Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones
Chapter 635 Christmas Ball
Horace Slughorn's introduction to Salazar Slytherin was both expected and unexpected.
After all, he is over 1.8 meters tall, has a long beard, is skinny, wears a dark green robe that was made a thousand years ago, and has a pair of sunglasses that cover half of his face. Anyone can guess his identity.
At the same time, since almost everyone present knew Horace Slughorn's temper, it seemed to be expected that he would invite Salazar Slytherin——
The only thing that surprised them was that Horace Slughorn could actually recruit Salazar Slytherin.
After all, Salazar Slytherin had always lived in seclusion, and except for a brief appearance at Cornelius Fudge's inauguration ceremony as President of the Magical Federation, he never appeared in public at other times.
Even inside the Hogwarts campus, students bumped into Salazar Slytherin only a handful of times.
"It's an honor to meet you all here." After Horace Slughorn finished his opening speech, Salazar Slytherin also took a step forward, raised the wine glass in his hand, and spoke in a hoarse voice.
Said in clumsy English.
"Destiny is so wonderful and tricky." Salazar Slytherin said with a hint of sadness, "I never thought that after parting ways with some of my old friends, I could come back in this way.
Here, back to Hogwarts, back to the place we have devoted our lives to."
"At that time, we were still young, we were still full of passion, and the ideals and ambitions in our hearts were still burning. We hoped to build a sanctuary for our wizards..." Salazars
Litling paused, then shook his head and denied, "No, more than that, that's too light a statement."
"We want to build a kingdom of God for wizards, a Garden of Eden, a country where we wizards can live permanently." Salazar Slytherin said, "This is where the differences between me and them come from...
.We had some arguments about the general direction of the experiment, and eventually we parted ways, with them doing their experiment and me doing mine."
"Now I have the opportunity to see our creation a thousand years later." Salazar Slytherin said again, "We can say that we failed, or we can say that we succeeded..."
"We failed because the Hogwarts we created did not become what we expected, it did not become a kingdom of God, and it did not become a Garden of Eden."
"But...this place has become Prometheus...this place has become the fire of our entire wizarding world." Salazar Slytherin said passionately, "Look at you, look at
Look at your seniors!”
"Those are the shining stars in the wizarding world, the light of hope that illuminates the dark night!"
"I wish you a bright future." Salazar Slytherin raised the glass in his hand and drank it in one gulp.
Crash--
There was thunderous applause from the audience, and even Professor Trelawney, who had been complaining to Harry and Luna, couldn't help but applaud.
"Do you think... could Mr. Slytherin's speech be written by Tiera?" Luna, who was also applauding, tilted her head and asked Harry.
"How is that possible!" Professor Trelawney heard Luna's question and retorted, "This must be Mr. Slytherin's heartfelt thought. He is indeed a great wizard!"
"I don't know how much taller than Tiera who stole my student."
Then, Professor Trelawney muttered silently again.
...
"What's going on? Why are there so many Tieras?" Amid thunderous applause, the three dropouts from Durmstrang quietly left their dance partners and retreated together.
The person who asked the question was Avgegrunia, the boy with short black hair.
"Could he have noticed something?" Lomon Losov Kulakin, the boy with blond hair and a hooked nose, also said nervously.
"He must have noticed something." Sergei Ivanov said in a low voice with a gloomy face.
"Then what should we do?" Avgergrunia asked in a panic, "Should we go find Slytherin? This is the best opportunity!"
"Go, we must go." Sergey Ivanov said decisively.
"But Tiera has..."
"He has noticed it a long time ago!" Sergei Ivanov interrupted what Avdegrunia might have said, and then frowned, as if he was quite disappointed with the courage of his follower, "
You don’t think it’s a coincidence that he assigned us to the same dormitory as himself, do you?”
"Don't think of others too stupidly, Avger!" Sergey Ivanov reprimanded with a slightly harsh tone, "He must know our past, He must know everything about us! So let's start from the very beginning.
and fell under His watch."
"Sergey, what should we do?" Lomon Losov Kurakin asked with a trembling voice.
"If two Siberian white bears fight each other, one of them will be injured!" Sergey Ivanov said a Russian proverb.
"Sergey, you mean..."
"Don't say it!" Sergey interrupted in time, "Let's go, let's go and toast Salazar Slytherin."
"He knows our past and our ambitions." Sergei Ivanov said, "Then it is normal for us to go up and talk to Salazar Slytherin under such circumstances.
..... He even said... It would be abnormal if we didn't come forward to talk at this time. As for the rest..."
"Let's just be careful about testing." Sergey Ivanov sneered, then picked up a glass of champagne from the table next to him, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, "We all drank tonight, and between our words
If there is anything inappropriate, He will forgive us... After all, we are regular students here."
"Okay Sergey!" Lomon Losov Kuragin said boldly, as if he had regained his courage in an instant, and then started to move forward.
——But was grabbed by Sergei Ivanov.
"What are you doing?" Sergey asked urgently.
"Not..." Lomon Losov Kuragin replied doubtfully.
"How does it go like this?" Sergey frowned and said, "First find your dance partner, dance, drink a few glasses of wine, and then we'll get together... act more naturally."
"Okay, Sergey!"
...
At the same time, what the trio of dropouts didn't know was that in the eight-story tower of Hogwarts, in the principal's office, Dumbledore, who had not attended the dance, and Tiera, who had not attended the dance, were sitting face to face playing wizard chess.
.
Their chessboard is very strange. It is not a traditional wooden chessboard, but a chessboard that looks like a wave mirror. Each grid reflects a scene from the Christmas ball downstairs, Sergei Ivanov, Romon
The scenes that Losov Kuragin and Avdegrunia just discussed are also on the same chessboard.
In addition, there are scenes of Draco Malfoy and other students whose elders in the family have taken refuge with Voldemort.
