Everyday Players at Hogwarts.

Chapter 559 Castrobus
Krum thought he had gotten used to everything, even to the point of not caring about life and death.

Before Grindelwald came, he was a well-known figure in the school and the favorite student of the annoying Karkaroff.
Everything changed after that demon came.

Because of Krum's clear opposition to Grindelwald's attitude.

He was rejected by those around him and by Karkaroff.

The most embarrassing thing was that it was Grindelwald who spoke up.

This prevented the rejection from evolving into something more sinister.

It turned into ignoring.

Therefore, Krum felt that he had already remained calm even when the world was about to collapse.

But—Danger! Danger! Danger!
Krum's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

He turned to look at the source of the danger.

That's Ron!

She was looking at him with an almost fanatical look.

Some Slytherin students who came over to show their courtesy to him even revealed that Ron had just called out his name loudly because he couldn't see him!

Finished!

Barbie is Q!
Ron really fell in love with him!
For the first time, Krum felt despair.

But fortunately, with the exclamations of people around.

He noticed Ron had averted his eyes.

He and the people around him looked up into the air.

The scene in mid-air changed again.

Now we have arrived at the grassland beside the Black Lake.

The rumbling sound of the earth's crust rolling came from outside and in the air.

The grass rose up, and black soil mixed with stones sloped down to the ground.

A giant redwood emerges from the rise.

A moment later, a bang was heard.

A wooden spiral staircase grows slowly from the center of the tree until it touches the ground.

A slender, wheat-colored hand appeared immediately behind.

The owner of the hand was dressed in a bright green robe.

Long brown hair, oval face, and a pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes.

This is a witch who looks like someone who is not easy to mess with.

Following closely behind him was an old man with white hair and beard.

He looks familiar.

Just like a darker Dumbledore.

He and the students behind him were wearing the same bright green robes.

If you don't look at the order and age, it's almost impossible to tell the difference between students, professors, and principals.

"Is it true that he and Dumbledore have no blood relationship?" Hermione couldn't help asking.

Ryan shook his head, “No, there are so many people in this world who look alike without any blood relationship.

I think I should have introduced him.

Castor Pollach, grandfather of the famous pharmacist Libasho Pollach."

After Castrobuse's people entered the auditorium, they also divided into two columns.

The student went to the second long table next to Slytherin.

That is, between Beauxbatons and Durmstrang.

The old man and the witch both went to the staff table.

The old man sat down next to Snape.

The witch was between Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick.

In response, Professor Flitwick, a short man, almost slipped off a pile of cushions he was sitting on out of surprise.

Dumbledore waved his wand, and the image in the air suddenly disappeared.

He cleared his throat, “I think all of you can’t wait.

There are many questions to ask.

Everyone knows that this competition is different from previous ones. It is no longer a few selected warriors representing the school.

This time each of you will feel involved.

There are three games in total, which will end before May next year.

Each competition is divided into two parts - group and individual competition.

The group competition is for all teachers and students to participate together.

It involves three areas: group potions, war magic, and alchemy.

The principals of the other three schools will present their views later.

And the individual competition is the indispensable warrior in the championship.

The selection will be made by impartial judges recognized by all four of our colleges.

The selection will officially begin after 6 o'clock this Friday.

I hope everyone will participate enthusiastically then." Dumbledore paused and drew out his wand again.

He first tapped lightly, and a long table full of food floated in the air - the place where the picture just played.

The students below and the professors around him all widened their eyes.

They all knew that Dumbledore was about to perform Ravenclaw's secret magic - ghostification - for the first time in front of everyone.

It will turn everything in mid-air into something edible for the ghosts.

The students from other schools next to Slytherin also held their breath.

It seemed like they were informed of the process in advance.

They all looked at Dumbledore, not daring to speak.

Dumbledore above seemed to be under a petrification spell after he created everything in mid-air, and was almost motionless.

But if you look closely, you can see that the wand in his hand is shaking slightly.

After a moment, it began to swing.

But it was as if the entire wand was filled with lead, and Harry could see that veins even appeared on Dumbledore's right hand.

A milky white beam of magic light was emitted from the tip of the wand into the air.
After an unknown amount of time, Dumbledore made the final heavy stroke.

Then, the milky white magic runes floating in the air flew towards the long table in mid-air.

A blinding white light flashed, and a long transparent table with transparent dishes on it appeared in its place.

Ghosts flew out from the surrounding walls.

They no longer have the milky glow they once had.

If you don't look at their translucent bodies, you might even think they are living people.
Dumbledore waved his wand again, and the hall was decorated in an instant.

Large silk banners appeared on the walls, one for each of the Hogwarts houses:
The red background with a golden lion is Gryffindor, the blue background with a bronze eagle is Ravenclaw, the yellow background with a black badger is Hufflepuff, and the green background with a silver python is Slytherin.

Behind the staff desk, the largest banner appeared, with the Hogwarts coat of arms:
A lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake are connected together to surround a big letter H.

“I really want to say sorry for the long wait and just tell you directly – eat!
But obviously, we need to introduce the other three headmasters next." said Dumbledore.

Then, the cool-looking old man next to Dumbledore also stood up.

The sharp-eyed Harry also noticed that he touched Dumbledore directly.

"Hello.

I will be speaking for Headmaster Karkaroff at Durmstrang.

As we all know, our school is best at black magic.

But this is a misunderstanding.

Compared to the dark arts, we are better at dueling and war magic.

I think - those of you who have listened carefully to the school song should be very clear about it.

And war magic is the content of the first group match.

It will start in October.

Every Saturday at 3pm from now on, I will explain war magic to everyone in the auditorium." The old man bowed gracefully to the people around him, then sat down leisurely.

And Harry discovered that he had touched Dumbledore again secretly - or rather openly.

Dumbledore, however, remained calm and showed no reaction at all.

It was as if it wasn't him who was being touched.
