I swung a sword at Hogwarts

Forcing an ugly smile on his face, John said to Trelawney: "Sorry, Professor, I want to ask for a leave."

The class had only started for half an hour when John asked for leave. Trelawney, with a concerned look on her face, approved his leave and gave him 30 extra points for his prediction.

John, who had taken a leave of absence, had a gloomy face. He felt very bad about the prophecy.

"Is it something that happened around me?" Coming to the Black Lake, John tried to calm himself down.

He stared at the lake, and for the first time, he felt panicky.

"It's okay. Equip everyone. It'll be fine."

A stone was thrown into the Black Lake, and a mermaid who popped up was hit by it, and it cursed in the lake.

John gave her a look and the mermaid immediately closed her mouth and dived into the water in fear.

By the time John returned to the castle, word had spread of yet another prophecy of his death.

This time it was more direct than the third grade.

"The warrior's choice makes blood fight, death blooms in the night, and the unquenchable flame takes away the loved one."

Ernie McMillan swallowed and said nervously, "This tells us that the Warriors will die."

Hannah Abbott covered her mouth in shock and asked in horror: "Which warrior will die?"

"I think it's Harry Potter, after all, you know..." Ernie didn't finish his sentence because he saw Harry walking by.

After John felt less sick, he headed to the auditorium.

He was very happy to see Malfoy discussing something, and immediately went up to double the training volume.

He felt that among so many people, the person most likely to get into trouble should be Malfoy. After all, he attracted too much hatred and might even get into trouble while walking on the road.

Chapter 214 Underwater Singing and the Bubble Head Curse

Recently, warriors can be seen walking around with golden eggs in their arms in Hogwarts Castle.

Fleur was distressed. She knew John could uncover the secret, but out of fairness to Cedric, she could only find it herself.

On the way, she thought of various solutions.

The same goes for Cedric, but his knowledge of Hogwarts allows him to unlock the secret of the golden egg more quickly.

As a prefect, he was able to enjoy the most luxurious bathing service in Hogwarts.

While taking a bath, Cedric accidentally dropped the golden egg into the bathtub in the prefect's bathroom.

He dived down to look for it and just happened to hear the singing of the golden egg.

"Look for us where our voices sound,

We cannot sing on the ground.

As you search, consider:

We took away your most precious treasure.

You only have an hour,

To find and regain what we took,

After an hour, all hope is gone,

It is completely gone and will never be seen again. "

Cedric was surprised, and after listening to the song, he surfaced with a head full of bubbles.

He said to himself, "Is this the clue for the second project?"

He hesitated a little, wondering whether he should tell others about this discovery.

"Harry told me about the first project. Although I already knew about it, his kindness made me unable to ignore it."

Cedric thought of Fleur again. As a friend of the Star Club, he and Fleur were on the same front.

One is from the same school, the other is from the same society.

He decided to ask John.

John also knew his confusion, turned the ring on his finger, and chuckled: "Cedric, you have a noble character, and your selfless dedication is admirable."

Cedric blushed a little at the compliment. John continued, "Follow your heart, but don't tell anyone in a hurry. Let them find it themselves. Fleur is a proud person. Maybe she will know in a few days."

After hearing what John said, Cedric suppressed his thoughts.

Time goes by quickly in school.

Seven days have passed in December.

Rain, snow and strong winds were raging over the thousand-year-old castle. The Magical Zoology Class was outdoors, and the students in the pumpkin patch were shivering with cold.

Because Hagrid was busy taking care of the goddess's twelve rune horses recently, he paid less attention to the blasting-tailed skrewt.

This also caused the blasting-tailed skrewts to fight each other, leaving only ten of them.

After the winter comes, the exploding-tailed snails have no intention of hibernating. They store heat in their thick shells, and the liquid on their tails acts as a fire starter.

John stared at the blasting-tailed skrewt, thinking that if he could extract the lighter fluid from its tail, he might be able to create a powerful explosive spell.

As I was thinking this, a beetle flew over to the fence and stopped.

The more John looked at it, the more familiar it seemed. His insight opened up, and he saw that the bug was emitting magical power.

It was Rita Skeeter, whose recent series of articles on the Savior had received unanimous praise. In order to dig out more explosive material, she even came to the school despite Dumbledore's ban.

"Why didn't I realize she was so brave before?" John saw Rita fly behind the hut, and then a woman in a magenta robe came out a moment later.

The iconic crocodile leather handbag was still hanging on his arm, and greed was written in his eyes.

Hagrid also noticed Rita, and asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

"My name is Rita Skeeter, and I'm a reporter for the Daily Prophet." Rita answered, noticing John's gaze, and she gave him a wink, thinking she was beautiful.

John's face darkened and said, "Okay, you're done."

Although Hagrid was a bit honest, he knew that Dumbledore had placed a ban on Rita and didn't want to pay any attention to her.

Of course, it wasn't just the Animagus that enabled Kelita to dig up so much explosive information. She deliberately acted interested in the blasting-tailed skrewt and asked Hagrid questions.

As expected, when Hagrid heard that someone was interested in the blasting-tailed skrewt, as an expert in magical zoology, his face suddenly turned red and he looked excited.

Rita also discovered that Harry was there, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Under the guise of a zoology column, she managed to trick Hagrid into setting a date for the interview on Friday.

Before leaving, Rita said hello to Harry.

Looking towards John, she was about to grin and show her gold teeth to tease the handsome student when she saw John's deep, pressure-filled eyes.

The words disappeared on her lips, and a silver mask appeared in her mind, which immediately scared her so much that she ran away quickly.

John silently suppressed his panic, watched her run away indifferently, and thought to himself: "Given Rita's personality, I'm afraid that Friday's interview will be a trap."

In order to find the explosive point, Rita will do everything she can.

If it were someone else it would be fine, but Hagrid was his friend, and John naturally couldn't just watch Hagrid get cheated.

So he gave the task to Tang Mi, and Tang Mi didn't have to do it himself. He just needed to ask someone to remind Rita. While Hagrid was imprisoned in the Ministry of Magic, Lord Johnny Silverhand had paid a large sum of money to guarantee him.

Rita, who originally thought she could write something good, immediately became discouraged.

...

The second task of the Triwizard Tournament is to search for items underwater for one hour, but how to stay in the water for one hour becomes a problem.

John saw Cedric pop up in the Black Lake and a bubble covered his head.

As expected of a sixth-grade academic master, John even wanted to applaud him.

"Bubble Head Curse, it seems you have found a solution."

Cedric smiled and said, "I'm not proficient enough yet. I need to practice more."

Malfoy didn't run around because the task John assigned to him was to gain hatred from Neville.

Bullying is easy for Malfoy.

For example, Malfoy showed up by the Black Lake with his hair all messed up.

"John, I think that's enough." Malfoy grinned, and the red at the corners of his mouth made him take a breath. "Neville is very irritable now. I just said a few words to him and he beat me up."

"Then you didn't fight back?" John glanced at Malfoy, who said guiltily, "Of course I am equally matched with him."

John looked around suspiciously and saw Heinrich approaching.

Heinrich's pale cheeks couldn't help but twitch slightly. He said, "Draco took Goyle and Crabbe to beat up Neville, and Neville chased him back to the common room."

Good guy.

Is this your evenly matched opponent?

John looked at Malfoy speechlessly. Malfoy said awkwardly, "He took the armor's sword. Goyle, that idiot, ran too slow and was almost hit."

"Is he so angry?" John was stunned. It seemed that he had underestimated Malfoy. This ability to attract hatred was more powerful than all the humiliations he had suffered in the past month.

Even an honest man like Neville could be forced to swing a greatsword. It's a pity that Malfoy didn't become the main tank.

That’s not enough. Using a big sword means Neville is holding back, and that’s not okay!

Thinking of this, John said calmly: "Wait until Neville draws his wand against you one day, then that'll be it."

Malfoy had a bitter face and didn't want to do that.

Why should we all be isolated and face Neville directly by ourselves?

That sword almost disfigured me today.

This caused Pansy to laugh at him.

"Don't worry, you have to believe in your own abilities. I think you will succeed in the next few days." John did not forget to cheer Malfoy up.

In the entire Star Society, he is the only one who has this ability. If not him, who else will take over?

The Star Society is responsible for isolation, while suppression, bullying, ridicule, etc. are all left to Malfoy.

The division of labor is clear.

Cedric dived into the water and emerged an hour later, which meant that his bubble head spell was successful.

Heinrich sees this and recalls the lake at Durmstrang.

"Edgar's family all graduated from Durmstrang. My uncle is two years older than my father. My father often mentioned that my uncle snorkeled in the lake."

John could see that Heinrich looked down on his uncle's choice, but he didn't have much opinion about his uncle.

Moreover, his father and uncle have a very good relationship.

John looked at the setting sun and asked, "What kind of people are your father and uncle?"

Heinrich sat on a large rock, with a barely perceptible nostalgia in his eyes, and said, "My uncle is a natural-born Animagus. Sometimes he would transform into my grandfather to scare people. We have a wine cellar he left behind at home, which contains a lot of good wine."

"My father is the opposite of my uncle. He is like a scholar. He has never followed anyone and likes to drink tea, except for a little wine occasionally."

"He cared more about academic research, and if it weren't for Edgar, he might have been very respected."

"I don't want to be a father. I want to prove to them that the light that Edgar follows can pull Edgar into the light."

Two generations of Dark Lords dragged down Edgar's reputation. They became synonymous with madmen and dark wizards. Although they didn't say it, everyone was alienated from them.

John patted Heinrich on the shoulder and said seriously, "There will be a day when you will be proud of your choice."

There was brilliance and enthusiasm in Heinrich's golden eyes, and he nodded vigorously.

The sun finally sets in the sky, and the light reflected in the golden eyes disappears.

It was time for them to return to the castle.
