Chapter 630 Perhaps, This Is the Price for Completing the Mission!
Early the next morning, the castle was still very lively, and all the little wizards were discussing the wonderful game yesterday with great interest.
This resulted in Ivan hearing people talking about his glorious deeds wherever he went.
Harry, who is also a warrior, has a 180-degree turn in his reputation in school.
No one cared about him cheating in the competition anymore. Everyone put aside their prejudices unanimously. Even students from other colleges would say hello when they met him.
After all, Harry's heroic performance in the game was completely worthy of his status as a warrior!
However, the good mood did not stay with Harry for long, because that afternoon, after the Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall solemnly announced the Yule Ball in class.
“The ball is a tradition of previous Triwizard Tournaments, and it is also an opportunity for us to enhance relationships and have friendly exchanges with foreign guests. All students in fourth grade and above can participate!
As for those younger students, if someone is willing to invite you, you can also participate in this Christmas dance as a dance partner..."
Professor McGonagall's words undoubtedly detonated the already lively atmosphere in the castle and pushed everyone's emotions to another climax!
Words such as choosing a dance partner, attending a dance, and strengthening relationships make boys of the right age start to get excited.
The little witches were also looking forward to the upcoming Christmas ball. Before Professor McGonagall had finished speaking, they were whispering underneath and discussing the ball.
Several daring girls even peeked at the boys in the classroom, especially staying on Ivan for a long time. After being discovered by Ivan, they did not shy away. They smiled and looked at him. He winked.
Ivan was a little overwhelmed by such enthusiasm, shook his head secretly, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, performing too well is not entirely a good thing!
There will always be more unnecessary troubles in life.
Maybe...this is the price that must be paid to complete the task...
Like Ivan, Harry was also troubled by the ball. Especially when he heard Professor McGonagall talking about the warriors having to attend the ball, he almost stood up and retorted.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the Transfiguration classroom and entered the corridor of the castle, Harry immediately started to complain. "Why do warriors have to attend that Christmas ball? I obviously can't dance..."
For Harry, who is shy by nature, inviting a girl to the prom in person is an almost impossible task.
How embarrassing would it be if someone rejected you on the spot?
Just thinking about it made Harry feel a little dizzy.
"I would rather Professor McGonagall let me deal with another fire dragon on Christmas!" Harry said with a headache.
Ivan looked at Harry with a strange expression.
Is this the legendary girl more terrifying than the fire dragon?
But thinking about the upcoming dance, Ivan also hesitated, wondering who it would be better to invite.
While thinking about it, a figure suddenly appeared in Ivan's mind. Just as he was about to turn his head, Hermione's voice came over first.
"Harry, you are the warriors of Hogwarts, why are you worried about this? Even if you do nothing, someone will take the initiative to invite you! You only need to consider who to choose as your dance partner..."
Hermione's tone sounded a little strange. She stepped into the hall, then pursed her lips and pointed forward. "No! Just look at them and you will know!"
Harry looked into the Great Hall doubtfully.
Due to the hosting of the Triwizard Cup competition, the decoration of the auditorium has changed a lot compared to the past. The flags of the three major schools are flying high in the air, and four new hourglasses are placed in conspicuous places. It should look like it's recording game scores.
Durmstrang's warrior Krum was standing not far away, and a group of senior little witches were chattering around him.
Sitting at the Ravenclaw table, Fleur also had a look of helplessness on her face, perhaps because there were always some confused boys who wanted to invite her to the dance.
But in Ivan's opinion, Fleur enjoyed it. Every time someone came to her side, Furong would say a few more words to the other person.
She seems to enjoy this feeling of being sought after...
"Do you want to invite her to the ball?" Hermione asked abruptly when she saw Ivan staring at Fleur.
Ivan shook his head.
At this time, Fleur, who was sitting at the Ravenclaw table, suddenly stood up and said something to the girls next to her, and then walked towards them.
She seemed to be the focus of the audience, and her every move attracted many people's attention. However, Fleur didn't care much about other people's eyes. She walked directly in front of Ivan and asked with interest.
"Hals! You haven't found a dance partner yet, right? How about it? Do you want to attend this year's Christmas ball with me?"
Fleur's bold words shocked everyone present, and some of the little wizards who were obsessed with Fleur felt their hearts were broken.
Ivan didn't expect that Furong would invite him. He and Furong had no interaction these days.
"You are all warriors, you should invite others to the ball!" Hermione couldn't help but interrupt the conversation between the two of them, her face looked a little unhappy, and she stared at Fleur angrily with her brown eyes.
"Really? I didn't see this rule!" Furong said arrogantly.
Although she noticed that Hermione and Ivan were very close in the tent in the lounge yesterday, since the two have not become dance partners yet, she still has a chance. Fleur believes that no one can refuse her charm.
However, Ivan's words were beyond Fleur's expectations, and he refused bluntly. "Sorry, Fleur, I already have someone I want to invite, so I can't agree to your request!"
The smile on Fleur's face suddenly froze, and she looked at Ivan in surprise. For the first time, her invincible charm lost its effect in front of a wizard.
"I think you should leave, Miss Fleur!" Hermione felt a little happy for some reason when she saw Fleur in such embarrassment, but she still said tit-for-tat sarcastically.
"Really? That's such a pity!" Furong glanced at Ivan regretfully, quickly adjusted her mentality, and turned around to leave without any regret.
Just after Fleur left, George, Fred and others who had been watching immediately came up and looked at Ivan as if they were looking at a monster.
"Oh my god, I can't believe you actually rejected her!" George patted Ivan on the shoulder and said in an incredible tone.
"Are we dreaming?" Fred shouted exaggeratedly.
"It's no big deal! Not everyone has to like her!" Hermione looked at the two angrily.
(PS: It is difficult to write the love line. I updated one today, and now I owe two updates. I will definitely make up for it within this month...)
