Legacy of Harry Potter- Chapter 122: Attack on Hogsmeade (Patreon)

November 1994
Ministry of Magic

The announcement from the auror caused chaos in the entire council. Members of the Wizengamot were on their feet, shouting and behaving, not like esteemed lords but as vendors of fish market.

In this chaos, the members failed to notice a smirk on the face of Lucius Malfoy while another member, the pink toad, Dolores Umbridge had a shiny glint in her eyes.

Harry remained unaffected from all this chaos and in moments he jumped from his throne like chair towards Minerva McGonagall.

"Harry..." muttered Minerva, with fear and anxiety etched on her face.
Normally, she would have not been so tensed as breaching the Hogwarts wards was almost impossible. But the problem was that today was the day when the students of Hogwarts would have visited the Hogsmeade village.

Harry was also aware of this fact. He wasted no time and took hold of Minerva's hands. In next moment, Harry along with Minerva vanished from the Wizengamot hall.

After they vanished, Amelia was the first to recover her wits. She scrambled to her feat and ran away towards the autrium so that she could apparate. Rufus Scrimgeour and the other two aurors followed behind her in haster.

November 1994
Hogsmeade Village

When the duo reappeared next, they were standing in the middle of the Hogsmeade village.
The entire village was in mayhem. The houses, shops and various other establishments had been reduced to rubbles. Wizards and witches were running away.

Not far away from Harry and Minerva, 8 death eaters in their black attire were laughing maniacally and firing spells after spell. Facing the death eaters were Hogwarts' professor.

The half goblin, Filius Flitwick was engaged with 2 death eaters. But his condition was not very good. His left non wand arm was badly injured with blood dripping from it. His entire body was covered in cuts and bruises because of the various spells, he had been hit with.

While a world duelling champion, Flitwick would have had no problem in dealing with two above average wizard. But the death eaters were not duelling, their purpose was to kill. And they fired the killing curse like candies while Flitwick was restricted only to the so called light spells.
His entire focus was to avoid the killing curses and hence he had been with the various other curses.

Along with Flitwick, the other professors who were indulged in the duel were Septima Vector, Bathsheda Babbling, Pomona Sprout and Narcissa Malfoy.

Spetima, Bathsheda and Pomona though decent witches were no match for deat eaters. Their specialty was never in duelling.
Although alive they were barely holding against the death eaters and were riddled with injuries.

The only professor dominating the fight was Narcissa Malfoy but she was not a professor in pure sense. Her spells were not restricted to the light spells and barring the unforgivables, she was using even darker spells than the death eaters.
A dead death eater lay in front of Narcissa, while the other one engaged her.

The moment Harry appeared in Hogsmeade and looked at the destruction surrounding him, rage took over him.

The entire magical reserve suppressed by him broke down and as if a huge dam was broken, a ripple of magic spread with him at the centre.

The unprecedented phenomenon of this magical pulse attracted everyone's attention and they stopped in their tracks.

In rage, the Phoenix wand appeared in his hand and Harry slashed his vertically upwards like a sword. A green beam of magical slash erupted from his wand and one of the death eaters who was engaged with Filius was sliced vertically into two.
Even at the last moment of his life, the death eater did not understood how he lost his life.

Harry's action snapped everyone from their daze and the death eaters retreated two steps back in fear.
The glowing green eyes as if pulsing magic, the magical ripple from Harry and his ruthless action of slicing one of their comrades in half made their heart palpate with fear.

Next moment, 12 more figures dressed in their death eater attires stormed out from different corners of the Hogsmeade village. No doubt these were placed to ambush Harry... their only target Harry Potter.

Seeing the addition death eaters, Harry did not falter a bit. The last time, he had fought the death eaters during the triwizard world cup final, he had not been accustomed to his power. Even with his overwhelming strength, he was not able to dominate the fight.
But this time he was different. He was already used to his power. What he lacked the previous time, experience, was not lacking this time. The memories of the Peverell brothers along with Voldemort's memories made him more experienced than any other known wizard.

Harry stepped forward, "Good... you dare to invade Hogwarts...."

His magical pulsed once again, "You will pay the price...."

"Professor McGonagall, professor Flitwick and professor Black; you will help me kill these scum," said Harry without turning.

"The remaining professors will help evacuate the students and any other civilian," added Harry.

Minerva tried to protest as this formation would give an undue advantage to the death eaters in their numbers, "Harry..."

But Harry cut her across, "Do as I told."

Narcissa twirled the wand in her hand and smirked like a predator, "Gladly."
"Even though, I may not recognise all of you... there must be few of those scums who used to gaze at me lecherously," she whispered, her voice deep.

"Now is the time for the world to remember... what a Black can do," declared Narcissa and with this a glowing red spell left her wand.
