Chapter 766 Evil Nemesis Elena

The rest of the afternoon was uneventful, with no arguments.

In the long-standing proverbs of mankind, there is such a sentence-there are only exhausted oxen, and there is no bad plowed land.

The two newly added courses are not an unbearable burden for the young wizards of Hogwarts. After a brief complaint, the students who gradually accepted the reality soon found their own fun in it.

Needless to say, Mr. Alexei obviously underestimated the gossipy nature of the little wizards.

In less than half a day, the news that Hogwarts is expected to hold joint activities with other magic schools next year has spread to every corner of Hogwarts, and some "Guiding Lights" have added a little detail. Finally, without even the professors' explanations and explanations, the students unearthed and pieced together the "truth of the event" in the library with their own efforts.

Theoretically speaking, any place that teaches magic, regardless of its size, can be called a magic school.

However, just like in the non-magical world, the Ministry of Education of each country will evaluate and grade the qualifications of each university.

In the wizarding world, there is also a similar management organization - the International Federation of Wizards Education Department, a subsidiary department of the International Federation of Wizards, is responsible for supervising magic schools around the world and reviewing whether they have the qualifications of large schools.

To date, a total of eleven long-standing and prestigious wizarding schools, including Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, are registered with the International Confederation of Wizards and Wizards for any wizarding family wishing to find out if there are any accredited wizarding schools in their area. , you can use Owl to send a letter to the Department of Education to inquire, and submit your application for admission independently.

As for the remaining magic schools, they are either unwilling to expose themselves or have insufficient qualifications, so they cannot pass the minimum review standards of the International Federation of Wizards Education Department and can only exist as magic training institutions rather than formal schools.

Based on the information "inadvertently" leaked by Mr. Alexey, the students quickly targeted two schools.

The Beauxbatons Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France and the Kodostoriz School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Russia have indeed jointly organized many inter-school competitions with Hogwarts in history.

By the time we had dinner in the evening, almost everyone was talking about it, except...

"So, what exactly are we hosting next year? Professor Dumbledore?"

Minerva McGonagall turned her head and looked at the old wizard beside her with confusion.

In just one afternoon, at least ten Gryffindor students were trying to get some information from her, but the most important thing was that as the vice-principal of Hogwarts, she had no right to No news!

"One of the versions I heard was the Wizarding School Potions Championship, but unfortunately, as the Potions Professor at Hogwarts, I didn't receive any news either. Maybe we should ask Professor Dumbledore ?”

Severus Snape said with a gloomy expression, his eyes also staying on Dumbledore's face.

Around the fifteenth century, there was such a competition between the four magic schools of Hogwarts, Kodosdoriz, the Institute of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and Wagadu. The winning school would receive a golden crucible - unfortunately , until the end of the last Potions Championship, Hogwarts never won a championship, which is almost a shame in the history of Hogwarts Potions.

"It can't be the Triwizard Tournament, right? With Beauxbatons and Durmstrang?"

Madam Pomfrey, the medical director of the school, frowned and asked worriedly, "If this can be used to build friendships between young wizards from different countries, this is indeed an activity worth trying, but safety is still a big problem after all."

Although the source of the news first came from the "squib mathematics professor" Alexei, for the professors at Hogwarts, the way to obtain the final information is obviously to hear Dumbledore directly. Professor's explanation.

After all, as a "Muggle? Squib", that gentleman's only source of information about magic was Dumbledore.

"Ah this——"

Dumbledore blinked his blue eyes, and the golden goblet he just raised stopped in mid-air.

In fact, he only heard this news from Bai Mao Tuanzi a few weeks ago.

As for most of the communication with the Ministry of Magic and the contact and consultation with several other schools, it is also done by Professor "Oh no Dumbledore". All he needs to do is to wait until the project is finalized and conduct the final review and inspection. Take it one step at a time to see if it needs to be redone, or simply veto it with one vote - this is why he delegates power confidently and boldly.

It's just... Logically speaking, isn't it quite early before the final time? !

"There are many aspects involved in this matter, many of which are still in the discussion stage..."

Dumbledore thought for a moment, weighed his words, and replied rather helplessly.

"As for the specific results, I will give you a unified explanation and explanation after I get the exact answer from the relevant people tonight. Before that, the students' questions will not be answered for the time being-"

Compared with the cooperation between schools that will not start until after Christmas at the earliest, at least in Dumbledore's view, Hogwarts' curriculum reform this year and the performance of the new professors are the most important at the moment. things.

Not to mention, at this time, outside the gate of Hogwarts, the "Hogwarts Academy City" is gradually taking shape; and in the sky above the castle, there is still an absurdly large steel island floating in the sky; In the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets a few kilometers below Hogwarts Castle, there is also a basilisk that may wake up at any time...

After teaching at Hogwarts for most of his life, Albus Dumbledore experienced for the first time the difficulty of the job of headmaster.

And the culprit that caused all this...

Dumbledore thought of this and subconsciously raised his head to look at the long table of Ravenclaw Academy.

As if feeling his gaze, Elena Kaslana suddenly stopped talking to the girls around her, raised her head and quickly looked at Dumbledore, and at the same time smiled and raised a cup filled with juice in her hand. The foot cup bowed slightly.

"Tonight, don't forget-" Elena said silently and slowly.

Looking at the mouth shape of that "black-hearted little cotton-padded jacket", Dumbledore hesitated slightly, and instantly felt a little tightness in his chest, and his head, which had been slightly swollen and aching due to the questions from the professors around him, hurt a little more.

It’s simply a sin!

Following Elena's prompt, he suddenly remembered that today's highlight had not yet begun.

Ever since the third generation Dark Lord arrived at Hogwarts, the first day of school had never been peaceful.

The only consolation is that after a year of growth, Elena Troublemaker Kaslana is no longer limited to causing trouble among Hogwarts students - her wings are strong enough to It shocked most of the European wizarding world.

"Hey, everyone, let me have a good dinner first..."

Dumbledore sighed and looked at the unfinished roasted red snapper in front of him with a melancholy look on his face.

Perhaps it was because he didn't make things difficult for the little guy during this period. After the return of the Hogwarts chef, his meals looked pretty good, not the bland salt-controlled healthy meals last year.

Different from the common pan-fried fish with coarse salt, this fish is seasoned with lemon juice from Ravenclaw House.

This slightly sweet and sour taste of Thai cuisine is very suitable for elderly people like Dumbledore.

The skin of the sea bream grilled by the magic flame is extremely crispy, without any greasy taste from frying. The sea bream meat is soft, tender and juicy. The white fish meat cut into cubes is a little dazzling under the light. Scattered basil leaves and small yellow flowers are dotted on the processed fish. On the surface of the sea bream skin, Nanyang-style spicy sauce is arranged in the shape of a small fish. The sight of it on the corner of the plate makes people want to eat it.

In addition, whether it is the palm sugar shrimp balls as an appetizer, the lemongrass ox tongue roll, or the mango macaron as the dessert, or even the soup that uses ox blood as the stock. , all are first-class exquisite.

Unfortunately, Dumbledore today is no longer the "happy Hogwarts Headmaster" he was a year ago.

Based on his understanding of the white-haired dumpling, the more she behaves well-behaved and the more she enhances the pleasure brought by delicious food in these places, the more exciting things she may ask for or do in the future will be Worry and fear.

However, with Gellert Grindelwald, Newt Scamander, Xenophilius Lovegood... and even Nico Flamel, Paracelsus... these After wizards with huge influence in the magical world gathered around the little devil for various reasons, the current situation was no longer controllable by Dumbledore alone.

The only thing worth celebrating is...

Dumbledore forked the fish with a melancholy look on his face, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, thinking about his future arrangements.

"Fortunately, Tom is here. If there are so many goals, it should be enough for this little girl to struggle for a long time. As for the future, if we arrange a few more large-scale international events every year, we should still be able to delay the handover work... Bar?"

Dumbledore tasted the delicious dinner while looking thoughtfully at the professors on the faculty seats.

As Headmaster of Hogwarts, he had been in the castle for too long.

Perhaps, as Nicolas Flamel suggested a few years ago, he should try to offload his burdens and hand them over to those who come after him, such as Minerva McGonagall and Severus Snape is a very good candidate.

Even if we put aside the knowledge and teaching attitude of these two people, according to Dumbledore's observations in the past year, these two people should be one of the very few teachers in this school who are likely to be able to cure the little girl... Moreover, if If he remembered correctly, these two professors were also involved when he first brought Elena to Hogwarts Castle.

Of course, before that, he first had to accompany Elena to solve a few small historical issues.

Whether from the perspective of the principal of Hogwarts, or from the perspective of the guardian of the magical world, this is a problem that he must solve - to properly deal with those who were scattered in this world because of his temporary soft-heartedness. Evil magic items in the world.
