Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures-Chapter 1213: Gone Missing for Two Months

“You weren’t at the Ruins of Amun Ra?!” Upon hearing Evan’s words, a trace of obvious disappointment flashed across their faces. They had hoped to learn something about the situation inside the Ruins of Amun Ra from Evan, but now they were left with nothing.

The wizard sitting in the middle waved his hand dismissively, not even asking Evan why he had ended up in the desert.

Hélène, however, was quite pleased. Her main reason for being there was to find Evan, and now that she had, she could report back to Sirius.

She led Evan out of the tent, and the two walked toward the tent area, eventually entering a tent with blue and white stripes.

The tent was empty, spacious, and decorated in a distinctly French style.

“This is my tent, Evan. You can rest here for now and come back to Cairo with me tomorrow. I need to write a letter to Sirius and tell him about you. Your friends have been very worried because you’ve been missing for two months…”

“Two months?!” Evan asked, “You said I’ve been missing for two months. What month is it now?”

“Of course it’s late August. School will start in a few days, right?”

“Late August!” Evan remembered that when he arrived at the Ruins of Amun Ra, it was still late June.

His return from the past hadn’t been seamless; there seemed to be a discrepancy. The longer he had traveled through time, the greater the temporal distortion and uncertainty upon returning.

Of course, now was not the time to study this phenomenon — there were many things Evan needed to confirm.

“Yes, late August. Sirius told me they received a letter in early August from an Egyptian witch named Rawya, who said you were missing and that she and others were searching for you. The letter was sent to one of your classmates, someone named Hermione, who Rawya knows. Hermione immediately contacted Sirius. However, the letter was delayed due to some unforeseen circumstances. Rawya sent it in mid-July, and by then, you had already been missing for over ten days. But for some reason, the letter didn’t reach the UK until early August. In a way, it was fortunate it was delayed!”

“What do you mean?” Evan asked.

He could only imagine how worried Hermione must have been when she received a letter saying he was missing.

Before setting off for the Ruins of Amun Ra, Evan had written a letter to Hermione. In addition to reporting his safety, he also told her what he’d seen and heard at the International Alchemical Conference. He’d also sent her some interesting alchemy items he had bought as gifts.

Hermione had been quite worried about Evan’s trip to Egypt, and in her reply she mentioned many attacks that had occurred internationally.

Some were the work of Voldemort and his followers, while others were carried out by different Dark wizards.

But it was undeniable that the forces of Dark magic were becoming increasingly active, and the Middle East seemed particularly unstable.

Evan had written back to tell her that he was fine and that Egypt was safe.

And then suddenly, she received news that he had gone missing…

“After receiving the letter, your friends and Sirius prepared to come to Egypt to find you. Fortunately, the letter was delayed for more than ten days. Before they set out, this incident happened in the Ruins of Amun Ra. A demon was released inside, and many people died. Egypt went into full lockdown, especially around the Ruins of Amun Ra.”

“Hermione and the others didn’t come to Egypt?”

“They did, but it was after the demon incident. They couldn’t reach the Ruins of Amun Ra without permission, and no one was allowed to get close to this area,” said Hélène. “They stayed in Cairo for a few days trying to gather information about you, but with school starting soon, they had to return. Sirius has been trying to get permission to come here, but since he’s no longer an Auror and the Ruins of Amun Ra are under strict lockdown, only the Joint Rescue Team is allowed to get close.”

Evan finally understood why Hélène said it was fortunate that the letter was delayed by those ten days. If Hermione and the others had arrived at the Ruins of Amun Ra earlier, they would have been caught in the demon’s release…

He felt a bit relieved that Hermione and the others weren’t involved in the incident.

“Well, what’s going on with this joint rescue team?” Evan asked, taking a cup of hot drink from Hélène.

“After the incident, the Egyptian Ministry of Magic applied to the International Confederation of Wizards for rescue due to a shortage of manpower. All countries should send Aurors and healers to Egypt to form a joint rescue team. That’s why I’m here — we were the first group sent,” Hélène sighed heavily. “However, judging from the current situation, we might be the only rescue team.”

Before Evan could ask more, she continued, “As for the current situation of the Ruins of Amun Ra, the rescue team plus the Egyptian Ministry of Magic and Gringotts are just a drop in the bucket. But the situation in other countries is just as bad.

“You don’t know that in the past two months, the Dark Lord and his followers have been attacking all over the world. The Ministries of Magic in various countries are short-handed. Dead bodies and wanton abuse of Muggles are found every day. There is no way to effectively stop it…”

“Voldemort and his followers are attacking all over the world?” Evan looked at her in shock.

“Yes, this time it’s not just a matter for you in Britain. I don’t know what that crazy Dark wizard wants to do. He wasn’t so scary before he disappeared, but now he seems to be completely crazy, killing people all over the world without any regard.”

Voldemort needed to collect flesh and blood to complete the magic, but Evan hadn’t expected him to go to such extremes.

This was a move to spread his terror worldwide, casting the shadow of his return over the entire globe.

Whether they were wizards or Muggles, wherever they were, they would tremble in fear of Voldemort.

“I’ve heard that this incident of the Ruins of Amun Ra is also connected to the Dark Lord…” Hélène whispered.

“Are you saying that while I was away, Voldemort came to the Ruins of Amun Ra?”

“Not exactly. No one knows where he is,” said Hélène. “It’s Voldemort’s followers — oh, not the Death Eaters, but another Dark wizard organization. After the news of his return was confirmed, many madmen and desperados flocked to him. According to our investigation, this incident is related to an organization called the Raven’s Claw. It’s a Dark organization active in Southern and Eastern Europe. Over time, they’ve been illegally recruiting followers and spreading apocalyptic theories…”

Evan stared at her in shock. He hadn’t expected the Raven’s Claw to be involved.

This mysterious organization originated from Hogwarts several centuries ago. It was said that they’d found a way to save the world from information left by Rowena Ravenclaw. They believed in an unknown evil god. They searched for relics of ancient times, released the sealed ancient gods, spread evil and chaos, and prepared for the end of the world.

Evan had encountered them before and fought with them in Sicily and the Lost City of the Deep Sea.

The Raven’s Claw was conducting Dark rituals deep in a volcano there, absorbing the energy of the Cyclops. They intended to use this energy to summon a powerful outer god to the Lost City of the Deep Sea. If not for Evan’s intervention, they would have nearly succeeded.

And there was the high-ranking member called the Harbinger of Doom, who seemed to be going to visit Voldemort…

So, were they already in collusion?

If Voldemort intended to become an evil god, then his goals would align with those of the evil god behind the Raven’s Claw!
