Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 140 Quidditch Training

Ravenclaw won the Quidditch match against Hufflepuff. This news not only made the Ravenclaw students happy, but the Gryffindor students were equally happy, because it showed that Gryffindor Lanffindor has not yet been eliminated early, and there is still hope for the Champions League.

As Harry said, Wood, the captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, came to persuade Nydia several times to join the Quidditch team. Although Nydia refused, he still told Nettie Ya, because the teammates of the Gryffindor team have always been in a state of just seven people, and they do not have any substitute teammates, so once any player is injured, they will not be able to play, so the team needs to train some substitute players , he hoped that Nidia would not refuse prematurely and could try to come over for a few trainings before making a decision.

"You can buy yourself a broomstick first. Whether you join the team or not, you should have your own broomstick." Michelle suggested excitedly, "How about buying a Nimbus 2001 like Draco's? Sample"

"No, Nimbus 2001 belongs to the Slytherin team, and Nydia is joining the Gryffindor team." Ron on the side retorted, because the Slytherin team all uses Nimbus 2001, resulting in Ron also hated Nimbus 2001 by the way.

"Otherwise, why don't you ask Nydia to buy a Firebolt?" Michelle returned unhappily.

"Nitya can buy a Seven Sweeper, or the Nimbus 2000 like Harry had before." Ron looked at Harry, "By the way, you also need to buy a new broom. What are you going to buy?"

"Actually, Wood also suggested that I buy a Nimbus 2001, but to be honest, since all members of the Slytherin team have used the Nimbus 2001, I also feel that this model of broom symbolizes Slytherin. So I will probably buy a Nimbus 2000. If the Nimbus 2000 is still available, I will be more willing to buy another Nimbus 2000.

"If this is the case, your team is lagging far behind in terms of overall speed." Michelle said.

"Winning the game doesn't just rely on speed. Ravenclaw and the others basically use sweeping seven stars, so they win the same way," Ron said.

"That's because the team they met was not Slytherin." Michelle argued.

"Why have you become a supporter of Slytherin now?" Ron frowned and looked at Michelle.

"No, I'm just talking about the matter. I've watched Slytherin's training, and they are very fast."

"But they still lost to Harry last year," Ron retorted.

"I said enough is enough for you two." Nidia stopped Michelle and Ron from arguing at the right time. "Aren't you talking about choosing a broomstick for me? Why are you getting further and further away?"

"So you agreed to Wood's proposal?" Harry looked at Nitya excitedly.

"I'm just participating in the training. I think I can give it a try." Wood repeatedly invited himself, and Nidia was too embarrassed to continue to refuse.

The owls flew into the restaurant on time, and a letter fell in front of Nidia. Nidia opened the letter and read it.

The letter was sent by Mr. Field, who told Nidia that he would invite the Malfoy family and Mrs. Zabini Olivia to the Field Manor to spend Christmas together this Christmas. Nidia could also invite some of her own Friends come.

Nydia raised her head and looked in the direction of the Slytherin House table. At this moment, Draco happened to be looking towards her. He also had a letter in his hand. It seemed that he had also received this. News. Although they did not ignore each other because of what happened that day, they were not as close as before.

After the potions class was over, Snape asked Nydia and Draco to go to Hagrid to help him bring over the fox eggs that the teachers had collected when they were clearing out the foxes some time ago. Although the foxes were recruiting people, Annoying, but its eggs are good potion ingredients.

"The Quidditch captain of our college invited me to join the team." On the way to Hagrid's hut, Nydia asked tentatively. She wanted to know Draco's attitude towards this matter.

"You can go if you want to. Team training is quite hard. You have to be mentally prepared." Draco was silent for a while, and then said in a neither salty nor cold tone.

"oh"

Nidia was a little disappointed. She was just going to train first, not officially joining the team. She had been thinking that if Draco would mind, she would still choose to refuse, but his flat tone made Nidia Ya felt that he didn't care about this matter, and he couldn't help but feel depressed.

On Thursday night, Nydia followed Harry to the training ground to participate in Quidditch training, but what she didn't expect was that her first training would be held in such a freezing rain. When she stood at the entrance of the castle and looked at the weather outside, Nidia felt a little regretful.

"Are you going to use this old antique to participate in training?" Draco suddenly appeared behind Nydia, holding his own Nimbus 2001 in his hand.

"I didn't have time to order my own broom, so I used the school's first." Nydia looked at Draco in surprise. She didn't know why Draco suddenly appeared here with his own broom.

"You can use this first." Draco put his Nimbus 2001 into Nydia's hand without any explanation, and then took the Meteor in her hand, "Flying in this kind of weather with this crap." , aren’t you afraid of falling?”

"But this is your broom." Did Draco come here specially to give him a broomstick?

"The training time of our two teams is different. It won't have any impact if you use mine for now until you have your own broomstick." Draco's tone was like an order, and he didn't tolerate Nydia at all. Somewhat rejected.

After finishing speaking, Draco turned and left without waiting for Nydia to express her gratitude. Nydia stood there and looked at Draco's leaving figure, feeling moved and sad at the same time.

"Your broom is Nimbus 2001." Arriving at the training ground, Harry looked at the broom in Nydia's hand in surprise. He clearly remembered that Nydia went to the school broom shed with him to get the Meteor. How could this happen? It became Nimbus 2001.

"This is Draco's. He asked me to use his first." Nydia said a little embarrassed.

Fred and George whistled and cheered at Nydia, and then raised their eyebrows ambiguously, "It seems that we will definitely win against the Slytherin team in the future because their Seeker is not paying attention. It’s going to be on the Snitch but on our players.”

"Wood has such a good plan." George smiled and winked at Wood.

"Aliya, why don't you try Diggory? Maybe we can get the championship trophy directly in the future." Fred joked to another female Quidditch player.

"Okay, you two, please stop talking." Wood came out and interrupted the Weasley brothers. "Nitya is sorry that you encountered such weather when you first came to participate in training, but I think this is okay. Well, at least it will give you a better understanding of the hard work of being a Quidditch player."

Wood led Nydia to the other players and began to introduce her, "I think Harry and the Weasley brothers don't need my introduction. You are already familiar with them. These three girls are the chasers of our team. , Angelina, Aaliya and Katie. They are all very good chasers." Then Wood turned to introduce Nitya to others, "I think you have seen or heard about it some time ago. After Nidia’s wonderful performance on the training ground, I think Nidia is very suitable to be a chaser. She is small in size and can even be used as a substitute for the seeker.”

"Seeker" Nidia looked at Wood in surprise. She had never thought of becoming a seeker.

"Of course, this is when Harry is unable to play. You can also try to practice and see. I think you can try both positions." Wood said, his idea is to serve as a substitute. If he can substitute multiple players at the same time, A seat is perfect, but the positions of batsman and goalkeeper are obviously not suitable for Nitya.

The training started soon. Wood divided the four girls into two groups to compete. Nidia and Angelina were in one group. Angelina was very powerful. She was decisive and straightforward in interception, and she was also very good in passing and throwing. In terms of accuracy, Nidia is much inferior in comparison. Although she can fly quickly and dodge the opponent's interception, she becomes hesitant when she needs to actively intercept the opponent's ball. She has never been like this. She had had a physical collision with someone, and she was worried that she didn't have the right balance.

"Hey girl, this is a competition, not a dance party. There is no need to talk about so many etiquettes. Your opponent will not give the ball to you."

Now Nidia understands why Wood put Angelina in the same group. She is a good teacher. She can always see where Nidia's problems are and point them out.

"Don't worry, we are not made of tofu."

"Yes, come here and let us see what you are capable of."

Aaliyah and Katie also encouraged Nitya not to be too restrained and to play freely. Slowly, Nidia found her form. Although the heavy rain made the weather very cold, Nidia's heart became hot during the training. For the first time, she felt the desire to compete with others to win or lose. desire.

"Well done girls." After the training, Wood gathered the players together, "Very good Nydia, it's good to have a tie with Alia and Katie in the first training."

"This is all thanks to Angelina, I have held her back a lot." Nitya was very happy in training, but she could also see that everyone was actually somewhat accommodating to her. It was not so much a competition. It would be better to say that others were tutoring her in disguise.

"No need to be modest, you have done a great job." Angelina patted Nitya on the shoulder.

"Nydia, I will ask the Weasley brothers to join in the next training. You have to learn to chase the Quaffle and avoid the Bludgers at the same time." Wood said to Nidia. "Okay, everyone performed very well in today's training. Let's go back and have a good rest."

"How are you feeling?" Harry asked Nydia on the way back to the broomstick shed.

"It's not bad. Participating yourself is much harder than just watching the game, and it's also much more interesting." Nydia said to Harry excitedly.

"As long as you like it, when you actually get on the field, you will find that it feels better, although it will also be very nervous." Harry said happily.

"Even if I come in, I will only be a substitute. I think it's good to be able to train with you." Nidia couldn't help but tighten the Nimbus 2001 in her hand. In her heart, she was actually worried about going on the field to meet Della. Kobe was still a little resistant.
