Harry Potter: Glory Bows to Me

Chapter 53: Hallucinating Potion of Despair

Amanta turned and walked towards Draco and Harry.

Harry nervously lifted up Draco's robes and pulled at his arms and legs, trying to see if he was injured in any way.

"Draco, what happened?"

"Don't move him, he needs to rest."

Amanda pulled Harry's hand away from Draco: "He was cursed by Voldemort."

"The Cruciatus Curse, what is that?"

Harry asked with wide eyes and a confused look on his face.

Amanta introduced the three unforgivable curses to Harry with a serious face, and told him that Neville's parents were driven crazy by the Cruciatus Curse.

Harry's face turned pale: "Oh my God...Draco you..."

He threw himself on Draco and hugged him tightly, tears rolling down his eyes.

"Okay, he should be fine for now..."

Amanta told Harry everything that happened yesterday. Harry's veins throbbed and his eyes turned red.

"Merlin's nose... Voldemort is literally on the back of Quirrell's head."

"I can't even imagine it... This is really cruel. Fortunately, you are all okay."

When Harry stretched out his arms again to hug them, Amanta caught a glimpse of the snot hanging on his face, so she quickly asked: "Harry, why are you here alone? Where are the professors?"

Harry dropped his arms and began to think back to the time they'd been apart the night before.

"I rushed into the castle in a hurry to find Professor Dumbledore, but I bumped into Snape as soon as I entered the door. I told him that Voldemort wanted to kill a unicorn in the Forbidden Forest and drink its blood."

"Snape didn't believe it at first. I told him that Voldemort might be on the back of Quirrell's head. He said, 'Potter, don't think you can attract other people's attention by talking nonsense.' He also told me to get back to the Slytherin dormitory."

"As we were walking in the corridor, a fire suddenly broke out in the Forbidden Forest. Soon a small area of ​​the sky was burned red. Snape glared at me and quickly notified several professors to rush over."

"I followed them out of the Forbidden Forest, and Hagrid came out. He didn't know anything, and he didn't see you either. I pulled Snape and shouted, 'Amanta and Draco are gone!'"

"Snape shook me off, and they all went in with Fang. I waited outside for almost the entire night, and managed to avoid Filch's patrols a few times. But it was almost dawn, and I hadn't seen anyone come out yet."

Harry looked in the direction where Firenze had disappeared, as if observing whether Firenze would come back.

"I thought about it and went in to look for you. Not long after, I got lost in the woods. Fortunately, I met Firenze later. He told me that he saw two human cubs by the stream not long ago, and then he led me to find you."

Amanta tapped him on the head.

"You should wait outside. It's too dangerous inside. What if you meet Voldemort?"

Harry was unconvinced and said, "You all went in, what should I do? I was worried that you were killed by Voldemort..."

Amanta shook her head: "Fortunately you are okay. I wonder where Voldemort and Quirrell are now..."

As soon as she finished her words, Firenze appeared behind them with Professor McGonagall and Quirrell.

"I expect you to explain your actions once we return to the castle."

Professor McGonagall, looking even angrier than the last time she'd been seen on her broom, pointed her wand at the sky and shot a giant Gryffindor symbol into the air, marking their location.

After Amanta thanked Firenze, he left quickly.

Quirrell followed behind Professor McGonagall, tilting his head and looking at them nervously.

"May, Merlin--Miss, and Bo, Potet, Malfoy, Fu, I finally found you." He spoke with his usual stuttering again.

Amanta noticed that he was not wearing a hood or the huge scarf.

When Draco saw Quirrell he turned pale with fear.

Amanta quickly winked at Draco and Harry.

Harry looked at Quirrell at a loss, and leaned close to Amanta and whispered to her: "Isn't it the back of Quirrell's head..."

Amanta gestured to slip away.

Harry nodded in understanding.

“You! …You!”

Draco pointed at Professor Quirrell, horrified, and made a gurgling sound.

Professor McGonagall looked at him puzzledly: "Malfoy, what's wrong with you?"

Quirrell's appearance seemed to irritate Draco's nerves. He sat up on the grass, propped himself up, and kept backing away, stretching out his hands and scratching his hair.

Fear made his eye sockets sunken, and his eyes were confused, as if he was looking at something else.

Amanta suddenly realized the potion that Quirrell had given Draco yesterday.

Green...developed by Voldemort, and can also cause pain and hallucinations...could it be the Potion of Despair?

That was a potion specially developed by Voldemort to protect the locket. It would cause great pain and hallucinations to those who drank it.

Hopefully there will be a solution when Snape comes.

She and Harry each held down Draco's shoulders, barely stopping him from moving.

Soon, Snape, Hagrid and Professor Flitwick hurried here.

Snape walked towards Draco, looked at Draco twitching on the ground with pity, but his words were merciless.

"Tsk, how embarrassing... My dear godson, when I think of how Lucius would be shocked to see you in this state, I can hardly resist the urge to bring you to him for his appreciation."

"Sev, what's wrong with him?" asked Professor McGonagall.

Snape leaned close to Draco's mouth and sniffed.

"He may have accidentally ingested some strange potion. I think I already know the antidote. Let's carry him to the dungeon first."

Several professors pointed their wands at Draco, lifted him up in the air and walked in front of him.

Amanta and Harry followed behind, looking worriedly at Draco who was caught in a painful hallucination.

At the same time they stayed away from Quirrell.

Hagrid followed behind them holding Fang's hand, and Fang would come up from time to time to lick the palms of Amanta and Harry's hands.

"I'm so glad you're all okay. I don't know what happened though. There was unicorn blood all over the road yesterday, though I didn't see the unicorn."

"And those centaurs - I've never seen them so angry. They didn't believe anything we said. It took us a lot of effort to convince them to let us go over and put out the fire."

Amanta coughed awkwardly.

Fortunately, they had blamed Voldemort for setting fire to the Forbidden Forest, and they had a rule not to attack cubs, otherwise -

Perhaps the centaurs had already scattered their ashes before the professors found them today.

Hagrid scratched his beard.

"After I send you back, I need to get some good sleep. It won't be too late to tell me what happened then - you guys are all pretty reliable kids, right?"
