I used to think about whether I should just let Slytherin get the House Cup in the first year, but thinking about it, the current little snakes are still too proud, so they decided to follow the original book and let them know what it means to "boiled ducks can fly".

Slytherin is proud, and so is O, so they'll grow up after this time, right? However, for Xiao Ao, it is also an opportunity for her to integrate more into Slytherin. However, just as Xiao Ao herself thought, she did target Dumbledore a little, and hacked everyone in Slytherin very simply. (So those who think Xiao Ao is simple are really ...... ）

It's not easy to end the third volume and enter the countdown......

By the way, let's sort out the bonus abilities of the current Opal "Son of Gaia (Uninherited)" title: Mental Stability (Domain) Level +5, Constant Level 15 Magical Creature Affinity, Magic Resistance +15, Charisma +5, and UBM Skill Level +3.

Anyway, can I complain about Aunt JK's magic system? Although I know that she is just writing fairy tales, as a DND audience, I said that the magical settings written are really Alexander

After Harry regained consciousness, Opal had nothing more to do, after all, Dumbledore found her because as the "son of Gaia", her passive talent for calming people could make Harry, who was already in a state of mental confusion, stabilize more quickly.

So for the rest of the day, Opal spent most of his time teasing Draco, teasing Pansy and Brace, and occasionally looking up some information—of course, the daily training still had to be carried on.

All in all, the current situation is like the moment of the incident in the secret room as an opportunity to completely relax the taut spring. But Opal is not opposed to such a proper rest.

After all, she did try a little too hard some time ago - although she still didn't understand what "Voldemort" really was.

Merely......

"Opal, why don't you look happy at all?"

In the noisy hall restaurant, Draco, who had just finished a shabby conversation with his friends, looked at Opal who was obviously absent-minded next to him with some puzzlement, "We won!" ”

In celebration of Slytherin's victory in the House Cup, with the professor's permission, the entire hall was decorated in dark green and bright silver, and flags with the Slytherin emblem were flown everywhere.

[Draco...... I think it's better not to be happy too soon. ]

Glancing at the unoccupied seat in the middle of the hall, Opal shook his head slightly, but decided not to pour cold water on the group of snakes, who were obviously already excited, for the sake of his own safety.

"Why?"

Draco was slightly stunned for Opal's words, "Our score is far ahead of the other houses!" What's not certain about that? ”

[Don't forget that the person who solved the Voldemort invasion was affiliated with Gryffindor.] ]

Absentmindedly taking a small bite of the snack in front of him, Opal sighed, [Headmaster Dumbledore is likely to use this as a reason to give Gryffindor's house extra points.] ]

The golden boy with the aura of "Savior" led Gryffindor House to miraculously turn defeat into victory in the House Cup.

Just think about it to understand how inflammatory the news was, and how much of an impact it had on Harry's reputation.

So no matter how much Opal thought about it, he felt that Dumbledore's unreliable personality would definitely do such a thing - it was clear that what the Slytherin students would think was not in Dumbledore's mind at all.

"Extra points are extra points, don't forget that the single deduction and the upper limit of extra points are 50 points."

Draco felt that Opal's concerns were completely unreasonable, "It's just a trio." What's more, with Slytherin's current score, even if Gryffindor adds 150 points, he can't win. ”

[…… Let's hope for it......]

If you really want to add points, it's easy to find a reason, right?

Opal sighed softly and lowered his eyes, Opal hid his expression well, and did not make any further comments in this regard.

Anyway, if Dumbledore did that, it might be a good thing for Slytherin.

Maintaining one's emotional stability at all times, not liking shapes, and not getting carried away by external objects - this is the basic principle of Slytherin.

And now the Slytherin snakes, who are clearly completely dizzy, need to be beaten again in every way.

There are no absolutes.

Sometimes, "boiled ducks" can also fly away.

But sure enough......

After a moment's thought, and seeing that it seemed to be some time before the official dinner began, Opal stood up and gestured to the other grade leaders, gesturing "emergency meeting".

Because of Opal's own status as the "first-year chief", the other senior chiefs looked at each other and bowed their heads, and followed Opal out of the table temporarily.

“……”

Draco frowned as he watched Opal and the other chiefs leave, remembering what she had already pointed out earlier.

Is there really something wrong with this Academy Cup?

Ha, how is that possible?!

====================== my dividing line of time ====================

Hogwarts Cafeteria

、

By the time Opal and the Head of Year were back at the table, and the Head of Year had informed their prefects, it was almost time for the dinner to begin.

Just as everyone was talking to each other, the door to the hall was pushed open and Harry walked in - looking at his hurried appearance, it looked like he had just run out of the medical wing.

"Well, Opal, don't you think our 'Immortal' boy looks a lot like Hanako who came out of the slums?"

After glancing at Harry, Draco smiled and whispered to Opal.

[I don't think that the cultivation of the aristocracy allows us to judge people by their appearance.] ]

Glancing at Harry, who was looking at them, Opal nodded slightly to greet him, then turned his gaze back to the snack in front of him.

"Tsk, you're really not your average shiny. Although our 'savior' has always been unkempt, there are not many opportunities to laugh at it in such a righteous and bright way. ”

Aware of Opal's temper, Draco didn't say anything more than a soft snort, and instead muttered to his classmates on the other side.

Soon Dumbledore entered the hall, and as soon as he was seated, the cacophony of voices in the dining room fell silent.

"Another year has passed!"

After glancing at the room, Dumbledore smiled, "But I'll have to bother with an old man's nagging before you let go of your belly and eat these wonderful foods." What a great year! I hope you'll find that your brains are a little more filled than they used to...... Now, the House Cup is about to be awarded here, and at the moment the specific points of the four houses are: Gryffindor 312 points, fourth place; Huffleav 352 points, third; Ravenclaw 426 points, second; Slytherin scored 472 points, ranking first. ”

A cheer erupted from around Opal.

It's noisy......

Opal frowned imperceptibly—she was still a little uncomfortable with the unusually lively atmosphere.

"Alright, alright...... Well done, Slytherin. ”

When the cheers had died down, Dumbledore continued, "But recent events should also be counted. ”

The hall fell silent for a moment, and the Slytherin snakes immediately thought of the not-so-wonderful faces of the heads of the grades who had returned to the table earlier, and instantly had a bad premonition.

Draco frowned, his face a little solemn.

"Now I have an up-to-date standings to launch."

With that, Dumbledore turned his gaze to Gryffindor's house, "Let me see." By the way, the first one is for ...... It's for Mr. Ron Weasley! Because he's the best Hogwarts player in years! I give it to Ron of Gryffindor...... 50 points! ”

Immediately, the cheers of the Gryffindors almost shattered the roof, and even the stars above their heads seemed to come alive.

"The second is about Miss Hermione Granger...... She remarkably used calm logic in the face of the fire. I'll give Gryffindor another 50 points! ”

So the unprepared little snakes' faces are almost turning green - this is already 100 points!

"The third - is Mr. Harry Potter's ......"

As soon as the name was spoken, the whole hall suddenly became quiet, "Because of his great courage and fearless courage, I will add 30 points to him, and then I will add another 30 points for his feat." ”

The lobby is boiling again.

The little snakes of Slotrin, whose faces had completely sunk at the moment, looked at the smiling Dumbledore.

As if completely unaware of the piercing gaze coming from Slytherin House, Dumbledore raised his hand, and the hall fell silent again.

"There are many kinds of courage."

"It takes great courage to stand up to our enemies, but it also takes great courage to stand up to our friends," he said. That's why I'm here to award 10 points to Neville Longbottom! ”

The cheers from Gryffindor's seat were so powerful that Harry, Ron, and Hermione all stood up and yelled, while Neville turned white with fright.

Really......

Opal quietly exchanged glances with the heads of the grades who were looking at her, and received a positive nod from them, who were looking very bad at the moment.

"But at the same time, we'd like to thank a student from Slytherin House."

Dumbledore's words instantly made the hall quiet again, and some of the restless snakes were stirring up at the faint hope - after all, according to the previous trend, if Slytherin was mentioned, it was likely to be a plus.

If it's ten, it's fine, at least it's flat.

Many little snakes hold such thoughts.

"Thanks to her help, our little hero, Mr. Harry Potter, was able to recover so quickly and celebrate with us."

Dumbledore's gaze fell on Opal, who didn't even look up as he spoke, "Miss Opal Yunique Snape, I will award Slygelin for your kindness and thoughtful knowledge...... Fi……”

[I refuse.] ]

A clear, but soft, voice resounded throughout the hall, even cutting off Dumbledore's impending exit.

"Oh...... Why? ”

Probably because it was the first time that a student union refused to add points, Dumbledore was slightly stunned, and looked at Opal, who had already stood up to meet everyone's eyes, his eyes hidden behind the lenses narrowed, "Miss Opal, I don't think you should be so impulsive until you hear my extra points." ”

[It is our duty as a human being to help the weak, and when I first agreed, I did not want to be grateful or reciprocated.] ]

The pigeon's blood-red eyes looked at Dumbledore calmly, and Opal raised his chin slightly, and replied with a calm expression, [As Slytherins, we don't even have the courage to face reality. Headmaster Dumbledore, the extra points you gave me at the end in my name are an insult to us, and I will not accept them. ]

"Dear child, I think you seem to have misunderstood something."

Dumbledore pushed his glasses, still smiling, "I didn't mean to insult you. Just give you the credit you deserve for your kindness. ”

This old fox.

Although he secretly slandered himself, Opal's expression was still warm at the moment when he bowed: [If I just give extra points because I am a Slytherin and help a Gryffindor student, then it will only make people feel cold about the relationship between the houses. This time Slytherin, it was true that the Wonder Boy and his friends had failed—this was the reality we accepted. ]

After a slight pause, Opal lifted his delicate chin again, [It's not difficult for us to admit defeat.] However, we will not fail forever. Winning is impeccable, this is our pride. ]

"Okay."

Dumbledore, who didn't seem to want to give up, turned his gaze to Snape and the heads and prefects who were sitting at the Slytherin table, "But my dear child, why don't you consult your companions before refusing like this?" ”

Really......

At this point, Opal began to be extremely glad that he had already made a move with the other year leaders before the dinner began—otherwise he would definitely be in a lonely situation.

Maybe it's because Plain Riddle was quite dismissive when she mentioned Dumbledore in her ear, and Opal had indeed been at a disadvantage because of his experience when he faced Dumbledore before. So from the very beginning, it can be said that Opal has a very subtle hostility towards Dumbledore's attitude.

Because of this, consciously or unconsciously, Opal would try not to fall too far behind when facing Dumbledore, just as he did at this moment.

In fact, Opal himself understands that his actions are simply a kind of childlike mood battle - but there is no way, just against Dumbledore, Opal does not want to always be at a disadvantage.

"As our first-year head said."

At this time, the graduating student, who was the chief of the seventh year, stood up and bowed his head, "Although there is no limit to the means, our Slytherin victory has always been unassailable. This is our insistence - even if it is insignificant to you. ”

Despite the superficial truth, Opal was well aware that Slytherin would never refuse glory.

If it weren't for the fact that at the first chief meeting, she did not hesitate to use the "charm technique" she saw in Senior Sister Qianwei's book, and then gave the corresponding analysis and commitment, I am afraid that the current result will definitely not be the current scene where all the grade chiefs support her.

“……”

There was a brief silence.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

I don't know where it started, but there was a slight applause in the hall restaurant. Then the slight applause spilled over, and even at the Gryffindor table, there were people clapping in agreement.

It is undeniable that the other three houses other than Slytherin have all changed their minds in this matter to a greater or lesser extent - and Slytherin, regardless of which little snake it is, is quite happy to see it.

Harry, who was almost the first to applaud in the Gryffindor, looked at the Slytherin table to meet the eye of Opal, who had already sat down and was talking to Draco beside him, and then received a slight smile from her - it seemed that she really didn't have the slightest idea of blaming him for the extra points.

So, was his previous idea about Slytherin right because of Ron and Draco?

After smiling reflexively, a flash of thought flashed in Harry's blue eyes, and then his eyes that he didn't have time to look away seemed to be noticed by Draco, who was sitting next to Opal, and the dark Turkish blue eyes almost glared at him.

Harry just shrugged his shoulders and looked away - for he and Ron and Hermione and even Neville were surrounded by the other Gryffindor students.

Although there are still people in Slytherin who he finds quite annoying, it would be better to find a time to contact Opal again in the future.
