Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 535

He lent it to Krum.

This infuriated Harry.

"He knew all along that I wanted gill sac grass; he did it on purpose."

He was also afraid that I would steal the gill sac grass, or that Darren would beg Dumbledore to hand it over, so he did this.

He gave all the gill sac grass to Krum; he couldn't possibly use it all!

Yes!

That's very likely the case.

But Harry's mistake was not asking Snape for gill sac grass beforehand.

Hermione scolded Harry for a long time because of this, to the point that Harry got angry.

But they had no solution.

Even Darren was at a loss for words, finding it both funny and frustrating.

Because during this period of time, even he didn't have gill sac grass.

He genuinely hadn't expected Harry to be so useless.

Not to mention the little spells he came up with and invented himself, Harry hadn't even fully mastered the basic Bubble Head Charm.

After all, gill sac grass looks too ugly when eaten.

Although Harry is his counterpart.

However, the contrast is so strong that some people might think he deliberately didn't help Harry.

But he really couldn't do it anymore; Harry just hadn't fully mastered it...

He should have told them the secret of the golden egg sooner, and then let Harry practice earlier.

But he really didn't expect it at the time.

He remembered Harry's Summoning Charm, but didn't he eventually learn it? Why was the Bubble Charm so difficult?

Fortunately.

They weren't the only ones who wanted to help Harry; there was someone else.

Moody's.

He will definitely help Harry...

Chapter 466 Take it!

It was the night before Harry's match.

Moody found Darren.

He handed Darren a handful of gill sac grass.

Darren looked shocked.

Moody feigned awkwardness and said, "Well, when Snape gave Krum Gillscapulae that day, I guessed that you and Harry might be able to use it."

So I used a little trick to get one from him.

I was thinking of giving this to you or Harry these past few days.

But knowing that you and Harry are both fair and just students, and that you are not very willing to ask the professor for help, I feel a little embarrassed to give it to you.

But... take it!

I couldn't bear to see my alma mater's students lose. This wasn't just a professor's help; it was a senior student's help—a senior student from a long time ago!

Moody smiled.

Although his face is ferocious, he looks like a kind person with a cold exterior but a warm heart.

If Darren hadn't known he was Barty Crouch Jr., he probably would have thought he was like Moody.

No wonder Dumbledore didn't suspect him.

They really convincingly portrayed Moody's.

Of course, Darren couldn't possibly know these things now.

He then showed a grateful expression.

"Professor, you are so kind. I wonder if you have anything you want... By the way, do you need this leg removed?"

I know that your inability to grow is caused by a highly toxic substance.

But I want to give it a try. If it grows back, maybe you can rejoin the Auror ranks!

"No!"

Moody blurted it out.

Then, as if he knew what Darren was thinking, he acted as if he knew.

He smiled and said, "You don't need to do these things for me. I'm just doing what every Hogwarts student should do."

I'm not like Snape; I just want you all to be alright.

As for my leg, I don't want it to heal, because it's a symbol of my honor, like the scar on my face!

He said firmly.

It seemed as if it truly was for glory.

In reality, he simply didn't want to disrupt his plans.

After all, once you've taken some potions, you can't take Polyjuice Potion anymore.

How can he continue with the plan then?

Moreover, his leg is normal; it's Moody's leg, not his.

Why does he care so much?

Darren certainly knew what he was thinking.

He was just teasing Barty Crouch Jr. and trying to maintain his public image.

Because of Moody's insistence.

So Darren had no choice but to nod in agreement.

But Crouch's expression, as if he was determined to do something for Moody, made him regret his decision.

He should have chosen someone else and sent the gill sac grass instead.

But he didn't care.

Who told him to already know Darren so well?

He believed that Darren would not pose any difficult challenges for him.

Darren certainly wouldn't give him a difficult task.

He was just trying to scare Moody.

It was just to express my gratitude.

In fact, after he got the gill sac grass, he couldn't wait to go to Harry and become his father.

Harry was still practicing the Bubble Head Charm in the Gryffindor common room.

This was the only thing he could do.

After all, all he could do now was pray that his head-bubbling spell would allow him to stay underwater longer.

Hermione and Ron were there to guide him.

They were forcing Darren to go back to sleep because it was so late.

Although Darren was in good health, they always thought he was fragile and needed protection.

When they saw Darren reappear, they assumed he was still worried about him.

Harry even felt a surge of deep regret and indignation. Thankfully...

Darren promptly produced the gill sac grass.

"This was given to me by Professor Moody... He probably thought that the two of us should need to use it, and I came over as soon as I got it."

I am so grateful... I even wanted to help Professor Moody grow his legs back.

Unfortunately, he rejected me, but I can't forget such a kindness. I need to think carefully about what Professor Moody really needs..."

Darren's words deeply moved Harry, Hermione, and Ron.
