Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple
Chapter 316 Welcome Banquet
In Durmstrang's banquet hall, Dumbledore sat on the deputy seat on the right, and on the rostrum corresponding to him sat the current acting principal of Durmstrang - Idlov Kate. Sade.
Louis entered the banquet hall later. When he pushed open the heavy stone door, a quarter of the people were already seated in the hall.
There are not many people attending the summer school, and Durmstrang is almost isolated from the world. There are no entertainment facilities and venues around it. For students who are stuck in school for a semester, few people are willing to do so. Stay here.
"Let's come up here, Louis."
Unable to withstand the attention of everyone in the audience, Krum took Louis to the small round table on the side, which was the usual dining place of the Academy of Fools.
The other nine students from the Academy of Fools did not participate in this summer school, but Louis still saw a few familiar figures sitting there.
"Colin, Kona, Cho Chang, and... Astoria, you..."
"Louis it is indeed you!"
Colin Creevey seemed very excited. He cheered and hugged his old classmate whom he had not seen for a long time.
"Dumbledore said the fifth exchange student was already waiting for us, but I didn't expect it to be you."
"Do you know each other?"
Krum looked at them curiously. These British people were obviously not Durmstrang's students.
"They are our friends from Hogwarts, we came together to exchange them, everyone, the real Victor Krum."
"We know." Michael Corner stood up excitedly. He obviously didn't expect that he would be able to talk to the international Quidditch superstar.
"Hello."
Krum seemed a little polite, but this was the best he could do. After greeting the few people to sit down, he put on a serious fish-eye look.
Louis sat next to Astoria. He looked at the man in front of him with a haggard expression, and knew that the blood curse had begun to take effect slightly.
"Are you okay? Why did you follow me to Durmstrang?"
"I'm fine." Astoria smiled and shook her head, "Dumbledore told me that you were here, and most importantly, he said. There is something here that can cure the cause of my illness."
This sentence made Lewis's whole body perk up. Durmstrang actually had something to deal with the blood curse. Is this why Dumbledore asked him to come to Durmstrang?
Thinking of this, Louis couldn't help but look at Dumbledore with doubtful eyes, and the old man seemed to notice Louis' gaze, raised his head, and raised his glass to greet him.
"Hey, Louis, Astoria, what are you two young lovers talking about?"
On the other side, Qiu Zhang has already come forward. She is not interested in Colin and Michael's almost crazy star-chasing topic, and she is not even interested in Klum himself. (Although she loves Quidditch.)
So she intervened in the conversation, making the somewhat ambiguous atmosphere between Louis and Astoria quite awkward.
"Nothing, nothing, by the way, Qiu, why did you come to Durmstrang?"
"You know, I like running around outside." Qiu Zhang shrugged, "Of course, part of the reason is because of Cedric."
Cedric Diggory, Cho Chang's ex-boyfriend, they broke up before last year's Christmas party, but judging from her tone, the guy has always been obsessed with Cho.
"He came to see you again later?"
Louis doesn't have a good impression of Cedric, mostly because he helped Barty Crouch Jr. during Goblet of Fire.
"A few days before I came here, he sent an owl to write a letter asking me to get back together with him." Qiu Zhang felt a little irritable. "I ignored him and burned all the letters he sent. After that, I received a message from Dumbledore. The invitation is here.”
Qiu Zhang may not know what Cedric did during the Goblet of Fire, but the changes in this guy this year made her choose not to trust Cedric anymore.
Krum was sandwiched between Colin and Michael, but his eyes glanced in Louis' direction from time to time. Although Qiuzhang is not interested in this Bulgarian man, it does not mean that he will not be interested in her.
Cho Chang's seemingly quiet personality is exactly the same as Hermione's. With the blessing of Ravenclaw House, her intelligence is not inferior to Hermione Granger's.
Of course, he didn't watch for long. Acting Principal Durmstrang on the podium had already stood up from his position.
"Ladies and gentlemen." Katesade cleared her throat, "Today, at this important moment, we solemnly welcome Principal Dumbledore and his students from Hogwarts. They come to our school as distinguished guests. During this one-month exchange program, I believe you will experience a completely different magical life and feel relaxed and happy about it.”
Durmstrang's students all stood up. Although the number did not seem to be very large, the seemingly burly figures put a lot of pressure on Lewis and the others.
Some people were applauding, but most of them looked at them curiously and even eager to fight.
"It is our school's honor for Dumbledore, as the greatest wizard, to come to Durmstrang. This summer school class will launch courses shared by the four colleges. By then, Hogwarts students will participate in learning with you. Communicating.”
Louis heard something in the principal's words. Although this sentence did not sound wrong, the bellicose Durmstrang people would feel that if the people at Hogwarts studied with us, they could not compare with them in class. Performance, that is really worthy of Durmstrang.
Louis didn't pay attention to their looks. As long as the Durmstrang people didn't cause trouble themselves or provoke anyone around him, he would not take the initiative to cause friction with them.
As a burst of exciting music sounded, all Durmstrang people began to sing a variety of songs in their own national languages. It was obvious that this was Durmstrang's school song. But it sounded to Louis that only one sentence came to his mind:
"Hey comrade, do you know where Leningrad and Stalingrad are? I can't find it on the map. No more, no more, we have failed. The white bandits and capitalists are once again on our heads . If you want to follow the red star, go to the east, across the Dnieper, over the Ural Mountains, where the fire still burns."
After the song ended, the banquet officially began. The Nordic food was not that good, even worse than Hogwarts, but the table was filled with large plates of meat and some seafood. Sections of German bratwurst and large glasses of beer reflect the boldness of its food culture.
Krum chatted happily with everyone at Hogwarts. After a while, the Bulgarian international superstar had already mingled with several Hogwarts students.
