As far as the results are concerned, Harry finally won the Ravenclaw Gold Crown instead of the Triwizard Cup, which inexplicably brought an end to the reopened Triwizard Tournament.

When Harry appeared from the green flames holding the golden crown and smiling, the audience cheered for him.

Even if the taste of the bowl of soup in the top three games has changed, if the people who drink the soup can't taste the taste, in fact, everyone can be regarded as happy.

Ending with Harry becoming the champion is actually a pretty good ending.

However, the game of all parties behind this grand event can only be said to have just begun. Since Harry appeared in front of everyone with the golden crown in his hand, the chaos and calm had begun.

Dumbledore sat on the table, calmly watching the little wizards cheering for Harry, but he felt a little relieved in his heart that had gone through vicissitudes.

To be honest, he had a crush on Harry as a kid, someone he could never be. Harry has the courage to face the enemy and the determination to others in his heart, but he doesn't have it.

Yes, no one can imagine that this man who is called "the greatest white wizard of our time" is actually a... At least, he thinks he doesn't have enough courage.

Everyone thinks that he is very strong, and he is indeed very strong... But maybe only Maca vaguely understands how strong this old wizard is.

However, it was such a "very powerful" wizard who kept lamenting his "cowardice".

He hated himself.

He hated the self who witnessed his sister's death, the self who couldn't correct Tom Riddle, and even more the self who had great love but didn't have the courage to break the conventions of the world.

He hated this self who only knew how to blame himself.

Dumbledore is actually very clear, whether it is Voldemort's actions or Maca's action plan, he has already understood.

But when the two students were fighting each other endlessly, whether it was good or evil, he wanted to save them, but he couldn't save them.

That day Maca made a big noise in the World Cup and played a play with him, but afterwards he could only sigh for his performance in the ruins.

He had to admit that he had never been a good teacher. Would there be any good teacher like him who could only watch his two students fight each other and fight to the death?

He didn't want either Maca or Tom to die just like that. What he hoped more was that the two could coexist peacefully and call him "Professor" hand in hand.

But he still failed to wake Tom up, not even once!

What's even more ridiculous is that when Tom, Voldemort, tried to disrupt the entire British wizarding world, he found that he couldn't erase his students from the world by himself.

All he could do was to let his two students fight and kill each other?

"It would be best if my death could be exchanged for a happy ending." Dumbledore thought about it more than once, and he even assumed a plan for it.

Looking at the elated Harry below, and thinking about Maca far away in southeastern Europe, Dumbledore shook his head secretly.

It's okay to say that Harry is a child, at least his life direction can be traced; but Maca's child...even the experienced Dumbledore can't guess what kind of person Maca will grow into.

Maca is actually a very selfish child, or in other words, he only sticks to the most fundamental principles in his heart. When someone or something involves his principles, no matter good or evil, it will no longer affect his judgment.

Even if Maca would destroy the world due to certain things in the future, Dumbledore would not be surprised at all.

Fortunately, that child still understands the beauty of "love", which is one of the reasons why Dumbledore is willing to let go and let him act on his own.

Just as Dumbledore was thinking calmly, he suddenly seemed to have noticed something, and turned his erratic gaze back to Harry's direction.

Tom Riddle's minions, finally in action.

...

"Potter, is this the magic item used to replace the Triwizard Cup? What is it?"

Surrounded by everyone, Harry stood in the middle holding Ravenclaw's golden crown and showed it to the young wizards around him with a smile.

This is a proof that he has worked hard, passed through layers of barriers, and finally became a champion.

For an ordinary little wizard, he is indeed a child with both courage and strength. If Maca's perversion is excluded, Harry's becoming the champion is actually not an accident.

But when he was the only "normal person" left in the third project, the champion was a bit embarrassed. Of course, there are not many people who know the truth.

"Hey! Potter, show me what kind of magic item this is, it looks so cool!"

Ravenclaw's golden diadem was quickly passed among the crowd, most of the little wizards wanted to touch it, and Harry was not such a stingy person.

"call out"

Just as everyone was passing and looking at the golden crown, a strange sound came from afar. Everyone subconsciously turned around to look, but immediately found that the scene they saw had an indescribable sense of déjà vu.

"Dark Mark!"

Compared with last time, this time more students recognized what the skull in the sky meant, panic... came again.

There was a commotion in the crowded crowd, everyone either looked left and right, or opened their mouths to exclaim, and even some cautious students had already started to move their feet.

Harry was shocked to find that the golden diadem that had been passed around among the crowd had just disappeared.

At this moment, two students took advantage of the commotion and sneaked away from the crowd, and walked towards the exit of the Quidditch stadium. Moody, who had been monitoring the scene from the side all the time, followed immediately.

"...Albus."

On Dumbledore's side, other professors began to take the initiative to maintain order, while Professor McGonagall paused and looked at Dumbledore.

"I'll leave this to you first, Minerva." Dumbledore stood up, still calmly said, "I'll go over there to check the situation."

"But, Ravenclaw's golden crown..." McGonagall looked down and hesitated.

"No, it's all right." Dumbledore nodded with a smile, "The golden crown cannot be lost. Our first priority is to protect the safety of the students."

After all, Dumbledore also glanced down, and then hurried towards the school gate.

...

"...Tonks, watch out for the top of your head!"

On the wide horse path beside the woods outside the school gate, the battle was already very fierce.

Long before the Dark Mark was sent out, Voldemort's Death Eaters had already fought with the members of the Order of the Phoenix who were lying in ambush. Various spell beams staggered back and forth, and brick fragments and turf-covered dirt turned around. Fly, the fighting situation is quite chaotic.

Just looking at the number of people, it is obvious that there are more Death Eaters.

But even so, that's not all. Compared with the Death Eaters who were on standby in that cemetery before, the number of people here is obviously not that much.

Therefore, members of the Order of the Phoenix as an early warning team can still resist for a while.

It's just from this that it can be found that the number of people in the Order of the Phoenix is ​​still too small. To deal with Voldemort's attack head-on, this is really not enough.

It's no wonder that the main purpose of the Order of the Phoenix is ​​to secretly resist the Death Eaters.

"Cruciate!"

Among the bushes beside the road, Bellatrix fell from the canopy with a grinning grin, and cast a Cruciatus Curse at Tonks without hesitation.

Tonks had done well in the Auror training, and his reaction was quite quick at the moment. When she heard the warning from Lupin ahead, she immediately rolled to the side to avoid it.

"Disarm you!"

A beam of red light shot towards Bellatrix, but it was a little too hasty to cast the aim. Even though the speed was fast enough, it was still easily dodged by the opponent.

But Tonks didn't want to hit the opponent, she just wanted to buy herself some time to stabilize the rhythm of the battle.

"Armor protection!" "Drowsy!"

At that moment, Tonks defended and Bellatrix attacked, and the fighting habits of the two began to emerge.

Tonks knew very well that his combat ability was not his strong point, and although he was not completely powerless, he would always lose his ability over time.

Therefore, she focuses more on defense and dodge.

But Bellatrix has always used offense instead of defense, and she has always sneered at defensive spells.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Tonks opened his eyes wide, and hurriedly jumped to the side again. The Iron Armor Curse couldn't prevent the Death Curse, so she had to dodge, or she would definitely die.

"Hahahaha... the master is the strongest! Long live the Dark Lord!"

Bellatrix screamed sharply, and released the next spell in the direction that Tonks was avoiding. For her, the burden of using the Killing Curse was not small, it was not a spell that could be cast continuously.

The other members of the Order of the Phoenix were all restrained, and even Kingsley Shacklebolt, an elite Auror, was taken care of by several Death Eaters, so it could be said that he had no skills at all.

However, in such a critical situation, Tonks was not without means of counterattack.

Seeing that the other party was aggressive and aggressive, she simply rolled over again and hid in the bushes. By the time Bellatrix cast two more spells at the bush, she had gone the other way.

"Who!"

Just as she was about to break through the bushes and try to pull Tonks out again, Bellatrix suddenly heard a rustling sound from the left.

"It's me, Lestrange."

A certain low-pitched male voice sounded from behind the tree over there, and then, a big man with big arms and round waist suddenly came out.

"Gol? You don't go over there to fight, what are you doing here?" Bellatrix asked sharply.

"Oh" Goyle said gruffly, "I'll see if you need help here."
