Hogwarts: My name is the Unforgivable Curse
Chapter 284 Confusion and Potential Crisis
"But before you start submitting your names, I need to give a special reminder to our Durmstrang classmates,"
Karkaroff glanced at the student teams at Hogwarts and Beauxbatons, then at the Goblet of Fire, and then continued: "Although this competition has guaranteed absolute safety, it is also not a child's play. Do not participate rashly. This is not only a matter of the school's reputation, but also directly related to your personal safety - once a warrior is selected by the Goblet of Fire, he must persist in the game to the end, no matter what happens in the middle."
"The guests coming from Hogwarts and Beauxbatons this time are all carefully selected geniuses, the most elite students in each of their schools..."
Many students at Hogwarts and Beauxbatons couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
"...They are already prepared to become warriors and bear the honor and risks brought by the game at the same time. And our students, that is, you - some of you are still young and have too little experience, no matter what Neither knowledge nor physical ability can compete with the upcoming events. Although the Goblet of Fire will select the most suitable warriors, its standards are also difficult to predict. Sometimes it may also value certain potentials that have not yet been explored. Even though people with those potentials don’t have enough strength yet…”
"The act of throwing your name into the cup actually forms a magical contract that must be abided by. Once you become a warrior, you are not allowed to change your mind. Therefore, please think twice before you act and make sure that you really have your whole heart and mind. When you participate in the competition, you are also able to take the risks that come with the competition and then put your name in the cup.”
"So,"
He glanced at the silent auditorium with satisfaction, looked at the expressions on his students' faces that were either thoughtful or eager to try, and nodded: "Then I announce that tonight's banquet is over - everyone can go back and rest. , wish you good night."
After saying that, he started over and started talking to the two principals next to him, letting the Goblet of Fire lie there without any hindrance, as if he wasn't worried at all that his students would throw his name into it casually-- As the principal of this school for many years, Karkaroff has a rough idea of the level of the students under his command. In other words, those students have a chance of becoming warriors, but those students have no chance at all, and he has a rough idea in his mind.
And there is another reason, that is, the previous Triwizard Tournament has proven that the fact that all students from the host school can register is an advantage unique to the host country - after all, the Goblet of Fire is a castle directly connected with the three schools. The person whose consciousness is connected must also be the person that the castle consciousness thinks is most likely to bring him victory. Therefore, there have been many times in history where students who were originally unknown students suddenly became warriors, and then used their own specialties to unexpectedly win...
But of course, there are more cases where non-elite students are crushed or even killed after becoming warriors.
This is why Karkaroff had to remind his students about this.
"...You think, should we put our names in now?"
Someone in the Hogwarts team seemed to be unable to hold on any longer. He kept staring at the Goblet of Fire burning with blue flames and asked his companions around him.
"Uh, not so good, the three principals are still around..."
"No, look Beauxbatons! They're already here!"
After hearing this, everyone turned their heads and saw that the Beauxbatons students in exquisite light blue clothing had stood up one after another, bypassing the Durmstrang students in red robes in front and walking straight towards them. After saying something to Madam Maxim and Karkaroff, and getting their approval, they lined up in front of the Goblet of Fire...
"Then let's go too."
Someone at Hogwarts stood up on the spot, and then a large group of people also stood up...
"Ken?"
Cedric and Balon also stood up, and then they found Avada sitting there as if her computer was down. They couldn't help but poked his shoulder in confusion: "Aren't you going?"
"...Huh? What are you going to?"
Avada suddenly trembled and stood up, like a student who was distracted in class and was caught by the professor on the spot.
"Go sign up and throw your name and school into the Goblet of Fire."
Balon pointed doubtfully at the Hogwarts team that had started to move forward: "What are you thinking about? Are you so entranced?"
"...It's nothing, just a small problem."
Avada shook her head, and used her wand to conjure a small piece of paper and a quill. She wrote "Ken, Hogwarts" on it, then she held it in her hand and followed the others. student……
It’s no wonder that he reacted so slowly. On the one hand, it was because he and Belby were discussing more complicated issues at Nobic Ridge University, which caused him to divert a lot of mental energy. On the other hand, it was because He is still trying to analyze the ins and outs of this game.
Judging from the current situation, Karkaroff does not seem to have any problems. His mental state was very natural when he spoke just now, and he did not appear nervous or uneasy when communicating with other principals - if he was really involved, then If Xiang could plan to kill Dumbledore, then even if he could disguise himself perfectly when facing this powerful wizard, he would still be a little uneasy deep down.
Another important issue is Barty Crouch Sr. Even during Karkaroff's long speech, he still didn't get distracted or seemed to be thinking about anything.
He really had no idea that Barty Crouch Jr. had escaped.
why is that?
The way he controlled little Barty was to personally cast the Imperius Curse, and also arranged for his own house elves to guard him closely. It stands to reason that this kind of protection can ensure that Batty cannot do anything under his nose, even if it is to modify the memory, it is impossible - he has imprisoned Batty for nearly ten years, and he wants to delete this period. All the memories of Barty Jr. are a huge undertaking...
However, this possibility must be guarded against. Later, he would have to take the opportunity to put the note close to Old Batty to carefully observe his mental power to see if there were any traces of modification - I hope that those few seconds enough time for him to confirm the situation.
So, he followed the Hogwarts team and lined up behind the Beauxbatons students, moving almost at a normal walking speed - everyone just threw a note into the Goblet of Fire and left. Won't stay much longer. Soon, he was close enough to observe Barty Crouch carefully - he was talking to a Professor Durmstrang next to him.
"At first glance it seems there is no problem..."
He only had a few seconds to get close to the teacher's seat. He didn't show any abnormality after throwing his name into the Goblet of Fire. Instead, he followed the friends around him and walked back to their train in groups.
