Chapter 444: Karkaroff's Backstab

‘I don’t think I can be one. I’ve participated in too many things. I can’t keep it confidential. Besides, participating in the competition…’

Andrew shook his head.

No one would agree. Fudge would force him to not participate.

If he dared to sign up, the other party would dare to suspend him, because even if he didn’t continue to do any effective research, he would be a very useful mascot.

‘I’m burdened by my reputation. Otherwise, I really want to try the elite students. Human Transfiguration has not been used in the battle…’

But now is obviously not the time to think about this.

The key issue now is whether Dumbledore will give a formal reply to the Triwizard Competition during breakfast before leaving school.

But he soon knew the answer.

Because the headmaster appeared.

"I guess you smart people must be thinking whether I will tell you something," Dumbledore appeared in the hall wearing his daily robes, smiling, "but what I want to say is that you guessed right, Principal Igor is not very good at joking, he announced the right result at the wrong time, yes, we are going to resume the competition next year."

The castle was quiet at first, and then all kinds of noises immediately occupied the entire hall.

The Weasley brothers, who had been studying hard all year, stood up with chicken legs in their mouths, "Merlin's beard!"

"But," Dumbledore ignored the students below, his voice suppressed everyone, "The specific selection method and competition content will not be announced until next school year. I can only say that you should think about it carefully during the holidays and then forget it, especially the fifth-year students-maybe we plan to link it with the OWLs exam certificate?"

? ? ?

Andrew was stunned, no, principal, where did you learn this from?

Not only was he stunned, but many fifth-year students were also stunned - if this was linked to the certificate, they still had hope, but Taylor would definitely not be able to do it!

If he didn't come, wouldn't everyone have hope?

"Enjoy your meal, you still have a long journey ahead of you."

Dumbledore nodded, and then left the hall directly.

Andrew changed his expression to confusion in time - when everyone looked at him, he asked at the right time.

"Who can tell me what the Triwizard Tournament is? I just heard about it for the first time today, and it turns out that it's not a joke you guys made?"

While eating, he showed an ignorant expression and asked the person next to him.

The performance was very successful - anyway, many people took the hook set by Dumbledore.

'From this point of view, Taylor really didn't know, so doesn't that mean he really got the OWLs certificate card? '

- The Hogwarts Express left with a bunch of excited students, but there were a lot more students staying in school this year than in previous years - especially the fifth-year students.

Andrew even knew that many people had already packed their suitcases, but they went back to unfold their luggage afterwards.

Andrew always felt that they had changed their goal for the OWLs exam to strive for 100 days and get the title of Warrior.

Probably like this - because when he went to the library now, he could see that it was full as if it was exam week.

'Really, it's more exciting than expected. '

Andrew sighed.

No wonder Dumbledore likes to use it, it turns out that the effect is really good, especially the Weasley couple, who would have thought that not only did they not go home, but they could also go to the library to punch in on time every day!

'This magical world has become too magical, anyway, I can't understand it. '

On the other hand, with Dumbledore's reconfirmation and the affirmation from Beauxbatons, the term Triwizard Tournament has become the hottest term that has surpassed the new law.

The former's popularity has almost been consumed, and only Durmstrang is still making trouble. When the latter appeared, the whole magical world went crazy!

This thing is even more outrageous than the crown - the crown has not appeared for too long, there is no reference for dreaming, but the Triwizard Tournament is different, this thing is real and long-lasting, and it has been brought up for discussion from time to time in the past hundred years.

Who can not have a dream of becoming a warrior?

Especially this kind of competition that is selected every four years really exists!

Anyway, Andrew can find enthusiastic discussions every day when reading the newspaper - even from time to time someone will bring it up to him to explain the meaning of the Triwizard Tournament.

After all, the OWLs exam is just a hypothesis. If it is replaced with other selection conditions, many people think that Andrew can be promoted stably - how can a warrior not understand the meaning of this title!

But today, when Andrew finished his routine exercise, he did not see enthusiastic discussions, but a group of students swearing over there.

"What's wrong?"

Andrew looked at them swearing and went over to ask casually.

"The wizards of Durmstrang can't afford it. They feel they are not sure and say we are cheating!"

"That's right. Everyone knows that cheating is required in the Triwizard Tournament!"

"Yes, cheating is a traditional event in the Triwizard Tournament. Have they forgotten the history of the school?"

? ? ?

What are you doing? It's just a record in history. It's not said so openly!

And - what kind of cheating method is it?

Hasn't it started yet?

Check out the correct version in the 16-9 book forum!

Andrew took the newspaper, glanced at it, and then his face turned bad.

This is not a trick by Durmstrang students at all! It's Karkaroff who backstabbed us!

'It's too much to bring out the competition in advance, and he's targeting us like this? '

There's no doubt that guy wants to get rid of the pressure completely.

The Triwizard Tournament only diverted part of the attention, and that family intends to use confrontation to throw out all the pressure!

The content of the newspaper is very simple - questioning the new professor.

Remus Lupin, an outstanding graduate of Hogwarts, became a professor at Beauxbatons last semester.

And Nina Martin, an outstanding graduate of Beauxbatons, became a professor at Hogwarts last semester.

Anyway, the newspaper of Durmstrang started a discussion yesterday. Are the other two families targeting them?

'It's disgusting. It must be Karkaroff who did it. How can the others not know what's going on? '

Professors have to sign confidentiality agreements when they take office, and so does the headmaster - for example, Karkaroff himself doesn't know how many he has signed.

This rhythm can be brought up, not to mention Karkaroff's appointment, but also the culprit who fueled the flames.

The point is, it's okay to mess with others, Lupin is not familiar with him, but Nina is planning to get support to get things - the dean is trying hard to help, what if there are more twists and turns...

'You forced me to do it, I don't want to use this big killer...'

Andrew was really angry, and the anger that didn't dissipate yesterday began to rise.

'It's just a backstab, everyone can do it, anyway, I really know German. '

'Don't you want to divert attention? I'll help you, let alone divert attention, even putting some pressure on the history of magic is not a problem. '

'Just change your pen name, and absolutely don't reveal that you are involved. I have contributed to British and German magazines, I don't believe there are no gossip lovers! '

'The most important thing is that he is already under a lot of pressure, and he will definitely help! You want to divert, right? Then I'll help you! '

'In addition... just this time, I will never use similar methods and this ultimate magic again! '

Andrew thought so, and his hands didn't stop.
