I swung a sword at Hogwarts

John shook his head. In fact, someone had asked him about this.

Parvati and Lavender came over but he turned them down.

He had originally planned to go to the Valley of No Breath for Christmas, but was delayed because of the treatment of Neville's parents.

After waking up, Mr. and Mrs. Longbottom were in good condition. Percy brought back a reply, and the couple asked Neville to visit them after the ball.

Presumably, the couple didn't want their son to miss the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament.

John had no appetite for lunch.

Seeing this, Daphne brought out the dragon fruit fried rice she had just learned to make.

John had a complicated expression, but seeing Daphne's expectant expression, he ate it anyway.

Considering how serious Daphne was about learning how to cook, John didn't want to dampen her interest.

"Maybe Daphne also wants to try to make every meal well."

Thinking this, John finished the last bit of rice.

During this holiday, basically all students above grade four stay in school.

So this Christmas was very lively. John stood up and shook his body, and Heinrich rushed to support him.

Daphne's hands froze in the air, and she looked at Heinrich angrily again.

Cunning man!

In this state, it is naturally impossible for John to exercise.

He went to the library and took out some books about magic to read. In order to treat Neville's parents, he created a whole new magic.

Different hearts but the same dream. This magic requires extremely high talent and mental strength to use.

The user can use the dream entry technique to enter the depths of the mind, and can also plant a mark similar to suggestion in the mind.

As the markers germinate, that cue gradually changes a person's behavior.

Even more bizarre than the Imperius Curse.

After all, the Imperius Curse, to put it bluntly, is forced control, and this spell can subtly change a person.

Creating a spell requires a lot of knowledge accumulation. John is holding a book, thinking about how to make the spell more perfect.

Daphne also came to the library. She did not disturb John, but sat quietly aside and took out the Transfiguration homework.

The sound of the quill tip rubbing against the parchment is very helpful for sleeping.

The library was quiet, with few people in it except John and Daphne.

Outside the sun began to set and it was time for dinner.

John got up and left. After waiting at the door for a while, Daphne hurried out with her homework.

He smiled and said, "Let's go together."

Seeing John waiting for her, Daphne smiled.

The two men headed to the auditorium.

At the door of the auditorium, John suddenly stopped and turned to look at Daphne.

Daphne was caught off guard and almost bumped into John. She stopped and looked up. The brown eyes made her heart beat faster.

John said, "Because of something, I have to attend the dance tomorrow."

Daphne's heartbeat quickened as her fingers fiddled with the extra bookmark in the middle of the page. John's words made her pause.

Even if he participated, John's dance partner would not be himself.

When she thought of this, Daphne's expression darkened.

John didn't notice this and asked calmly, "Daphne, do you have a dance partner?"

"no!"

Daphne's mouth spoke faster than her brain, and her heart was pounding after she said it.

She looked at John in disbelief and asked what this was for?

Is it...

"Then I invite you now." John smiled and took a step back.

He bent down and bowed, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand extended as an invitation.

"Miss Daphne, may I have the honor of inviting you to be my dance partner?"

Daphne threw all her personality aside, she stretched out her hand blankly, and her fingertips touched the slender palm.

A slight numbing feeling passed through her fingertips, flowed through her body and into her heart, waking her up.

"It's my pleasure as well, John."

Her smile is like a blooming rose. Daphne's earlobes are pink and there are two red blushes on her cheeks, making her look delicate and charming.

Just as Daphne was immersed in the moment, John looked around and approached Daphne with a guilty conscience.

He looked conflicted, and finally said in an awkward voice: "Actually I don't know how to dance, so can you teach me?"

John's idea was that since he couldn't dance, of course he had to find someone who looked like he could dance.

Daphne is the daughter of the Greengrass family, so she must be a good dancer.

His thoughts were simple, but Daphne's smile became even brighter, and she said with a firm look, "I can practice with you forever!"

In John's eyes, if Daphne held a shield and wore a blue dress, she would be the captain of magic.

...

The Christmas ball was held as scheduled.

After a night of intensive practice, John has mastered some dance steps.

It was a pity for Daphne, as she was accidentally stepped on by John several times.

All the students entering the venue wore gowns. Malfoy wore a black velvet high-necked dress robe, which matched his middle-parted platinum hair style and looked really like the real deal.

Next to him was Astoria Greengrass, who was stunning in a light blue gown.

Heinrich also changed into a dark red suit and combed his black hair back, which made people realize that he was very handsome.

But he had no female companion, and so did Percy, who was wearing a navy blue suit and had his hair combed meticulously, like a second old Barty.

John also saw Daphne. After teaching dancing all night, she went back and took the time to change her clothes and put on some exquisite makeup.

Instead of a blue dress like her sister's, she wore a white slim-fitting long dress with a long skirt trailing behind her. There were sparkling star-like gems on the dress.

Her golden hair was combed like silk and fell long down her back, making her look like a white pearl.

There was a glimmer of surprise in John's eyes.

"Didn't keep you waiting long?"

When Daphne came in front of John, there was still a blush on her face. The dress that Mrs. Greengrass chose for her was a little too gorgeous.

John chuckled and said, "Waiting is for better things, isn't it?"

His outfit was not that complicated, a slim black suit that highlighted his tall figure, which was a head taller than his peers, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, making him look like a prince.

He just stood there with his hand out.

Daphne had rehearsed this in her mind countless times, but at this moment, she couldn't help but feel her heart beating fast.

She took John's arm, and at this moment, all eyes were on them.

Astoria's eyes lit up.

They walked slowly into the ball.

The warriors will come in later, but now, the students will not hesitate to give the two of them a look.

After taking their seats, it was time for the warriors to enter the dance.

The first warrior is somewhat mysterious, like a princess of Beauxbatons.

Furong was still as beautiful as ever, and she changed into a silver-grey satin robe, which looked elegant and perfectly matched with her hair color.

Her dance partner was Roger Davies, a Hogwarts student and Ravenclaw Quidditch Captain.

The second warrior was Cedric, who was handsome beyond words. He was like a sword-wielding guard, carefully reminding his dance partner Qiu Zhang to be careful on the steps.

It seems that he finally got the girl.

The third warrior is Krum, who stands straight and wears a red dress like a prince of the North.

Hermione was wearing flowing lavender-blue robes, her brown hair was pulled back in an elegant bun.

Like Cinderella walking out of the pumpkin carriage in the fairy tale, she is brand new.

John couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Is this Hermione? Where are her teeth?"

Hermione's oversized front teeth became smaller, making her look more beautiful.

He was a little surprised, but then he was relieved.

That’s right, it’s the magical world.

Hermione has a very good foundation, but she usually focuses on studying and doesn't take good care of herself.

After some sprucing up, it's jaw-dropping.

John didn't understand why Hermione was with Krum.

He saw Ron, and next to Ron was Parvati's sister Padma, a very beautiful girl.

But Ron didn't seem to notice this. His eyes were fixed on Hermione and he didn't even notice Padma's tense face.

Finally, everyone's eyes turned to Harry who came in last. His only specialty was smiling. A slightly stiff smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

What a sunny and cheerful boy he is. His dance partner is Parvati, a beautiful Gryffindor girl.

After failing to invite John last time, Parvati received Harry's invitation and simply accepted it.

The four warriors entered the ball and walked to the front of the guest of honor table.

Dumbledore smiled happily. Old Barty attended the ball, and the suit he wore was no longer tight-fitting, but more casual.

Madam Maxime and Karkaroff were there, as were the other professors.

What attracts the most attention is not these professors.

It was the man wearing the silver mask. When the students saw that man, they couldn't help but exclaim.

Johnny Silverhand.

Where no one else could see, John and 'Johnny Silverhand' nodded slightly.

Johnny Silverhand turned his gaze in another direction, his eyes curved under the mask as if he was smiling.

Heinrich, who was standing there, looked pale. This guy actually came over here, and in this way.

Kim Ledisley.

Cunning man.

...

Chapter 220 Absent Ludo and Dancing

At the guest of honor table, Dumbledore was talking to old Barty.

"Where's Ludo?"

Dumbledore looked around and didn't seem to see the lively Ludo Bagman.

Old Batty no longer had the stiff smile he had before. He said, "Ludo has had some problems recently and can't come today."

"Well," Dumbledore said with some regret, "this ball is quite lively today."

"Maybe it will be more lively over there." Old Batty smiled meaningfully.
