However, Harry also understood Ron a bit. His parents' blame, Percy's animosity, Fred and George's estrangement, and even Ginny didn't visit him while he was hospitalized.
It was as if he had been abandoned by everyone all at once, just like when he was at his aunt's house before, perhaps even worse than himself. This was also why Harry could forgive him so quickly.
"Only Ron knows whether he felt wronged. That memory body said the things he wrote. Long ago, Ron was dissatisfied with me and his brothers. As for whether there were other people, he didn't say, after all, the people weren't there, he didn't need to say. Ron, am I right?"
"As for whether he wrote anything about you, Harry, I think he did. He's jealous of everyone who is better than him."
Ron jumped out to pick a fight, and Ethan didn't want to let it go so easily.
"Give me back the towel first. This is a blood-replenishing potion, I don't know if you need it."
After taking the towel from Harry, Ethan handed him a bottle of blood-red potion.
This towel was specially made with alchemy, it has a very strong adsorption effect on blood, and it can preserve the blood for a long time without spoiling, and it is also convenient to extract when needed.
It was specially made by Ethan.
Even Malfoy was found by Ethan.
It was naturally for Harry's blood.
"Harry, don't listen to him, I didn't write those things, you believe me."
Ron looked at Harry nervously, he really didn't expect that his most trusted friend had sold him out.
"Yeah!"
Harry nodded thoughtfully.
From Ron's expression, it could be seen that Ethan was telling the truth, and Ron probably wrote about himself as well.
But if he said it directly, they couldn't be friends anymore.
He hadn't made a single friend in the Muggle world for so many years. After coming to Hogwarts, the first friend he made, and also the best friend, was Ron, so even if he knew about this, he could only pretend to be blind.
At the same time, he also understood why Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were so angry, and why Fred and George were estranged from Ron. It turned out that Ron was dissatisfied with his family even before he came into contact with the diary. Otherwise, Ron would not have been bewitched.
As for Percy, there was even more reason. It could be said that that explosion ruined most of his future. There wasn't a single senior official in the Ministry of Magic who was disabled.
The three roommates probably also knew about Ron's petty thoughts, and they all disliked Ron.
… …
"For the summer vacation, you can come to my house in the wizarding world, where you can cast spells freely."
This was mainly said to Hermione and Penelope, they were almost getting bored at home during the summer vacation.
"Okay, but I have to go home first, and then stay at least a month at your place."
Hermione readily agreed, not being able to use magic at home last summer was really unbearable.
Cassandra fell silent, I gave you the house, so you could invite the buckteeth to come and live?
What am I becoming?
Knock! Knock!
The carriage door was knocked, and with a wave of Ethan's hand, the door was opened.
Seeing Draco outside, Ethan nodded to him and followed him out.
He came all the way to his carriage.
"You two go out first."
After driving the two lackeys out to stand guard, only Ethan and Malfoy were left in the compartment.
"What kind of dark magic do you want?"
This was the condition Ethan promised him.
This morning, Ethan found Draco and asked him to bloody Harry's nose, the reward was a dark magic.
Draco agreed on the spot, and didn't ask what Ethan's intention was in doing so.
"I want a strong offensive one, at least not worse than Ron's!"
With a body of equipment, Draco had full confidence in winning Ron, but after taking it off, he couldn't win.
He knew he couldn't avoid that dark magic, and his old man at home wouldn't teach him profound dark magic, all he could find were things like Ornery Outburst, which had very little lethality. 217
"Killing Curse?"
"No… not this!"
Draco shook his head tremblingly, he wanted to beat Harry and Ron, not kill them.
Moreover, the Killing Curse couldn't be used.
"Okay, I know what to teach you."
Saying that, Ethan restored and opened the suitcase that had been shrunk, and took out a piece of parchment.
On it was Sectumsempra, and its counter-curse.
"Snape's magic against Lockhart back then was still very powerful, and the learning difficulty is not very high."
"I accidentally found it in an old book of a senior, but you can't say that you got it from me, if you agree, this will be given to you."
Sectumsempra, Ethan knew it, but hadn't used it, after all, there were better choices, who would use it!
But it can't be denied that this is a very good dark magic.
"I know, I won't say that you taught me."
Draco took it excitedly.
"By the way, what material is your wand made of?"
Ethan only remembered that the core of Draco's wand was unicorn hair, but he didn't know what the outside was made of.
Although the unicorn hair wand is loyal, it rejects dark magic.
It can succeed, but the difficulty is higher than wands made of other core materials.
This made Draco always a joke, he who worshiped dark magic couldn't release any decent dark magic.
That Ornery Outburst was simply hilarious, if someone else came, it wouldn't be a little snake more than a meter long.
Even if Ethan handed Sectumsempra to Draco, Ethan doubted whether he could release it with this wand.
"Hawthorn, unicorn tail hair."
Draco still remembered this very clearly.
Ethan knew why Draco would choose this wand in Ollivander's wand shop, Hawthorn wands favor contradictory personalities, or those wizards who are going through their confused period.
“Your wand might suit you, but it favors healing magic more than releasing dark magic.”
“If you really want to learn dark magic, then change your wand.”
After saying that, Ethan opened the carriage door and walked out.
Wizards always have deep feelings for their first wand, but there are also cases of actively changing them. For example, Bill exchanged his old wand, which eventually ended up in Ron's hands.
Chapter 139: Cassandra: I Was Here First!
With a twist in space, Ethan, along with Cassandra and Penelope, appeared in the cottage in Godric's Hollow.
Today, Cassandra had informed her family in advance, and no one came to pick her up. She was going to Ethan's place with him.
As for Penelope, she would call her family from the village later. This place is much closer to Plymouth than London. If she wanted to go home, Ethan could drive her there in no time.
“Master, dinner is ready.”
Hatch arrived immediately. When Ethan went to school, to facilitate communication, he naturally left a Wizarding Wireless Network here.
“Prepare two more guest rooms.”
Ethan nodded and then instructed again.
After dismissing Hatch, Ethan opened the trunk that had been expanded with an Undetectable Extension Charm.
“Nagini, we're home, you can come out now.”
For the past two months, Nagini had been living in Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets. Now that it was the holidays, he naturally had to bring her back, otherwise she would have to spend more than two months in solitude.
Hearing Ethan's voice, Nagini quickly came out of the trunk and gave Ethan a hug.
He didn't know if the animal affinity was still working on her, but she was still very attached to him.
“Alright, Nagini, let's go eat!”
After carefully feeling the soft touch, Ethan separated from Nagini.
Then he led the girls to the dining area, where Nagini skillfully found a place to sit.
She was quite familiar with this place. What she had lost was the memory of being human, but the memory of being a snake was still there, especially the memories of the later years were particularly clear.
During Christmas, Ethan had brought her here to live. At that time, she was still in snake form and had almost crawled all over the house.
Dinner was very rich, especially the meat, which was prepared in abundance.
Since Ethan drank the Blood of Magic and became a Dragon Vein Wizard, his appetite had also increased several times. The three roommates combined didn't eat as much as Ethan.
Moreover, he especially liked to eat meat, and he didn't eat much fruit anymore. Ethan used to like to eat fruit very much, but he had never liked to eat vegetables.
“Master, the rooms are ready!”
Soon, Hatch came to Ethan's side to report the situation.
Cassandra had a room here, and it was cleaned every day, so there was no need to tidy it up.
So, he only needed to prepare Penelope's and Nagini's rooms.
Moreover, the rooms were already clean, and he only needed to arrange some necessities. With the help of magic, this was very simple.
After dinner, Cassandra and Nagini took Penelope to tour and familiarize her with the house.
Ethan then went to the potions lab. Before returning, Ethan had notified Hatch using the Wizarding Wireless Network.
He had asked him to prepare some potion ingredients, and the required list had been sent over, and the necessary Galleons had also been sent back by owl.
It was not uncommon for house-elves to run errands for their masters, visiting Diagon Alley or Hogsmeade Village.
Hatch did not disappoint Ethan and prepared everything he needed as soon as possible.
Walking into the potions room, after closing the door, Ethan took out a huge, water-tank-like thing.
This was made with alchemy when he was at Hogwarts. You can't buy such a big cauldron outside.
After heating the huge cauldron with a constant flame, Ethan added a large amount of water from the Lethe River. The demand for all the materials for this potion was extremely large, but not very rare.
Then he began to process the magic materials that needed to be used. The entire brewing process would take seven days.
This spell and potion were also found by Ethan in Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets and were ineffective against ghosts and Peeves.
The resurrection magic that combined this spell and potion could be used when souls remained in the world, had not had time to descend, or had been deliberately retained.
As for where Voldemort found this magic, Ethan didn't know. Anyway, Little Tom wouldn't know it.
Ethan spent more than three hours processing the potion.
“Aren't you asleep yet?”
Ethan, who came to the living room, was a little surprised to see Cassandra and the others still here.
“No, I wanted to ask you, where is the maid outfit?”
“Didn't you say you wanted me to be a maid?”
“I'm here now, so where is the maid outfit!”
Penelope glanced at Cassandra, who had a gloomy expression, and looked at Ethan with a smile.
When Ethan was still in the first grade, she had promised to go to Ethan's house during the summer vacation to be a maid, but plans could not keep up with changes.
Later, she said that she would consider it later, but in fact, she had agreed. Now that she was here, Penelope did not intend to break her promise.
“Where would I get a maid outfit here? If I were in London, I could make a phone call, and someone would send it over tomorrow morning.”
Ethan glanced at Cassandra, who had a gloomy expression, and said speechlessly.
Penelope must have done this on purpose, and she had already angered her during the time he was out.
Transfiguration could transform it, but Ethan couldn't control many details, and he could probably only transform it into something grotesque.
