The award ceremony for the Triwizard Tournament winner was grand.

On behalf of the Ministry of Magic, Connelly Fudge handed the Triumph Cup to Kyle, along with a full 1,000 Galleons in prize money.

Ms. Maxim and Fleur clapped at the side...... Fleur's expression looked a little regretful.

After all, before she set off, the game had already been announced, and it could be said that there was no sense of experience.

But that's the way the game is, who made her points low, and Ms. Maxim just said that Kyle destroyed half of the labyrinth with a spell...... The path paved by the flames has not yet been extinguished, and you can see it clearly as long as you stand in the audience.

This also proves from the side that Kyle's strength is indeed very strong, at least she will definitely not be able to do it.

It was getting dark, and the award ceremony ended in a lively atmosphere.

The only ones who couldn't laugh were probably Durmstrang students.

Their warrior Krum, who had just entered the labyrinth, fell into a coma and was carried out, and the headmaster, Karkaroff, was gone.

The two key figures were absent, and they felt like they were standing here like outsiders, completely unsure whether to follow along and celebrate, or go back to the ship first.

After the awards, Dumbledore quietly came to Kyle's side and whispered:

"Come with me, I might have something to ask you."

"Okay." Kyle nodded, subconsciously glancing at Dumbledore's left hand.

"Oh, don't worry." Dumbledore seemed to see what he was thinking, stretched out his left hand and said, "It's just a little burned by the fire, and it will heal soon." ”

The black scorch marks on it were gone, leaving only a shallow scar.

"Of course, it is impossible to have no price at all." Dumbledore laughed and said, "And Tom wasn't much better, I didn't suffer." ”

He blinked, exchanged a few words with the people around him, and then returned to the castle.

Kyle follows him as well.

At this time, the students had not yet returned, and there was silence in the castle, and the two of them went down the stairs all the way to the principal's office on the eighth floor.

Harry had been waiting here in advance, along with Professor McGonagall, Professor Moody, Snape, and Sirius.

So, for the next moment, Harry repeated the whole process of being taken away, and what he had experienced while he was on the top of the mountain.

"That guy, Barty Crouch Jr., is really shrewd." Professor Moody couldn't help but say, "I think he probably drank the Polyjuice decoction when we both left the castle."

Filch ...... I had seen the Squib before dinner began, and he hadn't drunk the Polyjuice Decoction at the time. ”

"Professor, can you see through this potion?" Harry asked curiously.

"I can't see through it." "But it's not that much trouble to tell the difference between a Squib and a normal wizard." ”

Harry suddenly thought about it, something was wrong when Filch came to him, and he had seen the wand in his pocket.

But at that time, he was so preoccupied with the third game that he didn't think much about it, and then he was knocked unconscious and taken away.

"Wait!" Harry suddenly thought of something, "If the person who took me was Barty Crouch Jr., then where is Filch really?" ”

There was silence in the principal's office.

Both Dumbledore and the professors seemed to have forgotten about the castle janitor.

"Minerva......" said Dumbledore, "could you please come to Filch's office, and by the way, Madam Pomfrey, I think Filch should need some treatment?" ”

"I see." Professor McGonagall nodded, then walked briskly out of the room.

"Let's move on." Dumbledore looked at Harry again, "You just said that Kyle fought off those Death Eaters?" ”

"Yes, Professor." Harry's voice was agitated, "It's a dragon of flames that scared off all the Death Eaters as soon as it appeared. ”

All eyes subconsciously turned to Kyle, some of whom thought it was the same spell he had used in the game, but Professor Moody thought of another possibility.

It's not just a fire spell that can condense into a fire dragon...... Just like the spell Kyle used in the labyrinth, although powerful, it is only the most basic form.

Only the fire can easily condense into the appearance of magical beasts.

Although the spell was true to the dark arts, the former Auror didn't say anything out of place.

He is now retired from the Auror office, and now he is just a professor at Hogwarts, and even Dumbledore has not said anything, so naturally he will not talk much.

Just act like you don't know anything.

"Is that how Dumbledore passed?" He asked.

Counting the time, from the time Kyle was sent by the Portkey to the time he cast the Fire Charm to protect himself, it was almost exactly the time Dumbledore left.

"Sort of." Harry hesitated, "There was a sudden fog, and it was so thick that I couldn't see anything in it, and then I heard the headmaster's voice. ”

"Fog?" Professor Moody frowned, "Was it there in the first place?" ”

"No, it's this." At this point, Kyle suddenly said, and he took out an object and placed it in front of everyone.

It was a crystal blue bead, smaller than the Golden Snitch, and a cloud of white smoke could be seen slowly swimming inside.

It looks like a shrunken crystal ball.

"What is this?" Sirius asked curiously.

"Mist Gems." Kyle said, "Just crush the beads and the white smoke will keep coming out, and the effect is exactly what Harry said." ”

"That's a nice thing." Professor Moody's MONOCULUS stared motionless at the Mist Gem, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be Vagado's thing."

"I used something similar when I was hunting down a foreign dark wizard before, he threw a rock and hundreds of stinging caterpillars flew out of it."

"Almost." Kyle said, "I bought it from Hogsmeade, and the owner said it came from an ancient tribe in the Moon Mountains.

"Because it works so well, I always carry it with me."

"You're doing the right thing." Professor Moody said sincerely: "In the case of a huge disparity in strength, it is the most correct way to limit the opponent's movement in this way, so as to buy rescue time...... I guess that's why you bought it. ”

Kyle didn't speak, acquiescing.

"Are you really not thinking about becoming an Auror after graduation?" Professor Moody couldn't help but say.

Although he was not optimistic about the current Ministry of Magic, when he really met the right person, the first thing he thought of was the Auror office.

"I can call the shots, skip all your tests, and you can even become a named Auror of the Ministry of Magic by the time you are in the sixth year, without the need to participate in missions, and you can still get a good salary every month."

"How much?"

"Fifty Galleons."

"It's a little bit." Kyle muttered.

"Not a lot." "Don't forget that you don't have to do anything, and the money is given away until you graduate," Professor Moody said. ”

Kyle was a little moved, thought for a moment and asked, "Then if I want to do another job after graduation, can I quit?" ”

Professor Moody was stunned for a moment, then shook his head repeatedly, "Of course not. ”

Good guy, quit after two years' salary for nothing...... What could a Hufflepuff say?
