I'm a priest at Hogwarts

Chapter 202 Inexplicable Killing Intent

Under normal circumstances, when a new teacher meets everyone, everyone will applaud, but now, except for Dumbledore, Hagrid, and Orlando, no teacher or student applauds.

Dumbledore and Hagrid clapped their hands a few times, and found that the applause echoed lonely in the silent auditorium, so they put down their hands knowingly.Only Orlando continued to slap his hands as if no one else was there, and the others seemed to be stunned by Moody's strange appearance, and just stared at him intently.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were the first to realize that they were Orlando's staunch friends, and they clapped along with him without even thinking about it. Then all the students realized that they clapped together, and the applause became warm up.

Dumbledore smiled awkwardly at Moody. It wasn't that he was weak, but that there was a monster among the students in this class, and he couldn't handle it!
Moody seemed unaffected by the lukewarm response. He ignored the large pitcher of pumpkin juice in front of him, but reached into his traveling cloak, pulled out a curved decanter, and took a swig.As he raised his arm to drink, his cloak, which had trailed the floor, was pulled up a few inches, and the students in the front row saw a few inches of carved wooden prosthetic leg protruding from under the table, with a claw-shaped foot underneath.

Dumbledore withdrew his awkward smile, cleared his throat and continued, "As I said just now," he said, smiling at the many students in front of him—they were still staring blankly at Mad-Eye Moody .

"Over the next few months we will be honored to host a fantastic event that has not been held in over a century. It is with great pleasure that I report that the Triwizard Tournament will be held this year at Hogwarts."

"Are you kidding?" said Fred Weasley loudly.

The tension that had been hanging over the auditorium ever since Moody walked in was suddenly broken.Almost everyone laughed, and Dumbledore smiled appreciatively.

"I'm not kidding, Mr Weasley," he said, "but since you mentioned joking, I did hear a very funny one about a troll, a hag and a leprechaun, all of them into the same tavern..."

Professor McGonagall cleared his throat loudly.

"Oh, it's probably not the right time to say that... not the right..." said Dumbledore. "Where did I go? Ah, yes, the Triwizard Tournament... Some of you don't know this What is going on in the Tournament, so I hope those who know the situation will forgive me for explaining a little bit here, and I will allow their minds to wander for a while."

"The Triwizard Tournament was created some 700 years ago as a friendly rivalry between the three largest wizarding schools in Europe. The three schools are: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang .Each school selects a warrior, and then three warriors compete in three kinds of magic items. The Triwizard Tournament is held every five years, and the three schools take turns hosting it. Everyone agrees that it is the establishment of young wizards from different countries. A fine form of friendship—but then, too many dead, the Triwizard Tournament was discontinued."

The students all whispered to each other, and the noisy voice covered the sound of wind and rain outside the window.Dumbledore had to raise his voice.

"There have been several attempts to revive the Tournament over the centuries," Dumbledore continued, "but none of them have been successful. However, we at the Ministry of Magic's Department of International Magical Cooperation and the Department of Magical Sports believe that another attempt should be made. The time has come. We have done a lot this summer to make sure that no one of the Warriors lives is in danger."

“In October, the headmasters of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will lead their hand-picked contenders, and the ceremony to select warriors will take place on Halloween. An impartial referee will decide which students are most eligible to compete. Three-strong cup, to win honor for one's own school, and one thousand Galleons for the individual."

After Dumbledore finished speaking, all the teachers and students looked at Orlando, who was at the end of the teacher's seat. With this great god, do we still need to choose a warrior?This is a ruthless man who fought giant monsters bravely in the first grade, killed three adult wizards in the second grade, and wiped out dementors in the third grade. He is a thunder mage with the title of Thunder Star.

"Of course, for some reason, our classmate Orlando Bloom was excluded from the list of warriors. This is also the joint request of Beauxbaton and Durmstrang. After all, he is a recipient of the Order of Merlin. , the youth preparatory representative of the Wizengamot, our Orlando classmate has proved with his strength that he does not need to pass the Triwizard Tournament to prove his status as a warrior."

When he said this, Dumbledore smiled and looked at Orlando and nodded to him.Orlando shrugged and said that he didn't mind. After all, he was determined to be a fairy, so how could he spend his time on this boring game.

Eliminating Orlando, the biggest competitor, the students discussed enthusiastically like chicken blood.

"I'm going," yelled Fred Weasley, leaning on the table, as if he'd be elected as long as Orlando wasn't involved.

It seems that there are quite a few people who want to obtain this honor and wealth. Orlando looked at the noisy crowd and saw their faces glowing and dancing with excitement.

The students fell silent quickly, staring at Dumbledore feverishly, or whispering excitedly to their neighbors.Because Dumbledore spoke again.

"I know you are all eager to win the Triwizard Trophy for Hogwarts," Dumbledore waved his hand to listen to him, "however, the participating schools and the Ministry of Magic agreed that there should be a set of rules for this year's competitors. Age limit. Only students who are over 17 years old, that is, students over 17 years old, are allowed to apply for consideration. This is why I agree with the request of the other two colleges to refuse to allow Orlando students to participate in the election, although the age is right It doesn't mean strength to him, but we think, "—Dumbledore raised his voice slightly, as some of the people who heard him protested angrily, and the Weasley twins suddenly became angry—" This measure is necessary because the Tournament is still a difficult and dangerous event, and no matter how many precautions we take, it is impossible for students under the sixth and seventh grades to deal with it. I will personally guarantee that no one is underage. of students fooled our impartial judges into becoming Hogwarts champions."

His blue eyes lit up meaningfully as he glanced over the rebellious faces of Fred and George. "So, if you're under 17, I beg you not to waste your time applying."

"The Beauxbatons and Durmstrang delegations will be arriving in October and will be with us for the majority of the academic year. I know you will all be well behaved while our foreign guests are here. Warm and friendly, and once a Hogwarts champion is finally chosen, you will support him or her wholeheartedly. Well, it is getting late, and it is very important that you go into class tomorrow morning refreshed and clear-headed. Go to bed! Hurry!"

Dumbledore sat down, and suddenly motioned for Orlando to go over, but he had to walk over when he was about to run away.

"Orlando has good news for you. The Ministry of Magic has passed the joint nomination of Fudge and me. The International Federation of Magic and the Wizengamot have passed your background and investigation, which means that you are already a member of the Wizengamot." You are a youth representative, and a notice will be sent to you in a few days, congratulations."

When Dumbledore said this, Orlando noticed that Moody's hand holding the jug was tight and tight. Although his white eyes could not show any emotional fluctuations, Orlando still felt the powerful soul power. A flash of murderous intent.

Hehe, interesting.Just because I was born in a Muggle family, and I have achieved honor that ordinary people have not achieved, do you want to kill me?I hope you don't mess with me, otherwise I won't care what the original plot destroys and changes the direction of the time axis to cause historical chaos, Orlando muttered to himself.
