Chapter 782: Public Humiliation
"Are you threatening me?" asked Igor Karkarov, narrowing his eyes and in a very unfriendly manner.
As a former Death Eater, he didn't have a good temper and never understood what was going on at Hogwarts, why Dumbledore was suddenly wanted by the British Ministry of Magic.
"Threaten? no! no!" Zhang Cheng smiled and shook his head. "It's not a threat, it's just a kind reminder. I don't want Durmstrang students to see in public that their headmaster is an idiot and an imbecile. ”
"Hubris, you think you can win me in a duel?" Karkarov apparently sensed the undisguised contempt in his tone, and finally couldn't help but burst into a monstrous rage.
This is a common room, surrounded by students and teachers from the three major European schools of magic, and the slightest weakness on his part will immediately become a laughing stock in the wizarding world, and even the most humiliating headmaster of Durmstrang by the outside world.
Can't hold back!
Don't be weak!
The most important thing is that he doesn't feel that the young Oriental in front of him can pose a threat to himself who is good at all kinds of black magic.
"Duel?hahahaha!" Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise and laughed unscrupulously.
Not only was he laughing, but all the Hogwarts students were laughing too, and Barty Crouch, disguised as the Mad-Eye Moody, hid in the corner, staring at Karkaroff with a vicious gaze, considering whether to take advantage of the opportunity to add to the fire.
After all, after the fall of the Dark Lord, this guy betrayed his fellow Death Eaters who fought side by side as soon as possible, and exchanged them for his own escape from punishment.
It can be said that none of the Death Eaters who are still loyal to Voldemort do not hate Karkaroff and are eager to kill him with their own hands.
From the point of view of human nature, a traitor is always more hateful than an enemy......
Obviously, the laughter echoing in the hall at this moment was regarded by Karkaroff as a naked humiliation, and he immediately cried out through gritted teeth: "I! Igor Karkarov, the headmaster of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has officially sent out an invitation to a duel. ”
"No problem, I accept. Zhang Cheng had a playful smile on his face, raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.
Moment!
The tables and chairs in the center of the auditorium were all moved around automatically, freeing up a large circular space.
I saw him step into the middle of the field, draw the supreme authority disguised as a wand, raise his arm and gracefully make an inviting motion.
Although Minerva McGonagall tried to stand up several times to stop the conflict, he was finally stopped by Snape next to him.
In this way, under the gaze of those pairs of expectant or playful eyes, Igor Karkarov also followed to the center of the field, and the whole person was like a poisonous snake exuding an extremely cold aura.
In a way, that's his truest side.
As for the usual serious-looking image, it's all disguised.
"Three!"
"Two!"
"One!"
......
With the countdown of the onlookers in unison, this "duel" that had no suspense from the beginning finally began.
To be exact, before he could raise his wand and unleash his first spell, Karkaroff found himself unable to move, not even blinking his eyes.
"Ah! It seems that Mr. Headmaster of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry wants to show off his demeanor, so let's bow to each other first. Zhang Cheng teased in a malicious tone, and at the same time owed a little.
At the same time, Karkaroff also bent down uncontrollably and made a big bow of more than ninety degrees.
This strange situation, not to mention those who know his character very well, even the onlookers noticed that something was wrong.
Because Karkaroff is not a polite person, let alone this kind of servant-like bow of more than ninety degrees.
But before the people around him could react to what was happening, Zhang Cheng gently waved his wand and shot out colorful rays of light.
Blink Kung Fu!
The off-white coat worn by Karkaroff was gone, replaced by white tights and a little white skirt worn by female ballet dancers.
Next Second......
To the sound of Swan Lake music coming from somewhere, he began to dance, performing one difficult ballet move after another.
At this time, even a fool understands that Igor Karkarov has already lost, and very completely, not so much in a duel as in a public humiliation.
The students from Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry turned their heads, unable to bear to see their headmaster being teased like dolls by his rivals.
A full half an hour!
It wasn't until poor Karkaroff danced the first scene that he found that the powerful force that controlled him suddenly disappeared and regained control of his body.
As a dark wizard, he clearly knew what that meant.
This means that if the other party wants to kill someone, he will not even have a chance to escape.
So he didn't even say a word of nonsense, he just turned around and rushed out, and he didn't even have time to change the ridiculous female ballerina tights on his body.
Admiring the embarrassed back of the other party, Zhang Cheng curled the corners of his mouth and teased in a half-joking tone: "Wow! I really didn't expect that dear Mr. Principal Karkaroff would have such amazing attainments in art." I bet it's hard for even the most professional ballet dancer to dance as well as he does. ”
"Poof!hahahaha!"
"That's right!
"This is truly the best duel I've ever seen in my life!"
"Long live Swan Lake!"
......
As the saying goes, those who watch the excitement are not afraid of chaos, so Hogwarts students don't care about the feelings of the guests who come from afar, and laugh at each other loudly in various ways.
Some of the more radical Slytherins even raised their chins and stared at the students of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who surrounded Victor Klum with defiant eyes.
Feeling the growing smell of gunpowder in the hall, Snape finally couldn't help but lean over and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to do?"
"Why, of course, to make Hogwarts the best school of witchcraft and wizardry in all of Europe, and indeed in the world. Don't you think Dumbledore has emasculated too many of the good traditions here, especially the bloodiness and fighting spirit, and I'm going to reawaken them now......" Zhang replied with a deep smile.
Anyway, Triwizard Tournament is a magical contract with strong binding, so no matter how much he humiliates Karkaroff, Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry must stay to complete the game and win the favor of the Hogwarts students.
