Hogwarts: I am the White Lord

Chapter 365: The Tradition of the Tournament

trouble?

What trouble can there be now...

Malfoy is not exaggerating.

Ron and Hermione, who followed out of curiosity, looked at each other and could see the disapproval in each other's eyes.

Before they could say a word, they heard Malfoy lower his voice and say, "Very important information, related to the first game."

"There are too many people here," Malfoy looked around the library, "let's call Cedric and find a quiet room to have a good chat."

Information about the first game, that's pretty important.

The Malfoy family is very powerful, maybe they can really find out some information.

"Wait a minute," Hermione began, "it would be too obvious for the two of you to go looking for Cedric together."

Ron agreed, "Why don't you find an empty classroom and we'll go get Cedric."

"Weasley...are you so kind?"

Ron raised his eyebrows. "We're not helping you, Malfoy. We're helping Harry. We're helping Hogwarts win."

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you two." Harry made a prompt decision to avoid any further quarrel between the two.

"Once you find Cedric, have him meet us in the Muggle Studies classroom."

Several people acted separately, and soon Harry and Malfoy met Cedric in the empty classroom of Muggle Studies.

Harry breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that only Cedric came in and Qiu Zhang was not with him.

"Harry, Malfoy, I heard that you were looking for me. Are you here to discuss the next training issue?"

Malfoy stretched out his wand and cast an ear-blocking charm on the door before turning around and speaking to the two of them.

"I found out what we're going to face in the first game - a dragon!"

"Wha...what?" Cedric almost bit his tongue, "Are you kidding me?!"

Dragon?

Just kidding!

What was the Ministry of Magic thinking, letting some school students deal with the dragon.

I'm really not afraid of problems.

Harry's eyes widened. This answer was beyond his expectation. "Malfoy, how did you know?"

"Don't forget the three points Crouch reminded us last night: courage, cooperation and the most important thing, fire," Malfoy said confidently with his head held high.

"From the moment Crouch mentioned fire, I thought of dragons."

Remember, the only things related to fire could be the environment, dangerous fire magic, or magical animals related to fire.

Considering that Crouch said that the first game was very difficult and that only three people could have a chance of passing it with cooperation, the scope of suspicion was narrowed a lot.

In addition, ever since he wanted to sign up for the tournament, Malfoy had looked up cases from previous tournaments.

He discovered that every previous tournament liked to have warriors face dangerous magical animals, such as Tebo Warthogs, Horned Beasts, Riem Bulls, and Runespoor Snakes.

The most famous of these was the Triwizard Tournament in 1792, when the cockatrice ran rampant and injured three headmasters.

Magical creatures, fire, and the possibility of three people working together to pass the level, these three conditions combined made Malfoy immediately think of dragons.

Listening to Malfoy slowly explaining his reasoning, Harry said uncertainly: "That doesn't mean it's a dragon..."

"No, Harry," Cedric reminded, "there aren't a lot of magical creatures associated with fire."

"The most famous ones are the giant dragon, the fire ash snake, the fire crab, and the fire lizard."

"Among them, the only one that poses a threat to us and that the three of us must work together to deal with is the dragon."

"Malfoy," Cedric said aloud, "Your reasoning is very useful, but we cannot completely abandon the possibility that the flames here refer to dangerous fire magic."

"No!" Malfoy said firmly, "I am sure that the first level we will face is definitely a dragon."

"Why are you so sure?" Cedric showed a puzzled expression.

"My family owns a certain amount of shares in a dragon farm in Romania," Malfoy said softly. "I called my father during the day and asked him to help look up some information."

"My father just replied to me that five dragons were transported away from the dragon farm by dragon trainers a few days ago. According to the records, their destination is Hogwarts."

Good guy!

This is confirmed.

Harry was a little confused. Although he thought he was quite strong, he was not arrogant enough to think he could deal with a monster like a dragon.

You know, Ron's brother Charlie is a dragon tamer, and he has heard Ron tell stories about his brother fighting dragons in the dormitory many times.

To subdue a giant dragon, it usually requires a team of dragon tamers to act at the same time. Isn't it a bit too much to let three of us deal with a giant dragon?

"The dragon is a big trouble that the three of us need to face together." Malfoy said in a serious tone.

"Fortunately, we know this news now. We can make good use of the next three weeks to study how to deal with the dragon."

"I think we can ask the professor directly."

Ask the professor for advice?

"This...is this considered cheating?" Cedric, the good guy, couldn't accept this suggestion for a moment.

"Cheating?" Malfoy shook his head slightly. "How can this be considered cheating? We don't know the specific content of the game."

"We just asked the professor to give us some lessons related to dragons."

"Let's take a step back," Malfoy's tone became meaningful, "Do you think the other four schools won't cheat?"

"My dad said that cheating is an unspoken tradition in the tournament. Before the competition, all schools will try their best to get inside information."

"This morning I saw Madame Maxime of Beauxbatons invite Hagrid over. How long do you think Hagrid can last under her?"

Hagrid...

Harry knew that Hagrid had been in love with Madame Maxime for several years, so this was hard to say.

"Vagardo and Ilvermorny also followed the local customs and made different moves."

"The headmaster of Ilvermorny is hosting dinner, and the professor of Ulgardo has been heading into the Forbidden Forest."

Malfoy continued, "Not to mention the headmaster of Durmstrang, Karkaroff. My father said that guy's character is not very good, and he will definitely do something tricky."

Cedric and Harry looked at each other, and both saw silence in each other's eyes.

Hey!

The adult world is too complicated.

"In that case," Cedric asked aloud, "which professor should we consult? Hagrid or Professor Scamander?"

"No! Although both of them know a lot about magical creatures, neither of them is the most suitable candidate."

Malfoy gestured towards the room they were in.

"We'll go see Professor Swan tomorrow."
