Chapter 297 Dad will support you(1/4)

"The Daily Prophet's front page headline states that yesterday the Ministry of Magic used the power of the second Philosopher's Stone to resurrect the hero who died gloriously against the Death Eaters during the First Wizarding War - Gideon Prewett
!"
"Thos, the maker of the second magic stone, has brought unprecedented impact to the entire magic world!"
"Nicolas Flamel, the maker of the first Philosopher's Stone, publicly admitted that Sous's attainments in the field of alchemy had surpassed his own."
"Congratulations to the rising star and genius in the British wizarding world for officially reaching the top and becoming the greatest alchemist of our time!"
"The ministers of magic of the seventeen countries are urgently negotiating with Fudge, hoping to obtain part of the use rights of this magic stone through a transaction."
"The famous French wizard family offered a sky-high price of three million gold galleons, just hoping to buy a piece of magic mercury made from the magic stone to resurrect their family's heirs who died in accidents."
"The Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has officially issued an invitation, hoping that Lord Soth can come for academic exchanges."
"Sir Merlin unanimously decided to award Soth the first-class medal. The Alchemist Association invited Soth to become the chief of the organization. The International Federation of Wizards also announced that it would absorb him as an honorary member."
"The largest potion and alchemy items company in Europe wants to spend a high price to purchase the rights to Soth's image as its new logo."
……
As countless newspapers and magazines were circulated wildly in the auditorium on the first floor of Hogwarts in the early morning, students in the seventh grade collectively fell into complete madness.
Just as Rita Skeeter expected, as the true purpose of the second Philosopher's Stone was revealed, fame, wealth, power and high status all sprung up like mushrooms after rain.
After all, for wizards, the power of resurrection is like the Muggle world suddenly inventing a good medicine that can cure all terminal diseases, and it will inevitably cause a huge sensation.
This sensation was not limited to the British wizarding world, but quickly spread throughout Europe and even across the ocean.
There is no doubt that Zuo Si is completely famous this time.
If the introduction of magic scrolls and spell storage technology last year was only regarded as a rising star, making everyone full of expectations for its future, then now he has become the top authority and master in the field of alchemy.p>
After all, even Nico Flamel publicly admitted that Zuo Si had surpassed himself in the field of alchemy, and even pioneered the use of some unprecedented knowledge and technology in the production of the second magic stone.
Based on this alone, no one dares to raise any doubts except that someone can successfully create the third magic stone.
So even though Zuo Si is still a second-year student at Hogwarts, no one will treat him as a student anymore.
At least not the officials of the Ministry of Magic, nor the members of the big families, nor the professors in the school.
"Resurrection? Resurrection from the dead? Could it be that the Daily Prophet printed an entertainment joke in the wrong place today?"
George stared at the newspaper in his hand with his mouth open, and then pinched the thigh of the twin brother next to him to make sure he was not dreaming or hallucinating.
"Ah!!! Bastard! Why are you pinching my thigh? You're pinching your own!"
Fred suddenly let out a scream, and even the omelette he was holding fell to the ground.
"Hey, I'm sorry, I'm a little afraid of pain." George explained with a playful smile.
"Asshole! I'll fight you!"
"Come on! Who is afraid of whom!"
Soon, the two lively couples were wrestling with each other as usual, smearing butter, cream, peanut butter, ketchup and other things on each other's faces, which immediately attracted many people to boo and laugh.
Because everyone knows that the fight between the Weasley twins will never affect the relationship and feelings between them, but is closer to a kind of joking nonsense.
However, as the elder brother, Percy obviously didn't like these two younger brothers who were messing around in school all day. He frowned subconsciously, then picked up the newspaper and glanced at it twice.
After a while, he noticed the row of names marked in bold letters, and immediately exclaimed: "Wait! The name Gideon Prewett sounds a bit familiar. Damn it! He...he is
Our uncle! Mom mentioned him before!"
"What? This resurrected dead man is our uncle!"
Ron was stunned when he heard this. His mind instantly recalled his parents' reaction yesterday morning, and he suddenly understood the truth.
It turns out that the reason my mother shed tears of excitement was not because a relative in the family had passed away, but because she was coming back from the dead.
Of course you will cry with joy when you meet your loved ones who have passed away.
"That's right! You weren't born yet, and George and Fred were still young. They don't remember Uncle Gedion at all, but I still have some impression of him." Percy said with a hint of emotion in his tone.
After all, when he was a child, it happened to be when the First Wizarding War was at its most intense.
The two sides have completely torn off the last disguise and are engaged in the most terrifying and brutal fight.
Almost every few days we hear news of someone being killed in action.
Especially when the news came back that his two uncles had died in the war, Percy remembered seeing his mother hiding in the kitchen alone and crying for a long time. Her eyes were red and swollen for several days.
Ron nodded slightly: "I see. So...our family owes Soth a big favor this time?"
"It's more than just a favor. Do you know what it means to be resurrected from the dead? He is now a big figure in the entire UK, no, he should be able to influence the magic world in the entire Europe and even the Americas."
There was naked and undisguised envy in Percy's tone.
There is no way not to be envious!
You must know that his goal in life is to enter the Ministry of Magic after graduation to gain power and do something successful.
But now, Zuo Si has easily obtained everything he could not even imagine.
It's a pity that Percy tried to get closer to Zuo Si in the last semester, and his little plan to establish friendship failed, and the other party didn't even bother to talk to him.
This caused the somewhat arrogant Percy to suffer a huge blow to his self-confidence for a long time.
But today he finally understood why Zuo Si always had a very cold attitude towards most students in school.
Because with Zuo Si's talent and talent, there is no need to waste time with these naive students in the school.
Only senior bureaucrats in the Ministry of Magic and well-known wizards from all over the world are qualified to communicate with them.
"By the way, did you see Harry this morning?"
Ron glanced at the Gryffindor House table and found that he did not see his friend.
Percy nodded slightly: "I saw it. When he was going downstairs, he was called to the office by Professor Snape. It seemed that he was preparing to talk about something more important and serious."
"Snape?"
Ron frowned immediately and quickly turned his attention to the relatively empty table in the corner. Sure enough, he found that Zuo Si was not there either. Only Hermione was sitting on the chair, yawning and drinking milk.
In fact, he had no idea that at this moment in the office underground of the castle, Snape had decided to no longer hide and tuck in, but to have a showdown with Harry Potter.
As for Zuo Si, he just wanted to come and have a good time. He sat silently throughout the whole process and watched this family ethics drama that could be on the eight o'clock prime time slot.
"Potter, have you read today's newspaper?" Snape asked, breaking the silence first.
"Uh... not yet, Professor." Harry answered cautiously.
He couldn't understand at all what kind of serious illness this Potions teacher who kept targeting him last semester had started to change his attitude this semester.
Especially the eyes with which a father looks at his son make the Savior feel uncomfortable every time they meet.
"Here, read it, and we'll talk after you finish it."
As he spoke, Snape threw a newspaper that had just been delivered this morning on the table.
Out of curiosity, Harry subconsciously picked it up and glanced at it, and immediately saw the contents of the front page headlines, as well as Rita Skeeter's bottomless praise of Zuo Si throughout the article.
Especially the eye-catching title "Resurrection from the Dead", he seemed to understand something immediately. His face was full of shock and disbelief, and at the same time, a chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
"You...you resurrected my mother? Is that why you said those words in Potions class before?"
The savior suddenly stood up from the chair and stared at Zuo Si who was drinking lemon tea.
Although due to his age, he is easily deceived and fooled by others, it does not mean he is a fool.
"No, dear Harry, I did not resurrect your mother, but Professor Snape personally resurrected his beloved.
What's more, haven't you always longed to live with your mother who loves you?
Now, this wish can come true.
Although it may be slightly different from what you expected.
But I believe all this will be solved when I meet Ms. Lily."
Zuo Si tried to comfort him, pretending to be watching the fun and not afraid of any trouble.
Because the scene he wants to see most is about to take place.
"What about my father?" Harry asked subconsciously.
Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders innocently: "I said, your father is not a likable guy.
And I’m not familiar with him, so why should I spend so much effort to resurrect a stranger?
What's more, if the death time exceeds ten years, even if you are resurrected, you will lose a lot of memory, which is reflected in your mother.
She even forgot that she was married and had a child like you. Even her childhood memories were slowly restored with the help of Professor Snape.
So if you want to resurrect all your parents and live together as a family, give up this idea as soon as possible.
Because all of their most precious memories have been lost, and there is no possibility of getting them back.
But Ms. Lily and Professor Snape are different. They are childhood sweethearts and playmates who grew up together. Many memories can be traced back to their childhood.
Therefore, feelings will naturally develop slowly during the recovery process, and then they will eventually come together.
Otherwise, what do you think Professor Snape’s purpose is for calling you here today?
To be continued...
