[Hagrid took Harry to the Leaky Cauldron, where he was warmly welcomed by all the wizards present. There, he had his first encounter with the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Quirinus Quirrell. After some greetings, Hagrid led him to the largest meeting point in the British wizarding world: Diagon Alley.]
[As they walked through Diagon Alley, Harry was impressed by the various broom shops, potion stores, and a huge bookstore. However, he worried about not having any money, but his fears quickly vanished when Hagrid explained that his parents had left him a substantial amount.]
[After a brief conversation with the goblins, Harry enjoyed his first cart ride, although he was even more surprised by the enormous amount of Galleons his parents had left in his vault.]
[He then accompanied Hagrid to a deeper vault with a complex security system that could only be opened by a goblin. Hagrid grabbed a small cloth package and warned Harry not to mention it to anyone. They then left Gringotts.]
[Harry began his shopping spree in Diagon Alley, first picking up his uniform at Madame Malkin's, where he had an unfriendly encounter with a pale-faced boy. He then bought his schoolbooks at Flourish and Blotts, along with potion supplies and equipment. At Hagrid's insistence, Harry also received a special gift: his new owl, Hedwig.]
[In the wand shop, Harry was confused about the need for measurements since he was still growing. However, he soon received his first wand: an unusual combination of holly and phoenix feather, measuring eleven inches, flexible and powerful.]
[For about a month, Harry remained under the care of the Dursleys, who were afraid of him and avoided him whenever possible. He spent this time playing with Hedwig and reading some of his new magic books.]
[On September 1st, he went to the train station and, after some difficulty finding Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, met the Weasley family, who helped him cross the barrier with Muggle-repelling magic.]
[In the train compartment, Harry met Ron Weasley, with whom he quickly became friends. After a brief discussion with Draco's friends and a meeting with Hermione, the train finally arrived at its destination. Harry then experienced the boat ride across the Great Lake to Hogwarts, following in the footsteps of the founders.]
[Upon arrival, the students were greeted by Professor McGonagall. After a scare with the ghosts and the long song of the Sorting Hat, the students were divided into their houses. Due to his persistent thoughts against Slytherin, Harry, along with Ron and Hermione, was placed in Gryffindor.]
The white curtain of light appeared up to that point and floated slowly behind the dark curtain of light, suggesting that it was time to compare with Harry Black.
The magical world was no longer calm. Before, the focus was solely on Harry's story, and outsiders did not know how to get involved.
Now that the perspective had shifted to the magical world, everyone felt more at ease.
As expected, the messages in the group chat nearly exploded at that moment.
Minerva McGonagall: "Damn! I was wondering why half of Hogwarts' owls were missing back then. So that's why!"
Severus Snape: "I expected nothing less from those Muggles, but I don't think that's the point right now. Hagrid, what did you mean by 'There's no evil wizard who isn't from Slytherin'? Could you explain better?"
Hagrid: "Ah... Professor Snape, I'm afraid it was just a misunderstanding, hahaha!"
Cornelius Fudge: "And how do you explain using magic with a broken wand? You are breaking the laws, Hagrid!!"
Albus Dumbledore: "Calm down, Cornelius. It's impossible to permanently take away someone's magic. Also, if you want to follow the laws, I have a few cases here that I would like to review."
The conversation paused for a moment.
After all, when giants speak, the little ones fall silent, right?
In the Ministry of Magic, in the Minister's office, Cornelius had a dark face and clenched teeth. His hatred boiled at that moment.
Damn you, Albus. Just wait and see how I will deal with you.
This silence didn't last long, and soon everyone returned to discussing another topic.
Lily Potter: "Thank you, Hagrid, for celebrating Harry's birthday and accompanying him on his school shopping. You too, Molly, you are very kind."
James Potter: "I am also grateful, Hagrid. I hope you continue to take care of Harry in the future."
Hagrid: "Haha! Don't mention it. I'll take care of little Harry for you in the future."
Molly Weasley: "That's what any mother would do, Lily."
Ron Weasley: "Wow, Harry, when you bought all those sweets, I knew you were rich, but not that rich."
George Weasley: "Fred, it looks like we've found a promising sponsor for our prank products. What do you think?"
Fred Weasley: "Of course! We have to be polite to our future boss, haha."
Molly Weasley: "Shut up! Don't talk about that in front of so many people. And no prank products, or you will go straight to the Burrow."
With that scolding, the twins obediently closed their mouths.
After all, how could they face their furious mother?
Hermione Granger: "Now that I think about it, why take measurements for the wand? At 11 years old, we're still growing rapidly."
Garrick Ollivander: "To answer your question, little Hermione, I measure the proportional growth to facilitate your gestures when casting magic."
With Ollivander's explanation, everyone realized that he didn't measure the actual size of the wizard but rather the proportions of their bodies, which made sense.
After all, would the size of the wand Harry would use be the same as what Crabbe or Goyle would use in the future?
Gellert Grindelwald: "I'm more interested in what was in that vault. Albus, why don't you tell us? Surely we're all curious."
Rita Skeeter: "Yes, yes, something hidden in such a deep vault... what could it be?"
Rita's gossip instincts were tingling. It seemed she was already ready to write some scandalous news.
Albus Dumbledore: "Dear wizards, it's nothing significant, just an old family memento. Please forgive me for not saying more."
With Albus's words, no one pressed further, but all the wizards from the sacred and mixed families collectively rolled their eyes.
A family memento left in an underground vault? Only fools would believe that!
Only Quirinus Quirrell narrowed his initially trembling eyes and thought deeply, although he still wasn't sure about anything.
Filius Flitwick: "It's a pity Harry didn't go to Ravenclaw. Now I'm sure Harry Black will be selected for Ravenclaw."
Severus Snape: "Stop daydreaming, Harry Black will certainly be chosen for Slytherin. His ambition for power is uncontrollable."
Severus Snape: "I'm sure that, without the deliberate intervention of others, Harry Black will definitely be selected for Slytherin this time."
