Hogwarts: Harry's Path to Witches

Chapter 86 Ancient Ghost

George's proud look infected everyone.

Angelina also expressed her support: "Ravenclaw's seeker is also a complete third-year newcomer, and he is not as good as Katie!

And they all need to be broken in! And we are a team that has been working together for so long! Although there has been a small rotation of positions, the tacit understanding is still here! "

"That's right, especially since we have such a good new chaser!" Katie also expressed support and patted Harley's shoulder hard.

She recently switched places with Halle.

Then Harley showed everyone the assassin's flexibility and powerful aggression.

She changed angles and attacked from all directions, and even made a long-distance throw directly in the midfield.

Except for those balls that are too far away and give Wood too much reaction time, Wood has not defended more than ten balls within the scoring area so far.

Harley can always stun Wood with her extremely fast speed and flexible movement!

According to her scoring speed, there is absolutely no problem scoring a Golden Snitch score in a single game, which makes Katie feel relieved to switch to the Seeker.

It just so happened that Katie had already wanted to change positions.

"I'm very confident that I can overpower Cho Chang from Ravenclaw and Cedric Diggory from Hufflepuff.

Although Cedric is handsome, I promise I won't show mercy! "Katie assured, patting her chest.

Angelina and Aaliyah burst into giggles.

Angelina smiled and pushed Katie: "Facing that tall, handsome guy, with a strong build and a quiet man, can you promise that you won't show mercy?"

Katie also laughed, and the three senior sisters hugged each other.

The boys were left looking at each other, as if they couldn't understand what they were laughing at.

Harley stood aside holding the broom and sighed.

Youth!

……

This busy and fulfilling life comes just a few days before Halloween.

That night, Gryffindor's resident ghost, Nearly Headless Nick, flew into the common room.

He flew straight to Harry, who was doing homework with Hermione and a few other girls.

"Ahem," Nick coughed twice, as if he wanted to say something, but was waiting for Harley to ask.

Harry raised his head in response: "Hello, dear Sir Nicholas. What can I do for you?"

A smile appeared on Nick's face: "Oh, my dear boy! I would like to take the liberty of interrupting and ask you for a favor."

"Sir Nicholas, please say. If it is within my ability, then I don't mind helping." A smile appeared on Harley's face.

"Ahem, that's it." Nick rubbed his hands, "This year's Halloween will be my 500th death anniversary.

I will hold a party in a relatively spacious underground classroom and invite ghost friends from all over the country.

I would be honored if you could come and attend. Of course, if you are willing to invite other living people, that would be even better!

So can you come and join us? "Said, Nick looked at Harry expectantly.

"Then why did you come to me first?" Harley stared at Nick and asked softly, "There are obviously so many people around."

Nick hovered in mid-air several times, coughing and rubbing his hands, and finally whispered:

"You know, kid. My nickname is Nearly Headless Nick because my head didn't get chopped off.

As a result, for this reason, I applied to join the Headless Hunters team, but was never successful.

They always said that my neck was not broken cleanly and my head and body were not completely separated, so they rejected me.

And you, Harry Potter, you are a celebrity in the wizarding world, with a very high reputation.

If you are willing to go to my 500th death anniversary party and tell other ghosts there that I am very scary, it will greatly increase my popularity.

By then... maybe I'll have a chance to join the Headless Hunters! Sir Patrick Podmore would definitely be referencing this! "

As he said that, Nick stared at Harley pitifully: "Harry, my dear child, this is my lifelong wish!"

Harley played with the quill in her hand and didn't make an immediate decision.

After thinking about it for a while, Harry felt that he should know more information:

"Sir Nicholas, is this a dinner entirely for ghosts?"

"Oh, yes!" Nick nodded vigorously,

“In fact, we have all sorts of spooky events, like a team of headless hunters who come and perform horseback juggling and head polo.”

Several girls around showed interest, but none of them expressed their opinions directly.

Only Lavender gently poked Harry's waist, but Hermione slapped his hand away.

"What about the food at the banquet?" Harley continued to ask calmly.

"Oh, of course I prepared a very rich meal!" Nick proudly adjusted the collar of his clothes.

“I prepared a lot of food that was strong enough to make sure the ghosts could taste it.

For example, cheese that has been fermented for two months, large pieces of rotten steak, and lamb tripe stuffed with maggots..."

Nick's voice suddenly became quieter, as if he had just realized that these things were not suitable for eating by living people.

The expectant expressions on the faces of the girls nearby also disappeared instantly, turning into expressions of disgust and horror.

But Harley instead showed an interested look: "Why do you prepare such food?

I mean, wouldn't it be nice to prepare some really delicious food? After all, ghosts are all transformed from humans. I don’t think your tastes were so unique when you were alive. "

"Oh, my dear boy," Nick shook his head, "you have to know that we are just a group of cowards who dare not go further.

Therefore, there is a clear boundary between us and the living, and we cannot taste the delicious food that the living can eat.

Only this kind of food that is extremely rotten and has a very strong taste can be tasted in a limited way. "

Nick's eyes gradually dimmed, and he also realized that it was unlikely that his invitation would succeed.

What supports him to stay here now is that Harley has not clearly expressed her refusal.

"Actually, it's not that I can't go," Harley rubbed her eyebrows and thought for a while before saying,

"But, dear Sir Nicholas, you have to give me a reason to attract me!"

Nick's eyes lit up instantly, and he hovered in place for a long time, and finally thought of a reason:

"I remember that you like to learn very much. There are many very ancient ghosts who came to my gathering this time, and they possess very interesting knowledge.

If I remember correctly, some ghosts have even been around longer than Professor Binns!

If you're willing to come, I think they wouldn't mind chatting with you. "

Harley's eyes lit up: "Deal! See you on Halloween, Sir Nicholas!"
