The Rise of the Muggles at Hogwarts

Barty Crouch?

Anthony stood up slowly from the Gryffindor chair and glanced at him rather unexpectedly.

Strictly speaking, this man's entire governing career seems to be even more unlucky than that of his predecessor Fudge. First there was the London incident, then he had to deal with the British government, and there was pressure from pure-blood wizards in the country, and then Godric happened. thing.

Over the past year, he has visibly aged.

There are many wrinkles on his face, and his gray hair is gradually turning white.

Especially those eyes, which were dull and full of exhaustion. It didn't take much to think about it, but he knew that he had definitely stayed up late again in the past few days.

But this also proves from another positive aspect that his political methods are indeed much better than Fudge's.

At least under such circumstances, he was still holding on.

If it were anyone else, he would have stepped down hastily by now.

But today he is...

This was Dumbledore's voice again: "Mr. Filch, please go to the entrance hall to receive our guests. Someone is coming."

After that, he continued to wave his hands, signaling Anthony and the others to come up quickly.

"Is there anyone?" Anthony, who walked side by side to the stage with Hermione, looked curiously outside the auditorium door.

...

It's just like Professor Dumbledore said!A group of people really appeared outside the door...

And he is the last person who should be here.

The leader turned out to be Prince Charles, and behind him was Humphrey with a smile on his face.

Behind him were several members of Parliament whom Anthony did not often see. They were all related to the royal family, or they were former government ministers who had been kicked out.

And as they walked through the courtyard, it was obvious at a glance that the people behind them were reporters.

Anthony even saw Rita Skeeter in the crowd, that annoying reporter.

"Hi! Anthony, is that Prince Charles?" Hermione whispered in his ear.

She had met Charles, but now she was in a daze. After all, who would have thought that the crown prince would appear at Hogwarts?

"Yeah! It's him!" Anthony nodded, and then he had the courage not to look at the scolding look projected by Charles.

"Wow! Crown Prince! What is he doing here?" Ron looked a little surprised. A group of royal family and government officials also appeared at Hogwarts, and the crown prince actually walked up and stood in front of him. Ti Cratchit, the Minister of Magic.

For a moment, he was a little stunned!

"Haha!" Anthony snorted softly. He didn't want to speak because he had already guessed what they were here to do.

But Charles...

Can you please stop looking at him?

I know you want to scold me, but please hold back, okay!

At this time, the little wizards on the four tables were already involved in discussions.

The hall was full of noisy discussions.

Especially the Slytherins were the loudest.Even more so than Gryffindor.

"Quiet!!!"

Dumbledore's voice, which cast a loud voice curse, quickly passed through the entire auditorium, and immediately, the noisy voice disappeared.

After he looked around, his expression softened a lot.

"I think you all know what happened a few days ago."

"About Godric's Hollow, the tragedy in Godric's Town!" he said.

"Now I want to tell you, yes, Voldemort is back!!!"

"what?"

In an instant, the suppressed noisy voice sounded again.

"Voldemort is back?"

"Isn't he dead? Harry Potter defeated him!"

"Tch, how is that possible? Have you ever seen a baby defeat the most powerful dark wizard?" This came from the mouth of a student from Slytherin House.

It also represents the thoughts of some students and even British wizards.

After all, they preferred to believe that it was Dumbledore who defeated Voldemort, a baby, which was indeed a bit hard to accept.

"Then he must be injured!" Another young Gryffindor wizard said forcefully.

"Has he recovered now? Is he ready to start a war again?"

In an instant, except for some fanatical pure-blooded little wizards from Slytherin, all the other little wizards had bitter expressions on their faces.

"Quiet!!!"

Headmaster Dumbledore shouted again.

"I know what you are worried about, but what I want to tell you is that Voldemort's conspiracy did not come true, and he himself was hit hard again and has now fled the UK."

"Now!" After saying that, Dumbledore turned to look at Ron who was closest to him and said: "Mr. Harry Potter, Mr. Ron Weasley on Christmas Eve, December 31st.

In Godric's Hollow, when hundreds of Voldemorts were about to attack thousands of Muggle troops, he stood up and defeated those terrifying creatures with a courageous and fearless spirit.

Stunning Patronus Charm!

Fearless courage.

This is a tenacious and disparate battle.

Their fearless spirit not only saved themselves and the residents of the town, but also thousands of innocent people.

If you put yourself in his shoes, even an adult wizard wouldn't be able to do this.

"Mr. Ron Weasley and Mr. Harry Potter are worthy of being a true Gryffindor. They are brave and selfless. I see in them a spirit of chivalry that even adult wizards do not possess."

"Let's cheer for him."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of cheers erupted from the Gryffindor benches.

Although the little wizard of Gryffindor was still in a trance, when he heard that the wizard of his own college had won the battle, he was like a dynamite igniting a fuse.

With a "boom", applause and cheers instantly filled the entire auditorium.

Among them, especially Percy, George, Fraser, and the members of the Weasley family.They even jumped up.

Fred even wanted to pull out his treasured collection of special fireworks from his pocket and light them up to celebrate.

This scene was quickly stopped by Wood, who had quick eyesight and quick hands.

These two guys were in the auditorium, and their special fireworks had to blow holes in the ceiling.

The professors also applauded, and Hagrid applauded the two little guys with a red face. From time to time, he would wave his fists and cheer a few times.

The violent movement almost knocked over Professor Flitwick beside him.

Professor McGonagall also clapped, but it could be seen from her plain face that she did not feel that this honor was taken lightly. Compared with this, she hoped that these little guys would stop causing trouble.

"After application by the Ministry of Magic and review by the International Federation of Wizards, Mr. Harry Potter is now awarded the Order of Merlin, First Class, and Mr. Ron Weiss is awarded the Order of Merlin, Second Class!"

"Wow!"

The auditorium erupted in exclamation again!

The Order of Merlin, First Class, that's not common.

You know how many books Lockhart blew, and he only got a second-level Order of Merlin.

Most of the first-class medals were awarded posthumously, but when you think about the number of people Harry and the others saved, it seems like this is nothing.

"Okay, now let us invite Ms. Gsilda Marchbain and Mr. Barty Crouch to award them with the Order of Merlin."

"Haha, my brother, have you seen it? That's my brother." Percy was going crazy. He pulled George and the other Weasleys madly, raised his hands and yelled restlessly.

Ginny also cheered happily. Since Ron last semester, he gained a lot of gold galleons from the Acromantula incident. When he went to buy a new wand, he also bought a new robe for Ginny. The relationship skyrocketed.

Don't look at Ron, a kid who was digging and searching on his own. He was not willing to give up a copper coin. George and Fred didn't know how many tricks they used to get some gold out of their younger brother.But a year has passed, and they haven't fooled anyone yet.

But Ginny...

I also put on new clothes and brought new books. From time to time I took out a few gold galleons from my pocket as pocket money, so I knew where Ron's money had gone!

Now Ginny likes Ron the most as her brother...

"Child, you deserve this." Ms. Marchband placed a purple medal engraved with a long sword and a wand into Ron's hand.

"Thank you!" Happiness came too fast, and Ron's little head seemed to be unable to handle such a huge amount of information.

He took the medal mechanically, and subconsciously put it in his pocket.

"We still need to take pictures, little sir." Ms. Marchban said with a smile and pointed at the group of reporters rushing in from the side of the auditorium.

It wasn't until this was that Ron came back to his senses. He looked at Barty Crouch shyly. In his hand was a medal similar in shape to the one in his hand, but with a more exquisite pattern. Green Medal.

Barty Cratchit put the medal on Harry's chest, "Your parents will be proud of you."

He was inexplicably moved, especially when he saw Harry's dark green eyes.

"Thank you." Harry nodded in response, and the smile on his face lowered a bit. If possible, he wished that his parents could appear in the auditorium and share the happiness with him.

"Okay, let's present the award to Mr. Anthony next." Dumbledore waved his hand to signal the little wizards to be quiet, and then said loudly.

"Mr. Anthony Windsor..." He suddenly paused for a moment.

Just when the shadow of silence was formed, the professor continued to speak: "I don't know, your behavior is very, very, very dangerous."

"I hope this is your last adventure."

"I try my best to teach." Anthony stood in front of the stage with an embarrassed look on his face. He was receiving blazing gazes from two directions.One is Professor McGonagall behind him, and the other is Charles beside him!

"Anthony Windsor uncovered Voldemort's conspiracy, saved the residents of Headmaster Godric, and foiled his conspiracy, but Voldemort escaped with serious injuries."

"He may be the most outstanding student in the history of Hogwarts." Dumbledore nodded solemnly.

"For this, Mr. Anthony deserves an Order of Merlin, First Class!"

Another First Class Medal?

The little wizards below were all numb.

Although the applause and cheers continued, everyone seemed to be a little more confused.

Anthony defeated Voldemort?

Is the principal kidding?

This...

But the principal's voice did not end. He continued: "Finally, let us congratulate Ms. Hermione Granger."

"In times of crisis, she was calm and decisive, saving dozens of residents of Godric's town, and assisted Anthony in defeating Voldemort."

"For this, she won a first-class medal of the Order of Merlin!"

...

A first-class medal, another first-class medal.

The Minister of Magic, Barty Crouch, personally brought the green medal to Anthony, and Ms. Marchiban presented the medal to Hermione.

Different from the emotion on his face when he presented the award to Harry, when facing Anthony, the Minister of Magic returned to his usual serious state, even looking at him with eyes full of wariness.

"Uh-sir?" Anthony asked involuntarily.

"I don't know what conspiracy you have!" He suddenly said leisurely, "But I hope you are right."

"What?" Anthony looked at the Minister of Magic in surprise. He actually heard such remarks from a wizard.

What happened recently that made him change so much?

"Go ask your principal!" He was afraid of Anthony's shoulder, then turned around and moved away.

Standing side by side with Ms. Marchban.

Immediately, the reporters below him started shooting photos with a "click, click" sound.

Especially the several Muggle reporters, whose cameras couldn't be used normally at Hogwarts. They could only draw crazy manuscripts in their notebooks, but they didn't need to be very detailed.As long as there is an impression.

After they return, they will ask a professional sketch master to create it.

And just after the medals from the Ministry of Magic were awarded, Prince Charles finally started to move.

He first nodded towards Professor Dumbledore and Minister of Magic Barty Crouch, and then took out a letter from his pocket.

The principal led him to the center of the stage, and the crown prince also tore open the letter and took out the Queen's personal letter.

"By divine providence, the Queen of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, ******, hereby expresses her sincere gratitude to Mr. Harry Potter and Mr. Ron Weasley for saving the British Legion.

Through my understanding of all parties, I have clearly understood the brave and fearless behavior of the two young wizards.

For this purpose, Mr. Harry Potter is made a Garter and Godric a life baronet, and Mr. Ron Weasley is made a Thistle and a life baronet of Autry.

Order to confer Lady Hermione Granger with the Order of the Garter. "

Later, Humphrey, who was beside Charles, slowly took a golden long sword with a ruby ​​inlaid at the end from the hands of a nobleman behind him.

Not surprisingly, this sword should be modeled after the Sword in the Stone...

Anthony's eyebrows twitched.

This guy, your fake Sword in the Stone, it’s okay to be knighted by the real Sword in the Stone.Why don't you have anything to do with me?

Although he has his eye on the title of Duke, who doesn't want such a thing?

It’s so powerful to think about a few more titles!When will he be able to 'Storm is born...' That sounds so domineering!
