The Jungfrau in the Alps, was snapped in half after an "earthquake".

From that moment on, the girl from the Alps became a cripple from the Alps.

Despite the severity of the damage, the Switzerland Ministry of Magic, known for its stubbornness, remained completely silent, a complete surprise.

It seems like this is just a small matter.

It really was just a small matter.

Didn't Minister Lancel already say that?

Fortunately, the earthquake didn't occur in Bern, Zurich, or Geneva... How lucky!

Besides, this incident also resolved the issue of the Giant, so the benefits outweighed the drawbacks.

Indeed, Minister Lancel repeatedly comforted himself in this way, in order to achieve a self-numbing effect.

But behind the scenes, Ministry of Magic officials often noticed that their Minister seemed to have gone mad.

I leaned closer and eavesdropped for a few moments, and wow, he was loudly cursing the Great British Empire in a rare Romansh dialect.

What Muggle prince? A coup is inevitable sooner or later; the Empress Dowager at the Buckingham Palace will definitely make a "Western tour";

The news of the Dark Moe Lord's resurrection... If it's fake, I hope it's real; if it's real, I hope... it gets even worse.

There were even terms like "devil" and "king of demons"... I don't know who they were subtly insulting.

What? You're insulting Stark?

I dare not say anything recklessly... That would be suicidal!

Didn't you see that Jungfrau turned into Married Woman's Peak, and then, during a phase opposition, became a crippled peak?

If Stark were to come to Zurich, wouldn't he become the one who dies in Zurich?

However, upon closer reflection, there was some truth to what my minister had said.

Since Grindelwald and Voldemort, a whole host of people have emerged around the world claiming to be successors to the three Dark Lord.

The turtles in Black Lake are fewer in number than they are.

But most of the so-called Dark Lord are just keeping to themselves in their own little world; they haven't even ventured beyond their own country yet.

In such a competitive environment, how many people are more unscrupulous than Stark?

Paris, Venice, Vienna, the Alps?

This is only what we know; what we don't know, it's gone into the sea.

Compared to these so-called third-generation Dark Moe Lord, Stark really is as dark as the King of Kings!

It wasn't just the Switzerland Ministry of Magic that thought this way; even the International Confederation of Wizards, which had just received the news, thought so.

But the big shots remained calm.

They sat in Vienna, still badly damaged, and heard about what was happening in Switzerland... They felt nothing, and even thought about picking up their cups and taking a sip of hand-ground coffee.

Aside from a curt "oh," they seemed to have nothing else to say.

I was already mentally prepared, so what's there to be surprised about?

Heinrich, on the other hand, was itching to curse, but he didn't dare to actually do so. After all, the other two were still in Switzerland.

If this were to go to Geneva, wouldn't it become the Geneva Basin... turning into a mountainous area and a famous basin in Europe?

I dare not even think about it!

Those who think more deeply are already waiting to see which hothead will be the first to propose the "Act to Restrain Stark and Granger Actions".

But everyone present was shrewd, and no one wanted to be the one to stick their neck out.

Umbridge was even more eager for the two of them to never return to the United Kingdom.

The good news is that, compared to the uproar over the Vienna attacks, the Jungfrau collapse was kept relatively well-hidden.

At Dumbledore's behest, no one made a sound.

There weren't many wizards who witnessed this, and there aren't likely to be many people who know about it.

But the media, they're prone to jumping to conclusions and always want to create a big story.

The sudden collapse of Jungfrau doesn't seem like a natural phenomenon at all.

Those reporters were keeping a close eye on William and Hermione's schedule.

Whether the two went to the Alps is unknown, but everyone knows they went to Switzerland.

Just a few days ago, the Switzerland Ministry of Magic was still announcing that the Stark and Granger were coming... telling everyone to stay home and avoid going out.

Now that the Jungfrau has collapsed, the media, for the sake of traffic, are eager to pin the blame on the two of them.

For a time, true and false news filled the newspapers... It seemed that William and Hermione had done nothing but cause trouble everywhere.

William, the person involved, has been searching for Hermione in the Alps for several days.

Avalanches and landslides are unprecedented disasters. William must ensure that no Muggle are trapped.

Fortunately, Hermione acted quickly, and when Ygritte found her, she immediately led everyone to the Ministry of Magic.

The Auror ' advance evacuation of residents at the foot of the mountain reduced casualties to zero.

And those who died were all the Giant.

The people of the Golgomath tribe—except for a portion of the Giant who escaped, most were buried in caves.

At this rate of attrition, the Giant race probably won't last until William graduates before they perish.

Excavation work is underway, and the cave needs to be cleared. Perhaps there are still living Giant inside?

Those Giant corpses also need to be collected; what if Voldemort finds them and turns them all into Inferi?

Giant Inferi... are even more troublesome than Giant.

Minister Lancel, however, still wanted William to reconnect the broken section of the mountain.

What are you thinking about?

Do you really think William is Death himself? Even Dumbledore with the Elder Wand couldn't do that, okay?

Besides, the Jungfrau split in the middle, becoming White Tiger Cliff, can hardly be considered a natural landscape, right?

What more could you want?!

Amidst this busyness, the Durmstrang Magic Ship was finally ready to depart once again, embarking on its journey back to school.

This year's trip was truly worthwhile... First, we encountered Trene's boat halfway through the journey, and Karkaroff, suffering from road rage, wanted to race her.

An accident occurred involving a boat.

Having spent so long at Hogwarts, and then, due to the headmaster's questionable actions, being stranded in the typhoon zone for half a month.

Finally, he was chased by Dementor for several days, and then by Giant in Switzerland.

This is so damn exciting!

They could write and make a movie called "The Adventures of Durmstrang".

The ship was frozen, Ygritte found some Giant to work as barge haulers, and they quickly broke through the ice and pulled the ship out.

When it was time to leave, William brought Hermione to see him off.

He said softly:

"Voldemort will definitely send Death Eaters to kill you. If you can't handle it, go north of the North Sea and find an old man."

He can help you.

Sirius, standing on the shore, asked curiously, "Who is it? So powerful?"

Of course he's amazing! He's Dumbledore's best friend... Voldemort's ex-boyfriend.

But William didn't tell Sirius his name, he only instructed him to:

If he asks you for help, just refuse. Don't agree to help him.

Sirius: "..."

Sirius reluctantly jumped onto the boat, waving goodbye and saying, "Well then, goodbye, you two little ones."

All of Durmstrang's students stood at the bow of the ship, looking at William and Hermione on the shore.

Although they were ripped off for spending a lot of money to buy a spot in the Triwizard Tournament, they still admired William very much.

The two female students William saved were so eager to repay him that they glared at Hermione with envy.

Hermione smiled, her eyes darting around mischievously. Almost provocatively, she reached her not-so-warm little hand toward William's neck, causing him to flinch.

Hermione burst into laughter, grabbed William's arm, and suddenly pecked his cheek, giggling:

"They'll be so angry!"

William looked at Hermione, who was becoming increasingly wicked, with a hint of resentment... "Is this how you assert your dominance?"

The girls on the boat, seeing Hermione showing off her affection so openly, all wanted to rush ashore and poke a hole in her hole.

Krum, standing on the other side of the stern with a complex expression, suddenly shouted:

"You two absolutely must invite me to your wedding!"

William and Hermione were both stunned.

This is completely irrelevant!

The female students, unable to reach Hermione, took their anger out on Krum, chasing after him and hitting him.

Marriage? What's the point of getting married? The Stark might break up in a few years!

Amidst the commotion, the boat quickly disappeared onto the river.

Hermione, her face flushed, seemed to have been reminded of something.

She glanced at William, shyly hesitant to speak, and seeing that no one was around, she mustered her courage and said:

When are you going to talk to my parents about getting engaged?

William paused for a moment, then said, "Isn't it a bit too early?"

"It's not like I'm asking you to get married now, it's just an engagement! How is that too early?!" Hermione glared at William.

William sighed.

Their actual age is indeed around seventeen, which is considered adulthood in the Wizarding World.

But to others, he's only sixteen.

If he were to approach Hermione's father now to discuss the engagement, wouldn't Iris chop him into eight pieces and throw him out to feed the dogs?

He had always heard Roy say that his friend spent his free time sharpening scalpels.

I don't even know which part of his body they want to operate on!
