Becoming One

In the Britain, near the Arctic Circle, on a clear summer day, it can still be light at nine o'clock.

The same applies to the mirror world.

At 8 o'clock, the sun was still hanging in the northeast.

A nearly 100-foot-long dragon, resembling a lion with wings sprouting from its ribs and covered in red scales, gleams in the equally crimson sunlight.

Before it stood two nearly identical boys, one with a cold demeanor and the other with a sunny disposition.

"The part missing from my memory is the reason you insisted on coming here." Harry from the Mirror World frowned.

"The Resurrection Stone, and even using it to resurrect Mom, will require your help."

"Only I can bring my mother back to life."

"But I'm not strong enough," Harry said frankly.

He is confident, even in his negative aspects, he is still himself.

The mother's resurrection is the Momotaro rice ball that subdues the Nether Dragon.

Do you need me?

Harry from the Mirror World pondered for a moment, "You wouldn't lie."

"What do I need to do?" Harry from the Mirror World sighed again.

As the hostility vanished, the Nether Dragon, which had bared its fangs and stared intently at Harry, turned into black smoke and disappeared into the horizon.

"Come back, me!" Harry stretched out his right hand, and Harry in the Mirror World smiled helplessly and stretched out his left hand.

As their fingers touched and they accepted each other in their hearts, a clicking sound rang out.

Everything around was like shattered glass, revealing jagged, dark cracks.

Harry opened his eyes, and he was back at the Black House, the Black House in the mirror world.

He looked at the full-length mirror opposite him, where Ron was pressing his face against it, seemingly trying to find him.

Fifteen minutes earlier, Ron was startled to see Harry walk straight into the mirror.

Even more absurdly, he looked for a long time but couldn't see Harry's reflection in the mirror.

After repeatedly turning down Sirius's attempts to come in, Ron finally couldn't take it anymore.

He pressed his entire face against the mirror, trying to break through the invisible barrier and go in like Harry.

Then, a warm and delicate hand pressed down on his head and pushed him away.

Just as he was about to pull out his wand in fright, a familiar voice brought him back to his senses.

"Ron, didn't I tell you not to stand in front of the mirror? Just wait for me to come back in the room." Harry wiped his hand, which had just pushed Ron's face, with disgust.

"I was just worried about you!" Ron grinned and came closer, seemingly forgetting that Harry had just complained about him.

"Goodbye, thankfully you didn't pop up when I was talking to myself."

"Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have the patience to listen to my negative comments," Harry said irritably.

This matter is related to his mother's resurrection. If it weren't for Ron, and the fact that there were other ways to deal with this failure—like asking Ryan to take him under his wing— Harry would probably have wanted to strangle this troublemaker.

"Ah, you didn't use that? I'll summon the Phoenix to defeat the Nether Dragon!"

"In a world opposite to reality, two Harry stand motionless, wands in hand. One summons the legendary Nether Dragon. The other summons a golden Phoenix that has never been seen before!"

A great war is about to break out!

But in the end, love triumphed over hate! Justice triumphed over evil!

"That's great! You just said a few words and it was all settled!" Ron said with a sullen face, as if his birthday present had been canceled.

"Hey! No matter what, it's still me!"

"No matter how bad I am, there are some things I will still care about."

"Plus, I know I don't lie."

"I knew it! Why was the first task so difficult?" Harry breathed a sigh of relief.

Meanwhile, in the basement of Smith Castle.

Kate suddenly frowned when she saw the image projected onto the stone wall by a projector powered by Peter Pettigrew's human side.

"Task?"

"Wait a minute, isn't this why the Harry Potter Alternate World Tour we've been watching suddenly had a terrible ending?!"

"This so-called mission must have been your doing, you little brat!" Kate squinted.

Penelope wasn't too concerned; she just wanted to watch the show.

But Kate's gaze only made her clear her throat and pretend to glare at Ryan in return.

"Yeah, that's so boring. Just a few lines of dialogue and Harry just surrendered for no reason!" Penelope complained after thinking for a moment.

"This is only the second mission, and Harry fought Harry before, but I haven't finished editing it yet."

"This is a preview version; the part you are looking at is the dialogue scene."

"I thought Harry would discover later that the Harry in that memory didn't include me, and those missions."

"But Ron destroyed them."

"Doraemon: Summoner Kingdom was originally scheduled to be released on the 25th in Diagon Alley."

"Who knew that Ron would actually get the privilege of watching first?"

"This wasn't something I pulled off behind the scenes. There are only three spots in the entire Europe for our Skywalker Alchemy Workshop. Who knew Ron would come early—" Ryan said, telling a lie that even he himself couldn't believe.

Just as Kate's round face began to puff up and her eyes widened even more, thankfully, the image on the stone wall caught their attention.

"Harry, are you really sure you can do it?"

"We're not going to run into that magical creature from that world again—well, the Mirror Beasts, are we?" Ron looked nervously at Harry was walking towards the full-length mirror again.

"The Mirror Beasts spend most of their time inside the mirrors of the Mirror World. They only awaken from the mirrors of the Mirror World when sentient beings, that is, us from the real world, intrude."

"In doing so, I did not actually enter the Mirror World; I merely used it as a transit point."

"Let me see, the Burrow is in Ginny," Harry muttered to himself as he reached into the mirror as if touching something.

"How do you know so much?" Ron looked at Harry suspiciously.

"The information I gave him was that he was the first truly intelligent being in the Mirror World."

"The information from the Mirror World is drawn to him like iron to a magnet."

"And I, who have become one with myself, have also taken control of this information."

"Even now, I can control how I walk in the Mirror World in the real world." Harry turned to look at Ron, his hands still groping in the mirror.

"Ron, are you sure Ginny is resting in her room at this time?" Harry looked at Ron hesitantly.

Although he was a little rusty during his first time traveling through the mirror world in the real world, he wasn't so bad as to not be able to find it.

"Certainly!"

"Ginny stayed in her bedroom all day and didn't go out at all." Ron's words were slightly tinged with anger because of Harry's suspicion.

Harry wanted to retort, but then, "Wait, right here. But I..."

Harry started backing away.

As his hands left the mirror, a red-haired girl in a golden dress fell into Harry's arms.
