Chapter 147
It's no wonder that what she takes for granted is actually quite difficult in the eyes of many people, and if she can do it, it is quite an achievement.
However, all along, her only best friend at Hogwarts was Ye Ting. Of course, later Zhang Qiu and Penello were barely two ordinary friends. That is to say, she had the most contact at Hogwarts. The person is Ye Ting. However, for Ye Ting, learning anything is a piece of cake. When everyone is worried about the first grade, he has already started to study. Only students above the third grade can learn. The ancient Rune has arrived, and in the second year, even the professors will be amazed by his achievements in magic.
When staying with such a person, most people will only maintain envy and jealousy, and then look up.
But Hermione wasn't like that. She had always wanted to chase Ye Ting, at least enough to stand by his side. Such a force made her feel that winning the International Wizarding Duel Tournament all the time was not a big deal— - After all, she hasn't won the championship yet.
However, when she heard everyone's cheers and their adoring eyes, she realized that, before she knew it, she had already walked ahead of everyone on the way to catch up with Ye Ting.
Even an adult wizard, there are not many people who can match her.
Finally, after being lost for a while, Hermione gave a deep smile.
In this smile, there is excitement, relief, and gratitude.
She knew that it was the boy she had been chasing and helping her that had brought her to this point.
And she will keep going.
She looked deeply at the crowd around her.
The cheering audience included men, women and children, wizards from all over the world, but a large part of them were young people and women.
Because Hermione was a little girl herself, and she was their pride.
Look at the excited and encouraging eyes of all the people, and listen to the cheers and words of support they shout in various languages - many of which Hermione doesn't understand.
Hermione was really excited, she took a deep breath, and announced loudly.
"Tomorrow's final, I will definitely win the championship!"
Her declaration made the cheers around her even more enthusiastic. At this time, Hermione had become an idol. Many young people present will remember this girl for a lifetime - she is not only young and lovely, but also powerful and beyond. Most adults.
"I think after the game, she can make her debut." Ye Ting complained with a smile, looking at Hermione who was in front of her.
Although he didn't know what "debut" Ye Ting was talking about, the professors could see it, and Ye Ting was quite happy now.
They felt that Ye Ting at this time was actually in the same mood as theirs: it was because they were happy to see their students have achieved something.
"As expected of a talented young man who surpassed Dumbledore." Professor McGonagall said to Professor Flitwick secretly, "At a young age, not only is his own magic level so strong, but even the students he teaches are terrifyingly strong, I think , if I had a duel with Miss Granger, I would be defeated by her just like her opponent just now."
"Isn't it, the young people today are really scary." Professor Flitwick felt the same way.
In the first game the next morning, Hermione's opponent was a man in his thirties with black hair, a wizard from the United States, who was not wearing a traditional wizard's robe, but a The long black trench coat, with a shirt and tie inside, looks well-dressed, handsome and suave, and his demeanor is completely different from those around him.
"My name is Shreve Graves," he introduced himself. "I'm the Magical Security Director of the Magical Congress of the United States of America."
To be Head of Magical Security at his age - the equivalent of the head of the Auror's office at the British Ministry of Magic - is quite a gift indeed.
In a profession like the Auror that tests the level of magic, being able to become the highest Auror of a country at a young age can only prove that he is indeed a very powerful wizard, because only a strong enough level can make him surpass his seniority. Experienced seniors.
Under the stage, Dumbledore suddenly said: "Why do I look familiar to him? Let me think about it, I saw this face when ... dealing with Gellert."
"Gellert?" Professor McGonagall looked at him strangely and suddenly exclaimed, "You mean Gellert Grindelwald!"
"Yes, I think, when Gellert was in America disguised as a wizard named Percival Graves, that's why I remember his face. The Percival Graves At a young age, he was also the head of magical security at the Magical Congress of the United States, and the head of the Magical Law Enforcement Division... This person looks almost exactly like Percival, and should be his direct descendant."
I just heard Shreif continue: "Miss Granger, you are already quite talented at this age and in such a competition. However, the opponents who can reach the semi-finals, they master the The magic is completely unimaginable to you."
"Really?" Hermione curled her lips in dissatisfaction. "So what? With the simplest magic, I can defeat you in a duel, and the next opponent."
"Really," Shreve's serious face suddenly showed a smile, "what a confident girl, you do have all the qualities to be a top Auror, how about you, should you transfer to Ilvermore in the United States? Ninja School of Witchcraft and Magic
Auror, I will treat you as my own student and teach you everything. In the future, you can even take over my mantle and become the Magic Security Director of the Magical Congress of the United States. "
Hearing such an invitation, many audience members in the audience took a deep breath.
This is indeed a very attractive condition, the Graves family is indeed a powerful family in the United States, their ancestor, stiffness Fuji Graves was one of the original twelve American Aurors, and today Shreve Gray With Wes' commitment, coupled with Hermione's talent, she does have a good chance of occupying a high-level position as head of magical security in the future.
However, in the face of such temptation, Hermione just smiled disdainfully: "This is indeed a very good invitation, but, I refuse. Want to be my teacher? You are still far from it! My teacher is even Can beat you without a wand."
"Your teacher?" Shreve was not irritated by Hermione. He thought about it for a moment, and immediately realized: "You mean Mr. Dumbledore? He is indeed a powerful wizard, and I am not as good as him."
"No, it's not Dumbledore." Hermione shook her head, "My teacher is actually the same age as me, but the champion of the mere duel competition is no longer in his eyes, but as a student, I must do it for him. Take this championship trophy."
Although this is true, it seems a little arrogant in the eyes of people who don't know it. Shreve is obviously angry. He thought that Hermione was looking for an excuse to reject him, so he said sternly: "Little girl, don't know how high the sky is. , This world is very big, there are many powerful wizards, blindly arrogant will not end well! Let me teach you a lesson."
Combat is imminent.
Chapter 0208 against Shreve
Hermione finally saw how the top Aurors fought.
Her quick shots and continuous casting are not useless to opponents.
But although her spellcasting speed is very fast, her opponent is not much slower than her.
Shreve Graves is indeed worthy of being a top-notch Auror, and he has worked hard in advance.
After learning before the game that his shot speed was not as fast as the girl in front of him, at the beginning of the battle, he immediately used the Iron Armor Charm.
Hermione quickly used the disarming spell, and immediately followed the stun spell, but as soon as these spells flew in front of Shreif, they seemed to hit some invisible wall and were blocked in front of him.
In this way, the Auror seemed to be wearing a tortoise shell, blocking Hermione's repeated attacks, and he himself stood there still.
After all, Hermione was not experienced enough, and it was the first time she had encountered such a capable opponent, so while she was shooting, she was still thinking about how to break the tortoise shell.
However, when she was stunned for a moment, she was immediately seized by her opponent.
Taking advantage of the slight interruption in Hermione's offensive, Shreve immediately seized the fleeting opportunity and launched a decisive counterattack.
The same disarming spell, stun spell, full-body restraint spell, and petrification spell, these spells shot at Hermione from the tip of Shreve's wand like raindrops.
However, Hermione's absence was only for a short while, and she immediately noticed the change in the situation.
However, in the face of the reversal of offense and defense, Hermione was a little flustered. However, since Ye Ting had taught her strong enough defense skills, she would not be shamefully defeated by the enemy's simple continuous attacks.
Hermione swung her wand like a skilled swordsman wielding a sword against an arrow, deflecting Shreve's spell one by one.
At the same time, she also took a quick step, deftly dodging some missed curses, and counterattacked at the same time.
As a result, her opponents had to attack and defend at the same time.
At this moment, Hermione and Shreve were both shooting at the two gunmen with pistols, but their bullets were much more powerful than ordinary pistols.
From time to time, the magic spell that was picked up or missed hit the ground, causing one small pit after another.
This fierce battle caused the audience to exclaim. This is a really exciting wizard duel!
Although there were only two people on the stage, the spells that kept shooting like raindrops seemed to be a big melee. If an ordinary wizard couldn't even hold on for two seconds in this situation, it would be the two people on the stage. However, it is still easy to fly in the incantation.
