style, it would probably be...

That's so cool!

"I'm probably the person in the world who needs to be least afraid of the Killing Curse. When I was his age, I was hit by the Killing Curse once, and I survived by sheer luck." Harry looked gently at the child in Lily's arms, his tone full of relief and gratitude. "It was my mother who fought back against the Killing Curse with love. Her love protected me and allowed me to grow up to where I am today."

In fact, the reason Harry was able to ignore the Killing Curse was because he was a living Horcrux, and to a certain extent, he was immortal.

However, such a mood-killing thing is clearly not suitable to be explained now.

Pretending to be well-behaved and obedient in front of parents, only reporting good news and not bad, is something every China child is good at, and Harry is no exception.

"Do you love them... my child? I'm sure you love your parents very much too." Lily's eyes were red, and she could hardly hide the emotion on her face. "Otherwise, none of this would have happened today..."

As intelligent as she was, she could certainly understand what would have happened to her family if Harry hadn't shown up today.

The story of a mother using love to fight back against the Killing Curse for her child is actually about what happened to the child in her arms!

So, if he hadn't still deeply loved himself and James even after growing up, how could he have possibly gone back in such a fantastical way to save them?

After considering all this, Lily seemed to remember something else and hurriedly asked with concern, "By the way, child, what are you doing now...?"

"My last name Granger now," Harry replied with a smile, as if he knew what she was going to ask. "My adoptive parents are ordinary people. They've been very good to me. Not only did they accept me, a wizard of unknown origin, but they're also willing to marry their daughter to me. In just one more year, when I turn sixteen, they'll be officially my parents-in-law!"

"Ha, that's really great~" Lily was originally feeling sad about Harry's hardships as he grew up, but she burst into laughter after Harry suddenly changed the subject.

"You're moving fast! Back in seventh grade, James and I didn't even start dating until then. I never imagined you'd be getting married already."

"Granger, I'm quite curious now, what kind of girl is she that could make you fall for her so early?" James raised an eyebrow at Harry, his eyes secretly glancing towards the street corner.

They were certainly aware of the commotion over there, and even saw several figures fighting.

Based on James's guess, he figured Harry must have brought his fiancée along, but there seemed to be quite a few girls at the street corner, so he wasn't sure which one was the 'Granger' Harry was talking about.

"She's a wizard from an ordinary background, very smart and beautiful, and always top of her class in every exam..." Harry looked at Lily with a smile in his eyes, "Just like you~"

"Really? You're so lucky!" Lily asked with a beaming smile. "And what else? Have you been doing well all this time?"

"I think it's pretty good," Harry nodded slightly. "My grades are also quite good, I'm probably doing well in Potions, and my professor, though young, is very talented and has always been very kind to me..."

"The young Potions Professor ...isn't that...?" James's face immediately darkened, clearly understanding Harry's implied meaning.

"James, when you're having a good time, you shouldn't think about things that will spoil the mood, okay?" Lily quickly advised him.

"I know, Lily, but...it's a really complicated feeling," James said, pursing his lips. "No matter what he does to make amends, I can never forgive him!"

"It's alright, he never intended to ask for forgiveness." Harry shook his head gently. "I was just stating my situation. At least to me, he was a very good teacher."

The reason Harry brought up Snape at this time was not because he intended for the Potters to forgive each other, but simply because he hoped they could at least forgive each other unilaterally.

"Um... maybe I can hold the baby?" Looking at the infant so close to him, Harry suddenly had an idea. "Also, would you mind if I left something on myself for him?"

"Of course!" Lily quickly handed the baby to Harry.

"Kid, why would we mind something like that?" James nodded encouragingly with a smile.

The boy before them was their child; James and Lily had already reached a consensus on this, and naturally, they trusted Harry implicitly.

"That's good."

After obtaining the Potters' approval, Harry took a Sorcerer's Stone from his ring and poured almost all of his magic into it.

Then, he used one of the edges of the Sorcerer's Stone to draw a clear Lightning Mark on the baby's arm!

"Wow!"

The baby cries out loudly in pain, and at the same time, a special force is subtly merging with his body...

Chapter 813 He has always needed you

The gift-giving process went relatively smoothly overall, and Harry finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the Lightning Mark gradually blend into the baby's skin.

"Child, are you alright?!" Upon seeing this, Harry's mother, Lily, quickly stepped forward to support Harry with a face full of concern.

"I'm fine, here's the baby back. I'm sorry... I hurt the little one a bit." Harry forced a tired smile and carefully handed the baby back to the other person with a hint of apology.

"Good child, please don't say that!" Lily shook her head gratefully and with heartache. "We're so grateful to you right now, and... we really feel ashamed."

"Yes, we're the parents, it's my job to protect you and Mom, but I have no way to defeat that guy! In the end, you have to risk your life for us..."

James was now filled with self-blame and a deep sense of powerlessness, hating himself for not having the strength to properly protect his wife and children.

Harry looked noticeably weaker, which was perfectly normal. He had already fought that wretched Dark Lord to the point of exhaustion, and then left young Harry with some vital power; his body must have endured a considerable strain...

"Consider it a small gift from me to him; he might need it someday," Harry said with a smile, shaking his head reassuringly. "I'm just a little tired; it's really nothing serious."
