Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Chapter 172: Rumors about Luna’s dramatic change of temperament and the crown

Dudley originally planned to talk to Pansy as soon as he got rid of the team's celebrations, but the problem was that he couldn't find Pansy anywhere.

After asking Pansy's roommate, he could only confirm that she had not returned to the dormitory. Considering Pansy's physical condition, he also went to the school doctor's office to look for her, but Madam Pomfrey also said she had not seen her.

While Dudley was considering asking Fred and George to borrow the Marauder's Map, he met Luna and Ginny at the door of Gryffindor Tower.

"Dudley? I thought you were still having a celebratory dinner with the Slytherin Quidditch team." Luna's voice sounded very brisk, "Your flying skills just now were great - and it looked like a normal sweep. Three times the speed of Seven Stars.”

"Are you looking for Pansy Parkinson? We seemed to have seen her just now." Ginny was still holding the red flag for the Gryffindor team in her hand. "She seemed to have met Sparrow in the restricted area of ​​the corridor on the sixth floor. Professor Te, and was dissuaded from leaving.”

Although Pansy was still not found, at least knowing that she was still in the castle gave Dudley a lot of peace of mind.After saying goodbye to Luna and Ginny, Dudley decided to go back to the Slytherin common room and wait patiently for Pansy to come back.

Finally, when it was almost the gate time in the evening, Dudley finally saw Pansy returning to the dormitory. He only saw that she was carrying a bulging small satchel, but her face looked much better than when she was on the Quidditch pitch.

"I'm sorry, Dudley, for making you worry - the Weasley sister said you were looking for me, right?" A gentle smile appeared on Pansy's somewhat pale face, "Don't worry, I'm fine, I just got caught. You were just a little scared by the situation during the game.”

As if aware of Dudley's gaze on her satchel, Pansy instead took the initiative to open the satchel and give it to Dudley to see.

""The Magic of Quidditch", "Quidditch: Beginner's Guide", "100 Tips for Flying Broomsticks"..." Pansy's satchel was filled with Quidditch-related information. Books, and they all have loan tag cards from the Hogwarts Library.

"Dudley, the way you play is too dangerous. Last year you fell off your broomstick, and this year you have the Bludger on your head." Pansy looked at Dudley angrily, then took back her satchel, "I'm going to the library. I spent an afternoon searching for Quidditch-related books in the library. Next year I will also join the Slytherin Quidditch team and keep an eye on you."

"Pansy, are you okay?" Dudley reached out and touched Pansy's forehead, but Pansy didn't look abnormal now.

"Really, don't make such a fuss. It's just that the cold you had a few days ago is not completely gone." Pansy gently took Dudley's hand away. Dudley felt that Pansy's little hand was very soft and warm, not as cold as before. .

Now that Pansy's condition seemed to be back to normal, Dudley had no choice but to continue to bury his doubts in his heart.

Pansy's recovery was very complete. From the next day, she seemed to be back to the way she was when school started. From class in the morning to before returning to the dormitory in the evening, she was almost always with Dudley, and she was also very cheerful. Talkative.

Although this troubled Dudley somewhat, Pansy was much better now than when she was inexplicably weak before, so Dudley let Pansy do what he did.

Several weeks passed quickly. During this period, there were no incidents in the school, and the rumors about the so-called Slytherin heir gradually subsided. The new hot topic was Dudley's performance in the Quidditch match. Wonderful performance.

After all, many people knew that there was an Acromantula in the Forbidden Forest, and in fact it did not cause serious consequences. Filch finally woke up after lying in the school hospital for more than a week, but he still It still takes some time to get back to a working state.

Unfortunately, Filch basically failed to provide much useful information. According to him, when he was patrolling the corridor on the sixth floor, he suddenly saw eight dark eyes on the ceiling, and then quickly lost consciousness.

"Perhaps Mrs. Loris accidentally ate the Acromantula eggs that day, which led to revenge." Ron seemed to have come out of the shadow of seeing a lot of Acromantulas that day, "Professor Hope We can put a spell on the castle and ban all animals with more than four legs from entering or exiting the castle."

Dudley and Pansy were dining with the Harry trio, and Harry kept asking Dudley about his Quidditch experience, as if he really thought he was a flying master. Dudley had no choice but to treat Pansy The words in the borrowed book kept confusing Harry.

"After seeing your performance in the game, Wood went crazy with excitement." Harry said with a wry smile, "He has been asking us to train with you as a target recently - and he keeps talking about why you are not on the Gryffindor team every day. inside."

At this moment, Ginny also came over and sat next to Ron.But she looked depressed, with worries written all over her face.Dudley noticed that Luna, who she had often traveled with before, was not by her side.

"What's going on, Ginny?" Ron noticed his sister's condition, "Are you still worried about Gryffindor's loss to Slytherin, but Harry and the others didn't care, and victory and defeat are common... ....”

Ginny shook her head slightly and remained silent.Hermione was much more sensitive and asked directly to the point: "What happened between you and Luna? You two were obviously inseparable before."

Hearing Hermione's words, Ginny stopped holding the spoon in her hand, and after a moment, she sighed.

"Luna has been feeling very strange recently... she feels a little strange to me." Ginny whispered melancholy, "Although she has always been a little different from other girls, she used to be very considerate and considerate. It’s different now.”

"I think I heard Terry Boot say that Luna seems to be quite famous in Ravenclaw recently, and they even gave her a nickname..." Harry whispered.

"Crazy girl Lovegood." Ginny frowned, "Although people have said this before, most of them were meant to be ridiculing - but now, the derogatory connotation of this title seems to have strengthened."

"So what's wrong with Luna? I know she's a bit unsociable, but it shouldn't be..." Dudley asked in a deep voice.

"She has suddenly become a lot more sensitive recently. She used to ignore some students when they made fun of her, but now she responds fiercely. She also often conflicts with others and speaks very hurtfully, often in person. Point out other people’s pain.”

"Just now, she and Marietta Ikemo had a fight. Luna pointedly pointed out that Ikemo was a snitch who loved to tell teachers, and Ikemo insulted Luna's father in a fit of anger. Magazine—Luna cast a very complicated and vicious curse on the spot, leaving Acmo’s face densely engraved with the words of an informer.”

"Did Luna use a curse on others?" Dudley's heart sank. In his impression, Luna was a figure like an otherworldly elf, both in the original work and in this world.

"And Luna seems to be getting more and more obsessed with those mythical legends." Ginny said with a worried look, "Things like the Bent-Horned Snorlax, the Bubble Snot Monster and the like are all ridiculous things. Just two days ago, she secretly told me——"

"She found Ravenclaw's lost diadem."
