Chapter 29 - Chapter 29: Manly Man Harry

Just as Dolly had planned, in one month's time, she had gained two free attribute points.

And because of the rule she had made with her golden finger, Dolly had also achieved freedom in eating.

She didn't need to actually get fat. Once her body converted food into fat and her body fat percentage exceeded 15%, it would be directly siphoned off.

As for the waste products generated by her body due to illness or accident, they were also directly taken away by the golden finger.

So, the seemingly frail Dolly was actually in surprisingly good health this month.

However, this physique that allowed her to eat without getting fat convinced Hermione and Petunia that Dolly was still far from a full recovery.

Probably only when Dolly actually gained some weight would they see it as a sign of true health.

Unfortunately, achieving this would likely be very difficult.

On one hand, because the system directly took away those cells that were about to be discarded, some of which would have been recycled by the body, Dolly could now only rely on food to supplement her nutritional needs.

In addition, the system would also take away Dolly's fat. She would probably maintain this appearance forever.

Finally, as for these two attribute points, just as Dolly had planned, she was not in a hurry to use them.

If she encountered any special situations, it wouldn't be too late to use them then.

She was now just an 11-year-old first-year student at Hogwarts, even a year younger than Hermione.

Why think about fighting and killing so early?

Let's return our attention to Dolly, who had left early this morning.

Unlike the original story, the Dursley and Granger families had gathered together as planned.

It was the first time for both children to go to school, so they all decided to see them off at the station.

And after the three young wizards learned to use the Knight Bus, although the experience was poor, they had to admit it was very fast.

Before long, the two families arrived at the train station. Hermione now also knew that she was the oldest one.

She took the initiative to act as the leader, and at the same time, seriously reminded Dolly and Harry how to calmly enter Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, so as to pretend they were not Muggles who knew nothing.

"According to the instructions, we just have to walk directly towards the barrier between platforms nine and ten."

"I'll go first... hmm, or maybe you should go first?"

Hermione was clearly not as calm as she appeared. The rapid rise and fall of her small chest was enough to show that she was afraid of crashing headfirst into the wall.

Dolly shrugged, intending to go first.

Although it was also her first time, she had seen how others did it.

"Wait, never mind."

Hermione quickly stopped Dolly. Looking at Dolly's slightly sickly complexion, she quickly said to Harry, "Harry, you're a man. How about you go?"

Harry grinned, not feeling that this was Hermione bullying him.

Instead, he rolled up his sleeves, tensed his whole body, and then charged forward with his trolley. The speed scared Hedwig into screeching.

Behind him, Vernon clapped and cheered for Harry. Clearly, the relationship between this old pair of rivals had completely changed.

As for the reason for the change, it was that over the past month, because of their gender, the person who had spent the most time with Harry was not Dolly or Hermione, but Vernon.

Vernon's personality was obviously selfish, arrogant, and a grumpy old white man, full of machismo, but he loved his wife and doted on his daughter.

Originally, Vernon also thought that he and Harry could never truly reconcile, as their personalities were too different.

But soon Vernon discovered that was not the case.

In the past, his impression of Harry was that he was timid and even a bit sinister, who would secretly use magic to harm their family.

But now Vernon realized that Harry was also a carefree, proud, and even somewhat reckless and stubborn boy.

This became even more obvious after Harry learned that he was the Boy-Who-Lived, respected and even idolized by countless people in the magical world.

In this way, Vernon actually began to truly understand and like his nephew.

The logic was not difficult to understand. In the eyes of someone like Vernon, a child who was not scheming and loved to get into trouble was a real child.

Otherwise, how could Vernon possibly like a nephew who was like a little Snape?

Of course, in the final analysis, it was that their relationship had changed. Vernon needed Harry to help his daughter at school.

In the eyes of parents, their own daughter is always the most fragile one.

At this time, Harry needed to transform into a reliable man, which was exactly the change Harry himself wanted.

The two sides hit it off. Vernon even felt he had gained a son, and Harry also felt true family affection.

Now it was time for Harry to show his stuff.

Harry's figure flashed through the wall and disappeared.

But in the instant before the wall restored itself, a series of gasps came from the other side.

This left everyone looking at each other. Had Harry failed?

Dolly didn't wait any longer, pushed her trolley, and ran through. Hermione quickly followed.

Only then did they discover that Harry's trolley had rear-ended another boy, knocking the boy's trolley to the ground.

The boy was down and not getting up, and Harry was clutching his head.

An old woman leaning on a cane saw this and walked over angrily.

Harry was startled and quickly got up, wanting to apologize to the boy and the old woman.

But unexpectedly, the old woman hit the fat boy on the leg with her cane.

"Get up! Do you have a weak-leg disease? You break a bone just from being bumped?"

"Back then, your parents were tortured to madness by Death Eaters but never gave in. How come you can't even take a single bump?"

The scolded fat boy finally got up, looked at the old woman beside him with some fear, and quickly said to Harry, "I'm sorry."

Harry's mouth fell open, looking completely baffled.

He looked at the positions of the two trolleys, confirmed that he had hit the other person, and then said, "No, I hit you. I should be the one to apologize."

With that, he was about to squat down to help the other person pick up his things.

But the fierce-looking old woman waved her wand, cast a silent spell, and directly restored Neville's and Harry's trolleys to their original state.

After doing this, she said to Harry in a kinder tone than before, "It's good that you took the initiative to apologize. I disciplined him because he is weak, not because of the accident just now."

"Alright, don't just stand there, or more people will crash into you. It takes time to store your luggage. Hurry up and get on the train, little wizards."

With that, the old woman left with the dejected fat boy. This change once again left Harry dumbfounded.

He couldn't help but ask, "What's their relationship? It's not grandmother and grandson, is it?"

"Why not?" Dolly asked back.

Harry looked at the fat boy's retreating back and said, "Then he's... a bit too pitiful."
