Wizards of Hogwarts

Chapter 77 Albus Dumbledore

Dumbledore waved the wand in his hand, and all the chairs in the engagement banquet hall were light and elegant and lifted high enough into the air, leaving enough room for people to move; the four white walls suddenly rolled up outwards, looking towards the Looking outside, it is full of sunny orchards and surrounding green countryside, and the scenery is extremely natural and beautiful.

Short house elf waiters popped up from all directions. Some of them were carrying silver trays with pumpkin juice, butterbeer and fire whiskey; some were carrying colorful and well-matched fruit platters, including apples, pears, Strawberries; others carried crumbling piles of mince pies and cheese sandwiches

The engagement party officially began as a band wearing bright purple tops took to the stage.

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of the crowd, Theseus and Rita took the lead on the dance floor, stepping gracefully according to the rhythm of the band. It was obvious that they had practiced what kind of dance they wanted to dance in advance.

After a while, Theseus and Rita retreated amidst the blessings of the crowd, and more wizards walked into the center of the dance floor.

"Should we go over to congratulate your brother and, uh," Elrohir asked Newt's opinion, omitting Leta Lestrange's name.

"Huh!" Newt's chest rose and fell violently several times, and he let out a long breath.

"Are you okay?" Elrohir asked.

"I feel like I'm fine." A smile appeared on Newt's face, which was also the first positive emotion he showed at the engagement party.

Elrohir was a little skeptical: "Really?"

"I really feel pretty good," Newt said seriously, "since I was expelled from Hogwarts."

Elrohir wisely did not ask Newt why he was expelled at this time. It was probably because of magical animals.

"Leta and I have grown apart," Newt said very calmly. "We were very happy together in the past. We took care of the injured crows, visited the playful Bowtruckles, and spent time together. Those days when we were discriminated against, laughed at, and looked down upon by others, but now, Lita and I can no longer feel each other’s thoughts, we are no longer compatible, and we should go our separate ways.”

"It's not something you'd say," Elrohir confessed, "like some stupid pink starfish would say when it suddenly dawned on her."

"What" Newt wondered.

"It's nothing." Elrohir shook his head, "If you have nothing to do, shouldn't we go give blessings to the newlyweds?"

"" Newt pursed his lips, "I'd better take you to meet the other guests first."

Elrohir glanced at Newt and understood. I mean, you are such a boring coward and you still can't let go of Leta Lestrange, even if there is Tina in the United States. Goldstein.

What kind of confrontation is this between childhood sweethearts and Tiansheng?

It is true that the absolute protagonists of this engagement party are the newlyweds Theseus Scamander and Leta Lestrange, but the British wizarding world is so big. Theseus was in the battle a few years ago. He was famous for his bravery and was even praised as a "war hero" by the British Minister of Magic.

Although Leta Lestrange's reputation was not very good when she was at Hogwarts, she is now a very outstanding Auror and is highly regarded by the Director of the Department of Legal Enforcement.

In addition, the Lestrange is also an ancient pure-blood wizarding family. Although it originated in France, it also has branches in the United Kingdom. It is also listed in the pure-blood directory that was secretly published recently and remains "truly pure" to this day. 28 British wizarding families.

By the way, Cantan Cruznot, the author of the Pure Blood Directory, directly calls these 28 families the "28 Holy Families" in the book.

By the way, the Potter family is not one of the "28 Holy Families". Instead, the Ollivander family, which specializes in making staffs, is one of them. It is rumored that the Weasley family included their family in Cantankerous Nott. "28 Saints" felt regretful and dissatisfied.

Well, these are all the information Elrohir looked up temporarily before attending this engagement party.

Having said so much, Elrohir just wanted to say that there were really many guests attending this engagement banquet. They were either from famous families or powerful, and they came from all over the world.

Not to mention that reporters from the Daily Prophet were frantically taking pictures throughout the whole process. Even the North American side sent reporters here. I don’t know if they came here for Newt’s sake.

Elrohir had just followed Newt to greet Hector Foley, the British Minister of Magic, who came to the banquet. The three of them had met before at the Magical Capitol Building in the United States.

Minister Hector also had a vague impression of Elrohir. Although he only had a glimpse of him more than half a year ago, such a handsome and suave person was like a firefly at night, and could not be hidden no matter what.

But that's just it. Minister Hector is busy with his own affairs, and he only came to attend the banquet today because Theseus and Lita are both young backbones of the Ministry of Magic.

After Newt took Elrohir to chat with Minister Hector for a while, he said goodbye politely.

After visiting several respected wizards, Elrohir heard a few familiar voices. It was the one named Dumbledore.

"Harry Potter family, I know that you were close to Muggles. Fleamont behaved very well in school and was a very good Gryffindor."

"It's Dumbledore, Mr. Henry Potter, and his son Fleamont Potter." Newt explained in advance.

"Henry," Elrohir asked, "Why did I hear it was Harry?"

"Dumbledore likes to call him that. He and Mr. Potter are both members of the Wizengamot." Newt said. "It is said that Mr. Potter's good friends like to call him that. A few years ago, Mr. Potter and I were We had brief contact on the Eastern Front."

After walking forward for a while, Elrohir finally saw the three people behind the crowd.

Dumbledore, a hale and hearty white-haired old man, and a young wizard with messy black hair, who looked like they had just left school.

This is the glare between father and son Elrohir. The age gap is a bit big, right? Or even wizards are good. This family actively responded to the late marriage and late childbearing policy.

"Newt" Dumbledore noticed the arrival of Newt and Elrohir. He stood up from his seat and hugged Newt.

"Aren't you going to introduce me?" Dumbledore asked Newt. He was naturally talking about Elrohir.

"Elrohir, Newt's friend." Elrohir extended his hand and introduced himself.

"Albus Dumbledore," Dumbledore responded humorously with a wink, "is also Newt's friend."

Elrohir had a headache, and his Occlumency was triggered again.

This duplicitous middle-aged bald guy is a bit difficult to deal with.

Dumbledore let go of his hand and touched his smooth forehead silently.

Elrohir's eyelids twitched, someone saw her thoughts.

Damn, his thoughts just now were too active, which is an absolute taboo when performing Occlumency.

After calming down, Elrohir used his Occlumency technique with all his strength, and his whole temperament gradually turned to indifference and calmness.

Dumbledore suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Fleamont Potter: "Fleamont, I remember that you recently wanted to make a shampoo product, right?"

Fremont Porter was confused and said, "No, not shampoo."

"Additional Potion"

"I have graduated. Don't test my knowledge of potions anymore, Dumbledore." Fleamont rubbed his messy hair, "What I want to do is a quick and smooth hair spray to make this hair smoother." Your obedient hair should be at peace."

"What do you think of Elrohir?" Dumbledore suddenly pointed to Elrohir's hair. "Look at his hair."

Elrohir's face was expressionless. He decided to consider August's proposal to go to France. There is definitely something wrong with this Dumbledore.

And Elrohir has a hunch that if she continues to contact Dumbledore, she will definitely run into trouble.
