Hogwarts Kryptonian

"What did you promise to Astoria?! A horse that only drinks single malt whiskey! Did you burn it because you had too much money?"

"...Isn't that what she likes?"

"You can raise it if you like it? What's the use of raising it? I'm warning you, never mention this again! Otherwise I won't be able to spare you!"

Daphne glared at Lu Yunkai fiercely.

He also reached out and pinched him gently.

Lu Yunkai rubbed his arms with a nonchalant expression, and then glanced at Astoria who was following him.

The little girl with an aggrieved face lowered her head, her lips pouting as high as Hogwarts Castle.

"Okay, don't think about those unreliable things." Daphne glanced at her sister, "Yun Kai seems to be able to make some money now, but he can't bear to spend it like this. Don't torment him either."

"Oh." Although Astoria agreed, she was still obviously unhappy.

"Your dress is nice, it fits well." Seeing Astoria's appearance, Daphne was a little helpless and could only continue to smooth her hair.

"Didn't you choose this?" Astoria rolled her eyes at Daphne.

"..."

"Oops! Okay! I know! No more! Okay!!" Astoria waved her hand, "When I make money by myself in the future, I will support myself!"

"This is not just a matter of money, it is really useless..."

"I spend my own money however I like!"

"you……"

Daphne was furious.

Just at this time.

"Quiet!!"

Dumbledore's voice sounded.

The auditorium suddenly became quiet.

Sitting in the auditorium, the students who were originally discussing excitedly fell silent, and everyone looked at Dumbledore.

In the auditorium, which originally had only four long tables all year round, six long tables were set up today for the first time. The two empty tables were naturally used to welcome and wait for guests.

In the afternoon, the two schools that came to participate in the Triwizard Tournament had arrived at Hogwarts.

Although not many people saw Beauxbatons' carriage parked near the Forbidden Forest when it arrived, there were many witnesses when the large ship full of Durmstrang students emerged from the bottom of Hogwarts Lake. or's.

The Triwizard Tournament, which had been hotly discussed since the beginning of the school year and had somewhat cooled down due to the passage of two months, was once again ignited.

Now every Hogwarts student has an excited smile on his face and is looking forward to it.

"Some of you have met our guests this afternoon and even had some cordial conversations."

Dumbledore looked at his students after they calmed down.

Then his eyes glanced at Lu Yunkai.

Lu Yunkai was a little embarrassed. He knew that Dumbledore was talking about him.

At that time, he was so happy because of Astoria's change of views on the bloodline issue that he directly dragged her and ran to find Hagrid.

He bumped into Dumbledore who was going to greet Madame Maxime.

Afterwards, he asked Hagrid what he needed to pay attention to when raising the magic rune horse. Hagrid didn’t know much about it, so he asked Mrs. Maxim, and then she gave him a weird look...

Well, he admitted that he had not seen the world at that time and was a bit lost in Hogwarts.

Otherwise, with his stingy temperament, he should have found a reason to give up Astoria's idea of ​​raising a magical talisman (and Lu Yunkai probably wouldn't have been able to do it if it hadn't been for being so angry at Mrs. Maxim. Tolia would not insist on raising a horse that is unlikely to be used as a mount).

"But I still want to introduce our guests to you very solemnly. I hope that in the rest of this year, you can coexist peacefully with them and become friends." Dumbledore turned his eyes away and continued: "First of all, Invite our friends from the south, students from Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and their principal, Madame Maxime.”

With that said, Dumbledore gestured to Filch, who was wearing a weird tuxedo that didn't look like him.

Filch hurriedly ran out of the auditorium, and after a while, a group of people walked into the auditorium.

The whole place fell silent.

Only sparse applause sounded.

It's not that the students at Hogwarts don't know how to be polite, but this group of guests is really annoying.

They were all witch apprentices wearing slim-cut magic robes made of exquisite silk!

Almost all the male students in Hogwarts, including Lu Yunkai, were stunned.

This group of pretty French girls were all smiling. As they walked into the auditorium, they saluted and said hello to the Hogwarts students around them. They didn't seem to mind at all that there was no welcome applause when they entered. .

Or maybe they enjoy this situation more when others look at them and they look stupid?

Under the leadership of Filch, the Beauxbatons students came to the long table prepared for them in the auditorium. However, although they took their seats one after another, no one sat down. They just stood quietly and smiled. With.

Then their principal walked into the auditorium.

"Wow!! What a big woman!"

Almost everyone gave the same exclamation that Lu Yunkai and Astoria had after seeing Mrs. Maxim.

Lu Yunkai, who had already met the principal once, noticed that all the Beauxbatons students were applauding and welcoming in unison.

It seems that this school is very strictly managed!

Amidst the exclamations and applause of the Hogwarts students, Mrs. Maxim came to Dumbledore, who was half as short as her. The two hugged each other, and then whispered a few words before she came to the chairman She sat down in her seat behind the stage.

She and Dumbledore had already greeted each other in the afternoon, and there really was nothing that needed to be said in the hall.

Then.

"Next, are our friends from the north. The students of Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and their principal, Igor Karkaroff!" Dumbledore introduced again.

This time, the atmosphere was completely different from just now.

When the door of the auditorium opened again, all the men walked in.

All of them were wearing thick leather robes, giving people the impression that they came from a very cold place.

But according to what Chris had told Lu Yunkai before about this school that was particularly tolerant of black magic, no one knew where this school was.

Compared with the shock when they saw the group of beautiful French girls, when they saw these strong northern men, the reaction of the students at Hogwarts was much more normal, and they clapped one after another to express their welcome.

But this normality quickly disappeared.

Then there was a loud exclamation in succession.

Because after a large number of Durmstrang students, the last student who walked into the auditorium was not only Lu Yunkai, but also many Hogwarts students knew him.

"Krum!! Viktor Krum!! Oh my god! He is Durmstrang's student??" Malfoy, who was sitting opposite Lu Yunkai, exclaimed.

"It seems so." Lu Yunkai nodded.

But...do you need to be so excited? ,

Just two months ago when school started, didn't you argue with the rest of the team for a long time, saying that he didn't deserve the title of the best Quidditch player of the generation?

After the exclamation caused by Krum, a tall and thin man with short white hair and a goatee on his chin also walked into the auditorium.

There was an exaggerated smile on his face.

Needless to say, Lu Yunkai also knew that this person must be Igor Karkarov.

Regarding this person, Lu Yunkai also heard a lot of introductions from Chris in the afternoon.

To put it simply, Lu Yunkai's impression of this person can be summarized in four words.

Former Death Eater.

Just for this reason, it is impossible for Lu Yunkai to like this guy.

However, this man didn't seem to realize (or didn't think about it) that the exclamations in the auditorium were not caused by his entry at all. He walked up to Dumbledore with a smile and gave Dumbledore a hug.

I also said a few words.

However, compared to the much more natural and simple exchange between Madame Maxime and Dumbledore just now, which was their second meeting in one day, Karkaroff's words obviously seemed particularly hypocritical (and of course, his voice was also loud) .

"Dear old man, dear Hogwarts!" Karkaroff said with a smile, "I haven't been back here for many years. It's great to be here, great!"

"If you like, the door of Hogwarts is always open to friends." Dumbledore also replied with a smile.

Of course, the voice is not quiet either...

The look of "I will accompany you when you act" made Lu Yunkai, who was frowning slightly because of Karkaroff, raise the corners of his mouth.

In fact, apart from the fact that Dumbledore always disliked me for some reason, this old man's temperament was really to his liking sometimes.

After Karkaroff took his seat, Dumbledore just said a few words, and then the welcome dinner, which was also the Halloween dinner, officially began.

This dinner can be said to be quite sumptuous.

Lu Yunkai saw some food on the table that he had never seen in the four years he had been at Hogwarts.

Like some kind of fish soup that smells weirdly fishy and richly creamy...

"This soup tastes so bad, how did you drink it?... Brace? Hello?? Are you okay? What's wrong?"

While Lu Yunkai was chewing on the grilled pork chop in his hand, he asked Blaise, who was sitting opposite him, raising his eyes and looking ahead, pouring spoonfuls of the fish soup that he found unpalatable into his mouth like a puppet.

Then he discovered that Blaise didn't react at all, as if someone had cast the Imperius Curse.

Only later did he realize that Blaise didn't seem to be the only one.

So were Goyle and Crabbe sitting next to him...

"what happened……"

Lu Yunkai turned his head and looked behind him.

Then, I was also stupid.

Behind him is the dining table prepared for guests Beauxbatons students at Hogwarts.

And Lu Yunkai saw a girl sitting opposite them at a glance.

She has waist-length silver hair and a pair of eyes as bright blue as the clearest sky, with silver light shining in them.

The smile on her face made Lu Yunkai seem to forget time all of a sudden.

Oh, there is more than one girl like this. Next to the girl who looks a little older, there is also a little girl who looks like she is not even eleven years old yet to enter school...

OMG! !

How could there be such a beautiful woman in this world! !

Although Lu Yunkai couldn't tell what was so beautiful about them, but...

It's beautiful! Unreasonable beauty! !

Why didn't he notice them when they entered the venue just now?

oh! right! When Beauxbatons students entered the venue just now, several people had their faces covered with veils. Lu Yunkai originally thought it was because they had injuries on their faces, or because they looked too fierce.

Okay, if beauty is a murderous weapon, then these two girls are definitely the most vicious people in the world...

"Lu Yunkai! What are you doing!!"

The stinging pain on his arm finally woke Lu Yunkai out of his daze.

"……nothing."

Lu Yunkai withdrew his gaze.

He noticed Daphne, whose face was red with anger.

Then there was a moment of fright.

What happened to you just now? Why does it look like he's possessed by an evil spirit?

Are those two girls that pretty? Not even if you think about it!

But why...

There must be a ghost! ?
