Chapter 58 - Chapter 198 The Triwizard Tournament, the dinner begins

After listening to Zicomo's words, Hermione nodded thoughtfully. She was recently studying Taoist culture, and she was also exposed to some other oriental cultures.

This behavior of her cousin is probably the famous teacher she learned a few days ago?

She learned from books that this idiom means that no matter what you do, there must be a valid reason, so that even if you do bad things, you can let everyone stand on your side and speak for you.

In other words, Zicomo didn't know what Hermione was thinking. If he knew, he would have to read the book Hermione read.

Let's see who is the great man, so the interpreter is famous for this-idiom?

I'm afraid you haven't done a commentary on "Whisper"?

With the arrival of the two schools, the Hogwarts dinner is about to begin, and the students of Hogwarts have taken their seats.

The other two schools were waiting outside the general hall for their debut.

The students in the hall were eagerly awaiting, and they were a little impatient to know why students from the other two schools were visiting Hogwarts.

Moments later, Dumbledore, who had not been at Hogwarts for a year, appeared on the stage, to the cheers of the little wizards.

Their headmaster is finally back.

Dumbledore raised his hands to signal everyone to be quiet, then said, "Yes, boys, I'm back. But it's not me, the old man, that you should welcome, but another special group of guests."

"As you must have seen outside just now, students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, two wizarding schools, will spend this year with us. As for the reasons, we will talk about it later."

"Now let us give a warm welcome to the lovely ladies from Beauxbatons and their Headmaster, Madame Maxime!"

As Dumbledore's voice fell, the door of the hall was opened, and the female students of Beauxbatons walked in in an orderly manner.

Dressed in delicate pale blue silk robes and a round top hat, they greeted the Hogwarts students with simple dance moves as they walked into the hall.

The first person was Fleur Delacour, whose graceful and graceful movements attracted all the Hogwarts students to stand up and applaud.

Especially the boys, their applause was particularly warm. Ronald looked at Furong with an obsessive look on his face.

In the audience, only Zicomo and Hermione and Lani next to him remained unmoved, and the three of them were still sitting in their own positions.

Lani stared at the food in front of her quietly, thinking about when the dinner would officially start.

Hermione felt that the dance of Beauxbaton's female students was not bad, and she wondered whether she should go to school and dance to her cousin another day.

Zicomo also glanced at Fleur Delacour with interest. While admiring her beauty, he wondered if he should raise a few veelas in the "Zen Garden".

Although their original appearance is not very good-looking, but when they become human women, they are very beautiful.

It's a pity he didn't go to the Quidditch World Cup, otherwise he would have gotten a few from the Bulgarian team.

But thinking of the jealous temper of his little witch, Zicomo still gave up the idea of ​​raising a Veela.

Fleur Delacour, who was walking into the hall, shuddered suddenly, and she seemed to have felt a wave of malice just now.

With a quarter Veela blood, she has a keen sense of intuition.

Fleur glanced around, trying to find out who was malicious to her.

Then she saw the only three Zicomo in the audience who didn't stand up.

The moment she saw Zicomo, Furong was stunned. This was the first time she had seen such a handsome boy.

Although the girl next to her was expressionless, her whole body exuded an air of rejection thousands of miles away.

But Fleur still thinks Zicomo looks better.

One is that she is a girl and she prefers to look at handsome guys, and the other is that Zicomo exudes a temperament that attracts girls.

It was the power of charm that originated from Mikaela, an invisible charm that could not be detected.

Unless it is Zicomo's breath to restrain the whole body, it will continue to linger around Zicomo like body fragrance.

Concentrating the breath of the whole body at all times is equivalent to being invisible for 24 hours. Zicomo naturally cannot do that.

So in a sense, he is the real walking hormone.

The female students of Beauxbatons who followed Fleur noticed the strangeness of their leader and followed her line of sight.

Then one by one all turned into the state of hibiscus.

Fortunately, Madame Maxime who followed behind reminded them that they returned to normal and moved on.

Dumbledore came down from the podium and kissed Madame Maxime.

Since Madame Maxime was so tall, Dumbledore didn't even need to bend over.

Dumbledore returned to the podium after all of Beauxbatons' students had reached their designated positions.

Then he said: "Next, I invite friends from the north, welcome the proud people from Durmstrang, and their principal, Igor Karkaroff.

The team from Durmstrang poured in. They held special scepters and struck the ground to make a sound of gold and iron, accompanied by sparks.

Several students walking in the meeting also turned somersaults and played a few sticks.

This made Zicomo once thought that he had gone to the wrong set, thinking that it was not "Harry Potter", but some Shaolin monk movies.

Karkaroff led Krum at the end.

Although the reaction from the Hogwarts students was not as enthusiastic as when Beauxbatons entered, it did not cool down with the Quidditch star in the presence of Krum.

After the students and principals of both schools had taken their seats, Dumbledore continued.

"I'm sure everyone can't wait to start the dinner, but please allow me to delay you a little more time, I still have something to announce.

"The first is that this year's Quidditch House Cup will no longer be held..."

Before Dumbledore could finish speaking, there was an uproar in the audience.

The little wizards couldn't understand, why cancel their few sports?

"Quiet!"

Dumbledore pressed his hands down in the air, and after waiting for the little wizards to calm down, he continued: "The reason why the Academy Cup is cancelled this year is related to the arrival of the two schools."

"Our school was chosen to host a very prestigious event, the Triwizard Tournament."

"Some people may not know what the Triwizard Tournament is, you can ask the students who know for details later, I will briefly describe it here.

"The Triwizard Tournament is a series of magical competitions between three schools. Each school elects a student representative to participate.""

"Those who are chosen will have to go single-handedly through three extremely difficult hurdles, and whoever wins in the end will receive eternal glory."35

"As for the method of selecting contestants, in order not to delay your meal time, we will discuss it in detail after the dinner is over.

"Now I announce that the dinner begins!""

The voice fell, and the little wizards who couldn't wait for a long time took the food in front of them and stuffed it into their mouths.

Harry also took two bites of food, then asked Zicomo opposite: "What is the Triwizard Tournament?

"The Triwizard Tournament was founded about seven hundred years ago. It is a friendly competition between the three largest magic schools in Europe. It is held every five years, and the three schools take turns.

Zicomo explained: "It is this friendly game that is played relatively large, to test the warriors selected from each country, to test their talent, strength, courage, theory, reasoning ability and ability to overcome danger in magic, etc. 39

"The danger of condensing so many events into a triple hurdle can be imagined. There are casualties in almost every game, and the game has been suspended for centuries.

"Even so, the wizarding world has been trying to restore the game for centuries."

"Now the Department of International Magical Cooperation and the Department of Magical Sports at the Ministry of Magic thinks the time is right and the competition has been rescheduled."

To be honest, Zicomo is a little bit confused about this operation of the Ministry of Magic, they can't even finish the finishing work of the Quidditch World Cup.

Where did you get the courage to move the Triwizard Tournament out?

I really feel that the population of the wizarding world has grown to a certain point, and are you planning to reduce the population burden on the wizarding world?

During the dinner, Beauxbatons' girls frequently looked in Zicomo's direction.

However, they did not come over to chat, but sat in their seats with graceful manners.

It seems that Beauxbatons' management system is still relatively strict.

As for the students of Durmstrang, they had begun to mingle with the students of Hogwarts around them.

It was interesting to wonder what Dumbledore was thinking when he seated the teachers.

He put Karkaroff next to Snape.

The two former Death Eaters looked at each other unpleasantly and greeted each other with a yin and yang tone.

Madame Maxime is explaining to Hagrid how to take care of their house's Pegasus.

Those Pegasus are very delicate and drink only single malt whisky.

Fantastic Beasts are magical, and they can survive only by drinking.

I don't know if it's drunk driving if they pull a car after eating.

Hagrid was fascinated by Madame Maxime, who was a head taller than him, and inadvertently forked the fork in his hand into the hand of Professor Flitwick beside him.

Fortunately, he didn't have a knife in his other hand, otherwise Professor Flitwick would have had an extra wound on his hand.
