Silence, silence.

After Dumbledore said those words, there was a deathly silence.

Sirius suddenly covered his face and said helplessly and confusedly: "Oh, I really don't understand. Why can't you just tell me what your plans are? I really can't understand..."

Not only him, but most of the people present looked confused, but Dumbledore stopped explaining.

Hermione subconsciously looked at Esther in the crowd. Among the anxious and confused people, she looked so calm, as if she had already had a premonition of what was happening in front of her.

So she immediately understood that Esther knew all the truth, and perhaps it was a trap set by her and Dumbledore.

She walked towards her quickly and gently held her shoulders.

The girl has a slender figure and thin shoulders, as if her bones would be crushed with just a little force. However, this seemingly weak girl has accomplished many incredible things.

"Ais..."

Just as she was about to ask, Voldemort's voice echoed through the entire auditorium again. He loudly announced that Harry had been killed by him and asked all those who resisted to come out and surrender to him.

Almost as soon as these words were spoken, everyone started to panic. Sirius was the first to rush out of the auditorium, followed closely by the others.

Hermione swayed, almost fainting from the bad news.

Esther and Ron reached out to support her together, and Ron murmured: "Who knows whether it is true or not, and...and didn't Dumbledore say that everything was in his plan?"

These words were both comforting Hermione and convincing herself.

All those who could still move walked out of the hall, Esther followed behind, Draco walked to her side calmly, reached out and grabbed her hand tightly.

"Potter is really...dead?"

His palms were cold and his face was pale.

Esther held it back firmly and said softly: "No."

He breathed a subtle sigh of relief and followed everyone out of the castle silently.

Only Dumbledore didn't move.

Esther turned to look at him, and Dumbledore nodded to her.

Voldemort still didn't know that Dumbledore was not dead. He now felt that he had no opponent in killing Harry, so he walked into the castle so openly and walked in front of everyone.

This is an opportunity, an opportunity to kill him. If Dumbledore comes forward rashly, it will definitely make him wary, and it will be even harder to kill him if he shrinks back.

Esther understood everything at once, nodded to Dumbledore, and then walked out of the castle.

It was already early in the morning, the sky was dark, and it was almost dawn.

Esther saw Harry lying limply in Hagrid's huge body, like a baby, lifeless.

Professor McGonagall let out a shrill cry, and Hermione, Ron, and Ginny were also crying loudly. Ginny wanted to rush out regardless, but was held tightly by the person next to her.

Voldemort was still saying proudly that Harry was killed by him while he was trying to escape. Before he finished speaking, a figure rushed out of the crowd and rushed towards him fearlessly.

It's Neville Longbottom.

Voldemort pretended to express his mercy at first, telling Neville that he would let him go as long as he was willing to surrender to him. But Neville refused without fear, so Voldemort lost patience. He summoned the Sorting Hat with a spell, put the Sorting Hat on Neville's head, and prepared to burn Neville and the Sorting Hat directly.

At this moment, Hagrid's giant brother Grawp staggered towards this side and shouted Hagrid's name. At the same time, the giants who had surrendered to Voldemort roared in response. At the same time, the centaurs rushed out with bows and arrows, and the scene instantly became chaotic.

Draco defended Esther and hid aside. Even in this chaotic moment, his eyes were still very good and he whispered: "I just saw that Potter suddenly disappeared."

Esther quickly answered Draco while casting spells on the Death Eaters who attacked the students: "He has an invisibility cloak, so he must be hiding."

The scene was too chaotic. In addition to the giants and centaurs, the hippogriff Buckbeak and the Thestral who were almost executed also appeared on the scene, hovering in the sky and grabbing the eyes of the giants.

Compared with these magical creatures, wizards are indeed too small. Both they and the Death Eaters can only flee in a hurry. Once they fall down, they will either be trampled by the panicked crowd or trampled to death by the giant.

In a daze, Esther heard Voldemort let out an angry roar. She immediately looked over and saw Neville holding Gryffindor's sword and cutting off Nagini's head with one strike.

Voldemort's last Horcrux was gone.

She couldn't help but smile, and then threw herself into the battle even more bravely.

"You traitor!"

A green light flashed, and Draco immediately pressed Esther and hid under the stone pillar of the auditorium. We shattered the stone pillar. Esther turned around with lingering fear and found that it was Bella who was shooting the spell at them.

"How dare you betray the master?" She looked at Draco with a look of resentment: "I knew you were carried away by this woman! You actually hang out with these little brats who don't know the boundaries of heaven and earth! I want to punish you !"

She shouted, wanting to kill Draco and Esther immediately.

Draco's face was pale, but he still looked at Bella fearlessly: "I don't need you to punish me."

"Okay! Very good!" Bella said bitterly: "In that case, let me clean up the house for your parents."

Speaking of attacking them, Esther and Draco hurriedly fought. The wand in Draco's hand was not his own and he could not display his full strength. Bella was undoubtedly the most powerful among the Death Eaters. In that wave, it was quite difficult for the two of them to join forces.

Esther gritted her teeth and persisted, mainly because the previous battle consumed too much of her energy. Fortunately, Hermione quickly discovered their predicament and came to help.

With Hermione's help, the pressure on both of them was slightly relieved, but Bella became more and more crazy as she fought, laughing fiercely and crazily while attacking more relentlessly, even if she suffered some injuries, she didn't care.

At this time, the war situation was tense. However, the house elves of Hogwarts suddenly appeared in the castle. They brandished sharp knives and forks and attacked the Death Eaters.

Leading the way was Kreacher, with Regulus Black's locket hanging on his chest, shouting loudly: "Fight! Fight! Fight for my master, the defender of the house elves!" In the name of brave Regulus, resist the Dark Lord! Fight!" [Note]

Even in the chaotic castle, its voice still sounded loudly in everyone's ears.

Ginny killed a Death Eater with the help of a house elf, then turned around and came to help Esther and the others without hesitation.

A killing curse fell on Ginny's ear, and Mrs. Weasley screamed and rushed over to start a duel with Bella.

Mrs. Weasley usually looks like an ordinary housewife, but as an original member of the Order of the Phoenix, her fighting power is also impressive. When she was completely enraged, she actually killed Bella.

At the moment Bella died, Harry took off the invisibility cloak and appeared in front of everyone, causing a burst of exclamations.
