15 The return of Voldemort

Two weeks remained before the start of the second round.

Bella and Daphne completed their operation to infiltrate the Zhao Clan treasury.

 _____

Ray, Astoria, Fleur and Narcissa sat together and discussed what was happening in Magic Britain.

"Rita Skeeter... I don't understand how she still lives. After all her articles in the daily prophet, she would have been killed more than 10 times already," Fleur said.

"Well, let's start with the fact that she's an animagus. And her shape is a bug. Moreover, for all the time, she has collected a huge amount of dirt on all these politicians and Lords."  said Ray.

"That explains a lot, otherwise how could she get all this gossip."  said Narcissa.

"Yes. She simply destroyed Hagrid's reputation. Although the <Daily Prophet> is only popular in wizard Britain."  said fleur.

*Crash*

Two girls fell to the floor.

"Phew. Have time." said Bella.

Ray and the girls immediately got up and started checking them.  They looked shabby, and Daphne had cuts and small wounds all over her body that were already almost healed.

Narcissa immediately began to diagnose their condition.

"What happened?"  Ray asked seriously.

"We found a warehouse with medicinal herbs, but time is already over. You were right. There was an old man no weaker than Dumbledore. But we managed it."  Said Bella.

"He did not use a magic wand, he manipulated mana directly. The old man turned out to be a swordsman. I decided to fight him while Bella was emptying the warehouse. He was much more experienced than me. Therefore, I have many wounds, I also did not use magic.

In the end, I won only due to the fact that with every blow of mine, the cold penetrated his body and slowed down more and more.  When the old man realized that he could not win, he used some sort of technique. I immediately realized that I needed to run. He blew himself up. We managed to escape. "Said Daphne.

Ray walked over to Daphne and Bella.

* Flick on the forehead *

* Flick on the forehead *

"Auch."  Rubbing her forehead at the same time said Bella and Daphne.

Ray hugged them both.

"You are great. But you do not need to take that risk. If you were weaker, you could not leave that place."

Bella and Daphne nodded.

"Sorry to make you worry."  said Bella.

"Sorry."  Said Bella.

"Despite this, you have worked hard. Now you can relax."  said Narcissa.

Ray went to Narcissa and pulled her into his arms.

"You did a good job too. Don't downplay your merits." Ray said softly.

"Then .... kiss me ... as a reward."  looking at the floor, Narcissa said.

The girls heard her request began to smile.

Ray put his hand on Narcissa's cheek, then bent down and gently kissed her.

Narcissa immediately answered the kiss, and hugged Ray by the neck.

30 seconds later they separated from each other.

"Are you satisfied?"  Ray asked with a smile.

Narcissa hugged him and whispered.

"I am very pleased. Thank you."

* Clap clap clap *

"Cissi has become bolder."  said Bella.

"Hehehe. This happens even faster than we expected."  added Daphne.

Fleur and Astoria were laying the table with a smile.

"Good. Let's have dinner." Fleur called them.

The remaining two weeks passed in such a warm atmosphere.

 _____

24 February.

The day of the second test came, Fleur's parents were already in the audience, but Gabrielle was nowhere to be seen.  Just like Astoria.

On the shore of the lake stood a table at which the judges sat. Krum was already there.

Fleur and Ray were fully dressed.

"Did you understand exactly what the second test will be?"  Dumbledore asked them.

"Yes. We don't have to dive into the lake."  Fleur answered.

Dumbledore nodded, Karkaroff grunted contemptuously.

After 5 minutes, the last participant came.

Ludo Bagman got up from his seat and began to say:

"Well, then, our participants are ready for the second test. Let's start by my whistle. In an hour they must find what they have taken from them. So, on the count of three: one ... two .... three!"

A piercing whistle sounded in the cold air, the stands exploded with shouts and applause.

Harry Potter and Victor Krum immediately ran into the lake.

Fleur remained in place.

Ray started walking right on the water, thanks to the connection he knew the location of Astoria and Gabrielle.

"Look at Mr. Peverell! I wonder what spell he used?"  Shouted Ludo Bagman.

Everyone was surprised, there was no magic to walk on water.

"Miss Delacour, if you do not hurry, you will lose."  Dumbledore told her.

Fleur simply nodded and didn't answer.

At this time, Ray had already reached the right place, Astoria and Gabrielle were right under him.

Ray pulled out his wand and pointed it down.

* Fluctuations *

The waves began to diverge in all directions and something rose directly from the bottom.

* Splash *

Two girls emerged from the water, Ray immediately used a warming spell on them.  With another wave of the wand, all the water evaporated and the girls were wrapped in warm blankets.

Astoria and Gabrielle opening their eyes to see Ray.  They did not even notice that they were standing directly on the surface of the black lake.

"We finally met."  Gabrielle said with a smile and hugged Ray.

Ray hugged her back and stroked her head.

"Glad to see you, Gabrielle."

Astoria also hugged Ray.

"Are you okay?" Asked Ray.

"Nnn."  Both girls nodded.

"Hi Gabrielle, my name is Astoria."  Tori introduced herself.

"Hi Astoria. I have long wanted to meet all of you. Fleur wrote a lot about you."  Gabrielle said with a smile.

[She really is like a little angel.]

Ray thought while looking at Gabrielle.

 ______

As soon as they reached the shore, Fleur immediately ran to them.

"Are you okay? Astoria. Gabrielle."  she said excitedly, hugging two girls.

"It's all right." Gabrielle answered.

Astoria nodded.

"Let's meet with your parents."  said Ray.

 By this time, Harry and Krum had sailed to the shore.

Dumbledore was talking to one scary mermaid.

"We should consult before giving grades."  he said.

But Ray and the girls are already gone.

 _____

"Maman! Papa!"  cried Fleur and ran to the man and woman.

The woman was practically a copy of Fleur, the only difference was her slightly curled hair.

The man was quite tall, with brown hair.  Strict facial features. But there was warmth in his eyes as he looked at his daughter.

After that, they looked at Ray.

"Glad to meet you, Mr. Peverell. My daughters have told me a lot about you. My name is Joseph Delacour, Lord Delacour."  said the man.

"My name is Apolline, I am the mother of these two."  a woman introduced herself with a smile.

"You already know me, but I will introduce myself. My name is Ray Peverell, Lord Peverell. Let's go into our room, we have something to talk about."  said Ray.

 ______

Entering the room, Ray introduced all his girls.

"Are they….all your wives?"  surprised Apolline.

"You don't have to worry about your daughters. Ray treats us very well and he has no favorites."  Bella comforted her.

Joseph said nothing, but stared at Ray.  He knows he can do nothing.

"Papa! You don't need to look like that. We love Ray."  said Fleur.

Gabrielle nodded.

"Haa. I'm your father, what do you think I should watch. Especially when the man whom you both fell in love with already has wives."  said Joseph.

"I love them all equally. And I will never give them a grudge."  seriously said Ray.

Apolline noticed that for a moment his eyes changed.

The girls were smiling, they knew how much Ray loved them.

"We're here to tell you about ourselves," Daphne said, looking at her parents, Fleur and Gabrielle.

"What we tell you ... other wizards should not know. If you let it out, you will be in trouble. You will simply be kidnapped and tortured to learn more about us."  Astoria added.

Apolline and Joseph nodded.  They felt it must be serious.

_____

1 hour later.

Apolline and Joseph sat on the couch and drank wine.

"So you are going to another world?" Asked Joseph.

"Yes. Actually, you could go with us."  said Ray.

Apolline shook her head.

"We are not yet ready to leave this world. Moreover, thanks to your gift, we will have a lot of time to explore this world. When the time comes, we simply stage our death and travel."

"You cannot die of old age. So it's possible, after 100 years or 500 years, it doesn't matter, we will meet again."  Joseph added, pointing to the two rings that Ray gave the spouses.

"These rings give you access to Peverell Island. And you can use them to contact us, no matter how far we are."  said Daphne.

"Please. Take care of our girls."  asked Apolline.

"They are our sisters. Of course we will take care of them."  Astoria said with a smile.

"I advise you to spend time together. We will leave this world in the middle of summer."  said Ray, looking at the Delacour family.

"Yes, for the time being, Gabrielle and I will stay with our parents."  said Fleur.

"Gabrielle will spend this night with us. I will mark her and make her a dragon," said Ray.

"You can take a guest room. You don't have to live outside of Hogwarts."  said Bella, looking at Apolline and Joseph.

They nodded and asked Bella to show them the room.

 _____

 "Gabrielle, are you ready?" Ray asked.

"Yes, I've been waiting for this for so long." Gabrielle answered.

She was wearing a white bathrobe.

* Knock knock knock *

They both looked at the door.

* Opens the door *

"Ray….I got a tattoo a week ago. I, I thought, maybe….....you could accept me too."  Narcissa said and closed her eyes.

*Steps*

*Steps*

Ray hugged Narcissa.

"Where does this uncertainty come from, Cissi. I told you that I consider you a member of the family. Regardless of the tattoo. During this time, you have become a very important person for me, and I can not imagine my life without you."  Ray whispered to her.

*Cry*

Narcissa began to cry, Ray felt the moisture on hiw chest.

[Women are truly made from tears.]

"Ray, I love you. Please accept my feelings."  said Narcissa and kissed Ray.

Ray answered the kiss.

The kiss was salty, but for Narcissa it was the sweetest.

"I love you too, Cissi."

 Ray picked up Cissi and carried him to the bed where Gabrielle was waiting for them.

"Let's start."

 _____

Next morning.

Waking up Ray looked at Cissi and Gabrielle.

Narcissa has changed a lot, her hair has grown and reached the waist.  They were green in color. Ray already began to think that hair color changes depending on the disposition to the elements.  When Narcissa opened her eyes, Ray saw beautiful emerald eyes, they were fascinating.

"Good morning, love."  said Narcissa tenderly and kissed Ray.

[She became something like C.C.  from <Code Geass>, hmmm Cissi….C.C....Cissi ....]

"Good morning, how are you feeling?"  asked Ray.

"Great. As if born again."  said Cissi joyfully.

"It's not far from the truth. Still, you were reborn into a dragon."  Ray said softly and stroked Narcissa on the head.

* Yawns *

"Good morning."  covering her mouth said Gabrielle.

Gabrielle's appearance has not changed, but she began to look 3 years older.  Like Fleur, her aura became very clean and tender.

"Good morning my angel."  kissing Gabrielle on the forehead, Ray said.

"Hehehe, let's go have breakfast."  she said joyfully.

 ______

When they left the room, all eyes turned to them.

"Gabrielle, is that you!?"  cried Apolline.

Joseph clutched at his heart.

"Ah. How fast the children grow. Can make another couple."

"Father. Stop playing!"  Fleur said angrily.

"Wow, Cissi, you have changed a lot."  said Daphne.

"Green is right for you."  Bella nodded.

"Nnn. Now our team needs girls with pink, purple and white hair."  Astoria nodded.

Ray's eye began to twitch.

[Tori ... ..you now ... ... raised the flag.  Flags ???]

"Hehehe, relax dear. Just have fun."  hugging Ray, said Bella.

"Gabrielle, you have become such an adult." Fleur said joyfully.

Gabrielle was embarrassed.

"Show the wings!" Shouted Astoria.

Everyone immediately departed and made room.

* Clap *

* Clap *

"Wow ..." everyone was surprised.

Gabrielle had white wings, very similar to Fleur's.  But if Fleur's wings are painted silver at their tips, then Gabrielle's is gold.

Cissi's wings were emerald, half transparent.  These were dragon wings.

"Archangel Gabriel .... the doomsday messenger, the angel of death and mercy ..... And the Emerald Dragon, Ysera. An aspect of nature."  Ray said softly, but everyone heard him.

"I know who the Archangels are, but who is Ysera?"  asked Daphne.

Everyone watched carefully.

"Time for stories."  said Astoria, which caused a quiet laugh.

"Ysera is an emerald dragon who received a blessing from Titan Eonar. One of the protectors of the world and sleeping Azeroth. Ysera is the Queen of Dreams, Mistress of Dreams, Aspect of nature. You can talk about her for a very long time, consider her a Dragon God. In her dragon form, she has  there were emerald, half transparent wings. "said Ray.

"Titans, as in Greek mythology?"  asked Bella.

"No. These titans ... Mmm ... how to say. They are much stronger than the gods, they are larger than the planets. And they are able to create life and new worlds, something like the Creators, but on the scale of one universe. In general, it's too early for us  thinking about it is a completely different level. " answered Ray.

"Yes. But we will know that no matter how strong we would become, there is always someone stronger."  said Daphne.

"What other aspects exist?" Narcissa asked.

"The aspect of life. The aspect of time. The aspect of magic. The aspect of nature. The aspect of the earth (destruction)."  answered Ray.

"And are they all dragons?" Gabrielle asked.

"Yes. In most worlds, dragons are always at the very top of the power pyramid."  answered Ray.

"Ray. Ray. The aspect of nature is green! And which of them is red?"  asked Astoria.

"Alexstrasza is an aspect of life."  Ray answered and created in the air an image of a dragon and her human form.

"She is very beautiful. Wait, her human form .... elf ... high elf .... unbelievable."  Fleur said.

Ray could only silently agree.

"I said that red is the best."  said Astoria.

And everyone began to laugh.

"Ray, make me such an armor."  Astoria asked.

"Armor? Yes, it's bra-armor and armor-cowards." Apollin was indignant.

Joseph shook his head.  As if to say: "Don't listen to her, man."

The girls just looked away. They will not say that dragons like this style of clothing.  And such armor does not constrain movement.

"Let's have breakfast."  said Gabrielle.

And a large group of people took their places.

 _____

Time passed very quickly.

Fleur and Gabrielle spent time with their parents.

Daphne, Bella and Narcissa planted plants on Avalon.

They created a huge valley in which there were various climatic conditions.

As soon as Narcissa became a dragon, she was able to control plants and healing magic very easily.

Bella and Daphne trained.  And quite often duel in the arena.

Ray and Astoria were not sitting idle either.  They continued training in the <Room of requirement>.

Ray considered the third round.  Perhaps he will spare Voldemort, but he will immediately capture some death eaters, maybe even one.  And certainly Peter Pettigrew.

Once Sirius is free, he will teach Harry dark magic.  No matter how he despises the family, but he is Black and this is in his blood.

He also considered what needs to be done to return the magic.

And for this you will need to do a lot.

_____

May 30.

McGonagall found Ray and told him:

"Today at nine o'clock in the evening you will have to go to the Quidditch venue. There, Mr. Bagman will explain to you and other participants what awaits you in the third round."

Ray thanked her and waited.

20:45

Ray and Fleur walked toward the Quidditch pitch.

"Honey, do you know what the trial will be?"  asked Fleur.

Ray nodded: "Yes, the labyrinth. I want you to refuse to participate. This is all a big trap."

"Nnn. I will accept defeat at the very beginning."  said Fleur.

When they reached the site, they saw that it had a lot of low bushes that formed a complex pattern.

"Is this a hedge?" Fleur asked.

"It seems like that."  answered Ray.

"Hey, come here!" Ludo Bagman called cheerfully.

He stood in the middle of the court, and with him Victor Krum and Harry Potter.  Ray and Fleur went to them, stepping over the walls of the hedge. Harry greeted them, Krum nodded.

Greeting them back, they began to look at Bagman.

"Well, what do you say? It's growing healthy? Well done, Hagrid, he planted it. In a month, the height should reach several meters. Well, do you understand what it is?" Bagman said joyfully.

"The Labyrinth."  said Fleur.

"Exactly, the labyrinth! So, the third task is simple. The Cup of Three Wizards will be placed in the center, whoever touches him first will win."  said Bagman.

"Do we just have to go through the labyrinth?"  asked Harry.

"There will be obstacles. Hagrid will prepare all kinds of magical creatures ... and there will also be spells, it will be necessary to get around them ... well, and so on ... Those with more points will be the first to enter the labyrinth. Each of you will have  the opportunity to win, it all depends on how you deal with obstacles. " Bagman answered.

"Well, if there are no questions, then let's go to the castle, something has become colder."  he added.

Fleur and Ray began to leave.

Krum called Harry to talk.  Most likely wants to know about Hermione.  Since his appearance, he has been closely watching her.

Ray knew what they were supposed to see Crouch in forest.  See him one last time.

 _____

June 24 came very quickly.

Ray gathered everyone to talk.

"Fleur, after the start of the test, immediately accept defeat. After that, you will all have to teleport to Peverell Castle."

"Don't you need our help?"  asked Bella.

"No. I want to fight Voldemort and catch some of his slaves." Ray answered.

"Just be careful."  said Daphne.

The girls nodded, supporting Daphne's words.

"Don't worry, I'm stronger than Voldemort."  answered Ray.

 _____

Breakfast in the great hall.

The disciples read the Daily Prophet, in which Rita Skeeter wrote an article about Harry Potter.

She described Harry in all colors as the future Dark Lord.

"The snake is a symbol of dark magic ??"  said Astoria.

"They don't think so in France, although they are still afraid of the owners of the Parseltongue."  said Fleur.

"France, too, suffered from the Voldemort, there is nothing surprising."  said Ray.

"Harry Potter is often mentioned in the newspapers. He needs to learn how to take advantage of it. It doesn't matter if they talk about him badly or well. He needs to take an example from Dumbledore."  said Astoria.

"It will come with experience. Although, now Susan Bones is next to him. She will surely take advantage of all this." Ray added.

At that moment, their conversation was interrupted.

"Mr. Peverell, Miss Delacour, all the participants in the Tournament gather after breakfast in a room adjacent to the hall."  reported McGonagall.

"Shouldn't the test be passed in the evening?"  asked Fleur.

"Of course. The families of the Tournament participants gathered in the room. They are invited to watch the last competition," she replied.

"Do you need an invitation to watch the tournament?" Asked Astoria.

"Yes, you have to pay. But places is limited."  Fleur answered.

After breakfast, they got up and began to walk into the room.

Inside was the Weasley family, the parents of Victor Krum, and of course the Delacour family.

Gabrielle immediately ran up and hugged Ray.

"We haven't seen each other for just an hour."  said Ray softly.

"We have not seen the WHOLE HOUR."  answered Gabrielle.

"Hehehe, my Gabrielle, you are so attached to your future husband."  teased Apolline.

"Maman!" Shouted the red Gabrielle.

"Hahaha."  Everyone laughed together.

Ray noticed that Bill Weasley looks at Fleur from time to time.

Ray went to Fleur, hugged his waist and gently kissed on the lips.

Fleur hugged Ray by the neck and began to kiss in response.

"My son-in-law is very brave."  Apolline said giggling.

Out of the corner of his eye, Ray saw Hermione lightly nudge Harry directly into stomach.

After they completed the kiss, the blushed Fleur hide her head on Ray's chest.

[Not in this life Bill Weasley.  Not in this life.] With the smile of a winner, Ray thought.

Astoria only smiled, she knew how much Ray protects his wives.

Harry led the Weasley family out.

[Despite the fact that they are talked about, they treat Harry very well and do not take his money.] Ray thought.

"Ray, you need to rest before the test."  said Astoria.

"Tory is right, you need to be prepared."  said Gabrielle.

"Then I will return to the bedroom."  said Ray.

And they all went towards the Slytherin dormitory.

 _____

Evening dinner in a great hall.

All the judges sat at the teachers' table; instead of Crouch and Percy was Minister Fudge.

His face was grim.  He guessed something.  Fudge is a very cunning and greedy person, and he is by no means a <Silly Minister>, all this is a mask.

Finally, Dumbledore rose from the table and the whole hall was quiet.

"Ladies and gentlemens, in five minutes I will invite you to go to the Quidditch field, where the third, final competition of the Three Wizards Tournament will begin. Now I ask all participants to follow Mr. Bagman to the stadium."

Rising from their seats, the champions followed Bagman.

They quickly approached the stadium.  The Quidditch pitch has changed beyond recognition.  A dense hedge 6 meters high rose all around the perimeter.  Directly in front of them in the hedge, an opening blackens - the entrance to the labyrinth.  The corridor inside it, formed by a dense shrub, goes into the dark.

"A creepy sight."  said Harry.

Krum nodded at his words.

After 5 minutes, the stadium was filled with spectators.  Ray looked at the Delacour family and Astoria, and then nodded to them.

All professors approached the participants.

"We will patrol outside. If someone gets into trouble and feels that help is needed, send a sheaf of red sparks into the air, and we will immediately come to the rescue. Is everything clear?"  said McGonagall.

The champions nodded.

"Then go ahead!"  said Bagman cheerfully.

"Ladies and gentlemens, the third and final competition of the Three Wizards Tournament is starting! Let me remind you of the current tournament position!

First place Ray Peverell, <Hogwarts>.

In second place is Harry Potter, an independent participant.

In third place is Victor Kram, <Durmstrang>.

In fourth place is Fleur Delacour, <Beauxbaton>. "Bagman said.

The audience applauded loudly.

"So, Mr. Peverell, start on my whistle! Three ... two ... one ..."

He whistled sharply,

Ray immediately entered the labyrinth and began to fly to the Cup.  For him, the labyrinth was not a big problem and after 5 minutes Ray was already next to him.

The cup has already been enchanted as a portal.

Ray cast a spell on himself and waited.

After 3 minutes, Ray saw red sparks fly into the sky.

[Good, Fleur dropped out.  The time has come for the finale.]

 _____

After 10 minutes, he saw Harry arrive and go towards the cup.

As soon as he grabbed it, he immediately disappeared.  Ray went after him.

 _____

Ray and Harry found themselves in an unknown place.  The area around was nothing like Hogwarts. There were no mountains surrounding the castle, it seems they have covered several miles, maybe even a hundred.  They stood in the middle of a dark, densely overgrown cemetery, on the right behind a huge yew, the silhouette of a small church blackened. On the left is a hill on the slope of which is an old beautiful mansion.

"Damn. It was a portkey."  said Harry.

Ray watched from the side and waited for the guests to appear.

<Stupefy>

The flash went right into Harry and he fell to the ground.

A short man, wrapped in a black mantle, walked past the graves.  He had a wand in his right hand, and in his left he carried a bundle.

[Harry's constant vigilance.  Always keep an eye on your surroundings.] Ray thought.

The short man in the cloak laid the bundle on the ground, and dragged Harry to the marble tombstone.  Then he turned it around and leaned it against the stone. The name "TOM RIDDLE" was carved on the tombstone

Pointing his wand at Harry, he used the Incarcero and then removed the stun from him.

"YOU!"  shouted Harry.

He did not answer, but just in case he created even more ropes that tightly bound Harry.  Then he took a black rag from his pocket and put it in Harry's mouth.

Pettegrew dragged a huge cauldron and lit a fire under it.  Ray used a similar cauldron to create a homunculus.

Ray saw a snake crawling nearby, one of the Horcruxes.  But he did not touch her.

The liquid in the boiler was heated quickly.  In less than five minutes, she was already seething, throwing crimson sparks up, as if she had ignited.  The steam became thicker, and soon the figure around the fire turned into a blurry spot.

"Hurry!" A scream was heard from the roll.

The boiling surface of the liquid turned into sparks and sparkled.

"Everything is ready, master." Said Pettigrew.

"It's time ..." said an icy voice.

Pettigrew went to the bundle and picked it up, there was disgust on his face.

Going to the cauldron, he unfolded a bundle inside which was a vile baby.

[What an abomination.  He looks like Botchling(Igosha) from the Witcher game.] Ray thought.

Raising the baby above the cauldron, he threw him into boiling liquid.

The ritual began.

"Father's bone, given without consent, revive your son!"

The ground beneath Harry Potter's feet opened up and white dust flew out.

"Flesh ... servants … dddonated vvvoluntarily ... revive ... your ... master!"

Pettigrew spoke with fear and horror, after which he extended his right hand over the cauldron .... and cut it off.

With a pale face, Pettigrew approached Harry.

"The blood of a foe ... taken by force ... resurrect ... your enemy!"

With a silver dagger, he cut Harry's hand.

Pale, Pettigrew returned to the cauldron and splashed blood into it.  The liquid instantly turned dazzling white. When he finished making the potion, Peter fell to his knees without any strength and immediately fell to the ground.  He lay curled up and moaned softly, holding the stump of his hand.

The cauldron was boiling, sparkling sparks flew in all directions, from their blinding brilliance everything was plunged into impenetrable blackness.

A thin figure began to appear from the steam leaving the boiler.

"Dress me up."  the figure said coldly.

Pettegrew rose from the ground and threw a black mantle over the figure.

All this time, the figure did not take her red eyes from Harry Potter.

Harry was pale.

Voldemort was reborn.

He went to Pettigrew and poked a magic wand into the tattoo on his left arm.

"How many of them will gather their strength and come here when they feel this? And how many fools are there who decide to stay away from here?"  said Voldemort coldly.

He began to go back and forth.

"You, Harry Potter, are standing on the remains of my deceased father. He was a muggle and a fool ... like your dear mom. But they both came in handy for us, weren't they? Your mother died protecting you ... and I killed my father by myself , and look how he helped me, already being a dead man ... "Voldemort laughed.

He began to tell Harry his story.

[Quickly....] Ray thought.

Suddenly the rustle of fluttering robes broke the silence of the night.  Among the graves, under a huge yew, wherever there was a shadow, figures of wizards arose.  They were all masked and had hoods on their heads. One by one, they moved toward Harry and Voldemort ... slowly, carefully, as if not believing their eyes.

Voldemort stood silently in the middle of the cemetery and looked at them.  Finally, one of the Death Eaters fell to his knees, crawled to Voldemort and kissed the hem of his black robes.

[I bet 10 galleons that it is Lucius Malfoy.] Ray thought.

The rest of the Death Eaters did the same.  One by one, they crawled on their knees to Voldemort and kissed his mantle before rising and stepping aside to form a circle.

"Welcome, Death Eaters. Thirteen years ... .. thirteen years have passed since the day we last met. And yet you answered my call as if it were yesterday ... does it mean that we are all still united by the Black Mark? Or not?  "

"I feel….guilty. The air reeked of guilt through the air."

Standing in a circle flinched.

"I see that you are alive and well, your strength has not been exhausted, you arrived so quickly! And I ask myself ... why did this squad of wizards never come to the aid of their master, to whom they swore eternal fidelity?"  said Voldemort coldly.

_____

While they were talking, Ray raised cup and walked over to Harry.

{Do not make any sudden movements.  Speak in your mind.}

{Ray !?  What are you doing here!  Run from here!} Shouted Harry.

Ray: {I will take your fetters off and you will immediately grab the cup.  He will bring you back to Hogwarts. }

 Harry: {But what about you!?}

Ray: {I'll be fine.  I need to chat with our mutual friend.}

Harry: {But ..}

Ray: {I'm much more powerful than you think.  You have to come back! Think of your girls. Now you have a family.  Now you are not alone! Remember this!}

Harry: {I ... I ... I will do it !!  Promise me you'll be back!}

Ray: {I promise.}

_____

"He is now at Hogwarts, my faithful servant, and it was thanks to him that our young friend came here ..." said Voldemort.

"Yes.  Harry Potter kindly joined us to celebrate my rebirth.  I dare even call him my guest of honor."

"I'm not afraid of you, damn lousy lizard!"  shouted Harry.

 Voldemort smiled and did not answer.

There was silence.  The death eater to the right of Pettigrew took a step forward and the voice of Lucius Malfoy came from under the mask.

"Master, we are eager to find out ... we beg you to tell us ... how did you achieve this ... this miracle ... how did you manage to return to us ..."

"Are you an idiot? You don't see that this garbage is now a homunculus!" Said Harry with contempt.

"Harry, Harry, Harry. What rude words you say. You are mistaken, this body is not a homunculus. Thanks to the ritual, I got a body perfect for my soul. Now I am even more powerful than before!"  laughed at Voldemort.

"Perhaps you have become more powerful, but you don't have a nose. I bet you also lost * a magic wand * between your legs. Now you can never use real magic !!!"  shouted Harry.

Some death eaters began to shake, probably restraining laughter.

"Little bastard. Laugh, laugh. Your mother bitch, too, was brave until I killed her."  said Voldemort with anger.

Ray began to wave and set about 10 different barriers.

<Protego Diabolica>

A circle of blue flame surrounded all those present.

Many death eaters wanted to escape, but the apparation did not work.

"Who!?"  shouted Voldemort.

A figure began to come out of the fire.

"Long time no see ."  Ray said.

Many death eaters have widened eyes.  They recognized the famous Lord Peverell.

Ray waved his hand toward Peter Pettigrew and he disappeared.

After which he directed his hand at Harry and he freed himself.

"Come back. Tell everyone that Voldemort was reborn. As soon as you see Alastor Moody, immediately stun him. This is not Moody, this is Barty Crouch Jr. Do everything so that everyone present can see it. Dumbledore and Fudge can try to hush up  this is the case. The more people see this, the better! " said Ray.

Harry nodded and grabbed the cup.

"NOOOO. IT IS YOU AGAIN !!! I WILL KILL YOU."  shouted Voldemort.

Ray used shields and dodged spells.

"You cannot escape. So watch your master's defeat. Pitiful slaves."

_____

Many of the death eaters hide behind the graves and defended themselves, some tried to attack Ray.

<Fiendfyre>

Voldemort caused a huge wave of fire, the flame seemed to consist of many fiery animals.

<Wall of water>

Ray created a wall of water, about 30 meters long.

*Boom*

*Boom*

<Avada Kedavra>

<Bombarda maxima>

 <Crucio>

Many spells flew into Ray.

Ray began to create walls of earth in front of him.

*Explosion*

Ray saw Avery creeping up to him on the right side.

<Avada Kedavra>

"Die!"  He screamed.

<Avis>

Ray called a flock of birds that blocked the green beam.

<Stupefy>

<Incarcero>

<Silencio>

Ray immediately stunned and tied Avery up, after which he disappeared.

Ray sent him to the prison cells of Peverell Castle.

<Avada Kedavra>

A huge green beam flew into Ray, it was Voldemort, only he could create such an Avada.

<Wall of earth>

Ray created 3 walls.

*Boom*

*Boom*

*Boom*

Avada demolished two walls but could not break through the third.

[Is it Avada Kedavra or reducto?  He's really good at it.] Ray thought.

Voldemort began to get serious.

Skeletons and various undead began to appear from the earth.

"Hahaha. Here is the power of the necromancers!"  he shouted.

Ray began to manipulate the blue fire.

* Roarrr *

A dragon from a blue flame flew straight into the undead and completely burned it.

<Wave of Darkness>

A stream of magic of darkness began to fly towards Ray.

<Ring of Light>

*Flash*

Bright light began to illuminate the entire cemetery.

This magic suppressed Voldemort.

<Spear of Light>

Ray immediately threw a spear at Voldemort.

"ARGhhhhh .. BASTARD!"

The spear tore off his hand.

<Hellfire Tornado>

Voldemort shouted after he drew the fire runes into the air.

A huge fiery tornado appeared in front of Ray.

In the distance you could see the death eaters.

Death Eaters stood in a group and defended themselves against everything.  But even so, they barely managed.

"Monsters. Damn. Damn. Damn. We will die if they continue!"  Malfoy screamed.

"What can we do? Apparition doesn't work, portkeys too!"  shouted McNair

"Idiot. You will kill your slaves."  said Ray.

"Spit! I can find new ones."  shouted Voldemort.

"Tch."

Raising both hands to the sky, Ray said coldly.

<Solar Pillar>

A huge column of light absorbed the flame, leaving behind a crater with a diameter of at least 30 meters.

"Do you think that's all I can do!?"

Voldemort shouted and drew dozens of runes.

*Trembling*

*Trembling*

A giant bone dragon crawled right out of the ground.  Dark miasms diverged in all directions from this dragon.

"This is the strongest magic! No one in this world can resist it."  said Voldemort.

"We will die. We will surely die."  the eaters said somewhere on the outskirts of the cemetery.

"Do you consider yourself the strongest? Do you really think that no one can defeat you?" Ray asked.

"Of course! I spent decades searching for ancient magic. I strengthened my body and soul with a huge number of rituals. I am much more powerful than Dumbledore or the other bastards who hide in their caves. If not for Hogwarts, which gives Dumbledore a huge supply of magical powers, I would have long ago  destroyed him. " shouted Voldemort.

"Perhaps you are right. But you are mistaken in thinking that there are no wizards in this world stronger than you. I cannot kill you because you are not my archenemy. But I will show you strength, I will show you the power of REAL MAGIC!"

Ray raised his hand, pointing it at the dragon.  Lightning covered Ray's hand.

 <BARARAQ SAIQA>

*Rumble*

*Rumble*

A huge lightning completely destroyed the dragon and flew into the sky.

* Bzzzz *

* Bzzzz *

The night receded.  This attack lit the earth for many kilometers.

Ray felt like he lost ⅓ from all his mana.

[This is the strongest attack I could create.] Ray thought.

Voldemort looked wide-eyed.

Death Eaters sat on the ground and looked at Ray.  There was horror in their eyes.

"I can easily kill you. But another person will do it." Ray said coldly, staring directly into Voldemort's eyes.

Ray's eyes burned with a bloody color, his pupil became vertical.

For the first time in a long time, Voldemort felt fear ... ... the fear of death ....

He was afraid of death, which is why he created the horcruxs.

This also applies to you.

Ray turned to the Death Eaters.

The blue fire still burned and protected this place from the outside world.

Ray raised a hand to the sky and all the flames began to return to him.

*Flash*

With a flash, Ray disappeared.

The Death Eaters and Voldemort immediately used the apparation and left this place.

 _____

Ray found himself in a clearing in front of the labyrinth.

"He's back! I'm telling you!" He heard Harry scream.

"The boy is raving, you need to take him away."  said Minister Fudge.

Moody walked up to Harry and said, "Let's go boy, we need to leave."

Harry remembered Ray's words and immediately pointed his wand at Moody.

"What are you doing!" Fudge shouted at him.

"This is not Moody! This is an imposter! It is thanks to him that Voldemort returned!"  shouted Harry.

"Do not be silly, he could not return, he is dead!" Fudge's assistants shouted.

*Flash*

A red flash flew into Moody.

*Knock*

"Mr. Peverell, how to understand this!" Screamed a short woman in pink clothes.

"Shut up."  a cold voice rang out across the clearing.

The audience immediately shut up.

Silence enveloped the clearing.

"Yes, how dare you! I ..." this pink toad tried to say something .... but ..

 <Crucio>

Ray said coldly, pointing his hand at her.

"AAAAAAAA!"  Umbridge screamed, and it was she.

"Aurors! Grab him immediately!"  Shouted Fudge.

Wands started pointing at Ray when a voice rang out.

"I do not think so."

Daphne, dressed in her combat clothing, directed her epee at the ministry employees.  Hundreds of icicles flew over her head.

"Really."  There was a quiet voice when Bella appeared from Fudge shadow and pressed the dagger to his neck.

"Please calm down. You can discuss everything."  Dumbledore said, trying to take control of the situation.

"I don't think so, they dare threaten our husband."

There was a girl in the sky, dressed in a fiery dress, in her hands was a huge poleax, covered in flames.

She stood on a fire platform.

Harry, Hermione, Luna, Susan and even Ginny walked up to Ray and stood next to him.

"Since everyone has calmed down, let's talk. Susan, is your aunt here now?"  said Ray.

"Yes, I'm here Mr. Peverell." Came a voice from the audience stands.

"Glad to meet you, Miss Bones."  said Ray.

"You can call me Amelia. Susan talked a lot about you."  Amelia answered.

"Girls, you can lower your weapons." Ray said, looking at his wives.

They nodded and disappeared, most likely returning to Avalon.

* Swing *

Ray waved his hand and 2 bodies fell to the ground.

"I present to you, Peter Pettigrew and Avery Jr.. Death Eaters and Voldemort's servants. Amelia, I think you know what to do with them. Having Pettigrew will help in the Sirius Black case and remove all charges against him."  said Ray.

"Peter Pettigrew!"

"But he must be dead!"

"Does that mean Sirius Black didn't kill him !?"

0The audience shouted.

Fudge was snow white.  He realized that this was the end of his career as Minister of Magic.

Harry had a smile; he was happy that Sirius would be free.

"Voldemort really returned. You may not believe my words, use the truth potion on Avery and Pettigrew. They will tell you a lot."  said Ray.

At that moment, Moody began to writhe and twitch.  His body began to change.

"BARTY CROUCH JUNIOR !?"

Auror shouted.

The audience began to make noise and scream.

"Hahahahaha, you can lock me in Azkaban. My lord is back, he will set me free! Hahahaha."  Barty laughed insanely.

Ray went up to him and kicked him in the face, breaking his nose and knocking out his teeth.

"I do not think so."  said Ray.

Ray looked at Amelia.

"Amelia, I think you should interrogate Minister Fudge. Doesn't it seem suspicious to you, how did he deny the Dark Lord's rebirth?

Amelia smiled and answered:

"That's a good offer, Mr. Peverell. Aurors! Grab Minister Fudge."  shouted Amelia.

"No! You cannot! I am Minister of Magic! I order you to set me free!"  shouted Fudge.

"You have no right to order us. Our boss Amelia Bones, not you."  said the auror, Kingsley.

Reporters wrote something in their notebooks, took photos.  Tomorrow all magical Britain will know what is happening.

Dumbledore watched it all.  He had sad eyes.

Of course, he knew that Sirius was innocent.  He knew that Alastor Moody was Barty Crouch Jr. using a Polyjuice potion.  He did all this so that Harry could defeat Voldemort. Dumbledore knew that Voldemort could not be defeated while Harry Potter was alive.  That is why he sent him to the Muggle relatives. He wanted Harry to grow up without love and find love in the form of a magical world. Then he would gladly sacrifice himself for the benefit of all.

{Harry, we'll meet in a month.  I will send you a portkey. Take your brides with you, Sirius and Amelia.} Ray mentally said and returned to Avalon.

 _____

A month later.

The Ministry of Magic has been fully verified.  Dozens of Voldemort spies were found in all departments of the ministry.

Magical Britain was swept by chaos.

<The Dark Lord is back!>

<Sirius Black - Justified!>

<Peter Pettigrew is the traitor who killed the Potter family.>

These were the headlines in the newspapers.

Amelia Bones became the new Minister of Magic.  She immediately took control.

 ______

Peverell Castle.

Conference room.

At the round table were: Ray, Harry, Hermione, Luna, Susan, Ginny, Amelia and Sirius.

Ray and the girls have already said goodbye to Fleur's parents.  And they returned to France.

Ray's wives were waiting for him on Avalon.

"Now there are people on whom the future of Magical Britain depends .... and of the entire Magical World."  said Ray.

"You speak as if you will disappear tomorrow."  Hermione giggled.

Everyone began to chuckle softly, all but Luna.

"You really can't stay? Ray ..." Luna asked sadly, tears appeared in her eyes.

Everyone stopped laughing ... they realized that this was not a joke.

"Sorry Luna ... but I really can't stay in this world."  said Ray.

"World...." repeated Hermione.

"You should know, not Voldemort is your enemy. Oh no…. Your enemy is ... Muggles."  said Ray.

"Muggles?" Asked Sirius.

Ray nodded: "Even several centuries ago, during the witch hunt, they easily destroyed wizards. You can't imagine what they are capable of now. Grindelwald knew about this, that's why he wanted to start a war. He was a worthy leader. But…. he was stopped. "said Ray.

"You mean that Grindelwald did the right thing?" Asked Susan.

"Unlike Voldemort, he had a goal, he didn't kill wizards just like that. That is why he had so many followers. And he did all this for the benefit of the wizarding world."  said Ray.

"I'll tell you…..if nothing changes, then the magic will completely disappear after 100 years. Perhaps the Muggles will destroy the wizards much earlier. Even now, Muggles who have power know about wizards. And they certainly have ways to resist them."  He added.

"But what shall we do….?"  asked Harry.

"Fight. Take everything into your own hands."  answered Ray.

"Do we need to continue the work of Grindelwald?" Asked Susan.

"Optional. First you need to take control of Magic Britain into your own hands. After that, you need to create a special squad that will collect information and kill the Muggle leaders. You do not need to organize genocide, you need to control your opponents and take up all the leadership positions. You can  to wage war between countries, then the Muggles will destroy each other. And then a new world will be reborn from the ashes. Then you can unite both worlds and magic will begin to return to this world. " Ray said and began to get up from his seat.

"These are my gifts to you. In the boxes of the ring, with which you can teleport directly to the island of Peverell. In the flasks of the potion, thanks to which you can completely heal and live 1000 years. The potion will return you youth."  said Ray and put eight boxes with rings and 8 potions on the table.

"But….there are seven of us here?" Said Ginny.

Ray removed the ring from his finger and threw it to Harry.  Harry instinctively caught him.

Ray also took out the bottle and pulled the memories out of his head.

"Now you, new Lord Peverell. Be sure to collect all three deathly hallows.

In this bottle are the memories of my battle with Voldemort.  You can use them as you wish. "Ray said.

"In this chest, four out of six Voldemort horcruxs, Dumbledore will help you find the remaining two.

The chest cannot be opened.  Destroy it with fiendfyre before the final battle. "Ray said and put a small chest on the table.

Ray did not yet know that due to these recollections, in the future he will be referred to as the <Father of Magic>.

Everyone was silent, they did not know what to say.  Harry looked at the ring and clenched it in a fist.

"Follow me."  said Ray.

"The castle's library contains a wealth of knowledge. There are books from around the world in this library. I think you should manage this knowledge correctly. Dragons and acromantulas live on the island. They obey the Lord and his wives." Ray said while they walked into the garden.

At the mention of the library, Hermione had stars in her eyes.

When Ray spoke of dragons and acromantulas, Luna was happy.  She already planned what other animals should be settled on the island.

Stepping into a clearing in the garden, Ray stopped.

Everyone else stopped behind him.

Ray raised a hand.

{Great Sage use 40% of Avalon's mana and create a crystal that will saturate this world.} Ray mentally said.

{As you wish, Master.} Answered the Sage.

*Radiance*

Blue Crystal flew a meter from the ground.

Its height was about 20 meters.  Diameter is about 10 meters.

Everyone widened their eyes when this Crystal appeared, they immediately felt that there was more mana.

"Ray. What is this?" Asked Harry.

"A mana crystal. It will bring magic back to this world. That should be your secret. Never tell it, never and to anyone.It's best for you all to make an oath." Ray said earnestly.

They made magical oath to keep this secret.

"It's time to say goodbye."  said Ray.

Luna ran to Ray and hugged him.

*Cry*

"I will miss.….older brother."  Luna said with tears in her eyes.

Ray stroked her head.

"No need to be upset, life….it is very unpredictable….maybe we say goodbye not forever."  he said softly.

Everyone had tears in their eyes.

Sirius wept the most.  They made friends very quickly.  And he was sad to lose a new friend.

Amelia hugged Sirius and cried.  Ray did a lot for them. He helped Amelia to return her lover, gave a potion with which she can restore youth ... but most importantly ... now she can become pregnant.  She lost the main joy of being a woman, on one task, the spell hit her just below the navel ...

They all began to recall how Ray helped them.

Harry came closer to him.

Ray patted his shoulder.

"You must be strong. You must be a worthy leader. Now you have a family, so give your family a decent place to live."  Ray said with a smile and began to fade.

Tears flowed from Harry Potter's eyes.  He hugged Luna and began stroking her back.

"I promise Ray. I will save this world."  he said softly.

"We .... we will save ..." Luna said quietly.

"Luna is right. Now you are not alone. And we will do it together."  Wiping away the tears, said Ginny.

Hermione and Susan nodded.

Sirius and Amelia smiled.

Harry looked up at the sky.

"Let's do it." He said.

They do not yet know that they will change this world in the future.  They will save him, return the magic. And they will declare Ray the God of Magic. They will show memories of his battle against Voldemort, wizards will begin to worship Ray as their god.  It is because of this that this world will be reborn and will become part of the worlds that Ray will control in the future.

That will be the salvation of this world ...

Somewhere far in space.

"My son. You worked hard. Even if you did not participate in many events directly, it was thanks to you that this world came to life. This is a small step on your path to becoming a true god. I am proud of you and I am glad that we met."
