The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

When the banquet ended, the scene was in a mess again.

But it was different from the last time John came.

This time the Countess showed no signs of fatigue.

She was still very excited.

With a pair of glowing eyes, John and Alice began to visit Lopez Castle.

While visiting, I was still flattering.

The flattery is on full display.

John couldn't help but want to laugh.

Her flattering attitude intensified over the next two days.

Not only did John's room and board conditions have been raised several levels.

Even Alice, who was used as a 'tool' by the Countess, saw her salary improve even more.

And on the third day, the goblin dinner was finally about to begin.

That afternoon the countess found John and Alice with two sets of black dresses.

"Quickly put it on! Quickly put it on and let me see!"

The countess said earnestly, "I specially asked a French designer to make this quickly. It is definitely suitable for you!"

Under the service of the alchemy dolls, John and Alice changed into dresses respectively.

It turns out that the countess wasn't lying either.

These two sets of dresses with similar styles are indeed perfect on John and Alice.

Especially Alice.

That dress almost accentuated her temperament to the extreme.

People can't help but look sideways.

But John's eyes were always focused on the Countess.

Today she also put on a brand new open-breasted dress in the forget-me-not color.

It is also paired with a large number of jewelry, and the light of the magic lamp shines on her body. The white and greasy skin is almost the same as the jewelry, reflecting the restless light.

Of course, the most important thing is the huge turquoise gem pendant on his chest.

Obviously, this is the 'Lopez Jewel'.

John kept his eyes on the gem.

The more he looked, the more familiar it seemed.

It always felt like he must have seen this thing somewhere.

If possible, he really wanted to take action now and seize the gem to study it carefully.

But as soon as his thoughts arose, Alice pinched his arm gently and shook her head at John.

John understood what Alice meant.

At the moment, this gem is either a fake, or there are still some restrictions on it that have not been unlocked, so it is not suitable to take action now.

John nodded slightly, and then moved his eyes away from the Countess' chest.

Naturally, John's gaze and Alice's little movements couldn't lift the countess's eyes.

But she obviously misunderstood the meaning of John's gaze.

'Sure enough, I am the most beautiful.How could a young man like John Shafiq resist my charm? '

Thinking of this, the Countess showed a strong charm on her face and proudly puffed out her chest.

It's a pity that John didn't cast the same hot and longing gaze as before.

Instead, he asked calmly:

"Are the only guests besides us today are goblins?"

"Yes, Little John."

The countess said in a high voice, "But most of these goblins are from France.

Don't underestimate them!

The goblins in France are not like the goblins in Gringotts in France.

Although they are still just low-level fairies in name, in fact, they have real power.

Their tentacles have spread to the entire French wizarding world.

Even many directors within the Ministry of Magic are their friends.

Through these relationships, they can even influence the decision-making of the Ministry of Magic of the Republic of China.

This is already a big shot.

If we offend them, none of us will have a good life. "

"is it?"

John said calmly, the expression on his face quickly turning cold.

At the same time, John's original approachable temperament is also rapidly changing.

It started to feel cold and oppressive.

This change startled the Countess.

This was the first time she had seen John show such a gesture.

But after being surprised, she immediately became overjoyed again.

In her imagination, John's current temperament was what a true noble should have.

She felt that John might have paid more attention to the goblins after listening to her story, and showed true etiquette.

And this is exactly what she wanted.

As long as John and the goblins act very strong.

Then she can rely on John to suppress the goblins, and also use the goblins' power to suppress John.

Truly a win-win situation!

Thinking of this, the countess' fair skin turned a little red.

"Let's go."

John spoke and took the lead to walk towards the palace hall.

His tone and gesture were as if he was the master here.

Intimidated by John's momentum, the countess responded like a maid, "Oh, oh" twice and followed behind John.

Alice sneered at this scene.

Because a few years ago, this countess was really just a maid in her family!

And today, all of this will be destroyed by them!

Alice squeezed the wand hidden in her sleeves hard, and then followed.

……

Inside the palace hall.

A dozen goblins wearing simple and gorgeous robes were already waiting at the venue.

Around them, there were also a few goblins gathered in suits, who were obviously from Gringotts, the country of Yu.

They seem to respect these compatriots from France, and their attitude can even be described as respectful.

The lighting in the hall is very soft, and the musical instruments in the corner are automatically playing melodious music.

However, none of this can relax the frowning brows of the French goblins.

"I have lost count of how many times this is the banquet she has invited us to!"

A goblin said with a ferocious face, "That bitch! When will you be willing to give us the gems?"

Another goblin who looked quite old shook his wine glass and said:

"Don't worry, we can get it."

"You always say that! But what's the result?"

The young goblin said fiercely, "We gave that bitch so much money, does she have the slightest intention of giving us anything?

I think she just wants to fish for us and keep sucking our blood!

In my opinion, how about we just do it tonight?

Anyway, she will unlock the gem's restrictions by then, and we just need to kill her, then..."

The old goblin glanced at it and interrupted:

"This is the Kingdom of China. The Ministry of Magic of the Kingdom of China can easily discover that this is what we did. When the Ministry of Magic of the Kingdom of China investigates, how are you going to explain it to the elders?"

The young goblin paused after hearing this.

He lowered his head and continued to mutter:

"So what? Anyway, the Ministry of Magic is a bunch of trash!

They can't even see Sirius Black!

And John Shafiq!

The test subject who escaped from St. Brelade turned out to be their hero!

How ridiculous! "

"You don't understand at all!"

The old goblin shook his head and said, "It's not that we can't do it directly, but with just one 'Lopez Gem', the benefits are not big enough for us to risk being held accountable by the Ministry of Magic of the United States."

"Then what kind of benefits do you think are enough!?"

Seeing the angry expression on the young goblin's face, the old goblin smiled contemptuously.

He thought for a moment and then came up with a situation that seemed impossible to him.

"If 'Lopez Jewel' and that John Shafiq appeared at the same time, the benefits would be great enough!"

As soon as these words came out, the young goblin became even angrier.

He also knew that this was almost impossible.

But just when he was about to continue to refute the old goblin, the door to the hall was opened.

John and others walked into the palace hall with their heads held high.

Looking at John's face and the blue gem on the countess's chest, the old goblin was so shocked that he almost didn't even hold the wine glass.

As for the young goblin next to him, his eyes lit up and he subconsciously clenched his paws!

It turned its head to look at the other fairies behind it, suppressed its excitement, lowered its volume, and whispered in a distorted tone:

"Get ready! Get ready!"
