Hogwarts Slytherin

Chapter 122 Christmas Ball

Rui Ji stood on the sofa in the lounge of the participating delegates and read a book. A pale and slender hand was placed between him and the book. He wore a scarlet gemstone ring on his thumb. It was not common for girls to choose to wear the ring on their thumb. .

Reggie raised his head and saw the dazzling Hilde.

Hilde seems to be extremely fond of the color red.

She wore very formal makeup, her hair was tied high on her head, and some loose hair hung casually in front of her forehead, and she was wearing a long burgundy dress.

Reggie smiled politely, kissed her hand politely, and praised sincerely: "It's perfect."

This is true. Red is a very difficult color to control. It has nothing to do with appearance. What matters is temperament.

For example, he had a red Porsche trot in reality, but it looked very tacky. Later, it was changed to green, which was far less stunning than the red Ferrari, but the latter was beyond the budget.

The castle is full of well-dressed people, and even the underground area where few people usually pass by is full of people coming and going, and all kinds of dresses come into view.

Although the Christmas ball held at Hogwarts has not ended, there are still many men and women who have achieved their goals, holding hands and hiding in various corners of the castle, whispering, and some people will also find some deserted places to have in-depth exchanges.

Reggie took Hilde on his arm and walked toward the club meeting point. Many people looked at them sideways along the way.

Hilde was a few years older than him, but fortunately he was well developed and didn't seem to be suppressed by the opponent's aura.

Professor Slughorn is really a very, very enjoyable wizard.

Pushing open the door, there is a world of ice and snow.

There was a thick layer of ice on the ground, but there was no coldness at all in the room.

Everyone was wearing gorgeous dresses. I don't know if it was because of the spell or the potion, but everyone seemed to be enveloped in a soft halo.

A huge crystal fountain was placed in the center of the dance floor. In the center of the fountain was a huge snake, and what it sprayed out were fine snowflakes.

It can be said without shame that most of the potential of Hogwarts is gathered here.

Those present are a group of young people with extraordinary qualities. They may be particularly talented in some aspects, or have strong and influential family backgrounds.

music?

"Skeleton Band!" Reggie silently sighed at Professor Slughorn's generosity. This is one of the top bands in the magic world, and he actually invited him!

It's just the Slug Club's annual Christmas party.

Even Dumbledore would not be so extravagant and wasteful.

There are a lot of food and wine on the long tables placed on both sides of the hall, and in front of the tables.

There are actually students working as waiters!

When he saw the four marauders, Reggie's eyes almost dropped.

As far as he knew, Potter and Sirius had also received an invitation from Professor Slughorn earlier - inviting them to join the Slug Club.

However, the two of them couldn't stand Slytherin, and they couldn't stand the very snobbish Professor Slughorn even more. They all secretly called him Old Slughorn behind their backs.

So the two of them refused without thinking, and even boasted about their heroic behavior in the Gryffindor common room by severely rejecting the old slug's face.

"Why did they come here?"

Seeing the Potters wearing funny waiter clothes and holding trays in their hands, Reggie vaguely recalled the poor house elves at the first party.

It's just that Potter's eyes looked in a certain direction with murderous intent from time to time.

Reggie followed his eyes.

It's Lily and Snape!

Seeing Lily's outfit, even Reggie, who had always been immune to beautiful women, couldn't help but be stunned.

Lily's long fiery red hair was tied up on the back of her head, leaving two strands of hair on her temples, with some playful curls.

She was wearing a silver, skin-hugging gown that accentuated her underdeveloped figure.

The two of them didn't know what they said. Lily covered her mouth, lowered her head and smiled, then turned around and took a glass of wine.

At this moment, Reggie's eyes fell on Lily's round shoulders and boldly exposed back...

It must be said that at this moment, Lily exuded the aura of "I am very attractive" all over her body, full of contradictions between purity and sexiness, and many people's eyes lit up when they looked at her.

He saw that as Lily turned around, Potter's eyes seemed to burst into flames and felt aggrieved.

At this moment, Hilde was so smart. He just looked at the small actions of a few people and mentally summarized the relationship between them. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl up slightly, and then he felt bored again.

And Reggie is also blessed with blessings. Look at Hilde standing next to him. She exudes the temperament of "when the young lady comes, everyone gets out of the way". You must know the man's damn desire to conquer!

At least a quarter of the boys sighed inwardly at the thought of such a top-notch guy being with a brat with no hair on his head.

At the top of the hour, the lights changed and the band started to play a melodious song.

According to tradition, Professor Slughorn led the headmaster of Ilvermorny onto the dance floor first and began to lead the dance.

Looking at the two people dancing in the field, Reggie couldn't help but sigh a little: "The dean is shining - the light hits his head, and the blank space in the middle almost reflects light."

Then everyone walked down the dance floor and danced to the music.

Reggie slowly rotated Hilde, and he whispered: "To be honest, I feel like I have become a thorn in everyone's side."

Hilde stopped on the dance floor and discovered the little secret in her dress.

Under the light, the burgundy dress changes into a dazzling light.

Perhaps under the influence of the magic potion, even under the slightly dimmed light, every strand of Hilde's hair was still glowing.

Gradually, she involuntarily began to attract the attention of others, with her mature and elegant dance steps, cold and noble temperament, as well as her strong power and impressive family background - the only witch among the representatives of the Durmstrang Academy of Magic.

Under all circumstances, Lily is naturally incomparable.

Those who are better than her are not as young as her, those who are younger than her are not as strong as her, and those who are stronger than her may not be as beautiful as her.

"Reggie is so lucky. Why did someone take the initiative to invite him?"

"Did that Durmstrang girl take the initiative?"

"I heard that she wants to steal the genius from our Hogwarts!"

The students who came to volunteer as waiters looked at the people on the dance floor with envy and whispered together.

Hilde's eyes flashed, filled with arrogance that did not put others in his eyes: "Mr. Duke, I thought we were the same kind of people."

"Of course not, you are a girl and I am a boy." Reggie said sincerely.

As influential figures in the two schools, the two seemingly unrelated people suddenly appeared in front of everyone as a prom, which inevitably aroused all kinds of speculation.

As time slowly passed, the lights became more and more ambiguous, and the music became more and more intoxicating.

The dance has entered the stage of changing partners.

Inevitably, Reggie felt the gentle touch from his palm, and there was a delicate back under his head.

Lily suddenly stiffened.

Reggie reacted quickly and supported her behind, causing Lily's body to relax a little.

"Will the fearless Gryffindor be nervous too?" Reggie said with a smile on his face.

"I didn't..." Lily blushed a little, but still gritted her teeth and said firmly: "Besides, Gryffindor does not mean fearless. The only one who is fearless is the arrogant Potter!"

Reggie was stunned for a moment, then chuckled: "It seems that the speed at which Potter gets beaten in training sessions cannot keep up with the speed at which he can make you angry."

This actually made Lily feel a little bit embarrassed. Thinking of the way Potter threw away his wand and let her slaughter him every time, a trace of guilt appeared in his eyes: "Actually, if he doesn't act stupid, that guy is still pretty good."

She was simply talking about things.

A song ends.

Reggie and Hilde stood at the table and talked nonsense. In the eyes of those who didn't know it, they looked like they were having a great conversation, and the man was talented and the woman was beautiful.

But Hilde suddenly looked over slightly, put her lips to Reggie and spoke.

Rui Ji was alert in his heart, but because he didn't know the other party's purpose, he still turned his ears cooperatively.

Therefore, he missed the sudden deepening smile on Hilde's face, and her faint red eyes flashed narrowly in the flickering light.

She suddenly kissed Reggie on the face, which was a simple French kiss: "Mr. Duke, thank you very much for inviting me to the Yule Ball tonight, and letting me see another side of Hogwarts." Awesome style - by the way, your earrings are nice and match you very well."

Rui Ji really wanted to ask the other party if he had taken the wrong medicine!

It's the cold goddess that we promised.

If you mess around like this... then I have to kiss you back.

"Excuse me, can Sev and I get some wine?" A cold voice sounded from behind, and Reggie felt as if his heart stopped beating for a moment - it was Lily.

The heartbeat stopped for a moment and then started beating wildly, like beating a drum.

It feels like being caught stealing.

As we all know, the calmer a girl's voice is, the higher her anger level is.

Reggie quickly distanced himself from Hilde and stepped aside as if he was electrocuted.

Hilde, who was wearing a red dress, turned around and left in a good mood. Reggie didn't even notice that his female companion had left.

A quarter of the boys present had noticed.

He looked at Lily silently as if she was ignoring him, holding up two wine glasses and joking with Snape as if no one was watching, and Snape was obviously trying to kill his brother for women.

In this situation, brothers are like coats, which is not necessary at all.

Secretly anxious, Reggie quickly made a decision.

The lights dimmed.

This is the beginning of the second dance.

This song is very lyrical, the lights are very dim, and the whole room is dark.

Lily didn't seem to be in the mood to dance, and she and Snape didn't talk, just drinking one cup after another.

Suddenly, she felt a warm hand grab her.

It's Reggie.

Without any explanation, Reggie pulled her directly onto the dance floor, with Snape's expression behind him making it difficult to see clearly.

The dance was terrible this time because Lily was so stiff that she even kept stepping on Reggie's feet on purpose.

Reggie gasped deliberately.

It successfully made the angry red-haired witch feel a little guilty.

"Hey, it seems that Professor Slughorn's design made some mistakes. The lights were too dim." Reggie deliberately used a relaxed tone to get the other party to answer, but then he was stepped on hard.

These are really high heels!

"Hiss" it really hurt this time.

"Oh! I'm sorry, I didn't see it." Lily apologized softly and finally spoke, but her voice didn't sound sincere.

"Did you not see it or did you not want to see it?" Reggie said with a smile.

"Shut up, Reggie!" The dim light blocked the embarrassment on her face, but it couldn't hide the annoyance in her tone.

"Shut up? Who are you? Where is that gentle, cute and kind little Lily?"

"Ow!"

"I just don't want to see it." Lily stepped on him hard again.

"I already regret inviting you." Reggie blurted out without thinking too much.

This was just an unintentional remark. When he said it, he didn't expect Lily's reaction. At most, he thought that the other party would kick him again.

He didn't mind being stepped on by Lily a few times. To be honest, if this could comfort an angry girl, it was simply the lowest price.

However, Lily suddenly stopped. Her green eyes stared at Reggie, and the relaxed expression on her face disappeared instantly, instead revealing an expression of anger mixed with sadness.

Reggie had never seen such an expression on her face. In the past, she would always show admiration or smile, or at best ignore him. But at this moment, he had never seen such a sad and desperate expression.

This made him a little unable to react.

For a while I didn't understand what went wrong.

"What did you say?" Lily's heart sank to the bottom. Did she regret inviting her?

Rui Ji opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to quibble for a while.

"Very good! I don't want to dance with you at all!" Her voice inadvertently raised the volume due to excessive anger, alarming the dancing students around her.

Even Professor Slughorn slowly stopped and looked at his two most beloved disciples with some astonishment as they seemed to be having some kind of conflict and were undecided whether to go over and mediate.

"You bad guy!" Lily's big green eyes were filled with tears, but she was still strong enough not to let them fall. At this time, she seemed to be acting like a stubborn Gryffindor again.

"Lily - yes." Reggie finally realized the seriousness of the matter. He subconsciously pulled Lily, trying to take her aside first.

who knows.

The red-haired witch coldly shook off his hand and said in a cold tone: "Mr. Duke! Please stay away from me and don't touch me! Otherwise, I don't know what I will do. Maybe - It’s a nice touch that you hang it from the ceiling.”

Immediately she turned around and left proudly, but the moment she turned around, a drop of transparent liquid fell from her eye socket.

The others moved out of the way for him, no one wanted to piss off an angry witch.

What's more, Lily has recently joined the fighting club, and her points have increased rapidly.
