It mentions "A blast of green light blazed through Harry's eyelids, and he felt something heavy fall to the ground beside him." That meant that Harry had his eyes closed when Cedric died and did not know what fell next to him.
Harry cannot help feeling that Cedric's death is at least partly his fault; his assuming responsibility will result in his partially closing himself off to friends and other Hogwarts students. It will also make him reluctant to accept his share of the Triwizard prize.
Why couldn't Harry see the Thestrals after Cedric died?
I decided, therefore, that until Harry is over the first shock, and really feels what death means (ie, when he fully appreciates that Cedric is gone forever and that he can never come back, which takes time, whatever age you are) he would not be able to see the Thestrals.
Cedric Diggory was murdered by Peter Pettigrew on the orders of Lord Voldemort. This happened in Little Hangleton graveyard, where Harry Potter was forced to witness the event. Despite the Ministry of Magic's attempts to label it as an accident, Harry Potter insisted that it was murder.
Cedric's death becomes a point of trauma and guilt for Harry and continues to haunt him, which leads him to form Dumbledore's Army as a way to help teach his fellow students to protect themselves in battle. His death is also a focal point of the stage play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

What were Cedric Diggory's last words?
“Take my body back to my father.” This quote is certainly a sad one to end on, because these are Cedric Diggory's last words. While Harry Potter duels Voldemort in a graveyard, Cedric's corpse lies by the portkey, both discarded as useless objects by the Dark Lord. But then Harry's spell does something extraordinary.
The memorial feast to Cedric Diggory was held at the end of the academic year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry towards the end of June. It was held after the third task of the 1994–1995 Triwizard Tournament.
Cedric was described as a fifth year in PoA, so he's a sixth year in GoF. He's described as “about seventeen” early in GoF, and he wouldn't have turned eighteen while still in sixth year, so his birthday was early in the school year, and he was about seventeen and nine months when he died.
Harry describes Umbridge to Sirius Black, saying that she's vile enough to be a Death Eater, despite not being one. Umbridge is also depicted to be a prejudiced person, despising half-breeds and Muggle-born witches and wizards to the point of firing Hagrid due to his half-giant birth status.
Luna says her mother was an extraordinary witch who died when a spell experiment went wrong. Luna saw the death of her mother when she was only nine and so she can see Thestrals. Luna appears to be an only child as no mention is made of siblings.
Despite this, Amos thanked Harry for bringing Cedric's body. However, by 2020, Amos's increased grief made him blame Harry partially for Cedric's death and outright demanded Harry to bring him back through time travel and was angry and bitter when Harry refused to, declaring him a "stone-cold" Ministry man.
Narcissa, on the order of Voldemort, went near Harry, and touched his chest. She understood, in an instant, that Harry was alive, because the heart of Harry was beating frantically, and she felt it.
On confirming Draco's very much alive status, she plainly lied that Harry Potter was "dead". This action of hers was both very crucial and important, not only for Harry's survival but for Voldemort's final defeat as well, thus ensuring Harry was again protected by a mother's love, although indirectly.
Cedric's death would be sad regardless, but the fact that he was killed with such flippancy and disregard makes it so much more devastating. Poor Cedric was the epitome of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and he became collateral damage in the process.
That June, Cedric was murdered by Peter Pettigrew on Lord Voldemort's orders. Cho was devastated and spent a lot of her time crying in the bathroom. She attended the memorial service at the end of the school year to pay her respects to her late boyfriend.
They spoke to Harry personally and heard the story from him: They did not blame him for what had happened; on the contrary, both thanked him for returning Cedric's body to them. Mr. Diggory sobbed through most of the interview.
He is closely associated with the Order of the Phoenix, and has explicitly denied the anti-Muggle/Muggle-born ideology of the Death Eaters. There is quite literally NO plausible way Hagrid could be or ever have been a Death Eater.
On turning eleven, Umbridge started attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was Sorted into Slytherin and her head of house was Horace Slughorn.
Although Umbridge was not a Death Eater, and had no direct contact with Lord Voldemort, she showed that she was fairly in line with their goals. This was due to Umbridge's callous nature and her prejudiced beliefs, both of which were similar to Death Eater behavior.
She survived the war and eventually married a muggle Mr. Campbell and had a daughter named Erin. Even though Cho seemed very innocent and kind, she still couldn't get over the fact that Cedric Diggory was dead and Harry Potter, her new crush, had been right beside Cedric when he died.
yeh don' have ter be pureblood ter do it." implying that Cedric is a pure-blood. Since Cedric's parents were both wizards, he could not have been a Muggle-born anyway.
Cedric Diggory was, as you all know, exceptionally hard working, infinitely fair-minded, and most importantly, a fierce, fierce friend. Therefore, I feel you have the right to know exactly how he died. You see, Cedric Diggory was murdered, by Lord Voldemort. The Ministry of Magic does not wish me to tell you this.
Cedric's notable accomplishments in Quidditch and his reputation as a good-looking wizard contributed to his popularity among his peers. Cedric's loyalty, modesty, and kindness were traits that aligned with the values of Hufflepuff House, making him a perfect fit for the underdog House.
