I swung a sword at Hogwarts
Page 793
The car was getting faster and faster, and Malfoy went from walking to running.
"Ato, you have to be happy. It doesn't matter if you lose the game!"
Malfoy started running, howling as he went.
"Atuo! Atuo!"
"Ato, you have to take care of yourself without me in school!"
"Atuo!"
"Ato, I'll go with you, too, Ato!"
Malfoy chased for several hundred meters.
John saw this touching scene. He looked at Daphne silently and asked, "Why don't you just hang him up?"
Daphne smiled, but her fingers were white as she clenched her wand.
A few minutes later, Malfoy was hanging from a laurel tree on the Greengrass property.
As for why John was at Greengrass's house, it was all thanks to Astoria's help.
As a representative of Greengrass with high emotional intelligence, Astoria has perfectly inherited her mother's ability to control people's minds.
Unfortunately, Daphne inherited Mr. Greengrass's controlled standards.
To help her sister, Astoria told John that she was going to school and asked him to come over.
Although John felt that even if he had to send her off, it should be at King's Cross Station, but at Astoria's repeated insistence, he still came.
And then we witnessed the epic drama of 'Malfoy car chase'.
"I can confirm that Mr. Greengrass is about to step on the accelerator."
John was sure the car was almost flying.
Who made Malfoy run fast?
Today is the first day of school at Hogwarts.
Around October, John will go to Hogwarts as a guest to watch the school league.
Daphne looked very stiff after hanging up Malfoy.
No one knew what was going on, but the house-elf was taken away by Madam Greengrass to Madam Malkin's place to steal the goods.
In the huge manor, only John and Daphne were left.
Daphne nervously twirled the corner of her clothes with her fingers. If she had known John was coming, she would have changed into a beautiful dress.
Daphne is now wearing casual clothes. The loose clothes don't matter whether they fit her or not. She wears whatever is comfortable for her at home.
Not even any perfume!
"Are you hungry?" Daphne said shyly, "I learned a new dish, Indian cuisine."
John's mind popped up Indian food. He said calmly, "I'm not too hungry, but I think Malfoy didn't seem to have eaten."
"Oh, he's not hungry."
Malfoy never thought that he had escaped death by being hung.
John was visiting Greengrass's home. He said curiously, "Come to think of it, this is my first time visiting your home."
The Greengrass family is not much worse than the Malfoy family. The house uses a lot of laurel wood for decoration and has a laurel family emblem.
In the corridors are portraits of many of Greengrass' ancestors.
These people came to the front of the frame one by one and followed the two people.
The portrait muttered, "Hey, I know him."
"We all know that he is my great-granddaughter Daphne Xi..."
"Silence!"
Daphne burst into laughter and cast a silent spell to eliminate the sound of the portrait.
The great-grandfather was yelling there, but no sound came out.
Daphne's sharp eyes swept over the ancestors.
The group of portraits were so frightened that they scattered.
John visited the rooms of the manor with great interest.
"Mr. Greengrass has recently been planning to have you take over the family business," John said as he walked slowly through the manor. "After we officially move into the magical kingdom, I plan to have Greengrass take on the transportation business for wizards to various locations."
Stopping in front of a room, John turned to look at Daphne and said seriously, "That's not an easy thing."
"Not only wizarding business, but also Muggle business, and the need to take care of those ships harvested in the last battle."
Reddish-brown eyes seemed to suck Daphne in, and John said, "That also means it's a very tiring thing."
"how about you?"
Daphne's gray-blue eyes met John's and she asked, "Aren't you tired?"
"Me?" John was stunned and chuckled, "How could that be?"
"I am the Witch King," John took another step, pushed open the door of the room with both hands, and stepped into the sunny hall, "When I take on this responsibility, I can't give up because of myself."
This was the Greengrass family hall, fine utensils and lots of laurel wood and decoration adorning this spacious place.
A huge oil painting depicts this hall.
This place is very bright, so bright that it is almost blinding.
Standing in the sunshine, John said to Daphne, "I'm so glad to have friends around me."
"When I feel tired, I think about all the things I cherish, and how I am working to make them better so that they can enjoy them."
He smiled, causing Daphne to follow him inside involuntarily.
She walked through the shadows, trying her best to get closer to the king who was the center of everyone's attention.
She suddenly found the courage, reached out, and gently grasped John's left hand.
"I only want to follow you, my...king."
Daphne looked at John intently, her loose clothes as elegant as an exquisite black evening gown.
She knelt down and put her left hand close to the corner of her smooth lips.
After a gentle kiss, Daphne raised her bright eyes slightly and revealed a heart-stirring smile.
"As Daphne Greengrass, standing beside John Wick."
It was a picturesque scene, making it hard to tell whether the other side of the painting was real or here outside.
It's like a princess kissing her ring finger to express her eternal love, or like a knight kissing the back of her hand to express his loyalty.
John raised his right hand and slowly approached Daphne.
Daphne's heart was beating fast and she felt dizzy after everything she had done.
Her brain was hot and her body quickly heated up after she realized what was happening.
The white and tender shoulders exposed by the loose clothes turned slightly red, making people want to take a bite.
She closed her eyes and swallowed nervously.
He raised his head so that he was facing John at a forty-five degree angle.
The lips were reluctant and welcoming, waiting.
It's a wonderful feeling when you get close.
She had her eyes closed, but she could still feel it. It was so magical.
The hand fell on the shoulder.
Then, the clothes that revealed the white shoulders were pulled up, and John's voice was heard.
"This dress seems too big. I also know your determination to take over Greengrass."
Daphne opened her eyes and saw John's sincere comment.
She looked down at her clothes, unable to express in words how she wanted to cry.
"I thought we were going to kiss!"
Angry shouting echoed in the hall.
The two looked over.
The painting of the empty hall was filled with the ancestors of the Greengrass family.
They crowded to the front of the frame, beating their chests and stamping their feet, looking extremely disappointed with their friends.
Even Daphne's great-grandfather, who was under a silencing spell, vividly expressed his anger at her through body language.
The Greengrass ancestors were talking at once.
The lobby is chaotic like a market.
The ancestors who had been following the two of them had only summarized one piece of information.
I've been watching for so long, and you let me see this?
They complained collectively, and there was even an old aunt who was obviously not married, who boasted in the family portrait about how many people pursued her in the past. If she had not been unmoved, all the Malfoys would have the surname Greengrass now.
Daphne's face was turning red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this moment, Daphne urgently needed someone who could allow her to vent the anger caused by her shyness.
Obviously, in situations like this, there is usually a role that cannot be missing.
Malfoy rushed into the hall angrily, raised two fingers, and roared: "Two and a half hours! I was hung for two and a half hours!"
Is there no one who wants to save himself?
He shouted loudly in dissatisfaction.
And Daphne slowly turned around.
John looked down at his pocket watch and said, "I'm about to run out of time. Madam Maxime wants me to go to Beauxbatons to fulfill my promise."
After that, John said goodbye to the two of them and stretched out his finger to run across the air portal to open it.
He walked inside and disappeared.
Daphne's ancestors scattered again, but someone still hadn't noticed anything was wrong.
Later, Mr. Greengrass came back from sending his daughter and saw Malfoy standing at Greengrass's door.
He was indifferent and even wanted to laugh.
...
Chapter 801 Beauxbatons Speech
Beauxbatons.
Seremban's alma mater.
One of the three most famous magic schools in Europe along with Hogwarts and Durmstrang.
With John's arrival, the school made full preparations for the opening dinner.
The principal, Ms. Maxime, is nitpicking about the back-to-school dinner.
She took a bite of the potato pancakes made by the house elves, frowned and said, "This obviously doesn't taste like Hogwarts."
The house-elf didn't dare to say no and could only prepare again.
The ingredients are tasted under the golden spoon of Ms. Maxim.
"French bouillabaisse?" Ms. Maxime tasted it and said with satisfaction, "Perfect."
Even the headmistress, who is usually aloof, came to places like the kitchen, and the house elves worked harder.
"Listen, your craftsmanship will be among the most distinguished people in the wizarding world," Madam Maxim said critically, "it must be impeccable!"
