12 Barty Crouch Jr and a conversation with Harry

Summer is over and today we had to return to Hogwarts.

Ray spent the rest of the week after the World Championship with the girls.  They got to know Narcissa more closely and she became more open.

Narcissa asked Daphne and Bella to help her with the training.  She also began to study occlumency and legilimency. Ray said this will help in the future.  And that thanks to occlumency, she will learn much faster. He also watered her with his blood to make her body stronger and healthier.  Narcissa was shocked when she found out that they were all dragons. They told her a lot, but the most important secrets were kept secret.

Ray suggested that Bella mark Narcissa as a subordinate, but all the girls said to wait until the end of the year.  They were sure that she would get a tattoo.

Now they escorted Astoria and Ray.

"See you tonight."  said Bella.

"Astoria, be vigilant. There will be a lot of girls at school this year. Make sure they don't come up to Ray."  said Daphne.

"I would like to see it."  Astoria said smiling.

Over the past year, Astoria has grown very much.  She is only in her second year of study, but in appearance she can be given 15 years.  Although it would seem that dragons should grow very slowly, but in this case the opposite is true.  The body will quickly grow to a peak state, and then aging will stop.

Ray looked 18 years old.  Although he was only 14 this year.  His height has already reached 1.80 meters.  But he knew that he would not be higher than 1.9 m.

Bella and Daphne also became much more mature.  They have long been rounded in the right places.

Ray believed that growth would stop when they looked 20-22.

Ray looked at Astoria and asked:

" Let's go to ?"

"Yeah."  Astoria nodded.

Daphne came up and kissed Ray.

"See you, hubby."  she said smiling.

Ray noticed how Bella pushed Narcissa and said something to her.

Narcissa ran to Ray and quickly kissed his cheek, after which the red like schoolgirl in love she ran to her room.

Ray looked at Bella: "Bella, don't push her. Let everything go as it should."

Bella walked over and kissed Ray.

"You're wrong. I'm just helping her sort out her feelings. Do you really think that love cannot arise unexpectedly?"

"I believe . But you should know that quickly emerging feelings disappear just as quickly. Of course, if it's not the love of a Veela, a dragon or girls from other races who choose partners once in their life based on compatibility and the call of their souls.  " Ray answered.

"Do not worry. Her love will not disappear. I know my sister. You see, she confesses to you before we leave this world."  said Bella.

"Mmm, just wait. Cissi can still stay with us."  said Ray and took Astoria's hand.

With a flash of flame, they disappeared.

"Do you really think that her love will not burn out?"  Asked Daphne.

"Of course. Women from the Black family fall in love only once. You think why Andromeda escaped and left her family.

Although Narcissa has not emotionally stabilized now, I believe her feelings are genuine, not because Ray appeared as a hero and saved her.

Just like those two Veelas sisters .  The oldest fell in love with him as soon as she saw, and he also saved her.  She had already given her heart to him, and now she is sleeping and sees Ray in her dreams.  And if Ray does not accept her, she will either commit suicide or simply cease to be herself.  So it is with the youngest. It's hard for Veelas to find a partner who can resist their charms, and with whom they will have a bonds.  Therefore, most of them live in their society in France and leave it only to conceive a child. "Answered Bella.

"We have another year. And now we'll go to Cissi and go shopping. We need a portkey to India and Egypt.

In Egypt, you need to steal the phoenixes.  We could buy them, but they don't sell them, but we need them.  We will steal 10-20 eggs. On Avalon, they very quickly become adults and give birth to offspring.  There are rare herbs in India. "Said Daphne.

"This year we have a lot of work."  said Bella, and they began to walk into the room to Narcissa.

 _____

Hogwarts Express.

Ray turned the seats into a bed and went to bed with Astoria in his arms.

Of course, he closed the door so that no one would bother them.

 _____

When the train reached Hogwarts, it was already night.  Heavy rain began.

Ray and Astoria used an invisible barrier so as not to get wet.

"Let's go find a carriage."  said Ray.

They didn't have to search for a long time, they sat in the nearest.  Sixth-year students from Ravenclaw were traveling with them.

They stared at Ray all the way and blushed.

Astoria only smiled wryly.

With a sigh, she thought:

[This year will be very long.]

{Is everything all right?} Ray asked.

{Yes.  Just thought that this year will be long.} Astoria answered.

{Really ..} said Ray.

 _____

When the carriages arrived at the entrance to Hogwarts, McGonagall was waiting for them.

Peeves began throwing water balls at his students.

"Peeves, come down here now!"  screamed McGonagall.

Peeves showed his tongue and kept throwing balls.

"I'll call the director! I warn you, Peeves!"  she screamed.

Peeves threw the last balls and flew away.

"Why haven't they banished him yet?" Astoria asked.

"It's black magic. And until the director is Dumbledore it just won't happen. Everyone knows that Dumbledore gives a second chance to even the most vile killers. And Peeves is just a poltergeist."  answered Ray.

Ray took Astoria's hand and walked toward the Great hall.

While they reached their places, many students from different houses greeted them.

There were a lot of gold cutlery on the tables.

Ray and Astoria took their seats and waited.

 _____

After freshmen distributed.  Many treats appeared on the tables.

Ray noticed that Hermione was pushing the plate away.

"So she still decided that the house elf's are slaves."  said Ray softly.

Astoria followed Ray's gaze and said: "But she knows that without a contract with the wizard, the house elf will die?"

"Ha. How can this Mudblood know about this?" Malfoy shouted when they heard them talking.

Crabbe and Goyle began to nod their heads supporting him.

Ray and Astoria did not even pay attention to him.  This idiot is incorrigible.

After the students ate, the food disappeared.

Albus Dumbledore got up from his seat and prepared to say:

"So. Now that we are all full and drunk, I must once again ask your attention to make a few announcements. Mr. Filch asked me to inform you that the list of items prohibited in the castle walls has been expanded this year. Full  the list consists of four hundred and thirty-seven items, and it can be found in Mr. Filch's office, of course,if someone wishes. " Dumbledore grinned.

"As always, I would like to recall that the Forbidden Forest is a forbidden territory for students, just like the village of Hogsmeade - it is not allowed to visit those younger than the third year students.

"It is an unpleasant obligation for me to inform you that there will be no Quidditch Championship this year."

After these words, the audience fell into silence.  Everyone was in shock.

"This is due to the events that should begin in October and continue throughout the school year - they will require all their time and energy from the teachers, but I'm sure that it will bring you real pleasure. I am very pleased to announce that this year at Hogwarts ..."  Dumbledore was not allowed to finish.

*Rumble*

The door of the great hall rumbled open.

On the threshold stood a man leaning on a long staff and wrapped in a black road cloak.  All heads in the hall turned to him.

The stranger went towards the teaching desk.  With every step he heard an incomprehensible sound.  As if he had metal heels on his shoes.

Walking up to Dumbledore, he held out his hand.  The director met him as an old friend and pointed to an empty seat at the teaching table.

 "Let me introduce you to our new teacher, DADA. Professor Moody."  he said joyfully.

Throughout the hall, the students began to talk.

 "Moody? Alastor Moody?"

"An auror?"

"I heard that it was he who caught most of the prisoners of Azkaban."

His face was covered with scars like a real soldier who had been in various troubles.  One eye was artificial, it was an artifact that could look in all directions, even behind.

He took a flask from his pocket and drank from it.

Ray knew it was Barty Crouch Jr, under the Polyjuice potion.

"As I said, in the coming months we will be honored to host an extremely exciting event that has not happened in this century. I am pleased to inform you that this year the Three Wizards Tournament will be held in Hogwarts."

The hall burst into a noise.

Everyone began to rejoice and scream.

Even Dumbledore smiled happily.

He told them about the tournament and that by participating in it, one can easily lose one's life.  The tournament was canceled precisely because of this.

There were screams.

"I want to participate!"

"Eternal glory!"

"1000 galleons! Can you imagine this is 1000 galleons!"

"I know that each of you is eager to win the Three Wizards Cup for Hogwarts, but the directors of participating schools, together with the Ministry of Magic, have agreed on an age limit for applicants this year. Only students aged seventeen and older will receive permission to nominate their cadidatures. I personally  I'll make sure that none of the students under the age of using any trick to slip our candidate for the election of the champion to our independent judge. Therefore, I urge - "Do not waste time pushing yourself if you are not yet seventeen."

All who have not yet turned 17 immediately began to resent.  The Twins Weasley and Ron shouted the loudest.

"WHAT. BUT IT'S SAME 1000 GALLEONS."

"The delegations from Beauxbaton and Durmstrang will appear here in October and will stay with us for most of this year. I have no doubt that you will be extremely kind to our foreign guests all the time that they will spend with us and that you wholeheartedly support the Hogwarts champion when he  or she'll be chosen. And now - it's too late, and I understand how important it is for all of you to be vigorous and rested for tomorrow's lessons. It's time to sleep! Do not waste time. "Dumbledore clapped his hands and sat down in his place.

 _____

Returning to his bedroom, Ray saw that Bella, Daphne and Narcissa were already waiting for them.

"Have you been waiting long?" Ray asked.

"20 minutes." Bella answered.

"Tell me how your progress is."  said Ray.

"We were in the black market and bought portkeys there in India, China, Egypt and America. Tomorrow we will go to Egypt."  said Daphne.

"I made a list of plants that we can collect. And I noted the places where they trade prohibited artifacts."  said Narcissa.

"Yes. Cissi helped us a lot. She has clearly an organizational talent." Said Bella.

Narcissa blushed slightly and began to look at Ray, expecting something.

Ray did not know what to do, but went up to her and stroked her head.

"Cissi, good work. I'm glad you found what you like."  Ray said smiling.

Narcissa closed her eyes and smiled happily.

"What have you got?" Asked Daphne.

"Gandalf spoke about the Tournament of the Three Wizards. He also said that only those over 17 years old can take part." Answered Astoria.

Ray looked at her.

"When you managed to read <The Lord of the Rings> I still haven't even finished writing."

Ray had a hobby, he copied some books from the past world.

"Mmmm. I read what has already been written." Astoria answered and smiled.

"I wonder what spell he will use to prevent people under the age of 17," Bella said.

"The only thing that comes to mind is the runes determining adults. But this is ancient knowledge. And in those days, in order to be considered an adult, you did not have to be 17 years old. The child became a man after the first hunt, after the first murder, after passing the test  There were many factors. "Ray answered.

"Most likely Dumbledore will use just that. It is likely that he will put protection on the goblet. So that you can't throw paper not with your name." Daphne added.

"But such protection is easy to get around. The powerful * Confundus * and the goblet will believe that the person threw the paper with his name."  Said Bella.

"By the way. Barty Crouch Jr is now at school, under the guise of Alastor Moody."  said Ray.

"This madman. He is a very skilled wizard. But he is very fanatical, even without vows, he was ready for anything for Voldemort."  Said Bella.

"Agh. Enough. Let's take a bath!" Astoria shouted.

"Hehehehe. Yes. Cissi, you will come with us."  Bella said and started pushing her toward the bathroom.

"What. No. Ray. But what about Ray." Said the red Narcissa.

"Don't worry. I'll go after you." Ray said and sat down in a chair.

"Go !! Bathroom. Bathroom. Bathroom!" Astoria had fun

The next day, the weather returned to normal.  The rain is over. And the clouds parted, revealing a view of the clear sky.

Moody punished Malfoy and turned him into a ferret.

All this happened due to the fact that Malfoy tried to attack Harry from the back.

Interesting , what was the occasion this time.  Although perhaps this is just a continuation of what began at the Quidditch World Cup.

Two days later, the fourth year students went to the first lesson of the DADA.

Ray sat down at the end of the classroom.  Pansy Parkinson immediately sat down with him.  After the girls learned that Bella and Daphne would no longer study at Hogwarts, they began to actively approach Ray.

The students began to take out books when the door opened and Alastor entered.

"You can remove them. These books….You will not need them."  he said hoarsely as he approached the table.

Moody pulled out a classroom magazine and began to name names, his native eye scanned the list, while the magical one spun around, looked at the student when he or she responded.

"Well. Professor Lupin wrote to me about your class. It seems that you have thoroughly mastered the opposition to the Dark Beings. But you are behind, very far behind in terms of spells. Therefore, I am here to pull you up in the field of what wizards themselves can cause  to each other. I have a year to teach you how to deal with the Dark ... "

But he did not finish, Ron Weasley interrupted him.

"And you will not stay?"

"You are Arthur's son, yes? Your father has helped me a lot the other day. I'll stay here exactly a year, this is solely because Dumbledore personally asked me about it."  answered Moody.

"So, right to the point. Spells. They come in different strengths and shapes. According to the recommendations of the Ministry of Magic, I should teach you some anti-spells and stop there. I should not show you what the forbidden Dark Spells are like until you switch to  sixth year, you are considered not old enough to deal with such things until this time, but Dumbledore has a higher opinion of your endurance, he believes that you can do it, and I will say this: the sooner you know the enemy, the better. How can o protect yourself from what you've never seen in your life? A wizard who is about to apply a forbidden spell to you will not share his plans, he will not act openly, before your eyes, politely and tactfully. You must be prepared in advance. You  must be vigilant and observant. You must take it away, Miss Brown, when I say! "he shouted at the end.

Looking around the class, he asked.

"So ... Do any of you know which spells are most heavily punished by magical law?"

Ron Weasley hesitantly raised his hand and spoke about Imperio.

Moody took out a spider, pointed a wand at him and said:

 <Imperio>

He was in full control of the spider, the students began to laugh.  But Ray was coldly watching it all.

"You think it's funny, huh? Will you like it if I do the same to you?" He growled.

Everyone instantly stopped laughing.

"Who else knows anything? Other forbidden spells?" Asked Moody.

Hermione raised her hand.  Neville Longbottom, too, slowly raised his hand.

Moody looked at Neville.

"Speak."

"There is such a spell. Cruciatus."  Neville answered quietly.

"Your name is Neville Longbottom, huh?"  He asked.

"Yyees."  Neville answered uncertainly.

"I need to make a little bigger so that you understand the meaning."  said Moody and pointed his wand at the spider.

<Engorgio>

The spider has grown several times.

<Crucio>

At the same second, the spider's legs pressed against the body, he rolled over on his back and began to jerk terribly, swinging from side to side.  Moody did not remove the wand, and the spider shook and twitched even more.

Neville was pale.  And squeezed the edge of the table.  There was an expression of horror on his face.

Hermione screamed: "Stop it! You see, he is afraid."

Moody stopped.  And he examined the class, noting the state of Neville.

"Pain. You don't need a vise for fingers or knives to torture anyone if you can apply the Cruciatus spell ... It was also once very popular. So .. Who knows anything else?"  he said softly.

But the disciples were silent, they were pale.

"Avada Kedavra."  Hermione said quietly, but everyone heard her.

"Yes. One of the worst spells. The Spell of Death."  He said with a small smile.

<Avada Kedavra>

Moody shouted using a spider curse.

A flash of green and the spider is dead.

"It is impossible to repulse. There are no shields from it. After it is not possible to survive. Only one person who has managed to survive is known throughout history, and he sits right among us."  said Moody and began to look at Harry.

Everyone began to look at Harry.

"Avada Kedavra is a spell that requires serious magical powers to be fulfilled. Now you can all get your wands, point them at me and say words, but I doubt that I can even feel it." Said Moody.

<Avada Kedavra>

A cold voice interrupted Moody.

*Boom*

A green beam flew past his ear and left a recess in the wall behind him, like after a bombarda.

The students turned with horror and looked at the end of the classroom where they saw Ray pointing his wand at Moody.

Moody's eye widened and fear was visible in it.

"Be careful with the words. You know, there are wizards capable of killing with ordinary spells like tickles spell. Or spells for cleaning vegetables. It's all about imagination and fantasy." Ray said coldly, and in absolutely silence, started to leave the classroom.

Slytherin's students sweat when they remembered what Ray had done to Flint, but got up and followed him.  Even Malfoy silently left the classroom and followed Ray.

Harry and Hermione also followed the Slytherin students.

[I must inform my master of this.] Thought Moody / Barty.

Why did Ray decide to do such a stupid thing?  It's very simple, this is the last year, in addition, Ray plans to participate in the tournament, which means that he will demonstrate his power anyway.

As for the unforgivable, they cannot be used against other wizards.  If you use it on a Muggle, then you just get fined. These are the laws.

 _____

A few hours later.

Dumbledore walked in his office in circles and thought aloud.

"This is bad. Peverell is able to use such a powerful Avada Kedavra. In addition, he was not afraid to use this magic. I can't conflict with him now. There will be too many people at Hogwarts. The tournament will be watched by the whole world. I will deal with this issue next year.  "

"You don't need to be afraid, Albus. If he wanted power, he would have gathered a huge number of supporters around him for a long time. You are too young and do not know what this family was capable of and how respected it was. I advise you not to get into his affairs  . The Peverell were never interested in politics. "Said the portrait of one of the directors.

Many past school principals have confirmed this.

"I'll keep a close eye on him. Now the main enemy is Voldemort." Said Dumbledore and sat down in his chair.

Looking at the empty cage, he thought sadly.

[Where are you Fawkes.  Why did you leave me.]

 _____

In Ray's bedroom.

"Are you sure everything will be all right?" Asked Astoria, who was sitting next to Ray.

"Yes. Dumbledore is too busy right now and will not seek conflict with us. I could kill him. But he still has to fulfill his role. In the future, it will be the concern of Harry Potter and his wives. I allow these events to happen only to be  enemy. There must be conflict and enemies in any world. "Ray answered.

"Mmm, are great leaders always born in turbulent times?" Astoria said with a finger on her cheek.

[Cute.] Ray thought.

"Yes, as they say: War is the engine of progress."  said Ray smiling.

 _____

The next day, Harry found Ray and asked him to meet.

Ray said to go down to the dungeons next to the Slytherin dormitory at midnight.

 _____

Midnight.

Ray felt Harry and more ... ..3 people.

"Follow me ."  he said in a rumor and went to the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets.

Having reached the statue of Salazar, Harry threw off his invisibility cloak.

"I never knew there was another entrance to the Chamber of Secrets!" He shouted in surprise.

"Hogwarts is a very mysterious place."  Ray answered and began to look at the girls who had come along with Harry.

Hermione ….. Luna …...and ...... Susan Bones.

"Ray, this is Susan Bones. Susan is Ray Peverell, he is like ... ... my older brother."  embarrassed said Harry Potter.

"Nice to meet you Mr. Peverell. I heard a lot about you."  said Susan.

"My pleasure, you can call me Ray."  Ray answered smilingly.

Luna just came up and hugged Ray, he stroked her head with a smile.

"I see you're happy, Luna. That's good." He said.

"Yes, it's all thanks to you. Thank you."  Luna answered with a smile.

Ray waved his hand and created 5 chairs.

"Hermione, you don't need to think that house elfs are slaves. House elfs were created to serve. If they don't have a connection with the wizards, they just die. They get paid - it's magic. Hogwarts is in place of a great magical source, namely  so here's the largest community of house elfs. " said Ray, looking at Hermione.

"Luna and Susan have already explained everything to me, but it's hard for me to accept it."  Hermione answered sadly.

"You are a very kind witch, Hermione, and I'm sure you will be able to improve magical society in the future. I recommend that you direct your efforts to help Werewolves, Veelas, Vampires and other similar races. They are not very different from us, but in most countries they have  no rights. For example, Veelas rights are recognized only in France, Bulgaria, Germany, Magical Rus. "said Ray.

Hermione perked up and her eyes burned with confidence.

"What did you want to talk about," little brother. "Ray said with a smile.

"I ... I'm sorry, I didn't want to say that, you just always help me and give advice."  said Harry.

"Hahaha, don't worry. Actually the Potters are descended from the Peverells, so in some way you really are my little brother."  said Ray.

"Ray. I have dreams .... strange dreams. I seem to be looking through the eyes of others. I recently saw Pettigrew and someone else kill muggle in the old house. What is happening?" Asked Harry.

Ray pointed a finger at the scar and said, "This is because of the scar."

Everyone immediately had a serious face.

"Do you know what the horcrux is?" Asked Ray.

"I read about it in family books. It's very dark magic. A wizard divide his soul into two and puts one half in some kind of object. By doing this he achieves immortality."  said Susan softly.

"Voldemort created the horcruxs. That's why he was able to move into Quirrell's body in the first year. You already know that in the second year the diary was controlled by Ginny Weasley. This diary was the first Horcrux who created the Voldemort  while still a schoolboy.

As for your scar.  When Voldemort tried to kill you, his spell bounced off of you and came back.  Because of this, he inadvertently began the ritual of creating a horcrux, a piece of his soul broke away from Voldemort and began to look for a container, and found it in your head.

To create a horcrux, certain objects are needed; you cannot put your soul in a boot or pan.  Therefore, you cannot be called a living horcrux. His soul as a parasite sits in your mind and feeds on your magic, it is she who connects you with Voldemort.  And that is why in your dreams you see him through the eyes. "Said Ray.

"So it was Voldemort!" Shouted Harry.

"Ray, can you do something?" Luna asked anxiously.

Ray nodded: "I can, but I won't."

"But.."

"Do not interrupt. Do you understand that this shard of the soul was created when Voldemort was at the peak of his strength, when he possessed a huge amount of knowledge. Do you understand what I'm leading to?" Said Ray.

"Do you want Harry to absorb his knowledge?" Susan asked.

"Yes. It is in your head, in your mind. In your mind you are a god. Remember this. You are already trained in the occlumency, wait until the end of the year and conduct a marriage ceremony with these girls. You will have a bonds and it will help you defeat the soul fragment and absorb all his knowledge. Of course, you will not be able to instantly get everything, knowledge will open over time."  said Ray.

All the girls blushed.

Even Harry was a little embarrassed.

"Do you think I can handle it?" He asked.

"Of course you can. As long as you have people who love and are waiting for you, you will never lose."

With that, Ray disappeared in a flash of flame.

"Damn. He always does that!"  shouted Harry, and the girls began to laugh.
