Early in the morning of October 2, the latest news published in the Daily Prophet sparked a lively discussion among everyone.

"The Minister of Magic, Amelia Susan Bones, gives her inaugural speech: Resolutely fight against all dark forces!" 》

Scott read the report quickly.

Ms. Burns' inaugural speech could almost be seen as a declaration of war against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

This lady continued her unforgiving attitude as the head of the Law Enforcement Department, and strongly expressed her determination to resolutely fight against the dark forces.

"What do you think?" Eddie asked, turning his head.

"It's certainly good, I mean, Secretary Burns' attitude gives people hope," Milton said. As you know, many wizards have been shrouded in despair since the mysterious man appeared publicly. ”

Luna looked at Ms. Burns with a serious face in the photo.

"Oh, she's tough." "Maybe she should pay more attention to her own safety," she said. ”

"Don't say that, is the mysterious man going to lead the Death Eaters in an attack on the Ministry of Magic?" Kayla said with a white face.

"What can't they do?" Her boyfriend, Dylan, frowned, "And, ...... The mystery man is too powerful for anyone to stop him unless it's Dumbledore. ”

"So our new minister is in a dangerous position right now, especially since she has publicly announced that she will send the Aurors to the homes of the wanted Death Eaters to capture them, which will undoubtedly anger the group. ”

"She could have imagined all of them, but she did it anyway." Eddie also stared at the photo in the newspaper and his eyes flashed, "I think she's an amazing minister." ”

Kayla said, "But is that really good?" If, I mean, if something happens to her, the wizards who are afraid of the mysterious person will become even more desperate. ”

At this point, her face became even paler.

"I heard my dad say that more than a decade ago, those Death Eaters did all kinds of evil, causing many tragic deaths and countless families being torn apart. Anyway, I can't imagine what those guys would do if they were angry. ”

Obviously, she was somewhat pessimistic.

Not only was Minister Burns feared revenge by Voldemort and the Death Eaters, but he was even more afraid that his family would be implicated in the war.

Dylan hurriedly whispered to comfort her.

"Scott, what do you think?" Milton asked Scott.

Scott didn't say anything just now.

In his opinion, Ms. Burns would not have said those words in the heat of her head.

While these declarations can be useful in upholding the authority of the Ministry of Magic, they can be counterproductive if they fail.

Perhaps, Dumbledore and his Order of the Phoenix will also be involved, or may have had a plan in place for a long time.

But in the face of Milton's question, he simply said: "Either way, there is nothing we students can do but trust the new minister." ”

After breakfast, Scott asked Luna alone, "Luna, did you see anything when you said that Ms. Burns should be aware of her own safety?" ”

Luna shook her head.

"I just think she should be safe."

"Intuition?" Scott muttered.

He knew that Luna's instincts had always been accurate.

Could it be that something is really going to happen to the new minister?

"What's wrong?" Luna asked.

Scott shook his head, "I trust your instincts, but this kind of thing ...... Even if we go to remind it, it is useless. Ms. Burns was able to say those words, which proved that she had come to her senses. ”

"I think she's the one who will move forward," Luna said. ”

This concludes the discussion on ministers.

They started talking about Triwizard Tournament.

"Unfortunately, I couldn't get together 5 testimonials." Luna said regretfully.

But she soon laughed again.

"But I'm sure you'll get the most applause, Scott."

"Thank you."

After saying goodbye to her, Scott went to the Room of Requirement again and studied all day.

In the evening, after leaving the Room of Requirement, Scott went to Professor Flitwick's office to borrow [Ravenclaw's Crown], and finally mastered the set of magic circuits.

On the way back to the dormitory, Scott was still reviewing the composition of the entire set of magic circuits in his mind.

With the help of Tutor Ravenclaw, the set of magic circuits that were originally named [Ice Ocean Starry Sky Fantasy] has been removed from the parts that make up the specific illusion and has become [Blank Illusion].

That is, the frame.

As long as Scott fills it with the ancient magic scripts he has mastered, and can maintain the structural stability of the magic scripts, he can create a new illusion.

But it's a lot of difficulty, and it takes a lot of trying, and even some luck.

Anyway, in order to get his idea, Scott is ready to borrow [Ravenclaw's Crown] again, and the elixir is also being considered.

In the days that followed, Scott spent most of his time creating illusions, and went to Professor Flitwick's office to borrow the crown more often.

Fortunately, Professor Flitwick knew that his experiment was to prepare for the Triwizard Tournament, so he gave him the green light.

October 15th, another Saturday.

That night, Scott arrives in the auditorium, only to find the professors sitting in the faculty seats at the front of the auditorium.

He walked over to the Ravenclaw table and asked his roommate, "What happened?" ”

"Dumbledore wants a list of 25 men." Eddie said, "Didn't you look at the bulletin board in front of the auditorium?" ”

Scott shook his head.

He went to the Room of Requirement early in the morning, then

The bulletin board was still empty, and he ignored it when he came in just now.

At that moment, Dumbledore, who was sitting in the center of the teacher's seat, stood up and said to everyone, "The 25 students who will represent Hogwarts in Beauxbatons for the Triwizard Tournament have all been chosen, and in that order, they areβ€”"

"Cedric Diggory."

"Scott."

"Terrance Higgs."

"Angelina Johnson."

……

As the names were pronounced one by one, applause rang out at the long tables of the four academies.

When Angelina's name was pronounced, Scott deliberately turned his head to look at it.

Sure enough, Fred's expression looked a little silly.

That guy must have regretted giving up too soon, Scott scolded.

"Ethan Cooper."

"Caccini Strozzi."

"Roger Davis."

The last name appeared, and Scott looked at Roger in surprise.

"You guy, you haven't said it!"

Eddie's eyes widened, "Roger! You've made it! But it has been hiding from us! ”

"Congratulations, Roger." Milton said.

Other students also began to congratulate them.

"Oh, it's nothing." Roger shook his head handsomely, "It is said that Beauxbatons has a lot of beautiful girls, and I can't miss it anyway." ”

Obviously, because Hogwarts has no purpose, Roger, who has been in a gap for too long, is about to start exuding charm again.

Scott was secretly amused.

He had some expectations that Roger, who was a lover expert, wouldn't capsize on Beauxbatons' half-breed girl.
