Hp as a badger and a snake

. Kefus took out a white glove from the cloak and threw it out: "Besides, Black's unity is beyond your imagination. "

After receiving the duel, Lestrange returned to seriousness, let go of Cassiopeia's hair, clapped his hands, and said, "I, Daniel Carrero Lestrange, accept your duel."

The two took out their wands, touched each other, and said at the same time: "Duel, life and death!"

The two agreed on the time and place of the duel, and Kefus helped Cassiopeia to leave.Lestrange suddenly said again: "A third grader dares to invite a seventh grader to a duel. I'll let you know what it means to respect a senior." At least he is more bloody than some people." After finishing speaking, he walked away.

When Kefus helped Cassiopeia leave the hall, he saw Riddle in the crowd in the direction Lestrange was looking at, and he couldn't help saying: "Coward!"

Riddle watched them go, moved his lips, but finally said nothing.He seemed calm and didn't care about anything.But no one noticed that blood was already dripping from his clenched fist.

The onlookers slowly dispersed, and the hall returned to calm, as if nothing had happened before, and everyone went to do their own things again, leaving Tom Riddle alone, standing motionless.

23. The distorted prophecy...

The image of the wizard in the past was mostly in a dark basement, wearing a dark and eerie cloak, carrying a dilapidated basket with crystal balls and toads in it, and a weird black cat behind him.Inseparable from the image of a wizard are several great skills of a wizard: potions, curses, dream omens, prophecies...

Today's wizards are more good at spells, and a large number of potions and prescriptions have been lost, and they have become auxiliary tools; curses have become a symbol of powerful dark wizards, and the only curse has a greatly reduced effect; dream omens have basically disappeared; prophecies have also become a minority blood symbol of.The spread of ancient witchcraft makes these even more valuable. If anyone makes a real prophecy, the prophecy will be specially preserved by the Ministry of Magic.

The Trelawney family has the lineage of great prophets, and Hogwarts' prophecy professors are usually served by members of the Trelawney family.But no one seems to believe that Professor Trelawney will make a real prophecy, and more boring girls ask her to play boring love games with Tarot cards.

Professor Trelawney was rarely seen in the halls of the school, and her strong scent of incense usually caused a flurry of panic, making people think that the flu season had arrived early.

During dinner, Professor Trelawney, dressed in a black robe and whose face was almost buried in her hair, suddenly came down from the tower to the hall. Her footsteps were flustered, and only those who were close could hear her whispering: "I need gin, I need gin, gin, wine..."

When passing the long table in Slytherin, Professor Trelawney was suddenly attracted by the candy on the table, she grabbed a handful, jumped up, and shouted in a singing tone: "One is the golden flower on the fruit tree." , and one is an abandoned baby with a tragic life experience. Did the star of Cassiopeia come into the world with the light, or drag the light into the abyss, ah..." While talking, he threw the candy out.

During the protracted "ah", Professor Trelawney seemed to regain her senses. She cleared her throat and calmly walked towards the professor's seat.The candy thrown by her behind her perfectly formed a star map of Cassiopeia.

That night, officials from the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic visited Hogwarts.Principal Armando Dippet received them.

"Principal Dippet, we have detected that a real prophecy was born in Hogwarts, and we have come to you to verify it."

Almost all the people and ghosts in Hogwarts were witnesses to this prophecy. The official of the Department of Mysteries pondered for a while and said, "I think, I have to see Professor Dumbledore."

When Dumbledore arrived, he was puzzled: "Professor Trelawney has a lot of prophecies, what's the problem?"

"This is different. This is a real prophecy, and the Ministry of Magic has related records." The official of the Ministry of Magic said: "Light and darkness, think about the current situation. The Dark Lord Grinwald is very powerful in Germany, and his power is very strong." It may infiltrate into the UK. Although Greenwald once said that he would not interfere with the British wizarding world, if this prophecy..." He thought about it again: "Professor Dumbledore, your origin is related to Cassiopeia Is it related? Or is your future horoscope heading towards Cassiopeia."

"No, my name is Albus, and it has nothing to do with constellations. I was born in the daytime, and I cannot observe the influence of constellations on my birth. As for the direction of the chart, it is not Cassiopeia." Dumbledore replied: "I want to predict Cassiopeia is not me."

The official of the Ministry of Magic looked worried: "If this prophecy comes out, Grinwald is likely to turn his attention to England." He looked at Dumbledore: "If this is the case, Britain will really fall into darkness forever."

Dumbledore smiled: "I know a Cassiopeia (Cassiopeia) at Hogwarts."

Principal Dippet coughed and reminded: "This is not something to be joked about." He looked at the Ministry of Magic officials: "There is a little girl named Cassiopeia Black in the school, who is only less than 14 years old. I think She has nothing to do with the Dark Lord. I think the most urgent task now is to find the corresponding person in the prophecy and prevent Grinwald's power from spreading to Britain. After all, too many people have heard this prophecy, and we can't stop the prophecy from spreading."

Prophecy has little impact on the lives of students.Based on Professor Trelawney's consistent unscrupulous image, the students believed her love tarot cards more than they believed in this prophecy.After all, predictions are not as fun as Tarot cards that predict love.There are only a few naughty Gryffindor boys occasionally, they will imitate the prophecy in high-pitched voices, and then laugh together.

It is a tradition of wizards to name children after constellations and astrology. Although the name Cassiopeia is cumbersome, there are still many people with the same name.During the Ministry of Magic's systematic investigation, all the people whose names were related to Cassiopeia were pulled out and compared with each other with the information, but it seems that no connection to Greenwald was found.

The Ministry of Magic also spent a lot of money to transfer Greenwald's detailed information from Germany, and asked an astrologer to calculate his horoscope for him, and compared the horoscope of the related person with Greenwald's, and found no abnormalities.If the only anomaly is that Greenwald and Dumbledore are far apart, but they are related to each other and affect each other.I couldn't find the predicted Cassiopeia star, and I couldn't find the corresponding place between the prophecy and the reality. It seemed that the real prophecy was just a joke.

Finally, the British Ministry of Magic and the German Ministry of Magic jointly conducted a major investigation, but nothing was found. Even the Dark Lord Greenwald himself intervened in the investigation, but the result was still zero.

The whole investigation finally turned into a farce with everyone's efforts.And because of the influence of the farce, people at the time of the real prophecy not only did not associate themselves with this prophecy, but also did not believe this prophecy at all.Her worries were how to get rid of the prophesied other party, and the impending duel of her brother Kefus.

A real wizard's duel is when two people argue with each other, agree on the time and place, invite witnesses to the scene, and then use the wand as the weapon to decide the final outcome. When the duel cannot be intimate or dies, there will be a substitute Continue to duel.Many wizard duels are not just about throwing in the towel, they are usually endless.

Cassiopeia knew she couldn't help in the duel, she wasn't even qualified as Kefus' second-in-command.The duel was eventually found out by the heads of the Black family and the Lestrange family. In order to maintain the dignity of the family, they were not allowed to interfere. They just agreed that if someone died, they would not seek revenge from the other family. The most outstanding school student in the family is the deputy of the child of his own family, ensuring that he can return victorious in a duel.

Cassiopeia stayed by Kefus' side almost all day, not knowing whether to seek comfort for herself or to support Kefus.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of Kefusi's dormitory. Cassiopeia was so upset that she didn't even ask who it was, and just shouted, "Come in!"

The person who came in was Riddle, and Cassiopeia glared at him, "What are you doing here?"

Kefus looked at Riddle and then at Cassiopeia, and finally said: "Sia, you go back first, I will look for you later."

While leaving aggrieved, Cassiopeia vaguely heard Riddle's deep voice: "I will be your deputy in the duel."

24. On the eve of summer vacation...

The real duel is to avoid the sight of the teachers, the teachers will not allow casualties to happen.The location of the duel was set on a highland deep in the Forbidden Forest, surrounded by flame tulips, it was basically inaccessible.

Before leaving, Kefusi repeatedly told Cassiopeia: "This is a man's business, you don't get involved, and you are not allowed to sneak into the Forbidden Forest." Kefusi even threatened her, saying that if she followed, it would be against him. Don't worry, just curse him for failing in the duel.

What really happened in the Forbidden Forest, except for the parties involved in the duel, no one knew.All I knew was that Kefus and Riddle came back in clean clothes, while Lestrange and Lestrange ran out of the Forbidden Forest in rags until midnight, as if they were followed by some monster.Moreover, Daniel Lestrange has restrained his arrogant attitude since then, and is very respectful to Kefus and Riddle; the other Lestrange who participated in the duel is even more
