Chapter 464 Is the Entertainment Life of Wizards Too Lacking?
While Ivan was thinking about it, on the other side, Harry, who was chatting with Sirius about trivial matters in life, suddenly asked.
"Sirius, the last Quidditch match will be in three days. You will come to watch it then, right?"
"Of course! I'm looking forward to seeing you win the Quidditch Cup, just like your father did back then!" Sirius nodded with certainty.
"My father?" Harry asked curiously. He had seen James Potter's trophy in the trophy room, but he didn't know the details.
"He is the best Quidditch player I have ever seen. If we hadn't been busy dealing with those Death Eaters after graduation, he might have become a player!"
Sirius laughed and said jokingly, then looked at Harry again.
"But I think you will definitely surpass him! I was watching from near the court during the last game, and you flew really well!"
"But I clearly fell from the sky!" Harry looked a little embarrassed when he mentioned what happened that day.
"That's because the Dementors are causing trouble, isn't it? Now you have defeated them! This time you just ride on the Firebolt I gave you and take back the championship!" Sirius patted Harry on the shoulder and said encouragingly .
Thinking of his new broom, Harry gained some confidence and nodded solemnly.
Then, as if Harry remembered something, he turned to look at Ivan and asked. "By the way, Ivan, how are you thinking about it? Are you going to participate in this year's Quidditch match? Wood and the others have been waiting for your reply!"
"Ivan, are you also a Gryffindor Quidditch player?" Sirius was very curious.
Although he gave Ivan a Firebolt before, it was just by the way, because he did not see Ivan on the Quidditch field last time.
"Yes, he played with us last year!" Harry nodded before Ivan could reply.
When it came to Quidditch, Harry became very excited and kept talking to Sirius about how they beat several other major colleges together last school year, and by the way, he mentioned Ivan's amazing flying and pitching skills.
Sirius couldn't believe it when he heard Harry talk about Ivan scoring twenty-five goals in one game, which directly broke the Hogwarts record for the highest goals scored in a single game.
"Our Quidditch captain Wood thinks Ivan can go directly to the national team!" Harry said.
"It seems that I was really right to give you the Firebolt before!" Sirius didn't think Harry had to lie to him. It could only be said that Ivan was really talented.
"My flying level is not as exaggerated as Harry said, it's just a little higher than the average person!" Ivan waved his hand and didn't care about Harry's flattery.
His family knew that his flying talent was actually very bad. When he first took flying lessons in the first grade, he kicked the broom off his hand with his foot.
When he was in second grade, he showed off his prowess on the Quidditch field because he used experience cards to cheat.
But now that his magic control ability has improved a lot, coupled with the actual practice on the court last school year, Ivan feels that even if he doesn't cheat, he should be able to dominate on the court.
Considering that the Firebolt given to him by Sirius had never been used, Ivan hesitated and finally agreed to Harry's request to participate in the Quidditch match.
For some reason Ivan thought of Luna, the little witch who went to the Forbidden Forest to select materials to make handmade signs in order to cheer herself on the field!
Since the other party regards me as her only friend and even made a special sign, then I can't let her down, right?
"Awesome! I guess Wood must be extremely happy! And Malfoy, if he sees you during the game, he will be shocked!"
Ivan's willingness to agree was beyond Harry's expectation, and what followed was a surprise. He felt that with Ivan's participation, winning the Quidditch championship was a sure thing.
Seeing Harry's excited look, Ivan shook his head secretly. He really didn't understand why so many people liked a competitive sport that involves flying to the sky to play ball.
Is it possible that the entertainment life of wizards is too scarce?
Ivan felt that it was very possible that during the time he had just traveled through time, he was very uncomfortable in this magical world without mobile phones and the Internet.
If he hadn't been too young and wanted to learn all kinds of magical magic, he would have been unable to stay and go to the outside world to make money as a Muggle!
Ivan kept complaining in his heart and did not stop speaking. After eating all the candies on the table with everyone, the night gradually dimmed.
Harry's interest was still very high, and he seemed to have endless things to say. He wanted to tell Sirius every impressive thing that had happened since he was a child!
However, when he began to imagine leaving the Dursleys and living with Sirius, he was interrupted by Dumbledore.
"Harry! Did you just say that you planned to say goodbye to the Dursleys and move to Sirius's house this summer?" Dumbledore's expression became very serious.
"Yes! Sirius and I have already discussed it." Harry nodded, not realizing the seriousness of the problem yet, still in fantasy.
"This is not okay, I don't recommend you to do this!" Dumbledore shook his head.
"Why?" Harry asked with a confused look on his face.
Sirius also looked at Dumbledore strangely.
Dumbledore said slowly.
"Do you remember what I told you? Harry!
That night thirteen years ago, in order to protect you from bad luck, your mother used an ancient and powerful magic spell to transform her love for you into protective magic that blended into your skin and protected you until adult! "
"Yes, tell me, it is precisely because of this that Professor Chino was so hurt after touching my palm two years ago." Harry nodded hesitantly, of course he remembered this incident.
"Yes! But there's one thing I didn't tell you!" Dumbledore's eyes under his half-moon glasses stared at him for a while, making Harry feel a little uncomfortable. After a pause, Dumbledore continued.
"For this magic to be effective all the time, you need to meet a prerequisite, that is, you must stay with people who are related to you. This is also the reason why I sent you as a baby to the Dursleys, because they are you. The only relative who is still alive!"
