The Harry Potter Show Teaser

Chapter 110 Prelude to the Ball

"Mrs. Maxim, is it near here?" Fleur held Gabriel's little hand and asked the tall and tall Mrs. Maxim.

"Well, it's near here." Madam Maxim looked around and looked around. A few days ago, she received an invitation from Nicole May to bring her disciples to a dance party. Following the magic wave on the invitation, They came to a fork in the road, and then they didn't notice anything.

'But this address is really strange. Someone built a new house in the Bois de Boulogne?And the owner's name is Weiss, why is this name so familiar? ' Madame Maxime thought blankly.

"... Excuse me, the guest, did you come here after receiving the invitation from the master?" A mechanical voice without a trace of emotion appeared from the fork in front of them, followed by an alchemy doll in half-length formal attire .

"It's an alchemy doll!" Gabriel said happily, ready to break free from her sister's hand and go take a closer look.

"No!" Fu Rong hurriedly grabbed her sister and softly stopped, then looked at Mrs. Maxim and asked softly, "Teacher?"

Madame Maxime gathered herself together, looked at the puppet that suddenly appeared and said, "Is it Mr. Nicolas's puppet? We are here by invitation." She also waved the invitation card in her hand.

"...No, my current host is not Nicolas, he is a guest just like you. Please also invite this guest to come with me." The blue light in the doll's eyes flickered, and he made an inviting gesture before turning to face the forest walk in.

"..." Madam Maxim frowned and said softly to Fleur: "Take care of Gabriel, and stay vigilant."

"Yes, teacher." Fleur nodded in understanding, then looked at Gabriel, and held her hand tighter.

……

"I thought it was Mr. Nicolas who built a new big house..." Mrs. Maxim stared blankly at the castle that appeared in front of her.

"Wow! What a big castle!...Sister, which one is bigger here compared to Beauxbatons?" Gabriel looked up at the tall towers, tugged Fu Rong's little hand to signal her to squat down, and said softly. She whispered in her ear.

"Hmm...it must be Beauxbaton." Fleur pondered for a while, looked at Madame Maxim who was walking forward, and affirmed to Gabrielle.

"Oh!" Gabriel also glanced at Madam Maxim's back, then turned her head and nodded to her sister.

...the small garden of the castle...

"Huh? That's... Ms. Sprout?" Madam Maxim walked to a garden full of roses and saw a witch wearing a brand-new wizard robe. Unfortunately, her hands were stained by turning the wet plants. A lot of muddy spots.

"Huh?" The witch raised her head and glanced left and right, and immediately saw the tall and tall Madam Maxim. She hesitated and asked tentatively, "You are...Principal Beauxbaton, Madam Maxim?"

"It's me." Madam Maxim responded with a smile and nodded: "Hello, Hufflepuff Head of Hogwarts. It's a great honor for you to come to France, Ms. Sprout."

"Yes, France is a beautiful country." Sprout smiled warmly, and then seeing Madame Maxime looking at her strangely, he couldn't help but raised the jam bottle in his hand and said: "In the castle Need some fairies."

"Eh..." Madam Maxim stared blankly at the jam bottle. There were quite a few fairies in it. Indeed, they had wings of various colors, which looked very beautiful. They kept flying in the bottle.

'But!This is not something that requires a dean to do it himself!And you are also a guest! Madam Maxim's tangled eyebrows trembled a little, not knowing whether to say it or not.

Professor Sprout saw Mrs. Maxim's thoughts, and couldn't help but chuckled and said, "No way, those...'servants' here are a bit...uh...thick hands."

"Oh, hehe, that's right, I need me..." Madame Maxim laughed dryly at the thought of the alchemy puppet leading the way, and was about to say something when a familiar female voice came over: "Pomona, your How's it going? All the little fairies on my side have agreed to come over."

Madam Maxim looked back suspiciously, and said in surprise, "Madam Mary! Why...?"

"Oh! Olim is here!" Mrs. Mary smiled slightly, walked over to look at the vial in Professor Sprout's hand, nodded and said, "Well, it's almost there. I'm so sorry that I asked you to help too. "

"It's okay, it's okay, I found a lot of interesting plants here." Professor Sprout said with a smile, took out a few small crystal bottles, and looked at them with a strange look in his eyes : "This little thing can be said to be extinct outside! I really want to stay here and study it. Maybe there are other interesting plants!"

"Hehe, that shouldn't be a problem. After all, the little guy treats us very respectfully." Mrs. Mary said softly, "There are enough fairies for decoration. Let's go back to the castle. Olim and the two little girls are also there Bar."

"It's my honor." Mrs. Maxim gave a shallow salute and followed.

"...Sister! That's Mrs. Flamel! I've seen her before!" Gabriel woke up from the shock after the few people left, and quickly pulled her sister and whispered.

"Yes, I didn't expect to see Mrs. Mary here." Fu Rong was also in shock and murmured.

"The owner of the castle must be very handsome!" Gabriel said with longing.

"...How did you come to this strange conclusion? Let's go!" Fu Rong angrily pulled her younger sister who was looking forward to, and followed the several important figures who were advancing.

"Definitely!" Gabriel nodded fiercely when she was pulled, speaking with certainty.

...in the castle, Hermione's room...

"Professor McGonagall, this is too expensive, I can't take it." Hermione waved her hands repeatedly as she looked at the 'vintage' gown that Professor McGonagall brought.

"The blue dress you chose can be changed later! Who told you to choose that vintage gown for Wes?" Professor McGonagall frowned and took a step forward with a white lace gown. Refusing to back down: "We only have you at Hogwarts this time, and only you can lead the dance, not someone from France! Mr. Nicole May, he notified me for too short a time, I can't inform Hogwarts too much It is for the honor of Hogwarts! Even in France, there is Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and this is the home of Hogwarts!"

"Minerva! Has Miss Granger changed into it? This is the only vintage gown I can find! Does it fit? The guests are arriving one after another!" Professor Flitwick's voice followed the knock on the door. sounded outside.

"Filius, don't come in yet." Professor McGonagall said to Professor Flitwick outside the door, and continued to say to Hermione: "You can't let us old men and old ladies come on stage to dance the first dance Right? Although there is still Severus..."

Hearing this, Hermione imagined the scene of Wes and Professor Snape leading the dance...

"I'll change!" Hermione immediately interrupted her fantasy, revealing her determination and firmness in her tone, picked up her gown and walked behind the screen.

"Granger, isn't this beautiful." When they went out, Professor Flitwick looked at the shy Hermione who was dressed up and nodded affirmatively, "Come on! Let me do some more magic!" After saying the wand At one point, many bright spots of various colors appeared on Hermione's pure white skirt, flickering; several beautiful and bright roses appeared on the cuffs, lifelike.

"Oh, this is even more perfect! Very beautiful! Filius, what can you do here?" Professor McGonagall asked Hermione to turn around, nodding to see if there was anything missing, then asked Professor Flitwick .

"Hmm..." Professor Flitwick looked up at Hermione, took out a bottle of potion with some embarrassment, and said falteringly: "Severus gave it to him, he said 'Wipe it on, Miss Know-it-all's hair ...' Well, that's pretty much it, although I don't think it matters..."

"Severus! He doesn't even look at his own hair!" Professor McGonagall growled angrily, "Is there anyone who said that about a lady? No wonder he chased...uh, huh..." Saying this, McGonagall The professor immediately stopped talking when he thought of something, took a deep breath, took the potion from Professor Flitwick who was still a little embarrassed, glanced at Hermione's hair that took a long time to get a little tidy, and looked straight at Her eyes said: "You don't have to pay attention to what Severus said, you just need to decide for yourself..."

"Yes! Didn't you see that we didn't say it was messy?" Professor Flitwick answered immediately, but unfortunately, Professor McGonagall rolled his eyes at him fiercely, and then he reacted and added: "This is your style!"

Hermione lowered her head and tugged at the hair hanging by her ears, pointing to the tied bun with some confusion: "Although I don't like my hair being messed up like this, but it's already done like this, it's too troublesome to do it again It's..."

"It's okay, the bun is easy to manage." Professor McGonagall smiled gently: "It's all up to you, Hermione."

"Well... then I'll trouble Professor McGonagall!" Hermione happily took the potion from Professor McGonagall, and turned back to her room.

"Filius!" As soon as Hermione entered the room, Professor McGonagall gave Professor Flitwick a hard look and continued: "Please help me convey it to him! Let him not indulge in the potions room! His Hair needs to be done too!"

"Well... he's already taking care of it, Granger is using something he's experimented with..." Professor Flitwick shrugged and said, "Although I think the one he used is similar to the shampoo used by Potter's previous owner. Almost as effective, but he just doesn't need a ready-made one."

"...Alas." Professor McGonagall sighed again, and walked into the room to help Hermione tidy up.

...a room for practicing spells...

"Old man, professor! What do you think of my trick?" Weiss shook his left arm with his bare upper body and looked at the two old people beside him.

"The power is really good! But how did you do it?" Nicole May looked at the target that had turned into black ashes and affirmed the power of West's magic.

"Describe an alchemy formation on my arm, thanks to the resilience of the beast state, the depiction of the alchemy formation can be completed in one go." Weiss pointed to his arm and said indifferently.

"Nonsense, if you don't work hard, it's a failed alchemy formation. What's the principle?" Nicolas stepped forward and grabbed Weiss's arm, looking left and right.

"Communicate with the fire elements first, and then beat them up..." Weiss scratched his head and said.

"Beating?" Nicolas May didn't understand his words.

"Uh, it's not a real beating, it's just using the remaining prestige of the red-eyed demon king Shabranigud borrowed from my 'Dragon Breaking' to make them obey me...As for why they are obedient..." Weiss continued after thinking for a while : "It should be the relationship between high-level and low-level subordinates, just like the Fire Curse and the Fiendfyre Curse, Fiercefire can burn even flames, or in other words, devour?"

"Let them listen to you, what's next?" Nicole May frowned and thought about it before continuing to ask.

"Store them in this alchemy array, and release them all at once." Weiss pointed to the alchemy array that glowed faintly due to the input of magic power, and said: "The principle is more similar to the alchemy array that gathers natural magic power, that is, it gathers automatically. It's not as fast as that."

"Isn't it just a disguised flame curse?" Nicolas May looked at the alchemy formation, curled her lips and shook her head.

"Well, it should be about the same." Weiss thought for a while and said.

"No, it's completely different." At this time, Dumbledore turned back from the doll that had turned black and gray: "Under the same magic power, the power is completely different, and the purpose is also different."

"Purpose?" Nicole May also leaned over to take a look, and immediately realized: "Isn't it 'burning'? Is it 'burning'?"

"Yes, it was 'burned' at the moment of contact, maybe because it has become the magic over there, or maybe it is because of the fire element." Dumbledore closed his eyes and recalled the scene just now, and then opened his eyes. Looking at Weiss with blue eyes, he said seriously: "Mr. Kabrev, although I told you that in the forest, this magic is still too dangerous, please be careful when using it."

"Yes, Professor Dumbledore, I will definitely pay attention." Seeing such a serious Dumbledore, Weiss couldn't help standing up straight.

"Very well, then Serena," Dumbledore returned to his amiable appearance, and continued, "Do you have to 'absorb' to 'release' this magic?"

"Well... it seems that it is too slow to rely on natural absorption." Weiss thought for a while and affirmed: "Although my own fire magic can also be absorbed, after all, it only absorbs fire elements."

"Then, let's try your upper limit of absorption, from the Fire Curse to the Fiercefire Curse." Dumbledore still said with a smile, but his words made Weiss shiver subconsciously.

"Professor, can I not?" Weiss begged.

"No! You need to know which spells you can ignore and which ones you need to avoid." At this moment, Nicolas shook his head and said, "I agree with Albus's approach."

"Well, don't worry, I will control the magic power." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Okay." Wes said and raised his left arm.

"The flames are raging." Dumbledore waved his wand lightly, and a small flame floated out, dangling towards Wes's left arm, and disappeared with a 'swish' the moment it touched the skin. The alchemy array also flickered automatically.

"Huh? Stop!" Nicole May yelled to stop with a wrinkle. He looked at the alchemy array that was still flickering and said, "Why is it shining? There is no hidden light?"

"Well, no, the alchemy array can't be put down, there is only so much room for the arm." Weiss looked at the arm and said helplessly.

"That's it..." Nicole May frowned and said in thought, "In this way, if you are attacked once, others will not attack you with flames. It seems that it is only useful in melee..."

"No, Nico, you can use battle patterns to cover it up." Dumbledore said indifferently: "Muggles' practice is now called tattoos."

"Oh, yes!" Nicole May nodded and confirmed, "Then let's continue."

…10 minutes later…

"It seems that you are immune to everything except Fiendfire." Nicolas smacked his lips and extinguished Fiendfire.

"Well, it's a good thing that Serena Weiss felt that she had retreated early." Dumbledore continued to say with a smile.

Weiss looked at the two old men who were still studying with a dark face, and couldn't help saying: "Well, I think it's almost time..."

Before Weiss finished speaking, there were footsteps outside the door, and then Professor McGonagall's voice sounded: "Are you ready?" Then she pushed the door open, and the next second she roared It was heard by Mrs. Mary outside the door: "Albus!!! I asked you to take him to change clothes! And! Where's your gown?"
