Excellent chapter., I am glad they have decided to get over themselves and work with Albus. I am not a fan of Dumbledore but the constant bashing was getting monotonous. Looking forward to the horcrux scavenger hunt..

That nonsense with his leg could have been avoided if he had called Hermes to heal his leg as soon as he was bitten in the maze. He could have also avoided the obstacles in the maze altogether by transforming into his animagus and flying straight to the cup.

Holy crap I am impressed! This is one of the handful of stories I've seen where there are only THREE champions competing in the TRI-wizard tournament.

My only complaint is that Harry acts like a tempermental dick. I get it that Dumbledore is a wanker but Harry losses his shit about everything the man does.

Good ole Hogwarts, I am glad you worked the tournament into the story. With the way things had been going in the story so far, I wasn't sure if you would or not. Looking forward to the next few chapters.

Interesting escape, I enjoyed the chapter overall though I wolas surprised that Fleur was so receptive to Harry considering their past interactions.

Interesting chapter. Their age makes Harry and his friends interactions much more believable now than it was in earlier chapters, so kudos for that. Truthfully, I think you should have started the story from this point and just filled their backstory in along the way. I may be a bit bias as I prefer stories from GoF onward but I find stories prior to that to be unrealistic since most authors lack the ability to write from a preteens perspective convincingly.

I think out of the main three characters, the one that annoys me the most is Krum. Draco I get, he's intellectual and slightly introverted. Harry is also intelligent but more charismatic and good with the ladies. Then you got Krum who more often than not is punching one of tge other two for something when he isn't invading their privacy by taking things from their trunk for Saiph. To put it bluntly, he's a great big buzzkill.

Nice chapter, you have no idea how pleased I am that you decided to do a time jump and bypass the rest of their preteen years. It was alsonice to see Harry, Draco, and Krum fight their attackers instead of leaving it to the adults.

I'm a bit curious to see what plan Bellatrix has in the works.

I am glad Harry wasn't the winner though the dueling scenes got a bit repetitive after a bit.

This was a very interesting end to Harry's first year.

Harry, Draco and Krum have been undefeatable badasses for the past six chapters but in both of the real confrontations inthis chapter when they could have used their badasssery for good, they hung back and let the adults do the fighting. Don't get me wrong that is realistic but it makes the story inconsistent, they are able to defeat ministry aurors in their practice duels but they can't chip in and throw a few spells at some death eaters when it matters?

The phoenixshould have been able to bypss the wards or at least help heal the injured while they waited for the professor to drop the wards.

Finally, Sirius is a dick for how he handled the incident at the bar.

I have to admit, I am envious of Harry's Christmas present. I always wanted to find the key for a CRF-230F under my Christmas tree as a teenager but no luck, all I ever got was clothes.

I enjoyed the meeting with Fleur, I am actually very encouraged that this isn't one of those love at first sight stories.

A phoenix familiar *sigh* I find it very off-putting when Harry basically has one advantage afteranother dumped in his lap. Now Harry is basically mini-Dimbledore, all he needs is a beard and a lemon drop fetish. Adversity helps builds character development and helps the reader connect with the character but I find it hard to sympathize with this Harry.

"Professor, I'm so powerful lightning bolts are shooting out of... out of my ass," Harry said as he stroken his new familiar.

"Oh you poor bastard, try controlling your temper. You only act your age when it's convenient," the headmaster suggested feeling annoyed thewhelp was keeping him from his veela wife because of this nonsense.

On a serious note, I doappreciate the work you've put into worldbuilding, you have done very good with the details so kudos as far as that goes.

I thought the duels were fun and I enjoyed the final scenr though I still believe Harry is far too advanced for an eleven year old both in terms of magic and his overall personality. If he was fourteen or fifteen it would be more believable but he doesn't act like a child that age should. I am looking forward to the later years of the story so Harry's unrealistic maturity won't be such an issue but at the moment it's throwing me off a bit.

The plot is solid and you certainly thought out Durmstrang very well but the characters are not realistic. Your Harryreminds me of the Robot Chicken graduation hat where the hat is placed on Harry's head and the hat tells him to go win at life while he drowns in puntang.

I get that he needs to be talented but your Harry takes that to the point of absurdity, if Harry is this accomplished magically at eleven, why bother sending him to school?

The long lost LeStrange cousin angle is interesting.

I still hope to see the Epilogue.

I cannotY'all, Drake, Bolt" the Americanisms ruin it. They're living in Bulgaria for f*cks sake use the original language or something different

Also an eleven year old is better than auror recruits, wandless magic, silent casting, knowing a spell Snape invented "Sirius taught" How would the arch enemy of Snape know his spell?! Way too mature behaviour for prepubescents, waiver to use magic BS, I Wouldn't trust a 7/8 year old with a weapon or any large amount of responsibility,

Jesus wept it had such a good beginning with how everything was explained (a bit too conspicuously easy) great part with the U-18 Quidditch

At the rate this is going it'll be 'Uber powerful second coming of merlin potter and his hot wife and two brothers' If that's your thing go right ahead.
