Elwyn and Hermione talked about the current situation for a while and learned more about the Sun ruins.
These things were all written in the newspaper. Hermione moved the Daily Prophet and Hogwarts Magic for the past two months to Elwyn and piled them up into a small mountain. Dragged down by the previous false reports, the Daily Prophet seemed to feel that they couldn't compete with Hogwarts Magic in reporting on domestic affairs. They used their advantages and began to vigorously develop their overseas business.
They published a lot about the attacks around the world and the Sun ruins.
In the latest issue of the Daily Prophet, Elwyn saw the final results of the Sun ruins.
Just like the illusion he saw in his sleep, that terrible weapon destroyed the entire ruins. The gods fell, the buildings collapsed, and countless gravel poured back, burying the place. No one could enter again. This cage of the gods built by Ramses II, after completing its mission, completely withdrew from the stage of history.
Of course, this kind of thing happened, and the Egyptian magic world was naturally in a mess.
The Daily Prophet, on the other hand, praised Elwyn. They seemed to have finally found an opportunity. They were excited that a British wizard had saved the Egyptian magic world. It was unknown whether they planned to use this opportunity to please Elwyn, or to make up for their previous mistakes, but they praised Elwyn as a genius, a young wizard who could fight against the Lord Voldemort.
Looking at these articles that praised him, Elwyn felt very embarrassed. His face was red. It was too embarrassing!
It seemed that a certain degree of fabrication had always been the newspaper's tradition.
Elwyn could be sure that there were many things he didn't do at all, but he couldn't stand out and say anything. The Daily Prophet had a good grasp of the scale, and it was difficult to really hold them responsible. They always used words like onlookers or speculations, and all of them were words of praise for Elwyn.
Even Rita Skeeter didn't want to be left out. She wrote a series of reports about the story between her and Elwyn that had to be told.
Elwyn didn't know what kind of story he had with Skeeter to keep her in a bottle like a beetle for half a year.
Did they really develop feelings for each other for her to praise him like that?
Hermione also felt a little embarrassed. She finally told the truth. Wizards loved to read this kind of news.
Because they liked it, they reported it this way. Selling themselves was the first priority of the newspaper.
Putting aside the embarrassing news reports, Elwyn had been living well for the past few days after waking up.
Dumbledore asked him and Hermione to stay at Elwyn's house until Friday night, when he would pick them up. Harry also went to the Order of the Phoenix's headquarters. Elaine and Weasley's family would also go, so they still had a lot of time to stay at home. This made Mason and his wife very happy. They didn't care about Lord Voldemort or the current situation. They should just stay in the house and not go anywhere. They took Elwyn and Hermione out to buy a lot of things and cook their favorite food.
To be precise, it should be Hermione's favorite food. Elwyn felt that his mother liked Hermione more than him.
However, it was really good to have Hermione's company.
… …..
Not far from Elwyn's house, at No. 4 Privet Drive, the atmosphere of the Dursleys wasn't so relaxed!
The Dursleys didn't have a good summer. Before the summer vacation even started, they were already shocked.
Their nephew, Harry Potter's godfather, actually came to visit them.
That meeting was definitely not a happy one. It was a disaster.
First of all, Harry's godfather, Sirius Blake, was a wizard.
This was the kind of person that the Dursleys hated the most. For the past few decades, they had been trying to distance themselves from that world, hoping to squeeze magic out of their nephew's body. But in the end, it was just a waste of time.
Now, a wizard actually came to visit them.
One could imagine how the Dursleys felt at that time. It was like the end of the world.
In fact, they couldn't be blamed. Every meeting between the Dursleys and wizards was terrible. First, it was Hagrid's pig's tail, then Elwyn and Dobby's pig's tail, then Harry blowing up his aunt, Fred and George's prank candy, and last year, it was a Dementor that could suck a person's soul...
Enough, it was really enough!
Mr. Dursley had already sworn more than once that his family had nothing to do with magic. Dudley had already gone to the private clinic to get rid of the pig's tail several times. Not only did he spend a lot of money, he also felt insulted. The doctor at the private clinic had looked at them as if they were monsters...
The Dursleys didn't want to have this meeting, but the problem was that they didn't dare to refuse.
This was because, secondly, Harry's godfather was a murderer.
At least, that was what they thought.
Although the police eventually withdrew the arrest warrant and Harry explained that his godfather had been wrongly accused, Mr. Dursley didn't believe him at all.
"He must've used magic!" He trembled at the word, and two puffs of air came out of his nostrils. "It's that damn trick. Don't think I don't know what kind of people you are."
Lastly, the Dursleys didn't want a wizard to visit them, because Sirius had threatened them with a letter.
He had asked them to treat Harry well, just like they had abused him...
This made the Dursleys feel terrible, especially since some of the things Sirius had mentioned made them feel like they were being watched. But because of this, they finally accepted the visit. Sirius's threat worked. Because of fear, they had no choice but to let him visit them.
Just think about it, the threat of a wizard who was a murderer was a nightmare, a nightmare that they couldn't resist.
The main purpose of Sirius's visit was to warn and threaten the Dursleys...
From Sirius's point of view, the conversation was undoubtedly a success.
After he cast a few spells, the Dursleys and their fat son, who had been very aggressive for a while, were quite frightened.
They agreed to Sirius's request and promised that they would treat Harry well.
If it wasn't for Dumbledore's refusal, Sirius would have wanted to spend the entire summer at No. 4 Privet Drive with Harry. He only stayed for three days and brought a lot of things for Harry, including food, magic tools, things that a boy his age should and shouldn't have, and so on. He bought everything for Harry.
Finally, he left a large sum of gold for the Dursleys as compensation.
Harry suspected that his aunt and uncle would forgive Sirius because of this, but they seemed to be quite satisfied with the gold. Even their attitude towards Harry improved a little. They didn't let him help with the housework anymore and barely talked to him, as if he didn't exist in the house.
Of course, they wouldn't stop Harry from studying magic in his room and completing his school assignments. To Harry, this was already the best he could do. After the Dementors incident last year, Dudley had also distanced himself from him. This was the best summer he had ever had.
The Dursleys gradually recovered from their meeting at the beginning of the holiday and the shock that Sirius had given them. However, they soon received another piece of news from their nephew. A wizard was coming to visit. At eleven o 'clock that Friday night, Dumbledore would come to their house to discuss something with them.
