Chapter 231: The Order of the Merlin Regiment, Second Degree

The sudden arrival of the guest immediately caught everyone's attention.

The cheers and celebrations were much quieter, and the young wizards turned their heads to look at the men, but they only recognized the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, and the others were not at all impressed.

Even Dumbledore in the guest of honor was slightly stunned.

But he soon caught up:

"Oh, Dug, and Connelly, Pegasus......"

Dumbledore greeted them one by one, "It's a pleasure to see you at Hogwarts, I always thought you would be there tomorrow." ”

"It was supposed to be tomorrow's ......"

Dug McFel, the old wizard at the front, said with a smile, "But Nicol thinks this is a rare opportunity, and it shouldn't be known to just a few people."

And I personally think so, after all, there has never been a young wizard who was awarded the Order of the Order of Merlin at the age of twelve. That's a remarkable achievement, and the kid advanced the minimum age record by eight years. ”

"It's really something to celebrate." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"So we picked up a little bit and finally arrived just in time for the Hogwarts holidays."

McCail's smile, "Complete the Honors Ceremony with everyone at Hogwarts...... It must have meant a lot to that kid. ”

After hearing his words, the entire auditorium fell silent instantly, and everyone's eyes widened, they had a guess in their hearts, but they couldn't believe it.

A twelve-year-old wizard was awarded the Order of the Order of the Order of the Merlin...... How is this possible!

Not far away, at the Gryffindor table, Fred gave George a stiff look.

"Twelve years old, I should be in the second grade, right?"

“…… It could also be a first grade. ”

George's expression was also a little wrong: "Maybe it's Harry, everyone knows that he defeated the mystery man and won a medal of the Order of the Order of Merlin." ”

"But...... Harry's birthday was in July, which meant he was still eleven years old. ”

At this point, George was speechless.

A name popped into his mind, believing that Fred should be the same.

"No......"

"Could it be ......?"

The two looked at each other, both in the direction of the Hufflepuff table.

And at this time, McFeil, who came from afar, did not continue to greet him:

"Let's get started, Dumbledore, the youngest member of the Order of Merlin...... I can't wait, and don't keep the kids waiting. ”

"Of course it's fine, but are you still presiding over the ceremony this time?"

McCail's shook his head, "Of course not, we have a better fit." ”

Hearing his words, Cornelius Fudge subconsciously cleared his throat and took a small step forward, as if he wanted to take the job.

But as if he hadn't seen him, McFil continued, "Since it's at Hogwarts, it must be you, Albus."

And this is your job as the chief magician of the Wizengamot, and you can't keep pushing it to me...... Remember, I've been retired for a long time. ”

"But you're better than I am, Duge."

Dumbledore smiled, then turned and walked to the guest of honor.

"Today is such a happy day." He exclaimed, "Let me introduce you to these distinguished guests......

"Dug McFiel, a wise and calm man, led the Ministry of Magic through a pleasantly quiet period during that time of marked upheaval in the Muggle Council."

McCafee waved hello to everyone.

There was a round of applause in the auditorium.

"I know him." Hermione said with some excitement, "Remember, we saw it when we were looking for Nicolame.

Dug McFel, who served as Minister of Magic in 1858, was also one of the most trusted ministers. ”

"1858?!"

Ron said incredulously, "Then is he more than a hundred years old now!" ”

"133 years old." Harry whispered.

"You two ......," Hermione frowned, "I think at least 133 years old, he can't be the Minister of Magic since birth." ”

"He's ...... alive," Ron muttered quietly, "I mean, he doesn't have an elixir, does he?" ”

On stage, Dumbledore had already begun to introduce the next one.

"And our Minister of Magic, Mr. Cornelius Fudge......"

Fudge took off his hat and smiled kindly.

There was another round of applause from below, especially from the Slytherin side, who were clapping their hands very excitedly.

"And Pegasos Sassia, director of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, a revered master of potions......"

"Newt Smith Camander, a renowned magizoologist and author of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them......"

While Dumbledore introduced the men on stage, Kyle's eyes were always on the last two.

It was his parents, Chris and Diana.

It's just that Diana wears a wide black hood and hides herself very tightly.

And for some reason, her presence is also very low, and if it weren't for the fact that she was standing next to Chris, Kyle probably wouldn't have noticed her.

It felt like a Muggle banishment spell......

Just thinking about it, Kyle suddenly felt a strange feeling in his palm, and he subconsciously looked down, only to realize that there were a few more small words on his hand......

"Don't mess around, mission!"

The corners of Kyle's mouth twitched.

Obviously, his mother probably came on leave during the mission, but because of the peculiarities of the Department of Mysteries, she had to hide herself.

After being reminded, Kyle nodded lightly and stopped looking at them again.

Just know that your parents are there.

It was such an important thing, and without their involvement, Kyle would have felt that something was missing.

"Kyle, why are you smiling so happily?"

Cedric gave him a puzzled look, and then seemed to think of something:

"Wait. Could it be this Order of the Order of Merlin...... It's for you. ”

Like George, he thought it was for Harry Potter.

Kyle spread his hands and didn't speak, but Cedric's expression grew more and more surprised.

And there was a little sluggishness in the surprise.

Soon, Dumbledore had finished introducing the last man.

The inventor of the wolf poison potion, Damocles Belby.

Except for Fudge, the other four were all recipients of the Order of the Order of the Order of Merlin, some of them were of the first and second ranks.

As for Chris and Diana...... They had already found a random spot near the door and sat down.

Dumbledore seemed to be aware of something, so he didn't mention the two of them.

"You may find it strange why these long-established wizards came to Hogwarts......"

Dumbledore stood in front of the guest of honor and said in a clear and loud voice, "It's simple...... They came here to confer a student on the Order of the Order of the Order of the Merlin. ”

After receiving Dumbledore's affirmative reply, there was an uproar from below.

Everyone is guessing who it is...... And the most mentioned is Harry Potter.

"Harry, is that really you?" Ron said excitedly.

"Impossible." Harry shook his head, "I've never heard of it, and I'm not even twelve, you know. ”

"I know, but who else but you...... Don't forget that you defeated the Mystic Man and saved the wizarding world. Ron said, "Maybe they just misremembered your age." ”

Harry frowned, he still didn't think it was right.

If it was really because of Voldemort, why did he delay the award until today, and why did he live in the Dursley house for eleven years.

If Hagrid hadn't taken him away from the seaside hut, he might not have known there was still Hogwarts.

The auditorium was chaotic and noisy...... Everyone is debating who this winner is.

But soon, Dumbledore told them the answer.

"Kyle Chopper!" He shouted.

The auditorium fell silent as if the pause button had been pressed, and they subconsciously looked at the Hufflepuff table, and Kyle standing there.

"Come here, kid." Dumbledore said mildly.

Kyle walked over.

Dumbledore said solemnly, "At St. Mungo's Hospital for the Wounded and Wounded, you successfully subdued a runaway werewolf and saved the lives of an entire floor and 57 injured patients.

In recognition of your bravery and courage at that time, I, Albus Dumbledore, on behalf of the International Confederation of Wizards, the Order of Merlin, the Wizengamot, and the wizarding community, award you the Order of Merlin, Second Class! ”
