time at hogwarts

The following week was a perfect interpretation of what Magos said that night. The seventh-grade seniors from the four colleges frantically challenged the people who owned the magic cards for the magic cards, or for the rewards of the finals.Harry, the twins, and other people who were going to have Quidditch training in the evening didn't run away. They challenged them during their lunch break and lost their cards.And Magos didn't know who sold him out. Facing the increasingly skilled seniors, he still failed to keep his magic cards with a record of three wins. The three magic cards he owned were also lost. I didn't go to any grade to give it to him, but gave one to Parvati, and then she lost to a Ravenclaw in seconds. The last one disappeared without him even knowing it, if it hadn't been for the sheepskin that suddenly appeared. He didn't know what to do with the paper and the name on it. He felt that if he dared to come out and say that the Ace of Cards Tournament was not going to be held, he would probably die without any body parts.

Later, Magos contacted other producers and found out that among the 16 people responsible for making the magic cards, the only one who can still keep the magic cards is Kang, who is in sixth grade, but judging from his tone, it is probably difficult to persist. to the finals.

"Hermione, it's up to you whether the juniors in our college can enter the King of Cards Tournament. I've inquired about the situation of the other three colleges. Currently, Ravenclaw has the most magic cards, 18 in total, followed by Hutch. Patch, there are 15 cards in total, then there are 11 cards in our house, and finally Slytherin, only 9 cards, but I heard that they are now thinking of ways to challenge people in other houses who hold magic cards. But I am very strange how to calculate it. There is one missing card, I don’t know whose hand it is, and there is no news at all.” Ron sat opposite Hermione and chattered about magic cards.Hermione looked sullen and ignored him, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Have all the magic cards of the four colleges been won by the seniors?"

"Absolutely, except for Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, who each have five cards in the hands of wizards below fifth year, the only one left is Hermione from our college."

"I'll go, it's so fierce." Magos was frightened by the crazy seniors. In just a few days, the lower class will be wiped out?

"Well, Hermione, what do you think, do you want to participate in this King of Cards Tournament?" Looking at Hermione who was silent, Magos was also a little confused.

"No way, will Hermione not participate in the King of Cards Tournament?" Ron looked at the little witch who was eating quietly in surprise.

From beginning to end, Hermione didn't give them a few answers to the question about the King of Cards Tournament. She either didn't speak, or glared impatiently, and finally put down the tableware and left.

"Okay, don't ask. I guess she hasn't thought about it yet. She decided to play because Parvati agreed to her conditions, and it was probably just for fun. But now she is so disturbed by the senior class, the lower class She's the only one left, and it's hard for her to give up." McGoss shook his head. To be honest, he could have imagined that the senior students would be interested in the rewards of the Card Game, but he never expected that their interest would be so great. , and Hermione suddenly appeared. It would have been fine if she had lost when she broke in as a senior. Not only did she not lose, but she also became the only junior holder in their college. She was very interested in this. That's all for those who are interested, but Hermione has always been resistant to magic cards.

Thinking of this, he had no intention of chatting with two little brats here. He caught up with Hermione to find out her attitude. If she really didn't want him, he might as well think of a way.

As a result, after asking Lavender in the lounge, he found out that Hermione had not returned to the lounge. Magos thought for less than three seconds and guessed that she should have gone to the library. He happened to remember to give it to Pingsi for Christmas. Madam’s dozens of books about love ethics and heart-wrenching TV dramas that will be popular among middle-aged and elderly women in the next few years. It’s time to see the effect of those books.

When he arrived at the library, he found that there were quite a lot of people. He didn't expect everyone to hang out in the lounge to play wizards. But it was understandable. The reward was only for seniors, especially the seventh-grade seniors who were leaving school this year. It has greater appeal. Now that the cards have been taken away from the little wizards, there is no point in just sitting in the lounge and playing it.

Although the library is very large, Hermione's appearance is still very eye-catching. Her thick brown hair betrays her instantly. I looked around and found Mrs. Pince patrolling, and I don't know if those gifts can' Impress her, but he doesn't care. Even if she is not satisfied with the gifts, she will be kicked out at most.

Magos sat down opposite Hermione. Hermione glanced at him and then returned to the huge and thick book.He didn't bother her, just took out a book from the pile of books next to her and started reading it silently.Except for the sound of turning pages, none of them spoke, quietly rippling in the ocean of knowledge.

"Magos." After an unknown amount of time, Hermione was the first to break the silence.Magos raised his head and waited quietly for her next words.

"I don't want to go to the Ace of Cards tournament."

& nb

"Then I won't go." Magos smiled.

"But……"

Magos wanted to laugh when he saw Hermione biting her lip and looking confused.

"What are you thinking about? You are you and they are them. Why should you care what they think? Ron's words are just words. Don't take this too seriously. It's just a game. If you want to participate, just Participate. If you don’t want to participate, then don’t. What a big deal.” He paused, “Besides, I’m not familiar with them anyway. Besides, who stipulates that if you win against the seniors, you will never lose to the little wizard again... "

Hermione's troubled expression disappeared after hearing this, she smiled happily, lowered her head and continued reading.

"Stop reading, go back to the lounge and give me the cards." After saying that, he closed the big book in front of Hermione.Hermione made a face and stood up, placing the book back on the shelf with him.

"By the way, why haven't I seen Mrs. Pince? This is really rare. Didn't she come out to guard you like a thief?" Magos asked curiously after leaving the library.

"She seems to be quite busy. When I came, she told me to pay attention to the books and then disappeared somewhere." Hermione shook her head and said she didn't know.Magos touched his chin, which had not yet grown hair, and thought for a moment. It seemed that his gift might have worked.

Back in the lounge, Ron and the others showed pity after hearing that Hermione was going to lose the card to Magos. Magos was so angry that they kicked each of them. This was looking down on him in front of him.

"Just wait until you see me break into the King of Cards Tournament." Magos's Hongyuan was booed by them in unison, his face full of disdain.

"If Hermione said this, we would still believe it, but you..." Parvati's look of disgust said it all.Everyone else nodded in agreement.

They had deliberately publicized the fact that Magos had obtained Hermione's magic card. Basically, everyone who followed the Card Game knew about it. What was unexpected was that the person who came over at noon the next day to take away his magic card was not from the academy. not a wizard, but a group of ghosts.McGoss never imagined that the news of the Card Ace Tournament would touch these ghosts who usually don't show off their appearance.

When the ghosts drifted into the Gryffindor first-year common room, the temperature inside plummeted several degrees.Magos and the others looked at the group of ghosts floating in front of them while trembling and dumbfounded.

After questioning, I found out that this group of ghosts also had the idea of ​​having a portrait in the championship reward. Although these old and old fritters have become immortal, they still have the desire to be in the limelight. In their opinion, the reward of this King of Cards Competition is It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Without saying anything, since someone came to challenge, Magos accepted the challenge. As a result, the level of this group of ghosts who floated over confidently was not even as good as the first-year wizards.

Magos had some doubts about being a wizard. These ghosts have been around for who knows how many years. It would be embarrassing if they lost the first round.In the end, he thought too much. Ravenclaw's ghost Helena Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff's ghost Fat Friar, two Muggles who were supposed to join forces, fought to the death in front of the surprised eyes of all the young wizards. Goss played a few single cards, and the two magical ghosts threw away all the big cards in their hands. McGoss won the game effortlessly.

In the second game, after a while of discussion, the ghosts sent out the Gryffindor ghost Nico, who was almost headless, and a Ravenclaw ghost whom Magos didn't recognize.This time they learned the lesson and knew that they could not fight to the death on their own, so they prepared to work together to win this magic card first.However, the cards were so good that there was nothing they could do about it. Under Magos's super smooth deck of cards, the two ghosts were defeated unwillingly.

A group of ghosts thought they could easily get a magic card, but they didn't expect that a first-year wizard could easily deal with them. Everyone was dumbfounded. In the end, Helena said that she and the fat monk should join forces. .It's just that this group of ghosts who have never been exposed to this game are no match for Magos. In Magos's words, they are just a group of people giving away experience.With their selfless help, Magos easily got five kills in a row.

Seeing that the ghosts couldn't play with it, Magos's mood quickly dropped, and the temperature in the lounge became even lower. It felt like reliving the cold winter. Harry and the others quickly took out a few decks of playing cards and gave them to them, telling them that they just need to play more. You can improve your level by playing.The ghosts floated away with a few decks of playing cards in doubt.

After the ghosts left, the little wizards in the lounge breathed a sigh of relief, and then they all ran away from the public rest room where the temperature was close to zero.

"Why are they still interested in this when they are all ghosts?" Harry and Ron were puzzled. These ghosts must have been doing nothing, so why were they suddenly interested in the game they organized?

"Maybe it's temporary. Once they lose a few more times, I guess they won't be interested anymore."
