Chapter 8 Christmas Ball (1)

Rowena Ravenclaw swore she would never forget the look on Slytherin's face when she said that, as if someone had poured a bucket of Frog caterpillar slime on his head.

"I wonder why you think so," Slytherin asked, finally exhaling.

"Okay, I won't ask any more, it's best for you to decide as soon as possible, for both of you." Ravenclaw waved his hand, turned around and took out a thick notebook on the shelf, flipped to the middle page, pushed the bottle of clear potion forward, put the book on the table, pointed to some of the lines and said, "Use these spells in order, and when the last spell is cast, if the orange-red Just turning green can stop the bleeding. Actually, I just want to see the effect, you know, there are not many wizards who are bitten by a vampire and can survive until detoxification."

"Okay." Slytherin took the bottle of potion, turned and left the room.

The owner of Malfoy, who is also the organizer of this Christmas banquet, Story Malfoy, has been talking with several "friends" who came to the banquet for almost half an hour.He held up a glass of wine from the waiter's plate with a smirk that was common to all present, and calmly chatted with a few barons who came to chat, his eyes occasionally passing the clear glass engraved wine glass casually, Float to the door.

Lord Salazar Slytherin hadn't shown up yet.And the dance is about to begin.

He remembered that the Duke had promised to appear before the opening dance, and his joy at that time surprised him a little.However, the appearance of the Duke is of great significance to Malfoy.He couldn't help sighing in his heart. Compared with other families, Malfoy's treatment was really much better, almost comparable to those of the Parseltonese families, but it was almost enough.

However, he could do nothing about it. Slytherin, Gaunt, Haynes, Lancerwell and more than a dozen snake-speaking families were intermarried for generations. Almost all the dukes and marquises among wizards in Europe were snake-speakers.The intricacies of their relationship are not something Malfoy can get into.The weakest Rutherwell family has only one earl, and has never married with other ordinary wizarding families. Slytherin is even more unattainable.The only exception is that the pure-blood eldest daughter of a dark elf king married No. 16, the head of Haines Patriarch, whose wife had recently died and had an heir.She committed suicide after the short-lived man died of illness, leaving a poor child who did not live past ten years old, and her father, who was in charge of the wind and rain among the elves, didn't even dare to ask a word.The little bit of Veela blood in my family is not worth mentioning at all. Although I have the title of Marquis, it is useless in the current situation.

Fortunately, he still has some friendship with the Slytherin family. As we all know, Malfoy is one of Slytherin's vassals.And Story Malfoy was officially introduced to Salazar Slytherin, who was only 23 years old at the age of 11, and became his "companion" before he became an adult.He had always believed that the Duke still missed old friendships.

However, in the past few years, Malfoy's situation has not been very good. The Slytherin family lost its previous head and wife in the scuffle seven years ago. Damage to Malfoy.To make matters worse, the Duke seems to be very interested in promoting several minor nobles in recent years. The Black family originally had no titles at all, but now they have assumed the posture of a baron. Forest Academy became the chief.In contrast, it is inevitable to be terrified.Sometimes he really hated that his child was born too early and graduated the year before last, so he couldn't compete with little Blake at all.

The Duke is 24 years old this year, and he is really not sure how long the Duke will miss his old friendship.

His wife hurried over, "Story, I think you are about to give a speech." She turned her head and frowned at the two little nobles, "Gentlemen, if we continue talking, we will miss the ball."

Malfoy smiled, turned and walked towards the stairs, maybe His Excellency the Duke is not coming.he thought so.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today is Christmas and we are here to celebrate..." he was interrupted.

The gentlemen closest to the door and the doorman scrambled to hold the doorknob and open the door of the banquet hall.The rest of the people backed away from the door one after another, making way for a passage with the two vertical crimson patterns on the carpet as a boundary with a tacit understanding.

When the Duke of Slytherin walked through the door, the well-dressed ladies held their skirts and knelt in front, and the men who escorted them stood behind them to the right and bowed.

There was a resounding call from the doorman at the door—"The Duke of Slytherin is here! Miss Hufflepuff is here!"

Slytherin walked into the venue with Hufflepuff on his arm, clapping her hand reassuringly as the roll was called.

Malfoy quickly went up to him and followed behind him, "It's great to see you."

Slytherin looked back at him, smiled knowingly, and said in a volume that could ensure that those people could hear clearly without being too loud, "I've always been happy to see you, my old friend. "

The dance has begun.
