The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

July 29, 1999, at the Port of Southampton.

A passenger ship from Stockholm docked at the port, and countless travelers flocked from the passenger ship.

A strange man in a yellow and black cloak can easily attract the attention of other pedestrians... He holds a few tarot cards in his hands and a crystal ball hanging from his waist, looking mysterious.

Zacharias Smith is the name of this weirdo.

Logically speaking, since he graduated from Hogwarts two months ago, he should have received special prophecy training at the Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

But he appeared in London, and there was only one fundamental reason——

That's what it's like to be in a big wedding!

...

Zacharias didn't care about the eyes of others, he looked at a note in his hand and muttered to himself:

"Hampshire, Southampton, Eastleigh Road, No. 86...should be here!"

Zacharias, who lowered his head, was inattentive and knocked down hard with another person.

"Ouch!" Zacharias couldn't help covering his forehead.

The person he hit seemed to be in more pain, because the crystal ball hanging from Zacharias' waist seemed to have touched his lower body...

"Are you all right, sir..." Zacharias quickly stretched out a hand and asked with some concern.

Suddenly, his movements froze in mid-air, and he froze as well.

"You are...you are...Professor Lockhart?" he called out in surprise.

"Shh!" The man on the ground stood up like a carp, turned over, and at the same time made a "shh" gesture to Zacharias.

"It's been a long time, Professor Lockhart!" Zacharias said excitedly, "Are you also here for the wedding?"

"Of course..." Gilderoy Lockhart nodded, and whispered at the same time, "Keep quiet, I'm a wanted criminal now..."

"Jon actually invited you?" Zacharias seemed curious.

"I have a very harmonious relationship with their family!" Lockhart said very proudly.

Then, he swaggered into No. 86 Eastleigh Road.

Mr. Zacharias Smith looked at Lockhart's back and pondered...

"I've got to think about it, what's Gilderoy Lockhart's reward?" he said to himself.

...

But Zacharias finally gave up on this idea. After all, today is his best friend Jon's wedding, so don't get him into trouble.

What's more, Gilderoy Lockhart should also be a guest invited by Jon.

In the yard of No. 86 Easterly Road, a huge white tent has already been set up.

And in the tent, many musicians in white robes had arrived at the wedding an hour earlier, holding their assortment of golden instruments.

Zacharias saw magical blue smoke wafting from the scene, as if in a fairyland.

And behind him, from the entrance of the tent, rows of delicate golden seats were neatly placed on both sides of the long purple carpet.

Moreover, the pillars of the tent are also coiled with flowers of various colors, which is completely decorated.

A large bouquet of golden balloons adorned the innermost side of the tent, above the spot where the newlyweds took their vows.

Outside the field, bees and butterflies in twos and threes are leisurely circling and playing in the lawn and bushes... everything seems incomparably harmonious and peaceful.

Zacharias saw many acquaintances, such as Hogwarts graduates.

Every house has it, whether it's Hufflepuff, Slytherin, or Gryffindor and Ravenclaw... Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley are standing hand in hand, and Weasley The Sly boys were beside him, Malfoy and Parkinson, Madeleine and Selwyn... all familiar faces.

Zacharias also saw Hermione Granger, her complexion was very poor, her clothes looked unseemly, and even a little dirty... It seems that she is rumored to be engaged in the liberation of house elves , has been eating and living with house-elves, maybe it's true...

"Hannah!" Finally, Zacharias saw the Hufflepuff friends.

Hannah Abbott waved at him, with Neville Longbottom following behind her.

Ernie MacMillan is still as badass as ever; and Cedric Diggory is still handsome, with Ravenclaw's Cho Chang standing next to him.

...

Apart from Hogwarts graduates, there were many faces of middle-aged and elderly wizards in the tent.

Like the members of the Order of the Phoenix, they're almost all there; they're gathered around Alastor Moody and Kingsley Shacklebolt.

There are also many high-ranking members of the Ministry of Magic, including Minister Amelia Burns, and Secretary Rufus Scrimgeour.

And the teachers of Hogwarts, this need not be said.

Also, the newlyweds' families... Eric and Julie Hart, Lady Diana Greengrass, and the bride's sister, Daphne Greengrass...

In the most prominent positions in the tent, there were also two weird old men sitting.

I don't know why, except for the bald one... Zacharias always felt that another old man with white hair looked familiar...

It's just that the two sides are far apart and can't see clearly.

...

Hogwarts' vice-principal, Professor Minerva McGonagall, approached the white-haired old man, and she couldn't believe her eyes.

"You...you...you are..." Professor McGonagall said tremblingly.

"Long time no see, Minerva..." Albus Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Merlin's beard...you still..."

"Yes, I'm sorry I haven't told you all this time, because I want to completely let go of my past..." Albus Dumbledore said gently, "I didn't die at the time, Jon saved me at the last moment. Get off me..."

"...I didn't intend to appear in front of you at first... It's a pity that Jon insisted on inviting me to his wedding, and invited me and my friends to be his witnesses!"

Dumbledore seemed to remember something: "By the way, Minerva... I should introduce you, this is Gellert..."

The bald old man bowed lightly to Professor McGonagall quite elegantly.

"Gu... Gellert..." Professor Minerva McGonagall was almost taken aback.

Her hands were shaking slightly.

Because she recognized this old man who seemed harmless to humans and animals... His real identity was the black devil who once took countless lives in his hands——

Gellert Grindelwald!

...

The wedding officially began, and Zacharias stopped chatting with friends.

"Ladies and gentlemen," a very magnetic voice sounded, it was the old man whom Zacharias found familiar just now, "please stand up."

Everyone present, wizards and Muggles alike, stood up.

And the gray-haired old man walked up to Jon and Astoria: "Today we gather together to witness the heaven-sent marriage of the two newcomers..."

"What a beautiful bride!" Hannah commented in a low voice.

"Okay, Jon Eric Hart, please join hands with Astoria Alice Greengrass..." the gray-haired old man continued.

In the front row, the handkerchiefs of Mrs. Hart and Mrs. Greengrass were already soaked with tears of happiness.

The bride's sister, Daphne Greengrass, was also in tears.

The sound of sniffling like a trumpet also sounded in the back row. No need to ask, Professor Hagrid, the future dean of Gryffindor College, had already taken out his iconic tablecloth-sized handkerchief and started sobbing.

Many girls also became tearful!

"... Now, I declare that you are officially married!" the gray-haired old man finally announced.

On the side, the bald-headed old man waved his wand over the heads of Jon and Astoria, and fantastic golden and silver stars rose and circled around them.

With the sound of applause, those golden balloons exploded one after another, turning into happy flying birds and golden wall clocks floating in the air, and the wonderful music sounded immediately.

The applause was like a thunderous version, continuous.

The gray-haired old man and the bald old man waved their wands at the same time.

A wonderful scene happened, the white tent disappeared immediately, and the seats they had just sat on flew up.

They fly into the sky and transform into gorgeous golden vaults, which is breathtaking.

Then, a little golden light spread from the center of the original tent to the surroundings, and the situation under their feet began to change suddenly——

Finally turned into a giant dance floor!

House-elves popping up here and there, serving pumpkin juice, butterbeer and Coca-Cola on silver platters...

The bride and groom walked onto the dance floor arm in arm.

But they didn't rush to lead the dance, but hugged each other tightly——

"Jon, I love you!" Astoria said softly.

"Me too!" Jon nodded.
