Chapter 10: Night Talk
"How did they treat her like that!" In Daphany's tent, Hermione walked back and forth angrily, saying, "Mr. Diggory has always called her 'Leprechaun...... And Mr. Crouch! He knew she didn't do it, but he still wanted to fire her! He didn't care how scared she was, how sad she wasβhe didn't treat her like a human being at all! β
"In fact, they are not humans, but elves." Daphne didn't care, in fact, it wasn't just her, but Cho Zhang, Daphne and others on the side didn't care either.
Daphne and the others all have house-elves in their homes, and sisters Cho and Petyr don't have house-elves in their homes, but they do have another kind of goblins from their own country that serve magicians. This is all too common in traditional wizarding families.
"But that doesn't mean they don't have feelings!" Hermione argued, but she couldn't get angry with Daphine. She knew that Daphne also had house-elves in her house. But apparently the elves in Daphany's house are much more nourished. At least in her opinion, whether it is Jingjing, Ruka and Meilu, they seem to be very happy every day. Stephanie also took in the evicted Twilight - for which Mr. Crouch seemed very angry, but he was clearly unwilling to take back his words.
"Well, now is not the time to discuss this." Daphany smiled and waved her hand: "It's not long before school starts, tomorrow I will arrange for Jingjing to send you back, and get along with your parents in the last few days of the holiday." After that, you won't see it until Christmas, at least. β
Hermione was still a little unhappy, but she could see that Daphne or Daphne or the others really didn't care about it at all. It's useless to say it yourself.
"Speaking of which," Parvati suddenly spoke, and asked worriedly, "Daphany, what do you think of tonight's events, the mark in the sky, could it be that person......
"Impossible!" Daphany shook her head affirmatively, "I saw the man, a young man." Certainly not Voldemort! β
"Don't say his name...... Daphne shuddered, although the Greengrass family was not targeted by Voldemort back then, those days are still fresh in the memory of that generation. Daphne also grew up listening to those horror stories. This is why, although Slytherin and Gryffindor do not deal with each other, those children have a certain affection for Harry, both in the original story and after being influenced by Daphany. After all, because of Harry, Voldemort is gone. Of course, Slytherin didn't like Harry later, and it was mostly out of envy and hatred. After all, Harry grew up living in their ears and was a typical child of someone else's family.
"Why, a name scares you so much?" Hermione asked, a little curiously, "Just a name." β
"At this time, your background makes you extra lucky." Daphne said with emotion, and then noticed that Hermione's face was a little unsightly. After thinking about it, he found that there was something wrong with his words, and quickly added: "I don't mean anything else." β
Hermione could also tell from Daphne's tone that the other party really didn't mean to taunt.
Daphany interrupted the embarrassment by interjecting: "There is a reason for this fear. Voldemort cast a spell on his name! Daphne said and waved her hand to soothe Daphne and the others, who were obviously a little unnatural when they heard the name again: "In his prime, the person who pronounces this name will be noticed by him. And he can quickly find that person based on this. Therefore, the magicians did not dare to say his name. However, there were some people who were not afraid of him, such as Professor Dumbledore. β
"Of course Dumbledore is not afraid, that person is very jealous of Dumbledore even when he is at his strongest." Daphne pouted.
"Now, we don't need to be afraid." Daphany laughed, "Voldemort may not be dead now, but it is not at all comparable to his heyday. As you know, Harry and I met him once in first year. Seeing that everyone nodded, Dafanie continued: "At that time, Voldemort was neither human nor ghost, and he was only a thing in the state of a soul, even inferior to a ghost. I don't know which rat or hedgehog is attached to it. β
Daphany's words made the other girls feel relieved. Although Daphine knew that if everything was normal, Voldemort would probably be resurrected this year. But there is no need to let the little sisters know about this. Wouldn't it be better to keep them happy during this time?
First it was a wonderful World Cup match, and then there was so much commotion in the evening. The little girls were not sleepy until late at night. Hee-hee-ha talked about a lot of girls' topics.
The girls in the tent today are from all three houses, except for the girls who don't have Hufflepuff. Although they both have a good relationship with Daphany, they can only barely be familiar with each other. After tonight, it was obvious that they had become acquainted with each other again.
"By the way," Daphne said mysteriously, "have you heard about that?" β
"What's going on?" The little sister Astoria looked at her sister curiously. The picture is broadcast all over the world
"What's the matter?" Hermione's attention was also successfully diverted: "It seems that Ron's brother Bill and Charlie also know something, but they always pretend to be sophisticated!" After saying that, he looked at Daphne badly, the meaning is obvious, if you don't say it, you are also pretending to be profound.
Before today, Daphne didn't care about Hermione at all, although she maintained a certain crush on Hermione because of Daphany. But in his bones, although he doesn't look down on it, he really doesn't care. But after chatting for a long time today, the relationship between them has become closer. And seeing that the few little sisters around them were all interested, they no longer hung people's appetites and said with a smile: "The Triwizard Tournament is going to restart this year." β
"Really?" Everyone present, except for Daphne, who had known about this for a long time, was very surprised. The news has not yet spread widely. After all, the competition doesn't start until October or even November, and there's still a lot of preparation and coordination to be done during this time.
"I've heard about this contest!" Hermione also looked excited: "It's said to be a very old and very formal competition. However, I heard that because there were too many casualties caused by the previous competition, it has been suspended for a long time! β
"yes!" Daphne had the heart to show off, and at this time she couldn't care about the appetite of the hanged people, and said excitedly: "My grandfather is the honorary director of the International Magic Federation, so I knew for a long time that the council wanted to restart the competition. However, it was decided that the reopening would start this year, and it was only decided in the past few months. And ......," Daphne said, deliberately pulling a long note, until her sister Astoria made a gesture to tickle her, "Moreover, the place where this edition will be held is Hogwarts." β
"Our school is going to hold a triwizard tournament!" Hermione was completely excited: "Can I participate, who can participate, alas, when I saw this, I saw that it hadn't been held for a long time, and I didn't remember anything." With that, Hermione patted her head in annoyance.
"Three academies, each student can only choose one warrior as a contestant!" Daphne pouted slightly, clearly unimpressed that Hermione wanted to participate in the Triwizard Tournament. But her movements were small and fleeting, and no one but Daphany noticed.
"There can only be one warrior in an academy, and that must be the best student in the academy...... Pavati said, looking at Daphany with the old god on the side. With her gaze, everyone's eyes converged on Daphany's.
"I said, why are you all staring at me? Flowers on my face? Daphany said with a smile.
"Alas, only one student is allowed in an academy, and that must be Daphany you!" Hermione pouted, unhappy. Although Hermione's grades, and in this case, test scores, crushed Daphany every year, there was really no disputable who was the strongest student in the house. After all, Hermione didn't think that the Race of Champions would be a quill answer.
"Yes, yes!" Most of the other girls nodded their heads one after another. Girls may not all be lovers of dueling clubs, but they always go to it a few times a semester. So everyone knows very well that Daphany is dominant. Not to mention a group of students, even a teacher who is a little worse will have to deal with Daphany carefully.
Tonight's events prove that even more. Although most of the rioting wizards ran away. However, a small number of them were caught. And the most of these captured wizards were subdued by Daphany. Turning water into hail and smashing a large chunk, and then dropping several more with Harry. Of all the wizards who were caught, more than one-fifth were made by Daphany.
Even adult wizards look vulnerable to Daphany. Not to mention competing against a group of students.
"Hehe, don't be frustrated!" Padma Pettier smiled coquettishly, "Although we may not be able to secure a place for the players, at least the final winner will most likely be Hogwarts." I don't believe that other schools can have someone as good as Daphany. β
"Not necessarily." But Hermione shook her head and said, "Although I also think that Daphany is very powerful, but the world is so big after all, and there are geniuses in other countries." As far as Daphany and I know, there is a little girl in the United States who is also very strong. β
"You're talking about Meng, right?" Daphany smiled. Hermione was talking about Meng Yuchen, she was very impressed with Meng Yuchen, not to mention anything else, her Patronus Charm was taught by Meng Yuchen.
Hermione didn't refute what the others said, except for Astoria, everyone else present had seen Meng Yuchen at Daphany's house. After all, during the summer vacation of the second year, Meng Yuchen lived in Lestrancy Manor for a long time.
"Meng's strength is indeed not bad, but I think Daphany is a little stronger." Cho Zhang smiled and sent encouragement cards to Daphne. The latter immediately smiled, and Qiu continued: "Moreover, the triwizard battle is a competition between the three traditional European academies. Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is not in the competition. β
Daphany smiled and didn't speak. I'm afraid this may not be.
