[Comprehensive British and American] Guide for wizards to eat and wait to die

"Hey, has the school finally found out that the Defense Against the Dark Arts course is useless and is going to withdraw it?"

Emma looked at the empty staff desk and half-jokingly said to Harry.

"Maybe they didn't find the right candidate!" Hermione, who had been focusing on her studies, seemed a little anxious.

"Ann, look at how calm Dumbledore is, you won't fail to learn new knowledge." Emma patted Hermione on the shoulder, unexpectedly causing a small splash of water.

The weather was terrible today, and everyone was drenched when they came in from outside the school, not to mention being attacked by Peeves water polo on the way.

"I really sympathize with this year's freshmen. Enrolling in such a harsh environment left a shadow in my heart." Emma twisted her sleeves again, and a chill immediately spread throughout her body.

As if to match the weather outside, black and purple clouds rolled on the ceiling, and with a burst of thunder outside, various forms of lightning flashed across the ceiling.

If the function of the ceiling is not to block the bad weather outside, what is the meaning of its existence?

Emma was a little scared by the flash of lightning, she quickly lowered her head.

"Okay!" Dumbledore cleared his throat and said, "Now that we have eaten and drunk enough, I must ask everyone to pay attention again, here are a few notices"

Emma raised her eyebrows. Even if she didn't listen to her, she would know that the content of the notification will not change for thousands of years. It is nothing more than that students should not go to the Forbidden Forest. There are a few more magic items that cannot be used this year. Students under the third grade should not Go to Hogsmeade. . .

Emma yawned, except that the Sorting Hat changed the song this year and the whole sorting ceremony was as boring as ever.

Just when Emma was bored and started playing with the tissue in her hand, she suddenly heard a breaking news.

"I also regret to inform you that there will be no House Cup Quidditch this year"

Ehhhhh?This is fun!

Sure enough, as soon as the old principal's voice fell, the hall was full of disappointed voices from the students.

"This is because a big event will start in October and continue throughout the school year," Dumbledore explained unhurriedly, "I'm sure you'll all have a lot of fun with it. Now I'm very happy to announce to you all ..."

"Crack----" A thunder exploded at the door, interrupting Dumbledore's speech.

Emma was attracted by the thunder, and found a tall figure standing at the door.He leaned on a long cane and was wrapped in a black traveling cloak.Then he took off his hood, revealing his scarred face.His most frightening aspect, however, is his eyes.

One of his eyes is small and normal, but the other eye is very big, round like a coin, and it is a bright bright blue, which is in stark contrast to the small black eyeball just now.

Not to mention that the eyeball was still rolling around in his socket. . .

Emma shivered again.

The stranger walked directly to Dumbledore, and after a brief exchange of words between the two, he sat directly on the teacher's desk.

"Classmates" Dumbledore's voice was very brisk, "Please allow me to introduce to you this semester's Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher——Professor Moody"

. . .

Is this the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?This looks exactly like Black Magic himself!

Emma looked around, and she was relieved that everyone was as confused as she was.

"Oh, let's continue the topic just now. As I just said, an event that has not been held for more than a century will be restarted. I am very happy to tell you that the Triwizard Tournament will be held at Hogwarts !"

"What kind of competition is this?" Emma immediately thought of a bloody event like a boxing championship.But seeing how excited the twins are, it must be some kind of fun match. . .

"The Triwizard Tournament was created some 700 years ago as a friendly rivalry between the three largest wizarding schools in Europe. The three schools are: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. Each school selects a warrior, and then three warriors compete in three magic items. The Triwizard Tournament is held every five years, and the three schools take turns hosting it. Everyone agrees that it is the friendship between young wizards from different countries. It was an excellent way—but then, the death toll was too high, and the Triwizard Tournament was interrupted.”

Look, what she just said, it really is a bloody match!

Cherish life and stay away from the game.

"Over the centuries, there have been several attempts to revive the Tournament," continued Dumbledore, "but none have been successful. However, we at the Department of International Magical Cooperation and Magical Sports at the Ministry of Magic believe that it would be wise to try again." The time has come. We have done a lot of work this summer to ensure that no one's life is in danger. In October, the Headmasters of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang will lead their carefully selected contenders, The selection of the warriors will take place on Halloween. An impartial judge will decide which students are most qualified to compete in the Triwizard Cup, winning honors for their schools and a thousand Galleons for individuals.”

"I want to compete!"

Emma heard Fred shout again, and she couldn't help drawing three black lines on her forehead.

How short of money is he?

When everyone was clamoring to sign up, Dumbledore spoke again, and the auditorium fell silent again.

"However, the participating schools and the Ministry of Magic agreed that there should be an age limit for this year's competitors. Only students who are 17 years old or older—that is, students who are 17 years old and above are allowed to register"

His blue eyes lit up meaningfully as he glanced over the rebellious faces of Fred and George: "Therefore, if you are under 17, I beg you not to waste your time applying."

Emma cast a sympathetic look at the twins.

Although Dumbledore is getting older, his hearing is still as good as ever. . .

"Durmstrang?" Ron looked excited.

"What's the matter?" This made Emma a little curious.

"Krum is a student of Durmstrang!"

"Eh?" Emma's eyes widened.

"Can you imagine! Krum might come to Hogwarts!" Ron was completely in the state of "Krum's little fan".

"Actually, I can..."

It looks like this year is going to be another bloodbath.
