Although he said that he would not go, but when it was Christmas, Severus still went.

Not with Gwen Jones, though.

After all, it's Christmas, it's the biggest holiday in the West, and of course you should spend the holiday with your family at this time, so even if Gwen is very willing to spend Christmas with Severus.

But Severus refused.

Let's wait until this kind of little seedling grows up, but I don't have any interest in it now.

Similarly, Dumbledore invited Severus to spend Christmas with him.

But Severus was even less interested in being around a bad old man, even though Dumbledore repeatedly said he was alone.

Speaking of which, there are quite a few lonely people among the professors at Hogwarts.

And it's not just Hogwarts, there are quite a lot of single people in the wizarding world, and most of them are wizards.

It is estimated that it has a lot to do with the fact that there are fewer witches, especially in the witch hunts of the Middle Ages, many witches were persecuted, which also led to the fact that the Muggle world did not recruit as many witches as male witches.

It's no wonder that many of the boys at Hogwarts look at Severus as if they were looking at a class enemy, and it probably has a lot to do with Severus getting too close to the two prettiest witches in the school.

Sometimes even Dumbledore was like that, but he probably just thought of the one in Newmengard.

Therefore, even if Dumbledore pretends to be pitiful, but no, no, it doesn't work, especially because Dumbledore is still unclear.

Speaking of which, Severus still wants to complain about the holiday of Christmas.

There's nothing wrong with the festival itself, and Christmas in the wizarding world isn't a day to celebrate the coming of Jesus.

In the Middle Ages, wizards were persecuted by the Holy See, and it was impossible for a wizard to celebrate the birthday of his opponent.

And the origin of Christmas is much older than that of the Holy See, so this holiday was originally used to welcome the New Year, that is, the Saturnalia of ancient Rome and the Celtic harvest festival, but after the invasion of the Holy See, it was changed to Christmas.

So the wizarding world is actually a New Year.

What Severus wants to complain about is that almost everyone in the wizarding world knows that it is a New Year, but the way it is celebrated is no different from Christmas in the Muggle world.

The same Christmas tree, Christmas gifts, Christmas decorations, even the food is the same.

How can this not make people complain?

Even the names are the same, and the way of celebration is the same, but the wizards think they are celebrating the New Year, not the birthday of Jesus!

This is obviously the fault of one party, and it also shows the extent of Muggles' invasion and influence on wizards.

The school was closed before the holidays, and there were not many students left, even the "homeless" Slytherins were reluctant to stay at school at Christmas.

In addition, last year's Christmas was not celebrated well because of the aftermath of Voldemort's downfall, so this year's celebration is extraordinarily grand.

So much so that the Ministry of Magic directly regarded the original Weird Sisters' concert as a Christmas celebration.

The celebration is held in the morning and is said to be in order not to interfere with family reunions in the evening.

And the location is in Hogsmeade, which is a wizarding town, so you don't have to worry about Muggle disturbances, and you don't need to be too big, just have a tent big enough to look like you've entered a circus tent from the outside.

Coupled with the patrol Aurors and the ticket restrictions, there are not many people inside.

At least not with the Quidditch World Cup.

This also shows how popular Quidditch is.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that this celebration is limited to the United Kingdom, where the World Cup brings together wizards from all over the world.

Once inside the tent, it was no different from a large studio, with a large stage in the center and three tiers of auditoriums on all sides, which looked like it should be able to accommodate four or five thousand people.

Severus came in with the Lucius family, and was able to rub into the top box.

Severus could have done it himself, but why bother?

Lucius was also in the same box as the Minister of Magic, Bagno, and the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor Charles Singerman, in addition, even the old Barty Crouch, who had not been seen for a long time, and then a few officials of the Ministry of Magic who were not very familiar.

Severus looked like a wolf mixed in with the flock.

But it was clear that they had their own agendas, and no one came to bother Severus.

Therefore, Severus only whispered a few words to Lucius, and then quietly waited for the celebration to begin.

On the other side of Lucius was Narcissa holding Draco, and Dobby, the house-elf, was supposed to be hidden next to him, but the elf didn't have the right to show up to watch the festivities.

Draco was also over two years old, and was now able to speak sentences, as well as recognize and greet people.

However, his tone was dim, and it seemed that he already had plans to study like Lucius.

The little one's eyes were fixed on Severus, and when Severus looked over, he immediately turned his head away, pretending to be like a Malfoy.

Of course, it looks like it must be a Slytherin.

When everyone is almost there, the celebration officially begins.

The first to come up was a male host, who seemed to be just a host.

Anyway, it's quite like that.

The host is a young and handsome blonde wizard, and when he first came on stage, he also caused a crowd of middle-aged women to scream, which looked quite popular.

And when he introduced himself, Severus learned that this guy was Gilderoy Lockhart, a well-known writer in the wizarding world, and he might be even more famous in the future.

He looked like he was twenty-five or sixteen, a few years older than Severus.

And compared to the high coldness and even the coldness, coupled with the paleness of the lack of sunlight, Severus, who looks like an ascetic male god,

Lockhart was more of a sunny boy, and he really looked good when he smiled, at least that's what the middle-aged women in the room thought.

It seems that he has started writing books now,

I don't know which one is out, so I'd better buy it if I have time.

Although Lockhart's character is not like this, and the book is still written by forgetting the curse of prostitution.

But the story itself is true, and that's worth watching.

Moreover, his literary attainments are still not low, and Lockhart may be more suitable for teaching English to first-year wizards than Dumbledore.

At least he's good at livening up the atmosphere, isn't he.

Just a moment, the wizards of the entire venue were mobilized by him,

And then, Minister Bagno made a speech!

There was a huge boo in the audience!

After waiting for a while, the show officially began.

First up on stage were, of course, the Weird Sisters, the most famous band in the wizarding world in recent years.

Despite the names of the Eccentric Sisters, the members are all male, and as such, rumored to be, they may all be gay.

It is estimated that because of this, they became Dumbledore's favorite band.

In addition to them, many bands invited by the Ministry of Magic, including Setina, also came.

The atmosphere was joyful again.

This gave Severus a bit of a headache, not that he didn't like this kind of occasion, but that it was really easy to get into trouble.

Not to mention that Ed may be in Hogsmeade, just the celebrations of the wizarding world over the years or the Quidditch Cup, there are really few things that don't happen.

Of course, the 1994 World Cup was the most serious.
