Start by logging into the Old Man's Ring at Hogwarts

It's often said that if you're unlucky in your career, you'll be lucky in your love life.

While the first half of this statement doesn't quite fit Cedric, the second half is very apt for him.

Although he wasn't chosen to be a champion at Hogwarts, he was very successful in love.

A few nights ago, when Zicomo went out for a late-night snack, he happened to see Qiu Weiqiang.

That night, Zicomo could see clearly that Cedric and Qiu Zhen...

It's clear that these two have already become a couple, and Harry has nothing to do with it anymore.

Thinking of this, Zicomo glanced at Harry with pity, leaving him completely bewildered.

Harry was about to ask Zicomo why he was looking at him like that.

The Weasleys' owl flew in from outside the hall, catching his attention.

The old owl, with a long, flat package under its paws, plunged headfirst into the oatmeal in front of Harry.

The oatmeal porridge splashed on Harry, while the package hit Ron on the head.

Zicomo reacted quickly, using magic to create a barrier in front of him, thus preventing the water from splashing onto him.

Harry picked up the Weasleys' owl with two fingers and threw it in front of Ron.

He said to Ron, "You really should consider getting a new owl."

Ron nodded in agreement, then swept the owl covered in oatmeal aside.

As Zicomo watched Ron's rude movements, he prayed for the old owl, hoping it could live a few more years at the Weasleys' house.

"So who would send you things at this time?" Harry asked curiously.

Ron looked at the signature on the package and said, "It was sent by my mother."

As Ron spoke, he opened the package in front of him.

Inside was a brown formal robe that looked very much like a dress, and it was full of wrinkles, as if it had been pulled out from the bottom of a trunk.

"She sent me a dress?"

Ron clearly didn't recognize it as a dress.

Harry chuckled from the side, "It suits your eyes quite well. Aha! And a lady's hood too."

As he spoke, Harry pulled a black and white hood from the package, complete with some lace trim.

It was actually something similar to a dress shawl.

"Stop fooling around, Harry."

Ron snatched the hood—or rather, the shawl—from Harry's hands.

He walked up to Ginny and said, "Ginny, this is definitely for you."

Ginny put down her spoon and said, "I'm not wearing it, it's so ugly."

Ron's actions drew laughter from everyone.

Harry, in particular, laughed the loudest.

Ron turned around and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Harry suppressed a laugh, took a card out of his bag, handed it to Ron, and said, "This isn't for Ginny, it's for you."

Ron took the card, which read "For Ron".

Hermione couldn't help but explain to Zicomo, "This is a formal gown, something you wear to a ball. It just looks like your mother used to wear it."

Hermione's words caused another uproar among those around her.

“But why would she send me a formal gown?” Ron asked.

"Of course, it's for the Christmas ball soon."

The little witch couldn't resist her desire to show off and explained to him, "The Christmas ball is a traditional event of the Triwizard Tournament, and it is held on Christmas Eve."

Students in fourth grade and above can invite others to the prom, while students in lower grades can be invited. Ginny is only in third grade, so unless someone invites her to the prom, she won't need a dress at all.

So even without that card, this formal robe would still be yours.

The young wizards around her, after hearing Hermione's explanation, all said they had learned something new.

4.5

Especially those students below the fourth grade, they suddenly have a strong desire to be invited to the upcoming Christmas dance.

Ginny looked at Harry with the same expectant gaze.

She was somewhat eager to be invited by Harry, but was also worried about not having a dress.

However, Harry didn't notice Ginny's gaze; he was currently thinking about how to invite Cho.

As for Ron, he could only accept the formal robe his mother sent him.

Seeing Ron's reluctant expression, Zicomo sighed and chuckled, "I really don't know what you're doing with the magic you learned in your Transfiguration class? If you don't like the style of that robe, can't you just change it yourself?"

Ron slapped his forehead and looked at Harry for help.

It was obvious that he hadn't learned anything in his Transfiguration class, or that he simply didn't have any talent for Transfiguration, otherwise he wouldn't have had that expression.

As his best friend, Harry understood Ron's meaning perfectly well.

Harry sighed and said, "Well, I can help you transform, but you'll have to find the templates and styles yourself."

Although he can help Ron transform, he knows nothing about clothing design.

If we don't give him a template, the clothes he conjures up might be even uglier.

Chapter 214 The World Where Only Harry Had No Dance Partner Was Completed

"Dude! I'll go find a template right away!"

Ron punched Harry on the shoulder, then, forgetting about his meal, turned and ran out of the hall.

I don't know where he's going to find dress templates at this hour.

Zicomo saw Harry turn to look at Cho again. He looked at Cho again, then at Cho again. Zicomo saw Harry turn to look ...

Harry then realized that the Christmas ball was called a ball because it involved dancing.

As for dancing, one could say he was only partially competent, with nine out of ten skills being clear.

Hermione chimed in, "Don't worry too much. I heard that Professor McGonagall will be offering a special course to teach everyone how to dance for the basics."

As Professor McGonagall's student, she was quite well-informed about these kinds of things.

Harry breathed a huge sigh of relief upon hearing this.

Zicomo asked, puzzled, "Then why were you in such a hurry to get me to practice with you before?"

Hermione snorted and said, "Hmph! I like to dance, is that wrong?"

Are you suggesting she say in front of so many people that she just wants to dance a few more dances with her cousin?

Zicomo ruffled Hermione's hair and chuckled, "Okay, whatever you like."

Seeing the two being so affectionate, Harry was so envious that he couldn't eat his breakfast, as if he had choked on dog food.

He suddenly wanted a sweet romance too.

Harry made up his mind that once he learned to dance, he would invite Qiu Yiyi to dance.

It's only because Zicomo didn't know Harry's thoughts that he would have told him, "Kid, you're out of luck now."

Harry clearly didn't know about Qiu Zhuang? (The rest of the text appears to be nonsensical and unrelated.)

He attended Professor McGonagall's dance class with great enthusiasm.

During this time, Ron was daydreaming about the style of his dress and was caught by Professor McGonagall.

So he was fortunate enough to be invited up on stage by Professor McGonagall to demonstrate and dance with her.

Fortunately, he had some talent for dancing and didn't stomp on Professor McGonagall's toes.

After learning to dance, the Hogwarts students began to extend invitations to their crushes.

Then Harry and Ron were confused.

Harry didn't know how to invite Cho...

Harry felt too embarrassed to approach the groups of girls.

As for Ron, he didn't know who to invite.

He did intend to invite Furong, and he did take action.

However, the line of people inviting Fleur stretched from the Gryffindor common room to the Slytherin common room, and Fleur rejected them all.

Fleur personally invited Zicomo to be her dance partner at the Christmas ball, and Ravenclaw's prefect Penelope also extended an invitation to Zicomo.

Unfortunately, they were all rejected by Zicomo, because he had already been chosen by Hermione and Lani before they even invited him.

Yes, Zicomo has two dance partners.

You can't expect Lani to find someone else as her dance partner, can you?
