Ding Ding Dong~????

The bell rang for the end of class, and soon the students began to leave the large classroom in Hogwarts Castle one after another.

Undoubtedly, judging by the excited looks on the faces of the students who left, this open class of magic conducted by Professor Anne at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry must have been the most successful and popular Charms class in the school's history!

Although, even if so far, that kind of 'open class' is only the second session?

Because today, in this open class, both students and professors have unexpectedly learned a real and effective spell that can successfully fight against the most terrible death curse among the three unforgivable spells, and against the super multi-purpose protective spell of 'Avada Suo' - 'Barrier'!

This kind of thing must be a powerful shot in the arm for the British wizarding community, which is now being more and more nervous by the Death Eaters! I believe that by tomorrow morning at the latest, the new issue of the Daily Prophet and other major wizarding newspapers will be full of descriptions of the 'Barrier' spell and a large report on Professor Anne, who was specially hired by Hogwarts.

This kind of thing is certainly, certainly, definitely, and absolutely certain!!

Some of the professors who were leaving the classroom were still wondering if the Ministry of Magic would nominate Professor Anne and send her a Merlin medal and related honors. After all, the achievement of publicizing and teaching a protective spell that has proven to be effective against the Unforgivable Curse is nothing less than the 'Twelve Uses of Fire Dragon's Blood'!

Of course, this kind of thing is just thinking about it now, because now both students and professors are still immersed in the new spell that they have just learned and are not yet familiar with, and the spell is just beginning to spread from Hogwarts to the entire wizarding world through the hands of students and professors, and as for what kind of storm it will cause, it will be known tomorrow at the earliest......

After all, the wizarding world basically relies on owls for communication, so it is a little behind in terms of timeliness, and the authoritative "Daily Prophet" is only updated once a day, so it is natural to wait for an afternoon and evening to brew.

'Not true! ’

'You're not doing that!!' ’

And at this time,

Not far away, in the corner of the classroom, the know-it-all Miss Granger, Hermione, did not leave the classroom, but was using her wand to her two friends, demonstrating and teaching Ron and Harry to cast spells.

The three of them didn't leave as the bell rang, nor did they gather around Professor Anne like Headmaster Dumbledore and other teachers and students, and didn't pester a little girl to explain more points, but just practiced on their own.

'Ron! ’

'Your gesture is wrong!' ’

'The correct technique is to turn the wand three times in a second in a radius of no more than one foot, and then raise the wand quickly above the head while reciting the incantation......

'And ......'

'Didn't you find out?' The larger the radius, the more mana will be consumed, and the greater the barrier shield will be if you succeed, and if you're not trying to protect someone else, don't do that for a protective spell, because that will only waste your mana and time!! ’

That said, the smaller the circle you draw, the better, because your magic isn't far from the maximum enough to sustain a one-foot radius!" ’

Also, three clockwise turns, not half a circle or even a quarter of a turn! So you have to be fast and accurate! In the spell?? ναεμπ?? Before you can finish chanting, you must raise your wand above your head and complete the spell! ’

‘！！ ’

'Harry! Don't try to be tricky, your wand isn't spinning in circles at all, you're shaking from side to side, and it's weird to be able to release your shield normally! ’

'Okay......

'I know you're trying to save as much time as possible so it's worth it......

But it's like you can't swallow a chunk of pork chops in one bite, and until you're fully proficient and comfortable with them, you'd better not try your little idea of compressing time, because whether it's a silent spell or a quick spell, or an instantaneous spell, it's all based on great skill!! ’

And do you think Professor Anne taught us to have to go around three times for fun? ’

'You should have learned geometry, right?' ’

'Well, it doesn't matter if you haven't learned...... I think Hogwarts should add a basic math and geometry ......

'I'm going to tell you now that the principle is to make three quick clockwise turns to form three concentric circles with different faces, and then to use these three concentric circles to build a whole sphere ......with the magic power.'

'At the end of the day, raise your wand and wrap yourself or the people around you in the ball......

Remember, you must be as fast as possible, otherwise the ball you have just built will collapse quickly, and even if the spell is pronounced, you will fail to cast the spell!" ’

'Now, you're going to see me one last time?' ’

'Make three turns, then ......'

‘?? ναεμπ?? διο！！！ ’

With the sound of the spell and the head of the wand, made of vine wood and containing the tendon cord of the dragon's heart, suddenly lit up with a golden light, and a spherical shield instantly appeared on the young fourth-year witch, around Hermione Granger's body.

There is no doubt that her spell casting is successful and perfect, and she can't find any more flaws.

"Ah......h

"It's an amazing level of comprehension and magic, and some of what she just said was something I didn't even expect...... Headmaster Dumbledore, I bet Miss Granger must be the most talented student we have ever had at Hogwarts! ”

"You may not know that in my class, she was always the first to successfully cast the spells I taught my students......"

Looking at the three students in the distance, hearing each other's conversations, especially after hearing Hermione's words and seeing the other party's textbook-like demonstration movements, the Charms professor standing next to Dumbledore, Professor Filius Flitwick, shook his head at Headmaster Dumbledore in front of him with some sighs.

In his opinion, if Hermione wasn't too young, and many of his experience problems weren't up to his current level, they really wouldn't have anything to give to that wonderful witch.

"Ah......h

"That's true, Flitwick....... you're right"

Dumbledore touched his nose with some embarrassment, not going to comment on it further.

Because, he wouldn't tell Professor Frieus Flitwick that the reason why that little Granger girl behaved so well, and why she was able to master the 'barrier' spell so quickly, was actually because the other party had just secretly copied his Dumbledore's notes and practiced it for most of the lesson?

Of course, even if it was because the other party copied his notes, but I have to admit that Hermione Granger was indeed the one he Dumbledore had ever seen, the best student Hogwarts had ever seen, and there was no one!

As for it, it is not known for the time being that the little girl in front of her, Professor Anne, taught in advance.

However, seeing that Professor McGonagall was now asking the little girl and some of the studious students some small questions, Dumbledore was amuseful not to ask if the other party had taught Miss Granger's 'barrier' spell beforehand, which didn't matter anyway.

“……”

After thinking about it, Dumbledore turned to look at Snape, who was still in the classroom and hadn't had time to leave:

"Severus, you were really too reckless just now......"

Actually, just now in class, when the other party used the death curse to attack Anne, Dumbledore still subconsciously exclaimed in his heart...... Because, he felt that Snape's direct targeting and attack on Anne was still a little too aggressive.

After all, in that case, the other party can completely wipe the edge of the shield and make a tentative attack, so there is no need to be so serious, because in that case, even if you accidentally break the shield, it doesn't matter much?

‘……’

Hum!

"Mr. Headmaster Dumbledore!"

"I had your permission at the time, so how could I prove to the students that the true effect of the spell if I didn't do that?!"

With that, Snape turned around and left.

Now that class is over, he's gotten what he wants, and he's tested and experienced the spell called 'Barrier', so there's no need for him to stay with the other professors and students.

As for the long-winded and somewhat stubborn Dumbledore and the other party's words of complaining about himself, he didn't take it to heart.

'That's really ......'

'I don't understand you people......

╭(′?? o ?? ′)╭??

'Is there any difference between setting fire to a person and killing an enemy with Avada's life?' ’

"Avada can still keep a corpse, it should be a milder spell, right?" And if it is burned by me, it will turn to ashes, how can it be called the Unforgivable Curse, but the fire is not blazing? ’

（?????????? ）

Then, as Dumbledore watched Snape leave with some wry, and before he could say anything, he heard the voice of the little girl, Anne, who was talking to the group of students and professors.

Apparently, Professor Anne seemed to be arguing with McGonagall and the students around her about something.

So, who wanted to get out of here early, go back and drink some mead or eat some cockroach heaps, and then rest well for the afternoon in order to recharge his energy and prepare for Halloween and the Triwizard Tournament in the evening, he had to stop the tempting thought and had to walk towards the crowd.

‘！！ ’

!？ (??''????)??

'You're talking nonsense! ’

'What kind of black magic and white magic are there?' What you can use and use for yourself is good magic!! ’

(??????????????)

"Ahem......"

"Professor Anne, could you please be a little more cautious when you speak? Alright, kids, it's getting late, it's time for you guys to go back......"

When he noticed that the argument between the crowd was becoming more and more intense, and that a certain little girl professor was spreading some bad thoughts, Dumbledore quickly pretended to cough outside the crowd, directly interrupting the argument between the teachers and students and began to chase people away.

"Professor Anne......

"That's all for today's argument, although your point is very new, but I think ...... I'm afraid that the students won't be able to understand and accept it for a while, so ...... If you can, I hope you'd be better off posting ideas that would be bothersome to students in the future. ”

"Because that kind of thing is very bad, very bad......"

In Dumbledore's opinion, the little girl in front of him, who was a professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, was now openly spreading the idea that dark arts were 'relative justice' to his students in the classroom, which was obviously extremely wrong!

After all, that kind of thinking is seriously inconsistent with their mainstream perception of the British wizarding world and the teaching philosophy of Hogwarts!

What's more, there are still representatives of the Ministry of Magic in the school, as well as some teachers and students from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament......

You know, Hogwarts has never been the Durmstrang who is more tolerant of the Dark Arts, and there are some things that definitely need to be a little bit more important, especially if the person who is making the opinion is still a Hogwarts professor?

"Okay, then whatever you want......"

s (???? ˇεˇ????) ゞ

Seeing that a certain bad old man of the headmaster came forward to stop her, little Anne thought about it and did not continue.

Because now, she has more important things to do, and if she can, she really wants to get out of here immediately, so she just followed the other party's words and shut up.

Actually, she didn't think about teaching these stupid guys magic in the first place, and now that some of her goals have been achieved, everything else is no longer so important.

"Hehe......"

"Thank you so much for cooperating with my bad old man's work."

Nodding his head, Dumbledore smiled with relief when he saw that the other party had not continued...... In his opinion, the truth can sometimes be a beautiful and terrible thing, so it needs to be treated with extra caution?

Therefore, he did not want Professor Anne to instill some bad ideas or ideas in the school, even if they were extremely correct! Because, that is likely to lead some students down the wrong path, after all, there has already been a terrible student in his school, and he doesn't want a second one.

‘！！ ’

"Huh?!"

Finding that there was nothing of his own to do here, Dumbledore, who was about to leave, suddenly turned his head hesitantly in the direction of the front door of the classroom, because he now noticed that there was a sharp and heavy footstep coming from this side, and the weight seemed to come from Hagrid?

'Whew! ’

"Teaching, Teaching, ......"

Call!

"Deng, Professor Dumbledore, it's a big deal!!"

Call~! Call~!

Striding and running into the classroom, running in front of Dumbledore, Hagrid, who was panting, first held his knees and evened out his breath twice, and then wiped the beads of sweat on his big face full of messy hair and beard, and anxiously wailed at Dumbledore who was much shorter than himself in front of him.

He had just come all the way from his hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and he had not rested in between, so that the cloth in his tight jacket was completely soaked with sweat......

"Huh? Hagrid, you are"

"What the hell is going on? Okay, you take a breath and slowly explain to me what is going on? ”

Seeing the other party's appearance, Dumbledore didn't show too much urgency, nor was he nervous, and he didn't even pay attention to the professors and students around him who were curiously gathered around and watched the excitement because they didn't leave, he just reached out and patted Hagrid's thick arm gently, and then asked slowly in a calm tone.

"Professor!"

Call!

"Yes...... That is true! It's the Pegasi, the rune horses of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, they're ...... One of them is missing!! ”

Taking a breath, Hagrid, a certain big man, suddenly subconsciously looked at a little girl who was also looking at him curiously, but he quickly shook his head again and turned towards the headmaster.

Hagrid knew that this incident should not have been done by the other party, because although the other party had full motives, he did not have any opportunity to commit the crime, and there was also evidence of a complete alibi, and almost when most of the teachers and students in the school could testify for him?

"You mean ......"

"Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry's giant Pegasus that only drinks pure malt whiskey, and one of them is missing?!"

Opening his mouth and 'oooh', then nodding, Dumbledore quickly figured out why the other party was so anxious, and then his brow with reading glasses finally began to wrinkle slightly.

"That's right!"

"Professor Dumbledore, it's Lady Maxime's Pegasus, just now!!"

Although the beautiful Pegasi were not his own, Hagrid felt like his children after taking care of them for the night. Of course he was nervous about the disappearance of one of them, and he might even care more about them than Madame Maxim, who was still unaware of them!

"Hmm......"

"Hagrid, when the hell did this happen, can you tell me a specific time?"

The disappearance of a Pegasus at Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is indeed not a trivial matter, so ah, Dumbledore also subconsciously looked at a certain little girl, but ...... He quickly dispelled that outrageous idea and suspicion, after all, the other party had been teaching them just now!

And the way to get the other party to appear in two places at the same time, although it is not impossible, but that kind of magical thing, such as the time turner that Miss Granger had applied for last semester, and that funny little pocket watch, which has long been recycled by the Ministry of Magic, will definitely not be in the hands of that Professor Anne.

"Just now, about half an hour ago! I did Madame Maxim's instructions and let them go out for a round of movement! ”

Speaking of which, Hagrid was a little anxious......

You know, the Pegasi went out in good shape, seven in all, and he swore he counted them carefully! But when they flew for a short time and came back, there were only six left?

At first, he thought that the last one might have been delayed and came back a little late, or that he had lost his way because he was unfamiliar with the place, but he waited and waited, and finally waited for nearly half an hour and did not see the missing Pegasus come back?

So, when he finally realized that something was going to happen, he had to hurriedly lock up the remaining six Pegasi to make sure that they all stayed in the stable and didn't run around, so he hurried here to find Dumbledore, hoping that the other party could think of a good solution for him?

After all, this matter can be big or small, and those rare Pegasi are not their Hogwarts family, and if Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry does not let go of it, I'm afraid things will not be easy!

Furthermore

Hagrid had heard that Pegasi were precious, a symbol of good fortune at Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, otherwise Madame Maxim wouldn't have told her many times to take care of them! And, if you think about it, the emblem of the other school is two Pegasus, so you can see what those beautiful animals mean to Beauxbatons!

So, there are some things that he doesn't dare to imagine now.

"Don't ...... in a hurry"

Dumbledore stretched out his hand to stop the other man's attempts to urge him, and began to ponder......

He was pondering, and one by one, wondering what other creatures would attack such a beautiful creature within the confines of Hogwarts......

A certain little girl with the most motive to commit the crime and a 'criminal record' was first ruled out by him, because he knew that this would definitely not be done by Professor Anne, the other party had been staying here since two o'clock in the afternoon, and had never left, and there must be no time to commit the crime!

Could it be that those Thestrals did it?

However, although Thestrals is an omnivorous animal, it also prefers blood and raw meat...... However, Thestrals can basically be regarded as a subspecies of Pegasus, and the other party will definitely not attack Madame Maxim's rune horses, besides, they are not necessarily opponents of rune horses in terms of number and size.

Could it be a Hippogriff?

It was indeed a very ferocious carnivore, but it was still mainly a prey on insects, birds, mice, fawns or ferrets, and they had never been heard of preying on the large prey of Pegasus!

After all, they don't necessarily have the size to beat those rune horses!!

Originally, the most likely, I am afraid that the spiders that Hagrid used to raise in the Forbidden Forest, the eight-eyed giant spider Aragog and his descendants are indeed the most suspicious, because their greed and predatory ability are obvious to all! Assuming they hadn't been burned to death by a little girl two years ago, and then wiped out by the horses with their nests?

It's a pity......

You know, the venom of the eight-eyed spider has always been one of Hogwarts' stable sources of income before, and he Dumbledore is not a small ......

Well, that kind of thing has nothing to do with the Pegasus he needs to deal with now, so let's stop thinking about the boring things that are a thing of the past for a while.

Hagrid ......

"You say...... Could it be that it is lost? ”

After pondering for a while, after ruling out all possibilities, Dumbledore felt that it was impossible for such a horse to disappear for no reason, and it was unlikely that it would be preyed on by other magical beasts, so he could only persuade Hagrid like this.

"Absolutely not!!"

"I saw that the Pegasi who came back were not as quiet as usual, they looked panicked, they must have been attacked or frightened by something! You may not know, Professor Dumbledore, I'm worried about the Pegasus that didn't come back, so think about it!! ”

Thinking about it for a moment, Hagrid quickly shook his head, with its tousled hair and beard, violently.

If he could, Hagrid really didn't want to come to Headmaster Dumbledore for his own negligence and such a trivial matter, but he couldn't help it, because it was beyond his ability, and it was not only a matter of their own management of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but also involved the Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament, so he really had nothing else to do now.

“……”

"Well, I'll take you and see if I can use the traceability magic to see what they've been through?"

After thinking about it, it would indeed not end well if this matter was troubled by Madame Maxim, so after Dumbledore pondered for a while, he decided not to go back to rest first, and first go to the stable on the edge of the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid to see if he could find some useful clues?

Although, Dumbledore wasn't too good at magical beasts or tracking live......

But to be honest, Dumbledore really hoped that the Pegasi had been captured by some beast or that they had just gotten lost, or he might not have been able to explain himself to the Headmaster of Beauxbatons later? After all, this kind of thing happened to them at Hogwarts, and as the headmaster of the school, he did have to take care of it.

"Annie, I'm going to be busy with some things first, I'm looking forward to your next lecture?"

After nodding to Professor McGonagall and the students, Dumbledore smiled at the little girl again, and then, unable to reply, motioned for Hagrid to lead the way, and walked briskly after the other person to the outside of the classroom.

Now, looking at his stellar stride and shimmering spirits, where did he have the old feeling he had when he had asked for a place for that Weasley kid before? And if it weren't for the fact that the other party still had a long white beard, I'm afraid no one would believe him when he told others that he was an old man in his 110s, right?

"Okay!"

o(*?? ︶?? *)o

"Goodbye! Good luck to you? ”

(?????? ▽??????)

After raising her bear's cute paw to greet the two of them, little Annie didn't care if the professors or students present still had any doubts, she was already impatient, and after dropping the bear and picking up some of her own items, she disappeared into a dissipated arcane blue shimmer energy in a flash......

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

(Once again, Tiebs, who was selectively forgotten on the podium by some unscrupulous little master for some reason, said: It won't tell those stupid wizards and wizards that the so-called Pegasus is definitely not stolen by its little master!)

Because, its little master will never steal the owner's things, and his little master just carried out a hunting operation in the sky normally, reasonably, and standardly, and finally succeeded in catching a flying prey? ）

————————————

At night......

No one cares how the disappearance of the Pegasi at Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is handled, and the news has only been circulated on a small scale and has been selectively forgotten by the teachers and students at Hogwarts, because they have a practical spell to distract them and keep them talking about it, and that is the Triwizard Tournament!!

Relatively speaking, this Halloween party was quite a success, anyway, the weird laughing jack-o-lanterns floating in the air in the auditorium were very popular with the students! In fact, being able to eat a big dinner two nights in a row is a treatment that no one would refuse!

So, when the students had eaten and drunk enough, and when they saw that the satisfied young faces were all smiling, Dumbledore finally stood up and clapped his hands, and asked the Hogwarts house-elves to take away all the desserts, fruits, delicacies, and cutlery on the long tables in an instant and tidy them up completely.

"That's it!"

"Students, professors, and guests from afar......

"It's an exciting time, as you all know...... That's right, it's the 'Triwizard Tournament'! Now that the time is almost up, our Goblet of Fire is about to make its decision, you must be looking forward to it, right? ”

"Anyway, I'm looking forward to it as an old man, so ......"

Therefore, Dumbledore took out his wand suddenly, and then he didn't know what spell he cast, and all the teachers and students in the Great Hall were surprised to find that with a wave of his hand, all the candles and bonfires were extinguished at the same time, except for the candles in the jack-o'-lantern, and then the entire Great Hall fell into a state of half-light and half-darkness in an instant......

Then, of course, everyone's eyes were attracted by the burning and sparkling goblet of fire in front of Dumbledore, and by the blue-white magical flame that burned from its mouth.

"Hmm......"

"The time should be up!!"

Dumbledore put away his wand, ignoring the students' reactions, just pulling out his pocket watch and checking the time.

For now, the students were holding their breath and staring at the Goblet of Fire with all their attention, lest they miss some important link, so that the whole auditorium was silent, except for the 'rustling' and occasional popping of candles, and there was no need for him to maintain order at all.

Rumble~!

Suddenly, the Goblet of Fire exploded, and the blue-white magical flame suddenly turned fiery red, and a piece of charred parchment flew out of it.

"Hah! Let me see who the first warrior was? ”

Dumbledore quickly grabbed the parchment and handed it to his eyes, holding his reading glasses while checking them in the glow of the Goblet of Fire.

"It's the warriors of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! His name is—"

"Victor Krum!!

Crash~!!

With Dumbledore's shout, the entire Great Hall soon burst into lively and relatively fierce applause, and it was obvious that the legendary Seeker from Durmstrang was still very popular with many students at Hogwarts.

"Ahem......"

"Please be quiet!!"

However, Dumbledore's trademark amplification magic quickly overpowered the cheering students and Krum, who stood up to accept the fans' celebrations, as he had already had the second piece of parchment spit out of the Goblet of Fire.

Obviously, the second champion of the Triwizard Tournament has just been released......

"Warriors of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry! Her name is—"

"Fleur Delacul!!"

Boom la la la......

The loud applause rang out as the seventeen-year-old girl, who resembled a beautiful girl and was too desperate to die, stood up gracefully and saluted, but the applause soon stopped, and most of the people continued to pay attention to Headmaster Dumbledore and the Goblet of Fire in front of them, except for some of the boys who were fascinated by each other and subconsciously continued to applaud.

Because, exciting times are coming!

Their Hogwarts Warriors are about to be chosen, and the Triwizard Tournament, which has been revived for the first time in centuries, is about to begin in earnest, and many people are beginning to speculate about who will be the lucky ones to be chosen.

Burst!!

Living up to expectations, the Goblet of Fire spat out...... Two little pieces of parchment? Of course, it's probably just one sheet, but maybe it was burned in half because it was burned for too long and came out at the end?

Anyway, the teachers and students who saw Dumbledore reaching out and catching the two pieces of parchment were all thinking like that, they didn't think too much about it, they just held their breath again, wanting to hear their headmaster say that exciting name as soon as possible!

“……”

However, for some reason, their Headmaster Dumbledore didn't read it out for the first time after looking at the two pieces of parchment in his hand, but raised his head a little embarrassed and embarrassed and looked at the students in the Great Hall?

‘？？ ’

'Harry, what's wrong with Professor Dumbledore?' ’

'I don't know ......'

'Hermione, what do you think?' ’

'Maybe it was so badly burned that Professor Dumbledore couldn't tell whose name it was?' ’

'Ah......h

'That's too bad......

After waiting for a long time for the Hogwarts students to hear their headmaster pronounce the name, they finally began to speculate with some malice, just like Harry, Ron, and Hermione.

"Ahem......"

Finally, Dumbledore, who was a little embarrassed, turned his head to look at the professors in the faculty seats behind him, the two headmasters, and Barty Crouch, the representative of the Ministry of Magic, and had to bite the bullet and read:

"The warriors of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, they are—"

Hermione Granger and ...... Harry Potter?! ”

Obviously, even Professor Dumbledore was a little surprised by these two final lists, so when he read them out, he seemed a little unconfident, and still had a questioning tone?

So, after glancing up at the students who were stunned by the dim light of the jack-o'-lantern, he could only cast his innocent old eyes on the extinguished goblet of flame...... Now that the flame of that cup had been extinguished, and there wasn't a single piece of parchment left in it, he didn't seem to have a choice now?

You know, until the next Triwizard Tournament begins, the ancient magic on it won't rekindle the flame no matter what......

Bang la la la~!

‘！！ ’

'What? How are the two of them? ’

'How can there be two warriors?' And still a fourth-grader? ’

'Is this cheating at Hogwarts?' ’

'Maybe......

'Incredible! This is big international news!! ’

'It's over! Our Hogwarts is in a big mess this time, and this must be a huge scandal! ’

‘……’

'That Granger is it, she's really good, and a lot of 7th graders admire her, but what is that Potter? ’

'That's it! It is! He's worse than me......

'Tsk ......'

'It shouldn't be like that!!' ’

'Someone must be cheating!!' ’

'Unlikely, right?' But it's too messy......

'When did Potter and Granger sign up?' ’

'I don't know......

Soon, the entire Great Hall was filled with Dumbledore's announcement...... Then, one of the two parties, that is, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter, could only look at me and I could look at you in a daze in the midst of the fingers and onlookers of the classmates.

‘……’

"Harry, Hermione, did you throw your name in?"

Finally, a certain envious, jealous, hateful, and inexplicable Ron subconsciously questioned his two friends in his heart.

‘！！ ’

'I didn't!! ’

Harry shook his head in a hurry, his mind was blank now......

‘！！ ’

'Neither did I! I swear!! ’

Hermione was sure that she hadn't signed up!

Although, when she first heard her name read out by the principal, in addition to being stunned, she was also excited, surprised, proud, and a little proud...... However, she is not a person who likes to show off, she is only a little proud at most, and she will never say her name and throw it into the Goblet of Fire!

‘……’

'You two liars!!!' ’

Finally, after seeing Harry and Hermione's performance, Ron turned his head away with a grimace and a cold snort.

He decided that he would never pay attention to these two people again this semester!

Because, these two guys ridiculed him at noon and advised him not to sign up......

Can you see it now?

Now it's good that these two guys are in front of each other and behind them?

It's unforgivable......

These two hypocrites and villains clearly didn't let Ron sign up, but secretly went behind his back, and then they didn't know how to choose the warriors of Hogwarts, which is really unreasonable!

Those two, what did they think of Ron for, and let them tease and mock the clown?!

This ......

It's disgusting!

Anyway, Ron felt like he was about to be blown up! He now only feels that the whole world is his enemy, even his best and most trustworthy best friends!!

The world, for him Ron, is really full of malice......

‘……’

‘……’

While the students were arguing and arguing, Dumbledore in the professorship, the headmasters of the two schools, and the representatives of the Ministry of Magic began to negotiate urgently!

After all, is it true that there was a little accident in the Triwizard Tournament now? Therefore, it is definitely necessary to negotiate the rules of the game, otherwise, the game will not need to go on.

"No way!"

"Why can there be two players at Hogwarts? It's not fair!! ”

"I strongly protest and suggest: either we will re-elect immediately, or simply cancel the place of one of the Hogwarts Champions!!"

"Or, we'll add another Warrior!!"

Karkaroff, the headmaster of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, roared angrily, almost pointing at Dumbledore's old face and insulting him.

“……”

"I agree with Principal Karkaroff's suggestion!"

The Lady Maxim was also holding her arm and looking coldly, obviously she was very disdainful and dissatisfied with Hogwarts's blatant cheating behavior as the host!

Besides, she was in a bad mood right now, because Hogwarts had lost one of their precious Pegasi? Although, Dumbledore promised to pay compensation, but the loss of a Pegasus was not something she was willing to bear.

"Hah!"

(*^▽^*)

"Yes! You canceled his name because he was so bad that he could even be selected, so someone must have cheated! ”

?? （?? `▽????) ╭??

Little Anne didn't give face at all, and pointed directly at the Harry Potter who was being pointed at at the Gryffindor table in the distance.

（…… ）

(●￣(??) ￣●)

“……”

However, Dumbledore didn't say anything, he just glared at a little girl angrily.

Because as far as he knows, and if he didn't guess wrong, today's result must have something to do with a certain little girl who is clamoring now! At least, he thinks Miss Granger's name was added by the other party?

However, now was not the time to pursue that kind of thing, Dumbledore planned to temporarily stop the anger of the two headmasters of Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, after all, it was useless to get angry or do anything else now, and they had to negotiate a result as soon as possible.

"I'm sorry, I know, you won't believe me even if I say I don't know anything about it......"

"But, Headmaster Karkaroff, and Madame Maxim, you need to know ...... The magic of the Goblet of Fire is ancient and contractual, and once a champion has been chosen, it must be contested and can no longer be reversed or backed down......"

"Otherwise, it will definitely have extremely serious consequences!"

Dumbledore thought about it and decided not to let out this old face, anyway, the election was all chosen, although some of them were beyond his expectations, but what else could he do now?

"And then there'......"

"Come to think of it, your students are seventeen-year-old senior wizards, and we at Hogwarts have two fourteen-year-old fourth-year students......"

"If that's the case, you shouldn't be too much of a loss, right?"

While motioning for Barty Crouch of the Ministry of Magic to comfort the two, Dumbledore racked his brains to persuade them in a language that might be acceptable to the two headmasters.

In any case, as long as the contract of the Goblet of Fire remains, the Triwizard Tournament must continue, otherwise, Dumbledore believes that the result of the breach of the contract will be something that everyone present, including the warriors, is unwilling to bear!

‘......’

‘......’

Karkaroff and Maxim obviously have some knowledge of the Goblet of Fire, after all, they are the head of the school! Therefore, although they didn't know what despicable and shameless means a certain Dumbledore used to interfere with the selection of the Goblet of Fire, they knew the seriousness of the matter, and after glancing at each other, they could only snort in unison and turn their heads away.

Obviously, they had to compromise for the sake of their respective students due to the effects of some extremely old magical contracts...... Otherwise, what else could they do? Could it be that they would just take their respective students back, and then let the power of the Goblet of Fire Pact cause all kinds of unknown harm to the students?
