The long-awaited day has arrived.

From this morning onwards, the students had no mind to go to class, and the ornate decorations of the castle took away the last of their self-control.

At six o'clock in the evening, the students of Hogwarts, under the command of their respective house heads, finally took up their positions on the grass in front of the castle.

The weather was a little cold, and many young wizards rubbed their frozen red ears, stamped their feet, and waited excitedly for the guests.

"They're coming!"

Without Dumbledore's reminder, everyone saw a house-sized powder blue carriage flying from the night sky. A carriage drawn by an elephant-sized rune grazed the treetops and came to a steady halt on the ground.

Beauxbatons students jumped out of the carriage and lowered the stairs, and the tall Ms. Maxim stepped out of the carriage gracefully.

She and Dumbledore exchanged pleasantries, and Kano craned his neck to see Fleur step out of the carriage with a dozen of Beauxbatons' students.

Many of the students wore only silk robes, shivering from the cold.

Fleur had been to England a few times, so she knew the climate here, and she wore a heavy cloak and a scarf on her face.

Little Gabrielle was dressed exactly like Fleur except for the lack of a veil, and she jumped up and said hello to Kano who was standing in the line, and Fleur smiled and patted her head to make her feel at ease.

Then she gave a kiss to Kano herself, not caring at all about the eyes of others.

Ms. Maxim is a serious person and is usually very strict with her students. But she also knew about the relationship between Kano and Fleur, so she had to ignore it.

"Let's go warm up first, and tell that Hagrid that my rune horse only drinks pure malt whiskey." She said to Dumbledore.

Then she led her trembling students into the castle first.

This was also expected by Dumbledore, Durmstran's headmaster Karkaroff was a former Death Eater, and Lady Maxim looked down on him in her heart, so how could she welcome him with a cold wind blowing here?

It's also interesting to talk about Karkaroff's experience, he was caught by Moody's back then, and through a judicial deal with Crouch Sr., he identified many Death Eaters, and only then escaped prison.

Later, he left England and climbed to the throne of principal in Durmstrang, which can be regarded as the pinnacle of his life.

I don't know if he will be scared to pee his pants when he sees Moody's blue magic eye.

"What's that sound?" Harry suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the Black Lake.

"Flush toilet." Kano replied simply, and the few young wizards from ordinary people around him all laughed.

A black sailboat rose from the water and floated on the water. After the anchor was lowered, a plank that had been used as a gangway was placed on the shore.

Igor. Karkaroff stepped off the boat with a group of tiger-headed schoolboys and girls, visibly shuddered when he saw Moody standing in the shadows, but he still stood in front of Dumbledore with a stiff movement.

The heavily cloaked Durmstrang students contrasted sharply with the previous Beauxbatons students, and one of them, a dark, skinny young man, caused a stir among the Hogwarts students.

"Krum, that's Krum, he's still a student!" Ron whispered to the side, "I can't believe we've seen him every day this school year!" ”

Kano plucked out his ears and watched as Karkaroff pretended to talk to Dumbledore enthusiastically, carefully turning his neck to avoid making eye contact with Moody, looking like a clockwork doll.

All the guests had arrived, and the students returned to the castle in a procession.

Durmstrang only accepted pure-blood wizards, and naturally sat at the long table at Slytherin House, many of whom could talk about relatives.

Fleur and Gabrielle sat at the Gryffindor table with the Beauxbatons students, and Kano sat directly in the empty seat next to Fleur.

"This is Senior Black's girlfriend?"

This is a junior Hogwarts student, and Fleur was not enrolled when she went to pick up the station to declare sovereignty.

"Is it this bastard who cheated our school girl?"

This is the boys of Beauxbatons, who suddenly learned that Fleur has a boyfriend a few years ago, but no one has ever met Kano himself, and they have already saved up a belly.

The girls of Beauxbatons all looked at Kano with a twinkle in their eyes, and Fleur squinted her eyes sweeping them from beginning to end, but they didn't seem to be afraid.

"I seem to be being targeted by a lot of people." Kano chuckled.

"It's all small roles." Fleur squeezed out a few words from the corners of her mouth, her tone full of murderous intent, "I don't mind if you get to know the girls." ”

Kano touched his nose and coughed.

The three headmasters walked together into the castle gates, and the Beauxbatons students reflexively stood up, and they did not sit down until Madame Maxim was seated.

Dumbledore stood until everyone was seated before he spoke.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, ghosts, and dignitaries," said Dumbledore, smiling at the foreign students, "I welcome you to Hogwarts with great joy. I hope and believe that you will be comfortable and happy here. ”

"The tournament will officially begin at the end of the banquet. I now invite everyone to eat and drink as if they were in your own home! ”

The audience applauded thunderously, and the students began to destroy the food that appeared in front of them.

"I didn't expect Hogwarts to go out of their way to cook French food." Fleur took off her veil and scooped a spoonful of French soup for Gabrielle.

Kano noticed a few boys with straight eyes, snapped their fingers slightly, and a faint mental shock radiated out, waking them up.

Fleur smiled and served Kano a bowl of soup as well.

"Dumbledore wants you to feel at home."

"You really don't participate in the Triwizard Tournament?" Fleur asked with a smile.

"It doesn't make much sense to me." Kano replied in a whisper, "I'm busy..."

His fingers were clasped together in a slashing gesture.

Fleur nodded helplessly: "Okay, but if you don't compete, there may be some trouble in the past two days." ”

"What's the trouble?"

"Those boys." Fleur gestured with a hidden look in her eyes, "A few of the boys are still childlikes, and I always feel that if I defeat you, I will like them." ”

"Did you say a white-glove duel is coming?" Kano pursed his lips, trying to hold back a smile.

I've been at Hogwarts for so long, and finally someone is going to send a face to the door? It's really exciting.

Fleur smiled and gave Kano a blank look, and turned her head to continue caring for Gabrielle.

When the dinner was over, Dumbledore, with his cheeks flushed, stood up again.

"The time has finally come."

"Before the Triwizard Tournament begins, I'd like to introduce these two VIPs to me." He stretched out his hands to either side, "Ludo. Bagman, Director of the Department of Physical Education at the Ministry of Magic. ”

"Percy. Weasley, Assistant Director of the Department of International Cooperation at the Ministry of Magic. ”

"Together with the principals of our three schools, a total of five people will form the jury of this year's Triwizard Competition."

Dumbledore raised his voice, "Mr. Filch, please bring the box!" ”
