Hermione took the badge and went to find Alberta, who was reading in the library.

Alberta is already in the fifth grade, and she will face OWLs this year. Although she has always had good grades, she has inevitably worked hard in the environment where the whole grade is nervous.

"Love, Alberta!" Hermione stopped by Alberta's table a little out of breath, gesturing for her to go out and say.

Mrs. Pince had already looked over, and before she could drive them away, Alberta had no choice but to pull Hermione past her and left the library.

"Tell me, what happened, Hermione?"

Hermione put the badge in her hand in front of Alberta, and said: "Look, I founded the House Elf Rights Promotion Association, this is the badge. I want to invite Alberta to join you."

Alberta stared at the badge for a few seconds, and finally discovered to her frustration that Hermione really wanted to do something for the house-elves and fight for their rights. "Hermione..." She organized her words and said, "Do you... know the origin of house elves?"

Hermione was stunned by her question, and replied, "No, I don't know."

"I thought, since you're going to do something for them, you have to know their history, right? You know, house-elves weren't creatures that existed in the first place, and you've got to know why they were there. I guess, when you know Afterwards, you will know whether what you are doing now is meaningful.”

Hermione was a little annoyed at first that she didn't check the history of the house-elves, but after hearing about it, she became a little angry. "Alberta, don't you agree with me doing this?"

Alberta expected that Hermione would think so, and said: "Before you fully understand something, don't jump to conclusions. No matter what it is."

Hermione froze for a moment, then suddenly calmed down.She apologized, and then hurried to check the information.Alberta also returned to her seat and continued to read the book.

I don't know what Hermione found out in the end, and Alberta didn't hear any more news.And the time passed quickly. Since that class, Moody has never asked Alberta to demonstrate or answer questions in class. He is more ignoring.

After class was over one day, Alberta saw that the notices about the time of the other two schools coming to Hogwarts to participate in the Triwizard Tournament had been posted.

- The Beauxbatons and Durmstrang teams will arrive at 10pm on Friday 30 October.

Of course, to everyone's delight, get out of class ended half an hour earlier that day.Especially fourth year Gryffindors, oh, and Slytherins were kind of excited too - there was Potions class that afternoon.

In the next week, most people seemed to be infected with a highly contagious virus, talking about the Triwizard Tournament all the time, guessing who the Hogwarts warriors were, Beauxbaton and Dems What's different about Trump's people, what will it be compared to, and that sort of thing.

Not only the students were very excited, but also the house-elves. They tried their best to clean Hogwarts, not letting go of any corner. It seemed that a little bit of dust made them unacceptable.A few grimy portraits had been cleaned up, the armor had been polished to reveal figures, and the floor seemed to have been waxed.At the same time, the dishes on the long table are more abundant every day, and you can even see dishes from different countries from time to time.Apparently, the house-elves put a lot of effort into their food, too.

Finally, when October 10 came, Alberta went to the auditorium for breakfast early in the morning and found the change.

Huge scrolls hung from the walls—red Gryffindors with a golden lion, blue Ravenclaws with a golden eagle, yellow Hufflepuffs with a black badger, and green ones Slytherin with a silver snake, and behind the long tables of the professors, there is a larger badge of the representative of Hogwarts.

And that whole day, almost everyone seemed absent-minded, of course, almost, because there were different people, including Alberta.Although she was very interested in the other two European magic schools, she had no interest in the Triwizard Tournament at all.She doesn't need to use the reputation of the Triwizard Tournament to add luster to herself, not to mention, the high death rate in the Triwizard Tournament is not for fun.Now that she understands this, she won't join in the fun like a brat.As for what kind of warrior will be selected in the end, she doesn't care.

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, all the people who were in class rushed out of the classroom, went back to the dormitory to put away their schoolbags and textbooks, and then went to the designated place to wait in line for the representatives from the two schools to come.

When Alberta got to the front of the castle, basically all the Hogwarts students were there.Pansy beckoned, beckoning her over.She had no choice but to go against the team.

At this time, there were no clouds in the sky, the pale translucent moon hung in the night sky, and the evening wind was blowing, making it a bit cold.

Alberta tightened her cloak and quietly cast a warming spell on herself.

"Oh, Alberta, you are so late." Draco muttered, but quietly moved aside to give her a little more space.

The chocolate-skinned boy also frowned slightly, and asked with concern: "Alberta, you don't wear a little light clothes, aren't you cold?"

"No, I cast a warming spell." Alberta hooked the corners of her lips, thanking Blaise for his concern.

At this time, Pansy paid a little attention to the two schools that did not know how they would appear in front of them, and said to Alberta at the same time: "Originally, Dad thought about sending me to Beauxbaton Those who go to study, you know, most of them recruit girls."

"Oh, come on? My dad thought about sending me to Durmstrang. But in the end, because Hogwarts is in England, I came here to study." Draco said.

While speaking, Dumbledore's voice came from behind: "Ah! If I'm not mistaken, Beauxbaton's team has arrived!"

After listening to his words, many students poked their heads out, wanting to find out what happened.

Then, they saw a huge object galloping from the dark blue sky, and it kept getting bigger and bigger.When the object finally came into view, they finally saw what it was - a powder blue carriage the size of a house, drawn by twelve rune horses, over the treetops of the Forbidden Forest, and finally arrived in front of them .

Almost everyone was frightened by the huge carriage and took a step back.

Then, the door of the carriage opened, and a boy wearing a light blue robe stepped out from inside. He groped for a while on the floor of the carriage, and then, a section of golden stacked stairs appeared in front of him.

A person who was bigger than most of the people present came out of the carriage. The lady seemed to be similar to Hagrid, but she was much more elegant than Hagrid. Her hair was combed back into a bun. The opal hung around her neck, and there was an opal ring on her hand, and she was dressed in a black satin robe.

Dumbledore began to lead the applause, and he kissed the lady's hand as a sign of courtesy as she passed. "Dear Madame Maxime, welcome to Hogwarts."

"Dumbledore, how are you?" The lady's voice was deep and elegant. Although Alberta and the others affirmed that she had giant blood, she was nothing like a half-giant like Hagrid.

Beauxbaton's representative students got out of the carriage one by one and stood behind their headmaster.There were about 12 of them, all wearing high-quality satin robes, no cloaks, and only a few of them wearing scarves, shivering in the night wind.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, their headmaster brought some frozen students into the warm Hogwarts.

Without keeping the Hogwarts people waiting, Durmstrang's representative team soon appeared.They appeared from the black lake. Something stirred in the depths of the lake, and the waves hit the muddy shore. Then, a huge whirlpool appeared in the middle of the lake, and a strange ship appeared on the black lake just like that .

"Is it similar to the space transfer of apparition? But isn't Hogwarts prohibiting apparation? Or is the principle different?" Alberta stared at the black lake and muttered to himself.

While she was thinking, Durmstrang's representatives had disembarked and walked up to them.Their headmaster walked up to Dumbledore enthusiastically and said hello, "Dumbledore, how are you? My dear fellow, how are you?"

"Very well, Headmaster Karkaroff."

Later, the headmaster called a student over, and someone recognized the student—it was Viktor Krum!Seeker for the Bulgarian team!

Many people were shocked when they heard the news. Some of them took out the things in their pockets and wanted Klum to sign them—oh, Alberta saw that some girls took out lipsticks and handkerchiefs— Some regretted not bringing a camera to take this rare picture.

"Oh, Merlin, are these people crazy?" Pansy complained to Alberta as she took her usual seat on the long table.

And Draco on the other side of the Albert Tower didn't seem to hear Pansy's words at all, he just tiptoed slightly, his eyes followed Krum's figure, just like other fanatical fans.

The students of Beauxbatons had already sat at Ravenclaw's long table, but Durmstrang, where Krum was, hadn't sat down yet. They hesitated for a while, and chose the Slytherin long table with the least number of people.

As it happened, Krum was sitting opposite Draco.

"Hey, good evening." Draco greeted Krum excitedly in German.

Krum, who was opposite, didn't seem to expect that someone would greet him in German, and a smile appeared on his somewhat gloomy face. "Good evening, sir."

Draco was even more excited when he got the response. He leaned forward and lowered his voice slightly to make himself look aristocratic.

Although Alberta could understand German, she didn't pay attention to the conversation between the two of them. She noticed that there were four more chairs on the long table of the professors, which meant that apart from Beauxbaton and German Armstrong's principal, and two referees.It's just that the two of them haven't appeared yet.

After Dumbledore spoke, dinner began.The plates in front of them were piled with food, more abundant than ever, and the house-elves, in order not to lose face, prepared not only the food that everyone loved in the past, but also a lot of German and French food.

"These house-elves..." Pansy seemed to want to say something, but stopped after half a sentence.Alberta guessed that she probably wanted to say that those house elves would actually make these food for outsiders, but she didn't say it when she thought that she also enjoyed it.

A Beauxbaton girl who had sneered when Dumbledore spoke before, took off the turban that had been on her head at this time, revealing her shiny waist-length blond hair underneath.With a blink of her big dark blue eyes, many boys accidentally knocked over the cups and plates on the table.

Miss Pansy, who has always been venomous, couldn't help it anymore, and said: "Huh, he is just a guy with Veela blood. His hair is not as beautiful as Draco's, let alone Your Highness. How ugly is he?" Dare to show off here, who does she think she is? Who knows if she will be selected as a warrior."

Veela was originally a lowly magical creature. In some nobles with a long history, they would even prepare one or two Veela when the family members were about to receive sex education, in order to prevent being calculated by those who were interested in this aspect.

Draco, who was used by Pansy as a comparison, straightened his face after hearing this, and said, "Pansy, apologize to me. Malfoy does not allow others to compare such a lowly magical creature with a noble Malfoy. Even if you It's my friend, and that's not okay."

Pansy apologized graciously.

The conversation between the two of them did not lower their voices. In such an environment, although the girl didn't hear it, most of the Durmstrang students sitting opposite them heard it.Durmstrang originally worshiped power, so he looked down on magical creatures like Veela, so they all laughed knowingly after hearing this.

And that girl actually walked to the Gryffindor long table and took a plate of fish soup from the savior Potter's friend Weasley.

"Stupid. How dare you set a target for yourself," Pansy commented.

Alberta nodded in agreement.She also noticed that when the girl did that, the other Beauxbaton students who came with her looked uncomfortable, as if there had been some friction.The Ravenclaw students had already taken out parchment and quills and started writing.The Hufflepuff students were also whispering to each other, as if they were discussing something.Slytherin and Durmstrang didn't react, but ate their dinner quietly.Only Gryffindors stretched their necks, as if they had never seen such a person in their entire life.

The author has something to say: If you don’t take painkillers, your tooth still hurts.But taking painkillers, I am afraid that I will gradually become immune to painkillers.Now I take a painkiller, and it can last six hours without pain.

Wisdom teeth will definitely have to be pulled out, but as graduation is approaching, I don’t want to have them pulled out here at school. It’s better to go home because I’m familiar with the hospital in my hometown after all.
