[Comprehensive] The Journey of the Protagonist

"Long time no see, Dumbledore." As Gellert Grindelwald said, he stepped off the magnificent ship, and when a wooden plank was just placed between the side of the ship and the shore of the lake, he With a wave of the magic wand, it turned into a wide and gorgeous staircase.

That big ship floated up from the bottom of the Black Lake. At first glance, it looked like a ghost ship in myths and legends... Even the portholes were shimmering with dim lights, like ghosts in the eye sockets of skeletons. Will-o'-the-wisp.

When the people who disembarked from the boat got closer, the students waiting on the Hogwarts lawn could see clearly that these guests from another school, Durmstrang, were all big and strong. All wore a sort of shaggy fur cloak, except for the blond man who was greeting Headmaster Dumbledore.He has a thin and handsome face, shoulder-length golden curly hair, a tall figure, and a pure and bright smile. He is wearing a straight black robe that looks like a military uniform, and he is covered with a soft silver-white fur. With a circle of white fine velvet around his neck, he strode over with a graceful demeanor, like a visiting king.

"It seems that it has not been a few months since the Christmas banquet we met last time..." Dumbledore sighed, his azure eyes were sharp under the lens: "How could it be you? The headmaster of Durmstrang Where is Igor Karkaroff?"

"He's sick," Gellert lamented. "Scarlet fever."

He casually fabricated the name of a disease he just remembered: "It's inconvenient to go out, so he entrusted me, as the leader of Durmstrang this time, to lead these outstanding students to Hogwarts to participate in this session. Triwizard Tournament."

Madame Maxime of Beauxbaton, who arrived earlier than them, actually wanted to go to the castle to warm up, but because she had just lifted her right foot, Durmstrang's big ship had just arrived, so she simply Stay here and be greeted by Hogwarts students and teachers.At this time, she asked suspiciously: "Then, who are you?"

Gellert laughed, the old devil in his youth had a willful and wanton magic power, which made it almost difficult for the girls present to take their eyes off him completely.As his eyes flashed, his smile grew wider: "Well, ma'am, maybe you should have heard of Grindelwald... Yes, I am that loser, Gellert Grindelwald!"

Madam Maxim took a deep breath, covered her mouth, and subconsciously took two steps back.

In fact, to talk about today's welcome ceremony, we have to go back to the opening day of the new school year. After the sorting ceremony that night, Dumbledore got up to give a speech as usual.

"Welcome!" Dumbledore stood up, opened his hands, and said loudly: "Welcome to Hogwarts in the new year, I think I should solemnly introduce this Hogwarts to you before everyone enjoys the food." The new professor sitting here, Mr. Remus Lupine!"

Severus Snape had been staring fiercely at the new professor, even though he had gone through countless reincarnations, he still couldn't change his disgust at this moment. He could see the little When Sirius made himself look like he would not be robbed of his reason by anger on the surface, showing a distorted expression, it is still possible now, but this does not mean that Severus Snape can let himself accept the relationship with them calmly. Any one of them is in the same room, and when he was together in Hogwarts, when he thinks about it now, he still feels malicious.

"Professor Lupine will teach you Defense Against the Dark Arts," said Dumbledore, his silver beard gleaming in the candlelight.

The applause came sparsely, as shabby as the new professor's clothes.Lupine didn't pay attention to this sporadic welcome. He kept smiling and looked at Su Xuan, who was sitting at the head of Slytherin. In his eyes that implied expectation, Su Xuan turned his head slightly, and then gently nodded in a thoughtful expression. Applause, for a moment, the long table in Slytherin was full of applause, and even the other houses suddenly became enthusiastic. This abnormal heat made some people look around, not knowing why.

Dumbledore always had a friendly smile on his face. He waited for a moment until the applause disappeared, and then continued slowly: "Here, I regret to tell everyone... this year's Academy Cup Quidditch I'm afraid the race won't be held."

There was an uproar in the hall, Ron saw his two brothers, loyal Quidditch players, George and Fred, opened their mouths in surprise, and stared at Dumbledore, as if they were staring at a poor performer. The clown, with their expressions, Ron said that he had watched it many times in reincarnation, but he still didn't see enough. This gloating mood made him couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips again, and laughed out loud.

Dumbledore continued talking... There was no Mad-Eye Moody who suddenly opened the door, and walked in with a cane as the thunder roared outside.To tell the truth, even though Moody was as much a member of the Order of the Phoenix as he was, Ron couldn't deny that whenever he saw his bright blue prosthetic eye that kept moving up and down and left and right, there was still a kind of A sense of horror.

Dumbledore said with a smile: "Although there is no Quidditch, everyone doesn't need to be so sad..."

There were several feigned loud sobs from below, and someone suddenly laughed.

As if Dumbledore hadn't heard it at all, An Ran said: "In the next month, we at Hogwarts will have the honor to host a grand event that has been suspended for nearly a century - the top three Competition!"

There are too many things that did not develop as they did in the previous reincarnation, Ron thought, not only did Remus Lupine, who came to Hogwarts in the third year, squeeze out the teacher who was supposed to be teaching this year. Gilderoy Lockhart, who arrived a year earlier, even the Triwizard Tournament, which was supposed to be held in the fourth year, was actually brought up this time. I'm afraid this is the one who was at the Malfoy family's Christmas banquet. The blond devil who appeared before, Gellert Grindelwald's strength... The situation became confusing and tense in an instant, but... Ron looked at Sue who had been sitting leisurely at the long Slytherin table. Xuan... just because of the existence of this noble Lord of the Magic Web, it was as if a needle had been fixed in this chaotic situation, making it difficult for him to panic.

Dumbledore tried to use concise language to introduce this event that had been forgotten for a hundred years, and specifically emphasized the danger of the Triwizard Tournament...

"Because there are too many deaths..." Dumbledore said seriously: "The event had to be interrupted. Although with the efforts of the Department of International Magical Cooperation and the Department of Magical Sports of the Ministry of Magic, they and we have done a lot of work, Try to ensure that the warriors will not encounter life-threatening danger, but..."

Dumbledore looked around the four colleges, lingered on the Weasley twins for a while, and then said meaningfully: "All participating colleges and the Ministry of Magic agreed that an age limit should be set for warriors... I think 17 is a good bet..."

Dumbledore blinked, then smiled and said: "This measure is for the safety of the warriors. Although we have taken precautions as much as possible, students under the sixth and seventh grades are usually difficult to cope with the test of the competition." , even the students from the other two schools that we need to meet at that time will have the same rules... I believe you won't make things difficult for me, will you?"

He sat down and declared the speech over.

The plates and wine glasses in front of everyone were filled with food and drinks in an instant.The auditorium echoed with laughter, words and the clash of knives and forks.Draco leaned over and said softly: "Your Majesty, I heard from my father that his news came from the Minister of Magic, Fudge. It is said that the magic school established by the Muggles has also sent people to contact us. Putting a foot in this game..."

"But it was boycotted by the three schools in the wizarding world." Draco's expression on his face was a bit complicated: "The reason from the wizarding world is that the Muggle school was established too late. There is still no student who has studied at a sufficient age, equivalent to the sixth and seventh grades of Hogwarts...The 17-year-old is not only a measure to avoid the life-threatening measures of young wizards who are not capable enough in the magic school, but also An excuse for rejecting a Muggle school..."

"Draco," Su Xuan said quietly, "Why are you so unconfident?"

Draco Malfoy averted his gaze and lowered his head.

"Draco, you need to know," Su Xuan said lightly, his eyes looked far away, as if watching the net in the dark: "Now is different from before, when magic is not limited to blood , not only to expose it to Muggles, but also to untie all the families of the wizarding world, and strangle you to the shackles of suffocation."

"Pure-blood families are declining day by day..." Su Xuan had an invisible smile on his face: "You should also change your mind, Draco."

"It's different from the upper limit of the magic power set by the blood," Su Xuan said indifferently: "The limit of the magic net is beyond what you can imagine."

"And with the accumulation of thousands of years in the wizarding world, and the treasures handed down from the ancient family through the ages..." Su Xuan sighed, "Are you afraid that you will not be able to catch up with the Muggles who have just started magic education?"

"You have to be aware, Draco." Su Xuan said coldly in his shocked expression: "When you reach a certain height..."

"You alone can be a family!"
