Chapter 719 Unity

"Yes, he didn't die, but became a vampire!" said Dumbledore, throwing out a big news.

There was a burst of discussion below, and everyone looked at Dumbledore in shock, unable to believe his words.

Cedric actually became a vampire, how could this be possible!

Everyone feels that their brains are not enough, but more shocking news is yet to come.

"Cedric fully embodies the unique qualities of Hufflepuff House. He is a kind and loyal friend, a hard-working student, he advocates fair competition, and is a respectable warrior!" Deng said Bullido continued, "But we can't help but ask, why did such a good person become a vampire? Why did he have to leave his country, leave his family and friends, leave his hometown and start a new life in a new place with a new identity ?”

yeah, why? !

Everyone looked up at Dumbledore, waiting for him to continue.

"Because he was the victim of this unfortunate incident!" Dumbledore stopped and looked at the students below, "This incident was created by Voldemort, he has returned, and he returned with the help of a vampire. To this country!"

There was a nervous murmur in the Great Hall, and everyone stared at Dumbledore in horror and disbelief.

This time the discussions and mutterings lasted for a long time before they gradually fell silent.

"The Ministry of Magic doesn't want me to tell you this," continued Dumbledore. "Some of the parents of my classmates might be shocked by what I did, either because they couldn't believe that Voldemort had really returned, or because they thought I I shouldn't have told you this because you are still young. However, I believe that telling the truth is always better than lying. If we continue to hide the truth, then no one will stand up and fight Voldemort, and the wizarding world will there is no tomorrow!"

At this time, every face in the auditorium was turned towards Dumbledore, and shock and fear were written on every face

There was another whisper. Not everyone could accept Dumbledore's statement of fighting Voldemort. Most of the people around the Slytherin table didn't take it seriously, including Durmstrang. students.

"Speaking of which, I have to mention two more people, Ivan Mason and Harry Potter!"

Many people turned their heads to Ivan and Harry, and then quickly turned back, looking at Dumbledore.

"Ivan and Harry successfully escaped Voldemort's clutches!" Dumbledore said, "The two of them set an example for others. That spirit was shown against Voldemort's majesty. For that, I salute them."

He turned to Ivan and Harry seriously, and many people did the same, and everyone paid respect to Ivan and Harry.

Hearing that the two of them were able to fight Voldemort, most of the students were shocked and admired their courage.

"Although you are still students, even though you can't really go to the battlefield, I hope you can understand that in the face of unprecedented evil, we must unite." Dumbledore continued, "The three years that were forced to end not long ago The Tournament may not have been successful, but its purpose was to enhance and foster mutual understanding within the wizarding community. Given what is happening now, and with Voldemort's return from the dead, that connection is more important than ever."

Dumbledore looked at Madame Maxime and Hagrid, at Fleur, Gabriel and their fellow Beauxbatons.

Finally, he looked at Durmstrang's classmates at the Slytherin table

Krum was not among them, and he is still being treated at St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

Under Dumbledore's gaze, the rest of Durmstrang's students looked nervous, even a little scared. They seemed to think that Dumbledore would say something harsh, especially the one who had just talked to Malfoy. That student seemed even more sneaky.

"Every guest in this Great Hall!" said Dumbledore, his eyes resting on Durmstrang's fellow students. "You are always welcome at Hogwarts if you wish. I say to you all again. Again, in light of Voldemort's return from the dead, we are only as strong as we are united, and as weak as we are divided. Voldemort created conflict and enmity so masterfully that we can only fight it if we demonstrate the same unbreakable friendship and trust. As long as Our goals are the same, our hearts are open, and differences in habits and languages ​​will not be an obstacle."

"I do hope I'm mistaken but I believe we are all facing dark and difficult times. Some of you in the Great Hall have been directly affected by Voldemort's poison, and many families have been torn apart." Dumbledore Slowly said, "We can only succeed in the end if we are united. Please remember today. Please remember the unfortunate things that happened recently. When you have to choose between the right way and the short way in the future, I hope you will do it right. s Choice."

The semester is continuing, and there are still four months before the holiday, but everyone obviously feels something unusual.

Unsurprisingly, Dumbledore's speech caused a great sensation, and it spread rapidly outwards centered on Hogwarts.

On the second day, Hogwarts ushered in a rain of owls, and there were thousands of letters, all of which were letters from the parents of the students.

They all expressed shock at Dumbledore's announcement of Voldemort's return, thinking it was incredible.

Not surprisingly, many people were unwilling to believe Dumbledore's words, thinking he was crazy!

The Ministry of Magic and the Daily Prophet have said nothing about this, nor has there been any evidence that Voldemort has actually returned.

They, like Fudge, thought it was a figment of Dumbledore's imagination and accused him of telling the students about it.

Some parents even threatened to take their children away and let them drop out of Hogwarts.

There are only a few who are willing to believe in Dumbledore, most of them are members of the Order of the Phoenix, such as Shu Neville's grandma.

With the help of Hermione, Ivan has sorted out the article about Voldemort's return, and after getting Dumbledore's approval, it is going to be published in the "Hogwarts Wizarding News". I don't know how many people will buy it.

But Aiwen can't take care of this matter now, there are more important things waiting for him to do!

Counting the time, it's time to meet the mermaid sacrifice.

Aiwen wants to give Ravenclaw's crown to the raven, first improve his own strength, and get the key to Ravenclaw's secret treasure.
