The Little Superman of Hogwarts

#243 - Chapter 243 [School Opening]

The events at the Quidditch World Cup shocked the entire magical world.

According to post-event statistics, the number of deaths and disappearances was approximately 337, which is more than the number of deaths in an Indian train collision. Of course, since these people came from all over the world, the number of deaths in Britain itself was only about 10.

Very little information was found at the scene because, after the frenzied behavior of the first half of the night, very few people were active in the area during the second half. And most of these people were gathered around the stadium, relatively far from the scene of the incident.

Several wizards saw Kree and Voldemort. In their descriptions, it seemed like Dementors were at work, chasing someone. In the end, it seemed that some unknown battle took place between the two sides.

However, besides the Dementors, they only saw a figure with a red and blue intermingling back.

And the Dark Mark, which was subsequently seen by everyone, made everyone in the world know that it was the work of the Dark Lord Voldemort.

Just at this time, the news of the mass breakout from Azkaban could no longer be suppressed.

Think about it, a month ago, Death Eaters broke out of Azkaban, guarded by Dementors. Now, a month later, the attackers displayed the Dark Mark.

No one needs to provide any evidence; everyone will directly associate it with Voldemort.

"Unbelievable! Voldemort actually caused the deaths of more than 300 wizards and Muggles!" The person who said this was none other than Tom, the bar owner at the entrance to Diagon Alley.

Now, with only a few days left before the start of school, many young wizards are shopping for supplies in Diagon Alley.

Kree, Hermione, and Ginny happened to hear this conversation. They pretended not to hear anything and walked into Diagon Alley as usual.

"It's a pity no one knows how much you sacrificed at the time!" Hermione sighed.

Superman's steel body had its ribs broken by the shockwave, and Kree also suffered some external injuries. If Kree hadn't been closest to Voldemort at the time and instantly deployed a magical barrier, the number of casualties on the scene would have exceeded 4 digits. If Voldemort's position had been lurking in the very center of the camp, it could have reached 5 digits.

Unfortunately, this greatest hero not only couldn't show his face but even had to hide, because Kree's intuition told him that if he had shown up at the time, he might have been mistaken as the real perpetrator. He now possessed nearly 300,000 units of magical power. It could be said that no one on this Earth had a more accurate intuition than him.

Therefore, Kree could only suffer in silence, but in exchange for the deaths of Voldemort and some Death Eaters, it could be considered a small profit.

Of course, Voldemort didn't truly die. He should still have a part of his soul existing in this world, a separate soul fragment apart from his Horcruxes.

Of course, this separate soul fragment was far inferior to the Dementor version of Voldemort. It was likely just a parasitic being in the form of a baby, just like in the original story.

Honestly, the injuries Kree sustained were actually very serious. His sternum and ribs were almost shattered, and the external injuries were shockwave lacerations like glass shards. These accumulated injuries caused Kree to cough up blood non-stop, looking terrifyingly abnormal.

If these injuries were on an ordinary person, they wouldn't necessarily recover even after 100 days in the ICU. If a doctor in a rural hospital saw such injuries, they would probably give up treatment directly.

When retreating that day, Kree was actually at his limit. He used magic to cover up the surface damage on his body. When he returned home through the Portkey, he collapsed directly at the doorway, which almost scared the two young girls to death.

However, due to Superman's recovery ability, he only rested for ten days before recovering. Today was the last day before the start of school.

During these 10 days, at Kree's house, Hermione and Ginny took care of Kree tirelessly, and both of them cried more than once.

Three days ago, Kree was finally able to get out of bed, and today, Kree has completely recovered.

In the three years since Kree and Voldemort have fought so many times, this was the most serious injury Voldemort had inflicted on Kree.

Kree also felt very annoyed, but after he recovered, he discovered a very unexpected thing.

Kree's strength and Superman abilities had been greatly enhanced!

For example, Kree's arm strength before this summer was only about less than 50,000 tons.

But after Kree's injury recovered, his one-handed strength reached an astonishing 80,000 tons! And the value of magic power on his body reached 330,000!

Could it be that Superman's bloodline is actually like the Super Saiyan bloodline, the more you are abused, the faster you improve?

But now, there are almost no beings on this Earth that can cause Kree harm, unless an accelerator is used to bombard Kree with radioactive high-energy particles.

The three people came to Diagon Alley and went to the bank, pharmacy, and various bookstores to buy things.

Just after they finished buying books, they met someone they didn't want to see at all.

Malfoy and his father were standing gloomily outside the bookstore, and the two groups happened to meet head-on.

Malfoy originally wanted to open his mouth and mock the three of them again, especially mocking the chaotic relationship between the three.

However, seeing Kree's eyes, Malfoy immediately withdrew his dirty words—he knew from Hagrid that Kree was the one who healed him, so he realized that Kree was an extremely powerful person, who possessed powerful magic power, and he couldn't compete with him at all, and even his father was far inferior!

Malfoy's personality has always been a bit of a bully, so he would never dare to act rashly in front of Kree.

"Chris, right?" Old Malfoy spoke first.

"Huh? Old Malfoy? What's the matter?" Kree was quite disrespectful to Malfoy's father. He directly used the term 'Old Malfoy'. As a junior and Malfoy's son's classmate, Kree should have used 'Uncle'. This word came out, making Old Malfoy choked.

"I just heard that Hagrid, that big fool, said that you were the one who saved my son, so I wanted to express my gratitude to you, but it seems that your attitude towards this matter is not quite what I imagined!" Old Malfoy briefly stated the reason.

"Of course! If it weren't for Hagrid begging me, do you think I would save your bastard son?" Kree didn't give him any face.

Old Malfoy was choked and couldn't say a word.

"Thank that big fool properly! If he hadn't come to beg me, you should be preparing a good tombstone for your child now!" Kree said, then took Hermione and Ginny away.

After Kree left, Old Malfoy grabbed Little Malfoy and continued shopping, but after finishing the shopping, Old Malfoy asked a question: "Who do you think was the person who killed Voldemort at the Quidditch World Cup?"

The people from the Ministry of Magic didn't know that the person who died was Voldemort, but how could Death Eaters like Old Malfoy not know?

Lucius Malfoy had even had some direct contact with Voldemort! He certainly knew his master had been resurrected.

But that night, he had watched Voldemort self-destruct from a distant location. Unfortunately, due to the angle at the time, he didn't recognize the person facing Voldemort was Klee.

But regardless, he had his suspicions.

"How could…" Draco Malfoy originally wanted to say, "How could that be?" He wanted to directly refute his father's absurd guess, but he suddenly realized that perhaps his father's guess was true!

The poison used by the spider, even magical experts like Dumbledore and Snape, potion masters, couldn't completely eliminate it, only alleviate it. What ability did he, an ordinary third-year student, have to detoxify it?

There was only one explanation: Klee's magic power had completely surpassed those two!

Surpassing Dumbledore? Surpassing the greatest white wizard of the 20th century! The concept alone was enough to make one's scalp tingle!

Draco Malfoy glanced at his father and nodded lightly, saying with a look as if he had seen a god: "Father, perhaps what you said is true!"

"In the coming year, stay as far away from him as possible, and don't provoke him!" Lucius Malfoy ordered.

Draco Malfoy didn't utter a word of denial.

After Klee and his two companions left the bookstore, they unexpectedly ran into Harry and Ron.

Ginny had been staying at Klee's house for the past two weeks, and this was the first time she had seen her brother in two weeks.

"Oh! Look who it is! I bet this beautiful lady's name must be: Ginny Feynman, right?" Ron said with a hint of sarcasm.

Ginny's full name was Ginny Weasley, and due to Western customs, women would change their last name to match the man's after marriage, meaning if Ginny married Klee in the future, her name would become: Ginny Feynman. Clearly, Ron's words were sarcastic.

"Ron!" Hermione called out first.

"Okay, just kidding!" Ron also felt that the joke was a bit much.

Harry, seeing the situation was a bit stiff, immediately changed the subject, saying: "Hi! Klee, Hermione, Ginny, long time no see!

Do you know what?

The people from the Ministry of Magic told us that because of our 91 Squad's excellent performance on the night of the terrorist attack, the Ministry of Magic will give us an award! Do you think the Ministry of Magic will prepare to award us a new Order of Merlin?

Or some reward from the Ministry of Magic?"

Klee smiled and said, "I think the Ministry of Magic needs you as heroes! I guess you will be awarded the Order of Merlin, Second Class, not the Third Class you guessed!"

The Order of Merlin (abbreviated as O.M.) is an honorary award given to wizards who have made significant contributions to the magical society. The Order of Merlin is divided into three different classes: First Class, Second Class, and Third Class.

The recipient of the First Class Order is equivalent to a big shot in the magical world, like Dumbledore. This kind of medal is usually a final judgment on a person. Obtaining this medal is probably no easier than ascending to heaven.

The recipient of the Second Class Order of Merlin has invented something practical and widely influential, such as a very important potion or some very important magic. The Second Class Order is the backbone of the Order of Merlin series. These winners usually do something that affects the magical world, but not that powerful.

The Third Class Order of Merlin is more of an honorary nature and has a lower threshold, such as their second-year Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Lockhart.

Normally, Harry Potter and his friends, as students, organized and mobilized everyone to carry out on-site self-rescue during the disaster, which was indeed very excellent, but it would not earn them a Second Class Order.

However, the Ministry of Magic's performance on the scene that night was too bad. At this time, in order to "turn a funeral into a happy event", these officials must push out a new hero to divert everyone's attention.

Borrowing the behavior and glory of this new hero to cover up the Ministry of Magic's inaction and serious dereliction of duty is usually the most common and favorite thing for officials to do. Not only in the wizarding world, but in fact, Muggle world officials are even more adept at this.

So Klee could conclude with just a few words that Minister of Magic Fudge would likely push Harry up as a "hero" to be praised.

The group chatted for a while, and finally agreed to gather at a cafe after shopping to eat some lovely snacks and then go home.

Klee and his two companions arrived at the cafe first, followed by Harry Potter and his friends after they finished shopping. Behind them were the Weasley twins, and Mrs. Weasley.

Mrs. Weasley looked very haggard, her hair was as messy as a chicken coop, and it was obvious that she hadn't taken care of it properly for some time.

During the time in the cafe, Mrs. Weasley complained a lot about her husband. Although everyone at the table was younger than her, perhaps she was under too much pressure during this time, so she couldn't care so much and spoke her mind.

Because Mr. Weasley did a lot of things that night, of course, there would always be some small flaws, because things couldn't be so perfect in an emergency. As a result, the Daily Prophet seized on these small flaws and overturned all of Mr. Weasley's efforts for the terrorist attack that night. It was as if Mr. Weasley was the main culprit. These reports and the notoriety that was spreading everywhere put a lot of pressure on the Weasley couple.

At the end of the conversation, Mrs. Weasley mentioned Percy: "If Percy could graduate smoothly, then perhaps my husband's pressure would be much less!"

After saying this, Mrs. Weasley glanced at Klee quietly.

Klee smiled and replied: "Don't worry, the matter Mr. Weasley encountered will soon be forgotten, and even in a short time, he may even get a promotion and raise!"

As the official mouthpiece, why would the Daily Prophet specifically target a small employee and attack him constantly?

This is actually a common practice in officialdom. After a serious mistake occurs, a typical person in the department will be pushed out to be a scapegoat. After the heat of the matter has passed, this typical person will be quietly pulled back, and even given some compensation, such as a promotion.

Perhaps because the wizarding world is too small, Mrs. Weasley couldn't see through why this was.

In this atmosphere, the shopping in Diagon Alley ended.

The next day, at Platform 9 3/4 of King's Cross Station in London.

Another group of familiar people appeared on the platform.

The children's fourth year has finally begun!
