The Charles Becomes a Wizard

When Ciel and Draco's dancing skills finally reached Sebastian's standards, it was only a few days until Christmas.

Slylint Common Room.

In the corner, Blaise, who was hit on the waist by Pansy's elbow again, moved closer to Ciel and Draco who were playing board games calmly.

"How is it going? Two young masters, what are your plans for Christmas this year? Are you going home?"

"No return."

He was staying at Hogwarts for that damned Yule Ball.

Ciel looked up at Blaise.

"Haven't you asked this before?" Draco said without looking up.

Perhaps due to Pansy's burning gaze on his back, or perhaps out of curiosity, Blaise asked directly, "So, which two charming ladies are lucky enough to receive your invitation?"

These two young masters of Slylint are the favorites for the Christmas ball. They have outstanding looks, excellent grades, high net worth, and extraordinary bearing. Ever since the news that Hogwarts is going to hold a Christmas ball came out, many people in the school have been keeping an eye on them.

The girls didn't necessarily want to develop any emotional relationship with them, but these two people could beat most students based on their looks alone. To receive their invitation would be a recognition of their own charm. Even just dancing an opening dance together would be enough to satisfy the girls' little vanity.

Which teenage girl has not fantasized about dancing with a noble prince and falling in love?

It's just that Charles is cold and Draco is arrogant, and both of them look very difficult to approach, which easily discourages many girls. Even so, there are still many people who want to "encounter" them by chance in various places in the school every day.

But seeing that Christmas was approaching, these two people still did not take any action. Even Pansy, who thought Draco would definitely invite her, was a little panicked.

It's fine for a boy to go to the dance alone, but if a girl goes alone, she will be laughed at by others. How could Pansy, who is proud by nature, let herself become a joke?

That's why she instigated or forced Blaise to go up and ask Draco what he thought.

Hearing Blaise's words, Charles and Draco were stunned for a moment.

"Oh, Merlin's lace suspenders!" Blaise's eyes widened at their reactions. "You..."

He paused and lowered his voice and asked, "You two haven't invited any girls yet, have you?"

Ciel & Draco: ...

The two looked at each other and then looked away at the same time.

Logically speaking, they would not make such a mistake as they have been attending various dinner parties since they were young.

But Sebastian has been tossing them around lately, and their legs hurt whenever they think of the dance. They don't even think about the dance in their free time, so...

"Oh, oh, Merlin's crocheted collar shirt, could it be that... you forgot it?" Blaise was almost shocked by his discovery and jumped up from the ground.

"Well, how, how is that possible?" Draco raised his pointed chin slightly, "It's just a dance partner. As long as I am willing, there will naturally be someone to accompany me to the dance."

"That attitude won't be welcomed by girls." Blaise looked at Draco disapprovingly, and felt the gaze behind him become even hotter, so he asked again. "So, Draco, you already have a target in mind?"

"Of course." Draco stood up slowly, straightened the wrinkles on his robe, and walked towards Pansy. Then, in full view of everyone, he extended his hand to a thin and petite girl with long golden hair.

"Miss Greengrass, may I have the honor of having you as my dancing partner?"

The girl with beautiful blue eyes looked at Draco in disbelief. After hesitating for a moment, she tentatively put her hand in Draco's. She pursed her lips and smiled. There was a small dimple at the corner of her mouth. Even her voice was thin and soft: "Mr. Malfoy, it's my honor."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud "bang" beside the two of them. Everyone looked over and saw Pansy, with a livid face, smashing the book in her hand hard on the table.

She glared at Draco and Astoria Greengrass with her red eyes, her dark pupils full of anger and resentment. She pursed her lips and ran out of the lounge without saying a word.

"Oh, Draco, you know Pansy's feelings for you. She will be sad if you do this." Blaise said to Draco who sat back in his original seat after completing the invitation.

"It's better for everyone if she can face reality sooner." Draco fiddled with the chess pieces on the table and said in a very cold manner. "It's impossible for the two of us to be together. There's no need for her to waste her time on me."

Under the subtle influence of Ciel and Sebastian's tireless encouragement, Draco focused more of his energy on enriching himself and did not have much free time to think about emotional issues.

But Draco was certain that he had never felt anything beyond friendship for Pansy.

The reason why he allowed Pansy to stay with him was just to save some trouble.

But Pansy's behavior has become more and more excessive over the years. Even if Draco talks to a girl for a few more words, she will be dissatisfied. This attitude of treating Draco as her personal property makes Draco feel annoyed.

Due to the friendship of more than ten years and the years of cooperation between the Malfoy and Parkinson families, Draco was not prepared to break off relations with her directly, so this time he was just reminding Pansy. If Pansy still did not know how to restrain herself, then the next time would not be as simple as a slap in the face in public.

Draco's decision to invite Astoria Greengrass was also a matter of careful consideration. The Parkinson family was powerful, and the Greengrass family, as one of the twenty-eight holy families, was equally not to be underestimated. What's more, Astoria Greengrass had an older sister who was of the same grade as them, so there was no need to worry that this girl, who was two grades younger than them, would be bullied by Pansy because of this matter.

She is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Blaise was silent for a moment, and tactfully did not comment too much on Draco's words. Obviously, he was also well aware that many of Pansy's past behaviors had crossed the line.

Blaise turned to look at Charles: "Charles, do you have anyone you would like to invite?"
